"…
" Mubai was at a loss for words.
"You should take a look at it now because if there's any issues, we can discuss them now. Furthermore, I believe you're the one actually running the company.
"
nXinghe blinked. He was right.
nSince there was time, they might as well do it now.
nXinghe sat back down and started to flip through the document slowly.
nMubai picked up a cup of tea and studied Xinghe closely through the cover of his cup. His feelings were complicated.
nHe didn't expect Xinghe to undergo such a drastic change.
nIt was akin to how those superheroes' family members felt when they learnt of his or her true identity.
nAnd this happened with his ex-wife… Any man would be shocked beyond belief if they were put in his shoes.
nNeedless to say, Mubai received his fair share of shock, but he didn't regret having the divorce with Xinghe because this gave him the chance to get to know this whole new her…
nRegarding the past, he shared the same sentiment as Xinghe, a dream that was not particularly memorable.
nHowever, from this moment onwards, he would not ignore this woman anymore.
nHe wanted to get to know her again.
nMubai set his cup down and reminded kindly,
"Take your time, you can ask me if there's anything bothering you.
"
nXinghe suddenly raised her head.
"The profit of this partnership is spilt four-six?
"
nMubai nodded.
"That’s right. Of course, if you think that's too little, we can settle for five-five.
"
n
"No, seven-three.
"
nMubai blinked confusedly before asking,
"Seven-three? You seven, I three?
"
nHe though Xinghe was unsatisfied with how the profit ratio was split. To his surprise, she shook her head, saying,
"No, I three, you seven.
"
nMubai was confused.
"Why?
"
nThis was the first time he saw someone willingly offer to take a worse deal.
n
"As a thank you for your help this time,
" Xinghe explained softly.
nSo that was why…
nMubai gazed deeper into Xinghe’s eyes, saying,
"You don't need to thank me. You're Lin Lin's mom, I'm supposed to help you.
"
n
"That's not true. We're divorced. I have nothing to do with you. Therefore, you're under no obligation to help me.
"
nThis statement irked Mubai for some reasons.
nBut he was careful not let it show on his face. He continued naturally,
"Then consider it my compensation to you. After all, you didn't take the alimony.
"
n
"Alright, then stick with the four-six ratio. Tomorrow, CEO Xiao will come and find you to sign the contract. I have something else to attend to, thank you for the meeting,
" Xinghe concluded crisply and stood up to leave.
nMubai asked,
"You've finished reading the contract?
"
n
"Yes.
" Xinghe replied without turning her head as she headed towards the exit. She refused to waste one more second there.
nIt was as if she treated business deals like gaming missions, take an objective, finish objective, and acquire next objective.
nSocial ettiquettes like post-meeting tea, small talk, or golfing trips were unessential to her.
nMubai couldn't help but wonder whether this woman even knewn the basics of doing business in Hwa Xia.
nMubai felt weirdly suffocated talking business with such a mechanical woman.
nObviously, Xinghe didn't think her way of doing business was in any way wrong.
nAs long as the parties involved were in agreement about the business deal then why waste time doing anything else?
nOn their way back home, Xia Zhi and Xiao Mo stared amazed at her when she said the partnership had been discussed and dealt with.
