CHAPTER 747: CHAPTER 668: FALLING FOR YOU FROM THE FIRST GLANCE 9_2

Lai Wei was startled for a moment, then smiled, "Thank you all."

Mi Lu smiled, "Family background determines our environment as we grow, but what a person becomes is absolutely their own choice. Lai Wei, you’re destined for great things, we all have faith in you. Don’t be misled by these distractions, we are all looking forward to the day when you take charge."

"Let’s go, my car is here. I’ll take you to the station. And when you come back on Sunday, you can also contact me. I’ll pick you up."

Lai Wei shook her head in refusal, "There’s no need to pick me up. Your time isn’t that abundant. I’ll see you at school."

"Alright."

Mi Lu agreed, aware that a girl like Lai Wei has her pride and her own thoughts. She rarely lets others see through her, nor does she take it for granted when others make sacrifices for her. Being with her is very comfortable.

And quite pleasant.

...

"Secretary Zhou, where are we going? Are we going to Uncle Bo Qin’s company?" Jian Dan asked with confusion as she observed the car heading toward Bo Qin’s company.

Secretary Zhou chuckled, catching a glimpse of the little girl’s puzzled face in the rearview mirror and replied, "Mmhmm, we’ll pick up President Bo on the way, then head straight to the airport."

"But I haven’t packed my luggage yet."

Secretary Zhou explained, "President Bo said there’s no need to worry, Miss. You can buy what you need in Haicheng. We don’t have time now; President Bo is in a hurry to get there for a meeting."

Jian Dan closed her mouth. Well, alright then, buying a couple of sets of clothes wouldn’t cost much. If it had to be Haicheng, then Haicheng it would be. Anyway, it’s all the same. Seeing Jian Dan no longer asking, Secretary Zhou also fell silent.

As they arrived, Bo Qin was already waiting at the company’s front gate. He walked straight over, sat down beside Jian Dan in the back seat, with a file folder and a laptop in his hands. Once the door was closed, he instructed Secretary Zhou, "Directly to the airport."

"Uncle Bo Qin."

The little girl, with her backpack on her legs and a warm smile on her face, was greeted with a slight smile from Bo Qin, "We didn’t have time to pack clothes, we’ll buy some in Haicheng later, alright?"

In front of Bo Qin, Jian Dan was always sensible and wouldn’t cause trouble, nodding repeatedly, "Okay, Uncle Bo Qin, will I be disturbing your work if you take me along?"

Bo Qin, already opening his laptop to receive files, answered Jian Dan’s question while distractedly multitasking, "Not at all, you can entertain yourself, and when I’m not busy, I’ll keep you company. Is that okay?"

Jian Dan didn’t let her disappointment show on her face, but instead smiled at Bo Qin, "Okay."

Although she didn’t know why Bo Qin had brought her along this time, being with him was all that mattered. It was okay if he didn’t have time to accompany her; she could go to the beach by herself to collect seashells and buy gifts for Mi Lu and Lai Wei.

She could make plans with sea snails.

Seeing the little girl lost in thought, Bo Qin thought she was unhappy and put down his work to reassure her, "Don’t worry, once we’re in Haicheng, there will be someone to look after you and keep you company. You can try the simple marine activities, but you’re not allowed to surf or dive."

No matter how many years passed, the little girl, now grown and graceful, was still a child in his eyes, the same frail girl he once knew.

Jian Dan, obedient and well-behaved, nodded, "I understand, Uncle Bo Qin."

"Hmm, that’s good."

...

After three and a half hours of flying, they arrived in Haicheng. The person from Haicheng Group assigned to greet Bo Qin was already waiting at the arrival gate. Usually, when Bo Qin visited, he was accompanied only by Secretary Zhou. The greeter was taken aback upon seeing the little girl following him and then widened his eyes in confusion, wondering why Bo Qin brought a little girl with him.

He felt a bit worried for his own Miss, Hai Ling of Haicheng Group, who saw Bo Qin as her own personal prize. And now, this unexpected arrival of a little girl—how should he handle this?

He took out his cellphone, snapped a photo, and sent it to his young Miss right away.

Then he stepped forward to greet them.

"President Bo, hello, I am from Haicheng Group’s reception team. I’ll take you to your hotel now."

Bo Qin nodded his head, "Just drop us off. My secretary has already booked a hotel, no need to trouble President Hai of Haicheng Group. If there’s anything that needs discussing, I’ll go directly to Haicheng Group to speak with President Hai first thing tomorrow morning."

"Why should you pay for yourselves when President Hai said he has already booked the hotel for you all? I’ll just take you there directly."

Bo Qin didn’t bother with this man; Secretary Zhou could handle it. Secretary Zhou took over the conversation, "Sorry, we have booked a hotel already, thank you for President Hai’s hospitality. Should you visit the capital in the future, Bo Group will certainly be as hospitable."
