From abandoned baby to CEO

Sun Xue quickly stood up and introduced, "Tingfeng, this is Qianqian, whom I mentioned to you on the phone. She's a very outstanding girl."

Lu Tingfeng's eyes fell on Qianqian, and his eyes lit up immediately.

He couldn't help but wonder: How could there be such a beautiful girl in a northern city?

Qianqian stood up slightly, her gaze fixed on Lu Tingfeng: a tall and upright figure, about the same height as her father, with delicate skin, a hint of domineering in his eyes, and an imposing presence; he was clearly a successful person.

Lu Tingfeng, on the other hand, felt a little embarrassed by Qianqian's gaze. He quickly explained with a smile to cover up his nervousness:

"I'm sorry, I could have arrived half an hour earlier, but I got stuck in traffic..."

He walked up to Qianqian, bowed slightly in a very gentlemanly manner, and presented her with a large bouquet of flowers:

"Hello, Ms. Sun, it's nice to meet you. I didn't know what kind of flowers you like, so I chose a bunch of tulips. I hope you like them."

Qianqian accepted the flowers, her eyes filled with barely suppressed joy.

Lu Tingfeng's gentlemanly demeanor immediately won her heart. What surprised her even more was how Lu Tingfeng knew she liked tulips, and that the color was her favorite white!

The moment she accepted the flowers, their fingers touched.

That intimate skin-to-skin contact sensation quickly spread throughout the body along the fingertips.

Her heart suddenly raced, and a subtle and wonderful feeling swept over her.

She had forgotten how long it had been since she felt this way.

A blush crept onto her cheeks; she looked shy, making no attempt to hide her inner excitement.

"Thank you, white tulips are my favorite."

Lu Tingfeng sat down with an elegant demeanor, still wearing a faint smile, his gaze gentle as he looked at Qianqian sitting opposite him.

Sun Xue called him and asked him to come to the appointment, but to be honest, he didn't have much hope.

Over the years, his family has arranged for him to meet many girls, but he has always felt resistant to it. He knows very well that for someone from his family background, the blind dates his parents arranged were more about business alliances.

Without exception, the girls had all received high-quality higher education, came from wealthy families, and spoke with elegance and poise.

But he didn't like the affected and pretentious manner of these girls. He knew in his heart that most of these girls were only after his status as a rich second-generation.

He has yet to meet a girl who makes his heart flutter.

However, the moment he stepped inside, the girl sitting opposite him made his heart flutter at just one glance.

Her appearance, figure, and the aloof yet slightly shy expression on her face immediately captivated his heart.

"Mr. Lu... what would you like to drink?"

Qianqian blinked her dark eyes and asked softly.

Lu Tingfeng glanced at the juice in front of Qianqian and replied with a smile, "Same as you, I'll have a glass of juice."

"Sister Sun told me you're from the South, prefer lighter food, and like seafood. I ordered a few dishes; I wonder if they suit your taste?"

As Qianqian spoke, she pushed the menu in front of Lu Tingfeng and introduced it in a gentle tone, "I ordered steamed sea bass, poached chicken, crystal shrimp, and..."

Lu Tingfeng glanced at the menu, his gaze falling on Qianqian's face. He smiled elegantly, "Thank you. These are all my favorite dishes."

Sun Xue glanced at the gentlemanly Lu Tingfeng, then at the slightly delicate Qianqian, and she had already noticed that when the two looked at each other, their eyes were practically glued together.

She was certain that the two of them had hit it off, and it seemed like things were going to work out!

Qianqian, in particular, seemed like a completely different person in front of Lu Tingfeng.

Gone is her previous aloofness; even her tone of voice has softened considerably, clearly indicating that she is deliberately trying to appear more delicate.

Sun Xue couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

She joked, "Qianqian, you don't need to ask my brother's opinion. He'll definitely like any dish you order. By the way, Tingfeng, you can pay the bill after we finish eating."

Sun Xue meant it as a joke, but Qianqian took it seriously. She quickly said, "How can we let Mr. Lu pay? How about we split the bill?"

Sun Xue paused for a moment, then insisted, "No need, let my brother pay. He's a man, so he should pay."

To everyone's surprise, Lu Tingfeng smiled faintly and said, "Sis, I have to pay! I already paid when I came up."

This small gesture from Lu Tingfeng made him seem even more impressive in her eyes.

Sun Xue was very satisfied with Lu Tingfeng's performance, and she secretly gave him an approving look.

It was clear from their expressions and eyes that they had fallen for each other, and she was very glad that her decision to play matchmaker was the right one.

One is a successful, refined, and mature young master from a wealthy family; the other is a beautiful, generous, independent, forward-thinking, and straightforward heiress.

The more Sun Xue looked at them, the more she felt that the two were a perfect match.

Just like her and her husband Liu Bin, she is straightforward and outgoing, while Liu Bin is introverted, gentle, and thoughtful. Over the years, they have had a very harmonious relationship.

Sun Xue understands that everyone's background, education level, and family of origin will leave a deep imprint on a person, and even subtly influence a person's temperament.

She will never possess the innate elegance that Qianqian has, nor will Liu Bin possess the gentlemanly and refined demeanor that Lu Tingfeng has.

However, this does not change the fact that they are also the best combination.

Just like the two people in front of her, they were a perfect match in terms of appearance, temperament, and family background.

The atmosphere at the meal was a little reserved, perhaps because they both cared about each other. Qianqian and Lu Tingfeng didn't talk much and communicated mainly through eye contact.

Sun Xue, on the other hand, kept trying to find topics to ease the atmosphere.

Halfway through the meal, Sun Xue was surprised to receive a call from Director Sun.

She took the opportunity to leave the private room while answering the phone. This conveniently created a chance for the two of them to be alone.

Sun Xue walked out of the restaurant; the sun was shining brightly outside.

On the other end of the phone, Director Sun's voice was full of enthusiasm:

"Xiao Sun, has your brother arrived yet? Have the two met?"

"We've arrived. We're having dinner now."

"Director Sun, I have good news for you. They fell in love at first sight. Your call came just in time. When I'm here, they're both too shy to be around, but when I'm not here, they're probably chatting quite intimately right now."

Director Sun chuckled, "That's good, that's good. Qianqian has such a discerning eye; her mother and I have worried a lot about this over the past few years..."

Director Sun was quite satisfied after his wife described Lu Tingfeng's basic situation to him. He was still worried that the other party might not be interested in his daughter.

After all, he's a successful scion of a wealthy family, and he'd be overjoyed if his daughter could marry into such a family.

He is now eager to meet this "future son-in-law".

"I've already booked lunch at the hotel for tomorrow noon, let's get together then."

Sun Xue couldn't help but chuckle to herself; these two, Director Sun and his wife, were far too impatient.

"Okay, thank you, Director Sun."

"By the way, Xiao Sun, regarding the spot for the international conference, I've recommended you to the relevant leaders. There shouldn't be any problem. I'll talk to you about it later..."

Director Sun spoke earnestly, his tone full of concern:

"Xiao Sun, this is no ordinary meeting. The State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) is a key candidate for recommending and supporting outstanding and compassionate young entrepreneurs like yourself..."
