Chapter 60: One Step Back

Perhaps, my uncle has long forgotten about me as a passerby, and I have long been tired of hearing the so-called "will contact me" kind of falsehoods. This night, even if I drank alone, I could get drunk, and in the end, I walked down the railing next to the overpass by myself drunk, and slowly went back to my rental house, like a wounded wolf, even if I was injured, I had to go back to my wolf's den to heal myself.

......

The next day, I came back to the company according to the normal working hours, and as soon as I entered, I heard some employees whispering about the quarrel I had with Qi Min yesterday, but when they saw me appear, they were all silent. I didn't bother to pay attention to them, and went straight to my office.

During this whole day of work, I spent almost all my time thinking about what I should do to reach a consensus with Qi Min, at this juncture, we really can't have any more "civil strife", otherwise some villains will take advantage of it. Qi Min's office and I were separated by a wall during the whole day's work hours, but none of us talked to anyone, which was the only "strange" phenomenon that has occurred on the first day since we founded the company. It wasn't until the end of the day that I finally saw Qi Min walk out of his office, but he also glanced at my office coldly, and still left the company indifferently, which made things even worse.

Whether it's me or Qi Min's side, we basically want to give each other's investment customers an answer today, I don't know if Qi Min has signed the contract sent by Cangyun Capital, and he doesn't know if I agreed to Han Qingxiao's shareholding contract, all of which are unknowns caused by cold violence.

I just watched Qi Min leave the company, but I stayed in a daze until more than seven o'clock in the evening, because I felt that my stomach couldn't stand it, so I left the company and went out to find a restaurant to eat.

I ate this meal very slowly, it was already nine o'clock after eating, and I wanted to drink some more like last night, but I had to drive back, so I dismissed this idea. I started the car and walked home, and just as I was about to get back, I got a call on my phone, it was...... Xu Mengjun's call to me?!

I clicked on the amplifier to answer the phone, smiled and said, "Hello, Mrs. Xu, why did you suddenly remember to call me?"

"Yo, listening to your tone, it looks like you're in a good mood, I thought you were about to eat **!"

She obviously had something to say, probably because she already knew about the quarrel between me and Qi Min yesterday, and after she choked on a sentence, I exhaled and said, "How do I think you have something in your words?"

Xu Mengjun's tone became serious, "Okay, don't pretend, where are you?"

I said, "Not long after eating, I'm on my way home, what's the matter, I'm going to report my whereabouts to you now, right?"

"Turn around and go to the sports center, I'm waiting for you there now, and you'll be there in twenty minutes. ”

"Huh, what?" I thought I had misheard.

"What nonsense, hurry up, if I don't see you in twenty minutes, then we won't have to meet again. This domineering spirit is really the same as back then, and after speaking, he hung up the phone directly, and didn't even give me a chance to refute.

I thought about it, decided to listen to her, and turned around and headed for the sports center. About ten minutes later, I arrived at my destination, got out of the car, looked around, and soon saw a big-bellied Xu Mengjun on a bench not far ahead.

Walking up to her, I said cautiously: "It's really difficult for you, you still have to run out to meet me, if Qi Min knows that you came out to meet me at this time, why don't you chase me with a knife?"

"Sit. Xu Mengjun put her stomach with one hand, raised her other hand, and motioned for me to sit next to her.

I was stunned for a while, sat down, and went straight to the point and said, "I know, you came to me for Qi Min's affairs, you say, I'm ready to be criticized." ”

Xu Mengjun saw that I looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, "I'm not here to scold you, otherwise it wouldn't be meaningless to come to you tonight." She paused, and then said: "You and Qi Min both got the opportunity to raise funds in the same morning, on the one hand, the well-known domestic investment institution Cangyun Capital, on the other hand, the advertising industry's 'first brother' CDH Group, the two of you will quarrel is actually normal, speaking of which, this is the first time you have had a dispute since you started a business together, these are all trivial things, choose to start a business together, it is a common thing to have a quarrel, we will solve the problem if we encounter it, it doesn't matter." ”

I sighed and said in a lost tone: "If only it were as easy as you said, Qi Min is stubborn to death, and I can see that he is really angry this time." ”

Xu Mengjun smiled lightly and said, "Don't be discouraged in a hurry, problems are used to solve, if I hadn't been prepared, I wouldn't have come to you at this time." She took out a folded piece of paper from the inside pocket of her coat and handed it to me, "Hmm, take it." ”

"What is it?" I took it, and it still had her residual body temperature, and you can imagine how important it was to her. I opened the thing and looked at it, the words "equity transfer contract" on the title were particularly obvious, and when I saw the signature at the bottom, it was Xu Mengjun's signature, and the blank on the other side, which meant to transfer her shares to me, but where did she get the shares? I didn't know about it at all.

Xu Mengjun gave an explanation in my doubts: "Not long after I was pregnant, Qi Min secretly transferred 5% of his shares to me, I know that your budget for this financing is to contribute 5% of the shares, and my 5% can just make up for it, so that there will be no dispute between you, it is useless for me to keep this share, a pregnant woman, stay at home all the year round, and take money if she doesn't work, which is unfair to everyone." ”

I was silent for a while, and finally handed the contract back to her, and said resolutely: "No, this is a gift from Qi Min, it can't be used as a victim of the quarrel between the two of us, I believe that Qi Min will not agree to it, this point, we maintain a consistent attitude." ”

Xu Mengjun showed a very helpless and impatient expression, "Cheng Ting, emotionally I have seen your frustration, I couldn't help you at that time, but we have known each other since we first went to college, for several years, as friends, I really don't want to see you fall in your career again, I came to you without Qi Min coming to you for this matter, as long as you sign, I will solve the rest of the things, he won't do anything to me, you don't want to be stubborn, okay?" In the end, Xu Mengjun almost spoke to me in a pleading manner.

I thought about it again and again, and finally reserved my attitude: "I still say the same thing, I don't agree, feelings are feelings, career is career, if every time I encounter a setback, someone comes to help me, just like you just said, this is unfair to everyone, if you let Qi Min know about this matter, do you think his heart can be comfortable? No! It will only become more sad and sad!"

She turned her head to look away, sighed, and said in a tone of loss and disappointment: "Forget it, since it doesn't make sense to you, then I'll tell Qi Min face to face, about feelings, whether it's love or friendship, it's just as important to me, I won't take sides, I just hope that things can be resolved." ”

After Xu Mengjun finished speaking, one hand covered her big belly, and the other hand propped up on the chair, I hurriedly helped her, slowed down and said, "I'll send you back, anyway, it's really hard for you tonight, and you shouldn't get involved in the career between us, at least not at this time." ”

"Don't forget, I'm also a shareholder, and I have the power to participate in the company's decision-making. ”

This night, in the end, Xu Mengjun still asked me to send her back to the residence, fortunately, Qi Min didn't know about it, otherwise, the conflict between us would only be more agitated, and before I left, I also said that I asked Xu Mengjun not to tell Qi Min about tonight's events, but she just looked at me deeply, didn't say anything else, and just turned around and went into the community.

......

After I returned to my residence, it was already more than eleven o'clock, I was thinking about taking a shower and planning to lie down, but I thought that Qi Min and I both promised to reply to the investor within today, although Han Qingxiao did not give me a clear time, but after today, I guess he will not think about cooperating with us anymore. At the thought of this, I felt completely sleepy, so I sat on the sofa and silently lit a cigarette.

After smoking a cigarette, just as I was about to go back to my room to sleep, Qi Min sent me a message: "Let's take a step back and stop embarrassing everyone." ”
