A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

"Hello, my name is Wang Ping. It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Li."

Wang Ping smiled, first wiping his palms with his sleeve, then extending a hand to her.

Li Xixue's gaze lingered on Wang Ping's face for half a second before she coldly uttered three words.

"Hello."

Just three words, and then my gaze shifted away.

He did not shake hands with the other party.

Wang Ping still had a smile on his face, but he was already half dead.

It's clear the other person has no recollection of it at all.

Seeing this, Wang Jianyuan quickly stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "Xiaoping just returned from abroad and is currently helping me manage the company's affairs. He will also be involved in today's meeting."

Li Xixue nodded and then remained silent.

As long as the contract is signed smoothly, it doesn't matter to anyone.

Just as Wang Jianyuan was about to continue his introduction, the other door of the van opened.

Lu Yang got out of the car, holding a document in his hand, and walked to Li Xixue's side.

Wang Jianyuan and Wang Ping both turned their gazes to Lu Yang. They looked him up and down; he was young, in his early twenties.

She looks like Li Xixue's assistant.

However, as far as Wang Jianyuan knew, Li Xixue's assistant should be a girl.

How did it turn into a man?

"Who is this?"

Wang Jianyuan asked with a smile.

Li Xixue didn't even turn her head, and casually said:

"My subordinate, Lu Yang, is in charge of the financial coordination for this project."

Wang Jianyuan responded with an "oh".

Since he's a subordinate, there's nothing to worry about.

Young people need to be taken out and given some experience; that's normal.

"Come on, it's hot outside, let's go inside!"

Wang Jianyuan greeted them and led the way into the lobby.

Several people entered the hotel's business negotiation area.

The place is nicely arranged; from the window side, you can see half of the bay, a large coconut grove, and further away, the beach and the sea.

The waiter served tea.

The four people sat down.

Li Xixue sat in the main seat, and Wang Jianyuan sat in the second seat.

In terms of seniority, although Li Xixue calls him "uncle," in the business world, whoever has the higher status is the one who is qualified to sit in the main seat.

Lu Yang sat closer to Li Xixue, while Wang Ping sat next to his father, leaning slightly towards Li Xixue.

"Xiaoxue, to be honest, I was thinking of visiting you in a couple of days, but I didn't expect you to come in person today. It's truly an honor."

Wang Jianyuan held his teacup, smiling sincerely.

"When I last saw your dad, he said you were very busy, and I was too embarrassed to say it."

Li Xixue picked up her tea and took a sip.

"Uncle Wang, you're too kind. I've looked at this project; the location and area are quite good."

"Right? Let me tell you, I've been eyeing this land for three years. I finally managed to acquire it last year with great difficulty. The planning for this area is about to be finalized, and the value of this land will increase..."

When Wang Jianyuan talks about projects, he talks nonstop.

We started by discussing the geographical advantages, then moved on to the surrounding infrastructure plans, and finally to the investment returns.

He spoke very logically and persuasively.

Lu Yang listened for a long time and silently went over it in his mind.

This project does have some value; it's located by the sea in a newly developed area.

In the long run, the potential for appreciation is not small.

But it wasn't so big that Li Xixue needed to make the trip herself.

Li Xixue nodded and looked at Wang Jianyuan: "I've read the first draft of the contract. There aren't any major disagreements on the terms. We can have the legal department handle the rest."

"Okay, okay."

Wang Jianyuan said with a smile.

The contract was discussed efficiently.

The atmosphere instantly became much more relaxed.

Moreover, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Li Xixue didn't want to talk about work anymore.

Wang Jianyuan picked up his teacup, took a sip, and then looked at Li Xixue with a smile.

"Xiaoxue, let's not talk about business today. Our two families have a good relationship, a few words won't make a difference."

"But there's something I've been wanting to ask you, but I've been too embarrassed to say it."

Wang Jianyuan rubbed his hands together, making a troubled expression.

"What is it?"

Li Xixue asked.

Wang Jianyuan hesitated for a moment: "Xiaoxue, I heard you don't have a boyfriend yet?"

puff!

Lu Yang had just picked up his teacup and taken a sip when he almost spat it out.

Li Xixue glared at him.

Then, without changing his expression, he asked Wang Jianyuan, "Uncle Wang, why are you suddenly asking this?"

"Hey, I'm just worried about you."

Wang Jianyuan waved his hand with a smile, "When I talked to your dad on the phone last time, he mentioned that you're still single, and he and your mom are so worried that several of their hairs have turned white."

Li Xixue's lips twitched slightly: "My dad is exaggerating."

"Hey, let me tell you, he wasn't exaggerating."

Wang Jianyuan smiled:

"Your dad sounded really anxious on the phone, saying all you do is work, work, work, and you don't even have anyone to eat with. Is that acceptable?"

"Uncle Wang."

Li Xixue spoke calmly:

"You don't need to worry about my personal matters."

The tone was polite, but the boundaries were clearly defined.

Any normal person would have stopped after saying that.

But Wang Jianyuan did not.

He came prepared.

"Sigh, I know you're busy."

Wang Jianyuan sighed deliberately and continued, "But speaking of which, look at Xiaoping."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ping subconsciously straightened his chest.

"Xiaoping, that kid, just came back from abroad last year and is now helping out at my company. Although he's a few years younger than you, he's reliable and sensible..."

Li Xixue interrupted in a cool tone: "Uncle Wang, just say what you want to say."

Wang Jianyuan was stunned. His original plan was to let things take their natural course and bring the two together.

He cleared his throat and decided to cut to the chase.

"Xiaoxue, what I really mean is, you two have known each other since childhood, and Xiaoping is single now. I think you two could get to know each other better, have a meal together and chat or something..."

talking.

He also exchanged a glance with his son.

Upon receiving the signal, Wang Ping quickly sat up straight and said, "Miss Li, we've known each other for so long, we can certainly chat more. If you have time, I can..."

"No."

When Li Xixue spoke, she coldly replied with three words, leaving no room for negotiation.

Wang Jianyuan's smile was starting to falter, but he was still trying to maintain the facade.

"Xiaoxue, don't be in such a hurry to refuse. It won't hurt to get to know her better. You're young..."

"Uncle Wang."

Li Xixue put down her teacup: "I already have a boyfriend."

As she spoke, she reached out and pulled Lu Yang, who was engrossed in eating, to her side, close to her chest, and took his arm.

"Let me reintroduce myself, this is my assistant and current boyfriend, Lu Yang."

"The main reason I came here in person is because he said he really wanted to go to the beach recently."

"As for this project, it was just something I happened to be doing."
