Chapter 161: Need Help?
o boost their image and gain exposure. It's a win-win situation. You'll see these kinds of events often, so the donations are just symbolic gestures.”Hǎo Jie felt she had explained clearly enough, and...Shu Tinglan saw such a panicked expression on Lu Yaoyao's face for the first time. Her fair face was visibly flushed red.
She came running back quickly and took the hand of the lady in front.
"Mr. Cheng, this way, this way."
As she spoke, Shu said to Tinglan in a hushed voice, motioning for her to leave quickly. Her expression was one of genuine worry, as if she had seen a ferocious beast.
Shu Tinglan just felt she was being illogical, and didn't care. She turned around and left with Zhou Ming.
Over here, Lu Yaoyao let out a genuine sigh of relief. She even had a feeling of "surviving a disaster." Though she might fear the world's chaos, this chaos must not originate from her. She couldn't handle it.
"Teacher Cheng, I'm so sorry. My father recently returned to Beijing and is not at the company. I made you take a wasted trip."
"Mm." Cheng Zhimin naturally knew Lu Shaohang was in Beijing. Her visit this time was just an excuse, her real purpose was to meet Shu Tinglan.
"Has Miss Shu finished her business" Speaking of Shu Tinglan, his tone became calm.
"I'm going to take a look."
Lu Yaoyao took a deep breath, knowing that Shu Tinglan was gone, but she still pretended to call Mr. Xiao and ask if the meeting was over
"Oh Did Mr. Shu leave after the meeting"
She hung up the phone and shook her head helplessly at Cheng Zhimin.
Cheng Zhimin didn't say anything, just nodded to indicate she knew. Lu Shaohing's secretary, that is, Ms. Dong, knowing she was coming to the company, hurriedly came out to greet her, not daring to be disrespectful.
Cheng Zhimin knew about the relationship between Dong, the secretary, and Lu Shaohang. She looked down on Dong's enthusiasm and didn't even glance at her. Instead, she turned slightly to Lu Yaoyao and said:
Since your father is not at the company, I will come another day.
Her bearing and arrogance were innate, cultivated over years of living a life of privilege. Standing before Mr. Dong's secretary, she didn't need to speak; her very presence was a blow beneath their station.
To say that Lu Yaoyao liked Professor Cheng most right now was true. Seeing the awkward smile on Dong's secretary face, she felt a sense of satisfaction, thinking that evil people would eventually be punished by other evil people. Unbeknownst to her, this saying applied perfectly to herself.
Ms. Dong was quick to adapt to the condescending treatment she received from people in this circle. She adjusted her mindset quickly and showed a professional, polite smile.
“Teacher Cheng, this is for you.”
She clicked in her high heels, taking three steps to the elevator, and pressed Lu Shaohang's exclusive direct elevator button for them to ride.
The two men simply walked past her, ignoring her completely, and went straight into the elevator without even saying thank you.
As they reached the elevator, Cheng Zhimin spoke.
“Is this Ms. Dong still bothering your father”
"Hmph, cling to me if you want. Anyway, there are others besides her. Don't you know my dad"
Cheng Zhimin didn't speak again.
This Lu family, generation after generation, is unreliable, it's hard to say.
The two of them stepped out of the exclusive elevator, arriving at the underground parking garage of Whale Finance. Lu Yaoyao's heart, which had just settled down, instantly jumped back into her throat.
It's so coincidental that Shu Tinglan, who arrived earlier than them, and the lawyer Zhou hadn't left yet. It seems like their tire had a blowout, and the two of them were squatting beside the flat tire, working together with a jack to try and change it themselves.
Lu Yaoyao felt that her time was running out and didn't want to see this.
Cheng Zhimin's footsteps paused for a moment, and then, under Lu Yaoyao's shocked and unbelievable gaze, she gracefully walked over there.
Lu Yao yao's imagination runs wild, she thinks that Teacher Cheng would probably slap Shu Tinglan without hesitation if he were here.
At this moment, Shu Tinglan didn't pay attention to someone walking up beside him. He squatted down next to Zhou Ming and handed him tools. His mood seemed good, and he wasn't anxious or flustered about the sudden tire blowout.
"Are you sure you can change it yourself Would you like to call someone to tow it for repairs"
"Can you fix it It's going to blow again in a bit, isn't it"
"Your car is getting a bit old, you should think about replacing it."
Zhou Ming could bear it no longer and shouted in anger.
"Shut up! Back in the day, I used to take this thing on off-road trips all by myself. And let me tell you, every time something broke down, I fixed it myself."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a shadow approaching beside him. Both of them looked up together at the newcomer, and saw a lady with an elegant and noble bearing politely asking:
“Need a hand”
As soon as she spoke, Lu Yaoyao, who wasn't far away, could only describe it with shock. Was this still the Teacher Cheng she knew She didn't even tear into Shu Tinglan
The two people on the ground were also taken aback. Zhou Ming came to his senses first, his hands full of black, he waved his hand casually and politely replied.
"No, thank you."
Shu Tinglan treated him as a stranger, Zhou Ming replied, and she didn't speak again, continuing to lower her head and hand tools to Zhou Ming.
She was wearing a shirt and a skirt today. Because it was inconvenient to squat, she kept kneeling on both knees with an extremely unkempt appearance, sitting on her own feet and handing tools to Zhou Ming. The garage floor was covered with rubber, so it wasn't painful.
The key point is that she had her hair down today, not tied up. Because she had been looking down, her thick hair was messy and scattered across her face. Even when she looked up, she didn't see who it was.
Cheng Zhimin has always been extremely low-key. The only thing the outside world knows about her is a work ID photo, so no one knows her true appearance.
Zhou Ming and Shu Tinglan both thought she was a kindhearted and pretty passerby, so they ignored her and continued to change the tire while chatting.
"Your beat-up car got rear-ended yesterday It's totaled, so have your family member Zhuo Yu An get you a luxury car. I'll benefit from the good karma too."
"Fine, I'll have him just send you one Money is the last thing he worries about anyway." Shu Tinglan scoffed.
"Shouldn't he be filial to me Am I his master or his brother"
His skin was as thick as a city wall, Shu Tinglan's legs were aching from kneeling for so long. Zhou Ming happened to have taken off the old tire and was about to put on a new one.
Looking at Shu Tinglan's face, which was exceptionally pale, he couldn't help but use his own dark hand to wipe across her cheek. He swore this action had no ulterior motives; he truly treated her like a younger sister and couldn't resist teasing her a little. It was just like smearing someone's face with cream at a birthday party.
Shutinglan was furious and hurriedly wiped the dirt off her face with her hand, unaware that her hand was also black. As she wiped, half of her face became even darker.
"Could you two please hurry up"
That graceful voice sounded again beside them, and the two of them looked over together. They were still here
Cheng Zhimin pointed to her own car.
"It's blocked."
Her car was indeed blocked halfway by Zhou Ming's car, and she couldn't drive out. Zhou Ming only noticed this then and hurried over to...
"Sorry sorry, I'll be right there."
"It's okay, no rush." Cheng Zhimin replied, her eyes never leaving Shu Tinglan.
Shu Tinglan also smiled apologetically at her, only feeling that she looked a bit familiar, but couldn't say where. She took out a wet tissue to wipe her face.
Her skin is fair, and she usually just wears a light layer of sunscreen makeup. After wiping with wet wipes, her skin doesn't change at all, instead it looks even better with a hint of redness.
Not until she finished wiping it away did she see Lu YaoYao, who had been trying to hide but couldn't escape her gaze from afar.
"Yao Yao, come here and see if they need help." Cheng Zhi Min called Lu Yao Yao over.
Lu Yaya faced death calmly.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! that it was bleeding again. But she couldn't feel the pain, which made her nervous. At the same time that she wondered what Song Mama wanted from her, there was also a sense of happiness. This was wh...
