However, when Zhu Fei opened the group chat later, he was surprised to find that there were only five people in it.

In addition to the four accounts clearly marked as staff members of the organizer, the remaining name was particularly eye-catching - Lu Huaijin, the legendary sponsor giant, was also among them.

The person in charge of the organizer almost immediately @ed Zhu Feiwan in the group, and told her in an official yet friendly tone that the latest updates of all competitions would be shared in the group from then on, and hoped that she would stay tuned and not easily leave this communication platform.

Faced with this sudden formal notice, Zhu Feiwan did not hesitate too much. He lightly swiped his finger and a simple and clear OK gesture appeared on the screen to show that he had received and agreed.

Just as she was about to continue burying herself in her design sketches, her cell phone rang again at an inopportune time. This time, it was a private message reminder.

"Ms. Zhu, as the direct sponsor of this fashion contest, I am personally very interested in the selection of models. I think this issue is worth a private meeting to discuss in depth. What do you think?"

Lu Huaijin's message seemed polite but direct, revealing his desire for control.

Zhu Feiwan stared at the words on the screen, his eyes slightly narrowed.

Even in such a businesslike context, Lu Huaijin could not hide his constant attention and curiosity towards her.

She sighed softly and typed a reply on the keyboard: "Sure, please contact my assistant to arrange it. I'm really busy here."

Lu Huaijin felt mixed emotions when he received this reply. Her word "busy" was so distant and cold that he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

No matter how busy she is, can she ever be on par with a president like him who needs to handle all matters big and small in the group?

Asking him to connect with an assistant is really too arrogant.

Lu Huaijin shook his head, a playful gleam in his eyes, as if he was planning his next move.

……

In the blink of an eye, an hour passed quietly, and in the spacious and grand conference room of the Lu Group, a different scene was unfolding.

The interior decoration is extraordinarily luxurious. The huge crystal chandelier casts soft light on the conference table that is more than ten meters long. The table is empty, waiting for the upcoming important meeting.

Lu Huaijin leaned lazily on the boss chair, with his long legs casually crossed.

Lu Lili, who was sitting opposite Lu Huaijin, seemed uneasy.

This was not only her first time to participate in a meeting of such scale, but also her first face-to-face communication with this business tycoon with a complicated reputation in the outside world.

Although Lu Huaijin has a reputation as a playboy in the outside world.

But the majesty he exudes at this moment cannot be underestimated.

"Our selection criteria for models are really only for those with single eyelids?"

Lu Huaijin said as he slowly pulled out a cigar.

Liu Kuan beside him immediately stepped forward and lit the expensive cigar skillfully. Lu Huaijin lightly held the cigarette butt and took a deep breath. Then light blue smoke rose from his mouth, and the conference room was immediately filled with a faint nicotine scent.

Lu Lili nodded slightly, with a hint of nervousness in her voice: "Yes, this is a specific requirement based on Wanwan's design concept."

Her answer seemed a little stiff.

After all, this condition is indeed quite different from the perspective of outsiders.

In fact, Lu Huaijin's attention to model selection was just a cover. His real intention was to take this opportunity to get closer to Zhu Feiwan.

So he pretended to be serious and made a request: "You need to give me a good reason, otherwise, I will have to directly invite your boss to discuss this matter with me in detail."

Facing Lu Huaijin's deliberate embarrassment, Lu Lili pursed her lips. As to why she only chose single-eyelid models, she really didn't have a definite answer, so she could only bite the bullet and respond: "My boss is very busy, and every decision she makes must be closely related to the theme of this design. As a sponsor, are you too concerned about specifics?"

While speaking, Lu Lili tried her best to remain calm.

Lu Huaijin raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced sharply at the woman in front of him who seemed to be a little tactless.

If he hadn't taken Zhu Feiwan's face into consideration, he would have asked his bodyguards to kick her out long ago.

"Busy? What is she busy with?"

There was amusement in his tone.

Lu Lili suddenly blurted out: "Wanwan is getting married soon! So naturally there are many things to prepare!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that she seemed to have leaked information that she shouldn't have, and she hurriedly covered her mouth, looking extremely embarrassed.

"It looks like today's meeting is over. Goodbye."

Lu Huaijin said this coldly, and Lu Lili seemed to be relieved. She stood up hurriedly, packed up the documents in a hurry, and hurriedly left the meeting room.

……

At the same time, Zhu Feiwan was concentrating on making cakes in the kitchen at home.

Within an hour, the oven was filled with a whole basket of small and exquisite desserts.

"Miss Zhu, your cooking skills are amazing. These cakes look even more tempting than those in the dessert shops outside!"

Aunt Liu on the side was full of praise, her words were full of sincere appreciation.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Feiwan smiled brightly: "Thank you for your compliment. I'm almost floating with joy because of your compliment."

She said this in an exaggerated manner, causing people around her to laugh.

Aunt Liu sheepishly placed her work side by side with Aunt Zhang's. In comparison, Zhu Feiwan's cakes were not only uniform in size and full in shape, but each one was like a work of art.

The cake on the other side was uneven and looked a bit amateurish.

"It doesn't matter. We can just treat those who look inferior as dinner. You will get better and better with more practice."

Zhu Feiwan said tolerantly, not caring about the wasted flour.

The two aunts were deeply touched by Zhu Feiwan's understanding. They felt relaxed and happy to be able to work in such an environment.

On the other hand, Lu Lili, who had just "escaped" from the Lu Group, ran straight to the kitchen to find water as soon as she returned to the familiar Qinyuan. Her throat seemed to be on fire, craving for coolness.

She drank a whole glass of ice water in one breath, and with a satisfied sigh, she gradually calmed down.

"How was the conversation with Lu Huaijin?"

Zhu Feiwan asked casually while kneading the soft dough.

Lu Lili blushed, lowered her head, secretly glanced at Zhu Feiwan, and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "We only said a few words. He...his aura was too strong. I was so nervous sitting opposite him, especially when he kept asking why we chose a single-eyelid model. My mind went blank and was buzzing. He even said that if he didn't get a satisfactory answer, he would talk to you directly...so I ran back before the conversation was over."

"Don't be nervous. Don't pay attention to him. He just likes to cause trouble."

Zhu Feiwan comforted her gently, and then suggested, "Go wash your hands, let's make a cake together?"

"okay!"

Lu Lili readily agreed.
