Xu Liang stopped her from saying the rest of the sentence, "Wait a minute, give me your phone."
Qi Yu was puzzled: "What?"
Xu Liang flipped through two call logs from today and said helplessly, "You've already answered my calls twice today using your voice. The key is that one of the calls was from my mom."
She snatched Qi Yu's phone and gave him her own.
"You can fool them once or twice, but it's hard to fool them more than once."
However, Xu Liang saw the expression of the person in front of him, or rather, 'her' expression, which showed some hesitation.
Obviously, he is not willing to change his phone.
Thinking he didn't trust her, Xu Kyung assured her, "Don't worry, I won't do anything with your phone. If there really is something secret in your phone, I can buy a new one. I'll just keep your phone with me."
"No need," he replied as soon as he finished speaking, "I don't have any secrets in my phone, so just change it."
He turned and walked towards the living room again, "Come here, I have something to talk to you about."
Xu Liang stayed where he was, his eyes half-closed. The coldness and arrogance on Qi Yu's face had completely disappeared, and a playful curve appeared at the corner of his lips.
Half-leaning on the light blue sofa, Xu Kyung tried his best to focus his eyes on one point——
She still couldn't accept the bright-colored furniture, and because the lights were on, the colors were even more glaring.
It’s bad enough that I suffered at Qi Yu’s company, but now I have to suffer again when I return home.
She urged, "Let's talk about what we want to talk about."
Qi Yu didn't say anything, but took out a card and slowly passed it to Xu Liang with his fingertips.
His body stiffened slightly, and Xu Liang took away his hand that was blocking his forehead, his eyes moving back and forth between Ka and Qi Yu.
"Boss Qi, are you planning to bribe me?"
The person opposite nodded calmly, "Or to put it another way, I'd like to ask Mr. Xu to help me play the role of Qi Yu well."
Qi Yu's arrogance and coldness were mixed in her clear eyes, and Xu Liang frowned almost imperceptibly.
Qi Yu continued, "There's 500,000 yuan in this card. If Mr. Xu is not satisfied, we can discuss it."
He said he had seen the extra proposal reports in his mailbox, and with the message from Assistant Liu asking him if he felt better, he could guess what was going on.
Xu Liang reflected on it himself and made peace with Qi Yu in order to have a win-win situation.
Unexpectedly, he made the decision first.
Bribe her with money.
It makes him seem big-minded.
The two hands at his sides were quietly clasped together in front of his chest, and Xu Liang had no intention of accepting the card.
She refused bluntly: "No need, just consider today's incident as my impulsiveness, I won't accept the money."
If she really accepted the money, there would be an inexplicable conflict of interest between them.
She doesn't want to.
Qi Yu pressed on, "What if Mr. Xu gets impulsive again? You can't always use impulsiveness as an excuse."
There was absolutely no accusation in his words, as if he was just a rational businessman considering the possible risks of buying and selling.
A familiar feeling surged in my heart.
After knowing him for more than ten years, this passion has grown stronger.
Heo Kyung couldn't quite articulate what kind of emotion that was. Was it resentment? Or perhaps a mixture of resentment and disgust, or perhaps even a vague sense of dissatisfaction?
Especially when he displays his cold "ease", this energy will burst out in his heart.
Xu Liang suggested: "Since President Qi doesn't trust me, let's just sign the contract."
The person on the other side snorted softly and showed no intention of taking the card back.
His calm eyes caught Xu Ying's eye, and he heard him say, "It's not that I don't trust President Xu, I just don't think a contract is necessary. After all...interests are the most effective way to solve problems in any relationship."
“…”
He pushed the conversation to the end, with no way back.
Xu Liang was still a little hesitant.
Qi Yu stood up and walked over, took her hand, and placed the card in her palm. "I didn't think it through today. I will go to the company with you tomorrow. I will personally guide you through all the procedures and things that need to be completed."
"Will you go with me?" Xu Liang hesitated. "Boss Qi, have you forgotten that outsiders see us as incompatible rivals?"
But he didn't care at all. The movement of his body moved her hair, bringing with it the crisp scent of cedar.
"Can't get along? At most, it's just... a difference of opinion."
It was as if he was not the one who deliberately challenged her on the forum not long ago.
Xu Liang didn't want to dwell on such a pointless topic and continued, "But don't you find it weird? I've never been to your company before, and I'm your competitor, so I suddenly show up at Yian. What's that?"
Qi Yu seemed to really ponder for a moment, and his eyes met hers again.
"You can issue a notice in my name, saying I invite you to visit Yian and offer some professional advice."
Xu Liang's brows furrowed even more, feeling that his suggestion was outrageous: "Isn't this even more bizarre?"
Ever since she took over the nursing home, he has never said a word of agreement. All he keeps saying is "technological elderly care is an inevitable development" and "humanistic elderly care will sooner or later be replaced by technological elderly care."
Would a person who said such things invite her, who is committed to developing humanistic elderly care, to inspect?
It's a joke.
"But this is the most reasonable solution at the moment." Qi Yu affirmed: "After all, it's in my name. Could it be that Mr. Xu is afraid?"
It has to be said that after so many years of fighting between the two, Qi Yu still understood Xu Liang's temper. With just a slight provocation, Xu Liang's energy immediately surged up.
She straightened her back and tightened the card in her hand: "Who's afraid? Let's go together!"
Just as he finished speaking, the doorbell rang at the right time.
Xu Liang was startled, thinking that it might be Qi Yu's parents who were making a surprise attack, and looked over in astonishment.
The person involved looked calm and was about to open the door.
"My new clothes have arrived."
Xu Liang breathed a sigh of relief, then stood up and asked, puzzled, "What clothes?"
Thinking that Qi Yu had a newly customized suit, and since she happened to be the one in his body, she didn't mind helping him try on the new clothes.
Although she didn't like this guy very much, his figure was slim and straight, which was in line with her aesthetic taste.
After Qi Yu signed for it, he brought in a big box.
Xu Liang waited for him to dismantle it.
But what was in the box was not so-called suits, but women's clothing, and very novel women's clothing at that.
"You bought women's clothing?!" Xu Liang showed disgust, not understanding his behavior at all.
The man calmly took out the clothes from the box one by one, and in order to choose carefully, he pushed the floor-standing clothes hanger over and hung the clothes neatly.
"I'm in your body now, so naturally I have to buy women's clothes."
Xu Liang frowned, two fine wrinkles forming between her eyebrows. She pinched the corner of the clothes with her fingertips and slowly twisted them up. As she took in each outfit, the burden in her heart was instantly swept away.
A bright pink suit is paired with a bright orange shirt, a rose red casual suit is paired with a yellow and white striped lining, and a green long skirt is paired with a pink blouse...
She really deserves the five hundred thousand.
Qi Yu must compensate her for mental damages.
Why didn't she realize before that this person also had aesthetic cancer?
His fingertips immediately loosened the clothes, and Xu Liang didn't want to look at it any longer.
Just as she was about to question him, he asked her first, "How about wearing this outfit tomorrow?"
He pointed at the green dress.
"Boss Qi, take a look at this and see if it really looks good."
He dresses himself up so well, but why does it look so different on her?
It was hard for Xu Liang not to think that Qi Yu did it on purpose.
But Qi Yu's behavior told her that she was worrying too much.
He put on that innocent face again and gestured in front of the mirror, "I think it suits you very well. You can try this style more often in the future."
Xu Liang couldn't bear to watch it.
Just thinking about what would happen if such a combination appeared on her——
A dark green long skirt with a pink blouse.
Isn't it just blushing seaweed when walking on the street?
“…”
Xu Liang suppressed the urge to hit him, gritting his teeth. "Glitter pink with dark green, Mr. Qi, even if you haven't studied art, don't you have good eyes? Why don't you pair your suit like this?"
The word "you" was emphasized, and Qi Yu finally saw Xu Ying's displeasure. The long skirt was hung back on the hanger. He tugged at the hem and calmly explained, "There's no such thing as a custom-made suit."
"Yeah, even custom-made ones don't match like this!"
Xu Liang rolled his eyes at him, threw all the clothes back into the box, and sealed it with tape again.
She took out all the clothes she had brought with her and ordered Qi Yu to choose only from these clothes.
However, he was dissatisfied with her clothes because he had a problem with aesthetics, saying that there were too few varieties and they were too monotonous, and most of them were high heels, which he couldn't wear.
Anyway, in the end, it all comes down to one thing: buying more clothes and flat shoes.
Xu Liang hadn't planned to stay here for a long time, so these clothes seemed to her to be more than enough.
But she was afraid that Qi Yu would really get tired of wearing ugly clothes and go look for ugly clothes. Would she still have any shame then?
After much hesitation, Xu Liang finally compromised.
"Well, I'll buy some new clothes and flats, but you have to wear whatever I buy."
Qi Yu had already paid anyway, so why should she make things difficult for herself?
Qi Yu raised his eyebrows.
Heo Kyung added firmly, "Also, return this box intact and don't let it show up again."
After a brief pause, Qi Yu pursed his lips, as if trying to suppress the smile that was about to burst out.
The drooping hair swayed gently like willow branches in the wind. The person occupying Xu Liang's body curled his lips lightly: "No problem."
Xu Liang's attention was not on him at all, so naturally he didn't notice his expression.
While she was still carefully selecting on a shopping app, the courier had already rushed to her door to pick up the box of clothes.
Finally, Xu Liang felt relieved, and he felt that there were too many people involved.
When she was studying, she admired his abilities; when she was working, she admired his courage.
But in real life, it is really incredible, and he is completely a walking messenger of absurdity.
Qi Yu didn't know if he had a change of heart, but felt that his behavior had offended her, so he poured a cup of tea for Xu Liang.
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, Xu Liang knew that he was wrong again.
"How's your self-assessment progress with the recent nursing home rating?"
