Chapter 376: Chapter 376: Not Try, It’s a Must!_1

Noon, twelve o’clock.

Luo’s Group Chairman’s office.

Dressed in black, Old Lady Luo sat at her desk, holding a document in her hands, her face filled with smiles.

Opposite her sat three people – notably Luo Yuantu, Luo Xuanran, and Luo Zitong.

"Not bad, Yuantu, you’ve done very well!"

Old Lady Luo said with a beaming smile, "If it weren’t for you taking the lead in stabilizing the staff at Tian Sheng Group, the projects at Jie No, Wei Kang, and Gao Yuan wouldn’t have been wrapped up so quickly."

"Now that the construction sites are operating normally, we just need to ask them for the advance payment at tonight’s banquet, and also tentatively plan the next projects."

However, Luo Yuantu was like a piece of wood, sitting dumbly below, his eyes empty, as if pondering something.

"Dad! Dad!"

Luo Xuanran quickly nudged his father and said softly, "Grandma is calling you!"

"Oh."

Luo Yuantu squeezed out a smile and responded, "Mom, what did you just say? I was thinking about something here and didn’t hear clearly."

"You’re thinking about tonight’s banquet, right?"

Old Lady Luo smiled faintly and waved her hand, "Don’t worry, Jie No’s Director Li, Wei Kang’s Director Wang, and Gao Yuan’s Director Tu have all decided to attend, and Tian Sheng Group’s Secretary Wang will also be there."

"At that time, just follow my cues when you speak. On one hand, tell them that Luo’s Group has good construction quality and has been recognized by many customers, and on the other hand, hint indirectly that they should arrange to pay us part of the advance for the project."

"Especially Tian Sheng Group, the Secretary Wang they’re sending this time is highly valued by Ling Yuzhu. Xuanran, you and Secretary Wang are both young. I hope you can get closer to her, even if it means using some tactics!"

This was a necessity, as Luo Ning used to be the link connecting Luo’s Group and Tian Sheng Group.

Although it had been claimed publicly that Luo Ning was on leave and not yet resigned, one can’t wrap fire with paper – the truth of her resignation would eventually come out.

Given Ling Yuzhu’s temperament, upon learning of Luo Ning’s resignation, she definitely wouldn’t give the subsequent projects to Luo’s Group.

Hence, Old Lady Luo hoped to employ the honey trap, letting Luo Xuanran hook up with Secretary Wang so that, with Secretary Wang whispering in Ling Yuzhu’s ear and considering the previously pleasant collaboration, even if they couldn’t get all of the second phase project, they could still secure a few tens of millions in share.

Unfortunately, they were oversimplifying the matter.

Let alone whether Secretary Wang would take a fancy to Luo Xuanran, who was average in both looks and talent, even if she did, Ling Yuzhu wouldn’t change her decision because of a private secretary.

Besides, Ling Yuzhu was only following orders, and above her was the elusive Chairman.

"Alright, Grandma, I’ll do my best," Luo Xuanran nodded and promised.

Old Lady Luo’s eyes widened, and her tone grew heavier, "It’s not about doing your best. You must succeed!"

"Securing Secretary Wang is the only way our Luo’s Group can soar to great heights!"

As she spoke, her eyes lingered on Luo Zitong and she began, "And you, Zi Tong! You’re not the naïve girl you used to be. For Luo’s Group to grow, we must have strong backing!"

"As a member of the Luo Family, Zi Tong, you can no longer just chat with young people like before. You must fully leverage your advantages and communicate more with our business partners to establish good cooperative relationships."

"Even if they’re as old as your father or nearly my age, you have to learn to greet them with forced smiles. Understand?"

The meaning of her words couldn’t be clearer: she expected Luo Zitong to serve as Luo’s Group’s social butterfly, dealing with decision-makers of various industries and ages.

Luo Zitong pouted, unwilling to comply.

Why can her brother pursue the young and pretty Secretary Wang while she has to attend to those ancient clients?

But seeing Grandma’s voracious eyes, she just pouted and suppressed the words in her heart.

Seeing that her granddaughter didn’t talk back, Old Lady Luo was satisfied and smiled, gesturing broadly,

"Alright, meeting adjourned!"

...

Meanwhile, at South City Police Center.

A weary Luo Ning sat on the armchair, anxiously awaiting the outcome.

Since morning, she had inquired thirteen times, but each response was still "under review."

"Sigh!"

She sighed, covered her face with her hands, her mind blank.

Ding-a-ling...

At that moment, her phone rang with a call from an unfamiliar number.

Luo Ning adjusted her mood and answered, "Hello, who may I ask for?"

"Hello, is this President Luo from Chenxi Design Studio?"

A crisp and pleasant female voice came from the other end, "My name is Liu Yuanxi. I saw you were hiring a designer on the internet. May I come for an interview?"

A studio? An interview?

Damn, how could I have forgotten about this!

Luo Ning smacked her forehead. From last night until noon today, she had been preoccupied with looking for her mother, completely forgetting about the recruitment notice she posted online.

She cleared her throat and quickly replied, "Miss Liu, our Chenxi Studio hasn’t opened yet. If possible, please send your resume to my email, my email address is..."

"Okay!"

Over the phone, Liu Yuanxi eagerly agreed, "I will send my resume over later."

Hanging up, Luo Ning supported her cheek with her right hand, her eyes blankly staring at the police center lobby.

If her mother would stop causing such chaos from now on, her studio might be able to get off the ground.

But if it remained the same as before, with daily mahjong sessions running late into the night at twelve, or even causing trouble like now, how could she open her studio...
