Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant!

Chapter 17: Chapter 17 Boyfriend...



For what reason?

The moment Su Lu heard Zhuang Cai Nan's words, even though she knew it was immature, she still wanted to ask, for what reason?

But time had already worn away many of her sharp edges. Moreover, she was too timid to find the piercing answer from Zhuang Cai Nan's mouth.

Because it was clear that the two of them were not just an ordinary superior-subordinate duo.

Zhuang Cai Nan, however, didn't care whether she wanted to listen or not, and bluntly said, "We're all women. Don't do things like trying to steal someone else's boyfriend. I don't care what others do. If you keep pestering Jingshen, don't blame me for being rude."

Boyfriend…

Su Lu pressed her lips together and remained silent.

Even though there were no onlookers around, she still felt just as humiliated as if she had been slapped in public.

Rather than saying it was humiliating, it was more like it was saddening.

She had endured five years of torment, but by now, she no longer had any chance.

After saying this, Zhuang Cai Nan turned and walked in the direction of the banquet hall.

On her way, she squinted her eyes and looked at the balding man who had been pestering Su Lu earlier from a distance, Liu Qiming.

Zhuang Cai Nan altered her steps and walked toward Liu Qiming.

In the banquet hall,

Jiang Li had his hands in his pockets, following Bo Jingshen without a care.

He laughed, "Why bother? Playing the tough guy? Clearly, you wanted to bring her in, so why act all cool and emotionless? If you were really that heartless, would you have gone out in a typhoon to play the hero and save the beauty?"

As Jiang Li spoke, he lightly patted Bo Jingshen on the back, "And got injured for love?"

The slight pain induced by the pat made Bo Jingshen frown slightly, "Do you even have any awareness of your strength?"

Jiang Li chuckled.

Bo Jingshen glanced lightly toward the entrance of the banquet hall.

Jiang Li continued, "Stop looking, she hasn't come in yet. Do people not care about their dignity? Besides, this hall's presentation isn't something just anyone can come in and watch."

Bo Jingshen glared at him, "What do you know anyway?"

The host from the organizing party approached, "Good evening, Mr. Bo. I'm today's host, here to go over the procedure with you."

Facing the direction of the banquet hall entrance, Bo Jingshen went over the procedure with the host.

It wasn't until they finished and the host invited him to sit down, stating that the speech was about to begin.

That he still hadn't seen Su Lu enter from the door.

That invitation letter… she wouldn't have just ignored it, would she?

Didn't Su Lu come in?

Of course she did.

She quietly slipped into the banquet hall at the last moment before the first presentation began, just before the entrance closed.

She still couldn't hold back, because Bo Jingshen was going to give a speech today. And Su Lu wanted to see it.

But instead of sitting in the best seat in the first row as indicated on the invitation, she randomly found an empty seat in the back row and sat down.

As the presentation began, the lights around the hall dimmed.

Everyone who went up to give a presentation was someone who had accomplished and progressed significantly in their field.

Some had a keen eye for good investment projects, others had outstanding abilities and research in their projects.

Quite a few of them were young people.

For example, the man currently on stage delivering a speech was about thirty years old. The flexible screen project he developed showed enormous potential. If one could invest in this project, the future was promising.

Su Lu listened attentively, but then an annoying voice came from beside her.

"Xiaolu, are you interested in this flexible screen project too?"

Liu Qiming's voice was as usual, and it sounded as if... nothing had happened earlier.

Su Lu had to admire Liu Qiming. No wonder he could succeed in business and make money. Not everyone had the skill to bend and stretch.

Su Lu frowned slightly but said nothing.

Liu Qiming didn't care whether she responded or not and continued, "The real estate market has been tough these past two years. Your dad wants a piece of the action in the tech field. President Bo is advancing into the domestic market and planning a high-tech park in Feng City. Your dad is very interested."

"Oh," Su Lu replied coolly.

Liu Qiming wasn't angry. Instead, he laughed, "Xiaolu, businessmen can't be too emotional."

He continued, "Anyway, President Bo is determined to get this flexible screen project. Your dad sent you to act as his temporary secretary. Does the Su Family also want a piece of the action?"

Upon hearing this, Su Lu raised an eyebrow, no longer showing her emotions recklessly, and replied ambiguously, "Of course, everyone wants a good project. Following President Bo, is it really unreasonable to want a piece of the action?"

"You can say that, but it might not be wise. Although Boss is a big corporation, domestic manufacturers now lean more towards the domestic market. No matter how big Bo Jingshen's business is overseas, it's still foreign investment. Entering the domestic market won't be without its challenges."

"A healthy and mature project like the flexible screen clearly won't lack for investment. Developing it domestically would even have policy advantages, so there's no need to take risks."

"I could introduce you to the project's head. Aren't you attending the exhibition as Bo Jingshen's secretary? You might as well have a chat."

After he finished speaking, Su Lu pondered for a moment before asking, "So what? What are President Liu's conditions?"

A businessman can't be too emotional and doesn't believe in free lunches.

Liu Qiming chuckled, "There's a dinner tonight. Accompany me. The flexible screen project's head will also be there. It's not really a condition, more like a mutual benefit. Consider it compensation for my earlier rudeness?"

Su Lu didn't immediately agree, only saying, "We'll see."

"Alright, I'll send you the location of the dinner then."

Liu Qiming didn't continue to chatter beside her.

And even if he did, Su Lu no longer had the mind to listen.

Because… Bo Jingshen was about to go on stage.

A tall, slender figure stood up from the first row of seats.

The host gave a brief introduction, "Next on stage is the founder of Boss Group, Mr. Bo Jingshen. Under Mr. Bo's leadership, Boss Group has achieved significant development and accomplishments in internet technology, video games, artificial intelligence, and holographic projection…"

Bo Jingshen walked onto the stage amidst applause.

The spotlight fell on him, and he began to speak calmly and unhurriedly.

The script Zhuang Cai Nan prepared for him didn't come into play at all, as he gave an entirely unscripted speech, his voice deep and rich, his pace measured.

Because today's speech would be broadcast online, he spoke once in Chinese, then again in English.

However, throughout the process, his expression remained indifferent, without a trace of a smile, as if he was perpetually unhappy.

Whenever someone finished their speech, the lights in the hall would brighten momentarily.

In that brief moment of illumination, this young CEO who had remained aloof from start to finish.

His scanning gaze suddenly stopped at a certain spot in the back row of the hall, raising his sharp eyebrows slightly.

Although that cold, handsome face remained impassive, there was inexplicably a sense that it wasn't as cold as before.
