Wen Yan paused for a moment, then calmly said, "I still have to rush to work."
She didn't believe Wen Shihao had come to find her without a motive.
Upon hearing this, Wen Shihao said obsequiously, "You can't skip meals just because you're busy, can you? Although you didn't manage to secure the project for your father, he doesn't blame you. Dad was indeed wrong before."
Wen Yan remained silent, listening as Wen Shihao continued, "Dad has no other purpose in looking for you than to ask for a chance. Give Dad a chance."
Hearing this, Wen Yan pondered for a moment and agreed.
She wanted to see what Wen Shihao was up to.
Wen Shihao smiled and sent her the address.
Wen Yan hung up the phone and headed to a breakfast shop. On the way, she received a call from Leng Xunze, "Are you up yet?"
Wen Yan nodded, "Yes, I'm going to have breakfast with my dad now."
"Why would he want to have breakfast with you? Send me the address." Leng Xunze knew some of Wen Yan's family matters, so he asked for more details.
Wen Yan looked out the window, "I want to know too, so I'm going to see."
Leng Xunze reminded her, "Be careful, call me if anything happens."
Wen Yan hummed and hung up the phone with a slight curve of her lips.
Half an hour later.
She got out of the car and walked into a breakfast shop. As she looked around, about to speak, Wen Shihao's voice came from a nearby seat, "Yan Yan, come over here."
Wen Yan turned her head and saw Wen Shihao, dressed in a well-fitting suit, smiling and waving at her.
Her expression was calm as she walked over.
Wen Shihao put on a paternal demeanor, "Sit down. The weather is getting cooler, remember to keep warm."
Wen Yan looked at her father with surprise and then sat down.
This kind of warm care was what she desired most.
Unfortunately, now she couldn't see it clearly in him.
Then, she noticed several breakfast items on the table, but none of them were her favorites.
Wen Shihao sat down, pointed to the breakfast on the table, and asked with a smile, "I saw you were coming a bit late, so Dad ordered a few of your favorites. Try them quickly."
Wen Yan is now Mrs. Leng. It doesn't matter if she didn't secure this collaboration; there will be bigger opportunities in the future.
"None of these are my favorites. I'll order myself."
As soon as Wen Yan finished speaking, Wen Shihao's face turned awkward, "Perhaps I remembered incorrectly. Yan Yan, don't take it to heart."
Wen Yan didn't want to play word games with him anymore and directly asked, "Dad, you didn't call me here just to treat me to breakfast, did you?"
Wen Shihao's expression became a little unnatural, then he said righteously, "Yan Yan, Dad knows he was wrong before... Is your mother doing well?"
Seeing Wen Shihao ask about her mother, her fair face instantly turned cold, "You only remember to ask about my mother now? She's doing very well, you don't need to worry about her."
"And the person you should be concerned about now isn't my mother, but the one in your own family. If there's nothing else, I'm leaving."
When Wen Yan heard Wen Shihao mention her mother, she immediately recalled how cruel his father had been.
A wave of discomfort surged through her, and she stood up.
Wen Shihao's face grew even more displeased, "Yan Yan..."
Wen Yan looked at him, "Even if you treat me to a few meals, the scars you left on me and my mother can't be erased."
With that, she turned and left the hall. She shouldn't have come for this breakfast. Now she hadn't eaten breakfast and was full of anger.
Wen Yan returned to the studio and suddenly remembered the financial matters. She dialed the internal line and called Zhuo Feng in to inquire about the situation.
Zhuo Feng stood in front of her and reported with a slight bow, "Ms. Wen, there have been no financial issues recently."
Wen Yan nodded, "Good. How is the preparation for the design exhibition going?"
If there was nothing else to do recently, she would even consider visiting Mrs. Leng.
"It's almost ready. Ms. Wen, the design exhibition is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon, and we've received news from there." Zhuo Feng explained the details of the design exhibition to Wen Yan.
Wen Yan tapped her temples, "Are there any other arrangements for tomorrow?"
Zhuo Feng shook his head.
Wen Yan told him that when they went in the afternoon, they could bring two designers with good skills.
Zhuo Feng nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile.
In a high-end suite.
Ou Ziqing looked at the man surnamed Feng beside her, "How is the preparation going?"
The man surnamed Feng picked up his glass of red wine and said in a low, hoarse voice, "Now, we are only a step away from launching an attack on the Song Corporation."
"Only a step away? What else is not ready?" Wen Yan was eager to know.
The man surnamed Feng took a sip of wine, "Leng Xunze has been keeping an eye on the Feng family, so I dare not act rashly now."
Few people probably know the extent of Leng Xunze's power.
Moreover, he didn't believe Ou Ziqing would obediently deal with Leng Xunze alongside him.
He wouldn't dare to turn his back on someone like Ou Ziqing.
Upon hearing this, Ou Ziqing said, "I'll go back right away and buy you some time. You should break open that box as soon as possible, and be careful not to damage it."
That box was too important to him.
"Okay." The man surnamed Feng readily agreed.
He really didn't know what was inside this box that made Ou Ziqing so eager.
Ou Ziqing saw him agree and stood up to leave.
Wen Yan spent the entire afternoon pondering how to incorporate fresh elements into her latest design.
It wasn't until evening that she finished the design and sent it to Ye Shu.
A while later, when she returned home, she saw that the things in the room were untouched. Just as she was about to call Leng Xunze to ask about the situation, she received a call from Ye Shu, who praised her briefly and said she had truly found a treasure this time.
Wen Yan flattered her back. As they were talking, Leng Xunze entered from outside and saw Wen Yan on the phone, asking, "Who are you talking to?"
"It's Sister Ye." Wen Yan pressed the speakerphone button while speaking.
Leng Xunze clearly heard Ye Shu's voice, "Xunze, where did you find such a treasure girl? Wen Yan's talent in design is the best I've ever seen."
"She is indeed my treasure." Leng Xunze's lips curved upwards.
Their meeting was a stroke of luck. Recalling it now, a surge of joy welled up in his heart.
Ye Shu smiled, "It's been a long time since you've described someone like that."
Wen Yan blushed, then thought of something, "Sister Ye, are you invited to the design exhibition tomorrow afternoon?"
Ye Shu replied, "Yes, but I don't really want to go. I have a lot of work waiting for me with the new drama auditions."
"Actually, a little relaxation wouldn't hurt," Wen Yan said with a smile.
Ye Shu sighed, "After this drama is over, I can finally rest well. Alright, I won't disturb you two lovebirds anymore."
After Wen Yan heard Ye Shu hang up, Leng Xunze sat on the sofa and said, "It's too late today. The villa has been tidied up. Let's move tomorrow."
He had intended to have Zuo An find someone to help with the move today, but something came up, so he had to move early tomorrow.
Wen Yan nodded, "I'll make dinner."
