Yang Fan wanted to discuss cooperation with Xu Yuan, and Xu Yuan seemed to have already known that Yang Fan came to her to discuss cooperation. Only when this topic was raised, the two officially entered the topic of the conversation.
He Yeqing then turned to Brother Min and said, "Let's go, let's not get in the way here and let them talk."
This was exactly what Brother Min wanted. Brother Min smiled, stood up, and left with He Yeqing. However, before going out, Brother Min gently patted Yang Fan on the shoulder.
In the small partition room, only Yang Fan and Xu Yuan were left.
Although the two have just mentioned the topic of cooperation, they are still wary of each other. Yang Fan is having trouble with Xu Biao, and Xu Yuan and Xu Biao are both members of the Three Snakes Society.
, it would be strange if the two of them were not wary of each other.
Yang Fan was thinking about what to say in his heart, but his hand moved. He wanted to pick up the red wine bottle on the table and add red wine to Xu Yuan's glass. Unexpectedly, his mind was not here at all, and he mistakenly took the whiskey that he and Brother Min drank.
, it’s time to pour wine into Xu Yuan’s wine glass.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Xu Yuan joked: "You want to get me drunk?"
Xu Yuan's words made Yang Fan wake up, smiled, and said: "I brought the wrong wine, I didn't mean to get you drunk." As he spoke, Yang Fan changed the wine.
"Forget it, pour me a glass of whiskey too." Xu Yuan pushed the red wine glass to one side and took a whiskey glass.
"Do you want to add ice cubes?" Yang Fan asked, and seeing Xu Yuan nodding, Yang Fan put the ice cubes into the wine glass, and poured whiskey into Xu Yuan's glass.
"I know the situation of the Three Snakes Association very well." Yang Fan thought for a while and said: "That's why I came to you to talk about cooperation. As for what we can cooperate with, you should be very clear, so you don't need to make it as clear as what I said.
?”
Xu Yuan smiled, of course she knew what Yang Fan was cooperating with her. Now the three snakes will be split up, and each branch's territory will be comparable to all Yang Fan's current territory. And Zhang Ershe is old.
It's already high. Now that he is here, it can still withstand the shock. With Zhang Ershe gone, who will take over his branch? Whether these three branches can be twisted into one, it is really difficult to say.
Therefore, whether it is Xu Yuan or Xu Biao, they have actually thought of this problem for a long time. The current situation of the Three Snakes Society is before us. If we don't take precautions for some things, it will be too late to make plans when it gets to that point.
In fact, neither Xu Yuan nor Xu Biao are very ambitious people. But the actual situation forces them to do such ambitious things. This is what people in the world have to do.
The truest portrayal of being unable to help yourself.
Xu Yuan smiled, but remained silent. Yang Fan was not in a hurry, sipping the whiskey in his glass slowly, waiting for Xu Yuan to speak, or in other words, waiting for Xu Yuan to express her stance.
Xu Yuan leaned on the back of the sofa, tilting her head and looking at Yang Fan in front of her. The admiration in her eyes was not artificial at all, and it was obvious. As early as in Yunshan, she once regarded Yang Fan as the young master under He Yeqing.
The first time she saw Yang Fan, she was attracted by this sunny man. Xu Yuan never doubted this.
Later, Xu Yuan found out that Yang Fan was not the young master under He Yeqing, and that Yang Fan later came to Tianjing, and she even helped Yang Fan. At that time, Yang Fan had not yet gained a foothold in Tianjing. But in a short time,
Yang Fan built his own world in Tianjing, and even reached a level where he could discuss cooperation with himself.
"I admire you very much." Xu Yuan narrowed her eyes slightly and said frankly, but she changed the topic.
"Thank you." Yang Fan thanked him with a smile and then raised his glass.
Xu Yuan picked up the wine glass, touched it gently with Yang Fan, and said, "Yang Fan, actually I really don't want to discuss cooperation with you." As she spoke, Xu Yuan sighed deeply.
"Why?" Yang Fan asked in confusion: "Based on our relationship, cooperation should be the best thing, right?"
"It is precisely because of our relationship that I don't want to talk about cooperation with you." Xu Yuan said quietly: "The two of us should be considered friends, and I admire you very much. I appreciate you very much."
It’s multifaceted, you should understand what I mean, right?”
"Understood." Yang Fan nodded and said, "That's why I said it's best to talk about cooperation between the two of us. Isn't it better to be friends than to talk about cooperation with strangers?"
"Aren't you looking at the problem from a different angle?" Xu Yuan tilted her head and said: "Maybe it seems like this to you, but it doesn't look like this to me. I don't want our friendship to be involved in anything related to interests.
Once interests are involved, the original simple friendship will become very complicated.
What's more, I am a woman, a woman who appreciates you very much, and if I cooperate with you, there may be two results for me."
"Of course the cooperation we are talking about has only two outcomes, success or failure." Yang Fan said, but he added in his heart: "Aren't you talking nonsense?"
Xu Yuan smiled and shook her head and said: "You misunderstood. The results I mentioned are for me personally, not what you mentioned as a cooperative plan. The results of our cooperation are naturally success or failure."
One of them."
"I almost fainted because of you." Yang Fan smiled helplessly.
"Then don't interrupt me in a hurry and listen to what I have to say." Xu Yuan gave Yang Fan a roll of her eyes and continued: "Because I admire you very much. If the two of us cooperate, there will be two things for me personally.
This result will appear. First, I will feel that you are taking advantage of my appreciation of you to achieve your goals, which will make me hate you. Second, I will get stuck in the mud, and my appreciation for you will intensify rapidly.
, the natural consequence is that I completely fell into an emotional whirlpool and couldn't extricate myself."
After saying this, Xu Yuan held her chin and looked at Yang Fan with a smile.
Yang Fan was completely speechless. He rolled his eyes and said, "Xu Yuan, are you making international jokes with me? The fact that you can speak so thoroughly shows that you are a very sensible woman! Isn't it fun to play with me in such nonsense?"
"You are wrong." Xu Yuan stretched out a finger, waved it in front of Yang Fan a few times, indicating Yang Fan's mistake, and said: "The fact that I can say this certainly proves that I am very rational. But this rationality is only for now.
It’s hard to guarantee that I will be so rational in the future!”
Yang Fan opened his mouth to say something, but Xu Yuan blocked his mouth with her index finger. Xu Yuan continued: "You don't know me well enough. Although I look very sensible, I am usually very quiet.
.But I know myself well. There is a crazy factor in my bones, but I have been suppressing it.
I often go to He Yeqing's Yiyeqing, but I have never been like those young masters. I'm afraid that once I start this, the crazy factor in my bones will no longer be suppressed, and I will go completely crazy!"
After saying this, Xu Yuan moved her fingers away and looked at Yang Fan quietly.
Yang Fan was stunned by Xu Yuan's words and didn't know what to say.
Xu Yuan picked up the wine glass in front of her and drank it all in one gulp. The ice cubes had melted a lot, and the whiskey in the glass was ice cold. Xu Yuan was shocked by the cold feeling.
Seeing that Yang Fan was silent and dumbfounded, Xu Yuan's charming eyes stretched out her tongue and touched her lips, as if she was tasting the whiskey on her lips, and she seemed to be seducing Yang Fan, saying: "Now you
You should understand that the problem is back to the original point, right?"
"I understand." Yang Fan took a long breath, pulled out a cigarette, lit it, took two deep breaths, and said: "You have said so much, if I don't understand the reason why you don't want to cooperate with me, wouldn't I be a fool?
Already?"
"You are almost like a fool." Xu Yuan joked: "When you came to Tianjing and you were not familiar with the place, why didn't you come to me earlier? At least I can help you get a foothold in Tianjing as soon as possible, so why bother to put in so much effort?"
Yang Fan smiled noncommittally and said, "Xu Yuan, since you said you admire me, you should understand that I won't do that."
"Yes, when I knew you came to Tianjing but didn't come to me, I felt very complicated." Xu Yuan said truthfully: "I was a little disappointed that you didn't come to Tianjing, but at the same time I was very relieved. I didn't appreciate you in vain.
You didn't disappoint me."
After saying this, Xu Yuan laughed and said: "This is really contradictory. Am I disappointed? Or not?"
"People are inherently contradictory." Yang Fan smiled, poured whiskey into their glasses, and said, "For your appreciation of me, I want to drink with you."
"Do you really want to get me drunk so that you can do evil things to me?" Xu Yuan smiled like a flower: "I am a widow. There are many disputes in front of widows. It is not necessarily a good thing that you keep provoking me!"
"Come on." Yang Fan smiled, ignored Xu Yuan's teasing, lightly clinked the wine glasses with Xu Yuan, raised his head and drank the whiskey in the glass, but fell into silence again.
Xu Yuan's words were actually not just telling Yang Fan why she didn't want to cooperate with him, but also pushing the choice to Yang Fan.
The choice of whether to cooperate or not lies with Yang Fan, not with Xu Yuan.
"There are too many women around me." After a long time, Yang Fan poured himself another glass of whiskey and sighed.
Xu Yuan still looked at Yang Fan with a smile. When Yang Fan said this, Xu Yuan said: "Yang Fan, you should understand that I am not forcing you to have anything with me, but I can't guarantee whether there will be many women around you in the future.
, it’s not a problem at all to me. If the two of us really cooperate, we will have more opportunities to get together in the future, instead of rarely seeing each other like we do now. Once you let the crazy factor in my bones become uncontrollable, I will
I can’t guarantee that I still have sanity.”
"I understand." Yang Fan stood up and said, "Wait for me." After saying this, Yang Fan walked out...
