"Brother Xiao, I have read all the information Louis sent. I think cooperation with the Grayer Group is very feasible, but some of the details need to be..."
It was snowing outside the window. Yang Jie poured the hot tea into a small purple clay cup and gently pushed it in front of Xiao Yuanmu. Seeing that he did not move, he looked up and saw him gazing at the snowy scene with a thoughtful expression.
He paused for a moment before lowering his eyes and said, "Brother Xiao, the Song family is having a birthday party today. Young Master Song will rush back to his family home right after work and will probably not look for you. You don't have to worry."
Xiao Yuanmu turned his cold face around. Compared with the thin snow covering the grass and trees outside the window, his eyes were even colder, but his voice was very calm: "This is not your business, Wang Dong."
Yang Jie lowered his eyes and trembled. After a while, he said, "That Second Young Master Song doesn't like you at all and doesn't take you seriously. If he cared about you, he would at least inform you of today's birthday party, but..."
"Wang Dong."
Xiao Yuanmu's voice was cold, but contained a warning.
Yang Jie pursed his lips. His real name was Yang Jie, but he had always hated his alcoholic and violent father. After his mother's accident last time, he changed his name. However, everyone who was familiar with him here was used to his name, and Xiao Yuanmu also said that he should be called by this name temporarily, and it would be more appropriate to change it back when he left. Therefore, Xiao Yuanmu always called him Yang Jie.
I only call him Wang Dong when I'm angry.
Before this, he had only heard Xiao Yuanmu call him Wang Dong once, and that was for Song Xuanhe.
The first time was on a Wednesday two weeks ago. It rained heavily on Tuesday night. Xiao Yuanmu's car was parked at the gate of the yard. A tree was blown down and hit the car, so he drove to pick up Xiao Yuanmu. Song Xuanhe was also there at the time. The atmosphere between them was a little weird. He had never liked Song Xuanhe, so he didn't ask much. But when he saw Song Xuanhe's cold expression, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
So after sending Song Xuanhe to the company gate, he couldn't help but say, "Brother Xiao, you're leaving soon. When are you going to break up with him?"
Xiao Yuanmu watched Song Xuanhe enter the Song Corporation building, then retracted his gaze and said calmly, "Is my leaving necessarily related to my breaking up with him?"
Yang Jie was stunned for a moment, then he was shocked when he realized what was going on. He blurted out his thoughts: "Brother Xiao! You don't mean that you will stay with Song Xuanhe after you go abroad! He's a playboy, maybe he will cheat on you as soon as you leave, and even if he doesn't cheat, he may not be willing to have a long-distance relationship with you!"
Xiao Yuanmu's eyes, which were originally smiling, suddenly turned cold, but Yang Jie was his most loyal subordinate and friend who had accompanied him for two lifetimes, so his tone was still very calm: "You don't have to like him, but I don't want to hear you say anything bad about him behind his back. Forget it this time, don't let it happen again."
If Yang Jie knew Xiao Yuanmu well enough in his previous life, he would have shut up after hearing his words. But at this time, Yang Jie and Xiao Yuanmu did not get along so well. Moreover, ever since he found out how Song Xuan and Xiao Yuanmu were together, he has always hated Song Xuan and rich kids like him who bully others by taking advantage of their power, and he didn't want Xiao Yuanmu to be with him even more.
"Brother Xiao, every time I see him, he never treats you well. Before, he relied on his background to get you to be with him, but now you don't need to be constrained by him. Moreover, you like him, but he doesn't like you. You can tell from his expression when he was with you this morning!"
Xiao Yuanmu's originally cold brows relaxed when he heard Yang Jie talking about Song Xuan's cold expression in the morning. He even couldn't help but curl his lower lip. It was just a matter of helping each other in the morning between men. He didn't expect that he would be so angry. Thinking of his dark face when he rushed out of bed to wash his hands, Xiao Yuanmu's smile deepened.
"I don't need your advice on what's going on between him and me."
Xiao Yuanmu was in a better mood and his tone was relatively gentle, but Yang Jie mistakenly thought that Xiao Yuanmu didn't care about what he just said, so he continued to speak out his thoughts: "Brother Xiao, I don't think Song Xuanhe is worthy of you at all. He is just a rich second-generation who lives on the protection of his ancestors and waits for death. He is completely incomparable to you. No matter in which aspect, you and him are not a good match. Besides, long-distance relationships are difficult to maintain, and he doesn't seem to like you at all. By then..."
"Wang Dong."
Xiao Yuanmu raised his eyes, his eyes were filled with coldness, even through the rearview mirror, one could still feel the substantial coldness, he said: "I don't want to say it for the third time, the matter between him and me doesn't need your advice."
The man in the back seat spoke in a neutral tone, even clear and pleasant, but it made Yang Jie break out in a cold sweat. He gripped the steering wheel tightly and whispered, "I know."
At that time, Yang Jie thought about never caring about the relationship between Xiao Yuanmu and Song Xuanhe again. However, Song Xuanhe was too much. He and Xiao Yuanmu were obviously in a relationship, but he not only did not invite him to attend the birthday party of Mr. Song Yansong, but he did not even inform him.
Song Xuanhe didn't take Brother Xiao seriously at all. Yang Jie knew it very well. Some people in this world looked gentle, elegant and easy to get along with, but in fact their hearts were colder than anyone else. Some people seemed cold and difficult to approach, but in fact they were softer than anyone else. Song Xuanhe was the former, and Xiao Yuanmu was the latter.
If these two are together, the only one who will get hurt is Xiao Yuanmu.
Xiao Yuanmu was not only his savior, but also the person he admired from the bottom of his heart and planned to follow for the rest of his life. He absolutely did not want to see him fall into the trap of Song Xuan and that kind of good-for-nothing and cold-hearted dandy.
Yang Jie drank the hot tea on the table, looked at Xiao Yuanmu and said, "Brother Xiao, I know you don't like me talking about Young Master Song. In fact, if possible, I don't want to talk about him, but look at this period of time. It has been half a month. You are so busy that you don't even have time to eat lunch, but you still take time to make dinner for him to eat when he comes back. But what about him? Did he appreciate it? Not only did he not come, he also chatted with friends, drank, played ball, went to bars and sang. He has plenty of people to accompany him. He doesn't need you at all and doesn't care about you at all."
Xiao Yuanmu looked at the purple clay teapot and cup in his hand. His white fingers contrasted sharply with the dark purple clay teapot. In the ancient pavilion, on the tea table, there was a shocking beauty.
He didn't even raise his eyes, didn't seem angry, and said calmly: "What else?"
Encouraged, Yang Jie spoke more earnestly: "Brother Xiao, he doesn't even want to give you a real identity to the outside world, why do you like him so much? With your conditions, it's easy to like anyone, why do you have to like Song Xuan and that kind of heartless person?"
"That's all."
Xiao Yuanmu raised his eyes, his eyes were calm, but for some reason, Yang Jie felt a very dangerous feeling.
"Now that we're done, let's go." Xiao Yuanmu put down the cup and stood up. Seeing Yang Jie still sitting there, he lowered his eyes to look at him and said calmly, "Third time is better than another. I've reminded you twice not to interfere in the matter between him and me. I don't want to remind you a fourth time."
Yang Jie was stunned, and his panic became worse. He opened his mouth to say something, but Xiao Yuanmu had already walked out of the pavilion and into the snow. His voice seemed to be stained with frost and snow, and it was extremely cold: "I will give you five million. This money can guarantee the future life of you and your mother. After today, don't come to me again."
Xiao Yuanmu had long legs and fast feet, and his back was about to disappear around the corner of the rockery. Yang Jie stared at him in a daze, and only suddenly reacted when he was blown by the cold wind. He chased after him without even having time to grab his coat.
"Brother Xiao!"
Yang Jie had never admired anyone so much in his entire life. Xiao Yuanmu was the first, and he believed that he would be the only one. He had already decided to follow him and be his right-hand man for the rest of his life, and he was not willing to stop here.
"Brother Xiao, I was wrong! There will never be a next time!" Yang Jie ran very fast. When he saw Xiao Yuanmu's back, he sped up again. When he accidentally bumped into someone, he just apologized hurriedly: "Sorry."
He chased after him, stood in front of Xiao Yuanmu to block his way, and pleaded with regret: "I really know I was wrong, Brother Xiao, I promise that I will never say anything related to Song Xuanhe again, please don't give up on me."
Yang Jie really regretted it. He shouldn't have said bad things about Song Xuanhe. No matter what Song Xuanhe was like, she was the person Brother Xiao liked. There was no room for a third person to interfere in the relationship between two people. It was normal for Brother Xiao to be angry. If someone questioned the person he liked, he would definitely be angry.
Xiao Yuanmu said nothing, but did not walk around him and leave. He just looked at him coldly.
Yang Jie heaved a sigh of relief and said, "What happened between you and Young Master Song is your own business. You are a couple, so no matter what happens, you and him should solve it. I will never say anything I shouldn't say again. When I see him next time..."
"Hey!" Before Yang Jie could finish his words, he was interrupted by a laughing voice: "I was wondering who looked so familiar? It turned out to be my cousin's lover? Why, you can't be seen at the old man's birthday party today, so he didn't bring you along?"
Song Jiabao walked over with a smile on his face. He was furious when he was bumped into by someone just now. He didn't expect that the person who bumped into him was actually Song Xuan and that little lover's man. Moreover, Song Xuan and that boy were not there. Isn't this a chance for God to give him a chance to vent his anger!
Seeing Xiao Yuanmu didn't say anything, he pushed Yang Jie away and walked to the opposite side of him. When he saw Xiao Yuanmu's face, which was more flawless than the snow in the ice and snow, he couldn't help but flash a trace of surprise in his eyes. When he spoke again, his tone changed: "Looking closely, he does have a good face. Otherwise, how could he be so charming that my cousin was so confused and even hooked up with Boss Sun on the cruise ship, making him chase Song Er for you. Otherwise, you dump Song Er and follow me, and I promise to take you directly to the old man's banquet and let you walk in with dignity. How about it?"
Yang Jie had already clenched his fists when he heard the first sentence, but he held back when he saw Xiao Yuanmu's restraining look. He could no longer bear it after hearing what Song Jiabao said, so he kicked him in the waist, causing his head to fall into the snow pile beside him and said coldly: "Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to Brother Xiao like that?"
Song Jiabao never expected that Xiao Yuanmu's men would dare to fight him. When he got up, his expression was a little shocked. His face was twisted and he gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know who I am? I have to attend Mr. Song's banquet later. If I tell others about this, believe it or not, you won't be able to enter the Song family, and you won't even be able to stay in the imperial capital!"
"Then I won't let you go to the Song family's banquet!"
Yang Jie stepped forward again. Song Jiabao was prepared, but he was no match for Yang Jie who had received professional training, and was knocked to the ground by him again. He quickly threatened that if they dared to touch him today, he would kill them tomorrow. However, under Yang Jie's ruthless kicks and beatings, he could only curl up and beg for mercy.
Xiao Yuanmu had been watching from the side, and only raised his hand to stop him when he saw that it was almost time. Under Yang Jie's puzzled gaze, he said lightly: "Wait for someone to come here later, go to the parking lot, and remember to leave him some air."
Song Jiabao raised his head in disbelief, and felt a chill on his back when he saw Xiao Yuanmu's cold and indifferent gaze. Only then did he realize how scared he was.
The author has something to say:
Song Xuanhe: I would never sleep in the same bed with Xiao Yuanmu again, even if you kill me! Fortunately, I held it in and didn’t let him know that I didn’t have premature ejaculation!
after a while:
Xiao Yuanmu: It turns out you didn’t lie to me.
Song Xuanhe:! ! ! A man’s first time doesn’t count! ! !
