After Wu Yifa left, Xiao Yunhai and the other two were about to get into the car and leave.
Vanessa Bessie suddenly ran out and said, "Mr. Xiao, can I treat you to a meal?"
Xiao Yunhai was stunned and said, "Young Miss Bei Xi, you wouldn't be thinking of creating some scandal for me, right?"
Vanessa Bessie shook her head and said, "Of course not. Moreover, Miss Zhao is by your side now. What are you worried about? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Alright. Christy, go back first. Finish that as soon as possible. I'll return to the company soon. Honey, let's go together. "
Zhao Wanqing nodded.
They came to an Italian restaurant. Xiao Yunhai went to the washroom while Zhao Wanqing and Vanessa Bessie found a seat and sat down.
Looking at the beautiful Zhao Wanqing, Vanessa Bessie realized that her aura was not inferior to hers. She was also dignified and elegant. If she were a man, she would probably fall in love with her uncontrollably.
"Miss Zhao, you're much prettier than in the movies. Do you know how many women in the world are jealous of you? "Vanessa Bessie sighed.
Zhao Wanqing said calmly, "Of course. His female fans all dream of marrying him. Unfortunately, they're too late. Miss Bessie, since entering the entertainment industry, my husband has never been involved in any scandals. Even if there were, they were fabricated by the media and forced on him. What you did last time made me and my family very angry. "
Vanessa Bessie smiled and said, "I just expressed my love. It's very normal in Europe and America. Don't you think that I'm more suitable for him? I control trillions of dollars of wealth, and my figure and looks are not inferior to yours. Once I become the head of the Bessie family, we'll immediately stand at the top of the pyramid in the world. But you won't be of any help to him in his career. If you really want what's best for him, I think you should give him up. "
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Miss Bessie, you don't understand my husband at all. Even without me, he wouldn't have married you. Because your love is mixed with too many utilitarian things, this is what my husband hates the most. The Bessies were very rich, but not everyone wanted to be its owner. My husband is too proud to give a damn about anything that he hasn't worked hard to get. To him, the process is much more important than the result. "
Vanessa Bessie said with a hint of mockery, "You're taking it for granted. I don't believe there is a man in this world who doesn't love power. All they needed was a marriage contract, and they could get tens of trillions of dollars in wealth. Who do you think can withstand such temptation? "
Zhao Wanqing said with a face full of confidence, "I can. My husband and I can. Miss Bessie, your heart has been blinded by wealth and power. You don't believe in pure love. This is the fundamental difference between you and us. You say you like my husband, but in fact, I don't see any love in your eyes. What you love is his wealth, and you think he can help you achieve your goals. That's all. If he's just someone who takes a few thousand dollars every month, will you still marry him? You won't, but I will. Because what I love is his person, not his money. "
Vanessa Bessie looked at Zhao Wanqing's pure eyes. The words in her mouth were stuck in her throat, and she didn't say anything.
Just then, Xiao Yunhai walked over and smiled. "What are you two talking about?"
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "We just chatted casually."
The three of them casually ordered some beef, hamburgers, sardines, and the like. Xiao Yunhai said, "Miss Bessie, why did you call me here?"
Vanessa Bessie's expression dimmed. "Mr. Xiao, it's still the same question. Do you believe that I didn't send someone to kill the Steer father and son?"
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I know it wasn't you. You're not that stupid to do something that crosses Wall Street's bottom line."
Vanessa Bessie's eyes lit up. She said happily, "Thank you."
Xiao Yunhai shrugged. "There's no point in thanking me. Those tycoons on Wall Street are all very smart. How could they not know? They know very well. Miss Bessie, I can tell you clearly that even if you find the real murderer, Wall Street will only think that you found a random scapegoat. "
Vanessa Bessie frowned, and asked, "Why?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Citibank is only a private bank, but it's much more powerful than most of the state-owned banks. Now, it's going to take over Steyr Networks, which has a wide range of industries. If it were you, wouldn't you be worried? "
Vanessa Bessie said, "You mean that they've already teamed up and are preparing to isolate me."
Xiao Yunhai said, "Not preparing. They've already done it."
Vanessa Bessie nodded and said, "Mr. Xiao, what do you think I should do?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "Miss Bessie, you shouldn't be asking me this question. You should be asking yourself. You've worked at Citibank for so many years, you've been through all kinds of storms. If you can't even solve this, you might as well give up on the Bessie family's patriarch position. "
Vanessa Bessie smiled and said in Mandarin, "I don't know the true face of Mount Lu, but I'm in it. I've been obsessed with Mr. Steyr and his son's death, but I didn't jump out to see the problem. I'm really stupid. There are countless companies on Wall Street that have a partnership with Citibank. It's not difficult to rebuild our image. Mr. Xiao, thank you for your advice. "
Xiao Yunhai shook his head. "I don't deserve it. Even without me, your Steyr Networks will return to normal in no time. "
After the meal, Vanessa Bessie drove them to the headquarters of Yunyi Oil and Natural Gas Company.
Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing walked into the building hand in hand.
The staff at the front desk quickly greeted them.
When they arrived at the CEO's office, Xiao Yunhai hugged Zhao Wanqing as they stood by the window and smiled. "Honey, what do you think of this place?"
Zhao Wanqing said, "The building is grand, but it's a little old. It can't compare to the headquarters in Los Angeles."
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "When Yunyi Oil and Natural Gas Company makes money, I'll sell this building and buy a new one."
Zhao Wanqing said, "I think you might as well move to Los Angeles. It'll be easier to manage."
Xiao Yunhai's eyes lit up and he gave her a thumbs up. "Honey, you're so smart. When the company is on the right track, I'll put this on the agenda. Right, you kept tugging at my clothes during the meal. Is something wrong? "
Zhao Wanqing said, "That's right. I don't understand why you told Vanessa Bessie about Steyr Networks' situation. "
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "I knew it was this matter. Honey, to me, the most important thing about Steyr Networks isn't the company under it, but the talented and capable technical staff. The reason I hinted to Vanessa Bessie was to make her focus on the outside, so that she wouldn't have time to organize the internal situation. Otherwise, how am I going to seduce those amazing people? "
Zhao Wanqing revealed an expression of sudden realization and said, "Hubby, you're simply rotten to the core. When Vanessa Bessie settles the external situation and looks back, she'll realize that you've poached all the core staff of her company. She'll be pissed to death. When that happens, she'll probably have the urge to kill you. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "It can't be helped. We're competitors. It's normal to poach people on Wall Street. The key is whether Madam Christy can bring good news. "
Zhao Wanqing asked, "What if it succeeds?"
Xiao Yunhai's eyes shone with wisdom. "I'll immediately invest 100 billion USD to set up Yunqing Network. I have countless ideas in my mind. As long as I have the chance to come up with all of them, this network company will far surpass Steyr Networks. "
Xiao Yunhai thought of QQ, WeChat, Wifi, Meituan, and other popular software in his previous life. He was filled with confidence.
Zhao Wanqing touched Xiao Yunhai's forehead and said, "Honey, you don't have a fever. Why are you spouting such unrealistic nonsense?"
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "The truth will tell you that I'm not bragging."
That night, Wu Yifa called Xiao Yunhai.
"Xiao, let me tell you a piece of good news. Our matter is likely to be settled." Wu Yifa could not hide his excitement.
Xiao Yunhai was stunned. He did not expect this guy to be so efficient. Hence, he asked, "How did you guys do it? You actually settled it so quickly. "
Wu Yifa chuckled and said, "Of course, it was a brilliant idea that I came up with. I got someone to investigate Lora Noel and found out that she's a housewife who doesn't leave the house. Her only good friend is a female consultant in David Steyr's economic team named Kelsey Sawyer. Hence, I personally went over to talk to her for a long time. In the end, she agreed to help me persuade Lora Noel. "
Xiao Yunhai clicked his tongue and said, "It's not even set in stone yet. Why are you so excited?"
Wu Yifa said, "You're not done yet. Kelsey Sawyer just called me and said that she will bring me to see Ms. Lora Noel at nine tomorrow morning for a detailed discussion. Tell me, if she didn't agree, why would she look for me? "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Interesting. Who knows, this might really work out. By the way, don't forget about my social media website. Also, try not to mention me to prevent any accidents. You know that my relationship with David Steyr isn't that good. "
Wu Yifa nodded and said, "Don't worry, I understand."
The good news came one after another. Just as Wu Yifa finished the call, Christy brought another piece of news. She said that the three heads of Steyr Networks' patent department, software department, and hardware department wanted to meet Xiao Yunhai.
Xiao Yunhai agreed without hesitation and got Christy to make the arrangements.
