79 "Do you want my help?"

Everyone saw uneasiness on Lu Lan's face after her phone call.

"Xiao Lan, what happened?" Madam Si asked.

Lu Lan shook her head and smiled "Nothing, Mom. I have some work, so I have to go".

"Okay, you go and do your work. I will handle things here" Madam Si assured her.

"Thanks, Mom".

Lu Lan went upstairs to where Si Li and Mo Jinnan were standing.

"Do you want my help?" Si Li asked.

Lu Lan nodded "Yes, help me take care of our guests".

Si Li came forwards and put his right hand on her left shoulder and softly said: "The person who betrayed us, will get punishment".

"Can I decide the punishment?"

Si Li's lips curved up "Of course".

Lu Lan and Mo Jinnan went to the study room and Si Li went downstairs to accompany their guests.

When Lu Lan saw Li Daiyu in her cabin, she understood what Si Li was trying to say to her. However, she didn't react at that time, because she wanted to confirm whether Li Daiyu really had the guts to betray Si Corporation or she was just overthinking it.

As far as another proposal, initially Lu Lan had made a proposal in which the amount for the bid was less, because as per Lu Lan, if Si Corporation won this bid then its reputation would increase and it would secure more similar contracts in the future. Her plan was for the long term.

However the board members rejected her proposal and in the absence of Si Li, she couldn't go against them. The board members were the investors in Si Corporation, so their intention was to earn as much profit as soon as possible. So Lu Lan revised the proposal as per the board members approval.

When Mo Jinnan entered her cabin, it's at that time she explained to Mo Jinnan her original proposal along with the revised proposal.

Nevertheless, she submitted the revised proposal which was accepted by the board members, because she didn't know what Li Daiyu had planned. Whether the other party that Li Daiyu was working for (i.e. Feng Corporation) was going to submit the same proposal as Si Corporation or they were going to submit the proposal with the less bidding pricing as compared to Si Corporation.

However, now she knew that they had already submitted the same revised proposal as Si Corporation, so she could submit her original proposal and she would even get the approval of Si Li because his shares in the Si Corporation were more than the rest of the members, so there wouldn't be any problem.

Lu Lan discussed some matters related to the proposal with Mo Jinnan and she personally went to submit the proposal.

Initially, Si Li wanted to accompany Lu Lan, but she rejected him and let him stay at home and told him to take his medication and rest well.

As Lu Lan was not there, Si Li personally went to see off their guests and then he made sure that Little Champ had slept.

Thereafter, he went to sleep because he knew if he didn't take care of himself he would indirectly increase the burden on Lu Lan, which he didn't want to.

By the time Lu Lan came back to the penthouse, it was 2 a.m in the morning. After arriving, the first thing she did was check on Si Li and Little Champ.

Lu Lan sighed in relief when she saw that Si Li was sleeping and that he also took his medication as well. Then she showered and went to sleep.

Tomorrow, she didn't have the class with Professor Chen and the result of the contract would be announced at 3 p.m. So she didn't bother to wake up early in the morning.

It was already noon when Lu Lan woke up. She got off the bed and went to shower. When she arrived downstairs she saw that Si Li was reading some documents on the study table and sipping his tea and Little Champ had already left for his classes.

Lu Lan went towards him and sat on his lap and gave him a peck on his lips "Good Morning".

"Nervous?" Si Li asked.

Lu Lan was startled when she heard him. Although, last night, she had behaved bravely and even now she tried to compose herself. Nevertheless, nothing could be hidden from Si Li's eyes.

"Do you think we will win that contract?" Lu Lan anxiously asked.

"Of course, you will win" Si Li replied as a matter of fact.

Lu Lan smiled at him "You surely know how to lie well".

"We will see whether I am lying or not. Now go have breakfast. Afterwards, you have to go for the results as well" Si Li said.

"You are not coming with me?" Lu Lan asked.

"I will meet you in the office"

"Okay" Lu Lan understood why he was not coming with her. Si Li and Lu Lan left for their work separately.
