Chapter 446: Lunch Meeting.

-Jade Hotel-

” Madam, would you like to have anything?” The waitress asked politely while pouring a glass of water for the woman who had been waiting in the reserved private dining room for the past 30 minutes.

Jiang Ru looked up from her phone and awkwardly smiled, noticing the expectant look of the waitress who was waiting to take her order.

She cleared her throat and shook her head before putting a forced smile on her face, ” I am waiting for someone. We will place our order once he arrives.”

After the waitress left, Jiang Ru slammed her phone on the large, circular table in annoyance. ” WHAT THE HELL IS THIS? HOW CAN HE BE LATE WHEN HE IS THE ONE WHO ARRANGED THIS MEETING?”

A few days ago, her secretary received a call from the office of Han Corporations. It was from the secretary of Han Zihao.

It was because Han Zihao wanted to meet her and his secretary had called her office to arrange a meeting between the two.

.....

She was so shocked when she found out that Han Zihao wants to meet her and immediately said ‘Yes’ to the meeting request with him.

How can she miss this GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY to meet with him? That too....alone.

She has always wanted to meet with him and talk about business and many other things but has never gotten a chance to do so.

Even at business parties, Han Zihao has always been so busy and surrounded by people that it was hard to approach him.

And she wanted to meet him alone, rather than in front of all the people who are doing their best to impress him.

However, she got the chance to greet him when he came to the Jiang Corporations to meet Grandfather Jiang.

It was a brief meeting where they only exchanged greetings and then he left. Did she leave an unforgettable impression on him at that time that he wanted to meet her?

She was shocked when she found out that Grandfather and he knew each other. It also relieved her and made her happy that there is some connection between the two.

That connection is Grandfather Jiang himself.

She failed to find out how he knew Grandfather Jiang that he came to the Jiang Corporations to meet him but who cares?

As long as she gets to meet him, doesn’t it mean everything is going according to her plan? If she joins hands with Han Zihao, then her power in the company will be unmatchable and it wouldn’t be difficult to get other major shareholders to her side as well.

Then it wouldn’t matter if Grandfather Jiang does not want to hand over the company to her. Because it will eventually come into her hands then.

Jiang Ru took a deep breath and tried to calm her worked-up nerves. She cannot mess up during this meeting.

Whatever the reason for this meeting, she needs to do her best and gain his attention to make her plan work.

Jiang Ru exasperatedly looked at the time and could feel her blood boiling in anger once again. It’s been more than 30 minutes since she has been waiting for him and he hasn’t arrived yet.

His secretary’s phone is unreachable and she cannot understand if this is how the President of Han Corporations behave when attending ‘Important Meetings’.

” Calm down Jiang Ru. Let’s just bear this for today. After today, it will be you who will make him wait for you. After all, all men are the same.” She smirked and assured herself by reminding herself that all men in this industry are the same and want the same things.

She was sure that Han Zihao wouldn’t be much different from the other businessmen either. It wouldn’t be much difficult to seduce him and use him to make her plan successful.

Thinking about it, she started to feel confident about herself and adjusted the short white dress that she was wearing when the door of the private dining room was pushed open and Han Zihao, who was wearing a dark gray checked three-piece suit entered the room.

Han Zihao stood at the entrance of the room and looked around the dining room when his eyes fixated on the woman who was wearing a white short dress and was smiling at him pleasantly.

He looked at her with his expressionless face and nodded at her in greeting.

“Ms. Jiang Ru, Sorry to make you wait. I hope I am not too late.” He said indifferently as he walked towards the table and sat opposite her.

Jiang Ru was surprised when she saw Han Zihao entering the room and was standing up to greet him but was caught off guard when he directly went towards his seat and sat on his chair.

She was extending her hand for a handshake but could not help but smile awkwardly when he did not notice her hand and sat on his chair without responding to her greeting.

She awkwardly smiled and retracted her hand as if nothing happened.

” Ah, Not at all! I also....just arrived a few minutes ago. I was just checking the menu. You arrived just in time.” She lied while showing him the menu that was on the table.

She does not want to tell him that she is waiting for him for almost an hour now. It will be embarrassing to mention that because unlike her, he appeared to be perfectly normal and indifferent to the whole situation.

However, strangely she did not feel bad about it. Seeing his handsome face from close was enough to dissipate all the frustration that she was feeling a while ago.

“Mr. Han, should...we....order something? I heard that the food here is delicious.” Yang Ning asked to break the ice between the two. Since they are here for a lunch meeting, it would be better to discuss things while eating.

At least it will be less awkward. More than that, she was starving because she did not even have breakfast in the morning.

” Skip me from this one. I already had lunch.” He said coldly, causing Jiang Ru to look at him in disbelief. He was the one who called her for a lunch meeting yet he came after having his lunch.

It’s blatantly rude and inconsiderate!

“Ah? Is...is that so? Then.... should we get on work directly?” Jiang Ru was forced to change the subject to save her face in front of him.

How can they not have lunch during a lunch meeting? That’s so ridiculous.

“Of course! We’re here for work after all.” Han Zihao said, crushing all the hopes of Jiang Ru.

While Jiang Ru was feeling awkward to see the cold and indifferent Han Zihao, Feng Sheng who was standing outside the dining room face palmed himself in embarrassment.

He could not understand why Han Zihao was treating this woman so rudely.

Because after setting the time of the meeting, he went to meet Xu Nuan at her office and is coming after having a hearty lunch with her.

After being an hour late, how can he even act as if he has been late for only ten minutes? Why did he even have lunch if he needed to attend the lunch meeting?

Even though Han Zihao did not tell him any reasons for him acting this way, he could tell that something is not right.

Otherwise, there was no reason for Han Zihao to be a jerk to someone he wanted to work with.
