Chapter 16 Big Tail Wolf
Qi Xing went home and fell into a deep sleep. He slept until nine in the morning, when he was woken up by a phone call from Yang Kaiming.
"Mr. Qi, are you okay? Did Ye Xingzhou send you back home last night? Did he do anything to you?"
Yang Kaiming's voice was somewhat uncertain, and he was very cautious for fear of upsetting Qi Xing. Qi Xing closed his eyes several times in a daze, and in his confused mind he finally remembered that it seemed that Ye Xingzhou had indeed sent him back last night.
And then, what happened?
The scenes of last night replayed in slow motion in his mind, freezing at the last moment when Ye Xingzhou looked down at him and said, "Why not? Didn't you say you are as beautiful as a flower?"
He sat up suddenly, all his sleepiness disappeared, and he didn't hold the phone firmly, it fell to the ground with a "bang". Yang Kaiming on the other end of the phone screamed: "Master Qi? What's wrong?"
Qi Xing picked up the phone and started to curse: "How dare you ask me what happened? You asked me what happened last night this morning? If something happened to me, it would be too late for you to collect my body now. Can I count on you?"
Yang Kaiming: "...So did he do anything to you?"
Qi Xing was so angry that he said, "Get lost."
Five minutes later, he stood in front of the bathroom sink, looking at the red marks on his neck, shoulders, and collarbone in the mirror, and raised his middle finger.
The beast Ye Xingzhou is the one who was born in the year of the dog.
damn it.
Qi Xing was so angry that he turned around twice on the spot. He had a lot of resentment and anger but had no place to vent it. He kicked the trash can, then jumped up, covering his foot.
He couldn't deceive himself, the marks on his body clearly told him that he was taken advantage of by the pervert Ye Xingzhou, and that Ye Xingzhou was really planning to take advantage of him.
...planning to attack him?
Clearly aware of this, Qi Xing's hair slowly stood up and he felt a chill all over his body.
Thinking of Ye Xingzhou's sinister face, he wished he could punch him a few more times.
At half past ten, Qi Xing appeared at the company gate and took the elevator directly to the chairman's office.
He had not planned to come to the company today, but Qi Ronghua called him half an hour ago and asked him in a serious tone to come and come up to his office.
Qi Xing knew with his toes that his father must be mad at him because of what happened last night. Although he used to go out to play every day, he never came home drunk like he did last night. He was sure to be scolded.
Qi Ronghua was indeed very angry. Even if he doted on his son, he did not want to raise a useless person who could do nothing but eat, drink and have fun, especially since the person who sent Qi Xing back last night was Ye Xingzhou. Even though he felt that Young Master Ye was too cunning at such a young age, they were also young men, and there was such a big gap between his son and him, which really made him feel unfair. So starting today, he decided to spend more time and effort on disciplining his son.
"From today on, you will follow me wherever I go and learn to do serious things from me."
Qi Xing blurted out: "How is that different from being in jail?"
Qi Ronghua raised his eyebrows: "Is it going to jail for you to follow me and do serious work?"
"It doesn't make much difference," Qi Xing laughed dryly, "I can't just go out and have fun with you, Dad, and I'll follow you."
Qi Ronghua picked up a document at hand and threw it at Qi Xing, who dodged quickly.
"Stop talking nonsense here. When did I ever live a life of debauchery?" Qi Ronghua scolded. Seeing the high-necked cashmere sweater Qi Xing was wearing, he became even more furious. "Who did you hook up with outside again? Look at what you looked like when you came back last night. If it wasn't for Master Ye sending you back, were you going to spend the night outside with some dubious guy? How many times have I told you to find someone to date, get married and start a family soon, and stop fooling around. You didn't listen to a word I said, right?"
Not mentioning Ye Xingzhou is not enough. When mentioning this beast, Qi Xing was also angry: "Then Dad, why don't you ask him who I hooked up with outside?"
Qi Ronghua paused and asked suspiciously, "What do you mean? How come you have a personal relationship with him? And why did you ask someone to send him a tie yesterday?"
Qi Xing certainly wouldn't say that Ye Xingzhou was targeting him, that would be too embarrassing, nor would he say that he wanted to steal Ye Xingzhou's girl, or else his father would skin him alive. He perfunctorily said, "We don't have much of a relationship, I accidentally soiled his shoes before, so I'm giving him one as compensation, and we just happened to run into each other last night."
After hearing what he said, Qi Ronghua did not think much about it. Mainly because of his son's character, Qi Ronghua really did not think that Young Master Ye would be interested in dealing with him. It was very likely that he sent him back last night just for his sake.
"It's okay if you don't have much of a relationship with him. You don't need to get too close to him. In the future, you should also avoid hanging out with those messy people outside. Forget about what happened yesterday. Don't let it happen again."
After Qi Ronghua finished teaching his son a lesson, he finally said, "Mr. Ye will come to the company in person to discuss an investment project with me in person. You should listen along. It doesn't matter if you don't understand. You will understand slowly if you study more. We will also treat him to a meal at noon."
Qi Xing: “…”
Is it too late for him to leave now?
Ten minutes later, Qi Ronghua's secretary knocked on the door and said that Ye's people had arrived. Qi Ronghua immediately stood up to greet them.
Qi Xing lazily stood up and saw Ye Xingzhou coming in. The man was still dressed respectably as usual, with the fist marks on his face gone. He brought three or four people with him. He shook hands and greeted Qi Ronghua as soon as he entered the room.
After saying a few words, Ye Xingzhou turned his gaze to Qi Xing and then extended his hand to him.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Qi Xing resisted the urge to roll his eyes and stretched out his hand.
"Mr. Qi, nice to meet you."
Ye Xingzhou's tone was indifferent, as if he was just shaking hands with him as a routine matter, but Qi Xing could clearly feel that when their hands were shaking, the other party pinched him hard, and their palms rubbed against each other's. Without waiting for him to glare at him, Ye Xingzhou let go of him as if nothing had happened and continued to talk with Qi Ronghua.
Qi Xing was filled with rage, but he at least remembered that this was his father's office, so he didn't dare to act rashly and had to hold it in.
After that, both parties sat down and got straight to the point.
The people from Ye's company came here today to discuss project financing with Ronghua Capital. Ye Xingzhou is indeed a tough guy when it comes to business. He is calm and at ease, and his aura is no less than those old foxes who have been immersed in the business world for many years.
Even though Qi Ronghua had been doing well in business over the years, he still felt quite pressured when he met someone like Ye Xingzhou, even though this person looked polite and amiable.
Qi Xing watched coldly from the side, and he disliked Ye Xingzhou more and more. It was Ye Xingzhou who was shameless and took advantage of others' misfortune, and it was also Ye Xingzhou who pretended to be a decent person in front of his father. He wished he could peel off this man's skin on the spot and let everyone see what kind of person he was inside.
"Young Master Ye said so much, but he just wanted my dad to invest money. He asked for 1 billion yuan and said the return rate would be more than 10 times. Who knows if you are just bragging? Your Ye family is big and powerful, it's enough for you to invest on your own, why do you need to recruit others to join?"
Qi Xing opened his mouth to find fault. Qi Ronghua hesitated for a moment but did not interrupt him. Ye Xingzhou looked over and said calmly, "Whether you are bragging or not, it is written in the plan. Mr. Qi can read it and evaluate it himself. As for why you want to invite Ronghua Capital to join, I have just said that it is nothing more than Ronghua Capital has the strength to do so."
Qi Xing casually flipped open the business plan on the coffee table and read a few pages at a glance. The company that wanted to raise funds was an energy technology company. There were only three original shareholders, and Ye was the largest shareholder. The target amount of the B round of financing was over 5 billion, led by Ye. The founder of this company also came with Ye Xingzhou today, specifically to help Qi Ronghua answer professional questions.
Qi Xing couldn't tell whether the project was good or not, but his father had indeed been investing in the high-tech industry in the past two years and wanted to expand his business in this area. Ye Xingzhou's approaching him was a good move for him.
I just don't know whether this big-tailed wolf has brought back a golden treasure or a time bomb.
Ye Xingzhou talked to Qi Ronghua about something later, but Qi Xing was absent-minded and didn't listen much.
Qi Ronghua was obviously interested in this project. Although he did not agree to it right away, there was indeed room for discussion. However, a project worth 1 billion yuan could not be finalized in just one or two days.
At noon, Qi Ronghua took the initiative to invite Ye Xingzhou and his group to have lunch together, and Ye Xingzhou did not refuse.
Qi Ronghua still had some things to take care of, so he asked Qi Xing to accompany Ye Xingzhou and the others downstairs first.
Without his father by his side, Qi Xing was too lazy to pretend and simply ignored Ye Xingzhou as he took the elevator downstairs. Ye Xingzhou stood behind him calmly, and didn't seem to mind being given a cold shoulder when he came to discuss business.
The elevator went directly to the first floor. The moment the door opened, Ye Xingzhou suddenly turned his head and whispered in Qi Xing's ear: "It's also on the back of your neck."
The high-necked cashmere sweater couldn't cover up the marks he had made while helping Qi Xing last night.
Qi Xing's face changed, and Ye Xingzhou had already walked out of the elevator.
From beginning to end, he was a gentleman who remained calm, generous and elegant. No one except Qi Xing noticed what happened just now.
Qi Xing resisted the urge to fight with him again on the spot, and kept reminding himself to stay calm. Ye Xingzhou was a psychopath, but he was not, so he should not lower his standards.
On the way to the hotel, Qi Xing looked back and saw Ye Xingzhou's car behind him. He curled his lips and asked Qi Ronghua beside him: "Dad, are you really going to invest in this project? I think Ye Xingzhou is not a good person. Do you want to reconsider it?"
Qi Ronghua said with a smile: "What does it matter? Even if he kills people and burns things, business is business. This project is indeed profitable, and your grandfather is optimistic about him. There is no reason for me to refuse a business that comes to my door."
Qi Xing: "I haven't heard Dad say that you have had much contact with the Ye Group before? Why did Ye Xingzhou come to you? When did it happen?"
Qi Ronghua said casually: "It was two days ago, after I came back from attending the wedding at the Ye family."
Qi Xing wanted to ask more, but his father continued, "I didn't want to teach you this before, but now I think I'll tell you. For someone like Ye Xingzhou, no matter how dishonorable the means by which he got to the top are, it has nothing to do with us. I've seen many people with bad character like his family. So what? Business is business, and we just need to keep a close eye on it and not let them scheme against us. Character issues are something you only think about when you marry your children to your parents."
"..." Qi Xing thought about it and decided to just shut up.
