ssip. She covered her rapidly beating heart and hurried to leave, but she was pulled back by Yu Lin, who was beaming with excitement. "Xiaoyao, did you see! The new boss is so handsome, I suddenly wan...Fu Xiaoyao shook her head. "No need, my assistant will pick me up. Goodbye!"

After that, she took off her nurse's uniform and removed her mask.

While considering where to put these things, Shao Siniang proactively extended her hand, “Give them to me, I’ll take care of it.”

"Then, thank you." Fu Xiaoyao nodded slightly and handed him the clothes in her hand.

Then, she waved her hand and walked toward the elevator.

Soon, the hospital gate arrived.

Fu Xiaoyao stood at the door, looking left and right. She saw a black Maserati parked on the roadside in the distance. The corners of her mouth curled up, then she took out a pair of sunglasses from her bag and put them on, and walked towards the Maserati.

As she approached Martha, a woman in a business suit got out of the car and greeted Fu Xiaoyao respectfully, "Good morning, Director."

"Good morning!" Fu Xiaoyao smiled back.

This is her assistant, Lisa.

Lisa opened the back car door for Fu Xiaoyao, “Please, Director.”

Fu Xiaoyao nodded and bent down to get into the car.

Lisa closed the car door, walked around to the front, and opened the passenger side door to get in.

"Xiao Zhang, start the car!" Lisa said to the driver in the driver's seat.

Xiao Zhang responded with a sound, and started the car.

Fu Xiaoyao flipped through her phone, looking at it while asking, "Besides the Lu Group, what else do I have on my schedule today"

"Wait a moment, Director!" Lisa hurriedly took out her notebook from her bag and flipped it open, reporting her schedule for the day one by one.

Fu Xiaoyao pondered for a moment after listening, "Cross out the item about making a dinner reservation with Mr. Liu. Their company is currently heavily in debt and there's no way to save it. There's no need to waste time negotiating cooperation with them. In the future, we should directly decline such requests. Our company isn't a charity; we don't have to entertain every Tom, Dick, and Harry."

"Okay, Director," Lisa nodded and then took out a marker to cross out the itinerary she had just mentioned.

"That's all. Notify the Lu Group and tell them we're heading there now." Fu Xiaoyao looked at her phone without raising her head, giving a light instruction.

Lisa responded again, taking out her phone to contact Lu Group.

The Lu Group is having a meeting.

When Qiao Mu received the phone call, the meeting was just halfway through.

He glanced at Lu Hanchuan, and quietly exited the meeting room under his permission.

After a while, he hung up the phone and walked to Lu Hannan's side, whispering: "Mr. Lu, it was Shijia Energy Company."

"An energy company" Lu Hanchuan raised an eyebrow.

Jo Mu explained in detail, "Yes, it was a subsidiary established in City C a few months ago. Their research team developed a new energy source that can be used in cars to reduce exhaust pollution, and this energy source has been recognized by the state."

"I remember, they approached our group, right" Lu Hanchuan pondered for a moment and asked.

Qiao nodded, "Yes, they approached us last month hoping to collaborate. But that was the anniversary of the old master's death, so you left this whole matter to me and the head of the research department. Chen and I agreed to discuss the collaboration today, and they are on their way now."

"The company of the Shi family..." Lu Hanchuan muttered, his mind involuntarily recalling the woman he had seen last night.

That woman is from the Shih family.

"Who is the head of this energy company" Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes and asked.

Qiao Mu thought for a moment, "It's the second miss of the Shi family."

"Shi Yao" Lu Hanchuan looked at him.

Joe pushed his glasses up. "Yes, and the phone call just now was from her assistant, saying that she would be attending this meeting about the cooperation!"

"She'll be coming too." Lu Hanchuan's eyes flashed, and his fingers lightly tapped on the table.

After a few seconds, he pursed his thin lips, "About this cooperation, tell Director Chen that I'll go there personally."

"Huh" Qiao Mu was surprised, "You're going to talk to them personally But didn't you say..."

"That's it!" Lu Hanchuan waved his hand to interrupt him, "Go arrange it."

"Yes!" Although Qiao Mu didn't know why General Lu had suddenly changed his mind, he didn't ask any further questions and went along with it.

Half an hour later, the meeting ended.

Lu Hanchuan got up and walked out of the meeting room, heading towards the reception room.

Jo Mu guarded the door of the reception room. When he saw him coming, he hurried forward, "Mr. Lu."

"Has the guest arrived" Lu Hanchuan passed the file in his hand.

Joe took it, tucking it under his arm, "No, the director's assistant just called again. Said there was traffic and they'd be delayed for a while."

Upon hearing this, Lu Hanchuan frowned slightly, feeling a bit displeased in his heart. However, he ultimately didn't say anything and just hummed in response before walking into the reception room.

Qiao Mu looked at his back, her heart slightly surprised.

Lu Zong actually didn't get angry, he just walked away without turning back!

If a business partner had been late in the past, this collaboration would have definitely fallen apart given General Lu's temper.

This time, Lu Zong actually endured it. Could it be that Lu Zong values Times Group's new energy project so much

His mind raced a thousand thoughts, Qiao Mu swallowed nervously and quickly followed him in.

Another hour has passed.

Just when Lü Hánchuan was getting really impatient, the door to the reception room was knocked on.

"Mr. Lu, the guests have arrived!" The secretary's voice came from outside the door.

After asking Lu Hanchuan, Qiao Mu got up and walked to open the door.

The door opened, and the secretary greeted him with a nod before stepping aside to reveal the person behind her.

Joe initially had a professional smile plastered on his face, about to greet someone, but when he saw the person in front of him, his eyes widened instantly, "Wife..."

Hearing this long-lost address, Fu Xiaoyao's eyes flashed with a strange color, but she quickly regained her composure, feigning confusion as she raised an eyebrow, "Madam"

Qiao Mu didn't hear the alienation in Fu Xiaoyao's tone. He was a little excited, "Madam, is it really you"

"Mister," Fu Xiaoyao smiled, lowering her eyelids, "I'm afraid I don't understand what you're saying. I haven't gotten married yet, so how could I be the 'wife' you speak of Don't tease me."

Lisa, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but chuckle, "You must have mistaken her for your assistant. She's our director, not your wife."

"Not Mrs. ... " Qiao Mu was stunned.

"Yes!" Lisa nodded.

Qiao Mu was still a little skeptical and carefully examined Fu Xiaoyao.

How could this possibly not be the mistress Her appearance is exactly like hers.

If she were not my wife, how could there possibly be someone so alike in this world

He's a reader!

Seeing the persistence in Qiao Mu's eyes, Fu Xiaoyao frowned and said with a somewhat cold tone, "Sir, are you finished This kind of behavior is very impolite!"

"Oh, I'm sorry!" Qiao Mu came to his senses and apologized sheepishly. "I'm so sorry, you really look just like Madam, so..."

"Does it really look like that" Fu Xiaoyao narrowed her eyes.

Joe replied seriously, "Yes!"

"But I really am not the woman you're talking about!" Fu Xiaoyao smiled meaningfully.

Joe's lips moved, but he didn't speak.

Isn't she really the mistress

How is that possible!

This face, it's almost identical! There's no way this isn't the madam!

However, the aura she emanated and the icy look in her eyes were certainly not those of a madam.

Could it really be that he was mistaken

"Joe, assistant!" Lisa saw Joe spacing out again and waved her hand in front of his face.

Joe realized his mistake and quickly apologized again.

Although Fu Xiaoyao was touched that this person still remembered her, she calmly said to him: "Assistant Qiao, can we go in now"ince she's your friend, I'm doing this as a thank you for her care towards you."Fu Xiaoyao was surprised, her mouth agape. It took her a long time to find her voice, "So you did this for me""Anything...
