Chapter 123: Empty Cart

he stones could be more gentle, the visual effect would be better. Think about it again."The student quickly replied, “Okay, thank you, Teacher Gu.”Then the phone fell silent. She looked at the group..."In my lifetime, I actually get to experience the joy of an empty shopping cart. Thank you."

She is a very easy person to please.

“What else would you like to experience I can help you make it happen.” he asked earnestly.

"No, not yet. I'll let you know when I have something in mind."

"Okay, you can ask for more."

"Okay, these packages will arrive tomorrow, you're in charge of unpacking them." Hundreds of packages, that's quite a workload.

"OK."

Zhuo Yu'an thought, "What kind of courier could be hard to open" He didn't think much of it. The next day, as soon as they got up, the property manager came knocking with a cart. The first batch of couriers had arrived - only 20 or so, but they filled the entire elevator lobby.

Zuo Yu'an frowned.

"What did you buy"

He emptied his shopping cart yesterday without looking closely, thinking all the items were little things for young girls or cosmetics.

The result... is not. Besides small things, there are some pieces of furniture that need to be assembled.

Shu Tinglan, the culprit, was surprisingly calm and unremorseful. He was dressed to impress, stood on his tiptoes, and squeezed out of a pile of goods with disdain as if he were leaving for an important event.

"Sorry, I'll trouble you to sort these things out. I have a meeting with Whale Finance today."

Zuo Yu'an...

He, a man who handles thousands of affairs daily, is stuck in a pile of express deliveries. He has to obey his wife's orders and cannot ignore them. As long as he takes time off to sort the express deliveries, it is said that there are dozens more on their way.

Hmph, women, sometimes you can't coddle them too much.

Shu Tinglan took a taxi all the way to Tingjing Finance. Director Xiao and Zhou Ming arrived shortly after. Unexpectedly, Lu Kuo was also there. At this moment, he was wearing a suit and tie, with glasses on, looking like a proper gentleman, mingling among the crowd.

A girl with long hair stood beside him, looking proud and haughty. She seemed unwilling to be by Lu Kuo's side.

Lu Kuo saw Shu Tinglan, came over to greet him, and took the opportunity to introduce...

"This is Lu Yaoyao, my sister."

Lu Yaoyao pouted and glanced at her, as if acknowledging her presence.

"Dumbfounded Not even a 'sister' for me Either call me sister-in-law, because sooner or later you'll have to anyway." Lu Kuo said.

Shu Tinglan

Lu Yaoyao

Director Xiao and Zhou Ming

Lu Kuo was just a bit too flirty, always saying things ambiguously. Lu Yaoyao was also raised like a younger sister by Zhuo Yunan, so if you really wanted to be technical, calling Shu Tinglan "sister-in-law" wouldn't be out of line.

But everyone, no one knows it's because of Zhuo Yu'an's relationship. Even Shu Tinglan doesn't know, she doesn't know that Lu YaoYao also calls Zhuo Yu'an brother.

I thought it was Lu Kuo making trouble again.

"Sister-in-law" Lu Yaoyao didn't believe it. The whole family knew her brother was a hopeless romantic. For so many years, he had only been chasing after that one woman, making their mother, her aunt, furious. Before she passed away, she told her brother to go on dates and get married, but he refused. Now, how could he possibly like another woman

This time, it's said that Whale Finance is going to acquire Huahua La. It's rumored that this is in preparation for Lu YaoYao, the little princess, to enter the entertainment industry. Shu Tinglan looked at Lu YaoYao. The girl was beautiful, but she wore all her emotions on her sleeve. Is this kind of personality really suitable for the entertainment industry

She had never paid attention to the entertainment industry before, but thanks to this project, she learned a bit about it while researching Huahua Entertainment.

But the entertainment industry seems to be very fond of the "rich, beautiful and kind" and "genuine personality" archetypes now. Perhaps one day they will truly become famous and successful.

Thinking this way, she looked at Lu Yaoyao with unavoidable gentleness and friendliness.

Lu Yaoyao's skin crawled, this woman was poisonous, wasn't she Did she really think she could be her sister-in-law

With Lu Kuo present, the staff of Listening Whale Finance showed great respect to Shu Tinglan. Lu YaoYao felt resentful about this.

"You're the one who placed people here while Old Man wasn't in Senzhou, right If he finds out, you're done for." Like Lu Kuo, calling him "Old Man" means not calling him "Dad."

"Such a small thing, does it need to alarm your old man Don't blame me for reminding you, be nice to your sister-in-law, or otherwise if she gets unhappy, the consequences will be serious."

Lu Yao yao scoffed.

This preparation meeting will end soon. Shu Tinglan and Zhou Ming, the director of the office, returned home after fighting back, and then held another internal meeting at the law firm, listing the key points of this project.

"First, confidentiality is paramount because it involves numerous well-known celebrities. No information can be disclosed to the outside world before a formal acquisition contract is signed."

"The second point is about the artist's contract issues. It's important to investigate thoroughly. How much longer do all the artists have on their contracts with Huahua La These artists are Huahua La's most valuable assets."

The third point is, what projects are currently running on Huahua, and how long do their contracts last

“Other qualifications are also a key concern.”

"Director Xiao, Teacher Zhou, these are the key areas I currently think need to be investigated. Do you have any other suggestions"

Shu Tinglan had already listed them quickly.

Xiao Zhu and Zhou Ming listened without objection.

That's all for now.

Director Xiao asked again, "Are you really dating Lu Kuo If so, I suggest you keep a low profile." Director Xiao has always been against such flamboyant displays of affection.

Zhou Ming also looked at her thoughtfully, waiting for her answer.

"There's really nothing. Lu Kuo just likes to joke around." Shu Tinglan felt that besides Cheng Chen, only Zhuo Yu'an could control Lu Kuo. After work, he was going to ask Zhuo Yu'an to have a good talk with him.

"What about Mr. Zhuo What's your relationship with him" Zhou Ming had an answer in his mind, but he was still not convinced and wanted her to confirm it personally.

Shu Tinglan wasn't good at lying. Caught off guard, his face flushed red, but he couldn't tell them he was married. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer.

Xiao, the director, understood: "Still fond of Mr. Zhuo You're such a naive girl."

"You are truly stubborn."

In their hearts, compared to Lu Kuo, Zhuo Yunan was less practical.

Shu Tinglan felt a bit guilty for not telling them about it, thinking that she would wait until things were more stable with Zhuo Yu'an before revealing anything.

Halfway through, Zhuo Yu'an sent me a WeChat message with over a dozen pictures. The pictures showed the living room and hallway, with mountains of express deliveries piled everywhere. He looked utterly defeated in the photos.

"Come on!" Shu Tinglan stood and spoke without backache, sending a cute cheering emoji.

There was no guilt, let alone sympathy.

Only Zhuo Yu felt heartache for himself.

After a while, Shu Tinglan remembered Lu Kuo, this free labor. Hmm, only Zhuo Y uan could manage him. She immediately sent a text message:

"Lu Kuo is very free now... You might as well ask him for help..."

Zhuo Yu'an smiled, agreeing with him.

Call Lu Kuo.

“Come to my house.”

What's up

"Drink!"

He lies without blushing or batting an eye.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!d the misunderstanding between the two, nor did she know it was because of her. She originally wanted to use Ruan Ruan to ease the tension between Lu Kuo and him, but seeing them like this, she obedie...
