Chapter 101 -101 Waiting for the Late Person_1

In the top-floor meeting room at this moment, silence filled the space. Everyone was glancing at one another, then shaking their heads at the only empty seat.

Meng Can slightly furrowed his brows. Although he didn’t outwardly appear too anxious, only he knew how worried he was. When he had left, Summer had already gone to fetch the documents—how come she was still nowhere to be found at this time? What could have happened?

He really wanted to make a phone call to ask why she hadn’t arrived yet, but with so many people watching, it wasn’t appropriate for him to do anything.

Meanwhile, Wen Lingya was staring blankly at Su Wanxia’s seat, her expression indecipherable, leaving others clueless about her thoughts.

Ji Hua, seated to the right of Mu Yingchen, also felt a sense of urgency. Checking the time, it was already 10:03 a.m., but Wanxia was still not present. Did she not realize how important today’s meeting was? To actually be late—could it be that she got into another confrontation with his elder brother, causing her to deliberately arrive late?

However, he soon dismissed this idea; it probably wasn’t as he thought. Even if she was upset with his elder brother, based on his understanding of Wanxia, she would never let it affect her work.

Mu Yingchen sat at the head of the table with an expressionless face. He didn’t announce the start of the meeting, nor did he inquire why Su Wanxia’s department hadn’t come, just sitting there coldly without uttering a word.

With him silent, those below dared not speak either. They could only look around, waiting quietly.

But at the same time, they were secretly shocked; such a situation was unprecedented. Normally, if anyone were a minute late, they might as well not bother entering the meeting room because, even if they did, they would be ignored and then wait to be reprimanded.

Yet today, although he wore a stern face, there wasn’t a hint of anger, and it almost seemed as though he was waiting.

For a moment, no one even remembered who was supposed to sit in that empty seat, a person for whom Mu Yingchen was actually waiting—truly unexpected.

Standing behind Mu Yingchen, Aisha and Bai Yudie both stared at him, as if waiting for him to give some sort of command.

But Mu Yingchen remained silent from beginning to end.

Aisha was not as surprised or amazed as the others because she knew who the late person was. To this, she had grown somewhat accustomed; Miss Su was always the exception for President Mu.

However, Yudie felt indignant inside. Why should everyone wait just because she was late? Why did Brother Chen always favor her? What was so special about her?

While everyone was lost in their own thoughts, the door to the meeting room was suddenly pushed open from the outside. All eyes immediately turned to the entrance to see who had made them wait for such a long time.

Su Wanxia stood at the door, panting, with one hand on the doorknob and the other on her chest, struggling to catch her breath.

She clearly looked like she had run all the way there.

“I’m sorry, I’m late,” she said between breaths, her face full of apologies.

Those who knew her identity widened their eyes in recognition.

So it was President Mu’s rumored girlfriend—that explained why they all had to wait.

Both Meng Can and Ji Hua sighed in relief internally. It was good that she had arrived.

Bai Yudie coldly snorted inside as she looked at the figure in the doorway, then turned her eyes away.

When Wen Lingya saw Su Wanxia, a flash of panic crossed her eyes, but she quickly hid it.

Mu Yingchen seemed to breathe a sigh of relief as well, shifting his gaze from her and casting a casual glance at Ji Hua.

Ji Hua promptly stood up, addressing Su Wanxia, “Hurry and take your seat, the meeting is about to start.”

When they heard his words, the corner of everyone’s mouth twitched. What did he mean the meeting was about to start? It had clearly already begun; they were just waiting for her, right?

At that moment, Su Wanxia couldn’t be bothered with everyone’s gaze and, smiling, she nodded and walked towards the empty seat.

Only after she had taken her seat did Mu Yingchen finally open his “golden mouth”: “Let’s begin.”

Su Wanxia also felt embarrassed. She had thought they had already started. Little did she expect so many people were actually waiting for her, which truly made her feel awkward.

“The final design for the Bali Island project is all in place. Everyone, please take a close look. If there are any concerns, we can discuss them,” Mu Yingchen said, lips slightly parting, his expression cold as he addressed everyone.

He then shifted his gaze towards Su Wanxia’s position. To her left was Meng Can, and to her right were people from other departments, next to whom sat Wen Lingya.

Su Wanxia sneakily glanced at Meng Can beside her, hoping he would introduce the project first since her mind was a bit of a mess and she needed to organize her thoughts.

But Meng Can, clearly understanding her intention, picked up the thick stack of documents in front of him and was just about to stand up when Wen Lingya beat him to it.

“Hello everyone, I am Wen Lingya, the designer of this proposal. Here are parts of my design, please review them,” she said while distributing her documents one by one to everyone at the table.

She then returned to her own seat and began explaining her design proposal to the group.

Su Wanxia raised an eyebrow and picked up the document Wen Lingya had placed in front of her, scrutinizing it slowly.

The board members, meanwhile, were nodding their heads with smiles on their faces.

The faces of the investors did not show much emotion; they were seriously looking through the documents in their hands.

Seeing that no one seemed dissatisfied, Wen Lingya’s lips curled into a proud smile.

“I’ve finished my explanation. If you have any comments or suggestions, please feel free to speak up.”

“Ms. Wen’s work, which I had seen before, is indeed good domestically, but this project is in the foreign land of Bali Island. I always feel that we should add some novel elements. Hehe, but this is just my personal opinion. I don’t know what everyone else thinks?” a middle-aged man in his forties, without any hesitation, voiced his opinion.

“I think we should add some exotic features because the visitors to the area come from all over the world. We shouldn’t be limited to our mainstream styles here; otherwise, they might feel uncomfortable.”

“Yes, I feel the same way.”

“Mhm, that’s indeed the case.”

Most of the comments came from investors, as they only looked at the ultimate visual effects and feelings of the design, freely expressing any thoughts they had.

Board members had no objections because Wen Lingya was their strong recommendation. As long as the design was passable, they were satisfied and did not delve as deeply into the issues as the main investors, who had spent a lot of money on the project.

As Wen Lingya listened to the growing list of unsatisfied comments, the smile at the corners of her mouth became more and more strained.

Mu Yingchen took a dispassionate glance at everyone and finally spoke up: “The project’s key player hasn’t had a look yet. It’s not too late to discuss after she’s seen it.”

Upon hearing these words, everyone had their thoughts – it seemed, after all the back and forth, Mu Yingchen didn’t really take Wen Lingya’s designs seriously.

The words Mu Yingchen spoke were like a harsh slap across Wen Lingya’s face.
