Soon, Zhou Jingyan ordered several dishes.
"Still the same as before?" the manager asked Zhou Jingyan respectfully.
"Don't skimp on the spice for these two dishes, and use less soy sauce," Zhou Jingyan replied casually.
Su Zhenzhen raised an eyebrow without making a sound.
Clearly, Zhou Jingyan had taken his preferences into account.
She wasn't naive enough to believe that Zhou Jingyan was specifically paying attention to her.
She knew very well that this person was incredibly observant and capable of establishing himself in such a volatile business world; he was definitely no ordinary person.
Moreover, in terms of complexity, the Zhou family's situation is far more complicated than the Su family's.
Therefore, this was simply Zhou Jingyan's instinct.
“The soy milk here is very good, you can try it too.” Zhou Jingyan suddenly looked at Su Zhenzhen.
“Okay, one serving then. But it has to be warm.” Su Zhenzhen nodded.
The manager made a note of everything before turning and leaving.
Only Su Zhenzhen and Zhou Jingyan remained in the private room.
Zhou Jingyan slowly and methodically laid out the table before starting to chat with Su Zhenzhen.
"After graduating from university, why did you decide to work for the Su family's foundation?" Zhou Jingyan asked casually.
"Seize power," Su Zhenzhen said succinctly.
This surprised Zhou Jingyan.
Everyone in this circle knows that foundations are places that support idlers.
These rich heiresses with nothing to do are kept in places like this.
When you go on blind dates, you'll also have a great reputation as the honorary president of a certain foundation.
This is something everyone knows perfectly well.
But Su Zhenzhen's words were truly unexpected for Zhou Jingyan.
"What power do you want to seize?" Zhou Jingyan asked calmly.
"The Su family," Su Zhenzhen smiled.
Such a laugh is filled with ambition, and it is made without any attempt to hide it.
Zhou Jingyan discovered that she didn't dislike this blatant purpose.
They are far better than those who hide their true intentions and scheme against each other.
Only the Su family—
When Zhou Jingyan looked at Su Zhenzhen again, he said directly, "If I remember correctly, President Su is sexist and will not give you most of the shares. They will only go to your younger brother, Su Yin. No matter how much you struggle, it will be useless."
"So you want my father to give it to me willingly, right?" Su Zhenzhen smiled.
There wasn't even a hint of criticism directed at Su Yin in the text.
"You like control?" Zhou Jingyan asked casually.
This implies a bit of a test.
If so, then Su Zhenzhen is not a good candidate.
He only wants a docile and obedient wife, not a controlling woman.
It's good for a woman to be smart, but being too smart is not a good thing.
"No. I just want to prove myself. Besides, I don't want to be controlled by the Su family through an arranged marriage. Even if I do get married, I want to choose my own partner," Su Zhenzhen said directly.
Her gaze fell on Zhou Jingyan, her meaning unspoken.
Zhou Jingyan smiled but didn't say anything.
In his opinion, Su Zhenzhen was much smarter than Su Yin.
If Su Zhenzhen were a boy, Su Yin would probably have had no chance.
However, many of these ideas are outdated and cannot be changed by Su Zhenzhen alone.
"What if you hadn't been able to gain the upper hand with the Su family?" Zhou Jingyan asked.
"At the very least, there should be room for independent choice in marriage," Su Zhenzhen said calmly.
"What are your criteria for choosing a partner?" Zhou Jingyan asked again.
Su Zhenzhen fell silent after being asked that question.
What are her criteria for choosing a partner?
Actually, she didn't know either.
Over the years, she has been proving herself to be outstanding, but she is actually indifferent to relationships.
But when faced with Zhou Jingyan's question, Su Zhenzhen gave a response stating that she was very satisfied with her marital status.
"We won't interfere with each other, we'll each be independent, we don't need to be affectionate, but we'll treat each other with respect," Su Zhenzhen said calmly.
That statement is absolutely correct.
Because Su Zhenzhen was certain, Zhou Jingyan thought the same way.
Zhou Jingyan simply nodded and did not continue the topic.
If we delve any deeper into this topic, it becomes ambiguous.
Just then, the waiter brought out the food.
"You should try it, the braised pork here is delicious," Zhou Jingyan offered.
Su Zhenzhen nodded and ate her meal attentively.
They were all people who didn't speak while eating.
Under these circumstances, the two ate their meal in silence.
There were occasional conversations, but they were insignificant.
By the time we finished eating, it was already past 9 p.m.
"I'll take you back," Zhou Jingyan said calmly.
"Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Zhou." Su Zhenzhen didn't stand on ceremony.
Soon, Zhou Jingyan escorted Su Zhenzhen back to her hotel.
On the way back, Zhou Jingyan received several phone calls. Most of the time, the other party did the talking, and Zhou Jingyan listened.
The car stopped in front of the hotel, and Su Zhenzhen simply got out, nodded in acknowledgment, and didn't even interrupt Zhou Jingyan.
Soon, she walked into the hotel.
Just then, Zhou Jingyan hung up the phone and watched quietly.
This Su Zhenzhen is indeed quite interesting.
But Zhou Jingyan didn't take the initiative and quickly drove away.
Su Zhenzhen did not stay in the capital for long. The next day, she changed her flight and returned to Jiangzhou from the capital.
After arriving in Jiangzhou, Su Zhenzhen remained just as busy.
The factory was in a mess, and its cash flow was teetering on the brink of collapse.
She needs to rely on her own savings to stabilize the factory's situation.
The results for the foundation were not satisfactory.
When the secretary found Su Zhenzhen, she sighed, "Miss, it's so difficult. We've already spread the word, but they simply don't believe President Zhou will come, so..."
Su Zhenzhen remained calm, her pen twirling in her hand.
She has already sent He Chen all the information about the foundation.
But He Chen didn't contact him.
This means that Zhou Jingyan has not yet made a decision.
So, should she wait?
But Su Zhenzhen knew that Zhou Jingyan was a man of his word.
Since Mr. Qian was willing to help him customize the bubble, Zhou Jingyan had no choice but to fulfill his vow.
Whether Zhou Jingyan will come or not is really uncertain.
"It's okay, the message will still be sent," Su Zhenzhen replied.
"Wouldn't it be incredibly embarrassing to leave things blank on the same day?" The secretary was even more troubled. "In that case, it would be impossible for us to do anything else."
"No, even if President Zhou isn't coming, I have a replacement, just not as good as President Zhou," Su Zhenzhen said calmly.
"Okay, I'll do as you say." The secretary turned and left.
Su Zhenzhen twirled her pen in place for a long time before finally contacting her friend.
She has lived abroad for many years and is not a rich heiress with no resources.
Because Su Zhenzhen knew very well that the Su family was unreliable, and she had her own resources and network of connections outside.
However, these are not very useful in China.
But it's still better than Zhou Jingyan actually standing her up.
These people are considered wealthy and powerful abroad, so this donation is not unreasonable for them.
She contacted them one by one, but asked them not to disclose the information publicly, keeping it for future use.
After everything was arranged, Su Zhenzhen didn't say anything.
Just before the end of the workday, Su Yin appeared in Su Zhenzhen's office.
