Chapter 310 202: Take Your Pick, They're All for You to See

"You're terrible. Let's get down to business."

Liang Shuhuo opened her laptop, pulled up her design drafts, and explained her design concept to Lin Jiang.

They talked for about half an hour, bringing that part of the discussion to a close.

As far as Lin Jiang was concerned, Liang Shuhuo's design direction was sound.

He was mostly satisfied. The only things that needed changing were minor details.

"That's the general direction. For the interior decoration and renovation, you should discuss it with Huang Youwei and He Jing. They're more professional in that area than I am."

"When are they available? I'd also like to talk with them and get the proposal finalized as soon as possible."

"They're available anytime. It's just a matter of me saying the word. It all depends on your schedule."

Liang Shuhuo propped her cheek on one hand, looking as bashful as a young girl. "I'm completely at the big boss's disposal."

Lin Jiang checked his watch. "It's almost lunchtime. I'll arrange for you all to meet first. You can decide on the specific time yourselves; I won't join."

"Then I'll have to trouble the big boss."

Lin Jiang called Huang Youwei and told him to bring He Jing to his office.

Just then, Lin Jiang's phone buzzed. It was a message from Lin Qiangwei, saying she had arrived at Berkeley.

Lin Jiang replied, telling her to wait downstairs and that he'd be there after he was done.

Less than a minute later, the two of them arrived at Lin Jiang's office.

"This is Liang Shuhuo, the designer in charge of the mall renovation project. You three will need to communicate about the specific details of the plan. You can decide on the next steps yourselves. I won't be involved from here on out."

"Understood, President Lin."

Liang Shuhuo shook hands with both of them, and introductions were made.

After a brief chat, the three of them left the office together, setting a meeting time on their way out.

But Lin Jiang wasn't concerned with these matters. He only needed to see the final proposal.

Liang Shuhuo left, but Lin Jiang didn't leave right away, because Lin Qiangwei had already arrived.

"You two can head back first."

"President Lin, just call us if you need anything."

"Okay."

Huang Youwei and He Jing left, and Lin Qiangwei walked over from behind.

She was wearing a white dress with black spots and a pair of black high heels, which fully showcased her incredible figure.

"President Lin is so busy. Am I taking up your precious time?" Lin Qiangwei said flirtatiously.

"Behave yourself. Stop flirting."

Lin Qiangwei gave a seductive smile. "Who was that young woman standing next to you just now? And that female manager isn't bad either. Great body, though not quite as good as mine."

As she spoke, Lin Qiangwei's expression turned suggestive. "Have you conquered them yet?"

Lin Jiang suddenly turned around and grabbed Lin Qiangwei's ass.

"Don't you think you talk a little too much?"

Being grabbed like that by Lin Jiang, Lin Qiangwei started to panic a little.

This was a mall, and his mall at that. Lin Qiangwei had thought she could tease Lin Jiang as much as she wanted, and he wouldn't dare do anything to her.

But she never expected him to be so bold, to dare to do something like this to her with so many people watching.

"I just wanted to talk more with President Lin."

Lin Jiang knew exactly how to handle women like Lin Qiangwei.

'Most women are like this. If you can't keep them in line, they'll just get bolder and bolder.'

'Once you use bold, forceful methods to put them in their place, they become as meek as little lambs.'

"President Lin, please, let go. So many people are watching."

"Still feeling brave?"

"I won't. I beg you, President Lin, please let me go."

Lin Jiang let go of her. "Let's go. What do you want to buy?"

"Stockings and lingerie."

A girlish smile appeared on Lin Qiangwei's face. "I saw a shop just now. Their stuff looked really nice. Come with me."

"Let's go."

At Lin Qiangwei's lead, the two arrived at a lingerie shop called SL.

The styles they sold inside were all quite bold, some even a bit extravagant.

"President Lin…"

Seeing Lin Jiang, the female store manager recognized him.

Lin Jiang wasn't surprised. He nodded. "Just carry on with your work. Don't mind us."

"President Lin, feel free to choose anything. We'll give it to you at cost."

"No need. You have your own costs to cover. I can still afford this little bit of money."

"Thank you for your consideration, President Lin."

After a few simple words, the two began browsing the store.

"See a set you like? I'll buy it."

"You're the one shopping. Just pick for yourself."

Lin Qiangwei tiptoed slightly, leaned in, and whispered in Lin Jiang's ear, "Although I'm the one buying, I'm going to be wearing it for you. You can pick whatever you want. I can pull off any style."

"You sure?"

"Don't doubt my ability to handle it."

'Finally, a chance to really let loose.'

The two of them wandered around the shop. With an opportunity to have some fun, he certainly wasn't going to waste it.

"Actually, you did something wrong yesterday," Lin Qiangwei said as they browsed.

"What did I do wrong?"

"When you were leaving, you slapped my ass."

"What about it?"

"I had Pan Yongbin completely fooled. If you hadn't slapped my ass, he probably wouldn't have suspected a thing. It would have been just like before, and I could have kept digging up more information for you."

"So you two had a falling out?"

"You could say that. He thinks I cheated on him, but I told him I didn't, and I really didn't. Slapping my ass once doesn't count as cheating on him, does it?" Lin Qiangwei said. "But for the time being, I won't be able to get any more information."

"It doesn't matter. I'd rather they just make their move already."

"Hehe, President Lin, you're really something else. I'm starting to admire you."

"We come to a place like this and you feel like you're on your home turf, don't you? The flirtatiousness is getting even thicker."

"That's right."

They talked and browsed, finally picking out three sets of lingerie and five pairs of stockings, none of which were conventional styles.

Lin Jiang looked at Lin Qiangwei and noticed her gaze had suddenly become fiery.

'This damn woman.'

'Is she a fucking succubus or what?'

"I'll go pay."

Lin Jiang couldn't be bothered to display any so-called gentlemanly manners. It was completely unnecessary.

Just then, a game notification appeared.

[Boss Appearance]

[Boss Name: Pan Shengli, Wang Xianping]

[Kill Condition: Make them submit wholeheartedly]

[Kill Reward: Master-level Driving Skills, 2,000,000 cash]

Lin Jiang turned his head and scanned the inside of the shop, but he didn't see anyone suspicious.

'They must not be in the store, but they're definitely nearby.'

Soon, Lin Qiangwei finished paying and took the initiative to link her arm with Lin Jiang's.

"President Lin, I'm done picking. I'll wear them for you tonight. From now on, I'll wear whatever styles you like."

"Alright."

Lin Jiang's mind wasn't on Lin Qiangwei, so he gave a casual reply as they walked out together.

Before they had even left the store, Lin Jiang stopped in his tracks. His gaze fell on a counter selling bird's nests.

Even though he could only see a side profile, he recognized the person in an instant—it was Pan Yongbin!

'Combined with the game notification, the person standing next to him must be Pan Shengli!'

'Don't tell me he couldn't beat me, so he ran home to daddy?'

'That sounds like something Pan Yongbin would do.'
