"What's wrong?" Sitting on the sofa, she leaned beside him and glanced at the folder in his hand.
"This is the basic content of the Meihai Resort bid. Didn't you say you wanted to learn? I had Xia Yu organize a copy for you to look at."
Taking the document, she didn't flip through it immediately. Instead, she looked at the man beside her, who was elegantly sipping coffee, with a surprised expression. "You're just giving such an important document to an outsider like me? Aren't you afraid I'll leak it? One of the bidders is my husband, and the other is my ex-boyfriend. Aren't you worried?"
"Hah, do you think I should be worried?" He set down his coffee cup and turned to look at her, half of his body lazily leaning against the ornate sofa, as if what she had just said was merely a trivial matter that posed no threat to him.
But to her, this was not a simple matter. The bidding for the Meihai Resort project involved multiple interests, and this document even contained confidential data regarding the entire bid. Yet he casually handed it over for her to study. Should she say he was overly confident or that he trusted her enough?
"Of course you should be worried! What if I leak the bid details? How would you handle that?"
"I have nothing to worry about when it comes to something I must obtain. If you want to see Wind Dust Group go bankrupt because of your leak, then feel free to tell either one of them about the bid details."
Leaning closer, he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his embrace. "Baby, whatever you do, consider the consequences. You're so smart; how could you not know what you should do?"
"I'm just saying..." She knew the gravity of the situation. Even though Xue Yiyang and Jiang Chengmu were her ex-boyfriend and new husband respectively, she would never joke about Wind Dust Group's future.
"Since you're clear about it, then weigh the pros and cons carefully. As a decision-maker, sometimes one decision can change everything. Eventually, you'll have to take charge of Wind Dust Group. I said I would help you, but don't let me down; otherwise, people will say I'm a terrible teacher!"
Over the years, only Xia Yu and Mosin had been able to learn by his side. She was the third person who vowed to learn from him and the only woman. If her abilities were too lacking, wouldn't that tarnish his reputation?
"Okay, I'll study hard! But you'll have to give me time to adapt." Her expertise wasn't in financial management; transitioning from designer to decision-maker wasn't that easy!
"Alright, take your time. If there's anything you don't understand, come ask me." With that, he pushed himself up from her side and turned to leave her suite.
Sitting on the sofa, she looked at the document in her hand and then at the closed door, feeling a sudden sense of daze.
Mu Tongzi has been treating her so well lately that it feels unreal, like a dream. He is not an ordinary man, and she lacks the courage to start a new relationship. Even though Xue Yiyang has returned, the emotional scars from the past cannot be erased.
After all, she knows better than anyone that to Mu Tongzi, she is merely a woman to satisfy his physical needs. The one who truly occupies his heart is probably Yue Qingchen, a woman he has never even met!
With a bitter smile, she leaned back on the sofa, feeling as if all her strength had been drained away, unable to muster any energy.
Xia Yu knocked and entered the suite, immediately spotting President standing by the floor-to-ceiling window. He paused for a moment before stepping forward. “President, we have clarified the situation regarding the shares of Wind Dust Group.”
Mu Tongzi turned around, walked a few steps, and sat down on the sofa, gesturing to the seat opposite him. “Sit down and talk!”
“Okay!” Nodding, Xia Yu turned to sit down. Remembering something else, he raised his head. “I found out that Jiang Chengmu is unwilling to divorce Miss Gu.”
“Oh?” As if hearing something surprising, Mu Tongzi raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of unexpectedness in his dark gaze. “Hasn't he always wanted a divorce? Why is he unwilling now that he has the chance? Could it be...”
Thinking of a possibility, his typically handsome face suddenly darkened. His gaze fell on the data in front of him. “Jiang Chengmu holds ten percent of the shares, which is enough to enter the Wind Dust Group Board of Directors. If Wind Dust Group falls into crisis, buying up the group's stocks won't be difficult for him. If you were in his position, what would you do?”
“Ten percent is not a small amount; acquiring it would require a significant sum of money. However, these shares were transferred to him by Miss Gu without compensation. The true intention of the Jiang family is to swallow up Wind Dust Group. If we want to buy those shares from Jiang Chengmu, it will likely take some time.”
“I'll give you time to prepare. After the bidding for Meihai Resort, if Jiang Group does not win, they will surely look for another partnership to make up for their losses. Their next target will also be your target!”
“Yes! I will prepare right away!” Seizing opportunities is essential for gaining an advantageous position; this is what President taught him. This time, their opponent is the Jiang Family, which has strong backing—he needs to prepare thoroughly.
As Xia Yu stood up and was about to walk to the door, he seemed to think of something and hesitated for a moment, unsure how to speak.
“Just say what you need to say!” Looking up from his documents, Mu Tongzi regarded the figure still lingering with calm patience, waiting for him to express himself.
"Miss Yue She..." cleared her throat, Xia Yu spoke up, "She called me today and said she would be returning to the country in a few days..."
"Got it." Responding lightly, Mu Tongzi waved his hand to signal him to return to his room. Xia Yu didn't dare to say more and turned to leave the suite.
With a click, the door closed. His gaze, which had been on the documents, slowly shifted away. Upon learning that Yue Qingchen was about to return, he was not surprised; in fact, he didn't even feel happy. This calmness exceeded his expectations.
He sighed lightly, casually tossing aside the materials in his hand as he stood up. Outside the floor-to-ceiling window, the bustling night had already descended.
Just as Xue Yiyang returned home after going out, he glanced at the car that had just driven away from his sight and turned back into the mansion.
The butler brought out a fruit platter and coffee. He turned to look at his mother sitting in the living room and asked lightly, "Where's grandpa?"
The butler paused and replied, "The old man is in the study!"
"Were there any guests just now?"
"..." The butler glanced at Xiao Jingqiu on the sofa, hesitating whether to tell the truth when Xiao Jingqiu spoke up, "It's a friend of mine, Yang Yang. Come here; mom has something to say to you!"
Even though he was reluctant to sit down and talk with her, Xue Yiyang eventually walked over and asked lightly, "What do you want to say, mom?"
Hearing his impatient tone, Xiao Jingqiu immediately frowned, a hint of displeasure appearing on her well-maintained face. "What's wrong? Are you so impatient to talk to your mother? Are you still angry with me because of that woman? Everything I did was for your own good!"
