“Ah!”

As he watched the others get into the car and drive away, Qiu Wenyu let out a heavy sigh.

The attitudes of those people had become unchangeable, which confirmed that Shengda Literature would definitely be acquired by Penguin Investments. It was now just a matter of how much money was involved.

One reason he didn’t want Penguin Investments to acquire it was that Shengda Literature was his creation; he had poured so much of his heart and soul into its development to this point.

Shengda Literature was like his child.

Naturally, he didn’t want to hand his child over to someone else.

Moreover, he knew from Penguin’s previous acquisition cases that if Shengda Literature was indeed acquired by Penguin Investments, they would surely send someone to act as the top manager.

Then, Shengda Literature would no longer be under his control.

Future developments at Shengda Literature would not be decided by him.

…

Shengda Literature, operations department.

It was already five o’clock, nearly time to leave work.

Zhao Yulu finished her tasks and planned to go to the restroom before leaving work.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Just then, her mobile phone on the desk rang.

Zhao Yulu saw a strange number displayed on the incoming call screen.

“Hello,” Zhao Yulu answered the phone.

“Hello, may I speak to Ms. Zhao Yulu?” It was a woman’s voice.

“Who is this?” Zhao Yulu asked.

The voice was unfamiliar; it probably wasn’t someone she knew.

“Ms. Zhao, do you still remember a traffic accident that occurred on Jiangcheng pedestrian street three years ago? At that time, you pulled a woman back, saving her life,” the woman said.

Hearing this, Zhao Yulu immediately recalled the incident.

It was a weekend day, and she was shopping on the pedestrian street with Xu Yang.

A car had careened out of control into the pedestrian street, sending many people flying.

Noticing the anomaly, everyone scattered to get out of the way.

But one woman, as if frozen by fright, stood in place and didn’t move.

At that time, Xu Yang had gone to buy milk tea and wasn’t beside her.

Seeing the car about to hit the woman, Zhao Yulu ran over and pulled her away.

It could be said that, if not for her pulling the woman away, the woman might have died or become disabled.

The woman was extremely grateful to Zhao Yulu.

Zhao Yulu didn’t think much of it and told her it was nothing.

Just then, Xu Yang came back in a hurry with two cups of milk tea and quickly asked if Zhao Yulu was injured.

Zhao Yulu didn’t talk much more with the woman and continued shopping with Xu Yang.

Could this woman be that same woman?

With this thought, Zhao Yulu couldn’t help but ask, “Are you that woman?”

“Yes,” the woman said, “Ms. Zhao, I was only making a brief stop in Jiangcheng that year, so I didn’t find you at that time. Later, I was very busy with my career and had no chance to come back to Jiangcheng. Today, I’m in Jiangcheng and would like to invite you to dinner as a token of my gratitude. Are you available?”

“You already thanked me back then; there’s no need to be so formal. I just did what I should have,” Zhao Yulu said.

“Then let’s have dinner as friends, is that okay?” the woman asked.

“Alright,” Zhao Yulu replied helplessly, agreeing to the request.

“I’ll add you on WeChat later and send you the time and place for dinner,” the woman said.

“Okay,” Xu Yang nodded.

After ending the call, it wasn’t long before Zhao Yulu received the time and place for the dinner, along with the woman’s name, Han Mengting.

Zhao Yulu put down her phone and went to use the restroom. By the time she came back, it was almost time to leave work.

At that moment, a female colleague with black-framed glasses sitting nearby said, “Yu Lu, a few of us new colleagues were talking and thought we’d go have hotpot at Hai Di Lao tonight. You’re free, right?”

The girl with the black-framed glasses had started work at the same time as her.

Coming in with her were three other people.

New colleagues often have a lot to talk about.

Gathering for a meal together is quite normal.

Under normal circumstances, Yu Lu wouldn’t refuse such a dinner invitation.

But just now, Han Mengting had called to invite her for dinner, and she had already agreed, so naturally she couldn’t go to the dinner with the other colleagues.

“Min Min, I’d like to join you for dinner too, but I’ve already made plans to eat with someone else, so I can’t join you this time. Let’s do it next time, we’ll gather next time,” Zhao Yulu said.

“You’ve made plans already? With whom? A man or a woman? Is it that Tao Yingjun who asked you out?” the female colleague with black-framed glasses asked with a face full of gossip.

In their group of new hires, there were five people, three women and two men.

Among the women, her and another female colleague were quite average in looks and figure, while Yu Lu stood out the most.

She caused a sensation as soon as she arrived at the company.

The news that a very beautiful girl had joined the operations department spread quickly throughout the company.

On that very day, a man came over to invite Yu Lu for a meal.

That man’s name was Tao Yingjun, and he was said to be the son of one of the company’s vice presidents.

There was no denying his family’s wealth; it was just that he wasn’t very good-looking, not matching his name at all.

Yu Lu didn’t accept his invitation, and even after he approached several times, she refused every time.

Could it be that Yu Lu had softened and agreed?

“Don’t talk nonsense, I’ve made plans to dine with a female friend,” Yu Lu looked at her colleague somewhat speechlessly.

“Really?” the female colleague with black-framed glasses blinked and asked.

“Of course it’s true, why would I lie to you?” Yu Lu gave her colleague a look.

After chatting for a bit, it was time to get off work.

The other three new colleagues came over, and Yu Lu explained the situation to them.

They understood and said they’d gather another time since there would be plenty of opportunities.

The group left the company together.

Stepping out of the building, they saw a crowd gathered at the entrance.

In the middle stood a young man dressed in luxury casual attire, holding a bouquet of roses in his hands.

“It’s Tao Yingjun!”

“What is he doing here?”

“He’s not going to publicly confess his love to Yu Lu, is he?”

“With the way he’s staring at Yu Lu without blinking, he definitely is!”

“Yu Lu, seize the opportunity, that’s the vice president’s son right there.”

Seeing Tao Yingjun’s gaze fixed on Zhao Yulu, the colleagues stepped aside.

Tao Yingjun, holding the bouquet of roses and wearing what he considered a charming smile, walked towards Zhao Yulu with deep affection.

Seeing this guy, Zhao Yulu frowned.

Ever since she started working at Shengda Literature, this guy had been pestering her.

She had already unequivocally rejected his dinner invitations several times, and her intention was very clear.

Yet to her surprise, he had made this public display.

“Yu Lu, the moment I saw you, I fell deeply in love. I never believed in love at first sight until I met you, and now I believe that love at first sight really exists in this world. I love you, be my girlfriend, I will make you the happiest woman in the world,” he proclaimed.

Coming up to Zhao Yulu, Tao Yingjun offered the roses with both hands.

His face bore what he believed to be a charming and gentlemanly smile.

This was his signature smile.

No matter how others saw it, he thought this smile was handsome and liked by women.

Being the son of a vice president at Shengda Literature, many women at the company were interested in him, and some even took the initiative to get into his bed.

As for those women, he was not one to refuse if he liked what he saw.

And if he found someone especially beautiful, he would take the initiative to pursue.
