As a villain who transmigrated, all I want is to survive.

No, he must be out of his mind.

Ye Aotian's mind was filled with only one thought: What's going on? What kind of tricks does Mu Qingfeng have?

Wasn't Mu Qingfeng very arrogant before?

Don't you always look down on him?

Today, his attitude completely changed 720 degrees.

Could it be that they were deliberately trying to curry favor because of the jadeite vein they just saw?

He was lost in thought when Su Xueyi stomped her foot, stood up, and sat on the other side, angrily saying, "Mu Qingfeng! Don't just push any man onto me!"

Mu Qingfeng lightly slapped herself, on the verge of tears: "Grandma, what do I have to do to satisfy you?"

Su Xueyi didn't reply, but simply turned her head slightly.

Seeing the interaction between the two, Ye Aotian felt even more uneasy. Su Xueyi's attitude towards Mu Qingfeng was very different from before.

He became even more convinced that this was a scheme by Mu Qingfeng to win over Su Xueyi. Mu Qingfeng deliberately treated him very well and even tried to match him with Su Xueyi, so as to make Su Xueyi feel rebellious.

Ye Aotian immediately interjected, "Chairman Mu, are you interested in the jadeite vein I just mentioned?"

A jade vein? Would the protagonist really give such a good thing away to someone else? And this person is the main villain in the eyes of the protagonist, Mu Qingfeng.

Impossible, absolutely impossible, there must be something fishy going on here.

Even if it were true, who is he to deserve the protagonist's things?

“Mr. Ye, our company doesn’t mainly deal in jadeite. But it’s different for you. Your company is currently promoting jadeite jewelry, so you can make good use of this jadeite vein yourself.” Mu Qingfeng said with a forced smile.

Mu Qingfeng immediately offered Ye Aotian a cigar, but he refused and didn't seem to care.

Ye Aotian secretly clenched his fingers. Sure enough, Mu Qingfeng was still paying close attention to the state of Aotian Group. He even knew that they had recently been promoting jade jewelry. The fox's tail had finally been revealed.

However, he wouldn't allow anyone to know the true situation of the vein mine; Mu Qingfeng couldn't possibly know that it was now just an empty shell.

He's being so hypocritical; he doesn't actually want the vein ore. He's just putting on a show for Su Xueyi to display his so-called powerful family aura!

Mu Qingfeng had no idea that this person had so many hidden thoughts. She smiled and brewed tea, pouring it for the two people in front of her.

"Hey, you guys should try my tea. Although I used to be uneducated, my tea-brewing skills are top-notch."

This is a technique he learned by playing villains for ten lifetimes.

Su Xueyi brought over the freshly brewed tea, took a small sip, and her eyes lit up slightly. She didn't know he had this skill before; it seemed she didn't know Mu Qingfeng that well.

Ye Aotian was now focused on tricking Mu Qingfeng and didn't notice Su Xueyi's expression.

“Chairman Mu, actually our company has already planned to enter other industries, and jade is not what I want to do most. Although this vein of mine has indeed made me quite profitable, I want to focus on the products I love most. But your Mu family is different. The Mu family's industrial chain is very large, and it's not that we don't have jade at all.”

He clapped his hands, clenched his fists, and said excitedly, "Believe me, this vein of mine can only be fully utilized by your Mu family and Fengming Company! This vein of mine will definitely help Fengming Company reach new heights and even become a unique entity in the entire business world."

Mu Qingfeng's lips twitched. Although he was the villain, the protagonist wouldn't treat him like a fool, would he? If he was really so eager to promote that jade vein, wouldn't he be keeping it a secret?

He slammed his hand on the table, startling Su Xueyi across from him. Mu Qingfeng immediately put on a fawning smile.

"It's such a waste for Mr. Ye to give me such a good vein of ore! What is our Fengming Company? We were just a kid in the day. How can we compare to your Aotian Group? Besides, I don't want to become a legend in the business world. I just want to live a life of leisure and do nothing. You are the future business genius."

Mu Qingfeng picked up the teacup on the table. "Mr. Ye, I'll offer this tea in place of wine to wish you continued success in your future career. Not only will the mine be yours, but Miss Su will also be with you for a long and happy life. Everything that's yours will be yours."

Ye Aotian was stunned! What kind of performance was this?

Given Mu Qingfeng's personality, he would get carried away by praise and would have happily bought the vein of ore long ago.

Moreover, Mu Qingfeng was always called a spoiled rich kid who accomplished nothing, but now he is told that he may become a business prodigy in the future, yet he remains unmoved.

Didn't he used to want to marry Xueyi? How come he doesn't even want Xueyi now, and is even pushing her towards him?

Where exactly did things go wrong? Ye Aotian was seething with hatred. How come everything was different from his previous life?

Su Xueyi stood up and slapped Mu Qingfeng and Ye Aotian once each.

"I, Su Xueyi, am not some object to be pushed around by you!" Su Xueyi pinched Ye Aotian's chin, looking down at him.

She turned to look at Ye Aotian, "And you, don't even dream that I'll be with you. I don't know what your purpose is today, or whether you came with me. Stay away from me from now on."

Both of them were stunned by Su Xueyi's attack. Mu Qingfeng cursed the other's parents in his heart, but dared not say it out loud.

He tried to rub his face, but then realized his chin was being pinched, so he gave up.

"Mu Qingfeng, you'd better give me a reasonable explanation today. Why were you pestering me the day before yesterday, even trying to force me to marry you, and then suddenly changed your tune these past two days? Are you retaliating against me for not agreeing to marry you? Are you satisfied now?" Su Xueyi felt more and more aggrieved as she spoke, her eyes filled with tears.

"I……"

dong dong dong.

The knocking sound had never sounded so pleasant to Mu Qingfeng's ears. He struggled to get up, quickly rubbed his chin, and opened the door.

Liu Qianqian stood outside the door, holding a document in her hands.

"Qianqian! You've come at the perfect time, you saved my life." Mu Qingfeng gave Liu Qianqian a thumbs-up with a tearful expression.

Seeing the red mark on her boss's face, Liu Qianqian was stunned. Why did this reception room feel like a battlefield?

"Um, Chairman, Secretary Liu asked me to come and deliver a document for you to sign. She said it's urgent," Liu Qianqian said in a low voice.

Upon hearing that Secretary Liu had called for help, Mu Qingfeng mentally gave him a thumbs up. As expected of his personal secretary of many years, he actually knew to call someone to save the day.

But why did they call Qianqian, that little girl, over?

Mu Qingfeng looked at Liu Qianqian with a sinister smile, thinking, "Secretary Liu is so sensible."

He took the document from Liu Qianqian's hand and said, "Qianqian, come in first. I need to take a closer look at this document."

"Oh, okay, Chairman." Liu Qianqian smiled and nodded.

She has two beautiful dimples when she smiles.

"There's no one else from the company here, so you don't need to call me Chairman," Mu Qingfeng said gently, looking at her.
