Chapter 157 - Why?

“Why would you want to cooperate with me?”

Yun Qing did not understand and spoke slowly after a long while.

Huo Chuan lowered his eyes.

Why?

He himself did not understand why he wanted to cooperate with Yun Qing.

He just wanted to contact Yun Qing more and ask her to forgive him.

Therefore, he was willing to give her a share of this project.

“There’s no why.”

Huo Chuan said calmly, “You just have to agree or not.”

This answer made Yun Qing feel that this project was not really Huo Chuan’s compensation for her divorce, right?

So, he was trying to ease their relationship?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

To make her forgive him?

Did Huo Chuan change his personality? Why was he suddenly so “understanding”?

After a moment of silence, Yun Qing said, “Thank you for your kindness, President Huo. I’ll go back and think about it. I’m busy shopping now.”

After that, Yun Qing hung up the phone.

Gu Zhi came to Yun Qing’s side and asked curiously, “What is Huo Chuan trying to do again?”

“He wants me to work with him on that government project.”

Yun Qing muttered, still recovering from her astonishment. “That project has a very promising future. I don’t know why Huo Chuan suddenly showed mercy...”

“He wouldn’t set a trap for you, would he?” Gu Zhi asked with a frown.

“Not really.” Yun Qing shook her head.

She still trusted Huo Chuan when it came to this.

Huo Chuan would not use such despicable means to deal with her. If he wanted to go against her, he could totally go against her in a business war.

“Then... he wouldn’t be trying to get you back, would he?”

As she thought of Huo Chuan’s previous actions, Gu Zhi could not help but ask.

“That’s why I asked him about it. Is he trying to compensate me for the divorce? But with Huo Chuan’s personality, he wouldn’t do that.”

Yun Qing could not believe that Huo Chuan would want to get her back.

He did not cherish her when she loved him so much. What was the use of getting her back now?

“Don’t worry about whether he really wants to get you back.”

Gu Zhi said earnestly, “If that project is really like what he said, money is more important. Hurry up and get it.”

Although Yun Qing did not lack money, who would complain that she had more money?

Yun Qing could not help but laugh. “You little money-grubber!”

Gu Zhi was right. Making money was the most important thing. What she needed to do was not to care about Huo Chuan anymore.

If she missed this opportunity to make money because of Huo Chuan, wouldn’t that prove that she still cared about Huo Chuan?

“You’re right. The future of the Yun group is the most important.”

Yun Qing was enlightened. She no longer bothered about Huo Chuan’s goal.

No matter what his goal was, the initiative was in her hands.

Moreover, the money was in her hands. It was only right for Huo Chuan to compensate her.

After shopping happily with Gu Zhi, Yun Qing had gained a lot.

She returned home with her big and small bags. Before she could put them down, Ye Zhi called her.

“Little Qing! You betrayed me!”

Ye Zhi’s “roar”came, but his tone was full of grievance.

“You actually sold the project I bought for you to Huo Chuan! How could you do this to me?”

Yun Qing knew that Ye Zhi would call her after he found out about it. She smiled and said, “That project is a hot potato for me. Since Huo Chuan wants to buy it, I’ll sell it to him.

“You’re still so happy about the entire thing. I was almost beaten to death by my grandfather!”

Ye Zhi wailed incessantly. When Yun Qing saw him like this, she smiled and said, “It’s your fault that your mind is empty.”

“My head is all yours!”

“No, no, no, I don’t want your head to be filled with me!”

Yun Qing hurriedly said and stopped Ye Zhi.

Right now, she and Ye Zhi had yet to do anything, but Fang Ya had already started to target her.

Yun Qing did not want to make enemies everywhere. Right now, she only hoped that Ye Zhi could wake up a little and not cross the line.

“You don’t even feel sorry for me anymore.”

Ye Zhi cried out.

“You’re such a hypocrite! Hurry up and properly apologize to your grandfather.”

Yun Qing couldn’t help but complain.

Ye Zhi clearly wanted to seek comfort, but in the end, he was even labeled as a “hypocrite” by Yun Qing.

His wounded heart was stabbed even more painfully.

Ye Zhi didn’t say a word and directly hung up the phone in anger.

Yun Qing didn’t take this matter to heart. She turned around and walked into the study, intending to take another look at the documents and rest.
