On the day of breaking off the engagement, I got married to my ex-uncle
Chapter 22 A trivial matter
Huo Hangfan was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but Song Yian stared at him and immediately became speechless. Chu Xixi found it funny, and she didn't expect Song Yian to have such a side. Huo Hangfan had no choice but to leave in dismay.
After he left, Chu Xixi looked at Song Yian with a smile, "Thank you for today, otherwise he would not let it go."
Song Yian smiled and scratched the back of his head, "It's a small matter, just ask for it next time."
At this moment, Chu Xixi's phone vibrated. It was a message from Xu Yuanmo: "I didn't expect you to be so wild."
Savage? When Chu Xixi saw these two words, a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of her lips.
She could do something more extreme than this. Chu Xixi stared at the two words, her eyes gradually becoming darker.
But Song Yian suddenly said: "I didn't expect you knew Xu Yuanmo. He is the youngest senior in our school and a well-known figure in the business world. He even acquired the consortium of Country M by means of technology."
Song Yian spoke lightly, but Chu Xixi heard a hint of vigilance. She frowned and calmly changed the subject.
At this time, the mysterious man suddenly stood up and said with a smile: "It was a pleasant conversation today. Let's cooperate again next time."
"Next time?" Chu Xixi was stunned for a moment, but then she laughed, "Of course."
The mysterious man nodded and turned away. When his footsteps gradually faded away, Song Yian came over and asked, "Xixi, who is he? I see you are quite worried about him?"
"You saw it just now. He is not an ordinary person. If you meet him, be careful." Chu Xixi did not intend to tell Song Yian the identity of the mysterious man. After all, it would be safer to do so.
Song Yian was stunned for a moment, but just smiled and didn't ask any more questions.
After Song Yian left, Chu Xixi took out her cell phone and called Xu Yuanmo to ask him about the mysterious man.
"His name is Huo Hangyu, and he is a distant relative of Huo Hangfan. Huo Hangyu is a very cunning person, and the Huo family has made a lot of money because of him in the past few years. You have to be careful."
Xu Yuanmo's voice was very gentle, but Chu Xixi felt a little uncomfortable. However, she quickly suppressed this feeling and asked Xu Yuanmo: "Then how did you get to know him?"
Xu Yuanmo laughed softly, "Because he wants to poach the design talent under me."
Chu Xixi curled her lips, "Then he has the wrong idea. When will it be his turn to pick your men?"
Xu Yuanmo paused and said, "You are the boss, you have the final say."
Chu Xixi felt embarrassed when he said that, so she changed the subject and said, "Hey, they all say you are the most dangerous person in the business world, what do you think?"
"The most dangerous?" Xu Yuanmo asked back, "Why do they say that?"
"Because of the acquisition of the M country consortium."
"If they knew what you did in Country M, they wouldn't think so."
Chu Xixi was stunned for a moment, and her heart shuddered. She asked tentatively, "What extraordinary things did you do in Country M?"
Xu Yuanmo laughed softly, "No more talking, it's getting late, you should go to bed early, good night."
"Hey, don't change the subject. When we meet on a narrow road, we have to distinguish between enemies and friends..."
Chu Xixi wanted to ask more questions, but Xu Yuanmo had already hung up the phone.
The next morning, Chu Xixi came to the company's conference room and found that everyone was waiting for her.
"Xixi, this is the latest contract, take a look." Before Chu Xixi walked into the meeting room, Huo Hangyu came up to her and handed her a contract.
Chu Xixi nodded, but did not open it. Instead, she asked him, "Mr. Huo, why do you want to sign this contract?"
Huo Hangyu smiled and said, "I think this contract is not bad. It should be very beneficial to you."
Chu Xixi glanced at the contract. It turned out that Huo Hangyu was afraid that she would regret what she did last night, so he used the contract to lock her in.
"Mr. Huo, in addition to financial investment, your company will also invest in technology.
Huo Hangyu smiled and waved his hands, "You are wrong. Actually, my company is just a nominal one. There is no such thing as a shareholding."
Chu Xixi was stunned. "You mean, you won't own any shares in me, but just invest money?"
Huo Hangyu nodded, "That's right."
Huo Hangyu didn't have a good reputation in the industry, but Chu Xixi didn't expect him to be so crazy at first. Judging from the distribution of benefits in the contract, he basically gave up all the benefits that could be given, which was simply giving money to Chu Xixi.
"Why are you doing this?" No matter how smart Chu Xixi was, she didn't understand what he meant at this time.
Huo Hangyu smiled slightly, "You don't know how many years I have been preparing for this. Only by cooperating with you can I maximize my benefits."
"How much property do you have that you can afford to spend like this?" Chu Xixi couldn't help but become curious about him.
"Well... a lot." Huo Hangyu paused, but did not give her an exact number.
The more Huo Hangyu acted like this, the more uneasy she became. In order to break this uneasiness, Chu Xixi quickly picked up a pen, wrote her name, and handed it to Huo Hangyu.
Huo Hangyu got the contract, but did not sign it immediately. Instead, he asked her with a smile: "What major did you study before?"
"Architectural design." Chu Xixi answered without thinking, and then threw the pen at him, "Take the contract away quickly after signing, so you won't regret it."
Huo Hangyu was stunned for a moment, but soon he started to laugh. He picked up a pen and wrote down his name, then handed the contract to Chu Xixi and said with a smile, "Happy cooperation."
"It's a pleasure working with you." Chu Xixi nodded, but a hint of confusion appeared on her face.
According to the contract, Huo Hangyu has given up all the benefits he can get. This is not a simple transaction, but rather like...
Chu Xixi felt a little confused and didn't dare to think about it any further. She had been hurt in love before, so she must not meet a scumbag again!
Chu Xixi frowned, looking at the contract in front of her, calculating in her mind. Huo Hangyu, this smiling tiger, seemed generous on the surface, but in fact he must have other intentions.
"Mr. Huo, with your generosity, aren't you afraid that I will run away with the money?" She giggled deliberately and looked at him provocatively.
Huo Hangyu's eyes flickered, but he still kept smiling, "Ms. Chu, I believe you are not that kind of person."
Chu Xixi laughed it off. She was not as trusting as he was. Then she thought that this might be an opportunity to make good use of Huo Hangyu's investment and take her studio to the next level.
Just then, a loud noise interrupted their conversation. The door was pushed open, and Song Yian rushed in with an angry look on his face, with traces of red wine on his collar.
"Xixi, do you know that shitty client? He actually dared to attack me!" He roared, obviously drunk.
Chu Xixi hurriedly asked someone to help settle him down, while secretly wondering what move Huo Hangyu would make in this incident?
Huo Hangyu didn't seem to care much about this. He just smiled and said to Chu Xixi: "It seems that your friend needs you. Our conversation can be put on hold for the time being."
Chu Xixi nodded cautiously and watched him leave, but her vigilance remained undiminished.
Chu Xixi waited until Huo Hangyu disappeared outside the door before she walked towards Song Yian. He was already lying on the sofa, half-closed his eyes, as if he would fall asleep at any moment.
"Song Yian, what's wrong with you?" Chu Xixi helped him straighten his collar without a trace of blame in her tone.
Song Yian forced his eyelids open, "That client is Huo Hangyu's man, and he deliberately provoked me, so I had to... Forget it, let's not talk about this today."
Chu Xixi suddenly stopped, a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes. Huo Hangyu, Huo Hangyu, so you are this kind of person. She became more alert to Huo Hangyu, this person should not be underestimated.
"Song Yian, wake up, I have something to ask you." She shook Song Yian gently. The things in front of her seemed to be gradually connecting to a bigger picture.
Song Yian tried to keep himself awake, "What's the matter? Tell me quickly, I'm listening."
Chu Xixi stared at Song Yian closely, "How much do you know about Huo Hangyu's background?"
Song Yian narrowed his eyes, obviously still drunk, but he tried to concentrate, "Huo Hangyu? His affairs... um..."
His voice suddenly became low and his words stopped at the critical moment.
"Xixi, do you believe me?" Song Yian suddenly became serious, his eyes full of seriousness.
"Of course, we are friends." Chu Xixi looked at him, waiting for his answer.
Song Yian nodded and whispered, "Huo Hangyu has some traces of power. On the surface, he has no entanglement with that circle, but in fact, he has some dealings with them in private."
"Xixi, you have to be careful, this kind of people are not simple." The worry in Song Yian's eyes was beyond words.
Chu Xixi listened to him quietly, and she couldn't help but become more vigilant towards Huo Hangyu. She had already doubted this man, and now after hearing Song Yian's warning, she became even more alert.
"It is very likely that he was behind this accident. Xixi, remember, we are in the light and he is in the dark, so be careful." Song Yian said solemnly.
"I understand. Thank you for your reminder." Chu Xixi nodded, thinking to herself that she had to deal with Huo Hangyu's move well.
Song Yian yawned, "It's getting late, you should go to bed early. There's still a lot of work waiting for you tomorrow."
Chu Xixi smiled and pushed him, "Go and have a rest, don't worry about these things anymore."
After Song Yian left, Chu Xixi stood there thinking about Huo Hangyu. What was this person's purpose?
She looked at the contract and swore to herself that no matter what game Huo Hangyu wanted to play, she would not let him succeed easily.
Chu Xixi picked up the phone, quickly found Huo Hangyu's number, and decisively pressed the dial button.
The call was connected, and Huo Hangyu's voice came, "Miss Chu, what can I do for you?"
"I just want to remind you that Song Yian..." Chu Xixi spoke tentatively.
"Xixi..." Song Yian's voice suddenly sounded behind her, scaring Chu Xixi so much that her hands trembled and she almost threw the phone away.
Huo Hangyu immediately noticed her unnaturalness and asked, "Xixi, what's wrong?"
Ignoring Song Yian's shock, Chu Xixi calmly said to Huo Hangyu, "If everything is ok, I'll hang up."
Before Huo Hangyu could say anything, Chu Xixi had already hung up the phone, threw the phone aside, and turned to look at Song Yian.
"I just want to remind you that Song Yian..." Before she could finish her words, her cell phone rang again, and it was Huo Hangyu's number.
Chu Xixi glanced at him and said, "Looks like you'll have to talk about it later."
Song Yian seemed a little embarrassed, "Um...Xixi..."
"It's okay," Chu Xixi waved her hand cheerfully, "Song Yian, wait for me to answer the phone."
"Xixi, it's so late..." Huo Hangyu's voice sounded a little hesitant.
"Huo Hangyu, I think we need to talk." Chu Xixi spoke calmly, already having a plan in mind.
Huo Hangyu's tone suddenly became serious, "Xixi, who are you talking to?"
