C84 (1/2)
When it came to the day of negotiation, Qiao Anxiao still felt his heart beat like a drum. Although she was well-prepared, she had no negotiating experience, so she could only brace herself and go up.
He arranged to meet with the representative of the reception team in a private room at the New Moon Hotel. It was clearly two o'clock, but Qiao Anxian's heart was a little uneasy. He was afraid that something might go wrong and that it would only be a little late.
She entered the private room early and waited for the representative of the company.
When she heard a knock on the door, she said, ”Come in,” and stood up, ready to greet him.
When the door was pushed open and she raised her head, the person she saw was actually Wen Ziqi!
”Why is it you?” Qiao Anyun's face was filled with surprise. He looked at the man in front of him, then looked behind him and saw that there was no one else. He asked, ”Mr. Wen, did you go the wrong way?”
”Wrong path?” Wen Ziqi smiled mockingly as he entered the private room and closed the door. He slowly walked towards Qiao Anxian and asked, ”Do I look like I went the wrong way?”
Qiao Anzhi's expression immediately darkened. She still hadn't forgotten what Wen Ziqi had done to her before! Being in the same room with such a man was like a lamb in a tiger's den.
Therefore, she said to Wen Ziwei, ”I'm sorry, but I was the one who reserved this private room to discuss work with others. Please leave!”
Wen Ziwei turned a deaf ear to her words. He walked to the table, pulled out a chair, and sat down. He smiled as he said, ”Talking about work? Let me guess... Are they with the representatives for the entrance examination? ”
”How do you know?” It was a secret of the company, how could he tell Wen Ziwei? Therefore, she changed her words. ”It's none of your business. Please leave!”
Wen Ziqi was about to speak when the waiter knocked on the door and brought the dishes over.
When the waiter had finished serving the dishes, Wen Ziqi picked up his chopsticks and put some fish into Qiao An's bowl. He said with a smile that was not a smile, ”The fish here are not bad. Let's have a taste first?”
Joanna did not move her chopsticks and stared at him. How could there be such a shameless person in the world? She looked at her watch. It was a quarter past two.
She hesitated for a moment before taking out her cell phone to call him. However, Wen Ziqi stopped her.
”There's no need to fight.” Wen Ziqi chuckled. ”There won't be anyone else who'd come to receive me.”
”What do you mean?” Joanna looked at him warily.
Looking at Wen Ziqi's expression as if he knew all about the matter, Qiao Anyun had a rough understanding that all of this was caused by him. If that was the case, then it seemed that the negotiations today would be a failure and he could only think of a solution later.
She picked up her bag and prepared to leave, but Wen Ziqi pulled her back and she fell into his arms.
”Let go!” Qiao Anyun angrily glared at him and threatened, ”If you don't release him, I'll call for help!”
”Alright, alright, alright …” Wen Ziqi chuckled lightly. He raised his hand in surrender and said, ”Let go of you. Calm down, darling.”
Johann straightened his clothes and was about to leave when he heard Wen Ziqi speaking behind him, ”Aren't we going to negotiate? You're leaving just like that? ”
She stopped and looked back at him in surprise. ”What do you mean?”
”Before you came here, you should have done quite a few background checks on the guest list, right? ”How could I not know that I'm the boss behind the scenes.”
”You?” Qiao Anyun completely suspected life. She had done some research before, and the boss was a man with the surname 'Huang'. How could it be him?
”I don't believe you.”
”If you don't believe me, you can leave now.”
Johann was about to leave immediately.
Wen Ziqi added, ”If you walk out of this door now, then don't even think about discussing working with the examinees.”
Seeing Wen Ziqi's calm appearance, Qiao Anxiao felt that what he said must be true … She gritted her teeth in anger, but there was nothing she could do. She had no choice but to yield and obediently sat down across from Wen Ziqi.
He had no choice but to admit that Wen Ziwei had held onto her mingmen. After all, this was her first mission back to the company. If she couldn't complete it, it would be very difficult for her to regain the trust of her superior.
”That's right.” Wen Ziqi smiled and pointed at the fish in her bowl. ”Hurry and eat. It's cold now.”
Qiao Anyun did not want to waste time with him, he just wanted to finish the contract quickly, so he said to him, ”I have no appetite. To make a long story short, what do you want?”
”What do I want?” Wen Ziqi chuckled and retorted, ”Weren't you the one who wanted to discuss cooperation? Why did you ask me instead?” If you insist, then I just want you to eat with me and talk while we eat. ”
Seeing that Qiao Anxiao was silent, Wen Ziqi continued, ”Eat well. After you're done eating, I'll sign anything you want.”
Qiao Anjiao looked at him suspiciously. She knew that Wen Ziqi was not that simple and was basically a smiling man. She had suffered several times at his hands. Previously, he had even tricked her into misunderstanding what was going on between them. If she still wasn't able to learn from his words, she would truly be too foolish.
”What do you want this time? Let me tell you, using to sow discord is no longer useful! I won't fall for your trick anymore! ”
Wen Ziqi smiled and said, ”Since you say that it's useless to sow discord between us, what's there to fear about eating a meal with me? Or is it … Are you afraid? ”
”What do I have to feel guilty about!” Qiao Anxiao retorted.
She was here to sign for the company, so she wasn't afraid of being misunderstood.
Wen Ziqi looked at the dishes on the table and couldn't help but frown. He called the waiter over and ordered a few more seafood dishes.
Qiao Anzhi frowned. She had always hated the taste of seafood. Was Wen Ziqi doing this on purpose?
