The intelligence department of Xu Corporation was extremely capable.
Basically, any information they wanted to investigate could be obtained quickly.
After all, they had hired world-class talent with high salaries to work for them.
In the conference room, Xu Mo was feeling anxious and restless.
He believed that soon, his subordinates would surely follow the trail and uncover the irregularities of Hongtu.
Then they would come in and report everything to him.
Under everyone's watchful eyes.
Even if he was the antagonist, even if he wanted the protagonist to face a setback.
He couldn't possibly jump into a pit knowing it was right in front of him.
Antagonists aren't truly brainless.
Without some intelligence, the readers wouldn't buy it.
The author's setup was to make the plot seem reasonable, conforming to the standards of face-slapping stories.
Bang-------
The sound of a bottle cap being popped open rang out.
Xu Mo came back to his senses and saw the she-devil opening his treasured champagne, pouring the liquor into two flutes without a care.
Under Xu Mo's surprised gaze, Zhou Qiaoqiao walked over with a smile, holding the glasses, and offered one to him.
"Care for a drink?"
"You're in the mood to drink?"
Xu Mo asked reflexively, looking at the glass.
Zhou Qiaoqiao smiled coyly, "Why wouldn't I be in the mood? I helped you recover over a hundred billion in funds, shouldn't you be thanking me?"
"Other people do business hoping to make more money, darling, do you do business intending to lose money?"
Xu Mo realized his earlier slip of the tongue and put on a slight smile.
"Not at all, you saved the Xu family from an unwarranted disaster, I can't thank you enough!"
[Zhou Qiaoqiao, I 'sincerely' thank your whole family!]
"Oh, and don't call me darling, it sounds sappy, and you're only my fiancée, not my wife yet!" Xu Mo added.
Zhou Qiaoqiao gently swirled the glass in her hand and said softly,
"And you say you're thanking me."
"There's no sincerity at all, is a man's gratitude just empty words?"
Her tone, her actions, her demeanor....
She was the very picture of a long-suffering wife.
Just as Zhou Qiaoqiao said.
In business, everyone hopes to make money, not lose it.
The amount of funds Zhou Qiaoqiao had recovered this time was substantial.
Xu Mo's reaction was too bland.
Neither happy nor sad.
As if nothing had happened.
This was very much out of character.
Xu Mo forced a smile, "Miss Zhou, what do you want me to do?"
"First, call me 'honey' and let me hear it." Zhou Qiaoqiao smiled.
"Don't push it!" Xu Mo's face turned cold.
[I want to call you that too, but my sycophant character setting won't allow it]
Zhou Qiaoqiao's smile became more playful, her heart sweeter than honey.
The role Xu Mo was currently playing didn't allow him to say these things.
This was his bottom line.
Zhou Qiaoqiao now knew this point.
So she didn't continue to insist on this aspect.
"Drink this glass of champagne, my hand is getting sore from holding it."
Zhou Qiaoqiao changed her condition.
Xu Mo nodded, he could accept this condition.
As he took the champagne.
The she-devil's fair and slender fingers grazed Xu Mo's hand.
Like a little kitten toying with one's heart.
Xu Mo's hand holding the champagne trembled slightly, taken aback, but fortunately, the drink didn't spill.
"After you finish this glass of champagne, you can go."
This life's she-devil wasn't playing by the usual rules.
Xu Mo was having trouble handling it!
In the later stages, the protagonist Lin Fan was toyed with by the blackened Zhou Qiaoqiao.
Dragon King Hall suffered a heavy blow.
It was enough to see that Zhou Qiaoqiao wasn't as simple as she appeared on the surface.
[Zhou Qiaoqiao, you're not right, you're very not right!]
[After sending you away, I need to make new plans, if I don't acquire Hongtu, how will Lin Fan have a chance to show off and face-slap?]
[Ah... it's all because of this damned dog-shit plot]
"Ding, congratulations host, personal power +1"
"I can't leave when there's a failed investment plan involving hundreds of billions, don't forget, the Zhou family's funds are included in this as well."
Zhou Qiaoqiao finished speaking and drained her glass in one gulp.
She poured herself another glass without asking.
She had intended to refill Xu Mo's as well.
Xu Mo, somewhat irritated, didn't accept at first, but then thinking that this champagne was expensive and his personal property.
It would be a waste not to drink it, so he extended his glass back.
Zhou Qiaoqiao just smiled without saying much, and dutifully filled Xu Mo's glass.
Knock knock knock--------
A series of knocks sounded from outside the conference room door.
"Come in!" Zhou Qiaoqiao called out.
Xu Mo now looked like he didn't want to deal with anyone, sitting there questioning his life choices.
So Zhou Qiaoqiao spoke up.
The person who entered was Li Ming.
At this moment, Li Ming was covered in sweat, his face pale, walking unsteadily, and speaking with a stutter.
"Mr. Xu, Ms. Zhou, we... we have the results."
Although Zhou Qiaoqiao knew the truth would be the same as what Xu Mo had said.
But before the facts were confirmed.
She couldn't help feeling a bit uneasy in her heart.
After all, she wasn't Xu Mo, who had personally lived through the entire novel's plot.
However, seeing Li Ming's current state of disarray and extreme timidity.
Zhou Qiaoqiao's heart leaped with joy, it seemed like everything was set.
Her pretty face turned cold, her eyes flashing with a chilling light, "I hear you calling me Ms. Zhou, and not Madam, pack your things and leave today."
Xu Corporation offered annual salaries and benefits three times that of their industry peers.
Their reputation was also first-class in the industry.
Li Ming didn't want to lose this job, his eyes seeking help from Xu Mo, only to find that Xu Mo wasn't even looking at him.
"Ma... Madam." Li Ming thought Xu Mo had tacitly agreed.
He was dead either way.
The issue with Hongtu Real Estate was discovered by Zhou Qiaoqiao.
She deserved the due respect.
Zhou Qiaoqiao nodded with satisfaction, "Out with it!"
Li Ming, mustering his courage, said: "Hongtu Real Estate indeed has problems, completely consistent with the information you obtained!"
