Chapter 1470 - 1463: Turbulence Begins (9)
"Yes." Qin Zhiyou hung up the phone and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the deep night sky.
Although he had explained things clearly to his grandfather, he still needed a lot of time to complete his work. The New York stock market was about to open, and he simply had no other time to consider anything else.
He usually had two phones, one for work and one for personal use. His work phone had already been inundated with calls. Although the New York market had not yet opened, some people who had caught wind of something were secretly operating, and there were various messages from each functional department.
Fortunately, he had noticed the slight discrepancies in the financial reports earlier, which allowed his staff to prepare in advance. Otherwise, once the market opened, a plunge of eighty percent was possible, which would be a massive harvest.
Despite being busy with public affairs, he still took out his personal phone. Lu Weixi’s messages were at the top, saying she might go to accompany Xue Feifei today because she was injured. Moreover, she had attached a photo of herself at the evening event.
Even as his mind was racing, seeing the text and messages from Lu Weixi was like a tranquil haven after a complex storm. The down-to-earth nature of her messages also calmed his tense nerves a bit. It was fine that she didn’t know; letting her rest with Xue Feifei was all that mattered.
So he replied, "Okay, I have a bit of a situation with work today, so I might not be able to pick you up."
Lu Weixi received the message and was a bit surprised. She said she wouldn’t finish the premiere until twelve, and she planned to visit Xue Feifei afterward. At such a time, it was clear that something significant had happened at the company.
Today was their board meeting day—was it possible that his uncle and aunt were causing trouble again? She knew Qin Zhiyou was very busy and work was taxing. If he wanted to share his work difficulties, she would of course offer comfort. But if he chose not to, she wouldn’t press him. After all, her expertise wasn’t able to help him with his work, and asking too much might just add to his stress.
