Chapter 386: 386. Beautiful Female Persuader

"No, I refuse!" Bi Shan, the youngest daughter of the Bi family, glared, shaking her head like a rattle drum.

She’s seen all those newspapers and TV reports about him.

That President Dai is a complete bastard.

A heartless man who abandons his wife and child, that’s him.

Bi Shan is definitely unwilling to be a spokesperson for such a jerk.

"Refuse? You have to agree even if you don’t want to! As a member of our investment office, you can’t escape this whether it’s for business or personal reasons. Unless you want to watch your dad get stripped of his position as the head of the city’s investment office for poor performance!" Director Bi slammed the table, angrily explaining to his daughter the importance of securing this investment for them.

"This..." Bi Shan was dumbfounded. When it comes to her dad’s position, there’s no way she could avoid it no matter how reluctant she was.

After all, she’s not the sharpest tool in the shed, and getting into a vocational college was already a huge effort.

Working at the investment office she doesn’t care for was also for the purpose of leaning on her father’s influence.

If this big tree really fell, who would she rely on to boss people around at work?

"Alright, for my dearest dad, I’ll reluctantly go through this. But Lian En was always a blockhead in school, completely impervious to influence. Although we’ve been classmates for three years and sat in front and behind each other, we’re just familiar faces, not really friends. Dad, you shouldn’t get your hopes up too high." Although her IQ isn’t great, Bi Shan’s emotional intelligence is quite high.

She knows that although her dad loves his daughter, he’s also never been the most reasonable person when angry.

To avoid being the scapegoat after failing the task, she wisely stated the downside upfront.

In a ’depressed’ mood, declining visitors, Lian En, sipping mom-made bone soup and watching his little brother being irresistibly cute, was baffled: "Bi Shan heard I was sick and came specially to see me?"

Oh, high school classmate, sat in front and behind each other for three years.

But, I barely have any connection with her, right?

"Yes, casual pants, camel coat. High heels, long hair. About five foot five, big eyes and eyebrows, quite talkative girl. Heard that a lot has happened to you lately, causing you to fall ill, so she brought a fruit basket to see you." Lianshan laughed, describing the self-proclaimed Miss Bi Shan’s appearance and attire in detail.

Meanwhile, his eyes were glued on his eldest son, trying to figure out if this visitor might be a future daughter-in-law based on his micro-expressions.

Not understanding why at just twenty-one and not thirty-one, his dad was so eager for him to get a partner, Lian En helplessly held his forehead.

He emphasized seriously that while Bi Shan was indeed a classmate, in three years they hadn’t exchanged over a hundred sentences, maintaining an incredibly pure classmate relationship.

"Yes, pure, pure. Dad didn’t say you two weren’t pure, right? Heh, the girl came all the way to sincerely see you. Your mom and I won’t disturb you, we’ll take little Yanzi to check on the test field. You treat the guest well at home!" Lianshan laughed perfunctorily, decisively leaving with his wife and younger son out the door.

People are purehearted these days!

Without any thoughts beyond friendship, why would a well-off young lady come alone to a young man’s home?

Lianshan, who didn’t believe it at all, grabbed Shuzhen and cradled Lian Li, leaving without giving Lian En time or opportunity to stop them.

Lian En, what can he do?

The burden tossed by dad has to be picked up despite reluctance!

But this Bi Shan, who caused his dad to tease, mom to mock, and even little brother to make a big funny face at him better have something important.

Otherwise...

He thought it was another passionate confession, trying to show care and affection during his ’low point’, aiming to develop a warm relationship.

Since high school, he’s been through plenty of such experiences and even prepared a highly efficient rebuttal to gracefully refuse an admirer while preserving their dignity.

In the end, after chatting for a while, it turns out she came as an envoy for that scumbag dad of hers?

Lian En’s light smile froze, his gaze at Bi Shan sharpened like a knife: "Bi Shan, are you done? If so, please leave and don’t come again."

"Lian En, I... I know my request is really imposing. But since I joined the investment office, carrying the heavy burden of attracting investment for our hometown, I must do my job conscientiously, right? President Dai is willing to invest 30 million to build a 21-floor shopping mall in the city center. This will absolutely become a landmark building in our city, receiving high attention from city leaders, who have ordered us to cooperate with all of President Dai’s requests to promote this investment.

I, I have a duty too!" Bi Shan spread her hands helplessly, looking totally forced.

God knows, she also particularly disapproves of Dai Weiguo’s conduct, okay?

But since it concerns our work and future, she has no choice but to pinch her nose and go ahead!

The young girl’s big, watery eyes stared at him without blinking, full of plea.

Anyone else with a soft spot for beauty might get lenient, accommodating in a tricky situation for a beautiful woman’s sake.

After all, it concerns the development and construction of our hometown!

When it comes to Lianshan though, the coldness in his tone didn’t diminish one bit: "Since Miss Bi Shan knows she’s being imposing, then don’t continue. To let such an uncomfortable person ruin the already distant classmate bond until nothing remains, that would be inappropriate, wouldn’t it?"

Uh...

Bi Shan was stunned, did this mean that continuing would lead to a complete fallout, making even future meetings difficult?

Seeing Lian En’s stubborn and serious face, Bi Shan wisely chose not to push further.

If directness doesn’t work, try the indirect route.

With a sudden new idea, Bi Shan clasped her hands together begging: "Yes, you’re right. But it’s difficult to disobey both orders from above and from parents, I’m totally helpless too. How about you, dear old classmate, make it convenient for me? Not that you have to agree to anything, just let me make a couple of futile trips a day, getting shut out multiple times. At least let my superiors and colleagues see my efforts.

This way, it’s easier for me to explain, and you won’t have to face different persuaders every day, isn’t that right?

It’s a mutually beneficial thing, could you cooperate a bit?

Like you’ve planted me as a mole on President Dai’s side, allowing you to keep track of his movements and remain ever unbeatable."
