The Aftermath of Having Slept with the Villain
Chapter 120: Childhood sweetheart as ex-husband(09)World Five. Childhood sweetheart as ex-husband(09)
The appearance of Gao Changze successfully broke the strange atmosphere between the two.
"It's nothing, President Xi may have misunderstood something."
"Misunderstood?" Gao Changze furrowed his eyebrows. "What's the misunderstanding?"
"It's nothing, it's been solved." Xue Xue said, turning her head and smiling at Xi Lang. "You said yes, President Xi?"
Xi Lang didn't speak.
Gao Changze knew that Xue Ning and Xi Lang once had a marriage. Although Xue Ning said that she had let go of it, Xi Lang didn't seem like a man who would get tangled up, but seeing this, Gao Changze roughly knew what would happen in the near future.
But he would not meddle in the private affairs of the two.
"Come in."
"Yes."Xue Xue pulled up her hair, ignored Xi Lang, and followed Gao Changze into the office directly.
Gao Changze recently established an affordable brand.
Specializing in the fast fashion of students and bourgeoisie, he first tested the waters on the Internet with "low-cost price, high-quality" silver jewelry. At present, the response on major social media was not bad. Gao Changze also planned to cooperate with physical stores. One of the selected partners was the store of Xi Lang's family.
When Mr. Xi and Chairman Xi Quan was in charge, the store of Xi's family leaned closer to a traditional supermarket. Even though the store was built earlier and the location was good but the efficiency was not high. After the development of the Internet, the businesses were affected and many stores were closed until Xi Lang slowly took over the reform.
Xi Lang planned to turn all the downtown stores into complex stores, with the establishment of a food street and the introduction of trendy brands as the two main directions. After multiple contatcs, it was in line with Gao Changze's goal of promoting an affordable brand.
After the relevant departments at the bottom had discussed and formulated the cooperation plan and the investment letters, the two bosses made the final confirmation and signing.
Therefore, Xue Ning and Xi Lang met quite often these days.
"Since there is no problem, then…" Gao Changze extended his hand to Xi Lang. "I wish us a happy cooperation."
"Happy cooperation." Xi Lang shook back, and the smile on his face seemed very sincere. "Thank you President Gao for giving me this face."
"Haha, you are too modest."
Putting aside everything else, in terms of career, Gao Changze admired Xi lang very much.
In his opinion, the most valuable thing about young people is their hard work and drive, which was how he came to be. Although it was different from Xi Lang's choice to take over the family business, he feels a bit sympathetic to each other.
After the two chatted a few more times, the phone on Gao Changze's desk rang.
The conversation was in French.
"It's the design team that the company has always wanted to hire." After hanging up, Gao Changze smiled apologetically to Xi Lang. "I'm sorry, I originally wanted to invite you to lunch to celebrate."
"It's okay, you are busy, there is no rush for the celebration. I will ask the secretary to make a reservation when the time comes."
Xi Lang waved his hand to show that he didn't mind.
It was time for the two to say goodbye.
But Xi Lang didn't look like he was about to leave.
Gao Changze's doubts were soon answered.
"Xue Ning… Will Assistant Xue go with you too?"
Xue Xue, who was suddenly named, raised her head abruptly.
"No, I will bring another assistant, Xue Ning has already…" Gao Changze suddenly realized. "You…"
"Then I'll trouble Special Assistant Xue to give me a ride."
Xi Lang smiled, his tone sounded relaxed but unquestionable.
"Get in the car."
Xue Xue didn't move, just stood two steps away and looked at Xi Lang coldly.
The two stood silently until Xue Xue spoke.
"What do you want to do?"
"Do what?" Xi Lang raised his eyebrows, and his eyes were very clear. "I just wanted to invite you to a meal."
"Meal? In what status?" It seemed that he did not expect Xue Xue to ask such a rhetorical question. Xi Lang was stunned. Seeing his appearance, Xue Xue raised the corner of her lips even higher. "Xi Lang, don't forget that we are divorced."
The frequently mentioned word "divorce" made Xi Lang clenched his right hand on his side into a fist tightly.
"Is there anyone who stipulates that they can't have lunch together after a divorce?"
"Of course not." Xue Xue crossed her arms and looked at Xi Lang with a sharp look that he had never seen before, as if she could look into his heart that he was having a hard time understanding his own. "But Xi Lang, with all due respect, your behavior will make me think that you will never forget our old relationship."
Xue Xue said, and suddenly took a step forward.
Before Xi Lang could react, her plain white fingers held the burgundy tie that the man was wearing.
There is a simple pattern, which was low-key and very suitable for Xi Lang.
"Why…"
Xue Xue said softly, gently pulling the tie and the unsuspecting man staggered and leaned forward.
"Does President Xi really want to rekindle the old love after sleeping with me?"
Hearing this, Xi Lang's body froze.
The undisguised sarcasm in Xue Xue's words made Xi Lang, who was inexplicably flustered, to subconsciously stretch his hand forward and push her away.
"Ah!"
Unpreparedly, she lost her balance and sprained the ankle in high heels.
The pain rushed through the limbs and bones, making Xue Xue's sharp eyebrows softened suddenly, and a thin bead of water even leaked from the corner of her eye, hanging on the long lower eyelashes. It looked extremely charming as it tempts to fall down.
"I'm sorry, I…"
Xi Lang wanted to help her but his big palm was slapped off.
The sound of "pap" seemed to be magnified countless times in the silent basement parking lot, and the eardrums of the shocked people tingled.
"Don't make me look down on you, Xi Lang." Although Xue Xue's voice was low, it fell into the man's ear with exceptional clarity. "Remember what you said back then?"
