Xiao Zheng didn't even bother to look at Qiu Shou when she pretended to be resentful.
Some women's resentment was real.
And some women, like Qiu Shou, were even scarier than men. Xiao Zheng's compassion did not reach the point of overflowing. He wouldn't be fooled by her.
Seeing Xiao Zheng like this, Qiu Shou smiled mischievously. She pursed her lips and said, "Boss Xiao, do you think it's inconvenient to show your true feelings when there's a third party around?"
Look. This was Qiu Shou, cunning and tricky.
Xiao Zheng rolled his eyes and raised his glass. "Boss Qiu, cheers."
Qiu Shou gladly accepted and drank the wine in her glass.
The meal was quite harmonious. Other than the initial fight between the two women, they got along peacefully.
Of course, it was mainly Xiao Zheng who acted as the middleman.
After dinner, Xiao Zheng accompanied Qiu Shou to the living room for tea. Sophia didn't participate anymore. She gave the two some private space.
"What a virtuous woman," Qiu Shou said with narrowed eyes as she glanced at Sophia, who was going in and out of the kitchen. "Boss Xiao, you have good taste."
This was the second time Qiu Shou had praised Xiao Zheng.
Xiao Zheng took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Boss Qiu, you've given up?"
Qiu Shou didn't beat around the bush. She fiddled with her teacup and said calmly, "With Boss Xiao here, I can't do anything even if I want to."
Xiao Zheng didn't believe that Qiu Shou gave up on attacking Sophia because of him. With her skills and capital, even if Xiao Zheng went all out, he might not be able to withstand Qiu Shou's storm. Moreover, this was New York, and Xiao Zheng was fighting in an away game.
"I thank you on behalf of Sophia." Xiao Zheng was very humble.
In fact, this was Qiu Shou's plan. And it was unreasonable and unreasonable. This time, Qiu Shou gave up. Xiao Zheng should have breathed a sigh of relief and even cursed maliciously in his heart. She was shocked by him.
But that was a thought that only the young and frivolous Xiao Zheng would have. Not the current him.
True wisdom does not concern itself with momentary right and wrong. It was the overall situation.
Morality? Credit? Morals?
That was just a tool used by the rulers to maintain the stability of society. True experts only cared about the law of the jungle and believed in the true meaning of natural selection. Instead of using the so-called moral and moral principles to restrain himself.
Therefore, Xiao Zheng would not think that giving up on Autumn Harvest was a matter of course. So … he said his thanks on behalf of Sofia.
Even though Sofia might not want to thank him. Autumn Harvest might not want to hear it either.
"Boss Xiao is very magnanimous." Qiu Shou put down her teacup as a meaningful look flashed across her beautiful face. "I don't know if you will still be as tolerant as you are today after I kill everyone in the Ye Residence."
When Xiao Zheng heard this, his expression suddenly turned cold. He said in a low voice, "Boss Qiu, why are you trying to anger me?"
"Can't I?" Qiu Shou bent down slightly and stared straight at Xiao Zheng. "Just now, you also angered me."
Just now? When was that?
Xiao Zheng's expression was a little strange, but he could not remember it no matter how hard he tried.
Perhaps this was where Qiu Shou was different from other women. She would not reveal her weakness to Xiao Zheng. She did not need any pity or sympathy.
Because she was strong enough to achieve her wish. Even if she could not achieve it, she would destroy indiscriminately.
This was Qiu Shou. Cunning and strong. Unreasonable and full of thorns.
"It's late." Qiu Shou slowly stood up and said expressionlessly. "I won't disturb Boss Xiao anymore."
After that, she walked straight out of the door.
"Let me send you." Xiao Zheng quickly stood up and wanted to send Qiu Shou out.
"Boss Xiao, aren't you worried that I am luring you away? After you leave, will you send someone to kill Miss Sophia? "Qiu Shou said without turning her head. "Chun Sheng and Xia Zhang may not be a match for Boss Xiao. But the group of bodyguards in the villa can't stop them at all. "
Hearing this, Xiao Zheng's footsteps came to an abrupt halt. There was a bitter smile on his face. He opened his thin lips slightly and said, "Boss Qiu, take care. I won't send you off."
Qiu Shou sneered and slowly walked away.
Watching Qiu Shou leave in the car, Sophia's meaningful sigh rang in his ears. "This woman is really powerful."
"She is indeed powerful." Xiao Zheng nodded and said in a relaxed manner. "But no matter what, this matter has been resolved peacefully."
"Resolved peacefully?" Sophia shook her head slightly and pursed her lips. "I know that your negotiation last night was very dangerous. You might even lose your life at any time."
"It's not as serious as you think." Xiao Zheng smiled and shrugged. "Am I not fine?"
"God won't always look after you." Sophia frowned. "A hundred times of danger, you only need to be unlucky once, and you're finished."
"Then I'll only take the risk ninety-nine times." Xiao Zheng patted Sophia's shoulder lightly.
Sophia was touched by Xiao Zheng's sacrifice, but she felt a little helpless in the depths of her heart.
She knew that the current Xiao Zheng was so powerful that it would be difficult for her to be of much help. She even needed Xiao Zheng's help. For example, this time, if Xiao Zheng hadn't come forward to coordinate. Her only way out was to fight to the death with the invincible Zhao family. The result would be her retreating step by step. Her father's business would be destroyed in one day.
It wasn't that she didn't have confidence in herself, but she knew very well how terrifying the Zhao family was.
Even the top Wall Street tycoons Gandalf and Justin were in awe of them. How could a mere Sophia dare to go against them?
Xiao Zheng spent some time in the living room and then went back to his room to wash up. Although he didn't do anything big these few days, he was still quite tired after going through so much trouble.
He slept until dawn. After breakfast, Xiao Zheng went to the New York office in the name of Xin Ao's vice president for an inspection. Based on the continuous strengthening of the Phantom brand, Xin Ao had already set up offices all over the world. In some countries with strong business capabilities, they even set up branch companies. It could be said that the current Xin Ao could definitely be called a top tier multinational corporation. It gradually entered the vision of the world class capitalists.
Under the warm company of the director of the office, Xiao Zheng had lunch in a five-star hotel. Originally, he was still wondering if he should take a lunch break in the afternoon, or if he should show off his authority and hold an impromptu meeting with the leaders. To pass on the decree of the head of the overseas department.
But just as he walked out of the hotel, Xiao Zheng received a phone call.
It was from Old Lin.
Xiao Zheng smiled and answered the phone, "You rarely take the initiative to call me when I'm overseas." There was a hint of ridicule in his tone.
"Pack up and come back." Old Lin's calm voice came from the other side of the phone.
"Hmm?" Xiao Zheng's heart skipped a beat. His head was full of bad news related to his child. Instantly sweating profusely, he stuttered. "What — what's wrong?"
"It has nothing to do with me, but it has something to do with you."
