Chapter 108 A Deliberately Chosen Place
Judging from his tone, Qi Wang didn't seem to intend to say too much.
Chi Yuan had not heard many rumors about Qi's father. What impressed her most was the story of the old man in the Qi family sending off the young man.
Qi's father passed away just a few years ago. At that time, Qi Wang had not yet been taken back to the Qi family, but Chi Yuan had already met Qi Ye.
When she learned that Qi's father had an illegitimate child outside, she stood up for Qi Ye and talked about it with her family. Her parents advised her not to discuss it too much, and she didn't even know the reason.
Later, after becoming involved with Qi Wang, even though they had not had much interaction over the past four years, he was able to learn some of the real inside stories.
Qi Wang's mother knew Qi's father even earlier than Madam Qi. As for why Qi's father married the current Madam Qi, Chi Yuan did not understand.
If he doesn't want to get married, can you still force him to marry? Can a man be so cowardly?
"If my mother had fallen in love with an ordinary person, she would definitely be much happier than she is now." Qi Wang said leisurely, "She was caught up in the power struggle among the wealthy families. Even if she didn't end up with my father, she couldn't escape being implicated."
Chi Yuan's heart trembled slightly, and suddenly an incredible idea popped up in his mind.
Could it be that Qi Wang's mother's death...was related to the Qi family? Or was it Madam Qi's family?
"Okay, it's over. I'm doing well now, and it will get better and better in the future."
Qi Wang pulled her up and walked towards the bedroom. Chi Yuan opened her mouth but said nothing in the end.
She actually wanted to tell Qi Wang that he was being very abrupt in changing the subject.
You can tell at a glance that he has other things on his mind.
Qi Wang wanted to keep it a secret, so she didn't plan to ask any further questions for the time being.
Things will work out in the end. For some things, the truth will naturally be revealed when the time is right.
Qi Wang took the initiative to contact Bai Qinghe to discuss his participation.
Chi Yuan dragged Qi Ye for several days, and the other party offered tempting conditions again. She pretended to give in and signed a cooperation agreement with him.
However, she specifically highlighted a section of text in the terms.
If either party is suspected of unfair business practices, the other party has the right to terminate the contract without paying any compensation.
Qi Ye took the contract, glanced through it briefly, and signed it directly. I don’t know if he didn’t notice that clause or was too confident in himself.
On the day the contract was signed, Chi Yuan was invited to a drinking party.
At that time, Chi Yuan neither accepted nor refused.
She had to be careful when drinking with Qi Ye.
But it doesn't mean that they won't participate. Perhaps participating in a drinking party is also an important way to get hold of the other party.
"Yuanyuan, what kind of relationship do we have? I won't hurt you. I promise that what happened last year won't happen again."
As soon as the words fell, a sharp look shot over.
"Master, if you can avoid mentioning some past events, it will make you appear incompetent. In this case, I think our cooperation can be terminated immediately."
Chi Yuan threw the document hard on the table. He Yuanshan stood beside her with a hint of sneer on his face.
"Yuanyuan, you still hate me." Qi Ye lowered his eyes, looking extremely guilty: "It was my fault that I didn't protect you well at the beginning, and I am sorry for you, but please trust me again!"
Chi Yuan felt that Qi Ye was being hypocritical.
As attractive as he looked in public, he now made her feel disgusted.
"Okay, I'll believe you this time."
Chi Yuan raised the corners of his lips and said, "Send me the location of the drinking party. Professor He and I will be there together."
She knew that she lacked work experience, and with He Yuanshan around, he could not only help her keep an eye on things, but also protect her personal safety.
If I had known this earlier, I would have learned a few moves from He Yuanshan. Now I don’t have time to learn them.
"this……"
Of course Qi Ye only wanted Chi Yuan to come alone.
The person next to her is not simple at all.
"Chi's technical advisor is also attending. Any questions?"
Qi Ye could only grit his teeth and agree: "No, we are so happy that Professor He can participate."
After giving a few more instructions, Qi Ye took the plan and left. Chi Yuan's expression immediately fell.
"Oh! You're such an unrepentant person!"
He Yuanshan looked worried. "Signing a contract is risky, and a drinking party is definitely even more dangerous. Do you really want to go?"
"If you don't go, he won't give up."
There were definitely more than just the three of them attending the drinking party, and she wanted to see what Qi Ye was up to.
"According to what he said, there are resources abroad. Maybe I know them."
He Yuanshan smiled meaningfully: "Tonight is going to be interesting."
Then Chi Yuan told Qi Wang about the plan and she would come back later tonight.
When she learned that He Yuanshan was with her, one could sense Qi Wang's unhappiness just from the words he wrote.
"Call him and not me?"
Chi Yuan chuckled and typed back, "How can you act if I ask you to? Qi Ye will be suspicious."
"I will be unhappy if you act together with Heyuanshan."
Even if he knew that their relationship was innocent, he would still be unhappy.
There was no other reason, I just didn't want to see her with other men.
"Then what do you want me to do?" Chi Yuan deliberately asked: "Ask Brother Bai to come along? Or ask Qingcheng to come along? It would be more unsafe with two girls."
"Did you do this on purpose?"
It felt like the other party was really getting angry, so Chi Yuan stopped at that point.
"I'll tell you the address. Come pick me up tonight."
…
Before getting off work, Qi Ye sent a message saying that he would personally pick them up to go to the scene, but Chi Yuan decisively refused.
Now, apart from work contact, she and Qi Ye don't want to have any private dealings.
If he sets out with He Yuanshan, he can at least be considered a colleague, but if he sets out with Qi Ye... it will definitely be a big deal.
When they arrived at their destination, it was a newly opened club. Neither she nor He Yuanshan had heard of this place before.
Qi Ye probably chose this place on purpose.
"Interesting, Qi Ye's trap is so obvious?"
Chi Yuan looked at the English letters on the sign with an ambiguous expression: "Who knows? It's normal that he's not very smart."
The two entered the club and found the box number that Qi Ye mentioned.
Before entering the room, I heard the conversation coming from the box.
"Boss Qi, are you serious? If this cooperative project is completed, I will give you another 30% of the previous dividends!"
"It will definitely work. I heard that she is Mr. Qi's ex-girlfriend. She might still have feelings for him. There's no need to talk about it at all. She might just agree right away."
"Who here isn't a business elite? Are you afraid you can't win over a woman? Hahahaha!"
There were undisguised frivolous words in the box, but Chi Yuan didn't feel anything when he heard them.
When she was pursuing Qi Ye, she had heard similar words too many times.
But He Yuanshan couldn't help but feel angry: "This group of people... are going too far!"
In the eyes of some people, women are just commodities that can be traded.
Today, Chi Yuan came to discuss cooperation, but at the same time, she was indirectly treated as a commodity, waiting to be sold at a price and chosen by anyone.
