A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 318

After arriving at the president’s office, Lily can hear faint speech coming from inside. She doesn’t know if there are any guests inside.

She knocks politely.

“Enter.” Louis says and the speech continues.

Lily pushes the door and looks in. There are no guests; Louis is talking on video call. Hearing the movement, he looks up and then immediately looks back at the screen.

Lily steps in lightly, walks up to the desk and places the lunch box on it, waiting silently.

Louis’s is speaking in English very clearly and fast.

Lily hears that he is talking about export trade. There are also several documents about export trade on the table. As Louis reaches out for a document, she hands it to him.

His conversation about export trade lasts a full half an hour.

Once the video call is over, Louis takes off his headset.

Even after a nearly two-hour video conference, he is still in good spirits; he’s not tired at all.

Lily hands him tea and sighs enviously, “As expected, Mr. Louis Smith, you are such a difficult partner. Already persuaded people and even set the date to sign the contract.”

Louis raises his eyebrows slightly, “Well, if you know what the other party needs, just keep mentioning that. If they think that the profit is low then I will give him the price that they want.”

Lily squints at him, “Are you that kind?”

“If you don’t know how to deduct money from other places then you can’t be the boss.” Louis takes a sip of the hot tea, “We have to pay money to make money in business.”

“Capitalists are really smart and powerful.” Lily says in awe.

She opens the lunch box and takes out the food, “My mom asked me to bring you this. Oh! I remember, you don’t like pig trotters. Should I solve this problem for you?”

“Preferences can be changed.” Louis pulls the lunch box towards himself to prevent her from taking advantage of it, “Besides, if my mother-in-law sent it, then I must eat it all.”

Lily rolls her eyes, “You are really shameless. There wasn’t even a marriage proposal, but you are calling her mother-in-law.”

Louis looks at her hand, “Aren’t you wearing a ring?”

“This is just from the game!”

“I know! It is not grand or romantic enough for Mrs. Smith.” Louis touches his phone, “I will call the designer over and let him talk to you in person to see what style of ring you want.”

Lily grabs his phone away from him, “It will be a waste of money to buy another ring. You eat your pig trotters!”

If the designer really comes to Smith Group, then their relationship would be known to the entire building in minutes.

Louis chuckles in a low voice.

Lily wants to leave after lunch, so as to not provide fuel to the gossips. However, Louis starts to teach her about the Z City project and makes her sit beside him.

Louis talks about the project thoroughly and Lily listens to him attentively.

As the key points of the project are finished, so is the food.

“Leave it to me, I will definitely be able to do it!” Lily packs up the lunch box, looking ambitious, “If I don’t find something to do, my mind will get rusty.”

Louis touches his chin, “Are you interested in being the vice president? There are many things to do, you will definitely be not idle.”

“No!” Lily unexpectedly refuses, “If I was at any other company, I would have done it. It’s a great opportunity. But not here at Smith Group.”

“Why?”

Lily frowns, “Although our relationship is a secret, I come to you frequently and some people seems to have noticed. Some people in the R department are already dissatisfied with me. If I become the vice president, their unpleasant words will definitely reach the share holders’ ears and they will give you trouble.”

Louis smiles, “The one that holds the most shares is me. Are you still afraid that the share-holders will unite to impeach me?”

“No, I am just worried that things will not sound so good for you” Lily purses her lips and smiles, “I prefer to prove myself with my abilities and shut their mouths.”

She has a confident smile on her face. She looks charming and beautiful.
