Mr. Lester nodded, and Jiang Lin's expression changed slightly. He didn't know what to think of, and suddenly became gloomy. He stared at the backs of the two leaving for a long time without saying a word.
He stood up, bid farewell to the host, and walked out of the lounge, standing at the stairs, condescendingly staring at a pair of couples who had already walked around the corner.
"Dong Huo is very capable."
Huo Hanting stopped in his tracks and turned his head. Jiang Lin was staring at them not far away with cold eyes.
This is the first time Gu Wanyan saw Jiang Lin showing such an expression, which shows how bad his mood is at the moment, but Huo Hanting wants to add fuel to the fire.
"Acceptance, Second Uncle Jiang."
Huo Hanting looked at him, his eyes sharpened instantly, and he shot straight at Jiang Lin's eyebrows with a piercing ice blade.
"However, Second Uncle Jiang probably doesn't know the situation yet." He curled his lips slightly, but it was so cold that there was no warmth, "I forgot where I am now."
This is in Rongcheng, Huo Hanting's headquarters, and the Huo family's one-handed, undisputed territory. When he stomped his feet, all the rich and powerful families in the south would be terrified. Jiang Lin dared to do something here, no doubt touched his heart bottom line.
This is a kind of provocation, and Huo Hanting always takes revenge.
"There will be heavy rain in Rongcheng in the past two days, and the ground is wet and the roads are slippery. Uncle Jiang is getting old, so it's best to be careful."
Jiang Lin's pupils shrank suddenly, and he watched the two of them disappear around the corner of the stairs with a gloomy expression. There was a faint noise downstairs, but he couldn't feel a trace of warmth.
"Han Ting, didn't he win this cooperation? Why is he so angry?" Gu Wanyan got into the car and asked after hesitating for a while.
Huo Hanting sat beside her, half of his razor-sharp side face was hidden in the shadows, looking mysterious and cold, as if carved out of ice.
The man turned his head slightly, his eyes softened a little: "Because Leicester's visit to China this time is actually to discuss two cooperation deals."
"Two strokes?"
Gu Wanyan was confused.
"Yes, one of them is to find a partner on the bright side to open up the eastern market, and the other one¡ª" Huo Hanting's eyes deepened, "They discovered a primary diamond mine in Xikasai, South Africa, but Primary mines are very difficult to mine and require technology and cost, so they decided to find a partner."
"You negotiated this cooperation?" Gu Wanyan blinked. She knew that Huo's own subsidiary also operates jewelry. With a diamond mine, she can mine and process by herself or cooperate with other jewelry companies. The profit Much bigger than a brand partner.
Huo Hanting nodded: "Huo's also has minerals in South Africa, so the news flow is faster than Jiang's. As soon as I got the news, I secretly went abroad to discuss with Leicester, and finally reached a cooperation. After that, we talked for more than one year. This month, they came to China this time to sign the final contract."
"So you lied to them." Gu Wanyan suddenly realized, "You made all of them think that you are bound to win this jewelry cooperation, but you actually did it for them to see?"
Huo Hanting did not deny: "If Jiang Lin wants to intervene wholeheartedly, it will be very troublesome."
Gu Wanyan was dumbfounded, so from the very beginning, Huo Hanting didn't want this cooperation at all. On the contrary, Jiang Lin's party was played around by him, and he was proud of getting a little bit of sweetness. Little did he know that the whole candy was already taken by others. moved away.
What about the previous life?
In the previous life, did the Huo family negotiate another cooperation deal?
"Han Ting." Gu Wanyan hesitated for a while, "If, I mean, if you don't win the development rights of the eastern suburbs and this cooperation, will Huo's go bankrupt?"
Before Huo Hanting could answer, Jiang Yu, who was driving ahead, laughed and said, "Miss Gu, the Huo Corporation is not a piece of paper. How could it be possible to go bankrupt without these two projects? At most, there will be a little loss, but it won't reach the point of injury." It's a bone-destroying situation, let alone bankruptcy."
A little loss at most?
Gu Wanyan was stunned, why was there such a big turmoil in her previous life, and she looked like she was about to declare bankruptcy?
Huo Hanting stared at her, turned his head and spoke again. Colorful neon lights flashed from the window, becoming his background board, making him more and more unreal.
Gu Wanyan suppressed this question, and when she turned her head and saw a milk tea shop outside the window, she patted the front seat: "Jiang Yu, stop, I'll go down and buy a shaker milkshake for Chengcheng."
Jiang Yu stopped the car and unbuckled his seat belt: "Don't go down, I'll go down and buy it for you."
Gu Wanyan was wearing a dress and had difficulty moving. When she heard this, she didn't object.
When Jiang Zhong got out of the car, there were only the two of them left in the car. Gu Wanyan lowered her head, and the originally spacious space felt cramped.
Fortunately, Jiang Yu came back soon, and handed it to Gu Wanyan with a paper bag. There was only a cup of milkshake in the narrow rectangular paper bag, and there was a plastic-wrapped spoon and straw beside it.
The car restarted and soon arrived at Wanhuang Court.
Hearing the sound of the car, Huo Yuncheng quickly ran out from the hall, Gu Wanyan temporarily forgot about the unpleasantness, and smiled and showed Huo Yuncheng the bag.
"Dangdang, mom keeps her word, right?"
"Long live mother!" Huo Yuncheng happily took the bag, held up the hem of Gu Wanyan's skirt thoughtfully, and gave a gentleman's salute, "Ma'am, please come in."
Gu Wanyan walked into the hall with a smile on her face. After going upstairs and changing her clothes, she found Huo Yuncheng was the only one left in the hall. He was dangling his feet and drinking a milkshake while sitting on a stool.
"Where's Dad?"
Huo Yuncheng bit the straw and turned his head, "Dad has gone upstairs, it seems that there is something important to discuss."
Gu Wanyan nodded, and sat down beside Huo Yuncheng.
"Mom, do you want to eat?" Huo Yuncheng lifted the lid, picked up a spoon and dug inside, scooped up a spoonful and handed it to Gu Wanyan.
A piece of strawberry pulp was wrapped in the pink milkshake, and Gu Wanyan ate it with open mouth.
The sweet taste bloomed on the taste buds, and Gu Wanyan swallowed it in one gulp, feeling comfortable in all internal organs.
After the mother and son finished sharing a glass of milkshake, Gu Wanyan coaxed him to go to sleep. Before leaving, he glanced at the closed study door next to Huo Hanting's room. A soft light came through the gap under the door frame, showing that there were still people inside. sleepless.
Gu Wanyan pursed her lips, turned around and went downstairs to make a cup of hot tea, she carried the tray to the study and knocked on the door.
After a long time inside, a slightly tired "please come in" came.
Gu Wanyan pushed the door open and entered, Huo Hanting leaned back on the chair, and when he heard someone coming in, he opened his eyes and looked at her. He was wearing a white shirt, which was distinct from the black chair behind him, but close to his pure black eyes.
There was an empty coffee cup on the table, Gu Wanyan took the cup back and put the hot tea in his hand: "Drink less coffee, try not to stay up late."
Knowing that he was busy with work, Gu Wanyan didn't persuade him, and after a few words, she planned to turn around and leave. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
