Chapter 345: There is no word "fear" in my dictionary
Shu Yue was stunned for a moment after saying this.
"Fu Heming definitely doesn't have the money to cooperate with Xu Si, but there is another person who has the money and is likely willing to take the risk to cooperate with him."
Fu Jingshen raised his eyebrows frivolously, "Who did you think of?"
Shu Yue looked at him with a strange expression, "Could it be Shangguan Ling?"
"Xu Si mentioned her at the dinner table yesterday. I thought about it and realized that other people would not be willing to cooperate with Xu Si. Even if someone wanted to make money, they would not have as much financial resources as you. Xu Si would not look for other partners. But if it was Shangguan Ling, someone like Xu Si would find it interesting and might actually agree."
Xu Si's best partner is Fu Jingshen. All the financially-sufficient people in China have explicitly rejected Xu Si. Only Fu Jingshen is his best choice now. But he is now dragging Fu Jingshen and refusing to discuss cooperation, which only means that he has other options.
His choice may not be better than Fu Jingshen's, but it must be one that he finds interesting.
Apart from Shangguan Ling, Shu Yue couldn't think of anyone else.
After suffering a severe blow last time, Shangguan Ling wants to return to everyone's attention and revive the Shangguan family. Xu Si is also an opportunity, but this opportunity is extremely dangerous. If he is not careful, he may be backfired and lose everything, and also get covered in dirt.
"I guess it's her, but I'm not completely sure. There must be some kind of relationship between Shangguan Ling and Xu Si. Just like you said last time, Shangguan Ling was probably given to Xu Si by her father. After all the pain she went through, is she really willing to cooperate with Xu Si?"
Shu Yue shook her head. "You don't understand Shangguan Ling. I've known her thoroughly for more than a month. She is very courageous. If you think about it, she can even kill her father and elder brother for her own benefit, then cooperating with her former enemy is nothing in comparison."
Xu's reception room.
"Mr. Xu, the distinguished guest has arrived and is waiting in the reception room."
The assistant was standing at the door of the reception room. When he saw Xu Si coming, he bowed respectfully.
"I understand. You go ahead and do your work."
The assistant left quickly.
Xu Si looked at the closed door in front of him and stood at the door for a long time before pushing it open and walking in.
The people in the reception room heard the noise and looked back.
The window was opened and the wind from outside blew in, blowing the hair around her ears and revealing the ear that was missing a large part.
Xu Si stood there looking at her for a moment, then closed the door and walked towards her.
"You are still the same as you were more than 20 years ago."
As Xu Si spoke, he sat down on the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked up at Shangguan Ling in front of him.
Shangguan Ling's eyes were ordinary, revealing no special emotions, and she sat down opposite Xu Si.
"Really? You are different from twenty years ago."
"Oh? What's different?" Xu Si asked curiously.
Shangguan Ling raised her eyes, "You've become old and ugly. I heard that you haven't married yet. How come..." She looked at Xu Si's lower body and said with a hint of provocation, "You haven't been cured yet?"
When Xu Si heard this, his eyes darkened, and he looked at Shangguan Ling with a hint of dissatisfaction.
"Thanks to you."
"You should thank me, otherwise you wouldn't have so much energy to manage Xu's company and have such bold ideas as building the sea bridge." Shangguan Ling felt visibly better when she saw him being humiliated.
Xu Si suppressed his unhappy emotion and said, "Compared to me, you seem to be more courageous. You actually dared to contact me and meet me. I thought those things that happened back then made you afraid of me."
Shangguan Ling sneered, "There is no word 'fear' in my dictionary, and I am certainly not afraid of you."
Fear is the most powerless thing for her. She will never allow herself to be afraid. If she were afraid, she would not have come to this point today.
"I know Fu Jingshen wants to cooperate with you, but he knows the dangers. Do you think he is sincere? He is rich and powerful in Beijing. It will do him no good to cooperate with you on this project. Others avoid you. Have you ever thought about why he is the only one who agreed directly?"
"And as far as I know, Fu Jingshen's condition is that he should draft the contract, right? Aren't you afraid that there is fraud in this?"
Xu Si had thought about Shangguan Ling's words.
He is the type of person who dares to act, dares to think, and is bold, willing to take the biggest risk to do what he wants to do, but Fu Jingshen does not seem to be such a person. He is not as extreme as Xu Si in doing things. Instead, he is steady and cautious. When he agreed to cooperate, Xu Si was a little bit unbelieving.
Because of his doubts, he had not signed a contract with Fu Jingshen until he received the news from Shangguan Ling. He was no longer in a hurry to sign the contract with him.
He wanted to see what kind of medicine was in Shangguan Ling's gourd.
He knew everything that happened to Shangguan Ling in Shangjing. The reason Shangguan Ling ended up like this was because of Fu Jingshen. If it weren't for his report, Shangguan Ling wouldn't have fallen into such a state and wouldn't have come to him.
"You should know that the reason I am like this now is because Fu Jingshen reported me. He is not a trustworthy person."
"Then you can be trusted? You don't have much money to spend, right? Although my project will bring huge profits in the later stage, the initial cost is sky-high. You..."
Before Xu Si could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shangguan Ling, "Don't worry about the money. What I can take out is my entire fortune. I'm betting my entire fortune with you on whether this project can be done."
Shangguan Ling's serious, paranoid look seemed to pull Xu Si back to twenty years ago.
She had the same expression when she took the poison from him, willing to sacrifice her own life for revenge.
"I need to think about cooperating with you first." Xu Si did not dare to make this decision rashly.
After all, he has invested half of his fortune in this project.
While the two of them were discussing cooperation, Shu Yue and the others were taken by Xu Xiaoliu to visit three or four scenic spots.
"Follow me and you will have a fun trip without any boring moments. Everything is arranged perfectly."
Xu Xiaoliu was talking in the front while holding his little bee, and Shu Yue was unable to move and was hanging on Fu Jingshen behind him.
"I didn't even drink a few sips of water throughout the day, so of course I didn't have time to pee. Your schedule was too tight. I haven't even recovered from the last attraction yet, but you took us to the next one. My legs are not made of iron, so I'm very tired."
Shu Yue leaned on Fu Jingshen's shoulder and said, "Let me find a cooler place to rest first."
She turned her head to look, trying to find a place to sit. Not too far from them, there was a man behind them wearing a black mask and a gray baseball cap. When he saw Shu Yue looking at her, he lowered the brim of his hat, turned around and walked out into the crowd.
Shu Yue frowned, "Strange."
