President's Brand

Chapter 14

She had no intention of admiring the beautiful scenery in front of her, Xi Mu approached softly, and when she mustered up the courage to raise her head, she happened to meet his bottomless eyes...

The man's obsidian-like eyes were as deep as the sea, he sat there motionless, but he had a fierce aura controlling everything around him.Xi Mu stood in front of him, his whole soul was almost absorbed by his deep eyes.

"I'm willing to agree to your last request." Xi Mu bit her lip, trying to keep her tone calm, "As long as you tell me the information about the person who donated the kidney!"

"Are you negotiating terms with me?" Qiao Xiyao smiled lowly, with a look of disdain on his face, he threw the Parker pen in his hand on the table, and raised his hand to take out a document from the first drawer.

Throwing the information in his hand in front of her, Qiao Xiyao said patiently: "The price of steel products fluctuates. Your father didn't take this issue into consideration when investing, so investment failure is certain."

Xi Mu picked up the document and looked at it, his expression was indescribably complicated.

Seeing her face gradually turning pale, Qiao Xiyao narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said: "And his recent physical examination report has long shown that he has a tendency to relapse!" After a pause, he sneered and said: "I said Never playing tricks on my back. I'm good at controlling how things go so I can maximize my profits."

Xi Mu stared at him intently, feeling chills in his heart, this man actually watched every step of the way with cold eyes, waiting for a good show!
As if seeing through her thoughts, Qiao Xiyao answered with a smile, "All of this is nothing special to anyone, so you are not qualified to negotiate terms with me!" His cold and deep voice made her tremble all over.

Taking a deep breath, when Xi Mu looked at the sarcasm in his eyes, what was left in her heart suddenly shattered. She understood his eyes, and could only bow her head to fate, "I admit defeat, I am willing to gamble and admit defeat!"

Apparently Xi Mu's words pleased him, Qiao Xiyao smiled gloomyly, he nodded and said, "The last bet, as I said, when you admit defeat, the chips will be doubled!"

Suddenly startled, Xi Mu's already pale face became even paler because of his words, she gritted her teeth and asked, "What do you mean?"

Qiao Xiyao looked up, leaning back against the armchair, with a predatory smile on his lips, "I'll set the deadline, until I'm tired of playing!"

If there was a knife in his hand, Xi Mu would definitely stab him in the chest without hesitation, and it would be fine to die together!But she was sober, and she was still so calm after listening to his harsh words.

"Okay." Xi Mu said in a low voice, she didn't dare to bargain, because she knew that it would only make her lose worse.

Snapped!
A white envelope was thrown in front of him, Xi Mu opened it, and saw an address and a key inside.

Almost instantly she understood what this meant, the thing in her hand seemed to be poisonous, she quickly retreated to him, choked up and said, "I don't want it."

Qiao Xiyao stared at her, that handsome face was full of smiles, but his tone became more and more fierce: "Hehe, you are on call?" His tone was so soft, but the words he said were like countless sharp knives, piercing into her the key.

"Yes..." Xi Mu gripped the hem of his clothes tightly, until his fingertips turned white, he was able to suppress the cry that was about to come out.

Qiao Xiyao admired her expression contentedly, watched her forbearance lower her posture, and said happily in her heart: "Deal!"

make a deal!

These two words echoed in Xi Mu's ears, making her feel in a trance where time and space intersect.

Six years ago, it was the same negotiation. At that time, she was still qualified to say a deal. The ridiculous thing is, now she doesn't even have the right to say that!
A detailed donor profile appeared in front of him. Xi Mu picked up the profile and felt a sick feeling in his throat.The key returned just now was thrown in front of her again, she frowned at him, full of puzzlement.

Qiao Xiyao raised his chin slightly, looked at her with obsidian eyes, and pressed his fingers on the table with a playful and gloomy tone, "I've never been in the habit of opening doors for others!"

Xi Mu's whole body was stiff, looking at the glaring bunch of keys, she slowly stretched out her hand and squeezed it tightly, the palm of her hand was hot, like a red-hot iron, and the pain was deeply imprinted in her flesh.

I don't know if it's God's blessing, but since finding a donor, Xi Mocheng's condition has miraculously stabilized, and even healed day by day.Seeing his father recovering quickly, Xi Mu felt it was worth it even though he was suffering in his heart!

In just one week, the people and things around Xi Mu turned upside down again.The joy of rebuilding the old good disappeared without a trace before it could spread.When she needed the most care, the man who loved her and took pity on her had already gone away.

Ling He's gentle eyebrows appeared in front of his eyes, and Xi Mu thought with relief: For a beautiful man like him, there should be an even better woman to match him.Thinking of this, the scene when she saw Qin Ran at the airport that day appeared in her mind. They are a good match for both men and women!
Resisting the pain in her heart, Xi Mu sucked her nose hard to force back the tears, she told herself, let it go!As early as two years ago, the story between them should have ended, and the heartbreak now is just the punishment of her greed!What's more, now that she is entangled with the devil again, she has no reason to want to go back to the beginning...

Taking leave for a week in a row, Xi Mu was a little worried about the company's system.After her father was able to get out of bed and walk around, she urged her again and again. After she settled her father, she returned to Qin's to work.

Ever since I ran into their good deeds outside Cheng An's apartment that day, when Xi Mu saw Qin Yao again, his expression would be unnatural.Obviously Qin Yao noticed this detail and didn't mind.

During the lunch break, Cheng An called her out, and the two made an appointment to meet at a cafe near Qin's.

"Why did you suddenly take a week off and didn't answer my calls? I don't know how worried I am!" Seeing her face, Cheng An scolded her.

Xi Mu was originally in a gloomy mood, but because she got better, her tone also teased: "You are very well informed on the gossip! Who told you?"

Cheng An just took a sip of caramel cappuccino, almost choked on her words, put down his cup and glared at her repeatedly.

Xi Mu told her about his father's illness this week, and in return she roared, "Xi Mu, you don't tell me such a big thing, do you still treat me as a friend?"
