When Xiao Muyou said this, Lei Yan knew what she wanted to ask. He frowned, reached out and touched Xiao Muyou's forehead, and then said reproachfully.
"Why is a girl asking these questions?"
Seeing that Lei Yan didn't answer, Xiao Muyou curled his lips and said.
"Shouldn't I just ask? I don't want to just forget it. It seems I don't have confidence in myself."
The obvious method of provoking generals was useless to Lei Yan, so he just heard Lei Yan say something.
"Don't you know whether I am big or small? You don't know who it is, but you always shout..."
"Shut up, don't say anything."
When Xiao Muyou heard what he said, something was getting more and more wrong. He immediately knew what Lei Yan wanted to say, and he hurriedly scolded her. Lei Yan saw Xiao Muyou's shameful and angry expression, smiled slyly, and then said.
"I have never lived in a group. When I was in college, I always lived alone outside because of my status. Therefore, I can't answer the questions you want to know."
Hearing such an answer, Xiao Muyou didn't know what to say for a moment. Of course she knew why Lei Yan didn't stay, and she suddenly felt sorry for Lei Yan.
Feeling the gloomy atmosphere in the carriage, Lei Yan held Xiao Muyou's hand, put it to his mouth, kissed it, and said.
"It's all over. Everything is my own choice. Don't worry too much."
"Tch, who cares anymore? Just drive faster. You have to change clothes and put on makeup when you get back. Don't be late."
Xiao Muyou changed the topic, and Lei Yan was quite moved. Knowing that the woman was comforting him, he smiled, speeded up, and continued to drive towards Jinxi Garden.
Around 1:30, while Xiao Muyou was still putting on makeup, Chen Li called.
"Hey, boss, are you leaving yet?"
"Isn't it starting at three o'clock? It's still early? Are you going over?"
"No, I'm just asking you. By the way, I heard from the grapevine that Zhou Qianhe from Wenhua Publishing House will also be attending today's reception."
Hearing Chen Li's words, Xiao Muyou was not surprised. Zhou Qianhe was the new president of Wenhua Publishing House three months ago. If the previous news about Chen Li was correct, then Zhou Qianhe's appointment should be related to the publishing company's stolen sales.
.
As for this Zhou Qianhe, Xiao Muyou knew something about it. She was a very powerful woman. The key was that she was young and beautiful like her. Well, Xiao Muyou didn't want to put money on her face, but this Zhou Qianhe was indeed very young.
.
She is twenty-eight years old and has been engaged in literary publishing for six years. She was an intern at Wenhua Publishing House during college. It is said that she is also a person with a background. However, her ability to take the position of president of the publishing house at such a young age is definitely not based on her background, but
This woman is very powerful. Speaking of which, Xiao Muyou has fought against this woman before, and she won and lost.
Hearing Chen Li's words at this time, Xiao Muyou replied lightly.
"She is now the president of Wenhua Publishing House. Of course she will attend today's reception. There is nothing strange about it. Why are you afraid? You are timid before fighting. This is a taboo for military strategists."
"Boss, no, I just think this woman must have a purpose for coming to the reception this time. I have investigated and found that this woman Zhou Qianhe is more low-key than you. This is her first public appearance after taking office. Anyway, boss, we should be careful.
Bar."
Chen Li said in an extremely serious tone. Xiao Muyou smiled slightly after hearing this and said comfortingly.
"Okay, it's like your boss is afraid of her. Today's reception is held by the investment department. She can still shake things up. I'm still putting on makeup. Your boss is going to show off today.
Qun Fang."
After saying that, Xiao Muyou hung up the phone. At the same time, the original smile on his face gradually faded, a coldness flashed in his eyes, and his expression became extremely serious.
Zhou Qianhe, right? Xiao Muyou didn't believe that this woman who had always been very low-key would show up at the reception for no reason, but Xiao Muyou didn't know what her purpose was.
Forget it, Xiao Muyou had never been afraid of anyone before the soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth. Although she had fought with Zhou Qianhe several times before, in general, she had never lost.
Time passed little by little, and at half past two, Xiao Muyou walked out of the villa.
Originally, she had made an appointment to go to the reception with Lei Yan, but now that Zhou Qianhe was involved, Xiao Muyou temporarily decided to let Chen Li come here to join her and go to the reception together.
"Boss, you are so beautiful today."
As soon as he walked to the car, Chen Li, who had been waiting there for a long time, began to praise him. Xiao Muyou sat directly in the car and said something disgusting.
"Why, wasn't I beautiful before?"
"No, no, boss is beautiful every day, but today he is particularly beautiful. Look, I am eclipsed."
In fact, Chen Li is also a beauty, but she doesn't bother to dress up on weekdays. She wears boring professional suits every day. It is rare to wear a formal dress and she is particularly eye-catching, but standing next to Xiao Muyou, she is still a little inferior.
Seeing Chen Li say this, Xiao Muyou felt disgusted again, and then said.
"I'll stay away from you for a while."
"No, boss, I will fight with you today. We must not let Zhou Qianhe become arrogant."
Speaking of which, Chen Li and Zhou Qianhe have some connections. The two are college classmates. One was first in the department and the other was second in the department. Therefore, the two have been secretly competing for four years in college.
Later, Chen Li was recruited into Yaohua Cultural and Creative Industries by fellow alumnus Xiao Muyou. He thought the battle between the two was over, but he didn't expect that Zhou Qianhe went directly to Wenhua Publishing House and became colleagues in the calculation.
.
Later, Chen Li was once responsible for signing a contract for a top author, but Zhou Qianhe intercepted him halfway and signed the author to Wenhua Publishing House. When Chen Li found out, he came to have a quarrel with Zhou Qianhe. The details were:
No one knows if they won the argument, but judging from Chen Li's attitude towards Zhou Qianhe, it probably ended in failure.
Seeing Chen Li's expression as if he was going to the battlefield, Xiao Muyou smiled lightly and said.
"Okay, why don't you be so nervous? What if nothing happens?"
"Shouldn't I be more cautious? Boss, do you think that woman knows that we have also contacted Emmons Publishing House?"
Hearing Chen Li's guess, Xiao Muyou frowned slightly. She had only been in contact with Gu Li for two or three days, and so far there had been no progress. Zhou Qianhe probably didn't have such great powers.
However, Chen Li's words also reminded Xiao Muyou that it seemed that this matter had to be speeded up and more cautious. Xiao Muyou already had some plans in mind, but all this had to wait until she finished her charity activities.
The thing is, hey, I don’t have enough time.
"Boss, what are you thinking? Does Zhou Qianhe really know about it? No way. At present, the only people in our company who know about this matter are the boss, me, and Vice President Jiang."
"Okay, instead of guessing here, it's better to take a look at the situation when the time comes. Maybe we are just scaring ourselves. How is the investigation of the matter I asked you to investigate now? If this matter can be found out, then Wenhua Publishing House
It does not pose a threat to us."
"We have some ideas, but we still need all the substantive data and it will take some time."
"Okay, tell me as soon as you have the results. That's it. I'm a little tired. Let's take a rest."
After saying that, Xiao Muyou leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes. Chen Li beside him was stunned for a moment, and then asked curiously.
"Boss, what are you doing today? Are you so tired? You didn't go to the company today?"
"You talk a lot, so be quiet."
Xiao Muyou glared, this Chen Li was just too curious.
At almost 2:50, Xiao Muyou and Chen Li finally arrived at the venue where today's reception was held.
Although the name of Kyoto Guest House is a bit unsophisticated, the environment here is no worse than those of five-star hotels, and is even more beautiful.
Kyoto Guest House is affiliated to a government department, and its location and environment are incomparable to those of five-star hotels.
Kyoto Guesthouse is composed of three connected courtyards. It is said that these courtyards have a history of two to three hundred years and can be regarded as ancient cultural relics.
When you walk into the gate, you will see a courtyard with pavilions and pavilions, two wind and rain corridors, the courtyard, the Jiuqu Bridge, and the stacked rockeries, each of which exudes low-key luxury.
After passing through the first courtyard, we arrived at the reception site, a banquet hall that can accommodate five to six hundred people.
When Xiao Muyou and Chen Li arrived, there were already many people in the banquet hall, including some they knew each other. The two of them also said hello one after another, and then found a quiet corner to look around.
"What are you looking at? As soon as I came in, I saw you hiding here and looking around. Are you a thief?"
Suddenly, a man's voice came from far away. Xiao Muyou didn't even look up. When she heard the voice, she knew it was her good brother Xiao Yiheng.
"Why did you come here? Hey, where is my sister-in-law?"
"She has gone to the crew and will be filming in another location the day after tomorrow."
When Xiao Yiheng said this, he was still a little unhappy. When Xiao Muyou saw this, he smiled evilly and said.
"Oh, the two places are going to be separated. Brother, if you ask me, you shouldn't let your sister-in-law take on this drama."
"Hmph, when you find a boyfriend in the future, I will ask him to lock you at home and not let you go out to work."
Xiao Yiheng said with a smirk. When Xiao Muyou heard this, he suddenly felt guilty. He raised his head and looked around, but did not see that familiar figure.
"What are you looking at? Let's go and meet a few people."
Xiao Yiheng said, pulling Xiao Muyou towards the banquet center, not allowing her to resist.
