"It’s still best to have cover..." Guo Jiumin deliberately said, "So, Young Madam Huo, it’s best if you give an answer today."
Cover?
It sounds nice.
In fact, to put it bluntly, this was Guo Jiumin threatening Xia Chuyi: a decision must be made today, and it would be best to agree.
Otherwise... if she doesn’t agree to cooperate, her secret might be exposed.
"Well..." Xia Chuyi purposely put on a hesitant look and said to Guo Jiumin, "Mr. Guo, I still want to think about it before I give you an answer..."
How about intimidation?
Xia Chuyi pretended to be oblivious and didn’t take the bait.
Just as Xia Chuyi had finished speaking, before Guo Jiumin could respond, Xia Lan couldn’t wait to jump in and said, "Xia Chuyi, Mr. Guo has already given you such face, don’t be shaless and deliberately stall for ti!"
These words imdiately focused the attention of the other two in the room on Xia Lan.
Xia Chuyi frowned, looking at Xia Bufen’s posture, thinking: Such low-level incitent to discord.
Hence, Xia Chuyi looked at Xia Lan coldly and said, "What? Mr. Guo hasn’t spoken, and you have an opinion already?"
"Do you think you have a higher status than Mr. Guo?" Xia Chuyi deliberately said, "So Mr. Guo hasn’t spoken, but you can?"
These words sowhat targeted the heart, and Xia Lan’s face imdiately changed.
As for Xia Chuyi, she maintained a calm deanor, looking at Xia Lan.
Xia Lan knows how to sow discord, and so does Xia Chuyi.
Hearing Xia Chuyi’s words, Guo Jiumin indeed showed a trace of displeasure, glancing at Xia Lan.
No matter what dirty thoughts Guo Jiumin had in mind.
Xia Chuyi knew that for Guo Jiumin at this mont, she had more utility value than Xia Lan.
So, Guo Jiumin would naturally be inclined to favor Xia Chuyi over Xia Lan.
It’s just that things are so coincidental, the investnt projects Xia Lan pointed out to Guo Jiumin were inadvertently obtained by Xia Chuyi.
And Xia Lan, Xia Chuyi judged, had indeed suffered quite a bit under Guo Kai.
Therefore, Xia Lan would go to any lengths to cling to Guo Jiumin.
And after Guo Jiumin started to suspect herself, she outright revealed Xia Chuyi.
Yes, Xia Chuyi was sure in her heart that it was Xia Lan who told Guo Jiumin about her "foreknowledge."
Otherwise, Huo Shiqian had already covered her tracks, and besides a couple of coincidental investnts, who would suspect that she knew the future?
In the end, Xia Lan’s current situation is just a desperate attempt in a crisis.
To protect herself, Xia Lan told Guo Jiumin about Xia Chuyi’s situation, which led to Guo Jiumin targeting Xia Chuyi.
And to continue gaining trust, Xia Lan deliberately provoked Xia Chuyi, trying to make her angry.
Too clever for her own good, she ends up harming herself.
To soone like Guo Jiumin, whoever can bring him profit, he is willing to be tied to. Xia Chuyi fully understood this.
Seeing her own incitent fail while Xia Chuyi’s succeeded, Xia Lan bit her lip, eyes filled with resentnt.
Xia Chuyi couldn’t wait to imdiately expose Xia Chuyi’s true motives, telling Guo Jiumin that Xia Chuyi already knew the truth and would definitely not choose to cooperate!
Thinking like this in her heart, Xia Lan glared at Xia Chuyi with more hate.
And Chuyi? Calmly looking at Xia Lan.
Xia Lan wants to reveal Xia Chuyi’s stance?
Fine, then Xia Chuyi will honestly tell Guo Jiumin where her information cos from.
