“Then I’ll go out!”
Nodding to Ji Mo, Ning Xiaofei turned to exit his office and returned to her table.
She took out her laptop from her backpack and prepared to write a plan, but as soon as the computer turned on, a push notification from a certain entertainment website popped up. She moved the mouse to turn it off, but when she saw a windbreaker picture on the ad above, her fingers paused.
Damn, why did she forget such an important thing!
She grabbed the cell phone and hurriedly called the Lanting apartment number.
A moment later, Miss Liu’s voice rang.
“Miss Liu, this is Xiao Fei. Did you see a silver-grey trench coat in the living room?”
“Silver-gray trench coat? Is it yours?”
“Not mine, it’s a man’s trench coat.”
“Are you talking about the one that the young master was wearing early this morning?”
Ning Xiaofei wanted to cry without tears. She quickly ended the call and searched for Mu Tianye’s phone number. After several times of consideration, she finally got up and fled all the way to the bathroom. And then pressed the call button.
While listening to the ringing tone, her little heart pounded.
It’s over!
“Madam, is anything the matter?”
It wasn’t Mu Tianye who answered the phone, but Zhou Tao.
“Assistant Zhou, Tianye … Is Tianye there?”
“President Mu is holding a press conference and it is not convenient for him to answer the phone now. Do you want me to pass a message, or I will just let President Mu call you back later?”
Press conference?
There's got to be something wrong!
“So … how long will it last?”
“It should be over at most half an hour.”
“Okay, then I’ll call again later.”
Ning Xiaofei hung up the phone in a panic, raised her hand and grabbed her hair.
At the other end of the phone, Zhou Tao set Mu Tianye’s mobile phone aside and turned his attention back to the podium.
At this point, a reporter at the conference had been named by Mu Tianye and stood up to ask questions.
“President Mu’s market investment this time, does it mean that your business will shift in this direction in the future?”
“The kind of industry in business doesn't matter. What matters is whether the benefits are substantial. This has always been my principle.”
“There has been anecdotal news that the second phase of the shopping mall project has entered into occupancy agreements with many luxury brands around the world. If I had searched correctly, this trench coat you're wearing today should be the latest spring collection of one of the brands, which is a far cry from your usual fashion. Does this have any special significance?
Mu Tianye nodded, “Yes. Our goal is to make the New Century a Champs Elysees in Asia.”
“Thank you very much for your answer, and I must say, you look dashing today!”
Laughter erupted from the audience.
On the stage, the man had a rare smile on his lips.
“Thank you.”
Seeing that he seemed to be in a good mood, the reporters became more and more enthusiastic about asking questions. The original 15-minute questioning time was extended by five minutes.
When Mu Tianye exited, a reporter spoke boldly.
“President Mu, can we take some full-body photos of you?”
Zhou Tao was about to step on the stage, and at the same time he gestured to the security guard and prepared to escort him.
Much to his surprise, Mu Tianye, who walked towards the steps, played the game and cooperated. He stopped and turned to the press room, a clear show of his acquiescence.
Though he made no deliberate posture, compared with his usual indifference, this flattered the reporters.
For a while, the flash kept on.
Zhou Tao stopped under the steps, staring at his own master, who remained calm and coolheaded on the stage. His brain refused to recognize this bolt out of the blue, so he then turned to look out the window.
No, the sun has risen from the east!
M Notes: Xiao Fei is in deep trouble!! hahaha
