Amidst the crowd’s applause, Mu Yuchen slowly walked onto the stage.
Her heart was throbbing as she saw him slowly close in on her. Her eyes were moving along with his figure, and she looked up slightly when he was right in front of her.
His eyes were as deep as the dark sea. He studied her for a long while before he put on a smile. Then, he lowered himself and whispered beside her ear, “Tell what you just said again tonight...”
He ran his fingers through her slightly ssy hair. Before she could react, he retracted his hands and grabbed the trophy from the host and handed it to her along with an exquisite looking gift box with so other prizes inside.
This girl was getting more and more daring now to the point that she just confessed her love for him in public without getting embarrassed. On the contrary, he was the one that felt embarrassed.
Xi Xiaye looked at him as she took the prizes from him. The crowd gave another round of applause with many people shouting for Mu Yuchen to confess his love as well. However, he just smiled and kissed her on her lips.
“Xi Xiaye, I’ve never won ever since I t you.” He sighed before patting her head, and then the two of them walked off the stage.
Xi Xiaye bead and just followed him as Li Si and the others quickly went over.
As they just walked out of the Imperial Sky Hotel, they saw Qi Lei standing around casually by the staircase with both his hands in his pockets. He gave Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye a aningful glance while Yang Sheng stood behind him.
The first one to greet them was Yang Sheng. He gave Qi Lei a careful glance before he called out, “Chairman Mu, Director Xi!”
Mu Yuchen nodded, but his eyes were fixed on Qi Lei. He and Xi Xiaye slowly stopped their steps.
“Why aren’t you going up?” Mu Yuchen asked him.
“I just don’t want to. Qi Kai’s annual dinner is today as well, so I need to rush over later. I’ve received your gift from your assistant Li Si, and I’m here to deliver my gift as well.”
Qi Lei gave Yang Sheng a quick glance, and Yang Sheng swiftly handed the gift over. In reflex, Li Si went forward to take it.
“That’s very nice of you,” said Mu Yuchen as he helped Xi Xiaye to smoothen her creased sleeve.
Qi Lei shrugged and smiled. “You’re welco. Are you free to talk sowhere?” He glanced over at Xi Xiaye beside Mu Yuchen.
Mu Yuchen gave it so thought for a while before nodding. He told Xi Xiaye quietly, “I’ll be back after a while.”
“Li Si, get your Missus into the car first.”
“Yes, Master.”
Xi Xiaye gave them a doubtful glance. After so hesitation, she just nodded and went towards the car.
In just a mont, only Qi Lei and Mu Yuchen were left.
Qi Lei took out a cigarette from his pocket but did not offer Mu Yuchen one since he knew he was not going to touch it. He let out a puff casually. “Qi Qiming handed Fuhua a proposal as well. I’m sure you know about this already, don’t you?”
Mu Yuchen’s eyes darkened as he looked at Qi Lei.
“Is Fuhua confident about winning the bid? The bidding will start after the New Year. While Fuhua has very strong real estate in City Z, from what I know, Qi Qiming had an alternative plan even though he was trying to get to work with Fuhua. Are you sure Fuhua can win the bid?” Qi Lei’s tone sounded grim. He had invested everything into Fuhua and Glory World, thus this fight was important to him!
“Did you hear sothing?” Mu Yuchen’s eyes darkened as he glanced at Qi Lei.
Qi Lei took a deep breath. His eyes were clearly struggling as he shot Mu Yuchen a complicated glance before bending over and sitting down on the cold staircase. “Why do you think Shasha ca to Qi Kai? Uncle Gu sent her here. Do you understand now?”
His tone got deeper. “Qi Qiming has been visiting City B frequently. Shasha will be working in Qi Kai after the New Year. I’m not sure what position she’ll assu yet, but I’m sure she’ll be involved this. She’s changed a lot. To be honest, I have no idea which side of her is real now.”
Gu Qiwu, huh?
A cold light flashed in Mu Yuchen’s darkened eyes as he thought about that na.
“Fuhua will do its best. Don’t worry. You won’t fail even without this project. I’ll make sure your wish gets fulfilled after you’ve chosen to work with . I’d never abandon my partner. I’d just fight with them.” Mu Yuchen’s magnetic voice reached him as his dark eyes lightened slightly.
Qi Lei nodded. “I’ll hold you to your word then. That’s all from . Is there any news from Australia?”
“I’ll let you know if I find anything. The New Year is coming soon. I wish you an early Happy New Year.” Mu Yuchen then walked down the staircase.
Qi Lei watched his back in surprise as he asked, “Mu Yuchen, you’re still so calm, huh? Aren’t you worried that all your preparation with Fuhua will go to waste?”
He had always been so calm and collected. Was he really so confident about this huge project, or did he simply not care?
Mu Yuchen stopped when he heard Qi Lei’s question. He answered without turning back, “I have a baseline for myself. It doesn’t really matter to as long as this baseline isn’t breached. No matter how bad it turns out, it won’t be so bad that I’d have to starve my family. What’s so difficult about it?”
Qi Lei could not react to what he said, and Mu Yuchen already disappeared when he ca back to his senses.
He patted his own head and mumbled, “It doesn’t matter? You have no idea what’s going on! But he does make a little sense...”
