Chapter 369 Nothing is a coincidence

"When?"

"Tomorrow, it's a holiday."

"Don't you, Mr. Wei, go traveling during the holidays?"

"Why would a boss like this join in the fun?" Li Yan laughed. "Isn't he free to go wherever he wants to go? Who does he need to ask for leave from?"

"Yes..."

"Besides, he doesn't have much time to be at home recently. He flies around all the time. It's going to be tough if he doesn't return to his family."

Lin Zhiyuan showed a lewd expression, "Mr. Yan, you know a lot about it..."

Li Yan smiled and said, "It's good to know about President Wei's recent situation."

"In what capacity do you intend to meet with Mr. Wei?"

The little fat guy is getting more and more demanding.

“The de facto helmsman of future technology.”

Obviously, this answer made Xiaopang a little disappointed.

"Do you want to go with Senior Wei?"

"of course."

"Then how would you introduce Senior Wei? For example, how did you two meet, how did you attend the art performance together, how did you eat the cake..."

"my classmate."

"Damn, that's right, you two are classmates now!" Xiaopang sighed while shaking his head.

"Very reasonable, isn't it?"

"It's unreasonable." Wei Yunzhi looked directly into Li Yan's eyes and said.

On October 10, Li Yan met Wei Yunzhi by the familiar Baijiang River.

The preparations for this meeting were very simple. Wei Yunzhi sent a message asking "Boss Li, will you be more relaxed during the National Day?" Li Yan said "Okay, let's meet then," and it was done.

But Wei Yunzhi didn't expect Li Yan to take the initiative to ask to meet Wei Yili, although she also took the initiative to tell Li Yan that her extremely wealthy father would be back during the National Day.

Li Yan didn't expect that Wei Yunzhi would ask the same question as Xiao Pang as soon as he got out of the subway:

"In what capacity are you going to meet my father?"

Li Yan used the same answer: "Future Technology Boss."

"We went together."

"Classmate, that's very reasonable."

Then Wei Yunzhi stared at him and rejected it.

Today, Wei Yunzhi wore a light blue skirt and a white shirt, looking quite sunny and energetic.

It’s strange to say, there is only one year difference between the first year of high school and the third year of junior high school, but they look like they have grown a lot.

"Are you a little taller?" Li Yan asked.

"One meter sixty-six."

“It’s quite high.”

The beautiful girl looked at the 1.85-meter-tall "classmate" in front of her and chose to skip the topic, "Don't say classmate."

"Then what do you hope for?" Li Yan asked.

"What a good friend."

"Is it really okay to tell your dad?"

Damn it! As soon as Li Yan asked this question, she knew she had dug a hole.

Sure enough, Wei Yunzhi raised the corner of his mouth and showed a very playful expression: "What's the problem?"

"no problem."

Having said this, Wei Yunzhi stopped standing in front of Li Yan, and the two of them began to walk towards their destination.

This is Baijiang CBD, the rapidly developing new urban center of New Taipei City.

The two of them had a great time visiting Baijiang New Town across the river during the Lantern Festival.

Now they are surrounded by tall buildings, each with a well-known name.

The tall building with a silver-white overall appearance and occupying a piece of garden land alone is the headquarters of Yili Group.

Although it is not the highest, it has a strong presence in a unique way.

In this place where every inch of land is valuable, instead of doing business, it is used for landscaping. A gorgeous silver and white color scheme is added among the blue tones, and there is no sign hanging yet.

It does have a bit of a "keep away from strangers" meaning.

Li Yan was dressed more formally today, wearing a white shirt and black trousers, both of which were relatively expensive custom-made.

When outsiders saw the appearance and dress of these two people, they thought they were going to perform.

"It's so grand." Li Yan exclaimed as he looked at the noble silver-white building.

"You will also have a building that belongs to future technology."

The little beauty is really good at talking.

"I went through several buildings."

You're going to pretend all this?
"Speaking of which, why were you unwilling to explain to me...your life experience?"

Although she asked the question, Li Yan could probably guess what Wei Yunzhi was thinking.

They should be some very Versailles statements, such as "I'm afraid you are just making friends with me for my money", "I'm worried that you don't dare to talk to me", "I hope we can maintain sincere communication" and so on.

That's understandable.

Li Yan imagined that if he knew from the beginning that Wei Yunzhi was the daughter of the president of Yili Group, he might not be able to maintain a calm attitude and communicate with her.

Compared to now, Li Yan at that time was still relatively inexperienced.

Wei Yunzhi also knew that she would be asked this question sooner or later. She just sighed softly, then stopped and stared at Li Yan very seriously:

"I'm afraid you're more interested in my dad."

Dabuluo-ehchi-eh-shave——WHAT?

The two chatted about this and that, and walked to the bottom of the Yili Group building.

“Isn’t this building usually open to the public?”

"It's not that the staff inside can't get into the elevator, it's just that there's nothing fun to do here."

Li Yan was stunned. "Is this all the office space of Yili Group?"

"That's it."

"Then how do we..." Before she finished asking the question, Li Yan knew she had said something stupid.

As soon as they reached the booth, the security guard came out to greet them and led them to the gate.

The security guard was quite self-satisfied. Apart from a glance at Li Yan at the beginning, he did not observe her even once during the whole process.

Very professional.

As Wei Yunzhi stepped onto the stairs, the access control system captured her pretty face and the glass door opened automatically.

The security guard just now signaled to another security guard in a suit at the door to take over, and he immediately said a few words into the intercom.

The decoration inside is relatively modern and not very magnificent, but the various stones used in the lobby are very high-grade, the construction technology is also fine enough, and the overall sense of luxury is very prominent.

Li Yan looked around and was about to say something when he suddenly heard the receptionist on the right bow to them and say:

"Hello Miss."

What the hell? Li Yan looked at the receptionist in surprise. She was a beautiful woman with a nice figure and a very professional smile.

Wei Yunzhi smiled and nodded, but his feet moved faster.

At the same time, a middle-aged man in a white shirt holding a walkie-talkie was jogging over from the other side.

"Good morning, Miss." The middle-aged man even wore white gloves.

"Good morning, Uncle Kong. Just press the elevator button for us later."

The two walked smoothly to the elevator entrance, and the three employees who were originally chatting at the elevator entrance dispersed.

Li Yan knew that it was Uncle Kong who made the gesture.

What's going on? Everyone get out of the way when the young lady arrives?
What great material for a novel! Otherwise, why do we say that novels come from life?

There are six elevators, one has a red light on, and five are above the 20th floor. Li Yan thought he would have to wait for a while.

But then Uncle Kong took out a card from his pocket and tapped the red light on the elevator, and it immediately turned blue.

Wow, there's a special elevator for VIPs? "The chairman is on the 12th floor." Uncle Kong pressed the elevator button but didn't leave.

"Uncle Kong, just keep busy."

"fine."

"I'll explain it to my dad, we can just go up by ourselves."

Uncle Kong looked embarrassed.

"Alright alright."

The three of them walked to the twelfth floor in silence. Uncle Kong then watched Wei Yunzhi in the elevator as he opened the door of the chairman's office and walked in. Only then did he leave with peace of mind.

This floor contains not only the chairman's office, but also several other senior executives' offices, several conference rooms, and a circle of rooms with the word "Club" written on them - it is impossible to tell what is inside.

Li Yan did not expect Wei Yunzhi to open the door and walk in directly. His first meeting with this legendary business tycoon of Linjiang actually felt a little hasty.

Wei Yili is quite tall, neither fat nor thin, with a straight posture and a slicked-back hair style that is very common among CEOs.

He was standing in front of his bookshelf looking for a book and was not surprised by the sudden intrusion of his daughter and Li Yan.

It seems that this is not the first or second time that Wei Yunzhi has done this.

"Dad, look who's here?"

Wei Yili smiled, put down the book in his hand, took a few powerful steps forward, and stretched out his hand: "Li Yan, I am Wei Yili."

Not very arrogant...

"Hello, Mr. Wei, I'm Li Yan." Li Yan also extended her hand.

Only then did he see Wei Yili's appearance clearly: thick eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, very strong facial features, and lips that were a little too thin. But no matter what, a 40-year-old man in this state and with this kind of appearance and temperament could be described as handsome.

It’s definitely not a filter of money.

Directors, you deserved to lose when you were young...

What a protagonist script for this family! If I didn’t have a system, I would really be a supporting role.

However, this meeting was too ordinary. Li Yan initially thought that he would walk into a huge office. President Wei was sitting on the side near the floor-to-ceiling window, with his hands resting on the huge desk, his chin resting on his head, and looking at him with an extremely oppressive look.

As it turned out, the office was not too big. The curtains were drawn on the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the not-too-big desk was piled with various documents. It was nothing like the domineering president in TV dramas.

It looks more like a place where senior engineers work.

"Yunzhi, why don't you wait until tomorrow and invite Li Yan to dinner at home directly?"

"Who knows where you'll be tomorrow?"

There is resentment in his words!

"My dear, I promised to accompany you this weekend. When have I ever broken my promise?"

"weekend?"

"National Day...National Day." Wei Yili smiled awkwardly.

"Forget it. I'm not the main character today anyway. You guys can chat."

It was rare to see Wei Yunzhi behave like a willful princess, and Li Yan found it very interesting.

"Li Yan, I often hear Yunzhi mention you, and I've also seen you in many news newspapers. Today, I see that you are indeed a handsome man with extraordinary bearing." Wei Yili's voice was not low, but it was very penetrating.

"Mr. Wei, you are so kind. I have long heard of your great name. I am grateful for your help of 33.33 million yuan. I have always wanted to find an opportunity to visit you."

"What are you doing?" Wei Yunzhi showed a helpless expression, "I have heard of your names for a long time, would you please accompany me?"

Wei Yili was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, "My daughter is a bit willful and capricious, don't be surprised."

"No." Li Yan smiled and shook her head, "Actually, she's very gentle."

Then the expressions of both father and daughter changed.

Li Yan immediately stopped smiling and coughed twice, "Perhaps it's because my daughter feels safe and willing to reveal her true nature in front of her father."

Wei Yili laughed heartily again, "Come on, come on, I told them not to bother me today, come to the study and sit down."

Study... study? There was nothing surprising about that. It was normal to build a garden and a running track for Wei Yili on this floor.

As a result, Li Yan was stunned when he opened the door. It was not a study room at all, but a museum.

"Some of my small collections," Wei Yili said with a proud smile, "This is a small exhibition commissioned by the most famous curatorial company in Linjiang. The zoning, lighting, and flow lines are all very professional. I usually don't let anyone in."

"Here we go again. He introduces one guest to another every time one comes, but he never lets anyone in." Wei Yunzhi didn't give any face at all.

It was obvious that this powerful business tycoon had no idea what to do with his precious daughter.

"It's really professional." Li Yan gave him a chance, "Mr. Wei's collection is quite rich."

"I don't really have much appreciation ability." Wei Yili nodded, "But I have always been interested in art and literature. I usually buy anything I like."

I know you are very interested in literature and art, after all, you married a beautiful female poet.

I didn't expect Wei Yili was really interested in collecting. It's a pity that the painting was bought by Mr. Shen, otherwise I could have really looked forward to seeing it.

Unexpectedly, when Li Yan turned a corner, she was stunned on the spot.

Even Wei Yunzhi was stunned.

The painting hung in the center of this partition is of a dancing girl in a blue dress. The whole painting is deep blue.

The signature is the English letter "Y".

It was the "Blue Peacock" painted by Li Yan.

What was even more surprising was that there happened to be a person in the area who was doing a routine inspection of the collections. He was a tall and thin young man wearing a silver suit.

"Xiao Shen, you are usually responsible for helping me take care of my collections."

"Hello, Mr. Wei!"

"The young man is very energetic. You can't tell he's thirty, right?" Wei Yili said with a smile, "Xiao Shen, guess how old he is."

"Li Yan is underage, I know, awesome."

...Li Yan felt his brain was numb.

Wei Yunzhi stared at the painting in front of him, then gave Li Yan a very subtle look.

"Xiao Shen's father is very rich. This guy doesn't want to be a rich second-generation. He comes to my place every day and likes to go to auctions. Sometimes I ask him to help me shop." Wei Yili said as he walked to the front of "Blue Peacock". "Do you feel anything when you look at this painting?"

How the hell should I answer this? This is what I drew.

"You didn't remember?" Seeing the two of them in a daze, Wei Yili smiled and said, "Yunzhi, didn't you and Li Yan wear a blue skirt when you performed at the junior high school art festival? I saw this one at an auction before, so I bought it as a souvenir for you."

Wei Yunzhi's expression became more and more interesting.

"Um, Mr. Wei, how much did you spend on this painting?" Li Yan couldn't help himself.

Wei Yili said casually: "I gave Xiao Shen 700,000 yuan. As for whether he can make some money or lose money, it depends on his ability. I am too lazy to ask."

Master Shen chuckled.

Is that what you call making a little money? This painting was sold for only 150,000 yuan. You are so confused, Mr. Wei!
However, Li doesn't care much about these trivial matters now.

He was actually a little happy in his heart. He had been upset thinking that the painting was sold to a playboy, but it turned out that it was really bought by the father of the person in the painting.

Good things good things.

"The signature is also a y. What a coincidence." Wei Yili was not as "serious" as the little beauty said. Instead, he was very easy to talk to. "It just so happens that Guaiguai's name has a y."

Li Yan already wanted to leave here.

"Hey, Li Yan," Wei Yili walked over and patted Li Yan on the shoulder, "Your name also has a y in it."

Yes, do you know YY Bookstore? Some things in this world are just so coincidental.

"I also heard that you are Yang Chengzhang's disciple?"

Don't ask, don't ask...

"Do you have any works? I can buy yours!"

Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief. If he said here that this was his painting, it would be no different from a public execution.

Afterwards, he absentmindedly followed the enthusiastic CEO Wei around.

When Mr. Wei and Mr. Shen were having a heated discussion about how to place a certain object, Wei Yunzhi suddenly leaned close to Li Yan's ear:

"Did you draw it?"

"..."

The girl suddenly reached out and wiped Li Yan's forehead. "You're sweating so much, it seems like it's the end. Thank you."

This made Li Yan very nervous, and she sweated even more.

"Okay," after seeing that he had finished browsing his collection, Wei Yili contentedly proposed the next itinerary, "I'll take you to play golf, and we can chat for a while."
