Asked you to write a book, not to confess your criminal record!

Four o'clock in the afternoon.

Zhongcheng Building, Network Security Company.

Outside the window, the sun hung halfway over the western hills, not far from the Company was Riverside Road in Anling, the bright sunshine fell on the river's surface, and the cool breeze by the riverside twisted around nearby, sweeping away much of the scorching heat.

At this moment, the Company had a complete scale, truly looking the part of a large network security firm.

Lin Chuan, the bona fide chairman.

The Little Landlady, still the CFO of the company, also serving as the chairman's personal secretary.

The two were in the spacious conference room, faces bearing faint smiles, and beside them was an original member of the 720 work team, Li Qing.

Opposite them sat representatives from Anzhou Pharmaceutical, with Yu Keke in the center.

Yu Keke wore a neatly tailored blue suit that made her skin look as white as jade, with a lofty nose bridge and features with a naturally sculpted sense of finesse. Due to her mixed heritage, her gentle face bore a touch of valiance, and when her eyebrows furrowed slightly, a hint of chilliness would emerge.

Lin Chuan's initial impression—Oh, the youth of so many people.

"Mr. Lin, I'm very pleased to meet you," Yu Keke came forward, starting with a voice as refreshing as a spring breeze, her Mandarin very standard, very fluent.

She didn't call Lin Chuan 'Director Lin,' but by his pen name instead.

Lin Chuan showed a slight start in his demeanor, smiled, and said, "Hello, reader."

Everyone heard this and started to laugh.

A business negotiation seemed to have turned into a fan meet-and-greet, and the distance between the two groups suddenly narrowed considerably.

"I've always been following your books; I never imagined you also started such a big network security company," Yu Keke said with a gentle smile, her eyes curious as she looked towards Lin Chuan.

"Nor did I expect my reader to be the general manager of Anzhou Pharmaceutical."

Lin Chuan too began laughing.

"President Yu, please have a seat here," the Little Landlady ushered President Yu and others to take seats around the conference table.

Yu Keke nodded lightly, sitting opposite Lin Chuan and the Little Landlady, laughing lightly, "Working with the author of a book I like is a novel experience."

With a mild smile on his face, Lin Chuan looked at Yu Keke, "I'm looking forward to working with you."

"So am I."

Yu Keke smiled, her eyes gleaming. After exchanging pleasantries, they got down to the crux of the matter, "Director Lin, our Anzhou Pharmaceutical has been frequently harassed by illegal hackers attempting to steal our research results. I wonder, what measures does your company have in place for this kind of issue?"

Lin Chuan turned his head to look at the technical director, Li Qing.

Li Qing was well-prepared and gave Yu Keke a detailed introduction to the key technical solutions in front of the large screen.

Representatives from Anzhou Pharmaceutical nodded frequently.

Yu Keke was quite satisfied.

Next, both parties moved on to discuss the specific details of their agreement.

As both companies had a strong willingness to cooperate and each made concessions, the negotiations went smoothly.

Two hours later, they drafted a preliminary agreement.

"Director Lin, it's a pleasure working with you," Yu Keke extended her slender, fair right hand, looking at Lin Chuan with a smile.

Lin Chuan also extended his hand, giving it a gentle shake, "The pleasure is all mine."

Presently.

Yu Keke instructed her colleagues to leave first and turned to Lin Chuan and the Little Landlady, smiling awkwardly, "Director Lin, Little Director Zhang, I have something I'd like to ask you."

Lin Chuan's eyebrows raised in anticipation, "Ask away, President Yu, though I'm not sure I dare offer guidance."

Yu Keke waved her hands, pursing her lips, "This is a personal matter aside from our cooperation. If it's inconvenient, I can't trouble you."

The Little Landlady glanced at Yu Keke and said, "President Yu, you might as well talk about it."

"Little Director Zhang, you can call me Keke, or by my English name, Coco," Yu Keke said with a beaming smile. Then she turned to Lin Chuan, "Actually, after reading your novels, I've always wanted to write one myself, so I wanted to ask for some tips from you, Writer Lin, on how to write a novel."

The Little Landlady pursed her lips, letting out a light laugh, "Then I shall call you Sister Keke. As for writing novels, just ask our chairman, with your genuine fan love, he definitely won't refuse."

At this moment, there were only the three of them in the conference room.

"Really?"

Yu Keke blinked, looking towards Lin Chuan.

"My CFO has spoken!" Lin Chuan looked at the Little Landlady and then laughed, "Of course, it's possible. But I must issue a disclaimer first; I might not teach you something correct—if it flops, you can't blame me."

Yu Keke's laughter shook like peals of flowers: "With the guidance of the famous Mr. Lin, even if it flops, I'll just rewrite it and surely it will take off."

"Chairman, Sister Keke, you two talk first. I'll go get you a cup of water," the Little Landlady said.

Yu Keke quickly grabbed the Little Landlady, whispering in her ear, "Xinxin, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to stay alone with your chairman. If someone with intentions saw us, it would lead to gossip and could affect your relationship. Just consider it keeping me company for a lesson."

The Little Landlady turned to look at Yu Keke's sincere face, thinking to herself that it was no wonder she could be a general manager at such a young age, considering the issues quite comprehensively and taking the bigger picture into account.

With that thought.

The Little Landlady's affection for Yu Keke grew a bit more.

Yu Keke pulled the Little Landlady to sit down, looked towards Lin Chuan, and said, "Writer Lin, I'm somewhat envious of you—you write great novels, you're the chairman of a company, and you have such a good girl like Xinxin as your wise helper."

"Just lucky, just lucky, all these are Xinxin's credit," Lin Chuan replied with a smile.

Compliments made the Little Landlady a bit embarrassed, "Weren't you going to talk about how to write novels? How did the conversation turn to me?"
