Linxiu Company, the name which has never been heard of before, spreads around the business circle in a day. Except for Ko’ company, almost all the major companies have received their olive branches. The emergence of Linxiu company is just like a refreshing rain after a long drought in this special period of financial crisis. Gu Yi gathers the key personnel of all departments to discuss the unexpected business opportunity.
Most people, led by Zhang Le, agree. Only taking a risk can rescue the company according to the current situation. However, there are still very few people who do not agree with it for the large risk which may entail double cost. Both sides stick to their own views. After thinking, Gu Yi makes the final decision to accept the cooperation put forward by Linxiu company.
“The planning department shall draw up a plan and hand to me before tomorrow.” Looking at Zhang Le, Gu Yi asks, “no problem, right?” Zhang Le, as usual, has no expression and nods as an answer, and the wordless appearance makes him look modest. Lin Miaoxin gets in touch with Linxiu company, and they will send over the relevant personnel in charge in the afternoon. Gu Yi was still curious before entering the conference room. The collected data shows that the size of Linxiu company is totally inconsistent with what it does and it is just a small company registered before two days.
The Secretary pushes the door of the meeting room for Gu Yi. The two men in suits on one side of the meeting table immediately stand up, and the left one who wears a pair of gold rimmed glasses shows a gentle smile. “Mr. Gu, I’ve long been looking forward to meeting you.” He says as he hands a business card to Gu Yi. Receiving the card, Gu Yi politely glances at it to have a general knowledge of his identity: Li Zeqi, general manager of Linxiu Company.
“Nice to meet you, Mr. Li” After briefly shaking hands, they sit down on both sides of the table. Although Li Zeqi is totally an image of the business elite, the two dimples on his face soften him a lot. He even looks like smiling when he has no expression. Li Zeqi puts a cooperation plan in front of Gu Yi and elaborates on it carefully. Frowning slightly and listening very carefully,Gu Yi has to admit that the plan is perfect which has no flaws at all and it is not like a plan made by a new company.
Closing the prospectus, Gu Yi looks at Li Zeqi with great interest, and expresses his appreciation straightforwardly. “I can only say that this plan is really perfect, but I want to know why you choose Gu’s Company, because you know the leading company like Ko’s is far stronger than our company. If you cooperate with Ko’s Company, you will surely get more benefits.”
Li Zeqi’s expression remains as if he has known that Gu Yi would ask such a question and he replies calmly, “as you said, we are a new company, and it is precisely because of this that we choose to cooperate with a company with more potentials, such as Gu’s, rather than being oppressed by Ko’s all the time.” Gu Yi feels no doubt about this reason. After all, what Li Zeqi said is true.
It seems that Li Zeqi has known Gu’s attitude towards Ko’s, and suddenly he shows a smile of unknown meaning, but there is no softness in his voice, “Besides, the enemy of the enemy is a friend. I think it’s not only out company, even your company doesn’t want to be lower than Ko’s all the time, right?” That’s the point! Especially after re-encountering Yu Fei, this kind of feeling comes over Gu Yi more and more strongly, and no one is willing to be suppressed by his rival.
As a result, Gu yi immediately makes up his mind to cooperate with Lin xiu Company. “Congratulations, Mr. Gu.” Li Zeqi stands up to shake hands with Gu Yi and the eyes behind the lenses are elusive. Getting the news from Li Zeqi that Gu Yi has agreed, Tan Lin shakes the wine glass and sneers coldly.
“I knew that he would agree, all is in my control.” Tan Lin takes a sip of red wine and says to herself. At the moment, no one but Tan Lin knows that the local business development will change dramatically because of her.
The next day, in Ko’s manor.
Duan Qingfeng comes to check Ko Chen’s physical condition. A cold look shoots at him as soon as he enters the bedroom. He smiles helplessly and knows who it is without looking. He can understand what the sight means within a second as his old friend. “You just have been in bed for three days, don’t look at me like that.” Duan Qingfeng pushes the car with various medical devices to Ko Chen’s bedside, shrugging his shoulders helplessly.
Without replying, Ko Chen just stares at him. At first Duan Qingfeng can pretend not to see it and normally prepares to check it. However, he can’t bear the blazing eyes staying on him for a long while. Putting down his instruments, Duan Qingfeng turns to face Ko Chen, shows a wry smile, and begs jokingly, “spare me, it’s my fault, ok? But what I did is all for your health.”
How can Ko Chen not know this? It’s just because such things as the company’s business, Tan Lin’s return and Yu Fei are intertwined, but he has been lying in bed doing nothing, and the deep sense of powerlessness overwhelms him. A shade of disappointment flashes over Ko Chen’s face, which is caught by Duan QingFeng. Dispersing his joking mind, Duan Qingfeng looks at him seriously and says, “Ko Chen, if you really love Yu Fei, you’d better tell her about your condition.”
As a bystander, he witnesses clearly that how Ko Chen pushes Yu Fei away step by step, and the result is that both of them are deeply in pain. Ko Chen shakes his head and says firmly, “it is impossible. What could be changed? To let her watch me die? ” Duan Qingfeng opens his mouth but says nothing. Although it’s unlucky for Ko Chen to say so, according to the current situation, life or death each accounts for 50% probability. No one knows what tomorrow will be like.
They look at each other without a word. At this moment, Uncle Zhang knocks on the door and walks in. “Mr. Gu, there is a guest for you.” Uncle Zhang looks embarrassed. Noticing that, Ko Chen asks directly, “who it is?” With his words, a charming voice comes in from outside, “brother Chen, it’s me.”
Tan Lin ties a ponytail over her hair and appears at the door in a casual suit, smiling at Ko Chen, directly ignoring Duan Qingfeng beside the bed. Ko Chen is surprised that he asked Uncle Zhang to investigate Tan Lin the day before yesterday, but she takes the initiative to visit him today. He decides to stay calm and wait to see what the purpose of Tan Lin’s return is.
