Sudden change

  Even if it's not necessary to be shaken, one should still have a clear head. The mobile phone's first launch address: While Yu Tian and I both understand that my brain is at most an empty shell that doesn't look bad, there's no inner substance inside.

  On this point, Lin Jing and I are of the same opinion, but as soon as he showed a dissenting expression, Yu Tian arranged a large amount of work for him. I couldn't bear to see Lin Jing's miserable appearance, so I slipped away quickly.

  At noon at 12 o'clock, Yu Tian and I arrived at the agreed club on time. The private room was not small, but as soon as the door closed, I felt particularly awkward. We were together in a room again. I looked around the room to distract myself, while Yu Tian flipped through the materials and explained some things that needed attention.

  Our company's main business is acting as an agent for some foreign brands to sell in the Chinese online market, and we get a certain profit from it. This time, the negotiation object is one of the top B2C e-commerce companies in China, and today's purpose is to sign next year's contract.

  I pretended to listen and roughly understood that today's negotiation shouldn't take much time or difficulty, Yu Tian just needed a prop, and I was the only person in the entire company whose existence or non-existence didn't matter, bringing me out wouldn't affect the normal operation of other things.

  When the other party's person pushed the door open, I felt that something was wrong. Yu Tian brought a small assistant with no knowledge of law, while the other party brought a legal counsel. And the reason I knew he was a lawyer at first glance was because he was Lin Yue.

  Lin Yue was also surprised to see me here, my expression a bit awkward, not knowing whether I should call out to him. Fortunately, Lin Yue first said to their leader, "Director Zhou, this is my sister, Si Xi."

  The man known as Director Zhou stretched out his hand towards me, but was subtly blocked by Yu Tian. Director Zhou could only awkwardly laugh and say, "We're all on the same side here, so let's get down to business."

  I took advantage of the opportunity to hide beside Lin Yue.

  Yu Tian's gaze also shifted to me and Lin Yue. In fact, the two of them had never formally met, but I'm sure they must have seen each other before - I remember a few times when Yu Tian sent me home on weekends and I happened to run into Lin Yue who was also on his way back home. Only that Lin Yue didn't even bother to acknowledge me, let alone Yu Tian.

  I thought of the other party bringing Lin Yue over, and something might have gone wrong, so I hastily pulled out the contract. "Director Zhou, let's confirm..."

  The pleasant atmosphere in the private room came to an abrupt end, I believe Yu Tian also saw that there was a problem, but he helped Zhou Zong pull over a chair as if nothing had happened, then took over the menu and started introducing dishes, until the table was full of food, he didn't mention the contract at all.

  I gave Lin Yue several meaningful glances, hoping he could reveal something to me, but he was as calm and collected as Yu Tian, completely ignoring me.

  I had eaten half of my rice when I started to feel unwell, and my stomach began to ache again. It was throbbing, and as someone who is not good at enduring pain, the dress that Yu Tian gave me was too skimpy. Not only did I feel uncomfortable, but I also felt cold, and soon a layer of cold sweat broke out on my forehead.

  Lin Yue, sitting opposite me, was the first to notice. He put down his chopsticks and looked at me tensely, "Xi, what's wrong?"

  Yu Tian also turned his face back.

  "It's okay, I'm fine..." I waved my hand weakly, with a pained and twisted expression, mixed with a hint of innocence.
