Although the Lan family members were frightened and still had lingering fears, they decided to continue dining in the private room.
After all, having made such a fool of themselves in public, they didn't want to stay here and be criticized.
Lan Zhiming, with a gloomy face, took the lead and walked towards the private room, followed by Lan Yuchen and others.
Their steps were somewhat heavy, and each step seemed to carry with it the shame and fear of humiliation.
After entering the private room, the atmosphere was solemn and everyone was silent. The strange scene just now kept appearing in their minds, making them unable to calm down for a long time.
Inside the private room, the lights were dim and the atmosphere was still dull.
Lan Zhiming frowned slightly. Although he was in a bad mood, he had not forgotten the real purpose of this trip.
After his expression calmed down, he looked at Pang Min and asked, "Xiao Min, uncle has a question for you."
Pang Min was rubbing her knees. She didn't know what had happened today, but she had actually suffered such a great humiliation. When she heard Lan Zhiming's question, she quickly looked up and replied obediently, "Uncle, if you have any questions, just ask."
Lan Zhiming nodded. "Well, I want to ask, does your father know Professor Gu from the research institute?"
Pang Min thought for a moment and responded, "They will have work-related contact, so they should know each other."
Hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed across Jiang Peishan's originally gloomy face, but she quickly restrained her expression, lowered her head slightly, bit her lips lightly, and pretended to be embarrassed in front of Pang Min.
She first sighed softly, and that sigh seemed to be filled with endless sorrow.
Then, she slowly raised her head, her eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and expectation, and she said softly: "Xiao Min, actually, Yu Chen has been contacting the research institute, hoping to cooperate with Professor Gu's new research results, but he has not been able to get in touch."
"As you know, our Lan family's stock price plummeted recently due to some things. Yu Chen had no choice but to look for new development opportunities."
"Professor Gu's research results will definitely become a key national development project in the future. If we can cooperate with Professor Gu, we may be able to restore the Lan family to its former glory. Therefore, cooperation with Professor Gu is extremely important to us."
"But we tried every possible way, but still couldn't talk to Professor Gu. Alas..." Jiang Peishan said as she shook her head slightly, her face full of worry.
She twisted her hands together lightly, as if she was anxious about this matter.
"Minmin, can you ask your father to help make some connections? Our Lan family would be very grateful."
There was a hint of flattery in Jiang Peishan's tone and her eyes were full of expectation. She looked straight at Pang Min, as if all her hopes were placed on her.
Lan Zhiming and Lan Yuchen also turned their gazes to Pang Min, waiting for her response, their eyes also filled with eagerness and desire.
Pang Min was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting Jiang Peishan to make such a request.
She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then slowly raised her head and swept her eyes over the faces of everyone in the Lan family.
"Auntie, I'm not sure Dad can help with this matter. Although they have work contact, Professor Gu is a rigorous person and is always cautious about cooperation."
"However, I can go back and ask my father if he has any way to help Brother Yuchen." Pang Min's tone was very sincere, and there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
When Jiang Peishan heard this, she immediately showed joy on her face. She quickly shook Pang Min's hand and said, "Xiao Min, thank you so much. As long as your father is willing to help make the connection, whether it succeeds or not, our Lan family will remember your kindness."
Lan Zhiming also nodded and agreed: "Yes, Xiaomin, you must help with this."
Lan Yuchen's usually cold and deep eyes were filled with gratitude. He looked at Pang Min gently, and his eyes seemed to be able to melt people's hearts.
He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile, and said softly: "Minmin, thank you."
"But if you feel embarrassed, don't force yourself. I can think of other ways."
His voice was deep and magnetic, and every word he said made Pang Min lose her mind.
After saying this, Lan Yuchen reached out and rubbed Pang Min's hair lovingly. His movements were gentle and natural, with endless tenderness and care.
Pang Min was slightly startled by Lan Yuchen's sudden action, and her cheeks instantly turned red.
Her eyes flashed with shyness and joy, and then she said firmly: "Brother Yuchen's business is my business, I will naturally do my best to help."
Her voice was clear and powerful, her words full of determination.
She has decided that she can do anything for Lan Yuchen.
Even if her father doesn't agree to help, she will find a way to help Lan Yuchen.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the private room seemed to become softer because of this heartwarming scene, and the previous haze seemed to be swept away.
Everyone in the Lan family was in a good mood again in the private room because of Pang Min's promise.
After finishing the meal, they walked out of the private room talking and laughing.
However, this joy was broken the moment the door opened.
Because when they opened the door, they happened to see Nan Qiao coming out of the bakery opposite.
As soon as Jiang Peishan saw Nan Qiao, her expression, which had just improved, suddenly darkened. Her eyes widened in anger as she immediately cursed, "You vicious woman! You have no respect for our elders and are actually trying to trip us up. How despicable!"
Before Nan Qiao could say anything, Gu Yi walked out from behind her.
He frowned, his face full of displeasure, and said in a deep voice: "Where did this shrew come from? She actually cursed people in public. She has low quality!"
Jiang Peishan never expected Gu Yi to scold her, and her face instantly became even uglier.
Anger burned like a fire in her heart, making her lose her mind.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you scold me! Both of you are bad people!" Jiang Peishan pointed at Nan Qiao and Gu Yi and cursed.
She had been holding it in for too long, and today it was like she exploded. Her voice was sharp and piercing, echoing in the corridor, attracting the attention of people around her.
Gu Yi's brows were furrowed, and a hint of anger was revealed in his eyes. He stopped and asked coldly, "Who are you talking about?"
His voice was not loud, but it carried an unquestionable majesty.
Jiang Peishan was already overwhelmed by anger at this time. Her eyes were red and the muscles on her face were trembling slightly with anger.
"I'm talking about you! You're such an ignorant person."
Jiang Peishan's sharp voice echoed in the corridor, "Who do you think you are? How dare you meddle in my business?"
"And your family members must be all the same, none of them are good!" Her words were extremely vulgar, and every word was like a sharp blade, stabbing Gu Yi.
