Gan Lanlan covered her mouth and looked at Gan Changfeng with wide eyes.
"I, I didn't say anything, didn't... didn't say anything!"
Gan Lanlan stutters when he lies. Gan Changfeng, who is my father, knows this very well.
"This, this, she, she—" Gan Changfeng stuttered as soon as he opened his mouth.
You can't blame him for losing his composure, it's just that the information Gan Lanlan unintentionally revealed just now is too shocking!
In the imperial capital, everyone didn't know that Zhan Qi Pei married a country girl, but who knew that the country girl Zhan Qi Pei married turned out to be Professor Qiao, an agricultural tycoon who had just won the National Science and Technology Award!
"Drink-" Gan Changfeng took a deep breath and continued to be in a state of surprise.
Gan Lanlan put down the hand covering her mouth, then lowered her head, turned around and left dejectedly.
"Where are you going?" Gan Changfeng quickly called out to Gan Lanlan.
"Go tell her that I didn't help her." Gan Lanlan's voice became quieter as he spoke, and his head lowered lower and lower, as if he was ashamed to see Qiao Jing.
"Who said you didn't help her? Go and tell her that our Gan family has agreed to cooperate with the Zhan family."
Hearing Gan Changfeng's words, Gan Lanlan suddenly raised his head and looked at Gan Changfeng with surprise and disbelief.
"No, no, Dad, didn't you disagree just now?"
"Just now was just now, and now is now."
He didn't know Qiao Jing's identity just now, but now that he knew it, how could he not betray Professor Qiao's reputation?
"But, isn't it hard for you to talk to the Qian family?" Gan Lanlan tilted her head and looked at Gan Changfeng.
"Go, go, go! Tell her quickly and don't keep her waiting. The only way I can refuse is from the Qian family." Gan Changfeng pushed Gan Lanlan as he spoke, and finally watched Gan Lanlan walk to Qiao Jing with a smile.
Gan Lanlan scratched the back of his head and looked at Qiao Jing, "My dad agreed."
"Thank you." Qiao Jing smiled at Gan Lanlan to express her gratitude.
"No, I -" Gan Lanlan said hesitantly, looking like he had a headache.
"What's wrong?" Qiao Jing asked confused.
Gan Lanlan grabbed her hair and lowered her head, like a child who had made a mistake.
"I, I just said, I seemed to have spilled the beans."
After Gan Lanlan said this, she didn't dare to look up at Qiao Jing, for fear that she would see traces of disappointment on her idol's face.
If he really wanted to see it, he was afraid that his young heart would not be able to bear it.
Qiao Jing frowned slightly, "You mean, my identity?"
Gan Lanlan lowered his head and nodded, "Professor Qiao, I didn't mean it. I, I just let it slip when I was anxious. I -"
"Is that why your dad agreed?" Qiao Jing interrupted Gan Lanlan and said.
"probably."
"It doesn't matter, as long as your dad doesn't tell anyone anymore." In fact, Qiao Jing had this plan originally. If Gan Lanlan failed to negotiate, then she would use her connections.
She never likes to owe favors, and Zhan Qi Pei is not an ordinary person. He usually does not need help from others, so it is difficult for her to return favors.
It's rare for her to come across such an opportunity, so she will try her best to help him win this project.
"Professor Qiao, aren't you hungry for me?" Gan Lanlan raised her head and looked at Qiao Jing.
"If you don't tell me, your dad won't agree, right?" Qiao Jing asked without answering.
Gan Lanlan opened her mouth, and this reaction was tantamount to acknowledging what Qiao Jing said.
"So even if you don't spill the beans, I will talk to your dad personally."
Hearing what Qiao Jing said, Gan Lanlan was extremely moved.
In Gan Lanlan's view, the main purpose of Qiao Jing's words was to prevent him from blaming himself.
Professor Qiao, what a great person! He is the kindest and most considerate person in the world!
He decided that he would be a fan of her for the rest of his life!
"She's back." Lu Zijiao raised his chin at Zhan Qi Pei.
Zhan Qipei also saw it. To be precise, his eyes never shifted from Qiao Jing.
"How's it going? Success?" Lu Zijiao said this with a bit of ridicule, but of course, there was no malicious ridicule.
"Yeah." Qiao Jing nodded.
"What?!" Lu Zijiao was so shocked that his mouth opened so wide that his jaw almost dropped, "You, are you kidding me?"
Yes! She must be joking. Zhan Qi Pei, a big shot who has experienced business wars for a long time, has not reached an agreement. Qiao Jing seems to have said nothing to Gan Changfeng, but only said a few words to Gan Lanlan, and this is it?
"Is the deal really concluded?" Zhan Qi Peilin looked at Qiao Jing with his deep black eyes and asked.
He had been living alone with Qiao Jing for some time, and he knew her to some extent, and knew that she would not joke about this kind of thing.
"It's done." Qiao Jing replied.
"No, no, it's really done? How did it happen?" Lu Zijiao also saw that Qiao Jing was not joking.
Qiao Jing explained calmly: "Some time ago, Gan Qiqi, the daughter of the Gan family, was almost kidnapped. I saved her."
"What else is there? What a coincidence, isn't it?" Lu Zijiao understood. It turned out that it was because of this that Gan Changfeng agreed to cooperate with the Zhan Group.
Zhan Qipei continued to look at Qiao Jing carefully with his wise eyes narrowed. He didn't know why, although there were no flaws in what Qiao Jing said, he just felt that things were not that simple.
He and Gan Changfeng are both the top CEOs of the company. If it were him, if he owed Qiao Jing's kindness, he would repay it in other ways instead of rejecting his business partner who has worked with him for many years.
Gan Changfeng actually did this... there might be some unknown secret in it.
"You helped me this time. What do you want? I will try my best to satisfy you."
"No, I'm just returning the favor."
Qiao Jing's words made Zhan Qi Pei feel a little disappointed, "You mean the favor I saved last time?"
Without waiting for Qiao Jing to answer, Zhan Qi Pei continued: "You have already repaid this favor."
At that time, Zhan Qi Pei's request was to let Qiao Jing build a large table.
"Not only that, I also heard about the Jiang family."
Qiao Jing has already made his words clear. If Zhan Qi Pei continues to deny that the Jiang family's affairs have nothing to do with him, he will be treating Qiao Jing as a fool.
Qiao Jing is not a fool. On the contrary, his IQ is so high that sometimes it makes him overwhelmed, so there is no need to deny it.
Qian Haisheng came to Qian Yuang's side and said in a reprimanding tone: "I reminded you yesterday, telling you to be careful and not to overdo it. It's better now! You have directly offended the Zhan family!"
Qian Yuang was so angry that he had nowhere to vent his anger, "I didn't know that Zhan Qi Pei came over suddenly, and that Gan Lanlan actually got rough with me, pulling my collar in front of such people, embarrassing me!
"
"That's enough, Gan Changfeng is here." Qian Haisheng stopped Qian Yu'ang from speaking, and then went to greet Gan Changfeng who was walking over.
"Mr. Gan, congratulations. Your son is more promising than mine. He is lucky enough to be admitted to Professor Qiao's research institute."
After Gan Changfeng heard the words "Professor Qiao", he subconsciously glanced in the direction of Qiao Jing. When he looked away, he frowned and looked at Qian Yuang.
Qian Haisheng noticed Gan Changfeng's eyes and thought it was because of the trouble between Qian Yuang and Gan Lanlan. He said with a hypocritical smile: "My son is not very sensible and speaks freely. Fortunately, the matter did not become a big deal."
Fortunately, things didn't get too serious?
Gan Changfeng twitched his beard. Your son has teased Professor Qiao. Are you telling him that the matter is not serious?
Gan Changfeng's face turned cold, "Mr. Qian, it's not me. Your son is not young anymore, so he should be a little more careful. If he offends someone he shouldn't have offended, I'm afraid it will be too late to regret."
Although Professor Qiao is not in business, he can't help but have such great influence!
If the Qian family really wants to go against Professor Qiao, then almost most of the wealthy families will side with Qiao Jing and isolate the Qian family. By then, the Qian family will only die.
"Yes, Mr. Gan, you are right." Qian Haisheng responded repeatedly with a smile, his narrowed eyes filled with a cold luster.
"Actually, I came to you to discuss cooperation with you." Gan Changfeng stopped beating around the bush and went straight to the point.
"I think this project will be the same as in previous years. The rules remain unchanged, 50-50." Qian Haisheng said.
Gan Changfeng was silent for two seconds and then said, "Sorry, our Gan family plans to cooperate with the Zhan family on this project."
