Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Chapter 521: Subtle Relationship, Clashing Men and Women



Although somewhat skeptical, Xia Liu had spoken, and Li Zhong naturally could not ask further. So, the two of them went downstairs. Since a veteran driver from Binlai City was driving Sun Tao and the others, they arrived at Longyun Hotel rather quickly. This time, Sun Tao and nine other executives had come; they all were general managers at the Huaxia Branch. Usually, whenever there is a luxury store in a place, other luxury stores appear nearby. Thus, their coming together wasn't surprising. However, there were one or two people whom Xia Liu seemed not to have met before. Just as he was about to ask, Sun Tao took the initiative to greet him, "President Xia! These two were not at the site that day, but after hearing our proposal, they were very interested in moving their stores here." "I see, in that case, on behalf of Osmanthus Group, I welcome the two executives." "You are too kind, President Xia. On our way here, we kept hearing about Xia Liu's achievements; truly, a young hero emerging." "Hehe, you must be hungry after the long journey. Let's go in and eat something first, and we can check out the site in the afternoon," Xia Liu said with a smile. "That's very considerate of you, President Xia," Sun Tao replied on behalf of everyone. If it had been earlier, he would definitely have called Xia Liu a lifesaver. But well, Xia Liu had reminded him over the phone to mind the formality of his address, so Sun Tao understood. At the dining table, Xia Liu introduced Li Zhong to everyone. When they learned that this Li Zhong was the top leader of Hejing, Sun Tao and the others shook hands and chatted with him happily. Their future plans to open stores in Hejing were assured by the Osmanthus Group, and with Li Zhong's convenience, everything was settled. In response, Li Zhong also said a few appropriate words, causing Sun Tao and others to beam with smiles. After lunch, the group, led by Xia Liu, reached the commercial street. It was just a few minutes' walk. The Eastern District, being Xia Liu's stronghold, was still quite crowded for now, and one could stroll through it in just a few minutes. But before long, the commercial street alone could entertain one for a whole day. Upon reaching the commercial street, Sun Tao and the others immediately got excited. They were already determined to open stores here, and as soon as Xia Liu made his declaration, they all began sizing up and observing. Looking for spots suitable for their own shops. One of them was the general manager of Walmart Supermarket for Huaxia; he had it relatively easy because Xia Liu had arranged for the construction of a large supermarket, so the executive took a tour and then called his headquarters to have engineers come over the next day. As for the decoration workers, a few would come from there; the rest had to be recruited locally. This was not difficult for Xia Liu, as Gu Yi's and Gu Fangxia's team was now very familiar. If they were building around the industrial area, then they would have to pause. Currently, the commercial street was the priority for rapid development. After Xia Liu arranged for the workers, Sun Tao and the other executives also found suitable facades. After some more discussions, Xia Liu had everything settled. As for the cooperation, Xia Liu hadn't looked too much into it, delegating full responsibility to Thousand Faces Rose. "It's almost all set. Everyone can go back to the hotel to rest," Xia Liu said comfortably after sorting everything out. The crowd greatly appreciated Xia Liu's suggestion; they were not in a rush to return either. After hours on the plane and a long bumpy ride in the car. Having come to such a beautiful place like Hejing, they were bound to stay a few more days. It was almost dusk when the banquet ended. Sun Tao and a few executives simply threw up in the private room. This really made things difficult for some of the waitstaff. At that time, Manager Ye Ming came over, and Xia Liu informed him to have someone take care of the private room and also to leave a tip. Ye Ming understood perfectly, but from these little details, he could tell that Xia Liu was a president who understood human emotions. After sending Li Zhong home, Xia Liu walked to the Longteng Hotel. He randomly picked a car that was drivable in the garage to use temporarily. As for the things inside Binlai City, he would fetch them when he had free time. Just as he was passing the Eastern District and thinking about going back, he glanced at the company and noticed that the lights in the top-floor office were still on. "Could it be Rose hasn't left work yet?" With his curiosity piqued, Xia Liu turned and headed towards the office. After asking the security guard, sure enough, the guard said Rose was working overtime in the office. Xia Liu didn't disturb anything and quietly went up to the top floor. Through a piece of transparent glass at the doorway, he could see inside the office. Although the air conditioning was on in the office, the temperature outside had dropped to its lowest after nightfall, almost to the point of snowing. Yet Rose was still wearing that thin suit. Didn't she have pantyhose? She wasn't wearing them? Looking at the black pantyhose crumpled into a ball on the sofa, Xia Liu was puzzled. Could it be that she was mad at him and therefore decided not to wear them? Perhaps that was the case... Looking at her, she probably hadn't eaten all day. Somehow, staring at Rose's pure and beautiful face, Xia Liu felt a pang of heartache. Perhaps it was because he felt sorry for her not having lunch, yes, that must be it. After giving himself a calming pill, Xia Liu went down to the next floor and called the Longyun front desk to have them pack up a few dishes and bring them over. Setting his phone to silent mode, Xia Liu continued upstairs to watch Rose. Ten minutes later, his phone vibrated. Xia Liu quietly went downstairs and, sure enough, the delivery had arrived. After a brief thank you, Xia Liu carried the takeaway upstairs. Click! The moment Xia Liu opened the door, Rose immediately looked up. For some unexplained reason, their eyes met, and after a long while, Xia Liu couldn't help but admonish, "You'll work yourself to death this way." "Oh, you're concerned about me?" Rose propped her chin with both hands, her face filled with a teasing smile as she replied. "Of course! If you were to go down, who would be my assistant? Don't forget, you're supposed to be under me for a few years. It's only been less than three months; you shouldn't be thinking of ending your mission like this." "Pfft! So in your eyes, I can only be this?" Rose first chuckled, then cooed, her eyes turning moist, looking utterly pitiful. "Of course not, you're also my good friend Thousand Faces Rose. In the future, no matter the difficulty, just tell me, and I'll ensure a perfect solution is found." Xia Liu was actually quite afraid that Rose would start crying, so he immediately explained. "A difficulty? If I have one right now, could you help me?" Rose asked softly. p>"As long as I can do it, I will definitely help, without any doubt," Xia Liu said while he arranged the meal boxes. The next second, Xia Liu's action was forcibly stopped. Only to see Rose gripping his collar, her arm exerting force to slowly stand him up, then lowering her fair, delicate face...
