Chapter 17 You followed me?
Didn't Xi Mozhou try his best to distance himself from this situation? Also, when did he make an appointment with him?
Qu Tao glared at him and said nothing, but Mu Jingyan looked back and forth between the two, surprised for a few seconds, and was very understanding.
"It doesn't matter. If President Qu has an appointment at noon, it can be changed to the afternoon."
Qu Tao thought about his own company, which was now being suppressed by Xi Mozhou. If he could get on good terms with Mu Jingyan, it might be a way out for the company.
"President Mu, don't listen to President Xi's jokes. I don't have any appointment at noon."
"Oh...then when it's over, shall we go together?"
"Sure, no problem."
Xi Mozhou's lips moved, and the leader on the stage suddenly coughed twice, tried the microphone and started talking.
Xi Mozhou had no choice but to turn around with an expression that he would settle the score with him after the meeting.
However, he did not expect that Qu Tao did not stay until the end. After the leader finished speaking, he gave a look to Mu Jingyan next to him and slipped out of the venue.
"Mr. Qu, are you leaving now?"
Qu Tao waited at the door for a moment, and Mu Jingyan walked out.
x "Yes, you are just a foil anyway, there is no need to stay until the end."
"That's right, what does Mr. Qu like to eat?"
In the hotel private room, Qu Tao and Mu Jingyan were ordering food when Assistant Wang called, and his tone seemed very anxious.
"Mr. Qu, where are you now? I have an important document here that urgently needs your signature?"
"You're going back to the company so soon?"
"Yes, do you want to go back to the company, or can you send me the location and I'll deliver the document?"
On the other end of the phone, Assistant Wang received the location sent by Qu Tao and sent it to Xi Mozhou beside him.
"Boss Xi, can you not go? If I hadn't pushed Secretary Zhang out last time, Boss Qu would have suspected me."
"Don't worry, I know him. After all, you are an old employee of the company. He can't guess you are like this."
"But..." Assistant Wang hesitated to speak. Seeing Xi Mozhou frowning, he continued helplessly, "When Secretary Zhang resigned last time, Boss Qu said that if he found a traitor again, he would send him to the yd even if he had to give up everything."
"Not to Africa?"
"Boss Xi..." Assistant Wang looked like he wanted to cry, "I'm almost thirty years old and I haven't married yet. You won't really let Boss Qu send me to the yd, right?"
"I haven't married yet, why are you in such a hurry."
Xi Mozhou said and walked away. Assistant Wang looked at his back, thinking of Qu Tao's harsh words at that time, and began to plan a way out for himself.
What is the yd? In the past few days, he watched a lot of videos, where even animals were attacked.
"Mr. Qu, there is actually no rush for this document. Let's wait until you return to the company to sign it."
Qu Tao glanced at the message sent by Assistant Wang, put away his phone, and continued to chat with Mu Jingyan.
"Mr. Mu, I believe you have also heard that Difeng has been targeting our Yuanhang. Do you really not mind cooperating with our company?"
"Mr. Qu, you worry too much. I admire Mr. Qu as a person. If you have any difficulties, please feel free to find me."
"Thank you, Mr. Mu, I will toast you another glass."
Mu Jingyan accompanied him to drink the wine in the glass and spoke carefully.
"Rumor has it that you stole President Xi's wife three years ago, so Difeng..."
"Ahem..."
Qu Tao coughed violently, and Mu Jingyan quickly took out a tissue and handed it to him.
"Did I offend you? President Qu, if it's inconvenient to answer, you don't have to."
"No, I just got drunk, and the rumor is not wrong."
Seeing that he was about to speak again, Qu Tao was worried that he would keep talking about this topic, so he stood up quickly.
"President Mu, excuse me, I'm going to the bathroom."
After coming out of the bathroom, Qu Tao stood in front of the sink and washed his hands and face.
Just as he was staring at the mirror, wondering why Mu Jingyan helped him, a few tissues were handed to him from the side.
"Have you been drinking?"
"Why are you here?" His eyes, which were already drunk, became even redder when he saw Xi Mozhou, "Are you following me?"
"Don't think I'm that dirty. I don't have this habit. The hotel was booked in advance by the school. It was just a coincidence."
Seeing that the water stains on his face were not wiped clean, Xi Mozhou took out a tissue and wiped it for him.
"It's easy to lose control when you're drunk. Don't drink anymore. When you want to leave, call me and I'll take you there."
"When did I lose control?"
Qu Tao grasped the point and angrily opened his arms. Xi Mozhou smiled wickedly and leaned over to whisper in his ear.
"The first time we did it, you seduced me when you were drunk."
"Nonsense."
Qu Tao tends to lose consciousness when he's drunk, but he never believed that he would seduce someone he had only spoken to a few words with and was not familiar with at all.
Because of Xi Mozhou, after returning to the private room, Qu Tao did not drink again. He was troubled for a long time and finally looked at Mu Jingyan.
"Mr. Mu, can I ask you something?"
"Mr. Qu, just say whatever you want to say. You don't need to be polite to me."
"Why are you willing to help me?"
Now the entire tobacco business circle is laughing at him, although he is very grateful that Mu Jingyan can stand up and talk to him about cooperation at this time.
But as the saying goes, there is no reward without merit. Some things are better to be asked in advance.
"I just said that I admire Mr. Qu's character."
"But we didn't have any contact before, how did Mr. Mu know me?"
"Because..." Mu Jingyan paused, and seemed to have made a big decision in his hesitation, "Because I like you."
"..." Qu Tao's head was buzzing.
Mu Jingyan saw that he had frightened the man, so in order to ease the embarrassment, he drank a glass of wine by himself before continuing.
"But don't worry, Mr. Qu. I'm helping you, but I don't intend to get anything from you."
"Well... Mr. Mu, I'm sorry, my assistant called and there's an important document that needs my signature, so I'll leave first."
Qu Tao stood up from the table without any hesitation. Mu Jingyan changed his address and called him.
"Qu Tao..."
Seeing him stop, Mu Jingyan hurriedly explained.
"I fell in love with you the first time I saw you at the last banquet. If you hadn't insisted on asking, I wouldn't have told you. And I'm not working with you to get any benefits from you."
The man's words were very sincere, but Qu Tao had made up his mind to leave.
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Mu. Sorry, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Back in the car, Qu Tao sat in the back seat waiting for the driver, and the back door was opened from the outside.
"It's over? Are you going home?"
Seeing Xi Mozhou getting in the car, Qu Tao felt a surge of resentment in his heart.
He was able to have what he has today, thanks to the man in front of him.
"Get off, I don't want to see you."
"I haven't done it for a few days, why is it so popular?"
