"Of course, she's not happy about it. However, although she's my potential client, I don't have to spoil her either. I mean it when I said I won't let her sit."

"Today is not the first day she used her family business as a threat. I can compromise for other things, but if it's related to you, there's no discussion," said Jiang Huaizhou.

"I already said back then that I would rather abandon this business deal than obey her," said Jiang Huaizhou, "In the end, she still won't be able to do anything to me."

"Then what about this time? Is she just bluffing again?" Dong Yujie had a hint of hope.

"I'm afraid this time it's real." Jiang Huaizhou smiled. "Besides, I brought it up this time. Their family wants to save face, so they definitely won't come and beg me, right?"

"Since I brought it up, they will let me see," guessed Jiang Huaizhou.

"Besides, I wasn't really lying. As long as Qu Mengyu stops pestering me, I will still profit even if I lost this business deal."

"Then… losing the Qu Family's business deal has a big effect on the company, right?" At least, that was what Qu Mengyu said.

Regarding this, Dong Yujie chose to believe Qu Mengyu's words.

"It has a certain effect, but it's still alright." Jiang Huaizhou held her hand. "After all, I even managed to use the money you gave me to start a company from nothing in a short year. I won't fall down with just that."

"The business deal with the Qu Family is still being discussed with both sides negotiating terms. I can't accept the conditions that Qu Xiangqian mentioned. To me, if we partner up based on his conditions, it will do more harm than good to me."

"But he didn't accept my conditions," said Jiang Huaizhou, "He didn't accept even after I had compromised."

"To him, I probably have a weak foundation. He's definitely underestimating me. He has already planned to take my company for the Qu Family."

"So I've had enough of the Qu Family. The matter with Qu Mengyu just sped up my decision."

"I was just thinking about whether I should partner up with them or not. Fortunately, Qu Mengyu helped me make a decision."

"Without the Qu Family, I can just find others to collaborate with. It's not like there's only the Qu Family. After getting rid of the Qu Family, I will be happy as if I had just sealed an incredibly expensive business deal," said Jiang Huaizhou, smiling.

The two talked the whole way back to Mrs. Dong's residence.

Dong Yujie had the key in her hand.

When she unlocked the door, Mrs. Dong heard the sound and quickly went over to the entrance.

Without waiting for Dong Yujie to push the door open, Mrs. Dong opened the door first.

She saw Dong Yujie and Jiang Huaizhou standing at the entrance.

They looked like a golden couple, a match made in heaven.Mrs. Dong truly felt that the two were more suitable as a couple!

"Come in!" Mrs. Dong smiled and hurried the two to enter.

"You said that you would come back with Huaizhou, so I've already prepared. I went to get more groceries from the market. The ingredients are all ready, all that's left is to cook them. It won't be long, so wait for a bit." After Mrs. Dong said that, she immediately went to the kitchen.

Then she shouted to Dong Yujie, "Yujie, I've boiled the water, make some tea for Huaizhou."

"Take it easy, we're about to eat." Jiang Huaizhou stopped Dong Yujie.

Mrs. Dong raised her eyebrows and said to Jiang Huaizhou, "D-do you feel sorry for her?"

Jiang Huaizhou didn't know what to say.

If he said that he was sorry, it would be like he was unhappy that Mrs. Dong asked Dong Yujie to do work.

However, if he said that he was not sorry, this would mean that he did not care about Dong Yujie.

It was a dead-end.

He did not know that Mrs. Dong was this terrifying.

Today was the first time he came as Dong Yujie's boyfriend, and he was already met with such a difficult question.

Jiang Huaizhou, who had never felt terrified in the business world, had encountered the biggest danger in his life.

"Drinking some tea will clear your stomach, so your appetite will be better later," said Dong Yujie.action

Mrs. Dong gave Jiang Huaizhou a glance and continue to cook dinner.

Jiang Huaizhou finally let out a sigh of relief, then whispered to Dong Yujie, "It's okay, go and sit down. It's too cramped for three people to stand in the kitchen."

As she talked, she pulled Jiang Huaizhou to the living room to sit down.

Dong Yujie came back to the kitchen to make tea.

Mrs. Dong said, "I didn't expect Huaizhou to be so capable. He convinced you in one day."

Embarrassed, Dong Yujie smiled and said, "I already like him, too. I just didn't dare to make the decision. His words made me determined."

Dong Yujie looked at Mrs. Dong. "I believe him."

"I believe him too," said Mrs. Dong, smiling, "I won't be rest assured if you get together with anyone else. It's only if you're together with Huaizhou that my heart will feel safe."

Dong Yujie understood what Mrs. Dong meant.

"Mom, I will come back to help you after sending the tea over," said Dong Yujie.

"It's fine, go and spend time with him," said Mrs. Dong, smiling, "It's not a huge load of work here. I just need to fry the ingredients accordingly."

Dong Yujie carried the tray and walked over.

"Should I go help Mom?" said Jiang Huaizhou when she came.

"Mom won't let us add to the mess," said Dong Yujie, "Don't even think about it."

This was a place that Jiang Huaizhou had lived in for a while. Even after Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Dong divorced, he still came here often.

But now, because Dong Yujie was here, Jiang Huaizhou felt like the home had changed.

It had become more refreshing.

"Do you still live in the same room as last time?" asked Jiang Huaizhou.

"Yeah, the things in my room are all ready, so I don't have to tidy up again." Dong Yujie nodded.

"Should I go take a look?" Jiang Huaizhou looked at Dong Yujie anxiously.

"What's there to look at in my room? It's simple, a little boring even," said Dong Yujie, "Besides, haven't you entered my room before?"

"We were still young back then, so it doesn't count," said Jiang Huaizhou, "Since I came out, we two had to avoid suspicion."

Especially with Mr. Jiang watching.

There was no need to talk about it after Jiang Huaizhou came out.

Even when the two reached puberty, Mr. Jiang started watching.

So from then on, the two avoided entering each other's rooms.

It must be said that the pressure given by Mr. Jiang was a little too much.

"So I haven't looked at your room in detail before," said Jiang Huaizhou.

And now he did not live here anymore, so Jiang Huaizhou lost this privilege.

"Fine." Dong Yujie smiled as she nodded. "Follow me."

The house was not big, so there was no need to follow Dong Yujie. Jiang Huaizhou also knew where her room was located.

The two came to the door of Dong Yujie's room.

The door was closed by Mrs. Dong when she was cleaning the house during the day.

Dong Yujie opened the door. When Jiang Huaizhou entered, he was immediately hit with the unique smell of girls.
