Qin Zhiyou ignored it all. Now, even Lu Ban himself couldn’t make him flinch, let alone Simon White standing in front of him.
Their main focus was on commercial real estate. Although top designers were often sought for their projects, it wasn’t about creating art or landmark buildings. So, their dependency on top designers was not significant.
If Simon White comes, then let him come. He surely doesn’t need to go out and greet him. After all, it’s no different if it’s not Lu Weixi who’s coming, it’s all the same to him.
His aunt would ask him if he brought a female companion, which was really asking about Liu Yiyi. He clearly knew that Lu Weixi didn’t care about what woman he had by his side, and he knew he should be making good use of Liu Yiyi at this time, to convince his aunt that he cherished her, to get her on board. Even if she doesn’t stand by his side, as long as she’s there, it would be enough.
He had prepared everything from clothes to boarding pass, but still, he just couldn’t do it.
For a moment, he felt a wave of fatigue wash over him. What then, even if he won completely over his uncle and aunt, and took over Hanhai Group forever? Who would he share the empire he’d fought for with, play extravagantly with Ms. Yang?
It was now summer, and the sunset time at sea was especially late. The banquet was about to start, and on the distant sea horizon, there seemed to be a trace of a fiery afterglow. Qin Zhiyou remained seated in this position, motionless and silent.
Outside the door, the hairstylist and stylist both were anxious. With less than half an hour left until the banquet, their host was still sitting here unmoving.
Secretary Wang’s phone rang. One look and it was from the stylist. They had been waiting outside the door for half an hour already, but Qin Zhiyou hadn’t let them in yet. Secretary Wang cautiously mentioned, “Mr. Qin, the makeup artist and others are waiting outside, the banquet will begin in half an hour.”
Qin Zhiyou heard it, but he acted as if he had not. He kept his head down, fingers lightly spinning his ring. Every few minutes, he would check his phone to see if anyone had contacted him. Other than that, he kept sitting with his back to the door, his swivel chair not moving an inch.
Secretary Wang was helpless. No one in the world could persuade Qin Zhiyou once he became obstinate. Unless the person was Lu Weixi. But Lu Weixi wasn’t on the ship and their relationship had always been a respectful one.
When Qin Zhiyou was unhappy, his subordinates would be even unhappier. Soon, not only the makeup artists and stylists were waiting outside the door, but the company’s high executives had also come over. Even through the door, they could hear their low and intense discussion.
A few, depending on their seniority, dared to knock on the door, “Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin, the banquet is about to start.”
Inside the door, Secretary Wang also began to persuade, “Mr. Qin, whatever the problem is, we can deal with it later. You should go and attend the banquet first. If Mr. and Mrs. Second Master and young master Zhi and Miss Mei see it, they would laugh at you. They have been busy contacting people since they came aboard. If the old master learns of this, he’s likely to get angry.”
Qin Zhiyou heard it all, and not even an eyelid twitched. Some people called him, but most of them called Secretary Wang. Secretary Wang was anxious too. But the master made no response at all to everything he heard.. What could he do? Have someone kidnap him to the banquet?
