Chapter 195 It Is Fine to Hold Hands
Mu Zhi decided to play along with Lu Jinye. After Lu Jinye had spoken, she answered him with a gentle
‘yes’.
Then she took a seat beside him.
Xie Xiu did not seem to react to seeing Mu Zhi by Lu Jinye’s side. Instead, he flipped open a folder of
documents and said, “Mr. Lu, this is my company’s investment plan for your businesses. Do have a
look at it.”
Lu Jinye arched his brow but still took the documents offered.
Although Mu Zhi had been with Lu Jinye for a long time, most of it was in the capacity of a secretary.
As such, she was not familiar with the business technicalities and analysis of the business data.
In the past, she had only the medical field in mind which was why she had put all her mind on other
areas. As for being a secretary… It was an identity she had assumed while acting as Lu Jinye’s wife.
As such, when Lu Jinye and Xie Xiu were negotiating with the data, Mu Zhi could not understand what
they were talking about.
Who knew a difference in the decimal points of a value could affect the development of an enterprise
greatly?!
Mu Zhi was in awe of their mental capacity.
Lu Jinye had always had photographic memory especially when it came to numbers and figures.
Likewise, Xie Xiu also seemed to have that ability and was also able to recall large amounts of
information. When referring to figures and relevant information, Lu Jinye did not need to refer to the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdocuments.
Xie Xiu was also the same.
Both of them continued to raise inquiries concerning the data while Xie Xiu’s team of secretaries flipped
the pages of the documents hurriedly to find the information from their negotiations.
Meanwhile, Xie Xiu’s team of accountants was calculating frantically. Their calculations determined the
success or failure of the deal.
On the other hand, Mu Zhi as Lu Jinye’s secretary seemed completely out of place!
After all… She had not read the documents, so her presence in the meeting was unnecessary.
She had no idea why Lu Jinye had called her here and even let her attend the meeting!
She suspected that Lu Jinye was deliberately doing this.
But… This time, Lu Jinye did not seem to need a secretary.
He did not need a secretary to confirm the figures for him. He even supported his proposals with actual
proofing rendering Xie Xiu’s accountants somewhat redundant.
Every little cost they were calculating had already been calculated by him carefully.
All the mature data were deeply familiar to him.
As the two men were negotiating, Mu Zhi was suddenly tired. She was not sure why and wondered if it
was because she had not worked for a long time.
Moreover, a meeting with Lu Jinye was a test on both mental and physical stamina. Lu Jinye had
always been robust both physically and mentally, so even she could not keep up with his pace. It
seemed that Xie Xiu also had extraordinarily good stamina.
Halfway through the meeting, Mu Zhi found it difficult to stay awake.
Watching their extensive negotiations and their constant back and forth, her mind became tired
suddenly…
She stifled a yawn. Feeling embarrassed, she stood up and used the pretext of using the washroom to
go out and take a breather.
Although she had been drinking tea throughout the meeting, she still couldn’t stay alert. This showed
how mentally taxing the meeting was.
Even Mu Zhi felt it was incomprehensible.
She went to the washroom and splashed cold water on her face. That made her a little more alert.
Then she quickly walked back to where Lu Jinye was having the meeting.
However, when she pushed the door open, she saw that everyone was clearing away their belongings.
The meeting had ended and they were getting ready to leave…
Mu Zhi was baffled.
“The meeting has ended?”
She went to Lu Jinye’s side, looked at him quizzically, and asked.
The corner of his lips curved up slightly as he handed her the documents, “Take the documents. We
are leaving.”
Mu Zhi was bewildered but she still took them as instructed and followed Lu Jinye out of the room.
In the past, she was willing to swear on her memory, Lu Jinye had never sought to hold hands when
they entered the lift after a business meeting.
Moreover… Even when they desired each other, they had never felt the need to hold hands.
They had always expressed their love in more direct ways.
This time, Lu Jinye took her hand on his own volition. His large warm hand grasped firmly onto her
more delicate one. Even her fingertips had not escaped his grasp.
His hand was thick and warm, and he willfully secured his grasp.
Even if Mu Zhi wanted to free herself, she would not be able to.
So, she let him hold her hand as the lift slowly descended the building.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLu Jinye was still holding her hand even after they had left the building.
He did not let go when they had reached the underground car park.
When Mu Zhi wanted to pull her hand away, Lu Jinye was suddenly tense. “Don’t, there’s surveillance.”
Mu Zhi was not sure why. Perhaps Lu Jinye was too convincing when he spoke of a mysterious threat.
So, Mu Zhi was petrified for a moment and forgot to pull her hand away.
She let Lu Jinye continue to hold her hand as she got into the car. He had only let her go when he
started the car.
Mu Zhi felt her heart beating rapidly but her mind was more concerned with her pressing questions. “Lu
Jinye… What was that for?”
Mu Zhi couldn’t hold back her curiosity, so she asked and looked straight at him.
Lu Jinye looked back at her but did not answer her question. Instead, he leaned over and helped Mu
Zhi put on her safety belt…
His actions left her even more puzzled.
“Lu Jinye, what are you up to?”
She had not worked with him for a long time. Did that cause him to change his work manner?
Mu Zhi could not understand what was going on.
“Nothing, I just wanted to hold your hand. Was that not allowed?” Lu Jinye smiled.
His tone was bold and confident.
With that, he drove the car and left the car park…
Mu Zhi was not asking him why he was holding her hand.
Considering the nature of their relationship, they had done things much more intimate than that, so
holding hands was not an issue.
What Mu Zhi wanted to ask was… Why did he bring her to the meeting when she didn’t know
anything?
“You were well prepared and did not need a secretary, not that I would be of much help anyway. Why
did you bring me to the meeting?” she asked.
