Chen Xi revealed his purpose, and he felt relieved inexplicably with a heavy heart.
She transferred the pressure to Mi Xiayao's hands.
At this moment, expectation and anxiety can still be seen vaguely in the delicate eyebrows.
Mi Xiayao felt that Chen Xi really impressed her.
She crossed her arms playfully, leaned on the wooden post in the corridor, and looked at Chen Xi slightly.
"How can Ms. Chen be 100% sure that if you say this, I will cooperate with you? What capital do you have to make me willing to cooperate with you?"
She kicked the hem of her skirt at her feet, her posture was easy-going but had a noble temperament.
The tone of his voice suddenly dropped, and he became a little cold as he questioned Chen Xi.
"Since you also know that you and I are both businessmen, then Miss Chen should know very well that I am only interested in profit, there is no equivalent transaction, and no one is willing to do a loss-making transaction."
This is equivalent to warning Chen Xi that it is best to think clearly about the next conversation before answering.
But Chen Xi obviously made a careful decision to come to the residence of his aunt with whom he was not close today to trouble Mi Xia Yao.
"My mother's family was originally a businessman. My grandfather spent some money to buy an official position, and then he reluctantly got a place in Beijing. If I have any capital to cooperate with Miss Mi... I dare to ask, my grandfather's family ran a gambling house in the early years.
, can you win Miss Mi’s heart?”
Gambling house?
Mi Xiayao was a little surprised.
She did know that Chen Xi had an awkward relationship at home, that her biological mother had passed away, and that her stepmother did not want to see her. But she never expected that Chen Xi's biological mother had such a relationship.
"Miss Chen, although I am engaged in business, in the end I am just a channel for the girl's family to make money."
She straightened her expression and tried to explain that she was not attracted to Chen Xi because his grandfather's family had experience in gambling houses.
But to be honest, Chen Xi's line has really hit the point where she has been worried recently.
When she was chatting with Song Qiao about opening up a new route last time, she didn't think about taking the dangerous path because she could make more money that way.
But then she pulled back from the brink.
The gambling house seems to be a profitable path, but in fact the later maintenance is more troublesome. Her original intention is just to make money so that she can have a more stable backing in the future.
"But the gambling house experience can be applied to countless other places. Miss Mi, you are so smart, you must be more comprehensive than I thought."
Chen Xi didn't care about Mi Xiayao's excuse at all, she just wanted to hear the final result.
Mi Xiayao fell silent at this moment.
The originally calm and inquiring gaze in his eyes gradually became deeper.
The two stood face to face, and the quiet atmosphere was particularly quiet under the corridor. At this moment, the summer wind blew slowly, and the crisp sound of the bamboo curtains could be heard.
Seeing that this atmosphere could not break the ice, Chen Xizheng was about to say something more, when suddenly there were footsteps behind him.
Mi Xiayao immediately looked over with vigilance.
As soon as she looked in her eyes, she saw a handsome and bright-looking young man, taking long strides. His round, somewhat innocent dog eyes became brighter when he saw them in their direction.
This man looked unfamiliar, and Mi Xiayao was rarely distracted to take another look at the young man.
Zhou Zegang finally found out from the backyard that there was only one girl wearing purple clothes today, her surname was Mi.
At that moment, Zhou Ze didn't think much at all, he just wanted to find the fairy girl quickly.
Sure enough, under the guidance of the maid, he actually saw the girl in the corridor.
When he really saw her, Zhou Ze felt inexplicably nervous.
The words I had originally thought of completely dissipated when I saw Mi Xiayao's delicate and charming face.
In the end, Zhou Ze could only pass by the fairy girl with an empty head.
The location where they stood on the promenade happened to be in the middle of the other side of the pond.
Chen Xi watched the young man walk over and didn't take it to heart. Instead, he concentrated on waiting for Mi Xiayao's answer.
Mi Xiayao briefly recalled the way the young man was hesitant to speak just now, and felt that this person was not a simple chance encounter.
Chen Xi seemed to notice her distraction and couldn't help but prompt, "Miss Mi?"
"This is something I didn't expect. I can't answer you so quickly right now. I'm sorry."
She quickly came to her senses, straightened her expression and expressed her thoughts to Chen Xi gracefully.
It's not that Mi Xiayao wanted to deliberately hang Chen Xi.
It's just that the business channel she conceived was too big. If she started this business channel in the capital from the beginning, there would be too little room for future development, which would not be conducive to her continued expansion.
The imminent plan that had been suppressed in her heart was about to come out again with Chen Xi's conversation today.
She needs a more prudent strategy.
"Okay," Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, but quickly expressed his understanding, "If Miss Mi figures it out, I can wait for Miss Mi's reply at any time."
The cooperation between the two people paused briefly.
Mi Xiayao was about to walk back to her seat when there was another rush of footsteps behind her, and she looked back.
The young man who had just met him turned around and walked over again, but the difference was different from the brief look he had just had.
At this moment, the young man looked a little embarrassed.
Those round eyes originally had an innocent emotion in them, but now they looked even more innocent and pitiful.
"Um... I accidentally lost my way when I first came to your residence. How can I get to the other side?"
Zhou Ze pointed to the opposite side and motioned for the two of them to look at the other side.
Chen Xi saw through the little Jiujiu in this young man's heart at a glance, she raised her eyebrows and said nothing.
However, Mi Xiayao turned around curiously and opened the bamboo curtain to take a look.
Only then did I discover that there was a pavilion opposite the pond.
He was walking so fast before that she didn't even notice.
It was just by chance that when she raised the curtain, she saw a familiar figure with perfect accuracy.
Her hand holding up the curtain stiffened slightly.
Chen Xi looked at the young man in front of him with the mentality of watching a play, and finally looked at Mi Xiayao.
“Isn’t it just a matter of swimming from here?”
Mi Xiayao opened the curtain even more, and she pointed to the opposite side in a serious manner, accurately pointing in the direction of Pei Xingyuan.
Pei Xingyuan in the pavilion opposite was still sitting in his old seat.
He had already noticed it when the two men in long skirts were having a conversation on the corridor just now.
But he didn't expect that Zhou Ze would actually find Mi Xiayao.
He sat in an easy-going posture, and even when he met Mi Xiayao's eyes, he remained indifferent to that handsome face, making the lines on his face look cold and indifferent.
The gap in the bamboo curtain became even wider, and Zhou Ze and Mi Xiayao appeared in Pei Xingyuan's sight at the same time.
His handsome eyebrows twitched fiercely for a moment.
He saw Mi Xiayao pointing her finger at him, turning her head to say something to Zhou Ze, but Zhou Ze still showed a reserved smile.
The man's originally gloomy face became even gloomier this time.
