"I didn't realize you were so good at comforting people."
Meng Jingwei gave a bitter smile, turned to look out the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the vast city of Lan, lost in thought.
This battle, they could only succeed, not fail.
Suddenly, Meng Jingwei's phone rang again.
The melodious ringtone broke the silence of the office, sounding particularly jarring.
She picked up her phone and looked down. It was Lan Shu calling.
"Lan Shu?" Meng Jingwei answered the phone.
On the other end, Lan Shu sighed, "Qing Si Huai hasn't met with me these past few days. I don't know why, but I feel a bit unwilling."
"Unwilling?"
Meng Jingwei's heart skipped a beat, her heart tightening inexplicably. "Have you fallen for him?"
Lan Shu had amnesia now. If she were to rekindle her relationship with Qing Si Huai, Meng Jingwei would truly feel that fate was playing tricks on people.
"I..." Lan Shu shook her head. "It's not exactly liking him, but there's a hidden sense of unwillingness. It's like wanting to stand by his side, only to personally push him into the abyss."
Because Qing Mu Ye's company was suddenly dealt a heavy blow by the Tang family, Qing Si Huai no longer needed to approach Lan Shu or use her to plot against Qing Mu Ye. Therefore, Lan Shu's value no longer existed.
Qing Si Huai had previously pursued Lan Shu aggressively, but ever since Qing Mu Ye's company was about to be auctioned, Qing Si Huai had clearly become distant towards her.
The intention of manipulation was obvious.
Lan Shu always felt a sense of unwillingness.
"Hoo..." Meng Jingwei breathed a sigh of relief, almost scared to death.
Her fingers rested on the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window in front of her, her slender and long fingers gently tapping on the glass. "You will get what you want to see."
"I hope so," Lan Shu sighed and chatted with Meng Jingwei for a few more sentences before hanging up.
...
Song Yu Group.
Qing Si Huai was sitting in the lounge area of his office, opposite him was Aloro Cogswell, the internet tycoon from Country C who had come to discuss cooperation last time.
"The auction for Zhuo Rui Technology is in two days. I look forward to our cooperation." Qing Si Huai closed the documents they had just signed, saying with a smile.
Aloro Cogswell stood up, and they shook hands amicably. "Long-term cooperation, mutual benefit, and win-win."
"Okay, okay, mutual benefit and win-win." Qing Si Huai smiled and said, "I'll host tonight. Let's have dinner together at the Vienna Hotel to celebrate our cooperation."
"Yes, see you tonight." Aloro Cogswell readily accepted the invitation.
After chatting for a while, Qing Si Huai saw Aloro Cogswell out, and his assistant Xu Jiang hurried into the office. "President Qing, we just received news that Qing Mu Ye seems to have left Lan Cheng."
At this moment, Qing Si Huai was sitting on the sofa in the lounge area, looking at the cooperation agreement in his hand with a beaming face, filled with joy.
Being able to cooperate with the Country C tycoon Aloro Cogswell was undoubtedly icing on the cake and a powerful boost for him. His mood was naturally excellent.
Upon hearing Xu Jiang's news, Qing Si Huai slowly closed the document, his brows furrowed slightly, and he pondered for a moment. "Left Lan Cheng? Tsk, what does it mean for him to leave Lan Cheng now?"
Qing Si Huai was somewhat unable to figure out Qing Mu Ye's movements.
Previously, in the Hidden Clan, Qing Si Huai had personally witnessed Qing Mu Ye overthrowing Anthony and safely leaving the Hidden Clan with Meng Jingwei.
After that, Qing Si Huai dared not be arrogant towards Qing Mu Ye openly, because he knew that Qing Mu Ye had a hidden force.
However, he did not know if it was a force secretly cultivated by Qing Mu Ye.
Now, at the time of Zhuo Rui Group's auction, he had left Lan Cheng. What was his intention?
"Did you find out where he went?" he asked, frowning.
Xu Jiang looked up at him. "We found out he went to Country C, but our people lost track of him after tracking him there."
