Having heard that, Lu Shao was taken aback a little. Then, he put on a slight smile and nodded at Su Ran. “Okay. I shall.
“Anything else?”
“Uh, for at the moment.”
“Okay. I will try my best to make those improvements,” said Lu Shao. His deep but staid voice allowed others to catch solemn vibe easily.
Su Ran was, nevertheless, baffled by his attitude.
She seemed to have spotted some subtext in his words but she wasn’t certain. An odd sensation flashed past her and Su Ran, as usual, chose to ignore it.
“Go back up.”
“Hmm? And you?”
“I’ll be on my way shortly.”
Lu Shao only drove away after he watched Su Ran went back upstairs.

Mr. Lu, who had returned home, seemed to be in a good mood.
Taking the opportunity that his employer was in a good mood, Zhou Fu quickly placed in front of Lu Shao the stack of documents that had stacked up over the last few days.
“Sir, these are the few projects that we have planned to launch recently. Please take a look at them.”
“Leave them here,” said Lu Shao concisely as he started on the documents.
“In addition, what are your thoughts on Shengteng Realty’s proposal on combining their Xinke District into our Nanan Development project?”
“That’s fine,” said Lu Shao as he nodded. Shengteng Realty wasn’t half bad. -
That was the respond that Zhou Fu had anticipated so he wasn’t surprised. After all, Shengteng had done his boss a solid.
In addition, consolidating their project into Nanan project would be profitable for the Lu family as well.
“Then…”
“What is it? Speak,” said Lu Shao as he looked up and raised his brows, noticing the rare occasion when his assistant was struggling for words.
“Uh, nothing. I just want to say that after we have looked into it, Shengteng’s Xinke project isn’t half bad.” Zhou Fu made up an excuse quickly.
What Zhou Fu had really wanted to tell his boss was that they had accepted Unit 1701 but he decided against it.
After all, his boss had declined Shengteng’s offer on giving the entire building to the Lu family to be used as dormitory for their employees.
“One more thing,” said Zhou Fu after some more thoughts.
“Speak.”
“The president of the Song’s had sent us an invitation expression their interest to meet with you,” said Zhou Fu as he produced the invitation from the Song’s.
The Song’s have had some difficult times ever since the Lu’s had swiped the Nanan project from them. That and the Lu’s made no effort in hiding the fact that they were exerting the pressure on the Song’s, President Song must got an idea by now.
They probably asked for a meeting because they had no idea what had brought all these on.
“Song ZeYu?”
“Yes.”
“No.”
“Okay.” Zhou Fu had expected that as well.

The Su family, on the other side.
Ever since Su Ran had been baffled by Lu Shao’s words, she had not pro-actively reached out to Lu Shao again with the exception of occasionally replying to his comment under her friend's circle.
More importantly, she had forgotten all about it.
The remodeling referred by Lu Shao arrived shortly and, as such, Su Ran had been busying herself with matters related to the remodeling.
Nevermind about reaching out to Lu Shao, even Su Ran’s time spent in her friend's circle had dropped sharply.
Su Ran thought it would be a while before she would think about Lu Shao.
Lo and behold, she dialed his number again merely a few days later.
“Mr. Lu, I am wondering if you are available over the National Holidays. I have a favor to ask…”
“Why? What is it?”
Lu Shao’s voice had never been more tender over the phone.
Su Ran was surprised.
She pulled her phone away from her ear so she could see who it was from and only placed her phone back over her ear after she confirmed that it was Lu Shao on the phone.
“Em, I need to travel for a few days early next month. Will you be able to look after Su Han for a few days if you have time?” asked Su Ran with some hesitation. That was a hint of awkwardness in her voice.
Having heard that, Lu Shao was taken aback a little. Then, he put on a slight smile and nodded at Su Ran. “Okay. I shall.
“Anything else?”
“Uh, for at the moment.”
