My Billionaire Exhusband Grovels Me After Divorce-Chapter 474 - : Clearly, He is Her Smitten Suitor
Chapter 474: Chapter 474: Clearly, He is Her Smitten Suitor
Song Zhu was taken aback, momentarily losing his voice.
Looking at his stunned face, Qiao Yin sighed slightly.
She didn’t want to mention the divorce either, but she was afraid that Song Zhu would misunderstand her character and believe that she was involved with Shengling Group, which could affect their future collaboration.
Moreover, she might need to have work discussions with Song Zhu in the future. If they run into Lu Lingche again, and he says something harsh or does something excessive, it would be better for Song Zhu to be prepared.
“Doctor Song, please don’t take his words to heart. He always speaks without considering others’ feelings. I’m sorry that our discussion was interrupted by his appearance tonight. I hope this won’t affect our future collaboration.”
Song Zhu finally regained his composure: “It won’t affect our collaboration, Doctor Qiao, don’t worry.”
Qiao Yin gave him a light smile: “That’s good, then. Let’s continue our discussion about operations tomorrow. I have a few good ideas that we can discuss.”
Song Zhu was momentarily dazed looking at her faint smile.
“I’ll leave first then, Doctor Song, see you tomorrow.”
Song Zhu nodded subconsciously: “See you tomorrow.”
Qiao Yin took one last glance at a box on the second floor, where Lu Lingche still stood. She looked away, got into her car, and left.
At the floor-to-ceiling window, Lu Lingche’s fingers tightened slightly around his wine glass.
Looking at Song Zhu’s distraught face, staring in the direction where Qiao Yin left for a long time without moving, he couldn’t help scoffing.
Qiao Yin was certainly capable. She’s just divorced him, and now she’s flirting with one man after another!
Friend?
Clearly, he’s an infatuated suitor!
There seemed to be a burning fire in his heart, nearly dismantling Lu Lingche’s rationality, pushing him to abandon the dinner, drive to find her, and confront her about eating alone with men.
Fortunately, he managed to control himself in the end.
He sat back down and continued discussing terms with the person opposite him.
The person he invited for dinner today was Jiang Ke, a person in charge of the Huakui Public Project.
The Huakui Project is a government initiative, mainly for environmental management, solving problems of soil and water pollution and waste disposal.
The project budget is 30 billion, a significant prize that many companies covet.
Such projects are usually taken by the Eastern Empire Group due to their capabilities and close ties with the Cui Family.
Shengling Group previously didn’t touch such projects, firstly, because the control of Eastern Empire was too tight, and secondly because Lu Shengqing, being more mild-natured, didn’t enjoy competing for others’ projects when he was CEO.
Now with the aggressive and predatory Lu Lingche as CEO, it doesn’t matter who controls the project – he’ll seize it regardless.
Also, because he lost two projects to Dongfang Mu, he needed to seize more projects from Eastern Empire, with Huakui being just the beginning.
Although the Cui Family has significant official power, they’re not as strong in environmental protection.
Sitting opposite Lu Lingche, Jiang Ke, the Environmental Bureau Chief, had no connection to the Cui Family. In fact, he had been suppressed by them in the past.
This was a good opportunity for Lu Lingche to make a breakthrough.
The dinner and negotiations went on for an hour and were rather smooth.
When he left, Lu Lingche had obtained an extra document.
The document, prepared by his assistant, was the details about Song Zhu.
Sitting in his car, Lu Lingche casually flipped through it before tossing it aside.
“Shensong Hospital?”
“Yes, President Lu, Song Zhu is the son of the hospital director of Shensong Hospital. The hospital just changed its name; it used to be called Qingzhu Hospital.”
“Never heard of it.”
“It’s a private hospital on the brink of closing down. It seems that Miss Qiao is collaborating with them.”
