Chapter 216 The Company Would Reimburse
Su Jin woke up in Xi Chenxiao’s arms. Hearing what Xi Shi just said, she rubbed her eyes and wrote on Xi Chenxiao’s sturdy chest with her finger,
“I can walk on my own. Let me down.” Seeing that Su Jin had woken up, Xi Chenxiao glared at Xi Shi with warning filled in his eyes before putting Su Jin down. Xi Shi had woken up Little Mute, making him unable to carry his wife. When they got back, he must teach Xi Shi a good lesson.
Twenty minutes later, Xi Chenxiao led Su Jin and others to a business hotel that was specially used for business meetings. When he saw that Su Jin was still in a daze, he instructed Xi Tian,
“Xi Tian, take her to the room and let her rest. And send me her room number later.”
Xi Tian nodded and left with Su Jin. Then, Xi Chenxiao motioned to Xi Shi and the others to follow him for the business meeting about cooperation. Everyone followed behind him respectfully. This time, they were going to cooperate with the Max family, an old and famous family in Melacia. This family had a deep background in Melacia and had powerful business strength. If they wanted to open up the market here, they would definitely work with a family like this.
The Max family sent Merlin, the eldest daughter, and Randall, the eldest son, to discuss the cooperation details with Xi Chenxiao. It showed that the Max family also attached great importance to it. After about three hours of negotiation, the two sides had reached an initial agreement.
Merlin had shown great interest in Xi Chenxiao. Even though Xi Chenxiao was expressionless during the meeting, Merlin still chose to invite him to the party that their family would be hosting that night. After a long flight and a long meeting, Xi Chenxiao was exhausted. He rubbed his temples before calling Xi Tian. After getting the room number from Xi Tian, he said to Xi Shi and the others behind him,
“Everyone, thank you for your hard work.”
“Xi Shi, I’ll leave the rest of things to you.”
Then, Xi Chenxiao stood up and left. Right now, he only wanted to stay with Little Mute as soon as possible. Somehow, he would feel much more relaxed as long as he was with her, no matter how tired he had been. After Xi Chenxiao left, Xi Shi said to the others,
“You have been working hard and tired these days. Go get some rest! If You’re hungry, order food as much as you want. The company will reimburse all your expenses.”
Hearing what Xi Shi said, everyone immediately clapped their hands happily. After all, things were not cheap in Melacia. If they really had to pay out of their own pockets, they might not be willing to eat much good food. Now that the company would reimburse, they immediately began to discuss what they were going to eat. “The company is so great! I can’t believe it’s going to pay for it all!”
“Exactly. I heard that the red wine here is quite good, but it’s pricy.”
“That’s right. But let’s order some. We can celebrate the success of the negotiation.”
…
Xi Chenxiao returned to his presidential suite. Just as he was about to take a good rest, he found out that Su Jin was sneaking out. He immediately frowned. Could Little Mute have any friends or relatives here? He asked curiously, “Where are you going?”
Hearing Xi Chenxiao’s voice, Su Jin was stunned at first. She quickly thought of an excuse, then she touched her stomach and said silently with her lips, “It’s late. I’m a little hungry. I heard that the barbecue here is good. I want to try some.”
It was just getting dark, which was a perfect time for some barbecue. Xi Chenxiao was worried about her being alone, but he did not want others to stay with Su Jin. After thinking for a moment, he held her hand and said calmly,
“Alright, I’ll go with you and try some too.”
Then, he took the elevator and went downstairs together with Su Jin. As her hand was held by Xi Chenxiao, Su Jin’s heartbeat unconsciously sped up. Her mind was blank, but she felt very safe. Su Jin’s face blushed as she followed Xi Chenxiao out of the hotel.
It was a stretch of beach across from the hotel. As soon as Su Jin came out and was blown by the cold sea breeze, she felt her mind get much clearer. Looking at the bustling stalls not far away, Su Jin said quietly,
“Thank you.”
Xi Chenxiao glanced at Su Jin indifferently, then his gaze shifted to Su Jin’s chest. He had never forgotten about the phone. He was only busy with the negotiation with the Max family, so he had not mentioned it. Now that he was done, he had to verify if his thought was true.
