The next day, less than five minutes after Qiu Yan sat down at the office, a cup of fragrant freshly ground coffee was handed to his desk as usual.

"Didn't you say that drinking too much coffee is not good for my health?" the president looked up at his secretary.

"Yes, but coffee isn't poison either. Even if it is a drug, if the poisoning is too deep, it will take time to quit! In the future, I will lock all the coffee in my cupboard, and I am the only one who has the key. ”

After speaking, she smiled at Qiu Yan, and then left without waiting for Qiu Yan to say a word.

Qiu Yan glared fiercely at the back of this little woman, and then glanced at the coffee in front of him, and there was a smile on his face that was rare for subordinates in the office.

He did love coffee, but when he was in the office, he didn't like coffee as much as he does now, and it was after she came that he became more and more addicted. This woman's mind is frighteningly delicate, and after a few coffee mixes, she has a good grasp of her own tastes and preferences. Therefore, the coffee she concocted made him feel addicted.

Half an hour later, Zhou Caiyue knocked on his door.

"This is a gift I prepared for Chairman Cheng of Cathay Group. When I met Cheng Dong two months ago, I heard him say that he loved to play Go. Although this endgame book is not the original of the ancient book, it is also a high-level ancient book. The most rare thing is that there are handwritten comments and ways to break the game by several major players in China, Japan and South Korea. In today's world, I am afraid that this kind of chess game is also the only one. I'm sure Chairman Cheng will like it!"

Qiu Yan looked at the small gift on the table, carefully wrapped in plain silk, and was really a little surprised.

He thought that the gift she had prepared for today's important meeting would be nothing more than some expensive supplements, or more interesting crafts or something, but he didn't expect it to be such a thing.

"How did you get this thing?"

"It just happened to be. ”

Qiu Yan stared at her, and then she said with some hesitation: "It was a birthday gift from one of my teachers when I was ten years old! He himself is a well-known Go player, because he also likes to play chess, he taught me a few times. ”

Qiu Yan's expression stared at Zhou Caiyue and changed slightly.

"Today's meeting, you go with me!"

Zhou Caiyue looked completely confused, "However, I didn't prepare anything." ”

"You don't need to prepare, you just need to play a game of chess with Cheng Dong. ”

"Oh, okay, Mr. Qiu!" In a few months, she has developed a skill, that is, to reply to any strange order from the president in the fastest time, "Okay, Mr. Qiu".

As she turned to leave the president's office, the president asked behind her, "Why are you willing to take out such a precious gift?"

She immediately turned around.

"I know that the company attaches great importance to this cooperation with Cathay, and since it is a cooperation, it is natural to express some sincerity. What's more, I have already made a copy of this chess book, and it is not impossible to continue researching it. ”

Although she said it easily, it could be seen that she was actually extremely reluctant in her heart.

"Thank you!" Qiu Yan said with some solemnity.

Zhou Caiyue looked at Qiu Yan with some surprise, even to other executives in the company, she rarely heard him say thank you like this.

"Because of this book?"

"If I say it's because of this game, how much money are you willing to sell it to me?"

Zhou Caiyue smiled when she heard this, and left without speaking.

The meeting with Cheng Dong was indeed very pleasant. When Qiu Yan handed the chess book to Cheng Dong, the expression of surprise on Cheng Dong's face really made Qiu Yan feel that he couldn't iron it in his heart. When Cheng Dong heard that Cai Yue had personally received the guidance of that national player, he said that he had to play a game with Cai Yue before he was willing.

Since Caiyue knew the purpose of Qiu Yan bringing her here, she naturally agreed to fight after some humble words and shirks.

Qiu Yan doesn't study Go too much, so he doesn't understand the offensive and defensive trends on the chessboard. Therefore, when Caiyue and Cheng Dong were talking about the game, he sat on the sidelines, but observed the expressions of the two more.

It was the first time he had observed Caiyue so quietly and for a long time, and it was the first time that Caiyue had sat quietly and let him observe like that.

When Cai Yue lightly sandwiched a chess piece between his index finger and middle finger, frowned slightly, stared at the chessboard and pondered, and then landed the chess piece on the chessboard, the appearance of being calm and calm, and strategizing, really made him feel deeply fascinated. For a moment, he even forgot whether he was here to talk about cooperation or to watch chess.

Cheng Dong's brows kept frowning, and it seemed that this chess game was quite anxious.

In the end, it was Caiyue who wiped the sweat off her forehead, smiled slightly, and threw herself in the towel.

Cheng Dong smiled very happily: "The old man won the thrilling today! At your age, you only lost my eyes, Miss Zhou really deserves to be personally instructed by the national player! Old man, I am really eye-opening today!"

Cai Yue also smiled happily: "This is all Cheng Dong, you don't want me to lose too ugly, and you deliberately let me!"

"Hahaha......"

When the two sides finalized the cooperation matters in a pleasant atmosphere and signed the memorandum of cooperation, Caiyue finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

After sending Dong Dong to the hotel where he stayed, Caiyue took Qiu Yan's car back to the company together.

As soon as he arrived at the car, Cai Yue sat down on the seat of the car like the end of a strong crossbow.

In the past few days, her stomach has been uncomfortable, and it is not good to rest at night. It's not difficult for her to win chess, but the difficult thing is that she can win but lose, and she has to lose beautifully and without making people suspicious.

She endured the stomach pain, pretended to be indifferent on the surface, and persevered until she lost to Cheng Dong by a perfect eye-to-eye difference, and insisted until the two sides finished talking about business cooperation and finally signed the memorandum of cooperation.

"What's wrong with you!

"I'm fine!" she said weakly with her eyes closed, sweat oozing from her forehead again.

Just now, in order not to let people see her weakness, she even kept telling herself in her heart that she must not sweat again. I don't know if it's the result of the extraordinary use of mental thoughts, but she really sweated a little when she threw the child, and the whole process didn't seem to be abnormal.

Qiu Yan didn't look like she was fine, so he asked the driver to park the car on the side of the road.

"What the hell is wrong with you?

"I... Stomach ache!" she finally said.

"How long has it been hurting?" he frowned.

"And Cheng Dong... When I first started playing chess... It hurts!" Cai Yue's forehead was sweating more and more, and she had endured it too hard just now, and as soon as she relaxed, the pain was like a spring rebounding, and the force was extremely fierce.
