The Female CEO Falls in Love with Me

After spending these days together, he could still recognize Wen Qianyi's handwriting. This was clearly written by her own hand, and "barbarian" obviously referred to him, as if she knew he would come and left it there in advance. Moreover, this note should have been placed from the outside, not from the inside, which indicated that she was really not at home; otherwise, opening the door would naturally cause it to fall.

Li Yan lit a cigarette, finding it a bit amusing. Wen Qianyi was indeed Wen Qianyi! She could even plan for this, it seems she understands me quite well.

The phrase "unsure when I'll be back" was clearly to prevent him from waiting at the door. With this message, she was obviously prepared, even if he waited here, he would not find her.

He went downstairs again, checked the parking lot in the community, and Wen Qianyi's Lotus sports car was indeed not parked there, suggesting she had really gone out.

What to do? In modern times, phones are very important tools. If it's powered off, the person becomes difficult to find. Sure, while you can run away, you can't hide the temple, but what use is there in finding an empty temple?

Sitting in the car, Li Yan carefully pondered.

Given Wen Qianyi's calculated mind, since she knew he would come here, any other places he could think of or go to, she would definitely think of first, so there's no point in searching there. Moreover, she left the work task through Ye Jiahong, aside from mischief and making things difficult, was there no other purpose?

Perhaps, she also wanted to see if I could complete it?

Thinking of this, Li Yan began to look at those materials again.

A man must not be weak!

Not in any aspect!

Previously, he didn't care about appearing weak in the company because there was no one he cared about there, even though his wife, Zhang Yurong, was the company president, he didn't care either.

But now things are different. President Zhang Yurong, supervisor and partner Wen Qianyi, executive director Hai Fu, colleague Huang Ying, all are people he cares about. Not to mention making significant contributions to the company, at least he mustn't let them down! Which woman doesn't hope her man is capable? For men who aren't, the most they get is sympathy, not love.

"Alright, let's consider it your test, I'll take it on!"

When he was at the company, he just casually skimmed through the documents, but now he carefully reviewed them one by one. Then, he muttered a few words to himself and drove away.

...

Wen Qianyi is truly a business elite. The work she left behind isn't particularly difficult for her, but it's quite troublesome for the average person. It's actually not a major business; mainly just negotiating and communicating contract details. If she handled it, a few phone calls, a face-to-face discussion perhaps, would settle it. But for Li Yan, who has never handled such matters himself, it's undoubtedly a difficult task—after all, despite the backing of the Paradise Group, he himself lacks a reputation!

Lacking reputation, lacking influence, trustworthiness becomes an issue. Even if trustworthiness isn't a problem, the other party wouldn't grant you any face, and the results could be very dismal. In such a case, even if you win the business, there might be no profit in the end.

After finishing reading, Li Yan left, but didn't return to the company.

He isn't opposed to seeking help; asking for help is not shameful. According to his usual principle, achieving the goal is what matters, the means do not have rankings!

However, he doesn't want to seek help from the company. Firstly, there are competitive relationships among colleagues. He was previously seen as a slacker, an idle person by everyone, and is now considered Wen Qianyi's person, so they certainly wouldn't genuinely help him. Secondly, he also doesn't want the company people to assist him, as that would immediately inform Wen Qianyi and result in being ridiculed.

He drove directly to a really prosperous area in the city center and found the city's largest law firm in a well-known building.

Looking at Li Yan holding a computer and documents, the receptionist at the law firm found it hard to believe what he was saying and smiled, asking, "Sir, you must be mistaken. Lawyer Zheng has a fully packed schedule, he couldn't possibly have arranged an appointment with you. But it's no problem, our firm has many renowned lawyers, whatever your needs are, we can arrange for a suitable lawyer for you. How about you talk to our consultation department first…"

Li Yan shook his head, "Please contact him. I just spoke to him on the phone, why would I lie to you?"

All the receptionists felt he was being a bit unreasonable. Judging by his attire, demeanor, and mannerisms, he didn't seem like someone who could afford Lawyer Zheng's fees. It's like boasting without paying any tax! Such an audacious claim.

However, despite the prejudice in their hearts, they maintained professional smiles on their faces. Seeing Li Yan insisting, she dialed a phone number.

Moments later, she politely said, "Mr. Li, right? I am very sorry, I confirmed with the lawyer's secretary, but there's no appointment for you. Perhaps… you're not aware, but Attorney Zheng's appointments are typically scheduled far in advance, even if you did speak with him over the phone, it wouldn't be possible for him to see you now. Would you like us to arrange a lawyer suitable for you instead?"

These words were already a polite indication: you simply can't meet him, so let's find you a more affordable lawyer!

In fact, it wasn't the first time they'd encountered such situations. Many first-timers, referred by acquaintances or for various reasons, only knew Lawyer Zheng's renowned name but were unaware of his exorbitant hourly rate.
