Old Madam Kang was old, after all. She could not help but nag. “By the way, your uncle is also busy all day long. He’s so busy that I can’t see him, but he’ll be back later. Don’t mind him.”
“I won’t.”
Hearing this answer, Old Madam Kang laughed again. “You’re really as I thought you were.”
After entering the room, Sheng Yang realized that there was someone else there. It was a tall foreign woman dressed fashionably. When she saw Old Madam Kang, she nodded politely. There was a Chinese interpreter beside her.
Old Madam Kang smiled slowly. “This is my granddaughter.”
The interpreter immediately translated it for the foreign woman, who smiled at Sheng Yang before crossing her arms.
The interpreter explained, “This is their highest etiquette.”
Sheng Yang’s attitude was very indifferent.
After that, Old Madam Kang asked the servants to serve some of the local specialties such as cat ear biscuits, chestnuts, peach crispies, and even hawthorn candy. The hawthorn was covered in sugar, turning it into a sparkling dish. It was extremely delightful to look at.
The foreign woman looked at the food and suddenly said with a smile.
It was not English, French, or German. It was a very niche language.
The interpreter was stunned for a moment before he quickly translated, “She said that our country is rich in land and food. She likes it very much.”
Sheng Yang immediately looked at her deeply. That glance shocked the interpreter, and she quickly lowered her head. Sheng Yang wouldn’t understand this, right?
She was only 18 or 19 years old. If it were not for the fact that she was motivated by benefits, why would she learn such a niche language?
Old Madam Kang said to the interpreter, “Tell her to try them.”
The interpreter nodded and looked at the foreign woman. The interpreter then picked up a cat ear biscuit and looked surprised. It was hard to explain.
The interpreter then said, “People from their country have never eaten something like this before. Furthermore, the shape of this food is a little unacceptable to her.”
“Mhm.”
The foreign woman took a bite. It had to be said that the expression on her face was constantly changing. She perfectly described what it meant for a dish to be ‘delicious’.
After eating one piece, she was dissatisfied. However, she concealed everything and wiped her mouth before speaking in a foreign language.
The interpreter was calm this time. She translated calmly, “She said this is very fragrant and delicious.”
Sheng Yang suddenly smiled at the interpreter. She was born beautiful, so when she smiled, she looked cold and nonchalant.
Her amber eyes were like those of a cold cat—without any warmth.
The foreign woman continued speaking for a while before the interpreter translated word by word, “Old Madam Kang, about the collaboration that we mentioned last time, we’ve already discussed it very carefully. You asked me to sign the contract today, and I’ve already prepared the contract.”
Then, a stack of papers was placed on the table by the foreign woman. Old Madam Kang did not say anything but picked up a fountain pen. Her hand was already on the signature line.
Just as she was about to put down the nib of the pen, Sheng Yang suddenly reached out to stop her. There was a hint of coldness in her eyes as she said to Old Madam Kang, “Grandma, do you want to reconsider?”
Although the foreign woman did not understand what they were saying, she could tell that the situation was not right. In her worry, she started gesturing.
Even though it was just body language, it was still enough to understand her.. She was saying that their company was sufficiently powerful and had a high tacit understanding with their company. Now that everything was ready, all they needed was to sign the papers…
