Chapter 595: Chapter 595 Capable Secretary_1
Tongcheng.
Li Qing parked his motorbike downstairs at the Lü Family Restaurant and then stepped inside.
He was now well acquainted with this place.
Personnel from the Lü Family Restaurant, top to bottom, were also intimately familiar with this friend of the boss who always rode a three-wheeled bike.
Greeted by a chorus of hellos, Li Qing walked into Lü Zong’s office.
No one was there.
Li Qing had no choice but to phone Lü Zong and inquire where the boss, who would normally be here, had gone off to today.
Turns out, he was in the middle of a tussle with the people from Tongcheng Winery!
Lü Zong had basically negotiated the acquisition of Tongcheng Winery, but there was still some disagreement about the specific price.
Today, they were haggling at Tongcheng Winery to settle on a final price.
Lü Zong joked about the fight, but to Li Qing, it sounded like an actual fight.
Negotiations over a corporate acquisition between two big companies were proving to be even more intense than haggling in a vegetable market; listening to the commotion, Li Qing felt that they were almost coming to blows.
"Qingzi, take a seat first, enjoy some tea, and we’ll have dinner together when I come back in the evening," Lü Zong said briefly before hanging up.
Sitting idle here didn’t appeal to Li Qing; it’d been quite some time since he had last seen Lu Furong and Sister Hu.
Now was the perfect time to pay them a visit.
Li Qing put away his phone, ready to leave when a striking figure suddenly walked in.
"President Li!"
The woman’s hands were clasped politely at her waist as she graciously bowed to Li Qing.
Li Qing was slightly surprised; this was the first time he had received such respect.
He suddenly felt like a real boss.
The woman was none other than Shangguan Yu, the secretary assigned to him by Lü Zong, with captivating, seductive eyes.
"Lü Zong isn’t here; I’m just leaving, we’ll talk when he gets back," Li Qing said.
Shangguan Yu quickly replied, "President Li, Lü Zong just called me and asked me to make sure to take good care of President Li first."
"There’s nothing to take care of. I’m not really a guest right now; you do your work, don’t mind me. I’ll drop by later," Li Qing said with a smile.
"President Li, please, give me a chance. At least let me make you a cup of tea, and you can go after you finish it," Shangguan Yu pleaded.
"It’s really not necessary," Li Qing responded, his mind still on meeting Lu Furong for a ’noodle battle’.
Having tea was nowhere near as fun as playing with Lu Furong.
"President Li..." Shangguan Yu called out sweetly, "Just let me make one for you."
Li Qing was left feeling torn between laughter and frustration; why was she insisting on making him drink tea?
Lü Zong’s habit of hospitality was rubbing off on his staff in a way that wasn’t particularly good; it’s odd to insist on serving tea to guests.
With no choice, Li Qing sat down. "Alright, alright, you make it then."
"Thank you, President Li!"
With a charming laugh, Shangguan Yu lifted her skirt slightly and sat down across from Li Qing.
Today, her attire and makeover were very traditional.
Her black, lustrous hair was piled high on her head, held simply with a jade pin.
She was wearing a pale green cheongsam with ink-wash motifs that gave off a simple yet elegant vibe.
And besides, the cheongsam really accentuates the figure.
The high places rise loftily, quite majestic, while the narrow places are tucked seamlessly, delicate and slim.
Shangguan Yu deftly fiddled with the tea set, asking softly, "What tea would President Li like to drink?"
"Anything is fine." Li Qing was sending a message to Lu Furong and replied without much thought.
"Then I’ll go with Longjing tea, it’s refreshing and elegant, nourishing for the lungs and brightening for the eyes. President Li, you often stay up late, this tea might be somewhat better for you," Shangguan Yu said with a light laugh.
Li Qing just smiled casually.
With his current physique, staying up late couldn’t do much harm.
Lu Furong replied with a barrage of shrew-like, top-tier curses.
Having not visited for so long, this woman that Li Qing had forcefully awakened was angry.
And the consequences of Lu Furong being angry were indeed terrifying.
Others might just talk the talk, but she could make it real, saying she wouldn’t give in to Li Qing anymore could possibly mean she really wouldn’t.
"I didn’t mean to not look for you, it’s just that I’ve been really busy recently!" Li Qing braced himself and explained.
Lu Furong was probably waiting with her phone for Li Qing’s message at that moment.
No sooner had Li Qing sent his message than her reply pinged back, "What are you so busy with? Being busy flirting with other women, shallow and deep?"
Li Qing was speechless; having many women was great, except there just wasn’t enough time.
If left dangling for a bit too long, he had to spend considerable effort explaining.
"I’ve recently partnered up with Lü Zong to create a new line of wines, there’s a lot to do. If I had time, how could I not come see you? I wish I could be held by you every day, let your stunning figure squeeze me dry," Li Qing shamelessly began his ass-kissing.
But the effect was quite good.
Lu Furong’s tone noticeably softened a lot, "You little rascal, I bet you’re just tired of playing and don’t want to anymore!"
"How could that be? Your exquisite body and secluded gate, no matter how much I conquer, I never get enough," Li Qing said.
"Shut it, come over tonight if you’re free. The one at my house has gone on a trip and won’t be back for a few days," Lu Furong said.
Li Qing was immediately overjoyed upon hearing this; he had finally managed to appease her.
"Aren’t you lonely being home alone?" Li Qing asked.
"Listen to this crap talk; it doesn’t make a difference if you don’t come, does it matter if I’m lonely or not?" Lu Furong said disdainfully, "I know what you’re thinking. I’ll call my cousin, you bastard, how did I ever fall for you."
Li Qing’s spirits immediately soared; Lu Furong had even started to take the initiative.
It looked like his efforts over the past while hadn’t been wasted.
"I didn’t mean that, just asking, just asking," Li Qing said, modestly backing down a bit with a smile.
"So I shouldn’t call her?" Lu Furong immediately changed her tune.
"No, better call her. I really have been quite short on time recently, and it’s been a while since I’ve visited your cousin," Li Qing honestly replied.
"You’re full of it, pretending with me here," Lu Furong replied.
Although through the phone, he couldn’t see Lu Furong’s expression, Li Qing could almost imagine her pouting.
Just then, Li Qing suddenly felt a smooth foot glide onto his thigh.
With only the two of them there, there was little doubt as to whom the foot belonged.
Li Qing made no response, just silently taking in the sensation, curious to see what this woman would do next.
Shangguan Yu lifted her eyelids slightly, a coy smile in her eyes as she looked at Li Qing, her foot slowly moving to his waist.
"President Li, are you not quite satisfied with your secretary?" Shangguan Yu asked softly.
Li Qing liked assertive women, he remained calm as he watched Shangguan Yu, "If you’re a capable secretary, of course I’ll like you!"
