"Is it unfair? Is it a pity? But this position originally belonged to him. I took Xiaoyu's position and I also took away Xiaoyu's love. If anything is unfair, it is unfair to Xiaoyu. It is Xiaoyu who says it is a pity. Don't you find what you are saying now ridiculous?"
A calm, unassuming remark caused Amy's expression to change drastically, while Qi Jiu, standing at the door, smiled faintly.
Whether she was just saying it or meant it sincerely, she now had a certain interest in the Chong family, and even more interest in Chongming.
The moment that thought crossed my mind, my phone started buzzing in my pocket.
Looking at the message, her smile widened. "It seems I've been cynical all along."
One should always be wary of others, but now it seems she was overthinking it; the world doesn't seem as bad as she thought.
With a 'click', the office door opened, interrupting the farce that was unfolding inside.
"You've talked enough, it's time to get down to business."
Back in her seat, Qi Jiu looked at Amy, who still seemed somewhat dissatisfied, and tapped her fingers rhythmically on the table, as if she were thinking or observing.
"The terms offered by Xingluo for this collaboration are indeed quite good."
Seeing the somewhat anxious expression on Chongming's face, Xinglu smiled. "But Xingyue is a company that keeps its promises. We won't easily go back on our word. I think Xinglu understands what I'm saying, right?"
Besides, even if Chongming didn't come today, this cooperation still belongs to the Chong family.
She never imagined that this collaboration would be handed over to Xingluo.
"President Qi, the conditions offered by Xingluo are not bad either. You should understand the benefits..."
“I understand perfectly well, but credibility is also important. I think this is the first principle of interpersonal relationships. You may have your own opinions, but I have my principles.”
Finally, Amy looked terrible. She glanced back at Qi Jiu, her teeth clenched, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
But the girl didn't give her that chance at all.
"Thank you for your kind offer, Xingluo Group, but I think your group won't last much longer, will it? And you're here today not just for cooperation, right?"
Just now, Nefelin gave her the latest news about Starfall.
The world is both very big and very small.
Unexpectedly, the founder of Xingluo was an old acquaintance. Their previous encounter was just a coincidence, or perhaps a kind of ill-fated relationship.
"you……"
Amy looked at the person smiling at her in her seat, feeling annoyed but having nowhere to vent her anger, and simply turned and left.
Perhaps it was out of anger, or perhaps it was out of guilt.
Yes, Qi Jiu is right. She didn't come here today just to snatch the cooperation. Xingluo has a bigger ambition: to annex Xingyue. It's just that now...
The office suddenly fell silent. Chongming had heard everything that had just been said, and a smile appeared on his face as he looked at Qijiu.
"Thank you, Miss Qi. If it were someone else, they would have chosen Xingluo by now."
Good terms that are in one's own interest, few people could refuse them, right?
Qi Jiu looked at him and shook her head. "What I said just now was from the bottom of my heart. If a group doesn't have credibility, it will be hard for it to go far."
Reputation is something that spreads. If people later hear that Xingyue has no credibility, what business partners will be willing to come?
Having received the answer he wanted, Chongming smiled.
Just as Chongming was about to leave, and his hand touched the doorknob, a voice came from behind him again.
"Are you slowly letting go? Has Chongyu been gradually getting the hang of things lately?" Thinking about the message Qi Silin had just sent, this was the only answer.
Chongming paused, turning to look at her. "I don't understand what you're saying."
"If you're worried that Chongyu might know something else, I won't tell you."
The girl's voice was tinged with laughter, and her gaze remained fixed on Chongming, making him inexplicably uneasy and even a little guilty.
Chongming opened his mouth, clearly wanting to say something, but in the end, he didn't utter a single word.
His eyes darted around, clearly not wanting to say anything, but when he met Qi Jiu's gaze, it was as if he had drunk the truth potion, and he couldn't hide it at all. In the end, he could only give a bitter smile as if he had resigned himself to his fate.
"Yes, but I don't want Xiaoyu to know, because I'm afraid he'll misunderstand..."
"Are you afraid he'll misunderstand and think you're deliberately letting him win?"
Before Chongming could finish speaking, the person in front of the desk interrupted him.
This idea came to me with just a little thought.
As the young master of a large family, Chongyu naturally has an incredibly strong sense of self-esteem. Moreover, Chongming has been caught in the middle of this family for so long that it may have long been a source of anxiety for Chongyu.
After such a long period of awkwardness, it is indeed somewhat suspicious to suddenly let go.
I imagine Chongyu must have thought of that too.
Looking at the silent Chongming, the girl suddenly tilted her head. "But I still want to ask, after being in the Chong family for so long, aren't you even a little bit tempted by them?"
Humans are greedy, especially those who have already experienced wealth and luxury.
Chongming pursed his lips, then suddenly smiled. "My heart is fluttering."
He looked up at the girl with unwavering eyes, "But for wealth and status, I want family and love more. Everything I have now is a gift from heaven. Money is material, and I can work hard for it, but love is different."
This time, Qi Jiu looked at Chong Ming and seemed to see him in a new light.
After Chongming left, the girl looked at the documents on the table, pursed her lips, and then reached back to take out her phone.
Looking at the information above, the smile on his lips grew gentler.
Perhaps there are many good people in this world.
"Wang De".
"BOSS." With a call, Wang De appeared immediately.
"Go and prepare some presentable gifts."
Chongjia.
Qi Jiu looked at the man in front of her and smiled. "Go get your things from the back seat."
Liu Yun looked at her master, who had finally managed to leave empty-handed, and pursed her lips.
Qi Silin nodded and went to get the things without hesitation. Even though he had so many things that he couldn't carry them all, he still had a smile on his face.
"Knock knock knock!"
Upon seeing the newcomers, Chong's father's face instantly broke into a smile. "Ah Lin, Miss Qi? I'm so sorry for not greeting you sooner. Please come in."
Qi Jiu looked at the features that resembled Chong Yu's and smiled.
Stepping into the room and sensing the quiet environment, she instinctively asked, "Uncle, where's Chongyu?"
Mentioning Chongyu, Chong's father's face lit up with a smile and pride. "He's out negotiating collaborations; he's been quite busy lately."
