Chapter 319: Perfunctory

Could it be that this woman has had a change of heart? But even if she did, what could she do? This contract and that data are so important, and now they're all in my hands.

To be honest, he suddenly felt that this woman seemed to have lost her usefulness.

Oh, what is it? Speak.

I've never asked you what you want to do with these data.

Hehe, of course it's for business.

Because of business? Have you ever thought about destroying the Minghui Group?

Do you think our company has the ability to swallow their Minghui Group? We simply can't; we're just creating some competition in upcoming business projects.

Oh, if that's the case, I feel a bit better; after all, his family has been decent to me, and the only one who's sorry to me is Xiao Yunzhe.

Don't worry, I know what to do; alright, I have some urgent matters at my company, I need to hurry back to handle them.

What? Haven't you already taken leave?

Honey, I did take leave, but I can't stay here all day; I've already been with you for over two hours, nearly three. At the very least, I need to go back to the company to brief them. Tonight, I promise you, okay?

Tonight? I have no time, and besides, we can't meet too frequently, or it will surely draw attention.

Hmm, if you didn't say that, I'd really need reminding; indeed, we can't meet frequently. How about we keep things quiet for two days?

Okay, I understand, but I still can't bear to part with you.

Geng Jing Shu leaned into Zhao Yixuan's embrace once again.

Hehe, honey, I certainly can't bear to part with you either, but we're doing this for a better future together, so we must endure this, okay?

Do you know? I really don't want him to touch me now, and my mind is full of you.

After he said that, Zhao Yixuan suddenly felt his head swelling.

He knew some women are best not to get involved with; once you do, it's not easy to shake them off.

At that moment, his phone suddenly rang; he picked it up and saw it was just a nuisance call.

But Zhao Yixuan, who never answers nuisance calls, actually answered it for the first time.

Hello, General Manager Zhao, okay, I'm outside now, alright, I know, I'll head back right away.

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Afterwards, Zhao Yixuan looked at Geng Jing Shu sitting here with a guilty expression.

What's wrong? Is there something at the company?

Yes, General Manager Zhao, there was an urgent matter on the call just now; I must return immediately, or it really won't work.

Alright, go.

And you? Aren't you leaving?

Me? If I go back now, I'd be alone, which is pointless, so I want to rest here a while, then check out.

Okay, you should head back early too; remember to eat more at night, and if anything comes up, contact me promptly. That's it, dear.

Before leaving, he kissed Geng Jing Shu's forehead lightly, as a routine gesture, then hurried out of the Bin Guan room.

Just after stepping out, Zhao Yixuan suddenly felt much lighter.

Sigh, being with that woman certainly brought some passion, but passion is fleeting; once it faded, he felt mostly just trouble.

After leaving the Bin Guan, he took out his phone and directly called General Manager Zhao.

General Manager Zhao, what's going on? Didn't I tell you before to call me at an appropriate time?

Hehe, sorry, I had a sudden video conference here, so I forgot; have you already come out?

Indeed, he got the data over to me, and I checked—there's a lot of confidential stuff; it should be very helpful for us.

Good, I wasn't wrong about this woman; it seems she really did accomplish all of this.

General Manager Zhao, I now have all these data; what about us?

Don't worry, I promise there'll be no problem; first bring over the data, then I'll verify it—I believe it'll be usable later.

Sigh, if that's the case, then I won't meet that woman again in the future?

What? Not meet? What do you mean?

It means nothing; I just feel that being with him no longer has that earlier passion—passion is fleeting, so it's not really meaningful.

You, you can't do that; I tell you, if she really notices something now, then our affair might not be able to continue smoothly.

What? What difference does it make? I've already gotten what I needed; now can he still control all of this?

That's not certain; before we finalize this, you'll definitely have to stay with that woman, or else we might lose all our previous effort.

How? Still have to be with him?

Exactly, you have no other choice; besides, didn't you already say that you and he are lovers? Why get tangled up in all this?

But, but regarding the feelings between men and women—forget it, I'll tell you, you might not understand; okay, I'll endure a bit longer—tell me, roughly how long will this take?

How long it takes depends on the progress of the Minghui Group; if they acquire Xing Ya Company first, then we, the yellow sparrow catching the cicada, will naturally be the mantis behind.

But, given their company's current huge predicament, I estimate the acquisition won't be that simple either.
