"Okay, what I want to ask is, did Li Jing really steal the company's secrets, such as formulas?" Cao Ying asked.
Tang Xiaobao's smile faded, he hesitated and said, "Yes."
"As expected."
Cao Ying murmured: "The matter of killing the donkey was indeed so decisive."
Tang Xiaobao was silent.
He knew who Cao Ying was talking about, but from his standpoint, there were some words that he couldn't explain too clearly.
If you can pretend to be stupid, just pretend to be stupid.
But Cao Ying didn't give him a chance to pretend to be stupid and asked: "Then do you know who she is? Do you also know who is the murderer behind the scenes? Also, when I was investigating the murder case of Li Jing, I met someone Several experts have arrived, were they sent by you?"
"That's right." Tang Xiaobao admitted: "As for who is the murderer behind the scenes, I don't know, but I have some doubts in my heart. We feel that Li Jing died unjustly. Sister Shen blames herself for this and repeatedly She told me that she wanted an explanation for Li Jing, and I thought I would do it."
"I really want to say thank you this time." Cao Ying said seriously: "Because on this point, our positions are the same."
Tang Xiaobao glanced at Cao Ying and hesitated to speak.
She was a member of the Cao family after all, and it really surprised him that she said such things.
Cao Ying was indeed a smart woman, as if she could see through what Tang Xiaobao was thinking at a glance. She expressed her attitude lightly: "You are right, I am me, and the Cao family is the Cao family, at least for now."
"But you are still a member of the Cao family after all, so I think it's best for you not to get too involved in this matter, lest you be in a dilemma."
Tang Xiaobao is indeed very candid.
There was anger in Cao Ying's eyes, and she said: "But what you don't know is that Li Jing and I are as close as sisters. We have maintained this relationship since childhood. If I don't do something for her, I will never be able to feel at ease in my life." And I feel that what they have done has broken my bottom line. Shouldn’t there be some bottom line in how people behave and do things?”
Tang Xiaobao was speechless.
Regardless of whether Cao Ying really thought so, Tang Xiaobao was very touched by her attitude.
The two sat in silence, not talking for a long time.
When it comes to Li Jing, this is indeed a heavy topic.
After a long time, Cao Ying suddenly asked: "By the way, I heard that Cao Pingzhi came to see you, but you didn't see him, and even the Bawan Expressway project excluded the Cao family. Can I think that this is the case?" This is a signal that our Cao Group will definitely not be able to get the next domestic agent, right?"
This question is very direct.
Tang Xiaobao was not surprised.
He was just waiting to discuss this issue and kept waiting.
Therefore, he answered Cao Ying's question almost without hesitation.
"It is definitely impossible to be an exclusive agent. You know the profits best. This year, we will be divided into several sales areas across the country. This is the trend. I think you can understand. As for whether the Cao family will have What I want to ask about the opportunity for cooperation is, do you need it? If so, I can give you the last area, not your company." Tang Xiaobao said very directly.
Cao Ying laughed and lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.
Tang Xiaobao was a little confused.
Looking at Cao Ying, Tang Xiaobao smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Cao, why are you laughing?"
"nothing."
Cao Ying raised her head and said seriously: "I don't need this year's agent, and you don't need to give it to our company for my sake."
"Why?" Tang Xiaobao was startled.
Although he and Cao Jianguo were destined to have a falling out, if Cao Ying begged him, he would definitely have to take care of her face. This face must be given, and Shen Mengyao probably could understand it.
After all, Cao Ying is also from the Cao family. Don't these people who come from big families pay the most attention to the interests of the family? What does she mean by this?
"Because I don't want to give it to them." Cao Ying said: "And they don't deserve this cake. Another thing, maybe you don't know, I am no longer in Jiangnan City. I will go to Yanjing soon. Next , I will be responsible for Yanjing’s real estate business, and I will be responsible for the entire real estate field.”
Tang Xiaobao nodded: "The country wants to build a special zone on the outskirts of Yanjing. It's normal that you would like that place."
"You may still not know what I mean."
Tang Xiaobao groaned and looked at Cao Ying curiously.
Cao Ying said: "From now on, the Cao Group is the Cao Group and has nothing to do with me. I will firmly hold the real estate in my hands. Sooner or later, I will control the entire Cao family in my hands."
ah?
Tang Xiaobao groaned again.
This time, he was really shocked.
Is Cao Ying trying to seize power?
Is the Cao Group going to have internal strife?
"I have decided, will you help me?"
Cao Ying asked directly. She stared into Tang Xiaobao's eyes, straight and unblinking, as if she wanted to see through Tang Xiaobao's truest thoughts.
Will you help me?
Cao Ying's expression was calm, but her eyes still betrayed her.
Deep in her eyes, there was a hint of hope and a hint of uneasiness.
From her point of view, Tang Xiaobao had no reason to help her.
From Tang Xiaobao's perspective, there is also no reason to help her.
Tang Xiaobao hesitated slightly.
In fact, he thought so too.
Just looking at Cao Ying's eyes, he softened and nodded: "Okay, I will help you, as much as possible!"
Cao Ying's eye circles turned red in an instant.
She lowered her head, drank tea to hide her emotions, and then whispered.
"I promise that if I am in charge of the Cao family in the future, I will be your most loyal ally in the future journey."
Then, she added: "Even if I lose everything, I will never regret it, because without your help, I can't get what I want."
Tang Xiaobao smiled and said: "Sister Cao, you are too polite. Aren't we best friends? Do I help you just to get you to repay me later?"
Cao Ying raised her head, her face slightly red: "I remember what I said last time, asking you not to call me Sister Cao again."
"ah?"
Tang Xiaobao opened his mouth wide and was at a loss.
"That would call me old."
Cao Ying was a little shy.
After coughing, Tang Xiaobao drank tea to hide his emotions.
His little heart couldn't help but beat wildly.
Is this an indirect show of affection?
But this doesn’t fit Cao Ying’s style!
"Then what should I call you?"
"You can call me whatever you want, just don't call me sister anymore."
"Then I'd better call you Cao Ying." Tang Xiaobao didn't dare to be presumptuous.
Are you dating Cao Ying now?
Cao Ying would definitely not agree, and he would also find it strange.
Now that the two parties have reached an agreement to cooperate, we are all allies. Talking about feelings at this critical node is really a disgrace and extremely inappropriate.
Of course, Tang Xiaobao was still very happy.
If it doesn't work now, it may not work in the future. (To be continued)
