Chapter 319: Ill Intentions
Shen Weiyi responded calmly, "My dad is still abroad due to some matters, but he will be back soon. Once he’s back, I’ll ask him to invite President Lu for tea immediately."
"Really? That’s quite unfortunate," the latter remarked with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, looking at Shen Weiyi, "Since we can’t meet Mr. Shen in person, I wonder if Miss Shen could trouble herself to call Mr. Shen for me? I’d like to personally say hello."
"This..." Shen Weiyi hesitated, "It should be night time overseas right now, which might not be convenient."
President Lu smiled and said, "Miss Shen, you don’t seem to know Younger Mr. Shen well enough. Given his habits, he might just be at a bar right now enjoying himself."
"Okay, then please give me a moment, Mr. Shen," Knowing that the other party wouldn’t be satisfied without making the call, Shen Weiyi immediately picked up her phone and dialed Shen Juanzhi’s number.
After a while, she turned apologetically towards President Lu and said, "I’m truly sorry, no one answered my dad’s phone. I’ll call Secretary Jiang!"
With that, she dialed Secretary Jiang’s number, this time on speakerphone.
The phone was answered after a few rings.
A noisy background, akin to a bar, echoed through the phone.
"Hello, Secretary Jiang, this is Shen Weiyi. Are you with my dad? I tried calling his phone and no one answered. President Lu from Yunxin Technology is here and would like to have a chat with my dad."
Secretary Jiang’s voice came through soon after, "Mr. Shen is drunk at a bar; I’m about to take him back to the hotel. Please convey my greetings to President Lu, and when Mr. Shen wakes up tomorrow morning, I’ll have him return the call."
"Okay, please take good care of my dad."
