Chapter 565: Farewell, President Sheng
e simply ignored Luo Ningxi. As it neared quitting time, he asked the old house manager about Mr. Li's condition and learned that his grandfather was basically stable."Young Master Si, the hospital ap..."Hello, Mr. Mo"
"Miss Luo, about what you told me last time, I discussed it with Mr. Sheng, and he agreed to meet with you. So I'll have to trouble you to come to Shengshi once."
Lu Ningxi was delighted, "That's great, Mr. Sheng, I'm available whenever."
Mo Yao glanced at Li Bochen's schedule. "Then, how about 2 pm tomorrow afternoon Give me a call when you arrive."
"Thank you, Mr. Mo! I will be there on time tomorrow."
Mo Yao hung up the phone and sent a message directly to Li Bochen.
Mr. Li, Miss Luo has scheduled an appointment for tomorrow afternoon at 2 p.m. at Shengshi. Please be there.
The message had just been sent and Li Boche quickly replied.
I understand
This matter has become a big deal. Grandfather's side must have noticed something about the relationship between me and Shengse. You should handle this.
……
The next day, Luo Ningxi came to Shengshi Group with the Lu Group's data in hand.
Mo Yao took her to the top floor CEO's office directly via a private elevator.
"Miss Luo, Mr. Sheng is inside. You may go in."
Luo Ningxi took a deep breath and walked forward, gently knocking on the door.
"Enter."
It was that low, gravelly voice again.
Luo Ningxi walked into the office and saw Shengzong sitting behind his desk. His handmade suit was tailored to perfection, fitting snugly against his body. A mask covered his face, meticulously stitched to obscure his features, leaving it impossible to see what he looked like.
Luo Ningxi walked to Li Bochen's face, a confident smile playing on her beautiful lips, "President Sheng, long time no see."
Li Boche's gaze pierced through the mask, looking at her. He remained silent for a few seconds before faintly opening his lips, "Long time no see."
Their eyes met.
That familiar feeling washed over her again, unable to help but furrow her brow.
This gaze, it's so similar to Li Bochen's!
If she hadn't seen the two of them standing together last time, she would have almost been certain that Li Bochen and President Sheng... were the same person!
Li Bochen saw Luo Ningxi's stunned gaze, and a hint of obscure light flashed in his eyes.
"Miss Luo, what's the matter"
It wasn't until a man's deep voice spoke again that Luo Ningxi was pulled back from her daze.
What was she thinking about
The person before me is the CEO of Shengshi Group, a legend in the business world. He is completely different from Li Bochen, that playboy second-generation ancestor.
Luo Ningxi steadied herself and got straight to the point, "I'm here today to ask Mr. Sheng if Luo Shi Group's jewelry brand could participate in the jewelry show hosted by Shengshi."
"Luo's Group" Li Bichen's voice rose slightly at the end.
Luo Ningxi only thought that Shengzong didn't understand the situation of the Luo Group, so she sent the materials in her hand and explained immediately,
"The Luo Group has its own jewelry brand, but it hasn't been operated in recent years. I want to revitalize Luo Jewelry, so I hope that President Sheng will agree to the Luo Group participating in the jewelry exhibition and having an opportunity to showcase itself."
Luo Ningxi finished speaking and looked at Li Bochen, nervously awaiting his answer.
Li Bochen gazed at Luo Ningxi, taking in her every little movement.
The atmosphere in the office suddenly fell silent.
Li Bochem asked with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, "What capacity would Ms. Luo like to attend this jewelry show in"
His slender fingertips rested on the table, tapping lightly and rhythmically, producing a soft clicking sound.
"If my memory serves me right, Miss Luo is a freelance designer for VIC, our brand under Shengshi Group. But I wonder, Miss Luo, are you representing the Luo Group in this jewelry show"
Li Bochen's reminder caused Luo Ningxi's face to change slightly before she quickly regained her composure. "President Sheng, don't misunderstand. Luoshi Group has its own design team. I won't be involved in that. I just need a spot for Luoshi Group to participate in the runway show."
Miss Luo's guarantee couldn't sway me.
Li Boche's voice was low, but his tone was light and airy, putting Lu Ningxi under immense pressure.
"The Lo Group used to be a top player in the jewelry world, and my mother Shen Wanru's signature design is still there. More importantly, Lo has loyal, influential old customers with real power and status, its influence is still there."
Luo Ningxi's voice paused for a moment, her chin lifting calmly. "Such a win-win business, Mr. Sheng really wants to refuse"
Beneath the mask, the man's eyes were deep and dark, like whirlpools that could pull you in at any moment!
Luningxi met his gaze without flinching.
"With the current status of the Luo Group, these are just empty words."
Li Bochen's voice was deep and steady, with an aura of dominance that was overwhelmingly strong.
"Miss Luo, I helped you at the auction because I valued your abilities. I look forward to you proving me right with your actions."
Luo Ningxi's eyes were firm, "President Sheng, I will prove it to you."
Li Bochen watched Luo Ningxi's leaving figure, his bottomless eyes swept over a trace of gloom.
There's no such thing as a free lunch.
Getting into the show is not so easy.
……
As Luo Ningxi walked out of the office, she found Mo Yao still standing outside.
Moyao noticed that Loningxi's expression was a bit heavy and couldn't help but glance towards the office.
What did Mr. Li and Miss Luo talk about
"Oh, Mo Assistant," Luo Ningxi stopped her steps and looked at Mo Yao beside her.
"So, is Shengzong related to Li Bo... what's Li Si Shao's relationship to him Are the two of them close"followed the woman inside."Get to the point, I don't have much time for you."Li Boche closed the door, and with a click of the lock he secured it. He raised his eyes and spoke slowly."Luo Ningxi, is t...
