It Started With a Kiss: Leng Shao's Beloved Wife

Chapter 136: A New Beginning in a Difficult Road: Forging Ahead

Wu Xinyan tightly grasped the letter in her hand. The beautiful handwriting seemed to carry a mocking chill, piercing through all the anxieties and grievances of the past.

Luo Yichen's deep gaze fell on her face, as if he could see through the struggle and confusion in her heart.

"Let's go back and take a look." He held her hand, the warmth of his palm conveying silent determination, "Some things can't be solved by running away."

When Wu Xinyan returned to the project team, the team members all looked worried.

A member of Wang's team couldn't help but speak up: "Mr. Wu, could it be that the Wu family is up to something again?" The other members also responded. During this period of time, they witnessed how Wu Xinyan grew from an abandoned orphan to an independent project leader step by step. They also saw the greed and shamelessness of those in the Wu family. Naturally, they didn't want to see her get hurt again.

"Don't worry, I'm no longer the Wu Xinyan who let herself be manipulated." Wu Xinyan's tone was calm, but her eyes gleamed with determination. "I will handle this matter well and will never let it affect the progress of the project."

However, the project progress was far less smooth than expected.

Zheng's partner suddenly proposed to add several review steps, with the reason being "to ensure the quality of the project", but anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was a deliberate attempt to make things difficult.

"Boss Zheng, these review steps weren't stipulated in the previous contract, and they will seriously delay the project." Wang's team members argued, but were shut down by the other party: "What? You're not cooperating with us? Or do you lack confidence in your project?"

"Of course not!" Wu Xinyan stood up abruptly, her tone firm, "We will fully cooperate with the review, but I also hope that President Zheng can understand that the project time is very tight..."

Before she could finish her words, the office door was pushed open and a deep voice rang out at the door: "Mr. Wu, it looks like you're in trouble."

Luo Yichen strode into the office, his deep gaze sweeping over everyone present, finally landing on Wu Xinyan, with a hint of imperceptible fatigue and worry.

He had just resolved a "rebellion" within the company, but was immediately faced with malicious attacks from competitors. Roche Group's stock price experienced a roller coaster-like fluctuation in just a few days.

"Boss Luo!" Team Wang stood up excitedly, as if they had seen a savior. "You've come just in time. Boss Zheng and the others..."

"I know." Luo Yichen raised his hand to signal him to calm down, then turned his gaze to Zheng's partner. "Mr. Zheng, I've heard a lot about you."

Partner Zheng stood up with a forced smile, his tone tinged with sarcasm, "Boss Luo is truly overwhelmed. How could you trouble you to personally handle such a trivial matter?"

"The project Mr. Wu is responsible for is crucial to the Luo Group, so naturally I have to ensure everything goes smoothly." Luo Yichen's tone was calm, yet it carried an unquestionable aura. "We can cooperate with the review process Mr. Zheng has proposed, but I hope you can provide a reasonable explanation and a specific completion timeline."

Partner Zheng wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Luo Yichen's look.

He knew Luo Yichen's methods very well. If he really made him angry, he might not even have the chance to cooperate.

"Don't worry, Mr. Luo, we will complete the review as soon as possible." Zheng's tone was full of unwillingness, but he didn't dare to say anything more. He left with his people in shame.

"Thank you, Yichen." Wu Xinyan looked at him gratefully. He knew how much pressure Luo Yichen was facing at the moment, but he still came to help her without hesitation.

"Silly girl, why are you being so polite to me?" Luo Yichen ruffled her hair and said gently, "The project is important, let's put everything else aside for now."

Wu Xinyan nodded, suppressed the myriad thoughts in her mind, turned to the team members and said, "Okay, everyone, let's get back to work. We still have a lot of things to do..."

Wu Xinyan and her team members worked tirelessly on the project day and night, as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Luo Yichen's support gave them great encouragement and also stimulated Wu Xinyan's inner tenacity.

She led the team to analyze data and optimize solutions without sleep, and finally completed a new project optimization plan on the eve of the deadline.

When this plan was placed in front of Zheng Hezuo, his original contemptuous expression gradually turned into surprise, and finally turned into a barely perceptible admiration.

Every detail of the plan has been repeatedly scrutinized, with clear logic and detailed data, and even takes into account many aspects that Zheng's partners themselves have not thought of.

"Mr. Wu, I have to say, this proposal has impressed me." Partner Zheng had to admit that Wu Xinyan's ability far exceeded his expectations. "It seems that the previous review process was overthinking."

The review process was passed smoothly, and Wang's team members were so excited that they almost jumped up.

He was originally worried that the Wu family's background would affect the project, and even wanted to give up at one point. It was Wu Xinyan's persistence and hard work that gave him hope and rekindled his fighting spirit.

"Mr. Wu, you're amazing!" Team Wang expressed sincere admiration. "We will definitely do our best to live up to your expectations!"

The project was on track, but Wu Xinyan felt a little uneasy.

She always felt that there was a pair of eyes watching her in the dark, as if plotting something.

Until one day, she accidentally discovered that her computer had been tampered with and a copy of the project data had been secretly copied...

"Who is it?" Wu Xinyan's heart sank suddenly, and a chill ran from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

Late at night, Wu Xinyan's office was still brightly lit.

She sat in front of the computer, her fingers tapping the keyboard rapidly, trying to find any trace of the intruder.

Suddenly, the office door was gently pushed open, and a dark figure walked in silently...
