The next day, Long Yuetian's morning was filled with meetings.

During the meeting, Long Yuetian's mind began to wander.

For a workaholic like Long Yuetian, this was a rare occurrence.

And this was all because of that dream last night.

That dream was driving her utterly crazy.

"CEO Long, these were the details for the cooperation plan with the Tianxing Group. Is there anything else that needs to be improved?" the project manager who was reporting asked cautiously.

As Long Yuetian's employee, the project manager and everyone else in the room noticed her expression was a little strange today. This made everyone feel quite nervous.

"What did you say?" Long Yuetian replied. She had been too distracted. Out of everything mentioned, she only heard the words Tianxing Group which made her feel even more flustered.

The project manager carefully repeated: "Is there anything else that needs improvement with the cooperation plan with the Tianxing Group?"

The Tianxing Group…

The Second Master of the Zhai family…

Even though they had dealings with the Tianxing Group, why did this meeting have to be today?

For some reason, Long Yuetian had a guilty conscience. She was afraid of seeing Zhai Zhongshen.

However, if the Long Heng Group was planning to cooperate with the Tianxing Group, only relevant personnel in charge of the cooperation would appear. Zhai Zhongshen would not be there for such a small matter.

As she thought about this, Long Yuetian felt much more relaxed.

"By the way, the Tianxing Group wanted to discuss the details of this project with you in person."

"With me? Who is it?"

"It's the CEO of the Tianxing Group, Mr. Zhai."

"Mr. Zhai? He wants to talk in person?"

"Yep,"the project manager answered with certainty.

Long Yuetian's previous thoughts got slapped away by reality.

Could she not go?

From the perspective of a businessman, she had to attend.

After all, this was a business deal with the Tianxing Group. The Long Heng Group was more than happy to cooperate with them. There was no reason for her not to attend.

On top of this, Zhai Zhongshen would be there personally. Some people would beg to have this opportunity.

Long Yuetian knew that if it weren't for her relationship with Yiling, this business deal probably wouldn't have landed with the Long Heng Group.

And thus, she couldn't refuse his request to discuss this cooperation plan in person.

After a moment of hesitation, Long Yuetian realized she didn't do anything wrong in the first place. Why was she even scared of seeing him?

She just had some strange dreams at night.

But it was just a dream! It wasn't the reality. No one would know she dreamed of such a shameful thing.

After thinking over this, Long Yuetian agreed to Zhai Zhongshen's request.

At noon, Long Yuetian and her assistant arrived at the Hanging Gardens Restaurant.

Even though he was talking about business, the Second Master of the Zhai family also remembered to take care of his niece-in-law's restaurant.

When Long Yuetian entered the restaurant, she noticed that the entire restaurant was closed to the public.

She immediately realized that Jian Yiling probably gave them special permission to have lunch here today.

When she saw the cold and stoic expression on Zhai Zhongshen's face, Long Yuetian immediately thought of her dreams last night and shivered.

However, she forced herself to think about something else. After all, she was here to talk business.

The atmosphere of the Hanging Gardens Restaurant was as beautiful as always.

Exotic flowers were in full bloom throughout the restaurant.
