The private room was quiet for a while.
A moment later, crisp applause rang out in the private room.
The man opposite Huo Beixiao, who looked to be about the same age, smiled wickedly and said, "Very well, Miss Jiang, you are a heroine indeed. I admire you. I'll sign this contract!"
As he spoke, he picked up the contract from the table and quickly signed his name.
Jiang Qiaoqiao gestured for Tong Xuejiao to check the contract, while she extended her hand to Yan Qinghe and said, "President Yan, I wish us a pleasant cooperation."
"Ms. Jiang, rest assured, the cooperation will definitely be pleasant."
At this moment, Tong Xuejiao finished reading the contract and said, "The contract is fine. Mr. Yan, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you."
Yan Qinghe nodded slightly to Tong Xuejiao.
Jiang Qiaoqiao gently patted Huo Beixiao's shoulder, who was already completely drunk and unconscious. "Huo Beixiao, let's go home."
Huo Beixiao vaguely heard Jiang Qiaoqiao's voice.
He instinctively pulled Jiang Qiaoqiao into his arms, saying, "My wife doesn't drink, I'll drink!"
Yan Qinghe's gaze fell on Jiang Qiaoqiao's face, and he said meaningfully, "President Huo is really a man who cherishes women. No wonder he was able to marry such a beautiful wife as Miss Ye and have such a confidante as President Tong."
Upon hearing this, Tong Xuejiao frowned. Yan Qinghe's words were clearly meant to sow discord.
Although she and Jiang Qiaoqiao didn't get along to begin with.
But it's one thing for them to have a bad relationship, and it's another thing for Yan Qinghe, an outsider, to try to sow discord.
Jiang Qiaoqiao smiled and looked at Yan Qinghe, "It seems that President Yan is not married, does not have any female confidantes, and has never even worked with female colleagues. That's why he sees female business partners as male confidantes."
As soon as Jiang Qiaoqiao finished speaking, Tong Xuejiao immediately understood and extended her hand to Yan Qinghe, "President Yan, I am honored to be President Yan's first female partner. I hope that through this cooperation, President Yan can distinguish between a partner and a confidante."

Jiang Qiaoqiao helped Huo Beixiao walk outside.
Tong Xuejiao wanted to help, but Huo Beixiao, though quite drunk, kept a straight face and said seriously, "Men and women should not touch each other, Miss Tong..."
Tong Xuejiao couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Looking at Jiang Qiaoqiao's petite body supporting Huo Beixiao's tall frame, I felt a strange pang of sympathy for her.
When drunk, Huo Beixiao not only wouldn't let Tong Xuejiao touch him, but even Zhu Dong and Guo Tao couldn't get close to him.
Helpless, Jiang Qiaoqiao could only rely on her own strength to help Huo Beixiao into the car.
"call--"
After placing the completely drunk Huo Beixiao on the back seat, Jiang Qiaoqiao herself slumped back in the back seat and let out a long sigh of relief.
But before he could catch his breath, he was suddenly pulled into a strong and powerful embrace.
Before Jiang Qiaoqiao could even process what was happening, a fluffy head buried itself in the crook of her neck.
A pair of large hands held her tightly, "Wife, you smell so good..."
Jiang Qiaoqiao: ...
She subconsciously glanced at Zhu Dong and Guo Tao, who were sitting in the driver's seat and passenger seat.
Zhu Dong and Guo Tao were also keeping an eye on the situation behind them through the rearview mirror, originally thinking that if Boss Huo needed anything, they could rush to help.
Who knows...
When their gazes met Jiang Qiaoqiao's in their rearview mirrors, they quickly looked away, keeping their eyes down, as if they were wooden figures, unable to see or hear anything.
Jiang Qiaoqiao didn't dare to break free, afraid that she would provoke the man into saying something that would make him furious.
All I could do was close my eyes and pretend to be dead, praying that I would get to the hotel soon.

Tong Xuejiao watched Jiang Qiaoqiao's car drive away.
A bitter smile crept across her lips. "Now I understand why Huo Beixiao fell for her. I underestimated her before."
Her assistant, He Xiao, followed beside her, not daring to comment, but could only remind her, "Sister Xuejiao, you've had a long day, you should go back to the hotel!"
She chuckled softly. "You go back first. I want to walk around by myself."
"Sister Xuejiao, you're unfamiliar with this place..." He Xiao said anxiously.
Tong Xuejiao frowned slightly, "Just go back now, don't waste any more words!"
He Xiao had been Tong Xuejiao's assistant for several years and knew Tong Xuejiao's temper, so he had no choice but to leave.
Tong Xuejiao walked slowly along the roadside towards the hotel by herself.
But some things just kept playing out of control in her mind like a movie.
Huo Beixiao is like an ice sculpture, always cold to everyone, but they worked together seamlessly when they were doing business on the black market.
She always thought she was special to Huo Beixiao.
Over the years, Huo Beixiao had remained unmarried, and she assumed he was waiting for her.
As she thought about it, tears involuntarily streamed down her cheeks.
She couldn't help but squat down by the roadside and burst into tears.
She didn't know how long she had been crying when a mocking voice suddenly rang out from above, "Tsk tsk, the famous female entrepreneur from Haicheng, she looks really ugly when she cries!"
Tong Xuejiao quickly wiped away her tears, stood up, clenched her fists angrily, and threw a punch at Yan Heqing, "You surnamed Yan, who are you calling ugly!"
Yan Heqing easily grasped her small fist with his large hand and sneered, "Tsk tsk, you throw your fist at the drop of a hat, where is your womanly demeanor? No wonder Huo Beixiao doesn't like you!"
Tong Xuejiao snorted coldly, "You talk as if you're so great. Didn't your childhood sweetheart dump you and run off with a foreigner?"
"You..." Yan Heqing's arrogant expression finally crumbled, and she said somewhat exasperatedly, "You should worry about yourself. You're already a twenty-seven-year-old woman and still not married. Be careful you don't end up alone!"
