Chapter 297: The Old Drunkard's Intent Is Not in the Wine

I didn't mean anything else. I just felt an instant connection with you, and as women who both head corporations, I can understand the pressure you're under. Right now, your company is just missing a strong partner, and if I can help Miss Lin, I am very willing to use my power to assist you through this difficult time."
