My ex-boyfriend is looking forward to my bankruptcy

Didn't Xi Mozhou always try his best to distance himself from me in such situations? Also, when did I make an appointment with him?

Qu Tao glared at him without saying anything, but Mu Jingyan looked back and forth at the two of them, surprised for a few seconds, and was very understanding.

"It's okay. If Mr. Qu has an appointment at noon, it can be changed to the afternoon."

Qu Tao was thinking about his own company, which was currently being severely suppressed by Xi Mozhou. If he could establish a relationship with Mu Jingyan, it might be a way for the company to survive.

"Mr. Mu, don't listen to Mr. Xi's jokes. I don't have any appointments at noon."

"Oh... Then when it's over, shall we go together?"

"sure, no problem."

Xi Mozhou's lips moved, and the leader on the stage suddenly coughed twice, tried the microphone and began to speak.

Xi Mozhou had no choice but to turn around with an expression as if he would settle the score with him after this was over.

But he didn't expect that Qu Tao didn't stay until the end. After the leader finished speaking, he gave a look to Mu Jingyan next to him and slipped out of the venue.

"Mr. Qu is leaving now?"

Qu Tao waited at the door for a while, and Mu Jingyan came out.

"Yes, I'm just a supporting role anyway, there's no need to stay until the end."

"That's right. What does Mr. Qu like to eat?"

In the hotel private room, Qu Tao and Mu Jingyan were ordering food when Assistant Wang called and sounded extremely anxious.

"Mr. Qu, where are you now? I have an important document that I urgently need your signature on."

"You're back to the company so soon?"

"Yes, would you like to go back to the company, or send me the location and I will deliver the documents?"

On the other end of the phone, Assistant Wang received the location sent by Qu Tao and sent it to Xi Mozhou who was beside him.

"Mr. Xi, could you please not go over there? If I hadn't pushed Secretary Zhang out last time, Mr. Qu would probably have become suspicious of me."

"Don't worry, I know him. After all, you are a veteran of the company. He can't guess you are here."

"But..." Assistant Wang hesitated to speak. Seeing Xi Mozhou's frown, he continued helplessly, "When Secretary Zhang resigned last time, President Qu said that if he found another traitor, he would send him to the police even if he had to spend all his money."

“Not sending it to Africa anymore?”

"Boss Xi..." Assistant Wang said, his face almost tearful. "I'm almost thirty and still haven't found a wife. You're not really going to let Boss Qu send me to a brothel, are you?"

"I haven't even found a wife yet, why are you so anxious?"

After Xi Mozhou finished speaking, he walked away. Assistant Wang looked at his back, thought of the harsh words Qu Tao had said at that time, and began to plan a way out for himself.

What is YD? He has watched a lot of videos in the past few days. It seems that even animals are being attacked there.

"Mr. Qu, there's actually no rush for this document. Let's wait until you return to the company to sign it."

Qu Tao glanced at the message sent by Assistant Wang, put away his phone, and continued chatting with Mu Jingyan.

"Mr. Mu, I'm sure you've heard that Difeng has been targeting our Yuanhang. Do you really not mind cooperating with our company?"

"Mr. Qu, you're worrying too much. I admire Mr. Qu as a person. If you have any difficulties, please feel free to come to me."

"Thank you, President Mu. I'll toast you again."

Mu Jingyan accompanied him to drink the wine in the glass and spoke carefully.

"Rumor has it that you stole Mr. Xi's wife three years ago, so Di Fengcai..."

"Cough cough..."

Qu Tao coughed violently, and Mu Jingyan quickly took out a tissue and handed it to him.

"Have I offended you? If it's inconvenient for Mr. Qu to answer, you don't have to."

"No, I just choked on the wine. The rumors are not wrong."

Seeing that he was about to speak again, Qu Tao was worried that he would keep pursuing this topic, so he quickly stood up.

"Mr. Mu, please excuse me. I need to go to the restroom."

Coming out of the bathroom, Qu Tao stood in front of the sink and washed his hands and face at the same time.

Just as he was staring at the mirror, wondering why Mu Jingyan helped him, a few tissues were handed to him from the side.

"Drinking?"

"Why are you here?" His eyes, already drunken, turned even redder when he saw Xi Mozhou. "Are you following me?"

"Don't think I'm such a dirty person. I don't have this habit. The hotel was booked in advance by the school. It was just a coincidence."

Seeing that the water stains on his face were not wiped clean, Xi Mozhou took out a tissue and helped him wipe it while speaking.

"You tend to get carried away when you're drunk. Stop drinking for a while. When you're ready to leave, call me and I'll take you there."

"When did I have sex?"

Qu Tao grasped the key point and angrily opened his arms. Xi Mozhou smiled evilly and leaned over to whisper in his ear.

"The first time we were together, you seduced me when you were drunk."

"Bullshit."

Qu Tao tends to lose his memory easily when he's drunk, but he never believed that he would seduce someone he had only spoken to a few times and was not familiar with at all.

Because of Xi Mozhou, Qu Tao didn't drink again after returning to the private room. He thought about it for a long time and finally looked at Mu Jingyan.

"Mr. Mu, can I ask you something?"

"Mr. Qu, feel free to say whatever you want to say. You don't need to be polite to me."

"Why are you willing to help me?"

Now the entire tobacco market business circle is laughing at him, although he is very grateful to Mu Jingyan for standing up and discussing cooperation with him at this time.

But as the saying goes, no reward without merit, so it is better to ask about some things in advance.

"I just said that I admire Mr. Qu's character."

"But we have never interacted before. How does Mr. Mu know who I am?"

"Because..." Mu Jingyan paused, and seemed to have made a big decision amidst his hesitation, "Because I like you."

“…”, Qu Tao’s head was buzzing.

Seeing that he had frightened the person, Mu Jingyan drank a glass of wine to ease the awkwardness before continuing.

"But don't worry, Mr. Qu. I'm helping you, and I don't intend to use this as a threat."

"Um... Mr. Mu, I'm sorry, my assistant called and there's an important document that needs my signature. I'll be leaving now."

Qu Tao stood up from the table without any hesitation, and Mu Jingyan changed his address and called him.

"Qu Tao..."

Seeing him stop, Mu Jingyan hurriedly explained.

"I fell in love with you the moment I saw you at the last banquet. If you hadn't insisted on asking, I wouldn't have told you. Besides, I'm not cooperating with you to gain any benefits from you."

The man's words were sincere, but he had no intention of leaving Qu Tao.

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Mu. Sorry, I have something else to do and I'll leave first."

Back in the car, Qu Tao sat in the back seat waiting for the driver, and the back door was opened from the outside.

"It's over? Are we going home?"

When Qu Tao saw Xi Mozhou getting into the car, a surge of resentment welled up in his heart.

He is where he is today thanks to the man in front of him.

"Go down. I don't want to see you."

"I haven't done it for a few days, why is it so popular?"
