After Qian Yikun said that, he glanced questioningly at Mo Fei.
How did a simple-minded person like Mo Fei understand this?
“What kind of look is that?” Mo Fei’s narrowed her gaze at Qian Yikun. Why was he showing her this look? Was this the look of someone who looked down on her?
Qian Yikun wanted to say something, but he was afraid that she would get angry, so he said something else instead. “It’s nothing. They should be almost done by now. I’ll invite them over to my side. This way, you can talk to them too.”
“Me?” Mo Fei pointed to herself uncertainly. Was he really going to push her forward in this discussion?
Qian Yikun nodded in all seriousness to prove that it was not a mistake. She was the chosen one.
Mo Fei, “…”
She was more convinced now that she was exploited by obeying that fake unwritten rule. What was the point of slacking on his work after sleeping with her?
Just as Mo Fei was about to say something, someone knocked on the office door. Qian Yikun gave a holler to let them in and the vice-captain led two big-bellied men through the door.
Mo Fei could not help but wonder if all businessmen look like this.
However, she thought about Gu Juexi’s forever twenty-eight look that could convince just about anyone when he was actually about forty years old. Could it be that the heavens were especially kind to misfits?
When the two men saw Qian Yikun, they were extremely flattering and enthusiastic. It was probably because Qian Yikun used to be a well-known figure in the business world too.
Qian Yikun asked the vice-captain to leave and looked at Mo Fei again. Mo Fei silently shifted her gaze elsewhere.
Qian Yikun let out a soft chuckle and shook hands with the two men. “Mr. Sun, Mr. Li, sorry that you have to squeeze out some time to see me.”
“No, no, it’s not a problem. I wonder if Mr. Qian—I mean, Officer Qian—wants to see us because…?” Mr. Sun was the first to speak. His gaze landed on the woman who was leaning against Qian Yikun’s table with her head lowered.
“Mr. Sun, Mr. Li, please take a seat first,” Qian Yikun invited them to sit on the sofa. Then, he turned around to look at Mo Fei before gesturing for her to go over.
Mo Fei lifted her head and looked at Qian Yikun with an insincere smile. As she walked forward, she stomped on Qian Yikun’s foot in passing.
“This is—” Mr. Li started. He looked rather familiar.
Qian Yikun followed Mo Fei and waited for her to speak. Mo Fei turned around and shot Qian Yikun a ‘just you wait’ look. Then, she turned around and looked at the other two people. “Mr. Sun, Mr. Liu—”
“It’s Mr. Li.” Qian Yikun whispered in her ear to correct her. Then, he stood up and poured the gentlemen some water.
Mo Fei, “…”
Why must he bring in so many CEOs for no damn reason?
“Mr. Sun, Mr. Li, nice to meet you. I’m Mo Fei.” Mo Fei introduced herself mechanically.
When the two heard Mo Fei’s words, their expressions changed. They were probably thinking that this was the useless CEO of Ding Enterprise.
“Hello, Miss Mo.” The two CEOs greeted her perfunctorily.
Qian Yikun poured some water and sat down beside Mo Fei. Mo Fei secretly pinched his waist and continued speaking with an unnatural smile plastered on her face, “I heard that both of you have been unhappy with what’s going on with your hired renovation pany recently. I wonder if both of you are planning to change out the renovation pany?”
The two looked at each other and instantly understood what Mo Fei meant.
“Miss Mo, to tell you the truth, Old Li and I are working with the same renovation pany. We’ve been screwed this time. Not only are the materials used subpar, but we can’t finish the project as scheduled. Now, we basically have to restart the renovation, but—” Mr. Sun took a huge detour with his words. “With what’s currently going on with Ding Enterprise, we don’t dare hand the renovation over to you.”
