C49 You Are Very Close to Her?
She recalled that Qiao Tianqi had told her that the Tang family and LY were dealing with the Qiao family.
She had wondered if there was any conflict of interest between the LY and the Qiao family, or if there was a personal grudge between the two parties. She had never taken the initiative to ask Ling Yao for confirmation on this matter.
Currently, the cooperation between the Tang family and the LY seemed to provide a reasonable explanation for the LY's actions against the Qiao family.
Just as Hai Xiaomin was lost in her thoughts, she heard the words of the Qiao family.
"The public opinion on the Qiao's is still hot on the internet, causing the performance of the major shopping malls under their banner to drop drastically. Although it is not a fatal blow, it is enough to affect the reputation and popularity of the Qiao's's business in the long run. If we want to completely destroy them, we need to take another step forward. " Facing Hai Xiaomin's clear eyes, Tang Xuan paused for a moment.
Ling Yao tilted his head slightly and saw Hai Xiaomin paying attention to the news on this side. Furthermore, Tang Xuan clearly had some misgivings about this. So he smiled and said generously, "Let's call it a day. We can talk about this topic in the future."
"Alright!" Tang Xuan agreed readily. The two of them signed their names on the contract, put away their copies, and stood up to shake hands.
"These few days, I am indebted to you for taking care of Xiaomin." Tang Xuan did not forget to thank him.
Ling Yao had a tacit understanding. He pursed his lips and smiled. "You are welcome."
Releasing his hand, the two of them returned to Hai Xiaomin's side.
"Are you guys done talking?" Hai Xiaomin pretended to ask naturally.
The last two sentences of the two were related to her, which made her slightly care.
The meaning of those words, did it mean that Ling Yao's care for her during these three days was actually entrusted by Tang Xuan?
Including the most advanced medical technology used on her legs, it was all because he showed some sincerity to his friends, business partners, and used it as a bargaining chip for their cooperation?
Thinking of his previous actions, Hai Xiaomin could not help but want to laugh. If that was really the case, then Ling Yao really would do anything for the sake of benefits!
"En." Tang Xuan half-squatted in front of her, his gaze landing on her calf that was covered in splints. He raised his head again. He said with a serious face, "Xiaomin. At that time, I was afraid that Uncle and the others would be worried. I hid the fact that you had a car accident from Ling Yao. If you want to go back now and explain clearly, I will accompany you. Otherwise, you can also go back with me and stay with Xuening for a few days. Wait until your leg injury is almost healed before going home."
Hai Xiaomin was a little stunned when she heard this. She subconsciously looked at Ling Yao. He stood there calmly. His eyes, which had always been unfathomable, were filled with indifference.
So he had already planned to hand her over to Tang Xuan?
Hai Xiaomin felt a faint sense of loss and dejection in her heart. However, what was the difference between Ling Yao sending her home and Tang Xuan sending her home?
She felt that she was simply baffled at this moment!
No matter what the reason he saved her was, saving her with good intentions was always true. She forced herself to calm down. "I won't be going back for now. Mr Tang, I'd better stay at your house for a few days."
Tang Xuan was delighted and could not hide his joy as he stood up. He quickly said, "You're welcome!"
Hai Xiaomin smiled at Tang Xuan. She looked at Ling Yao again and smiled. "Mr. Ling, if there is a chance, I will treat you to a meal next time."
However, when Ling Yao heard her, he pursed his sexy thin lips and laughed very disdainfully. "You owe me so much, yet you want to send me off with just a meal?"
Hai Xiaomin had an embarrassed expression.
He casually patted Tang Xuan's arm. "I'll be leaving first."
Tang Xuan nodded hastily. Ling Yao put one of his hands in his pocket and left a cold back view. He walked to the door without looking back and waved his hand cooly. "At least ten meals!"
This guy...
"Mr Tang, has he been so stingy ever since we met?" Hai Xiaomin turned her head and complained to Tang Xuan.
Ling Yao had not even walked out of the door. Tang Xuan clenched his fist and pretended to cough twice to cover his mouth. He said frankly, "Actually, he is not too stingy..."
"He's obviously very stingy." Hai Xiaomin pretended to be surprised.2
Tang Xuan seemed to see Ling Yao's back stiffen and almost could not hold back his laughter.
Back in the car, Ling Yao fell into silence. His fingers rhythmically tapped on his thigh. Jess glanced back through the rearview mirror of the car from time to time. He was familiar with Ling Yao's habits. He was not in a hurry to drive. He waited patiently.
"Jess, what do you think of Hai Xiaomin?" Ling Yao suddenly asked.
Jess made an expression that Westerners used to shrug. He thought for a moment and said, "She is proactive, outgoing, considerate, and not very smart."
He did not immediately distinguish her strengths and weaknesses, which represented his objective.
"She's not smart enough?" Ling Yao asked back.
Jess said helplessly, "Boss, you know, in front of you, no one has the right to be praised like this."
Ling Yao's intelligence was far beyond that of a normal person. This was not a secret.
Ling Yao let out a dull laugh with his nose and continued the previous topic. "She is stubborn, reckless, naive and romantic, and likes to use clumsy techniques to disguise herself."
He rubbed his chin with his fingers, lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "She is like a little princess in a castle, willful and honest. She can disregard the consequences and do whatever she wants to do..."
This was also an objective tone that did not differentiate between praise and criticism.
He laughed in a low voice, his low and hoarse voice carrying a trace of obscure and self-deprecating. "Sometimes, I'm really a little jealous of this kind of person..."
At that instant, the air around him seemed to have frozen, and it revealed a darkness and pressure that caused one to be unable to breathe.
Jealousy?
Jess was shocked. He didn't expect that the boss, who was envied by countless people, would be jealous of others. Furthermore, the person he was jealous of was only a woman who looked very ordinary!
"Let's go. I'm going to hold a high-level meeting in the afternoon." This topic had come to an end. Ling Yao restrained his emotions and returned to his usual cold and domineering attitude.
"Yes." Jess started the engine. He suddenly thought of something and confirmed it again. "You really let her go just like that?"
Ling Yao glanced at him indifferently. "Are you very familiar with her?"
Jess obviously knew who he was talking about.
Ling Yao snorted. The temperature difference in the wagon suddenly dropped.
