83: What's up with President Luo?

What's up with President Luo?

Every Class Eleven student were grinning from ear to ear.0

Although their scores were not high, they could tell from the ranking of the class average score that they did well because they are no longer at the bottom of the list!

They came in ninth place out of eleven classes!

Kang Jinhai, who had always been at the bottom in West Middle School, and Gao Tian and Wan Zhu, who had always been at the bottom in Shuhui Middle School, were surprisingly not the lowest placers among all third year students.

It wasn't only Class Eleven who were full of joy, but their Class Adviser, Meng Deming was in good spirits as well when he entered the room.

When he saw his students happily discussing their mock examination results, a rush of happiness washed over him. 

Although some still have low scores, almost all of them have improved in every subject. 

"Settle down, everyone." 

The students went back to their chairs, finally having the peace that Jiang Yue wants, she cropped the screenshot she took so it only shows her name and scores and sent it to Luo Zhelan in WeChat.

At Luo Corporation's office.

The clock had not yet struck 8 a.m. but the employees were already sweating from nervousness. 

Luo Zhelan ran his hand through his hair as he looked at the data of one of their online e-commerce platform.

He closed the folder after going over the files and looked at the individuals in front of him, who were all looking down and no one had the courage to look him in the eyes. 

Ilxell, one of their country's largest e-commerce platforms, was under the Luo Corporation, but something happened, causing many consumers and users to boycott the platform. 

Although it isn't a major issue, it was significant enough to harm their company's stock. 

Yang Lei, seeing his Young Master about to erupt because no one volunteered to explain how to solve this situation, exclaimed, "President Luo is open to hearing your suggestions." 

Despite his statement, no one was brave enough to take the entire bullet of this adversity.

Luo Zhelan pinched the skin between his brows as he tiredly sat back on his chair.

He hadn't slept well in a week and he'd spent the night in the hospital since Grandma Luo's illness had flared up again.

Then he learned, just a few hours ago, that Ilxell was facing a huge backlash. 

"If none of you will speak in the next minute, take your pay after this meeting and never come back."

Although he said it in a low voice, everyone could sense the threat and warning in that sentence, making them even more hesitant to speak, but thinking about their future, a handful stood up in only a few seconds. 

"President Luo, we had thought about a solution to this problem," one of the members stood up and presented their solution to this incident.

He hadn't even finished his tenth sentence when Luo Zhelan interrupted him, "Go straight to the point." 

He was about to open the folder he was given to double-check the data when he heard his phone's unique notification sound. 

Luo Zhelan took out his phone and read the message.

When he saw it was from Jiang Yue, he couldn't help but raise a brow, curious as to why the girl had suddenly messaged him when she had never done so before. 

However, he did not receive any text messages from her, only a photo.

He opened it and when he saw the content of the photo, he couldn't help but snicker.

He suddenly understood what she meant when she said, 'You'll know soon.'

So it turns out that the number she asked was the number of her target score. 

That girl had enough nerve to play with her scores and even ask him about it!

However, seeing the '530,' Luo Zhelan felt as if it was the girl's way of saying she missed him as well, relaxing his tense nerves and tired body from all the sleepless nights.

Knowing they may have already begun their class, he just replied, [Congratulations, let's celebrate that you got 530 on weekends, my treat this time.]

He never expected to be this thrilled seeing the number 530 any more than he was when his bank account's money or their company's stock value increased.

The presenter had already stopped speaking, and the other members were staring at their President, who was beaming and glancing at his phone. 

"What's up with President Luo?" 

"Did the stock market rise?" One of them couldn't help but utter as they reached for their phone to check it. 

However, the data remained unchanged making them more perplexed by what they just witnessed.

Yang Lei cleared his throat when he noticed his Young Master's behavior, but Luo Zhelan was still on his phone, messaging someone. 

He had no choice but to call out, "Young Master Luo." 

Luo Zhelan finally looked up, and seeing their puzzled expressions, he just lifted his brow and replied, "Continue," as if nothing had happened.

With his order, they could only continue the presentation, and while they were not as nervous as before, their hearts were in a far worse state because they were still in disbelief, to the point where they felt as if their head was floating throughout the presentation.

Seeing that none of them were in their right state of mind and the presentation of the solution to the incident was made in a rush, Luo Zhelan stated, "I'll give you two more days to settle this matter."

Everyone eventually let out a sigh of relief as they thanked him. 

They could see that their President's intimidating aura had lessened significantly and he even looks approachable because he's eyes were curved from happiness and even the corner of his lips was raised.

The contrast in his appearance before and after using his phone was so striking that everyone was left speechless.

Everyone went out, and no one said anything because they could still be heard, but everyone was pondering the same thing in their hearts. 

What did President Luo see on his phone that caused him to react like that?
