The male protagonist of a sweet romance novel went on a killing spree in the world of angst novels.

Chapter 42 Why be hung up on a single blade of grass?

Only after watching Yan Ting's figure disappear down the street did Chen Xiao casually withdraw his gaze from Yan Ting's back.

Immediately, he lowered his eyelids, opened the computer that had been closed, and casually tapped the screen with his slender index finger, revealing a small map.

The location shown on the map is Huayang Street, and there is a red coordinate on it that keeps moving.

About ten minutes later, the red coordinate stopped inside a large shopping mall.

The driver's surname was Huang, and his name was Huang Qi. He finally spoke up: "Chen Meng, this afternoon at 3 o'clock, the Jingzhou headquarters and Yuzhou GM Empire held a shareholders' meeting at Jingzhou International Group."

The purpose of holding this meeting is self-evident.

Generally, only top-level decision-makers at the headquarters of Baiyu Maotang have the authority to convene such large-scale meetings.

The shareholders who can participate in such meetings are not ordinary people; any one of them is a very important figure in society.

For example, investment geniuses, teenage hackers, real estate tycoons, chairmen of well-known groups, and so on.

Everyone was there except for Chen Xiao, which caused some people to be dissatisfied.

But in the end, no one dared to say anything.

After all, he was a legendary figure who had completely wiped out the top management of the Jingzhou headquarters a few years ago.

However, in the past two years, because Chen Xiao has been away from Jingzhou, some people within the organization have begun to lose their ambition and desire, and are thinking of taking advantage of his absence to try to seize his power.

Chen Xiao was well aware of this, and he stated bluntly, "Next time headquarters holds a meeting, we'll find someone to attend in my place. As for those grasshoppers, we don't need to worry about them for now."

His consistent style is to sit firmly on the high platform and quietly watch those clowns presumptuously attempt to seize power right under his nose.

After the spectacle is over, those clowns should be eliminated.

“Okay.” Huang Qi said respectfully, “Chen Meng.”

Chen Xiao placed his hands on his lap, turned his head, and stared at the brightly lit streets outside the car window with his sharp eyes. He said in a calm tone, "You don't need to call me Chen Meng when we're out together."

This title can easily attract some people's attention and cause some unnecessary trouble.

Huang Qi understood instantly and replied immediately, "Okay, then I'll call you General Manager Chen from now on."

……

Do you still like Lu Huai?

Yanting did not answer the question immediately. She lowered her eyes and gently stirred the coffee with her slender fingertips holding a small spoon.

I think she still likes it!

She picked up her coffee, took a sip, and immediately a very bitter taste spread across her taste buds.

But no matter how bitter the pain is, it can't compare to the bitterness in one's heart.

"How can you just let go of someone you've liked for four years?" Yan Ting turned her head to look at the various men and women outside the glass window.

Tan Yi didn't like bitter coffee, so she threw in several milk candies. She followed Yan Ting's gaze and looked out the glass window.

"There are plenty of fish in the sea, why be hung up on just one?"

"Besides, this grass is just foxtail grass, it's not worth it." Tan Yi complained, resting her chin on her hand. "Back then, when you said you liked Lu Huai, I really thought you were possessed by a ghost. I was even thinking of inviting a few masters from Hong Kong to take a look at you." There are many masters in this field in Hong Kong.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ting was both amused and exasperated: "Lu Huai isn't that bad, is he? He's quite popular."

Tan Yi pouted, "You don't understand. I went to the same high school as him. Back then, although he and Gu Qianqiu hadn't officially announced their relationship, they were already a well-known and popular couple in high school."

Upon hearing this, Yan Ting's gaze sharpened slightly. She grasped the key point and asked, "Tan Tan, do you know Gu Qianqiu?"

Tan Yi paused, seemingly lost in some memory. A hint of dazedness flashed in her bright, foxy eyes. She said in a slightly lonely tone, "We're not close, but I really hate her."

Yan Ting keenly sensed that Tan Yi's mood was a little off when she mentioned Gu Qianqiu. She said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Tan Tan, I shouldn't have asked you that. If you're unhappy, let's not talk about her."

To everyone's surprise, Tan Yi shrugged and said nonchalantly, "It's nothing, it's all in the past anyway, there's nothing I can't say."

"This sounds pretty dramatic," Tan Yi said, tilting her head to look at the coffee in front of her. "I had a boyfriend in high school, but he cheated on me."

She didn't say who she was having an affair with, but Yanting guessed it.

It's Gu Qianqiu.
