Xia Tong stood up in a panic: "You..." She didn't know when he came, or how long he stood there, let alone...
Magazine!
Xia Tong suddenly realized this damn thing, and reached out to close it and destroy the evidence. But he picked it up before her and looked through it expressionlessly. Xia Tong stood beside her, her face turned red with embarrassment.
Already.
After watching for a while, he closed his eyes, his face still showing no emotion. Without her permission, he spontaneously sat down opposite her.
A waiter came over immediately.
He confessed: "Just black coffee."
As soon as the waiter left, the air suddenly became stiff. An emotion called embarrassment spread endlessly around him. Xia Tong picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip.
Seeing her actions, Gu Haoran frowned, "Aren't you pregnant? Why are you still drinking coffee? Qin Mushi doesn't care about you?!"
After saying that, without waiting for her answer, he took the cup out of her hand with a splash.
"Uh... that's milk..." Xia Tong explained.
The man looked at the small half cup of milky white liquid and put it down nonchalantly: "I know."
Xia Tong muttered: You know a p!
The waiter brought the black coffee over, which slightly eased the awkwardness between the two of them. Gu Haoran took a sip and asked, "Are you waiting for someone?"
There was no cup to take, so Xia Tong had no choice but to put his hand on his lap and nodded: "Yes." After a pause, he said, "Waiting for sister."
"Sister?" Gu Haoran was a little confused.
"Mina, that is Xia Wanlin, she is my half-sister." Xia Tong said, while carefully checking the expression on his face.
He was a little surprised: "I've never heard you mention it before. I always thought you had the best relationship with her in the company, but I didn't expect there was such a layer in between."
"Yeah." Xia Tong responded, but the hands under her body clenched unconsciously.
If Mina wanted to solve her current troubles, the man in front of her was undoubtedly the best choice. If it hadn't been for this chance encounter in the coffee shop, she would never have thought of looking for him. But since God gave her this opportunity, she would
Don’t speak? Do you want to!
Xia Tong hesitated and hesitated.
When I was in a panic, I couldn't help but pick up the milk glass on the table. I just put it to my lips, and then I realized that the glass was dark, and a bitter smell hit my nose.
Uh...she seems...to have picked up the wrong one?!
Xia Tong put it down in panic and smiled: "I'm sorry..."
He shook his head at her politely, indicating that he didn't mind. He smiled lightly, but was distant. What he showed was an indifference that could repel people thousands of miles away. He had long lost the unreserved enthusiasm for her that he had at the beginning.
Thinking of Qin Mushi's obvious refusal last night, Xia Tong thought, just die, she has to give it a try! Otherwise, she will definitely be tossing and turning tonight.
"Gu Haoran..." she said: "Regarding the matter of my sister's termination of the contract, can you... please show her mercy and let her go. She really didn't mean to break the contract with the company, it's just..."
"Are you begging me?" He interrupted her with a smile.
Xia Tong was slightly stunned, then lowered his eyes: "Yes, I beg you, Gu Haoran, to let my sister go."
Time paused for half a second, and the surroundings became as silent as a silent film. In this short silence, she could feel that his eyes had been falling on her.
Xia Tong suddenly felt a little disgusted with his avoidance at the moment, so he simply raised his head and looked directly at him.
He smiled: "Okay."
What? The surprise came so quickly and so easily that Xia Tong almost couldn't believe her ears.
Gu Haoran repeated: "Your sister is fine. Tomorrow I will hold a press conference to show that it was nes who wanted to terminate the contract unilaterally. Not only will she not have to pay liquidated damages, but she will also get an additional compensation."
Xia Tong stared at him with wide eyes, speechless.
Gu Haoran looked at his watch and stood up: "Okay, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first..." He turned around and walked out.
"Wait..." Xia Tong called him from behind and paused: "Thank you..."
"No need." His tone was calm and gentle.

Emperor ascended to the twenty-first floor.
Qin Muzhen slammed the report in his hand to the ground: "What are you doing? It's a mess! Go back and redo it and give it to me tomorrow!"
The financial director picked up the report and walked out dejectedly.
Not far outside the door, a group of people waiting to see the joke laughed heartily.
"Am I right? The president was really weird today. He asked me to make coffee in the morning, and I made black coffee according to his usual preference. But he got so angry that he smashed the cup and said it was too bitter and asked me to
Soak it again. I added a packet of sugar and a packet of milk to him and sent it over. He smashed the cup again and said it was too sweet. You don’t know what he looked like at that time. He looked like he was about to eat someone. It scared me to death.
...." Secretary Lina complained.
"I'm not yet!" Another person said: "I just made a mistake in punctuation on the document, so I was trained by him for nearly half an hour..."
"Hey... do you think Mr. Qin was angry at home last night? Is he so angry today?"
"Maybe..." Lina laughed maliciously: "Maybe he was kicked out of the room by his wife and had nowhere to vent his lust, so..."
"No way? A man as classy as Mr. Qin will be kicked out of the room by his wife? If he really has nowhere to vent, I will be the first to dedicate myself to him and 'ravage' him."
"Come on? Mr. Qin will always like you?! Hahaha..."
"……."
***** *****
In the CEO's office, Qin Muzhen was leaning on the black leather chair behind him, rubbing his temples with his right hand irritably. However, his mind couldn't help but think of what the woman said at the dinner table last night, and how pitiful she looked when she lowered her head and begged him softly.
appearance.
Nightmarish memories...
After a long while, he finally sighed, stood up, took his suit, and walked out of the door.
Nie Sheng asked: "Master Mu, are you going home directly?"
"Let's go to NES first." He said.
***** *****
Gu Haoran never thought that this person would suddenly find him? Hearing the announcement from his secretary Anya, he smiled slightly and said, "Let him come in."
After a while, the office door opened, and there was a dark shadow approaching.
Gu Haoran stood up, stretched out his hand, and smiled gently: "Hello, Mr. Qin."
After being polite, Qin Mu decided to sit down and get down to business: "I'm here for an artist named Mina from your company." He said, "Mina's real name is Xia Wanlin, and she is my wife's sister. Recently she had an affair with Gu
It always seems to be a bit unpleasant and makes my wife very uneasy."
Gu Haoran nodded: "I know."
Qin Mujue felt a trace of unhappiness in his heart, and added: "I came here today to terminate the contract for Mina. No matter how much liquidated damages are required, I, Di Sheng, will pay it. I just hope that Mr. Gu can turn the big problem into a small one."
, shaking hands with Mina and making peace can also reassure my wife."
Gu Haoran said: "There is no need for liquidated damages." He paused and smiled: "Because today, your lady has come to see me, and I also promised her that nes will terminate the contract unilaterally, and Mina will not need any liquidated damages.
"
Hearing this, Qin Muzhen's eyes suddenly turned cold. Xia Tong had come to see him? Why didn't he know?!
After a while, he stood up with a stiff expression: "Thank you, I understand..."
