218: Chapter 218 A Matter of Principle!”However, it is precisely because of this that she failed to grasp the importance and urgency of the matter in front of you, Boss.”

”After my guidance, she has definitely realized her mistake.”

Maria explained with a giggle.

”Do I have any other schedule for today?”

Shen Zhou gripped his fountain pen and leaned back in his boss chair.

”Mr. Benrati was very satisfied with your performance yesterday, Boss, so he specifically asked you to take a good rest for a while. There are no other arrangements.”

”As for Ms. Gudisha, she should still need to handle the follow-up matters of the birthday banquet for these two days, and she hasn’t mentioned wanting to contact you, Boss.”

Maria reminded him in a low voice.

Shen Zhou nodded in satisfaction and smiled, saying:

”Then let’s give Orphina a chance.”

”But this does not mean that I will choose her to be the chief designer for this project.”

”This project is of great importance. Let alone the chief designer, even the supporting designers need to compete based on their real skills.”

For this project that required special attention, Shen Zhou would absolutely not relax, and even more so, he would not let any nepotistic connections get in through the back door.

”Rest assured, Boss. Don’t look down on Orphina just because she is a female designer; her qualifications and design ability are definitely not to be underestimated.”

Maria was still very confident in her best friend’s ability in the field of design.

Just like that, by the evening, Maria and Shen Zhou arrived at the dinner location booked by Orphina in a stretched Rolls-Royce.

This was a Western-style restaurant that could be ranked among the best even in Dubai.

However, this Western restaurant paid more attention to dining privacy. Every dining table was presented inside a unique, private small room.

But this kind of privacy would not create an excessive feeling of confinement for customers while dining.

As for the so-called paparazzi and tabloid reporters, it was absolutely impossible for them to step through the restaurant’s door.

Even if they deliberately disguised themselves, they shouldn’t even think about stepping inside.

Because this restaurant was membership-based; new members could not possibly obtain the qualification to dine without an invitation from at least three old members.

”Sir, how many are in your party?”

Just as Shen Zhou and his companion walked in, a woman wearing a tight uniform came up to greet them.

This woman was not dressed in the local Arabia style for women.

And this was because the staff had been specially hired from abroad by this Western restaurant.

After all, there were many inconveniences for local women to work here.

”For two, we are here to see Ms. Orphina.”

Maria stepped forward and said softly.

”Please follow me, both of you.”

The beautiful woman in uniform immediately led the way, and finally guided Shen Zhou and his companion to a small Western-style private room.

After knocking quietly on the door, Orphina stood up herself to open it.

The moment she saw Shen Zhou and Maria, a bright and charming smile bloomed on Orphina’s face.

”Mr. Shen, thank you for gracing me with your presence tonight. You must let me properly express my apologies tonight.”

Orphina even specifically pulled out a chair for Shen Zhou.

She even specifically emphasized: ”Mr. Shen, I just had the Waitress carefully wipe down your seat and table with a wet towel.”

Shen Zhou sat in the seat nonchalantly and waved his hand casually.

He himself did not have mysophobia. Furthermore, before receiving support from the System, his preferred places to dine were hole-in-the-wall eateries.

After achieving financial freedom, although he didn’t mind continuing to dine at hole-in-the-wall eateries, he couldn’t possibly take his female companions to such places.

After all, the women around him were all of extraordinary status, having grown up wealthy since childhood.

He would also, to some extent, value the living habits of every female companion by his side.

Just as Shen Zhou’s thoughts were wandering, Orphina pinched Maria’s arm behind Shen Zhou’s back and glared fiercely at Maria.

”Why did you come too? Didn’t you say you would leave tonight to me?”

”Of course I have to accompany the Boss.”

Maria, standing behind, laughed silently, feeling very happy.

She really wanted to see how her lesbian best friend would try to seduce her boss tonight.

How could she easily miss this big show tonight?

Seeing this, Orphina could only sigh helplessly. Then, she let a smile hang on her face again and sat down opposite Shen Zhou.

”Mr. Shen, I am very sorry about what happened during the day. I did not appreciate your dedication and attention to this project.”

”And I have realized that I should not have questioned Mr. Shen with any professional issues. I should have executed the project requirements you provided without compromise.”

Orphina apologized very sincerely, and immediately said a series of things that made Shen Zhou feel very comfortable.

Top talent in every industry is arrogant, let alone Orphina, who stood at the pinnacle of the European design industry as a woman.

It is no exaggeration to say that Orphina was able to adopt the proper attitude and change her past design principles within just half a day; it must be said that this was a very rare change.

”It’s okay, let’s just consider the daytime as our first time working together.”

”But I still stand by what I said: I will recruit as many top designers as possible to join the design work for this project.”

”And I also guarantee that I will absolutely not let any single designer take sole charge of the entire project.”

By the afternoon, Shen Zhou had already thought of a way to deal with the project.

To avoid a situation where a designer lacks the ability to complete this unique project.

Therefore, he would establish a designer committee system for the project.

”I will select five designers with committee status for this project.”

”They will lead their respective design teams to divide and package the entire project for design.”

”Of course, all five design teams will always prepare for the design work in the same office space.”

”However, if someone can rely on their professional strength to overwhelm the other four design teams, I will not be stingy in handing over the entire project’s leadership to them.”

Shen Zhou stated his expectations for the project directly.

No matter what happens between him and Orphina tonight, the real business must absolutely not be delayed.

”Rest assured, Mr. Shen, I will definitely be the first to support your decision when the time comes.”

”And I have been in this circle for a long time. I also know which guys have real talent and which ones are just making up the numbers.”

In every word Orphina spoke, she had long since started to consider problems from Shen Zhou’s perspective.

Shen Zhou was even more satisfied with this.

Soon, two beautiful Waitresses placed all the dishes on the table.

The dishes were just typical Western-style cuisine.
