Chapter 477: An Extra Meal for You

Chapter 477: Chapter 477: An Extra Meal for You

Lin Anning had no idea that Luo Yuqing and Wang Chenning already had something going on, and of course, neither did Yang Xiaofei.

From the way she spoke today, Luo Yuqing was clearly implying something along those lines.

But Luo Yuqing wasn’t the least bit embarrassed. She continued to question Wang Chenning, "So in our future collaborations, even if you infringe upon our rights, we’re supposed to just listen to you and not raise any objections? Otherwise, you’ll just kick us out. Is that what you mean?"

Hearing Luo Yuqing say this, most of Lin Anning and Yang Xiaofei’s displeasure vanished.

"You can raise objections, but whether I listen is up to me!" Wang Chenning waved his hand dismissively. "Stop wasting time on this nonsense. If you have other things to do, go do them!"

Then he turned to Lin Anning. "Miss Lin, it’s rare for you to attend an event like this. I’m sure you have plenty of questions for me, and as it happens, I have a few for you as well. How about we talk in private?"

"Okay!" Having been there for a while, Lin Anning had already calmed down. Hearing Wang Chenning’s suggestion, she immediately agreed.

"Well, we’ll be heading back then!" Yang Xiaofei immediately said her goodbyes to Wang Chenning. "I’m going back to the office. I still have a few things to take care of!"

"I’m leaving too, then!" Luo Yuqing shot Wang Chenning an annoyed glare and left with Yang Xiaofei.

Wang Chenning had just shown Lin Anning into his office when two messages arrived, one right after the other, from Luo Yuqing and Yang Xiaofei.

Luo Yuqing: "Waiting for you to come punish me harshly!"

Yang Xiaofei: "There are a few things I want to ask you. Come find me when you’re free. I’ll make you a late-night snack!"

Wang Chenning replied to each of them with an "OK" hand gesture emoji.

Alone with Wang Chenning, Lin Anning started to feel flustered again.

"My grandfather really was the one who sent me to attend your event!" she quickly explained. "It just so happened that Luo Yuqing was coming too. We mentioned it while we were talking, so we came together. It’s not like she sought out my grandfather specifically to talk business!"

"Luo Yuqing already knows about us," Wang Chenning said, looking at Lin Anning calmly. "She’s a sharp woman. How could she not notice something was off when you were acting so differently from your usual self?"

This made Lin Anning very embarrassed. She stood up, looking down and wringing the fabric of her clothes with both hands. "Did I cause trouble for you?" she said, mortified. "Should I... Should I go and explain things to her?"

The moment the words left her mouth, she felt so stupid.

’I always completely lose my composure in front of him!’

Seeing her like this, Wang Chenning couldn’t help but sigh.

He reached out, gently pulled Lin Anning into his arms, and smoothed out her hair, which was now noticeably longer than when they had first met. "In that case, just try to get along with Luo Yuqing. I have a lot of collaborations with her. She’s a very capable person, and she’s given me a lot of support."

’This woman really has changed a lot for me. She’s grown her hair out and started wearing more feminine clothes.’

"She seemed really unhappy with you just now. Will there be trouble?" Lin Anning breathed a sigh of relief, resting her head on Wang Chenning’s shoulder. Her voice was soft as she said, "I was so nervous when you two were going at each other just now!"

"It’s fine. I figured out her personality a long time ago. Her bark is worse than her bite. Besides, she can’t get the kind of benefits I can offer her anywhere else." Wang Chenning looked at Lin Anning with a gentle smile. "Now, you can tell me what you gained from coming here today. And tell me all your thoughts!"

Lin Anning did as he asked, sharing her impressions from the day. She admitted that after witnessing the day’s events, she realized her understanding of him had been very shallow and that she had always underestimated his abilities. Having watched everything from the sidelines, she now felt that his future achievements would far surpass her expectations. She also expressed her hope that he would soon win a Nobel Prize and become a leading medical figure respected by the entire world.

She also hoped that the Lin family could collaborate with Wang Chenning in the healthcare industry, and she wanted to be the one in charge of the cooperation between the Lin family and him.

"Then go talk to your grandfather and your father. Tell them to have the Lin family collaborate with me, with you in charge of the partnership." Wang Chenning looked at Lin Anning, his face all smiles. "As for the results of our collaboration, you don’t need to worry at all. Anyone who works with me is in for a pleasant surprise!"

"Okay!" Lin Anning nodded happily. "I recorded some videos today. I’ll show them to my dad and grandfather when I get back and present my proposal."

Wang Chenning handed Lin Anning a few documents and also asked her to tell her grandfather, Lin Qiushou, that he was willing to talk with him.

"Just tell your grandfather that when I have time, I’ll come over to give him a check-up and some health advice."

"Okay!" Lin Anning nodded, her smile radiant. "I’ll tell my grandfather as soon as I get back!"

After talking for about half an hour, Lin Anning stood up, ready to take her leave.

But as she prepared to leave, she was still a little reluctant.

She wished so much that Wang Chenning would hold her and give her another gentle kiss.

Wang Chenning seemed to have noticed her desire. He immediately stood up, walked over to her, and gave her a domineering kiss.

After kissing Lin Anning until she was weak in the knees, Wang Chenning leaned in close to her ear and whispered, "I’m guessing you didn’t eat enough at dinner. How about I order you some ’fast food’?"

Lin Anning froze for a moment, then immediately understood what Wang Chenning meant, her face flushing crimson.
