Chapter 517 If
Qin Yu looked at the tense atmosphere and felt extremely uncomfortable as Jiang Mozhou had not come out to express his opinion for a long time.
Finally, he steeled his heart and stepped forward to smooth things over: "Hey, Mr. Jiang, we've discussed the Hengyuan contract with Tang Qing. She thinks it's a good opportunity."
Jiang Budu: "Really?"
Qin Yu: “…”
"Mr. Jiang." Shi Chen called him and said calmly, "We are not acquaintances. There is no need to discuss my personal feelings with you in detail."
Jiang Budu: "Don't make such high-sounding statements. You just don't want to give up your own interests for her, and you don't have the capital to do so."
"Indeed." Shi Chen readily admitted this. "Mr. Jiang has much more capital than I do. Why didn't he give up the benefits of the marriage sooner?"
As soon as this question was asked, there was dead silence all around.
Qin Yu felt very disappointed. Offending Jiang Budu was not a wise choice for PE.
Although Shi Chen's rhetorical question just now was really satisfying——
"That's a good question." Jiang Mozhou, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
He put down the cup, clapped his hands, and looked at Jiang Budu beside him: "You really should think about this seriously."
Jiang Budu's cell phone suddenly rang at this moment.
He picked up his phone, glanced at the screen, said to Jiang Mozhou, "I'm leaving first," and then left the box without looking back. Jiang Mozhou looked at his back, smiled, and did not stop him.
Jiang Mozhou knew very well that Jiang Budu was broken by Shi Chen's attitude - he deliberately mentioned his past with Tang Qing in front of Shi Chen, intending to suppress Shi Chen, but Shi Chen did not fall for it at all and used the same method to deal with him.
Jiang Budu was forced to use the plan to mock him for not considering Tang Qing's feelings.
In the end, Shi Chen still didn't fall into his trap, and instead mocked him with his engagement with Gu Yan.
Shi Chen's tone sounded very polite, but he never backed down for fear of offending Jiang Budu. He always defended Tang Qing, which was consistent with Jiang Mozhou's first impression of him.
He is indeed a person worth entrusting your life to.
Jiang Budu's defense was broken not because he was ridiculed by Shi Chen, but because Shi Chen was willing to fight him to protect Tang Qing even though he knew there was a huge gap in their strength. This shows that Tang Qing's position in his heart is more important than anything else.
Jiang Budu clearly realized this from Shi Chen's behavior, so he broke down his defenses severely.
He could no longer brainwash himself with reasons like "Shi Chen may not love Tang Qing that much" or "Shi Chen will give up Tang Qing for the sake of profit sooner or later."
For him, this meant that his already slim hope was further weakened by half.
How can it not break the defense?
Jiang Mozhou withdrew his gaze from the door of the box and looked at Shi Chen and Qin Yu across from him. "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. Don't worry about him. Let's continue."
Jiang Mozhou raised his glass to toast them, "I apologize for what happened just now. I'm sorry."
Qin Yu smiled and waved his hands, "It's okay, it's okay, Mr. Jiang, you're too polite."
After Jiang Mozhou and Qin Yu clinked their glasses, they moved the cup in front of Shi Chen.
Shi Chen picked up his cup and clinked it with his, "Thank you, Mr. Jiang."
Jiang Mozhou took a sip of juice, sat down, and said with a smile, "He didn't give up and wanted to see if you were really that good. Now that he's confirmed, he feels uncomfortable."
Qin Yu narrowed his eyes.
After hearing what Jiang Mozhou said, he suddenly realized something - Jiang Mozhou had just deliberately left it alone and let the two of them confront each other?
Jiang Budu wanted to provoke Shi Chen to see if Shi Chen was tough enough and whether he would fight him for Tang Qing.
Jiang Budu's original assumption was that he wouldn't dare, but Shi Chen's reaction was beyond his expectations.
Qin Yu sighed silently. Not to mention Jiang Budu, even he was surprised.
He and Shi Chen had known each other since their junior year in college, and it had been ten years now. They had studied and started a business together. Shi Chen had always been a mature and rational person. He had been very clear about his relationships and the companies he had established in his previous relationships.
But this time, after talking with Tang Qing, he seemed like a different person.
Maybe this is the legendary lethality of the white moonlight?
Facing Jiang Mozhou's praise, Shi Chen just said calmly: "This is what I should do."
If he can't even provide basic maintenance and trust, then he is not qualified to be Tang Qing's boyfriend.
Jiang Mozhou nodded approvingly and said to him, "Send me an invitation when you get married, I'll go and share in the joy."
——
After Jiang Budu came out of the hotel, he drove all the way to the Science Park.
Kelan was not far from the hotel. When Jiang Budu came over, Kelan was still having lunch and Fu Xijing was reading in the office.
I was reading the "Pregnancy Guide".
Fu Xijing frowned when he saw Jiang Budu push the door open and walk in, "Don't you know how to knock before you come?"
Jiang Budu didn't answer. He walked to the sofa opposite Fu Xijing and sat down. He picked up the bottle of water on the coffee table, unscrewed it, and drank half of it in one breath.
He looked angry and his face was very ugly, as if he had suffered a blow.
Fu Xijing put the book on the coffee table and looked at him: "What's wrong with you now?"
Ever since Tang Qing started dating Shi Chen, Jiang Budu has often been irritated and would go crazy in front of them from time to time. Fu Xijing has become accustomed to this and can do nothing about it.
When Tang Qing was pregnant, he did everything he could to help, but Jiang Budu was too embarrassed to ask Tang Qing to give him a chance. Now that the child is gone and there is a life between them, it would be ridiculous to talk about love.
What's more, according to Song Yi, Tang Qing and Shi Chen are doing well now. The two of them being together can make up for the regrets of their student days.
Jiang Budu has nothing to do with this story now, but he just refuses to come out.
"It's nothing. Come and sit here for a while. Don't worry about me." Jiang Budu waved his hand and didn't say much to Fu Xijing.
He glanced at the book on the coffee table and paused, "Why are you reading this again?"
"Is Song Yi pregnant?" Jiang Budu immediately guessed this possibility.
Fu Xijing hummed, "I just checked it out over the weekend. According to the rules of the elders, I won't tell anyone for now."
Jiang Budu suddenly laughed, and after laughing, tears suddenly came down.
Fu Xijing was startled by him: "Are you crazy?"
Jiang Budu's eyes were fixed on the book, and the big words on the cover became increasingly blurred.
He crossed his fingers, gradually tightening them, and pursed his lips. "If I had begged her to keep the child, would the outcome have been different?"
Fu Xijing felt a little complicated.
He and Jiang Budu have known each other since they were wearing open-crotch pants. This is the first time he has seen him cry like this in thirty years.
It is impossible to say that there will be no disturbance. He also wants to help him, but the current situation makes the hope too slim.
Fu Xijing sighed, looked at him, and said earnestly: "Don't think about it. There is no if in the world. You didn't seize the opportunity when you had it. Now you should forget it."
