Just as Lin Shasha was about to reveal who it was, Manager Chen’s voice suddenly sounded, "What are you still chatting about there? Hurry up and get in the car!"
In front of them, Manager Chen had already driven the car over and rolled down the window, glaring at Ling Chuxia and Lin Shasha with dissatisfaction.
Lin Shasha shrank her head and dared not gossip with Ling Chuxia anymore; she quickly pulled Ling Chuxia into the car.
Ling Chuxia was left hanging by Lin Shasha’s unfinished words, her heart inevitably a bit uneasy. The major client from Liang City had quite an impressive background...
For some reason, Shi Che’s face uncontrollably surfaced in Ling Chuxia’s mind, and her hand clenched suddenly. The next second, she shook her head vigorously.
No, it couldn’t be—what was she thinking? Just because someone was from Liang City, did it have to be Shi Che? Weren’t there many other big companies and bosses in Liang City?
Besides... even if it really was about negotiating with the Shi Family, it might not necessarily be Shi Che who would come to talk—her current company, though also a large one, wasn’t really significant enough to trouble Shi Che.
She had decided to forget him, yet why did everything still connect to Shi Che somehow? Thinking about this, Ling Chuxia couldn’t help but smack her head.
Sitting beside her, Lin Shasha watched her face, which fluctuated from panic, to relief, to annoyance, then even to hitting herself. Wide-eyed, she blinked and said to Ling Chuxia, "Xiaxia, what are you doing? Don’t tell me you’re so excited that you’ve lost your senses?"
Hearing Lin Shasha’s words, Ling Chuxia quickly adjusted her expression, curling the corners of her lips into a smile. "No, it’s nothing."
To accommodate this important client, the company had booked a room at the most luxurious five-star hotel in the city. Manager Chen drove directly to the hotel entrance.
Five people got out of the car and walked into the hotel together; a receptionist led them toward the private room.
Lin Shasha, holding Ling Chuxia’s arm, looked around excitedly. "Xiaxia, the company really went all out this time! I usually only pass by places and never thought I’d be able to come in, let alone eat here. I’ll definitely take a bunch of photos later to share in my moments!"
Ling Chuxia didn’t feel much, though. To her, no matter how luxurious the hotel or lavish the residence, it was merely a place to eat or sleep.
Seeing how calm she was, Lin Shasha became a bit puzzled. "Xiaxia, why aren’t you excited at all? This must be your first time at such a place, right?"
When Lin Shasha asked this, Ling Chuxia suddenly didn’t know how to respond. She didn’t want to lie, but she also didn’t want to bring up the past, so she simply nodded vaguely.
"You really are so composed!"
Ling Chuxia slightly curved her lips, not knowing what to say, and just smiled.
As they entered the private room, the top client hadn’t arrived yet. Manager Chen asked them to sit first while she called to check.
The group casually pulled out chairs and sat down. Manager Chen took out her phone, about to dial, when suddenly the door to the private room was pushed open and a tall figure slowly walked in.
The man was handsomely featured and elegant in demeanor. His black bespoke suit fitted him perfectly, accentuating his upright posture. With each step he took into the room, the lighting seemed to create a halo around him.
