Chapter 1233: Chapter 1170: A Man Should Cherish His Own Wife
Qu Yuzuo finished speaking, and while the others didn’t seem to notice, Song Yansheng raised an eyebrow.
This kid, something’s definitely off today; he’s actually learned to pick fights.
But knowing that the person he’s messing with is Liao Qinghe, he felt quite pleased inside.
After all, Liao Qinghe’s so-called amendments this afternoon caused TK quite a bit of trouble.
Still, despite the trouble, this project was incredibly profitable for TK.
Of course, Wen Biyue being almost fatally wounded by Yan Ke, who was once his bodyguard, made him feel indebted to her.
If Wen Biyue had personally amended the contract, he wouldn’t have had a problem at all.
It’s just that he found Liao Qinghe somewhat annoying, though he couldn’t quite say why.
Liao Qinghe smiled faintly, "It seems Dr. Qu doesn’t trust me. I read thoroughly the paper you published three years ago on the effects of psychology in corporate management and talent training. Back then, I thought, no wonder Mr. Song’s companies thrive both domestically and internationally; turns out he has a ’Zhuge Liang’ by his side!"
Before Qu Yuzuo could speak, Yao Ziwan chimed in, "Did Dr. Qu write that paper? I’ve read it too..."
Qu Yuzuo glanced at Yao Ziwan and then shifted his gaze back, speaking indifferently, "That paper was written upon request. Personally, I’m not very interested in economics; furthermore, Mr. Song’s companies, both domestic and international, have nothing to do with me. I’m a doctor, not a businessman..."
After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Song Yansheng, asking, "Where should I sit?"
There were only a few people, more than enough space, with several empty seats.
Song Yansheng said, "Sit anywhere you like, wherever feels right to you!"
Qu Yuzuo glanced around indifferently, didn’t go far, and directly sat down in the seat between Yao Ziwan and Chi Rui.
Once Qu Yuzuo sat down, everyone else followed suit.
Among the people present, except for Liao Qinghe and Qiao Yichi, the others weren’t very talkative.
Qiao Yichi knew his role here was to divert conversations for Song Yansheng, so he smiled and started chatting with Liao Qinghe.
He had heard that Liao Qinghe wasn’t originally a businessman, which piqued his interest in his profession.
But Liao Qinghe merely smiled lightly and said, "Business is business. Since I’m here to talk projects with Mr. Song on behalf of Biyue, Mr. Qiao should treat me as a businessman. That’s the kind of relationship...
But he thought to himself, this man is really strange. On the way earlier, he had chatted with Liao Qinghe.
Yet all of Liao Qinghe’s topics seemed a bit off-track; in other words, he had a certain level of privacy protection regarding personal matters.
Little did he expect the protection would be so strong that he wouldn’t even reveal his profession!
Qiao Yichi glanced at Song Yansheng, giving him a look: meaning, I can’t handle this Liao Qinghe, I’ll leave him to you!
Qiao Yichi couldn’t get the conversation going with Liao Qinghe, but Liao Qinghe wasn’t someone who’d let the room go silent, and during the time waiting for the dishes to arrive, he shifted the topic to the Shi Family’s shareholder meeting.
He brought up Shi Nuan.
Liao Qinghe said, "I’ve heard that the Shi Family’s shareholder meeting was quite a commotion this time, but I didn’t expect the noise was because of Mrs. Song’s involvement. However, I must say, becoming a shareholder of a big company at such a young age is quite an achievement!"
Shi Nuan felt a bit awkward; her shares were a gift from her father, so what did that have to do with achievements?
And being young? She was already twenty-two, still young?
Shi Nuan said, "Mr. Liao flatters me, I’m just benefiting from a family business, nothing to boast about!"
Liao Qinghe replied, "Mrs. Song shouldn’t be so modest. I, Liao Qinghe, don’t just compliment anyone casually. I saw a lot of news about Mrs. Song’s impressive speech at the shareholder meeting while I was on my way from the airport..."
Shi Nuan felt embarrassed, not knowing how to respond, and simply said, "...The journalists were just making stuff up!"
Liao Qinghe laughed heartily and said, "Mrs. Song is really quite adorable. No wonder she has Mr. Song head over heels. Having a wife like Mrs. Song around, Mr. Song’s life mustn’t be too dull... Well, speaking of which, this characteristic of Mrs. Song’s is somewhat like that of your Younger Aunt!"
Shi Nuan was stunned for a moment, her heart quivering at a certain spot.
Actually, seeing Liao Qinghe reminded her of her Younger Aunt Xu Jing, because that’s the only known connection she had after losing contact with her Younger Aunt and grandmother.
