Lin Zhan was also looking at her.

“What’s wrong with you? Why are you crying? I didn’t expect you to be in France. How long have you been in France? Why didn’t you come and find me?”

Lin Zhan had always been in France, and the Lin family’s business had grown bigger. They had branches everywhere overseas.

How could Mu Yao not know?

“I’m… I went to France for a trip. I just read a novel. The novel was so touching that I cried.” Mu Yao explained, feeling a little embarrassed.

“We haven’t seen each other for many years, but you still look the same.” Lin Zhan smiled and looked around.

“Mr. Lu isn’t with you?”

Mu Yao lowered her head and didn’t speak.

“Are you guys doing well?” Lin Zhan asked.

Mu Yao still didn’t say anything, but she felt a lump in her throat, and tears fell again.

Lin Zhan didn’t ask anything.

He gently rubbed the short hair on Mu Yao’s forehead, then handed her a piece of tissue.

“I want to know what’s going on in your little head. You can even cry like this while reading a novel.”

Lin Zhan also wanted to know why Mu Yao’s beloved husband wasn’t by her side.

When they got off the plane, the Lin family’s driver had been waiting outside the airport for a long time.

“I’ll send you back. It’s on the way.” Lin Zhan suggested.

“It’s fine. We’ve moved.” After Mu Yao said this, she got into a taxi as if she was escaping.

Lin Zhan didn’t chase after Mu Yao.

He was still the same as before, modest and gentlemanly. He would support Mu Yao’s decisions with a smile.

A lot had happened in City A in the ten days Mu Yao was away.

Su Jin had already returned to work in the group, and she reclaimed her position.

The bidding for the Yuan Expo project was also going smoothly.

On the day of the bidding, Lu Jinchen didn’t attend. It seemed he was at the hospital.

Huan Sheng Group never fought a battle they weren’t sure of, so Lu Jinchen thought there wouldn’t be any mistakes even if he didn’t attend.

But Song Group was different. Song Yufei personally brought his company’s top executives to attend. They were important figures in the company.

The tender was open and transparent. After many rounds of selection and elimination, only two big companies were left.

The votes were tied.

Lu Jinchen was also shocked when he heard the result.

If Song Group had sent someone else to attack City A, he might have taken it seriously.

But what did this playboy Song Yufei know? A spoiled rich kid who only knew how to hook up with women.

Lu Jinchen couldn’t understand how he had managed to tie with him.

She couldn’t help but recall the scene of Bai Zhenkai looking for Mu Yao.

Could this be related to Mu Yao?

Lu Jinchen shook his head. His intuition told him to ignore this thought.

He ordered Gu Bei to make a trip to the district.

When he returned, Gu Bei brought a few design drawings, all of which were signed by Mu Yao.

Lu Jinchen looked at the designs and suddenly realized he didn’t understand her well.

In their three years of marriage, Mu Yao had always been his Mrs. Lu. She had no job, no social life, and no social circle of her own.

Her life seemed to revolve around him.

After leaving Lu Jinchen, even though Mu Yao had tried to hide her beauty, she could not hide the brilliance of her work.

These designs would make the chief designer of Huang Sheng Group ashamed of himself.

At this moment, Gu Bei pushed the door open and walked in.

“Mr. Lu, the results of winning the bid are out.”

“I know.” Lu Jinchen did not even look up.

“You know?” Gu Bei was surprised.

When Lu Jinchen saw Mu Yao’s design drawings, he knew that the Huan Sheng Group had lost this project.

Sure enough.

Song Group won the big project of the Yuan Expo smoothly, and the whole company was in a jubilant mood.

Song Yufei even promised to hold a celebration party at City A’s largest hotel, inviting all the employees to celebrate.

On the contrary, the Huan Sheng Group was surrounded by a gloomy atmosphere.

Lu Qing couldn’t sit still.

Although she was not in the company, she knew everything about it.

She made a phone call to the president’s office.

“Jinchen, what’s going on with the Yuan Expo project? Didn’t you say not to worry? Song Group is new in City A. How did they get such a big project?”
