Sweet Time Only for You: The Entanglement between Mr. Lu and Miss Song-Chapter 330: All for Angie’s Sake
They sat waiting for about half an hour before Professor Qin Qing finally arrived, accompanied by Song Anqi.
Upon seeing her appearance, Lu Jihan and Shen Kang exchanged a glance, clearly understanding each other.
However, the two shared a tacit understanding and didn’t say much. They stood up, nodded slightly, and bowed to welcome Professor Qin Qing, guiding him to his seat.
Professor Qin, with an air of authority, said, "Let me declare first, I’ve decided to reconsider sitting down with you to renegotiate the contract entirely on the account of my beloved student, who whispered in my ear, pleading with President Lu on your behalf!"
Shen Kang, standing by, felt a bit dissatisfied with Professor Qin Qing’s attitude.
He wanted to voice something but was secretly stopped by Lu Jihan.
Lu Jihan shook his head, indicating that he should not speak recklessly.
Shen Kang had to swallow his words and brought out the pre-drafted contracts one by one.
"Professor Qin, these are all the contents of the contract books, please take a careful look."
"Hmm, let me have a look."
Professor Qin Qing, being over fifty years old and already presbyopic, received help from Song Anqi who quickly handed him his glasses.
Professor Qin Qing nodded contentedly, took the glasses, and opened the contract book.
After a thorough review, he stated, "Hmm, I’ve looked through it, I can sign the contract, but I have two conditions."
"Please go ahead," Lu Jihan nodded, waiting for him to continue.
"First, I request at least two domestic performances a year, plus at least three months of vacation."
"No problem," Lu Jihan immediately nodded.
"Second, I request autonomy in collaborations. For my own concerts, I have the right to decide with whom I will collaborate."
As a world-class conductor maestro, having the preferred partners is quite normal.
Lu Jihan nodded again, "Alright."
Upon receiving his affirmative answer, Professor Qin Qing nodded in satisfaction, turned to look at Song Anqi, and said, "My first collaboration choice is with my beloved student, Angie."
Hearing this, Shen Kang’s face slightly changed.
Not long ago, the BOSS had just publicly announced the termination of collaboration with Song Anqi. If they agree to Professor Qin Qing’s conditions, wouldn’t that be contradicting their own words?
He couldn’t help but voice out, "Professor Qin, I’m afraid this might..."
However, before he could finish his sentence, he was stopped by Lu Jihan.
"Shen Kang!"
He became stern, coldly warning Shen Kang and shot him a sharp icy gaze.
Shen Kang pursed his lips. Although a bit disgruntled, he heeded Lu Jihan’s warning.
After a moment of silence, he repressed his anger once again.
Lu Jihan politely addressed Professor Qin Qing, "Professor Qin, we at Mainland Group have no issues with your two conditions."
"Hmm, then I have no issues either, let’s sign the contract!"
Professor Qin Qing took out a pen and swiftly signed his name on the contract.
Subsequently, Lu Jihan also signed.
They exchanged contract books with each other.
Receiving the contract book in hand seemed to settle everything, and the tightly furrowed brows of Lu Jihan finally relaxed.
Afterwards, the four of them did not leave immediately but stayed for about half an hour, drinking tea.
Lu Jihan and Professor Qin Qing discussed some of their views on the international music scene.
Professor Qin Qing’s demeanor seemed much softer than before, his attitude no longer distant, occasionally nodding in agreement at Lu Jihan’s opinions.
Song Anqi remained uncharacteristically quiet, sitting poised, gazing dreamily at the man in front of her, silently contemplating how to win over this difficult man.
