ook his head."To Senzhou!" he uttered the name with chilling coldness.Yi Muyang looked at him in shock, incredulous. "Go to Senzhou""Yes, I remember Ms. Shu's attitude towards you, it made me feel col...After the visit, the factory manager also came over and repeatedly apologized to Director Xiao, saying that his people had not done a good job in handling things and did not receive them. He also asked them to drive themselves here.

They are all businessmen, and they all say nice things on the surface.

Director Xiao smiled and said, it's okay.

The factory director then took them to visit other production lines in the district, after all, as a well-established food factory, its equipment, technology, and processes were all impeccable.

“Actually, our boss was very reluctant to sell. After all, it's a brand that has been built for decades. However, the boss has only one daughter who immigrated to New Zealand. As the boss is getting older, he just wants to enjoy life with his child, so he reluctantly agreed to the sale. Any company that acquires our Shijian (食匠) can make a direct profit.”

Director Xiao did not state his position, as always smiling and nodding. Shu Tinglan and Jiajia couldn't express any opinions either, just listening attentively. Jiajia occasionally said a few inconsequential words to liven up the atmosphere.

After touring the factory, the factory manager invited them to lunch, but Xiao director refused, saying he was too busy with work and would get together another time. No matter how enthusiastic the other party was, Xiao director always kept a polite smile in response, let alone outsiders, even Jiajia and Shu Tinglan couldn't tell what Xiao director was really thinking.

On the way back to the hotel, Jiajia couldn't help but speak up.

"Boss, what do you think"

"Is my opinion important" Director Xiao replied coldly.

“Of course, it’s very important. Whether the due diligence report ultimately passes depends on you,” Jiajia replied.

Director Xiao let out a cold snort:

"You've been following me for almost a year now, and you're still so naive My thoughts are irrelevant; what matters are the facts, the data. Have you investigated their annual purchase data, sales data, warehouse in-and-out data"

"Almost done, there are a few pieces of information I need to confirm at Shijian headquarters this afternoon." Jiajia saw that Director Xiao was getting angry and didn't dare to relax. She answered seriously.

"Tinglan went to see Jiagia this afternoon."

"Okay."

Shutinglan thought to herself that she was indeed slow on the uptake. Looking at Director Xiao's attitude towards Jiagia, he always seemed stern and harsh, scolding her without mercy on the surface. But in reality, Director Xiao had always been very indulgent towards Jiagia.

This afternoon, Director Xiao was busy at the hotel, probably looking into information about Zhuo Yuan Technology. Shu Tinglan and Jiajia went to Shijian for a meeting. As representatives of the acquisition party, they were warmly received by several management members. With Jiajia present, Shu Tinglan rarely had a chance to speak, so she simply settled down and reviewed her part of the due diligence again.

Before they knew it, the afternoon was over. Wang, the person in charge of the acquisition project for Shijiang this time, invited them to have dinner together. Besides them, there were also people from other cooperating institutions, such as evaluation agencies and financial accountants. Shu Tinglan and Jiajia naturally couldn't refuse.

Upon arriving at the restaurant, the group politely took their seats. Shu Tinglan, attending such a gathering for the first time, felt a bit out of place. In contrast, Jiajia was in her element, quickly becoming acquainted with the other collaborators and the management team of the culinary establishment.

All the other collaborating parties were male, so their law firm, with its two female partners, quickly became the center of attention.

"Lawyer Xia Shu, Lawyer Xia Jia, it's not easy, you can stand on your own at such a young age."

Shu Tinglan smiled in response. At this moment, a middle-aged man sitting opposite her smiled at her and spoke.

"Tinglan, don't you remember your Uncle Tao"

Uncle Tao

Shu Tinglan couldn't help but seriously look at the other person again, feeling a sense of familiarity. As she felt this, a feeling of unease and chaos washed over her. This was the reason she hadn't returned to Qining in many years - she inevitably would run into people she knew.ndong turned his head to look at the group of reporters, still unfazed.He remained silent, but his eyes held a sinister glint that filled everyone with fear.
