"You …" Zeng Yi was so angry that he could have stomped his feet. He didn't expect Shen Mo Chen to be so merciless and unrivalled when it came to being a scoundrel. "Cissy has matters to attend to and has no time to you. If you want to wait for her, then just wait for yourself."

After saying that, Zeng Yi walked out of the door with his high heels. She was too lazy to waste any more time with Shen Mo Chen.

Before he could open the door, the heavy wooden door of the meeting room was opened by someone from outside. Seeing the person who opened the door, a trace of shock appeared on Zeng Yi's face. "Xissy, why have you come?"

She wanted to reduce the chances of Liuxi meeting Shen Jingchen. She didn't expect Liuxi to come to the company on her own.

"I just happened to have some business with the company. I heard that CEO Shen is here, so I came to take a look." As he spoke, he walked over to the conference table, not saying anything about the secretary's call to her.

Zeng Yi was also a smart person. He knew that Liuxi would avoid this man, so how could he run into him?

She shifted her gaze to her secretary. When she saw the guilty look on her secretary's face, she already knew the whole story.

She glared at the trembling secretary and scolded her in a low voice, "You don't know anything, you'll only do me a disservice."

Zeng Yi wanted to reach out to stop him, but it was already too late.

"I wonder what business CEO Shen has by calling me by my name?" She sat down right across from him and looked into his eyes, not dodging at all.

Shen kept his eyes on Liu Xide's wrist. There was a watch there, covering the wound on Liu Xiya's hand, so he couldn't see how Liu Xixi's hand was recovering.

Liu Xixi noticed the man's probing gaze and retracted her hand. Her expression did not change until Shen Jingbin whispered, "Business …"

"I feel that my company's people have the ability to negotiate with you. I still have things to do, so I won't involve myself with Zhiyuan Group anymore." Liu Xixi knew that if she continued like this, it would only continue endlessly.

At the moment Liu Xi left the meeting room, Shen Mo Chen shifted his gaze to Liu Xi's delicate back. "If you were to take a step out, the contract would be annulled."

This man, what else could he do but threaten?

A smirk formed on her face as she looked at Shen Mo Chen, returning to her seat, "Then let's have a good talk now."

When Shen Jingchen heard this, he signaled his assistant to place the documents in front of Liu Xixi. Liu Xixi picked up the documents and unhurriedly skimmed through them. Since she didn't want to waste her time, since Shen Jingchen wanted to play with her, she might as well sit down and play.

After a long while, Liu Xiya closed the document, his eyes filled with doubts. "The terms in here make the design profitable, don't tell me CEO Shen doesn't feel the slightest bit of heartache?"

If he really signed this contract, over time, Liuxi believed that the design would definitely be able to open a new breakthrough in the country, and in one fell swoop, he would become the leading figure in the industry.

Shen Jingchen chuckled, "Of course, Zhiyuan Group doesn't care about these investments at all. "However, I have a condition …"

Zeng Yi sat beside Liu Xixi. She had read through the document just now and was wondering why Shen Jingchen would suddenly come to the decision to help Yisui. She didn't expect him to be waiting here to set up a trap for them.

"No need, Chief Shen should look for another partner." No need, Chief Shen should look for another partner. Zeng Yi didn't want the Liuxi sheep to get into the mouth of the tiger, so he quickly refused.

"It seems like you don't even have the right to speak." Shen Mo Chen didn't look at Zeng Yi, instead focusing on Liu Xixi.

Liu Xixi signalled to Zeng Yi not to have an argument with this man. She had suffered a lot from him, and she did not want her good friend to suffer another blow from him. She turned her gaze to Shen Jingchen and asked, "Tell me, what's the condition?"

"The person in charge of this project can only be you." Shen Jingchen had a matter-of-fact and unquestionable look on his face.

Liuxi raised her eyebrows. She knew that Shen Mo Chen definitely wasn't that kind. So he had set her up here.

"And if I don't?"

"You should know that if I wanted to kill myself, it would be as easy as crushing an ant." It was a naked threat, without any regard for Liu Xixi's feelings.

"Alright, I'll be in charge." Liu Xi spoke with a light tone, as if he was talking about something insignificant.

Zeng Yi held onto Liu Xixi's hand, telling her not to be too impulsive. She was well aware of Liu Xixi's attitude towards Shen Mo Chen and did not turn back to shoot. If she really became the person in charge of the collaboration with Zhiyuan, who knows how many more things would happen in the future.

Liu Xixi waved her hand to comfort Zeng Yi. Shen Mo Chen definitely had no good intentions, but in this situation, other than compromise with this man, there was no better way. Now that her career had just taken a turn for the better, she didn't want so many people's efforts to go down the drain.

Shen Jingchen's cold eyes sized up Liu Xixi, as if he was trying to verify her words. He originally thought that Liu Xixi would at least resist a little, but he didn't expect that they could reach an agreement so easily.

Could it be … Could time really change so much for a single person?

"Are you sure?" Shen Jingchen didn't seem to believe that such an easy thing to make Liu Xixi compromise, so he asked with doubt in his voice.

"I would like to ask CEO Shen if I have any other choice?" A trace of mockery was displayed on Liuxi's palm-sized face, as if she was mocking Shen Mo Chen for not doing such a thing.

"Very good, Liuxi, you have learned your lesson." The sunlight shone through the glass window onto Shen Jingchen's face, giving him a golden sheen. Shen Jingchen's face softened a little, but Liuxi knew that all of this was just an illusion. Shen Jingchen would only be a demon in his bones, and that would never change.

However, having dealt with Shen Mo Chen for so many years, Liuxi had learned to look straight at him instead of cowering in a corner and fearing him. "If you don't learn to be obedient, do you want to see me cut your wrist again?"

Shen Mo Chen's expression turned cold. He felt that he had brought trouble upon himself. Every time he conversed with Liu Xi Xi, the final result would always be a bad one.

He withdrew his gaze, and his tone grew colder. He tossed a pen from his suit pocket at Liu Xixi. "If you've made up your mind, then sign it."
