However, Lu Weixi didn’t pick up the call directly either. She glanced at Qin Zhiyou, who was also looking at the cellphone, frowning slightly as if he had some problematic matter on hand. He was busy, so she went ahead and answered the call.
Sure enough, the designer on the other end had some specific requests. Though they had met the day before yesterday, the meeting was only about the broader framework. As for how to adjust the small details, they needed to continue the discussion during the latter stages of the project. As Lu Weixi was on the phone, she looked at Qin Zhiyou, who quickly replied to a message. His expression was still a bit solemn, so she replied hurriedly, “I’ll discuss these issues with you when we’re back at work on Monday, okay?”
The other party responded, “No, the client wants to see it by Wednesday. We only have Monday and Tuesday. I’m afraid I won’t be able to handle it. I actually wanted to discuss it with you yesterday, but you weren’t there.”
Lu Weixi nodded but she had already promised Qin Zhiyou a ‘world-for-two’ experience and couldn’t deceive him. After pondering for a long time, she replied, “Then do this: compile all the issues, jot down any questions or things you’re unclear about, just write everything out, and then email it to me. I’m outside right now and can’t explain everything to you, one by one in detail. Once you’ve written it all out, I’ll discuss it with you.”
The other party agreed and finally hung up.
Lu Weixi quickly put away the phone and took another look at Qin Zhiyou. She knew she was breaking protocol and betraying a promise. They had agreed to a ‘world-for-two,’ and yet she had prioritized work.
Qin Zhiyou also understood what she meant. She was trying hard to coordinate, but things weren’t going as hoped. Just like on his end, Zhongtian Steel had made a move; a controlling subsidiary was competing with one of their downstream companies for a project. The project wasn’t big, but it was vital. At such a time, do you act or not?
“It’s okay, I have some things to attend to as well.”
From this divorce, he had learned just one thing: even if he was trying to do what’s best for Lu Weixi, he shouldn’t use a dominant approach or decide her actions for her. Sure enough, Lu Weixi felt somewhat touched.
Her project might seem big, but Qin Zhiyou, managing the Hanhai Group, was undoubtedly busier by a hundredfold. Yet he seemed to be compromising for her sake.
