The daughter of a general is so cool in the novel about a wealthy family

Yuan Shu's expression remained unchanged, "It's different now. Feelings are temporary. Three months is enough to wear out my passion. No one is perfect, so this is not something to be ashamed of."

Shi Xiao saw that Yuan Shu looked calm when she spoke and originally wanted to tease her, but after hearing what she said, he seemed petty instead and was a little embarrassed for a moment.

Shi Xiao stroked the tip of his nose with his index finger, and instead of continuing the topic, he asked, "You've talked so much about me, why don't you tell me what value you can bring to me?"

Yuan Shu chuckled, but there was no disdain in her expression. This was exactly what she expected.

As expected, businessmen all value profits. In negotiations, the most important thing is what you can get. If Yuan Shu wants to live a carefree life like before Shi Xiao came back, he naturally has to contribute.

There is no doubt about it.

Yuan Shu is not wearing any makeup today. Her natural features, delicate facial features, and casual smile give her a sense of classical beauty.

"Naturally beautiful" was the first description that came to Shi Xiao's mind. Yuan Shu was like an uncut piece of jade, radiating a confident glow.

Yuan Shu continued, "You left the Shi family and went to Africa. You disappeared too suddenly and for too long. During this time, whether intentionally or unintentionally, I did attend many activities on behalf of the Shi family as Mrs. Shi. So you need me now. You can't divorce me in a short time. This is the value I bring to you."

Yuan Shu glanced at Shi Xiao indifferently. She knew that Shi Xiao must have heard what she said and was considering what to do next.

What Yuan Shu meant was that Shi Xiao needed Yuan Shu now, not that Yuan Shu wanted to continue staying in the Shi family. The one who had the advantage was Yuan Shu, not Shi Xiao, so he had to agree to Yuan Shu's request.

Yuan Shu paused again. Since he had already used both soft and hard tactics, he naturally could not put too much pressure on him. He had to leave Shi Xiao a way to survive.

"Of course, I also need the help of the Shi family. Yushu Buyi has just transformed and is in its starting stage. I need financial support and the Shi family as a backer to make customers more confident in Yushu Buyi's strength. In addition, if we get along well, it will also reduce your worries. You don't have to worry that I will betray you, and I don't need you to trust me. We just walk back to back."

There is a formation in the military camp, which is used for defense. Facing enemies from all directions, no one dares to show their back, so they can only turn their backs to their teammates. Facing the enemies around them, they are not the people they trust the most, so they cannot turn their backs to their teammates. Turning their backs to their teammates means that if one side dies, the other side will not survive.

To put it simply, it means sharing the joys and sorrows. Both sides want to maximize their own interests, so they have to protect the people behind them.

This statement is the most appropriate to describe the relationship between Yuan Shu and Shi Xiao.

Shi Xiao found this sentence very interesting. It was the first time he heard such a metaphor, and it was very vivid.

He has a back-to-back relationship with many people, but others would not describe this relationship in this way. They would rather use the word cooperation or friendship to describe this relationship.

So Yuan Shu's frank words were refreshing, and made Shi Xiao want to believe the woman in front of him.

He looked at her and felt like he was looking for a path in the forest, and occasionally there would be fog and he couldn't find his way back.

Shi Xiao felt a little relieved. Whether it was for his self-esteem or for the sake of his family, he was glad that the person he married was Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu observed Shi Xiao's face carefully, not missing any movement. Even the flicker in Shi Xiao's eyes was successfully captured by Shi Xiao. Yuan Shu knew that his negotiation was about to succeed.

Yuan Shu was once called the "Iron Lady" by people in the military camp, not only because she was good at urging people to do more, but also because she was very good at negotiation, especially psychological warfare. Whether it was the enemy or her own subordinates, she could accurately grasp the other party's thoughts.

Yuan Shu continued, "Of course, we are only collaborating for a short time. When the Shi family is stable and Yushu Buyi is on the right track, we will slowly distance ourselves from each other. Then the Shi family can announce our divorce to the public."

Shi Xiao couldn't help but admire the woman in front of him. He thought he was very cautious and didn't let his emotions affect him, but the woman in front of him was actually on the same level as him...

Yuan Shu explained the pros and cons of the matter. He did not show his greedy side as Shi Xiao had expected, nor did he try to gain more benefits from the Shi family. Instead, he drew a line and completely withdrew himself from this partnership.

In just a few words, Yuan Shu placed the two of them on an equal footing, as if they were the two ends of a scale, without any deviation, which resulted in such a symmetrical balance.

Yuan Shu did not give Shi Xiao any choice. Whether Shi Xiao advanced or retreated, it would affect their cooperation.

If Shi Xiao takes another risk and wants Yuan Shu to put forward more conditions, the result will inevitably be Yuan Shu's withdrawal, and all the negative impact of the divorce will be returned to the Shi Group. By then, the stock price will fall, and the Shi Group may not be able to get back on its feet so quickly.

With Shi Xiao's personality, he will never give in and will definitely tear his face off. In the end, the inglorious divorce result will be the same as before.

So he had only one choice, which was to accept Yuan Shu's advice.

What kind of woman is Yuan Shu? This woman who is equally powerful as himself made Shi Xiao couldn't help but become interested.

Over the years, he had never seen anyone who could guide him in negotiations and put him in such a passive situation, but Yuan Shu did it.

At the beginning of the negotiations, Yuan Shu put himself in a weak position, while Shi Xiao put on his combat uniform, and the two seemed to be standing at opposite ends of the ring.

Shi Xiao chuckled, revealing a row of white teeth. He hadn't been so happy in a long time. He admired this equally powerful opponent and was also surprised that he finally met someone with the same interests as him.

Shi Xiao suddenly couldn't bear to get a divorce and had a strong desire to keep this woman by his side at all costs. Then it would not be so easy for Yuan Shu to leave.

Yuan Shu didn't say anything else, but looked at Shi Xiao seriously. No matter what the current situation was, there was no need for her to say anything else. She was already very confident about the result.

Shi Xiao slowly sat up straight and looked into Yuan Shu's eyes to show his respect for him. "Deal."

Yuan Shu still had no expression on his face, as if he had expected this scene. He smiled, put down his legs, straightened his back and said, "It's a pleasure to work with you."

At this time, Zhao Mian had just bought lunch and brought it up. Two thermos bags full of food were placed on the table. Soon, the table was full.

Zhao Mian has always been very considerate. When buying lunch, he would buy a combination of signature dishes from eight major cuisines, so that no matter what tastes the two of them have, they can enjoy them.

Yuan Shu is not picky about dishes, but he is very picky about the quality of ingredients. Whether it is meat or vegetables, he must eat the freshest ones.

She looked carefully at the dishes on the table. They were all delicious and tasty. Except for the duck meat in the duck vermicelli soup which was the wrong color, every dish seemed to be cooked with the best ingredients.

Yuan Shu picked up a piece of braised beef brisket and placed it on the rice. She waited until the braised beef absorbed the soup before putting it into her mouth. The beef was stewed just right and the flavor had completely penetrated into every texture of the meat. In addition to the taste of the meat itself, there was also the taste of the seasoning. It was very delicious.

Seeing Yuan Shu eating so happily, Shi Xiao suddenly felt very hungry. He also picked up a piece of braised beef brisket and chewed it carefully.

Shi Xiao couldn't help but observe Yuan Shu's expression. If she thought the dish was delicious, Shi Xiao would eat it too. The meal took half an hour.

Neither of them spoke during the meal, but the atmosphere was harmonious.

This was the first time that Shi Xiao felt at home, and it was a warm feeling to have someone by his side.

After dinner, Zhao Mian came in and cleaned the table. After Zhao Mian cleaned up the room and left, Yuan Shu and Shi Xiao were the only ones left in the office. Only then did Yuan Shu speak again.

But since they have already discussed the serious business, there is no need to be so serious, and Yuan Shu's tone is also relaxed.

"I remember that after we got married, I lived in the villa and you lived in the ancestral house. Later, because I held a cocktail party in the ancestral house, I moved there. Since we both agreed, I will pack up and move back to the villa in the afternoon."

Shi Xiao wiped his hands with a tissue, then crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the trash can, saying, "Let's move there this afternoon. The ancestral house is quite remote, and it's not convenient to commute to get off work every day. How about we live in the villa together?"
