All kinds of speculation, all kinds of conspiracy theories, all kinds of insults are coming. There are those who scold the prince, and there are even more who scold Cinderella. But to sum up, there are more people who scold Cinderella.

Since ancient times, there has been no good thing to say about scolding women, and all kinds of national scolding have gathered together, as ugly as they are, and they are extremely insulting.

At this moment, Cinderella, who was scolded by everyone for being incomplete, was soaking in the spa of the Yansha Hall with her eyes closed.

In just a few months, the various life and death catastrophes experienced by herself and her loved ones made her heart scarred and almost numb. Now she often has indifference and coldness in her eyes.

This kind of coldness is very different from the feeling she used to give people that "you can only look at it from a distance and not touch it". This is a kind of indifference from the bottom of the heart, a kind of indifference where kindness is buried after the heart is tightly wrapped in hatred, and it is a kind of tough self-protection that is taken when everyone ruthlessly speculates and abuses.

Cai Yue did not choose to appeal, because judging from the evidence currently available, it is impossible to convict Xiao Tian. Moreover, Caiyue knew that it would be more difficult to find new evidence to prove that Xiao Tian had something to do with her mother's death.

Lying on the spa bed, her phone rang again. Glancing at the caller ID, the corners of her mouth hooked up with a sneer.

"Mr. Chu, do you have any advice?" her voice carried a hint of banter.

In the mobile phone, Chu Mingzhu's voice did not have a trace of heat, "Regarding Mingyao's business restructuring, I need to meet with you." When do you have time?"

The banter in Caiyue's voice became a little stronger, "I have time now." Isn't Chu always going to be able to come over right now?"

Chu Mingzhu didn't get angry because of this obvious banter, but still said coldly: "I don't have time now." Tomorrow at five o'clock in the afternoon, is that okay?"

She had to fly from the capital thousands of miles away to the city, and of course she couldn't arrange it too tightly in terms of schedule.

Cai Yue owed on the spa bed, and her voice became a little lazy: "Of course, you have set the time, and the location will be determined by me, which is in the Yansha Guild Hall, how about it?"

"Okay, just do as you say. ”

Chu Mingzhu didn't say another nonsense, and hung up the phone directly. If it weren't for Xiao Tian being in this city, she wouldn't be so accommodating to Caiyue. She said come over and come over?

When Xiao Tian received Chu Mingzhu's call, he was sitting in the study of his villa.

Mingyao has been successfully acquired for nearly two months, and the Chu family and Tianrui have already come up with a preliminary plan for the business reorganization, and the preparations of all parties are slowly in place, so he can't delay it any longer, and he must talk to Caiyue about this matter face-to-face.

At the beginning, Yuntian and Jurui International each invested 50% of the shares to establish Tianrui Company, which is mainly committed to the research and development and application of high-tech materials.

This time, Xiao Tian's original plan was for Blue Leaf Capital, which he controlled, to swallow Mingyao's equity in the name of Chu's family, and then ostensibly let Mingyao launch a large-scale cooperation with Tianrui Company in the identity of Chu's identity. This will also be another pillar of Yuntian Group's next stage in addition to real estate.

But Ades unbelievably transferred all his equity to Caiyue, originally he and Chu Mingzhu teamed up to deal with Ades, but now it has become that he and Chu Mingzhu want to face Caiyue and sing this show.

Although Blue Leaf Capital did not appear in Mingyao's list of shareholders, Xiao Tian guessed that with Caiyue's cleverness, she was afraid that she would have guessed that he was actually Mingyao's current behind-the-scenes shareholder. With Caiyue's existing hatred for him at the moment, when he and Chu Mingzhu appeared in front of Caiyue tomorrow with the same position, Xiao Tian really couldn't imagine what kind of situation it would be? That would undoubtedly confirm his betrayal of her, right?

However, this matter was no longer his personal matter, and he could not allow Cai Yue to disrupt the original agreement between him and the Chu clan because of his own selfishness.

What to do?

Xiao Tian was distressed and confused! He had smoked two cigars in a row, hiding himself in the fog.

Yansha Hall is not like Yinqiao Clubhouse, Yinqiao is mainly a man's world, and Yansha is a woman's paradise. The wide range of beauty and fitness services here is specially tailored for women.

I don't sleep well during this time, so I often come here for beauty. In the past, she didn't do this at all, because she didn't need it, and she didn't have time. But now, she often needs a professional massage from a beautician to get a good night's sleep.

At about five o'clock in the afternoon, Cai Yue went to the hall in advance to do facial and whole body maintenance, and then let herself sit in a tea room in the hall radiantly, waiting for Chu Mingzhu's arrival.

She wasn't sure who she would meet at this meeting today.

As the equity recipient of Ades, Mingyao's senior management naturally has a different attitude towards her than towards Chu. The Chu clan belongs to the invasion of foreign enemies, and Cai Yue can be regarded as the trustee of the old owner. has always been a son of heaven and a courtier, and if Mingyao's executives want to keep their high-paying positions, they naturally have to rely on Caiyue's side.

Previously, Mingyao's senior management had reported to her a series of actions of the Chu family towards Mingyao, and it was not surprising that she saw Xiao Tian's shadow in Chu's actions.

At 4:58, the waiter of the clubhouse knocked on the door of the tea room, and Chu Mingzhu appeared in front of her, along with Xiao Tian and Qiu Yan.

After Mingyao changed its new owner, the first thing it did was to put forward a strategic cooperation plan with Tianrui Company. As one of Tianrui's two bosses, Qiu Yan is indeed not absent from today's meeting. But like Xiao Tian, he was very difficult about his position.

Jury International Asia Pacific, like Yuntian, is a comprehensive group company with multiple businesses in operation at the same time. It stands to reason that Qiu Yan is the boss of Tianrui, and he naturally hopes that Tianrui can establish a highly intimate cooperative relationship with a company like Mingyao, which has long focused on the research and development of software and high-tech materials, so as to strengthen the company's development in this emerging field. But he knew that the current Caiyue would never agree to this cooperation plan, because of the existence of Xiao Tian in it.

When Cai Yue saw the people who came in, she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart.

Once upon a time, she thought that the three of them would be a good story, but now it is like this. The two men who had been the closest to her were now on opposite sides of her. To be exact, she herself chose to stand on their side.

She quickly pressed all her emotions and stood up, making a slight "please" movement with her hand.

"You guys, please be seated!"

The waiter is professionally performing a series of classic tea ceremony movements such as warming and washing cups for several people. The four of them sat in front of the tea bottle, and they didn't say much, just silently watched the waiter's every move, thinking about their own thoughts.

Soon, a burst of tea fragrance wafted into his nose, and the waiter pointed to the teacup with his fingers together and said "please". Only then did the four of them raise the tea and taste the first cup.

Caiyue said to the waiter, "We'll do it ourselves", and the waiter left.

"Mr. Chu, today's meeting was initiated by you, should you be the first to speak out about today's meeting?" Cai Yue looked at Chu Mingzhu, she wanted to know how Chu Mingzhu would explain Xiao Tian and Qiu Yan's presence.

Chu Mingzhu smiled, it was the kind of kind and confident smile that is very common for people in the shopping mall.

"Miss Zhou, as a new shareholder of Mingyao, I need to propose a new plan for Mingyao's future development. In this plan, Tianrui will become the most important partner of Mingyao in the future. Therefore, I asked two shareholders of Tianrui to talk about this plan, these two shareholders are also very familiar to you, you don't need me to introduce them, right?"

Caiyue smiled.

Of course, it needs no introduction. I think that at the beginning, Tianrui Company was established by her own matchmaking of Xiao Tian and Qiu Yan.

"Mr. Chu, can you give me a reason to cooperate with Tianrui Company? Don't tell me that the set in the plan is useless for me. I admit that there is no such good thing in this world as a monopoly forever, but Mingyao has always done a good job in the research and development and application of high-tech materials, so why let Tianrui step in?"

Chu Mingzhu also smiled.

"Miss Zhou, it is precisely because of Mingyao's special status in this field that the Chu family is willing to buy its equity. As a shareholder of Mingyao, I hope that Mingyao will have a bright future in the long run, and the cooperation with Tianrui is the best way to build this future. I don't need to say too much about the strength of Yuntian and Jurui International, joining forces and complementing each other's advantages is the unanimous choice for all cooperation and strong ones. ”

Cai Yue quickly took over the conversation and responded-for-tat.

"Of course, it is not wrong to join forces and complement each other's advantages, but it also depends on what kind of strong method and how to supplement it. I have already read the cooperation plan proposed by the Chu family, and I don't think that such cooperation is fair to Mingyao. To put it more bluntly, I don't think there is a need for Mingyao and Tianrui to cooperate, at least not at the moment.

The R&D of high-tech materials is not about scale, but about the strength of technology and capital. Mingyao's current management level is barely able to deal with the current scale, and I don't think it's a good thing to let Tianrui get involved at this time. ”

Qiu Yan listened quietly to Caiyue's words on the side.

He admits that Caiyue's words make sense. In the field of high-tech material research and development, Tianrui needs Mingyao, and indeed more than Mingyao needs Tianrui. Although companies and companies want to cooperate more, this cooperation is indeed based on the strength and resources of both parties.

Especially for a super-large-scale high-tech company like Mingyao, the management level is indeed a weakness that restricts its development, and blindly expanding is indeed not a good thing, and it needs to be done carefully.

However, this is only from the position of Mingyao.

For Xiao Tian, Qiu Yan and Chu Mingzhu, they all have their own different positions and angles, so for the same matter of cooperation, their views on interests are naturally different.
