Chapter 77 - 77 76 This Man She Can't See Through_1

?77: Chapter 76 This Man, She Can’t See Through_1 77: Chapter 76 This Man, She Can’t See Through_1 Heaven surely favors Lu Yinchu, blessing him with a mind for business, a good family, a mild temperament, and a handsome appearance…

Nanxi suddenly wonders, what kind of woman would be worthy of such a perfect man?

Or what kind of woman would he be fond of?

“What are you looking at?”

Startled by the cool masculine voice, Nanxi swiftly averts her gaze, trying to appear calm, but her face reddens slightly, “…Nothing, I wasn’t looking at anything!”

A smile creeps up the corners of Lu Yinchu’s lips, his bring crinkling ever so slightly.

He walks over to her, making Nanxi sit up straight.

Is he…

done?

“Sorry for keeping you waiting so long, I’ve been quite busy today!”

Lu Yinchu takes a seat a comfortable distance away and begins to converse.

Nanxi shakes her head, “No, it’s an honor that you can meet me!”

The man nods and hums in agreement.

It seems he is fine with her response.

Nanxi: “…”

“As for your request, Mo Yan has already told me…” Lu Yinchu says, “You want to advance a portion of the collaboration funds, and the amount isn’t small…!”

Nanxi bites her lip and tightens her grip on her hand joint, clearing her throat, “Well, the contract states that if Party B has a special request, Party A may advance part of the funds.

This money will be deducted from the profit ratio when the collaboration starts…”

Lu Yinchu squints his eyes, and grins, “Yes, your memory is quite good!”

Nanxi’s eyes flutter.

Not because of her good memory, but because she went with her uncle to sign this contract and made sure to clarify each clause to avoid any disadvantageous terms.

She has been deceived once already, hasn’t she?

Nanxi purses her lips, insisting, “So, this clause indeed exists in the contract, right?”

Lu Yinchu nods as if admitting.

Nanxi sighs in relief, “So Mr.

Lu, can I preempt part of the funding?”

Is it possible?

These three words are softer than before – like a breeze whispering in your ear, stirring emotions.

Lu Yinchu curls his lips and lights up a cigarette.

Nanxi becomes anxious, remaining motionless.

Lu Yinchu is thirty-two, ten years older than her.

His life experience and social skills are far more mature, making it necessary for her to hide her intentions in their dealings.

However, Nanxi doesn’t want to do that.

In dealing with people, there’s only one model: sincerity begets sincerity.

Nanxi considers herself always sincere, but when facing Lu Yinchu, she doesn’t want to have too much interaction with him.

Nanxi doesn’t understand what kind of man Lu Yinchu is, but if she were to describe him in one word, it’d be ‘inscrutable’.

Of course, she never intended to understand him.

If anyone can easily see through such a high-ranking individual admired by countless people, that person must be very important to him.

After a few drags from his cigarette, Lu Yinchu’s silent demeanor makes Nanxi nervous.

If it’s a test of patience, Nanxi is not afraid.

But Qiaoqiao is still waiting for her, she truly doesn’t have time to steal with him…

“Mr.

Lu…”

“Nanxi…”

Both of them speak almost simultaneously, and then fall silent in unison.

“You first…” Lu Yinchu’s expression is gentle, he flicks away the ash, the mild scent of tobacco mirroring him – mellow and enduring.

Nanxi says, “Mr.

Lu, the thing is, I know you might feel a little embarrassed, so I can consider this money as a loan to you.

I’m about to graduate and I’m job hunting.

I can sign an agreement with you that once I get a job, I can give you fifty percent… no, seventy percent of my salary…”

Nanxi pauses, then continues, “I just hope, Mr.

Lu, you… won’t reject me.

And please don’t ask why.

I really… need this money!”

The man’s gaze flatly meets hers, he remains silent, but his silence causes Nanxi to lose heart!

Those who are acquainted with Nanxi all know that she isn’t one who typically expresses herself.

Weihuan jokes that she has a language barrier, lacking courage when speaking to strangers, but when with familiar folks, she feels words are often unnecessary.

Many things can be conveyed with just a look or a gesture.

And what about Lu Yinchu?

Not exactly familiar, but not a stranger either, she is unsure about how to deal with him.

However, before she came over, she never planned to ask him for a loan.

It seems that something is deviating from her course…

Why is this happening?

The man continues to be silent, his deep gaze firmly locks onto Nanxi, then, just before she can discern his thoughts, he quietly retreats.

He exhales a puff of smoke, and says through the haze, “Nanxi, did you come here today as an acquaintance asking for my help?”

Nanxi is taken aback, her fingers automatically clenched on her knee…

what does he mean?

The man laughs, “Don’t be so nervous, being considered as an acquaintance, even if we aren’t friends, it pleases me!

Nanxi, I remember I told you that, I’m just an ordinary man!”

But he isn’t ordinary in Nanxi’s eyes!

Nanxi chokes a bit, she doesn’t speak, only lowering her eyelashes nervously!

“I have a commitment later.

I’ll give you an answer about this in two days.

Is that okay?

Nanxi!”

Nanxi looks up at him, his voice is very soft, softly enough for Nanxi to be a little incredulous.

An answer in two days?

Is he considering…

agreeing with her?

Nanxi feels slightly dazed, and simultaneously a little excited.

As long as there is hope, it’s good, isn’t it?

As long as there is hope, it’s never too late, is it?

“Well, is it okay?” The man asks again.

Nanxi quickly nods, “Yes, of course, thank you, Mr.

Lu!”

Nanxi stands up, bows respectfully to Lu Yinchu, her face blooming with a smile, her bright eyes like two black grapes, absorbing all of his emotions.

He purses his lips, a smile spreading in his eyes, wishing that her happiness can endure…

but…

As Nanxi again says “Thank you”, and gets ready to say something else, the office door swings open.

Mo Yan stands in the doorway, his gaze landing on the two people in the office before finally settling on Lu Yinchu, he respectfully says, “Director Lu, it’s time!”
