A month later, coffee shop.
It's April now, the south wind warms the windows, everything revives, the branches outside the window are vying to emerge, and it's full of green.
Gu Zichu looked at the clock, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, half an hour had passed since the time he and the man agreed.
Another ten minutes passed, and the warm latte had already turned cold. When Gu Zichu was impatiently preparing to leave, the wind chime on the door of the cafe finally rang with the wind.
Gu Zichu stared at the person who came with a dull look. The person had red hair, a black punk dress, cool lip nails, and his face was more arrogant and domineering than before.
Pei Xuan threw a brown document on the table, chewed gum in his mouth, and sat down with his legs crossed. When he saw Gu Zichu pushing another brown document to him, blowing bubble gum, he sneered.
"Is it worth it? Gu Zichu, for Pei Ye you can give up the project you have been working on for three months."
Gu Zichu just took a sip of the hot latte that the waiter served again, and said calmly, "Pei Xuan, we are just in a relationship of interest, you are too lenient."
The pink bubble gum that Pei Xuan blew burst instantly. He seemed to have not heard and said to himself.
"As far as I know, this project is the largest project you have completed since you managed Gu Corporation. The income from this subsequent project is far greater than the value of the 10% share of Pei Corporation."
Gu Zichu gently rubbed the document between his fingers, sighed and said, "Pei Xuan, what exactly do you want to say?"
Pei Xuan's careless expression gradually became unsustainable under Gu Zichu's silent gaze. He grabbed Gu Zichu's wrist and said reluctantly with red eyes.
"Zichu, I... is it impossible for us? We obviously had such a good relationship before, but..."
Gu Zichu interrupted him, looked directly into the eyes that had made him feel soft Pei Xuan countless times, and told him firmly.
"We have no chance. It doesn't matter if this project is gone. I can still do it. But the 10% share of Pei Corporation was left to him by Pei Ye's father.
Your father has no right to occupy it, I must get it back for Pei Ye, and he has the final say on how to deal with it."
Pei Xuan skillfully put away his aggrieved expression, showed an uninhibited smile again, looked at the empty table in front of him, and said jokingly.
"What? I've helped you so much and you don't want to buy me a cup of coffee?"
Gu Zichu glanced at him, put down the coffee, and spoke in a business-like tone.
"It's just mutual benefit. If you want to prove your ability to your dad and officially take over Pei Corporation, it must be a big project. As for coffee, you should not be short of money for a cup of coffee."
"If you don't want to ask, don't ask. I'll buy it myself."
Pei Xuan greeted the waiter and ordered a latte that was the same as Gu Zichu's. Then he crossed his long legs casually on the table and looked through the documents Gu Zichu handed him in boredom, astonished.
"Tsk, Gu Zichu, you are really an honest person. You don't have any secrets about the project. I can see how much effort you have spent in the past three months."
Gu Zichu frowned slightly and looked at the document that Pei Xuan brought. His face became darker and darker. The document was not Share Transfer Agreement at all. He shot sharp eyes at Pei Xuan.
"Pei Xuan, are you kidding me?"
Pei Xuan looked at him with a nasty smile, "Gu Zichu, you are still as easy to deceive as ever.
It was like this before, you were always teased by me, but you didn't get angry, and you smiled at me indulgently. You said it's great that you've always been like this."
Gu Zichu ignored his memories of the past, adjusted his glasses, and calmly took out a stack of photos from his briefcase and pushed them over.
"Pei Xuan, you don't want these photos to be seen by Uncle Pei, right? You said that Uncle Pei knows what you did, will he still give Pei Corporation to you?"
Pei Xuan picked up the photo and became more and more frightened as he looked at it. The photo was of him having sex with other men in the past few months.
Pei Zheng is a very traditional and macho man. If he knew that Pei Xuan now likes men, he would even have sex with them.
Not only would they not give Pei Corporation to him, they would kick him out of the house and even send him to a mental hospital.
"Gu Zichu, are you investigating me? You're also looking for someone to take my C-photo, hahahahahaha."
Pei Xuan glared at Gu Zichu, then threw the photo in front of Gu Zichu, laughing more and more viciously.
"Don't you feel disgusted? Hmm? The men I'm holding under me in the photo all look like you."
Gu Zichu subconsciously touched the silver ring on the ring finger of his left hand, thinking that Pei Ye said that he would make rice noodles and pork for him tonight, with soft potatoes steamed underneath, and he felt inexplicably better.
"You are only allowed to treat me as a talking point when chatting with your bad friends, you are only allowed to break your promises and give me a blank document, and you are not allowed to subconsciously guard against you and join your army instead?"
Gu Zichu shrugged his shoulders indifferently, with an elegant and easy-going smile hanging on his lips.
"You also said that you just look like me, but after all, it's not the real me. I have a partner. You should be familiar with him. His name is Pei Ye, and he is your blood-related brother-in-law."
When Pei Xuan heard this, the veins on his forehead popped out in anger and he clenched his fists tightly. He knew that Gu Zichu was deliberately irritating him, but he was helpless against Gu Zichu.
"Are you so heartless to me? Zichu, I came to your company to look for you before, why didn't you want to see me? I used to be able to come in and out at will Gu Corporation!"
Gu Zichu knows Pei Xuan too well. In the past, he was soft-hearted to him because he liked Pei Xuan. Once he lets go of Pei Xuan, he is a profit-seeking businessman after all.
"To avoid suspicion, I don't want Brother Ye to misunderstand. Your current status does not qualify you to come in and out at will. Gu Corporation, Pei Xuan. I don't have that much time to spend with you here. Share Transfer Agreement, give it to me."
Gu Zichu saw Pei Xuan's eyes were red, with tears welling up in his eyes. He clenched his fists and stood there unmoved, and just reminded him loudly.
"I still have a backup of these photos, Pei Xuan. I know you and you know me. You should know that you don't have the capital to make me be soft-hearted to you again."
Pei Xuan bit his lips, tilted his head to wipe the tears that overflowed from the corners of his eyes, and threw away the Share Transfer Agreement hidden in his arms unwillingly.
Pei Xuan watched as Gu Zichu took over Share Transfer Agreement like a treasure and confirmed the validity and authenticity of the document.
The beautiful Peach Blossom Eyes curved up in an instant, then carefully put Share Transfer Agreement into the briefcase, and finally turned around and left without mercy.
Pei Xuan The person whom I have been thinking about for several months turned around and left without giving him a single thought.
Pei Xuan's throat was sore and choked, and she couldn't help shouting to stop him, "Gu Zichu! Zichu, don't leave! I won't let you leave!"
"Why can't you give me another chance? Everyone makes mistakes. Why are you so unfeeling to me? Zichu..."
Pei Xuan's eyes were wide open as he looked out the window at Pei Ye, who was standing next to the car in a black coat, and hugged Gu Zichu, who was smiling and running towards him.
