âPresident Shan, donât take this small matter to heart. If it werenât for you, 1 might have no children now.â Dong Peng was still grateful to Shan Yue from the bottom of his heart. This was because she had saved his sonâs life twice and could be considered the savior of the Dong family. âHeâs been clamoring to learn how to drive from you after his injuries recover.â
âOf course thereâs no problem. Learning how to drive is a small matter. Thereâs still a long time in the future. There will be plenty of opportunities for him to learn. However, we still have to prioritize our bodies for now. We have to recover well. Once our bodies collapse, weâll have nothing.â
The two of them chatted briefly after meeting to kill time and wait for Zhou Xuanâs arrival.
After drinking half a cup of tea, footsteps could be heard in the corridor outside the office.
âShan Yue, Iâm here with the gownâ¦â Zhou Xuanâs tone was light, but he was halfway through his sentence when he noticed that Shan Yue was not the only one sitting in the office. Dong Peng was also there.
With the sweet relationship between Shan Yue and Zhou Xuan, Dong Peng seemed like an outsider here. This forced him to swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth and put on an ordinary face again.
âWhat a coincidence. Why is President Dong here today? Could it be that youâre looking for President Shan for something?â Zhou Xuanâs tone returned to normal, but it was not as cold as before. âThe bosses of three companies in our Federationâs Central City are actually gathered here. This is indeed a rare thing.â
As the boss of the company, Dong Peng was naturally very concerned about the real-time hot news, so he also knew the relationship between the two of them.
In order to prevent Zhou Xuan from misunderstanding, Dong Peng hurriedly explained, âPresident Zhou, donât think too much. President Shan said that he wanted to discuss the future plans of the various companies, so I came over.â
Dong Peng smiled. â1 thought you already knew that we were all here.â
âIâm the one who called the two of you over. After all, the situation in the Federationâs Central City is getting less and less optimistic for us. I think itâs necessary to pay attention in advance.â
Before Zhou Xuan could speak, Shan Yue spoke first. âSince everyone is here now, letâs talk business first. It wonât be too late to talk about private matters later.â
Shan Yue deliberately dragged her tone. As she spoke, she looked at Zhou Xuan, who was still standing at the door.
The moment their eyes met, Zhou Xuan immediately understood the meaning. She had called him over on the phone just now. Firstly, he did need to send the gown over. Secondly, she had called him over to discuss something, but she did not say the second thing.
âUncle Dong, youâre being too polite. Weâve been friends for so many years and are already familiar with each other. How could I misunderstand you?â
Zhou Xuan quickly reacted and did not let the situation fall into an awkward situation. âItâs just that we havenât seen each other for a while. I was a little surprised to see you when I came in.â
âIf someone else called me today, I definitely wouldnât even go. After all, I, Dong Peng, am not someone anyone can order around.â
Dong Pengâs slightly wrinkled face curled up. âBut President Shan is different. As long as President Shan calls me, Iâll take the time to come over no matter how busy I am. Itâs only because her ability and temperament are unparalleled among her peers.â
âAlright, alright. Why are you talking about me again? Whether itâs my ability or my experience in doing things, Iâm not worth mentioning in front of the two of you.â
Although Shan Yue was not embarrassed, she still waved her hand. âLetâs not continue wasting time. The two of you are not idlers. Letâs get straight to the point.â
After saying that, Zhou Xuan placed the gift box in his hand on the sofa and sat beside Dong Peng.
âI believe the two of you have learned through some information channels that the Yang Corporation is about to replace the Gao Corporation and enter the Federationâs Central City to develop. The first thing they will do when they enter is definitely use various methods to make themselves famous and establish their brand advantage. There are only the three of us here, and there are no outsiders. Iâll make things clear to everyone..â
