We made up at the beginning, and I continued my relationship with my secret crush

"You both have the same amount of shares? You split the company equally between the two of you?"

"Not really. Oh, let me be frank. You two don't seem like outsiders to me now. Originally, I contributed about 77% and Pei Pei 23%, but I accidentally bought... something and didn't have enough money, so I only got the same number of shares as Pei Pei. My mom ended up buying the rest, but they're basically mine now."

Qi Mo understood immediately after hearing this.

Something must have happened in the previous life that made Yu An's mother know about Pei Si's situation, so it was understandable that Pei Ma was kicked out in the end. After all, the combined share of Pei Ma and Yu An was only 46%.

And what happened is very likely that Brother Pei and Yu An finally chose to be together?

This also explains why Pei Ma can't let go of this person.

No wonder Pei Ma never thought of taking revenge on Meng Qi. Even after he became famous by following her, he would intentionally or unintentionally guide Meng Qi's newcomers.

Thinking of this, Qi Mo looked at Yu An again and liked him more.

What do the slippers, big shorts, and messy hair mean? It means that Yu An's attitude towards life is to pursue relaxation and naturalness. He is also tall and strong, just right to protect Pei Ma.

But then, Qi Mo's worries grew.

In this life, because Gu Cheng and I deliberately provoked them, perhaps the two of them could have talked it out earlier, but this bomb would also likely explode.

Qi Mo thought of the small treasury he had saved because he did not pay the penalty for breach of contract. He didn't know if all his savings would be enough to buy some shares. As long as he could buy 5%, he could at least help Pei Ma and Yu An keep the company.

The only difficulty lies in how to negotiate with Yu An’s mother and get her to sell 5%.

Qi Mo thought very clearly. He didn't intend to go against Yu An's mother. He just wanted an opportunity. As long as Yu An could always stand firmly with Pei Ma, they would not be left with nothing. He hoped that the 5% he bought now could become their confidence.

"Boss, I know this sounds a bit strange, but could you discuss this with your mother? I'd like to buy 5% of the shares. The price is up to your aunt to set! I'll do my best to match it."

"Ah? You want shares?" Yu An wasn't stupid. He was just used to not worrying in front of Pei Si, but that didn't mean he wouldn't worry in front of others. "It's not difficult for my mom to sell shares, but I want to know why."

Qi Mo wanted to express his guess, but no matter what, Yu An's mother was also Yu An's relative. She did this for her son's sake. And what if he guessed wrong or Yu An and Pei's mother didn't get together in this life, then if he spoke out now, he would be a mean person and would also sow discord between the mother and son.

Qi Mo couldn't make up his mind for a moment.

Gu Cheng suddenly spoke up from the side, "Yu An, Qi Mo and I have been in the company for almost two years. Mengqi has the highest traffic right now, and we're going to be on a Douyin variety show soon. I think it's not too much to ask for some dry shares given our combined turnover, right? Besides, we're not taking it for nothing. We just want to buy 5%, so Qi Mo and I can each get 2.5%."

"This..." Yu An hesitated. He knew everything Gu Cheng said, and he knew that the two of them had contributed greatly to Meng Qi's success. But he couldn't just give away some of his shares just because a singer became famous, right? Would he still want to keep his company? That didn't make sense.

Seeing Yu An's hesitation, Gu Cheng didn't get anxious. Instead, he pulled Qi Mo's hand over and placed it in his palm. He looked at Qi Mo and said, "You also know the situation of my family. If the matter between Qi Mo and me is really exposed one day, you can probably guess what they will do. I want to leave myself a way out."

When Qi Mo heard this, his eyes slowly drooped.

Yes, he was still worried about others. He and Gu Cheng had to face the same things. Even now, from what Gu Cheng said, his family was completely unacceptable.

It seems that Gu Cheng and I really should work hard and not just date every day. Now I have to use my little money to buy insurance for Pei Ma, and Gu Cheng’s little money to buy an apartment.

Pei Ma is right. Since they cannot completely separate themselves from society, enough money is the basis of independence. Love without material things is a mess!

Just when Qi Mo decided to make some money, Yu An finally said, "Leave this matter to me. The price is 5% off the market price. You can go to the law firm to sign the contract by next week at the latest."

The two of them couldn't help but look at Yu An.

Yu An laughed. He agreed not for anything else but to leave a way out for the two people on the opposite side. Doing so seemed to be leaving a way out for himself as well.

At least he hoped that if possible, if he encountered the same thing one day, someone would be able to provide him with a way out.

"My mother dotes on me very much. I can make the decision on this little matter myself. If it really doesn't work out, it's the same if I give you my shares."

"no the same!"

"no the same!"

Qi Mo and Gu Cheng shouted at the same time, this is totally different?!

If it was Yu An's own shares, it would mean nothing to them and would not change anything.

"No, forget it. I'll just ask my mom to go to the law firm with me."

Qi Mo took a deep breath in fear, fortunately Yu An did not ask any further questions this time.

After the deal was settled, Qi Mo and Gu Cheng were ready to leave. Unexpectedly, as soon as Qi Mo stood up, Yu An pounced on him. Qi Mo couldn't stand firmly and was pressed down on the sofa by Yu An's shoulders. Yu An's whole body was pressing on Qi Mo, and Gu Cheng's face turned dark.

"Let go!"

"no!"

Qi Mo felt extremely awkward and uncomfortable all over, especially at this moment, Yu An made him feel aggressive, which was something he didn't feel from him in Pei Ma's office.

Without a word, Gu Cheng used one hand to pull Yu An away, and then protected Qi Mo firmly behind him. He said coldly, "If you touch me again, don't blame me for being rude! I'm a judo black belt!"

Qi Mo rubbed his shoulders and looked at Gu Cheng's back in shock.

Gu Cheng is usually gentle and looks like a well-educated person. In his previous life, he had never heard anyone say anything bad about Gu Cheng. In this life, the first time he saw Gu Cheng's defense break down was when they kissed for the first time.

Unexpectedly, not long after, I heard him swearing!

It's so funny, it's both "fuck" and "little master's", very Beijing flavor, so funny.

But this wasn't the time to tease Gu Cheng. Qi Mo stood up, patted Gu Cheng, poked his head out from behind him, and said to Yu An, "Boss Yu An, do you remember what I said? There's no love between people with the same number, so we still have to keep a little distance between us, don't you think?"

After being pulled away by Gu Cheng, Yu An realized that he was impulsive again. After Qi Mo said that, he also realized that his posture just now was not very good and was quite offensive.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. You know I don't understand anything when I meet Pei Pei. I just want to ask how I can make Pei Pei not angry. Xiao Momo, for the sake of our recent cooperation, please help me. You have such a good relationship with Pei Pei now, I know you must have a way."

Before Qi Mo could even open his mouth, Gu Cheng quickly put on a hat and a mask and sent him out of the office.

"Wait a minute, I'll talk to him."
