Chapter 173 Charity Dinner
Shen Nian turned her head to look over, then quickly lowered her head.
How did she see Xiao Wu? Was JK Group on the invitation list too? She clearly didn't see the company's name!
Shen Nian suddenly panicked.
If Xiao Wu finds out later, Uncle will definitely know!
Although she was interning in the project department and working under Mo Ze, as a junior intern, she didn't actually have much direct interaction with Mo Ze.
Above her are team leaders, supervisors, managers, directors, and so on, layer by layer.
Moreover, she would try not to discuss her work with Moze. If you want to truly learn something useful, you can't rely on someone powerful for support.
Therefore, Shen Nian did not tell Mo Ze what she had been busy with these past two days.
If the older man found out she was working as a waitress, he'd probably be angry...
Thinking about it this way, she actually felt a little scared and didn't want Lu Yan to recognize her.
She stood still, and Lu Yan actually walked towards her.
As Lu Yan drew closer, Shen Nian pushed the liquor cart, ready to flee.
Upon seeing this, Lu Yan quickened his pace and blocked Shen Nian's path. "I just asked you to bring me some drinks, didn't you hear me? I'm dying of thirst."
Lu Yan picked up the champagne from the liquor truck and started drinking.
He just arrived and didn't participate in any of the previous activities; he's just here to show his face and donate some money on behalf of the company.
Companies of JK Group's caliber wouldn't be directly listed on the invitation list. The fact that they even showed up is a testament to the organizer's influence.
Shen Nian kept her head down, not daring to look up, for fear that Lu Yan would recognize her.
She was wearing a waitress uniform and a mask, so she figured the other person probably wouldn't recognize her.
After taking the champagne, Lu Yan showed no intention of leaving, standing next to the beverage cart and looking around.
Shen Nian's heart pounded, and she silently pushed the liquor cart, ready to slip away.
Her strange behavior successfully caught Lu Yan's attention.
He glanced at her, then suddenly spoke up, "Why do I feel like you look familiar? Lift your head and let me see you~"
Shen Nian kept her head down and didn't say anything.
Lu Yan raised an eyebrow, "A mute?"
Shen Nian was both amused and exasperated, but she still dared not speak and decided to pretend to be mute. She nodded and prepared to leave.
After pushing the liquor cart for a short distance, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Lu Yan had not followed.
Then he hurried to find the chairman of Shengshi Group.
If we find the person again, the waiter's work today will have been for nothing.
Fortunately, after pushing the beverage cart around, Shen Nian finally spotted the chairman of Shengshi Group in the rest area on the side of the banquet hall.
Shen Nian abandoned the liquor truck, pulled out the printed documents from under the truck, and hurried towards the chairman of Shengshi Group.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yanquan witnessed this scene.
Lu Xiaowu was drinking champagne when someone next to him started talking to him. He responded to them half-heartedly, his gaze fixed on Shen Nian's back.
Then she muttered to herself, "Why does he look so familiar?"
He felt a sense of familiarity when he was getting the drinks, and now, looking at this figure from behind, he felt even more familiar!
"Excuse me, I'll be right back." Lu Xiaowu put down the champagne and strode towards the rest area on the side.
Shen Nian walked up to the chairman of Shengshi Group. The chairman was sitting alone on the sofa, without any assistants by his side. Shen Nian stepped forward and took the initiative to speak, "Excuse me, Chairman Ren, I would like to take a few minutes of your time. I am an employee of the project department of JK Group. I would like to introduce our plan to you regarding the development and design of your company's Chengbei project."
The other party was not displeased with Shen Nian's sudden behavior. He looked Shen Nian up and down and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, young lady, the development of that project has already signed a letter of intent with another company. Although your JK Group is a big company, I can't breach the contract, right? Besides, tonight is a charity gala, and I don't want to talk about work."
He then got up and prepared to leave the rest area.
She didn't put on airs, nor did she question Shen Nian's words just because she was wearing a waitress's uniform; she simply politely declined Shen Nian's offer.
Shen Nian hurriedly stopped the other party, "I'm sorry, Chairman Ren, I know it's a bit presumptuous of me to bother you like this. Please take a look at my design plan and drawings first. If they are not suitable, I will definitely not bother you any further." As she spoke, she handed over the things in her hand.
Perhaps her sincere attitude touched the other party, so Mr. Ren did not leave immediately.
"Young lady, regardless of whether your proposal is good or bad, I really am not considering changing partners, so I'm sorry." The other party rejected Shen Nian again, and this time they were more direct.
Shen Nian knew that Shengshi Group had been cooperating with the company it had signed with for many years, and she had anticipated that the other party would not easily switch companies. She had prepared for this before she came. She also knew that continuing to pester them would only make them more disgusted.
Shen Nian left behind her design proposal and drawings, and smiled slightly, "I understand. I'm very sorry to bother you. I know the chances of changing your mind are slim, but I still urge you to accept this document. Perhaps it can give you some inspiration and help you make some demands on your current partners."
Shen Nian's actions were tantamount to giving away her design plans and drafts to someone else for free.
She placed the documents on the table and turned to leave.
Regardless, she made an effort and has a clear conscience.
After she turned around, the chairman of Shengshi Group picked up the documents on the table and started looking at them.
He never expected that a young girl could understand his ideas for developing the North City project. Preserving his and his wife's former residence was his original idea.
However, the current partner's proposal suggests demolishing the former residence, saying it might affect the overall project outcome, so he has been hesitant.
We haven't finalized anything with the other party yet.
The chairman of Shengshi Group carefully examined Shen Nian's design plans and blueprints...
Shen Nian had just turned around when she bumped into Lu Yan.
"Second sister-in-law?!" Lu Yan stared in shock at Shen Nian, who was dressed as a waitress, his eyes wide.
Shen Nian never expected that she could dodge the first day of the month, but not the fifteenth, and was still discovered by Xiao Wu.
"Second Sister-in-law, what are you doing here!" Lu Yan walked towards Shen Nian, turned around and looked at Shen Nian's strange outfit, "You... why are you dressed like this..."
Shen Nian gave an awkward laugh, "Hehe~"
Lu Yan stroked his chin. "Could it be some new type of cosplay?"
Shen Nian, “…”
Lu Yan stared at Shen Nian for a long time, "Second sister-in-law, could that waiter who was pushing the drinks cart just now be you?!"
Shen Nian continued to giggle, but she had already made her answer clear.
"I knew that guy looked familiar!" Lu Yan clapped his hands excitedly, then asked, "Second sister-in-law, what's going on with you? Working as a waitress at a hotel? My second brother is going too far! Doesn't he care about you while he's away on business? Didn't he hand over his salary?! I'm going to call him and give him a good scolding for you."
As Lu Yan spoke, he took out his phone, preparing to call Mo Ze.
