Reaching an Agreement
Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
Mei Shu said, “Mr. Li, I’ll get straight to the point. I know that one of your responsibilities at the Tax Bureau is to assist Director Wang in sorting out letters. So, you must have seen the anonymous letter regarding the suspicious accounts of the Mei Corporation, right?”
Li Si took a sip of coffee, confidently intertwining his hands on the table. “Miss Mei, my younger brother should have been your schoolmate in high school, right?”
He naturally referred to Li Zhen.
Mei Shu nodded with pleasure. “Yes, Li Zhen was in the next class, but we didn’t interact much.”
“It’s probably more than that.” Li Si cut to the chase, revealing their relationship. “It seems my brother had a crush on you for a while. But later, 1 don’t know why, there were several times he came home with injuries. When 1 asked him, he refused to say anything. After graduation, he kept himself locked in his room and wouldn’t come out. 1 thought Miss Mei would know the reason behind it.”
Mei Shu lowered her gaze, pondering how to respond.
But Li Si preempted her, saying, “If Miss Mei is willing to do me this favor and persuade my brother to come out sooner, I think handling the matter of the anonymous letter won’t be a problem. After all, Miss Mei would be doing a big favor for our entire family.”
Upon hearing this, Mei Shu’s eyes lit up. “Is it that simple?”
Li Si smiled knowingly. “Of course, but Miss Mei should also know that my brother’s father, my uncle, also runs a small business in the market. Although the company’s scale is not comparable to the Mei family’s, it’s possible that we’ll meet in the business arena in the future. When that happens, I hope Miss Mei will remember today’s favor and be generous. Perhaps our two families can have pleasant cooperation.”
“Definitely.” Mei Shu smiled and agreed.
Setting aside Li Zhen’s betrayal in her past life, there wasn’t much animosity between their families, and she saw no reason to hold on stubbornly. Moreover, Li Zhen himself had already been taught a lesson by her.
The conversation between the two went smoothly and jovially. After dinner, Mei Shu made plans to visit Li Zhen when he had time on the weekend. However, Mei Shu suspected that Li Zhen probably didn’t want to see her at all. Still, this didn’t prevent her from using it as a condition to get what she wanted.
Soon, it was time for Mei Shu to meet Lin He and Feng Mo as they had agreed to inspect the site setup for the competition.
After the incident with Feng Wei, Feng Mo’s view of Mei Shu changed. Fie thought she was indeed a child worth befriending, so he made an exception and designated Mei Shu’s company to handle the setup for this competition.
This dance competition was to select reserve members for the national team, so the scale of the competition was unprecedentedly grand. Every detail had to be meticulously planned.
Mei Shu valued this opportunity greatly. She had checked the site the night before she met them and corrected many unsatisfactory aspects. Therefore, today, she appeared confident and arrived at the competition venue at the same time as Lin He and Feng Mo.
As soon as Feng Mo got out of the car, Mei Shu warmly greeted him, “Ms. Feng, it’s an honor to participate in such a prestigious competition. If you have any suggestions for the site setup today, please feel free to speak up. We’ll definitely accommodate them.”
Feng Mo’s gaze towards Mei Shu now contained a hint of softness, unlike the sharpness when they first met. “With you overseeing it, I’m very reassured. Let’s go in and take a look now.”
Lin He also smiled at Mei Shu. “On the way, my mom said you’re very thoughtful and attentive. She believes she won’t regret entrusting this event to you on behalf of the organizer.”
“I won’t let Ms. Feng down. Please.” Mei Shu accompanied Lin He and Feng Mo on either side of them.
Once inside the building, the three of them took the elevator to the fourth floor.
Here, there was a spacious studio with lights, stage, and various mechanical effects, all meticulously arranged, more eye-catching than the most popular variety shows online.
Feng Mo was delighted with what she saw. With a genuine smile on her face, she said, “Well done. I want everyone to know that dancers should stand under the brightest lights, showcasing the beauty of their body and dance moves to the fullest. Many media outlets will come to report on this event. Have you prepared reserved spots for the journalists?”
Mei Shu replied, “Yes, they are located over here.”
She had set up the judges’ seats right in front of the stage, and on both sides of the judges’ seats were reserved spots for the media. This way, not only could the performers be clearly captured during the competition, but the judges could also easily be filmed. Of course, there would be professional photographers covering the entire event, so there would be no conflict between the two.
This was not a variety show that required post-production editing but a genuinely fair and just competition.
Mei Shu also hoped that the entire competition would be transparent, without any hint of personal bias.
She especially didn’t want a repeat of what happened during the last piano competition.
Feng Mo was very pleased with her arrangements and smiled approvingly, “You’ve done a great job. No wonder Xiao He has been speaking highly of you to me. You’re indeed very capable..”
