Chapter 2685: Chapter 1669: Sunflower Manual

"Miss Lan."

When Shi Zhenhua turned around and saw the person coming, he immediately adjusted his demeanor.

Controlling emotions is a skill that must be learned to rise from the bottom to the top.

If the business world of the whole country were compared to a martial arts world,

then he and the other person definitely belong to the same faction. Besides, in Kyoto, it was this person who stepped in to take over, bearing the damage, allowing Jinhai to retreat completely from the breath of the Flood Dragon in the Jiuding Group.

It was precisely because they were so familiar that President Lan would take the initiative to come over.

"Miss Lan."

Following closely behind her father, Shi Qianxi also offered a courteous smile and couldn’t help but glance at the young Taoist nun beside her.

One delicate and exquisite, the other tall and ethereal.

Their image and temperament were quite different, yet equally beautiful.

Shi Qianxi couldn’t help but wonder.

She naturally recognized Tanki Liuli.

Wasn’t she supposed to be at the Spring and Autumn Plaza?

Why was she here?

She was puzzled and forgot to greet, while Tanki Liuli, unaware of worldly customs since coming down the mountain, gradually understood the mundane world. However, expecting her to learn socializing was unrealistic.

So even though she knew Shi Qianxi, she acted as if she didn’t, standing "coldly aloof" beside her senior sister, quietly watching the father and daughter who had just been "yelling and shouting".

Helping the Flood Dragon cross the tribulation was naturally her learned humor and a way to escape for a good night’s sleep.

She didn’t know how long the pair of men would argue, so she had to find a quieter place.

Looking across the entire East Sea, where else could she find shelter?

Only her senior sister from the same school.

If someone saw this scene, they would surely be disheartened.

Still hoping to use someone as a trump card.

If an extreme situation occurs in the future, one could compare wrists with the Bodhisattva Guanyin.

Now it’s all good.

No more battles.

Directly defected.

If that time really comes, if they don’t team up to defeat him, it would be a blessing.

"What happened that made Director Shi so agitated?"

But the voice was unconsciously a bit loud, heard even in this noisy environment, undoubtedly an extraordinary person.

"I told Dad to drink less, but he wouldn’t listen. Miss Lan, please help me persuade him."

Just as Shi Zhenhua was contemplating how to brush off the question, his daughter already spoke fluently.

It’s undeniable; the young truly react quickly.

"Miss Shi’s filial heart, Director Shi should feel comforted."

Shi Zhenhua cooperatively nodded, giving a wry smile, "Alas, once it was my wife managing me, now it’s my daughter. It seems we men are unlikely to be free till death."

"Dad, just be content. When there’s no one to manage you, then you’ll know what pathetic truly is."

This kind of remark, Shi Qianxi definitely wouldn’t have said before in front of that person, but with the new factory issue in Kyoto, the other’s "stepping in" undoubtedly brought them closer. Psychologically, she felt more familiar now than before.

"You shut up!"

Hearing this, Shi Zhenhua was undeniably irked, scolding in annoyance.

"Alright, I won’t say it."

Shi Qianxi muttered, "When you get old and can’t take care of yourself, watch me send you to a nursing home."

"You brat...!"

Shi Zhenhua glared angrily, but what could he do about this precious daughter?

In his anger, he could only be momentarily angry.

"Sorry for letting Miss Lan see this."

He could only give a deflated smile at the woman observing, filled with the melancholy of being a parent to an only child, sighing, "Indeed, children are unreliable."

"Even reliable people don’t see you cherishing them."

Shi Qianxi retorted once again.

As the organizer of this banquet, Lan Peizhi certainly couldn’t watch the father-daughter argument continue interminably, so she interjected.

"No need to worry, Director Shi. If one day Miss Shi truly sends you to a nursing home, write to the chamber, they will definitely stand up for you."

Except perhaps for Tanki Liuli, who probably didn’t know what a nursing home meant, the father and daughter, who were just arguing red-faced, laughed simultaneously.

"Right. I haven’t had the chance to thank Miss Lan."

Shi Zhenhua returned to the topic, speaking solemnly, "Thank you, Miss Lan, for your great help with Jinhai’s new factory in Kyoto."

Lan Peizhi lightly replied, "It’s just mutual benefit and win-win."

During the formal exchange between the "elders", Shi Qianxi didn’t interrupt further, quieting down, her gaze returning to the silent and taciturn Tanki Liuli.

The two of them stared at each other.

"Miss Lan, you’re being too polite. I understand that the Great Wall Shares held by Jinhai aren’t that significant to Miss Lan, but the factory in Kyoto is crucial for Jinhai’s future."

Shi Zhenhua appeared thoughtful, "I wonder if Miss Lan has some free time recently? I plan to host a dinner at my home to express my gratitude, hoping Miss Lan would honor us with your presence."

Knowing the other party would most likely politely decline, Shi Zhenhua added, "I will invite MeiLing to accompany as well."

Inviting his ex-wife over as company was indeed a sincere gesture.

"Dad."

Upon hearing this, Shi Qianxi couldn’t care less about staring with the charming Taoist and nudged her father’s arm uncontrollably.

There’s still a meal unarranged; where’s the time to invite other guests?

Shi Zhenhua ignored it, looking sincerely at Lan Peizhi.

Lan Peizhi certainly noticed Shi Qianxi’s small actions, realizing the dilemma the other side faced.

"It’s not very convenient."

Indeed.

It’s really inconvenient!

Shi Qianxi nodded repeatedly in her heart.

"It’s not inconvenient."
