Chapter 49: You Get What You Deserve
Zhou Ling smiled apologetically, “Mr. Lu, Mr. Gao, please don’t be angry at my wife who offended you unknowingly. We are trying to have a meal here today. Peace brings prosperity. I hope that you two can pretend that this incident didn’t happen. Don’t let it affect your lunch.”
Zhou Ziqing gazed at Ye Buyu painfully.
Everything she said now belittled him.
She wouldn’t even look at him.
Once upon a time, he was everything in Ye Buyu’s eyes.
He regretted it.
He should not have succumbed to Ye Xin’s seduction.
He was feeling upset when he saw Gao Lang who was standing beside Ye Buyu.
Gao Lang, who was looking at Zhou Ling, suddenly felt that he looked familiar. He didn’t need a while to remember who he was.
“Oh, it’s you, Mr. Zhou. I seem to remember that your company wants to bid for one of my company’s projects…”
Zhou Ling was elated, “Yes, yes, yes. It is Project 105.”
Gao Lang smiled. He then waved, “You people don’t have to bid anymore. I will never collaborate with you. Just for the fact that your daughter-in-law made me unhappy today.”
Zhou Ling suffocated. His face turned ashen.
He and Ye Hao had invested a great deal for Project 105, even calling upon numerous favors. This was the foundation for them to stand firm in Beijing. They were already so close to getting that project.
But with this little detail, we….
Zhou Ling couldn’t believe it.
“Mr. Gao. You mustn’t do that. Our company has spent a lot of time and energy on this project. We want to make sure that it’s perfect. Every segment is already done. What’s left is just signing the contract. We will not disappoint you.”
Gao Lang sneered. His eyes turned icy.
“Which part of ‘I will never collaborate with you’ did you not understand?”
Ye Buyu, who was beside him, smiled.
I didn’t expect Gao Lang to be so firm!
She then looked at Zhou Ling’s face. He would absolutely feel the heat if he lost this project, right?
Zhou Ling didn’t expect to be met with such a disaster when he had only gone out for lunch. He finally set his gaze on Ye Buyu and whispered, “Buyu, I have seen you grow since you were a child. You still have to call me Uncle Zhou when all is said and done. I have treated you decently too. I know that Little Xin offended you when she talked earlier. Your aunt was also a bit rash. Please don’t be angry. I’ll apologize to you here. Please persuade your boyfriend. This project is just too important for me.”
Ye Buyu pouted.
If she were to be honest, Zhou Ling couldn’t be counted as kind or unkind.
He wasn’t wrong when he said that he had seen her grow since she was a child.
He had always maintained a neutral stance on Zhou Ziqing’s matter.
It was Tang Yunwei who stirred up all kinds of trouble in that matter.
She wasn’t really angry at Zhou Ling.
Besides, she didn’t need to be too pedantic on some things.
Ye Buyu’s gaze relaxed.
However, it was at this time that Tang Yunwei suddenly spoke. She even ordered Ye Buyu, “Ye Buyu, don’t try to settle your private grudge with official matters. I am warning you, if you dare to pull anything and make use lose this project, you can forget about even speaking to my son after this! You should know how despicable you are!”
Zhou Ling was horrified.
“Yunwei!”
Ye Buyu suddenly lost interest in standing up for Zhou Ling.
She shrugged, “I have nothing to do with this matter. I’m not a participant in your companies’ matters! I’m hungry! Let’s go eat!”
She turned around and went inside after she said that.
