"Nothing much, it's just that besides Chuchen Company, I have other options."
After saying that, Xia Zhichu checked the time. It was exactly five minutes. He stood up and ended the chat. "It's time. I should go."
"Oh, by the way, I heard that Mr. Si just lost a bet with Xia Nianchen. I'll take that guy away later."
Without even looking at the man's ugly face, Xia Zhichu tactfully picked up her bag and stood up, just like that, passing by the man.
But no one knew how nervous she was at the moment.
She even counted one, two, three in her mind.
But when she counted to eight, the man still hadn't called her, which made Xia Zhichu a little uneasy. She even wanted to turn around in panic, for fear of missing such a good negotiation opportunity today.
"etc!"
Before he turned his head, Si Mochen's cold voice rang out.
Xia Zhichu wiped a cold sweat in his heart, but finally called her.
However, in order to achieve a better outcome in the negotiations, Xia Zhichu suppressed his nervousness and asked calmly, "Mr. Si, is there anything else?"
His tone was cold, but because of the faint smile on his face, he seemed clean and harmless.
It was precisely her behavior that made Si Mochen even more restless, and even his actions became uncontrollable. He grabbed Xia Zhichu's hand and with a little force, Xia Zhichu lost his balance, twisted his foot, and was pulled back, stumbling and falling directly onto the sofa.
Xia Zhichu's forehead hit the back of the chair. Although it was made of cotton, it still hurt because she hit it too hard. Her waist also hit the wooden armrest, so she groaned in pain.
"Si Mochen, you..."
"Tell me, did Ouyang Yunxiao also look for you?"
Before Xia Zhichu could finish her words, a powerful black shadow descended and Si Mochen pushed her against the back of the chair. Veins bulged on his handsome face due to anger, and his pupils were filled with bloodshot.
In recent years, due to the falling out with the Si family, there has been fierce competition between the Peak Group and the Si Group. Ouyang Yunxiao has been against him everywhere. Therefore, as long as Si Mochen hears Ouyang Yunxiao's name, he will easily lose control.
The key point is that Xia Zhichu is still planning to cooperate with Ouyang Yunxiao, which makes Si Mochen even more furious!
Xia Zhichu was frightened by the man's appearance. She curled up in his arms and trembled uncontrollably. The calmness she had pretended to have just disappeared. She said in a trembling voice, "If you don't sign a contract with me, I can't give up my design career. So I'm working with Ouyang Yunxiao, right?"
"Besides, you and I are getting divorced. Soon we'll be ex-husband and ex-wife. Who I'm willing to work with is none of...your business!"
Si Mochen was already furious, and Xia Zhichu's words made the man lose his mind and he grabbed her hand rudely.
"Before the divorce, you were still my Si Mochen's person. I naturally have the right to interfere with who you cooperate with!"
He lowered his handsome face, his deep, narrow and cold eyes embedded deeply into Xia Zhichu's pupils like eagle hooks.
The domineering and arrogant tone revealed the man's hatred for the Si family.
Just like a reverse scale, whoever touches it will have to pay the price.
Xia Zhichu pursed her lips, cold sweat oozing from her palms due to nervousness, but she rationally realized that her chance to negotiate had come.
So, facing the man's anger, Xia Zhichu bluntly put forward her demands, "If I don't cooperate with the Si Group, you have to give me custody of the child."
At this moment, Si Mochen finally understood that this was a self-torture trick of this woman.
He threatened me by cooperating with the Si family and forced me to give up custody.
She is indeed a scheming woman, far more resourceful than he imagined.
"Alright, Xia Zhichu, you're really amazing!" Si Mochen gritted his teeth and said this, but he obviously didn't intend to compromise. He also made a request, "You can ask me to give up the custody rights, and we can raise the child together. You also have to come to work at Chuchen Company."
Instead of watching Rumeng cooperate with her opponent, it would be better for her to stay by Chuchen's side and be used by him.
Of course, since Xia Zhichu dared to use the Si family as a bargaining chip to threaten me today, he should bear the price of angering me.
"Of course, after cooperating with Chuchen Company, you will be a member of Chuchen Company. You are not allowed to cooperate with any other company, and you must leave your current studio."
"As for the term of the agreement, it's indefinite!"
Xia Zhichu had long guessed that Si Mochen would do this, tying him up indefinitely and making him a pawn to create profits for Chuchen's company.
In other words, if she agreed to Si Mochen's conditions, she would never be able to escape from this man in her life.
Xia Zhichu felt very complicated, but when he thought about Si Mochen's willingness to give up the fight for custody of the child, he thought about it and nodded.
"Okay, I promise."
At this point, the war without gunpowder ended, but Xia Zhichu knew that his days would definitely not be easy from now on.
Because Si Mochen is now a madman who will take revenge. If she dares to threaten him today, this man will definitely make her regret what she did today.
When Yan Sen brought the cooperation agreement, Xia Zhichu saw the unfair terms in it and finally lost his temper because he could no longer bear it.
"Si Mochen, don't go too far."
In addition to the low salary, her designs are not allowed to participate in any competitions. Of course, she can participate, but she must do so in the name of the company.
These conditions are consistent with Ouyang Yunxiao's original terms.
It is true that there is no business without fraud.
These businessmen are all of the same character, they just want to use the face of capital to squeeze the lower-level people.
What Xia Zhichu could not accept the most was that he had to work overtime every day, not only on weekdays but also on weekends. As long as the company had a task, he had to be on call at any time.
This means that if she goes to work at Ruchu, she will not be able to spend time with her children.
This man was so cunning that he used this method to isolate the feelings of the three of them. Although they had agreed to raise the child together, Si Mochen clearly wanted to have sole custody of the child.
Xia Zhichu naturally wouldn't accept it. He threw the pen on the table and said coldly, "You are exploiting labor. I don't agree."
Si Mochen already knew that this woman would not obey obediently, and he raised his lips like a king, "If you don't agree, then cancel the cooperation."
"Of course, if you dare to cooperate with the Si Group in the future, I will ban you without any reason and make sure you have no place in the design industry anymore."
Heartless words, every word is cold and indifferent.
Xia Zhichu gnashed his teeth in hatred and really wanted to jump up and grab this dead man in the face, but he thought that Si Mochen would definitely do what he said. If he was banned, not only would he not be able to realize his dream, he would also lose his source of income.
If Si Mochen wants to fight for custody at that time, what can she use to fight him?
