Lu Yuqing did not expect those words coming out of Jiang Yao’s mouth. She tapped Jiang Yao’s head and said, “Why do I feel like I have a daughter now?”
And then she laughed. “I don’t think Mr. Huang is old, at all. He’s only around thirty years old, right? How sad will he be if he hears what you have to say?”
As for Jiang Yao’s notion that Huang Chengjing had ulterior motives, Lu Yuqing chose to stay silent.
She had seen people from all walks of life, even more so than Jiang Yao, and could easily discern the good characters from the bad ones.
Her only blunder came in the form of Zhao Zhuangzong.
She was very much aware of Huang Chengjing’s intention, but she did not want to acknowledge them. She did not need a man to do great things in the world, and she did not plan to look for one, lest he impeded her freedom.
Sometimes, perhaps being alone was the better, at least it brought fewer troubles.
Thus, she did not immediately give an answer to Huang Chengjing. She wanted to find out more about him, whether he was a reasonable man who could distinguish his private life and work life.
However…
Lu Yuqing rested her gaze on Jiang Yao. “You said that Mr. Huang was trying to steal me away from you, why? You wanted me to work for you?”
“I am planning to set up a pharmaceutical manufacturing company and a research lab. After knowing that you left your previous job, I have plans for your expertise in accounting.” Jiang Yao chuckled. “Being a professional, you are the perfect person for the job.”
Jiang Yao looked at Lu Yuqing with expectation in her eyes. “The major ventures of setting up the pharmaceutical manufacturing company and the research lab are fully supported by Xingzhi.”
Lu Yuqing was stunned.
She knew that Lu Xingzhi was involved in making Jiang Yao the biggest shareholder of Shengqi Hospital and was not surprised by the turn of events. Moreover, seeing Jiang Yao’s concentration on her academics had her presume that everything was arranged by Lu Xingzhi.
It was no surprise that Lu Yuqing was shocked to hear of Jiang Yao’s business ideas.
Handling money was her line of work and Lu Yuqing knew that Jiang Yao’s ventures would cost upward of a hundred million.
What was more shocking was the fact that Lu Xingzhi fully trusted a nineteen-year-old girl to make all the decisions.
“This is not the right time to discuss, I’ll tell you more about it during the weekends.” Jiang Yao ended the conversation when she saw Huang Chenchen and Chairman Huang heading their way.
“Sister Yuqing! Sister Yaoyao!”
Huang Chenchen escaped her grandfather’s grasp the moment she saw the two ladies and ran toward them.
“Slow down, you don’t want to fall!” Lu Yuqing hurriedly caught the little girl and gave her a little piece of her mind.
