So, he did read her bid carefully? He could also see at a glance what she had been struggling with. Shu Tinglan's face became a little better, and she put down the computer again and calculated the final quotation as he said. No.
If you are still confused, send an email directly to Director Xiao.
Director Xiao will not use her bid document, it only serves as a reference, but she will still take it seriously. What she presents to Director Xiao is the standard that can be directly presented to the client.
Soon, Director Xiao replied to the email
"Have a good rest on the weekend and go directly to Zhuoyuan Technology on Monday to meet up and arrive an hour early."
Shu Tinglan put away the computer, sat on the sofa, looked at Zhuo Yuan, and asked curiously
"What are our chances of winning, Director Xiao?"
"Not sure." He answered very cautiously, never letting up when it came to work matters.
Shu Tinglan was also used to it. It would be damning if this man would reveal his true feelings one day. Zhuo Yuan was still like before, holding her in his arms with a blanket and watching boring legal columns with her.
Shu Tinglan asked tentatively on a whim.
"Zhuo Yu'an, given our relationship, can I make a small request? When bidding, if we are of the same level, can we, Director Xiao, be given priority?"
"What's the relationship between the two of us?" Zhuo Yu'an asked in a gentle tone without answering, but he didn't even look at Shu Tinglan, he just looked at the TV screen intently.
Very nonchalant.
Shu Tinglan also instantly lost interest in communicating again. This man was too realistic. The two of them were just sleeping partners and refused to let her take advantage of him in the slightest.
From the very beginning, his stance was very clear, he only wanted to sleep with each other but not talk about love.
Seeing that she didn't reply, Zhuo Yu'an loosened his arms around her, sat up straight and looked at her, and said seriously
"Shu Tinglan, you haven't answered my question yet, what's the relationship between us?"
Oh, he was reluctant to give up. Was he afraid that she would rely on him? Shu Tinglan was furious and said impatiently.
"Don't worry, we are sleeping partners, I won't pester you."
"Bedmate?" He asked Shu Tinglan as if he was hearing this word for the first time, shocked and even incredulous.
Shu Tinglan didn't speak anymore, and shrank back into the sofa, leaving only her small face exposed. She thought that she was tolerant enough to Zhuo Yu'an, and he always came and went freely with her. She would have to ask for advice another day.
Lin Zhiqian, does this relationship need to formulate game rules to constrain each other?
But would it be too troublesome to restrain each other?
Originally, it was better to just follow one's heart, but if we really set rules, we would lose this freedom.
"Shu Tinglan, I really underestimate you."
This was the only thing he said after he went to the kitchen and drank three glasses of water in a row.
At night, he did not intend to let her go. He looked down at her with cold eyes and an even colder tone:
"This is your sleeping partner."
He just wanted to let her know what a true bedmate relationship is.
Shu Tinglan didn't think much about it, and fell asleep when she was so tired. When she got up the next day, Zhuo Yu'an seemed to be fine and made breakfast for her to get up.
Shu Tinglan felt it necessary to express his position:
"I didn't like what happened last night."
"Sorry, I'll pay attention to it later." He said calmly.
"Zhuo Yu'an, actually you don't have to force yourself to do these things, such as cooking for me and helping me clean the room."
"Don't force it."
"Our relationship is free to come and go. I can terminate it at any time if I don't want to, and so can you." She said it very straightforwardly.
Zhuo Yuan looked up at her
"Shu Tinglan, can I ask you a question?"
"You ask."
"I'm curious, what gave you such an open personality? In my impression, you are not such a person." He looked at her sincerely and waited for the answer.
"What kind of person do you think I am?"
"Beautiful, proud, and conservative. In high school, the only thing I missed was that I didn't have the words "Don't disturb boys and don't fall in love early" engraved on my head.
Shu Tinglan didn't expect that he would actually have an impression of her in high school, so she couldn't help but laugh at herself.
"Perhaps things must be reversed when they go to extremes."
When I was young, I was a flower in the greenhouse, living a regular life, thinking that the world was full of kindness and beauty; as an adult, especially after my father passed away suddenly, the whole world I originally knew collapsed. The distortion and despicability of human nature,
Dirty, all the filth was thrown at her, and no part of her body was clean.
Just leave it like this, it won't get better.
"Shu Tinglan, I am not an open person." He said seriously.
"Oh." So? I didn't notice that he was conservative at all.
Seeing that she had no intention to continue communicating, Zhuo Yuan stopped talking. The two finished breakfast in silence. Shu Tinglan went back to the bedroom to catch up on his sleep, and habitually told him not to forget to close the door when going out.
When she woke up again after sleeping until noon, she saw Zhuo Yuan working on the coffee table in the living room holding a computer and holding a video conference. His voice was turned down very low, but Shu Tinglan could vaguely hear their exchange.
Communicating in pure English, the other side should be the technical director Wang Yan, and the mysterious product manager Jane. Seeing Shu Tinglan appear, Zhuo Yuan said something to the other side
"That's it for today."
Wang Yan: "Okay. Where are you working today? The background is weird."
Zhuo Yu'an: "We'll talk about it later, hang up."
"Why didn't you leave?" Shu Tinglan was surprised. This person was so busy, why did he stay at her house instead of leaving? It couldn't be to accompany her, right?
"Lu Kuo made an appointment with us for lunch, are you going?"
"No, I'm not familiar with him." She refused without thinking.
"He wants to chase Cheng Chen and wants your help. After all, you are Cheng Chen's best friend." Zhuo Yu'an explained.
"I can't help him. The biggest problem between him and Cheng Chen is that they are in different places. It is impossible for Cheng Chen to come to Senzhou for him, and it is impossible for him to go to Qining for Cheng Chen. So there is nothing to talk about." She was very sensible.
"Okay, I'll refuse him. Then, I'll treat you to lunch. There aren't many dishes in the refrigerator." He didn't embarrass her because of Lu Kuo.
"No, let's order takeout. I'll treat you this time."
Adhering to the spirit of coming and going, Shu Tinglan insisted on treating Zhuo Yu'an to a sumptuous take-out lunch. However, Zhuo Yu'an refused to give up and gave up after only a few bites.
Zhuo Yu'an didn't leave for two days throughout the weekend. However, the two of them didn't communicate much. He was very busy and seemed to have endless meetings. Shu Tinglan was also very busy and had been preparing for Monday's bidding.
