Chapter 307: Cooperating Once Again
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At this moment, a table of guests upstairs left, so s.h.i.+ Xiao and Li Ci sat in this booth.
The two of them ordered wine, but didn’t take a single sip.
Not only didn’t they drink, but the two of them didn’t speak either. They just sat there quietly as they watched the dance floor.
Sitting here, a sudden sense of familiarity overcame them.
The two people who were very influential in A City’s business world had negotiated their first collaboration at this place.
At that time, they were drinking at the bar in the center of the stage. The music on the stage was deafening, but s.h.i.+ Xiao and Li Ci remembered everything they said clearly.
The environment was noisy, but s.h.i.+ Xiao still heard Li Ci’s words clearly. “s.h.i.+ Xiao, I have a political background and you have influence in the business world. Why don’t the two of us work together? We can definitely make our mark in A City!”
As it turned out, the two of them did what they said.
They were once high-spirited youths, but now, they had already developed into their own factions. With the pa.s.sage of time, their changes happened too fast, so much so that they had long forgotten their original intentions.
This time, when they sat here again, they were far less unbridled than before. Now, every step they took was cautious and careful. They could no longer trust the other party with their backs.
s.h.i.+ Xiao said, “I can turn a blind eye to what you’ve done behind my back all these years, but there’s something 1 have to know.”
Of course, Li Ci knew what he was asking about. He stared at s.h.i.+ Xiao’s dark eyes as he said seriously, “I didn’t partic.i.p.ate in what happened to you and Yuan Shu that night! Although we’ve only been working together for the past few years, I’m sure of one thing. I won’t work with Jiang Chen. My sister and brother-in-law are both in politics, so I can’t be a.s.sociated with the underworld. That’s my principle.”
s.h.i.+ Xiao was finally relieved.
He didn’t know what Li Ci had done behind his back, but he couldn’t tolerate Li Ci betraying him by cooperating with Jiang Chen.
If Li Ci cooperated with Jiang Chen despite his position, it would mean that he had already given up his principle. If a person could give up his bottom line, then sooner or later, he would also give up their long-standing cooperation.
If he cooperated with such a person, he would only be causing trouble for himself.
After confirming that Li Ci hadn’t changed after so many years, s.h.i.+ Xiao finally said with relief, “We can work together, but you have to show me your sincerity.”
Li Ci said, “I believe you’ve already investigated the faction behind me very clearly. If you want to see my sincerity, Zhao Tian is my greatest show of sincerity. Since he became your amba.s.sador, I guarantee that nothing will happen. Is this sincere enough?”
The brand’s spokesperson represented the image of the entire website. If something happened to the spokesperson, the first to be affected would definitely be s.h.i.+ Xiao’s video-sharing website.
This was also a problem that both Yuan Shu and s.h.i.+ Xiao were worried about. At that time, Yuan Shu suggested that they find another spokesperson as a backup, so that if anything happened to Zhao Tian, they could make up for it in time.
Therefore, Li Ci’s guarantee was very important.
In the end, s.h.i.+ Xiao requested, “But there’s one more thing I want you to promise me. You can’t make a move on Yuan Shu again.”
Li Ci frowned slightly and said, “Whether you believe it or not, I didn’t do anything to Yuan Shu. Someone else was behind it. Even though Yuan Shu and I don’t see eye to eye and can’t continue to be friends, I admire her very much and definitely won’t harm her.”
The more Li Ci spoke, the more serious she became. “The more Yuan Shu shows off her talent, the more she will attract the attention of other people. Therefore, the person who hurt her was never anyone else, but you.”
Li Ci was right. s.h.i.+ Xiao was the cause of everything, so he could only do his best to protect Yuan Shu.
This was also the reason he agreed to divorce Yuan Shu. As long as he broke off his relations.h.i.+p with Yuan Shu, those who wanted to harm s.h.i.+ Xiao would pay less attention to her. In that case, she might suffer less.
Since it wasn’t Li Ci or Jiang Chen who had harmed Yuan Shu, who could it be?
What was that person’s goal?
At this moment, s.h.i.+ Xiao couldn’t help but think of what Yuan Shu had said. “An enemy in the open isn’t scary. The foe in the dark is the most nerve-racking..”
