Chapter 1278: Reaching An Agreement (2)
Mo Beihan and Chu Yi left the room. Gu Qingyao was not very interested in the details of their discussion.
The soundproofing here was excellent. Even if she wanted to, she would not be able to hear what they said.
Rather, it was Chu Yi’s subordinate who looked at Gu Qingyao with some… bewilderment!
This Madam Mo was just going to stay here by herself?
Mo Beihan was not worried and just left like that?
He looked at his gun and suddenly felt incredibly embarra.s.sed!
Mo Beihan and Chu Yi spent more than two hours in the room before they emerged. Gu Qingyao had finished eating long ago. She stayed on the balcony and almost fell asleep!
Mo Beihan had gone in alone. Mo Beihan had dismissed Feng Xun when Chu Yi obediently sat down to eat.
So Chu Yi did not bring his subordinate either. The men outside were all Chu Yi’s men. Gu Qingyao was dozing off. It was a revelation to the subordinate.
When Mo Beihan and Chu Yi emerged, it was clear that Mo Beihan was very happy and little Mo Yang was very excited. He looked as if he had discovered a new continent.
Meanwhile, Chu Yi’s expression was rather gloomy, but not too gloomy.
From their expressions, Gu Qingyao could tell that Mo Beihan had not made life too difficult for Chu Yi. It must have been within Chu Yi’s range of acceptance.
Since they had reached an agreement, Gu Qingyao would naturally continue to treat Chu Yi.
After they went their separate ways from Jin Jiang Restaurant, Mo Beihan brought Gu Qingyao and Mo Yang home.
Chu Yi went back to where he was staying.
In the study, the subordinate was standing in a corner, looking at his boss with concern.
“Sir…”
Chu Yi sighed and raised his hand to stop him. “It’s fine. That fellow Mo Beihan is repulsive but not despicable. His requests were reasonable, and I can afford them. It’s just as well!”
When the subordinate heard that the terms were acceptable to his boss, he also sighed in relief!
“Sir, if the terms are not too unreasonable, then that’s good news for you. If Gu Qingyao can really cure you, you will regain your health. Then you can have anything.”
His boss was so intelligent and capable. Over the years, he had managed to attain his position despite his health. The subordinate believed that when Sir recovered completely, his powers would only increase.
“You’re right. There’s nothing more important than my life. Besides, I’m actually relieved to have everything out in the open. Mo Beihan’s circle of influence and mine do not overlap much. It doesn’t really benefit him to kill me. It looks like he doesn’t mean to make things too difficult for me. After this, we will have our freedom within the capital!
“We don’t need to tread gingerly all the time and be on our guard against Mo Beihan!”
Chu Yi had no choice. The person who could cure him was Mo Beihan’s wife.
Besides, anyone else would also use this to threaten him or find ways to make things difficult for him. Chu Yi was comfortable with this arrangement.
He could neither beat him nor trap him. He wasn’t even as powerful as his opponent. He might as well submit and obtain a healthy body in exchange!
There was no point in fighting.
The subordinate said, “Sir, have you decided to work together with Mo Beihan?”
Chu Yi nodded.
The subordinate said, “Then… the Huo family…”
Chu Yi’s eyes grew frosty and his mouth curved in a disdainful smile. “Get rid of them!”
He was now working with Mo Beihan. Naturally, he had to get rid of the Huo family as a… gesture of goodwill towards Mo Beihan!
The subordinate obeyed. “Yes!”
