After the divorce, he went on a motorcycle trip, and his ex-wife and daughter were filled with regre
68. So it was already planned to cooperate with Blue Ocean all along?
"Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you." Jiang Ye couldn't help but laugh as he watched her wolf down her food, and pulled out a tissue to hand it to her.
Xia Yu took the tissue and wiped her mouth, smiling somewhat embarrassedly, but her chopsticks didn't stop.
She ate two large bowls of rice and cleaned up all three dishes on the table.
When she finished eating, Xia Yu picked up her empty rice bowl, looked at the little bit of rich tomato and egg broth left at the bottom, and ate it all. Finally, she stuck out her pink tongue and gently licked the rim of the bowl twice.
Jiang Ye took in the whole scene.
He raised an eyebrow, a playful glint in his deep eyes. Leaning forward slightly, he lowered his voice and teased, "President Xia, you look so good licking the bowl, so skilled... Why didn't you lick me last night in bed?"
"Pfft—cough cough cough!"
Xia Yu almost spat out the mouthful of water she had just drunk, choking and coughing violently. Her face instantly turned bright red, and even her neck turned red.
"Jiang Ye! You...you scoundrel!!"
Xia Yu was filled with shame and indignation. She put down her bowl, stood up, walked around the table, and punched Jiang Ye hard on the shoulder twice.
That bastard! He usually seems so serious and mysterious, but how come he has such a foul mouth in private, daring to say all sorts of dirty things!
Jiang Ye smiled, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her into his arms, letting her sit on his lap.
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore." Jiang Ye put his arm around her waist, rested his chin on her shoulder, and smelled the faint fragrance in her hair.
Xia Yu struggled a couple of times but couldn't break free, so she let him hold her. After eating and drinking her fill, a person's temper always becomes much milder.
She leaned against Jiang Ye's chest, listening to his steady heartbeat, when suddenly she remembered something important.
Xia Yu turned her head, her beautiful eyes fixed on Jiang Ye's face, and her tone became serious:
"Jiang Ye, let's be serious. You're not going to back out of the Cloud Top Town project, are you? Are you really willing to cooperate with Blue Ocean Group?"
Although Jiang Ye agreed readily in bed last night, in the business world, no one can guarantee anything without a written agreement. Moreover, Jiang Ye is the founder of Kunlun Capital; if he really wanted to renege on his promise, Xia Yu wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
Jiang Ye frowned slightly at her expression, feigning difficulty, and sighed, saying, "Well... President Xia, as you know, Cloud Top Town is a multi-billion dollar project. Although Blue Ocean Group is good, its foundation is still a bit weak. I've thought about it carefully, and I'm still not too willing to hand over such a large project to you."
Upon hearing this, Xia Yu's heart sank to the bottom.
She suddenly stood up from Jiang Ye's lap.
"I knew it!"
"I knew you capitalists were all the same! You're all liars! You were all sweet talkers in bed last night, but you turned on me the moment you got out of bed today! Jiang Ye, you bastard! You just played me for a fool, didn't you?!"
"Forget it!! I don't expect anything from you!"
After saying that, Xia Yu turned around and was about to get up.
Seeing that she was really anxious, Jiang Ye quickly stood up, grabbed her arm, and pulled her back.
"Check your phone first."
Jiang Ye smiled, took out his phone from his pocket, and tapped the screen a few times.
"Ding-dong—"
Xia Yu's phone, which was on the coffee table, rang. It was a notification sound from WeChat that a file had been received.
Xia Yu paused for a moment, stopped struggling, looked at Jiang Ye suspiciously, then walked over, picked up her phone, and opened WeChat.
Jiang Ye sent her a PDF file.
The document's title is prominently displayed as: "Draft Framework for Cooperation between Kunlun Capital and Blue Ocean Group on the Genting Town Project".
Xia Yu's breathing stopped instantly.
With trembling fingers, she opened the file and quickly scanned its contents.
The cooperation model, the proportion of capital injection, the allocation of project leadership, profit sharing... every clause is clearly written, and the conditions are extremely generous. It's as if the huge cake of Yunding Town is being served directly to Blue Ocean Group.
"This...this is..." Xia Yu raised her head, looking at Jiang Ye with a face full of shock.
Jiang Ye walked to her side, reached out and ruffled her hair, and said with a smile, "This is a cooperation agreement that Lei Heng had someone draft last night. I was just teasing you, you actually believed it?"
Xia Yu stared at him blankly, her mind still a little confused.
Jiang Ye's joking expression vanished, and his tone became serious and sincere: "Xia Yu, to be honest, I really regret not contacting Blue Ocean Group sooner. I was genuinely surprised when I saw your proposal at the closed-door meeting yesterday. Your plans for Cloud Top Town and your vision for the future business model are highly consistent with our internal assessment report at Kunlun Capital."
He paused, then continued, "If I had seen your proposal earlier, I wouldn't have let Lei Heng contact those other shady companies; it was a complete waste of time. Your Blue Ocean Group has the strength, the local experience, and the proposal is so perfect, why wouldn't I cooperate?"
Hearing Jiang Ye's praise, Xia Yu's grievances vanished instantly, replaced by a surge of joy.
Got it!
The Genting Town project has really been secured!?
But after the initial euphoria, Xia Yu's clever mind suddenly realized a crucial issue.
She suddenly raised her head, squinted at Jiang Ye, and her eyes turned dangerous.
"Wait a minute." Xia Yu gritted her teeth and asked, word by word, "You just said that Lei Heng drafted this agreement last night? In other words, after hearing my proposal yesterday, you had already decided to cooperate with the Blue Ocean Group?!"
Jiang Ye was stunned for a moment, then inwardly cried out that he had let something slip.
"Uh... well..." Jiang Ye touched his nose, his eyes darting around.
"Eno!"
Xia Yu completely erupted, pouncing on him like an angry little lioness:
"Jiang Ye, you bastard! You decided to cooperate yesterday afternoon, and last night at the banquet you deliberately made fun of me, forcing me to drink three glasses of baijiu! After we got back, you even threatened me with the project, tormenting me all night! Are you even human?!"
Xia Yu was absolutely furious.
After all that, it turns out this bastard had already reserved the project for her, but he used it as leverage to trick her into bed, and that damn sugar daddy agreement still went through with it.
How can there be such a cunning and shameless man in this world!
"Cough cough... You're trying to murder your husband!"
Jiang Ye coughed as she pinched him, quickly grabbing her wrist and laughing as he tried to dodge, "President Xia, can't you be reasonable? This agreement has been drafted, but it hasn't been stamped yet! Without the stamp, it's invalid! Last night I was just testing your sincerity!"
"I'll test your sister!" Xia Yu cursed angrily and kicked Jiang Ye in the shin.
