Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love

Xie Xiao's unexpected cooperation seemed to at least make Director Ge quite happy.

Seeing Xie Xiao come in and greet him with a smile, he said, "Mr. Xie is really giving me face. I thought I would have to plead three times."

Xie Xiao said with a smile, "You are too kind, Director Ge. Just call me Xie Xiao. I know my own weight and wouldn't dare to have you personally invite me. A phone call would suffice."

That being said, Director Ge really did have his secretary call Xie Xiao.

But he found some excuse to decline it.

Director Ge looked at the smiling young man in front of him but knew he was just a smiling tiger, not so simple.

But no matter what they thought inside, both of them were complimenting each other with smiles on their faces.

Meanwhile, Yan Shi, acting as the driver, remained quiet, not paying much attention to Xie Xiao, as if the two did not know each other.

It was then that Director Ge suddenly asked Yan Shi, "Shitou, I only recently found out that you and Mr. Xie were classmates? How come you never mentioned this before?"

Yan Shi kept his eyes forward, "Boss, I'm just a nobody. Mr. Xie probably doesn't even remember me. I didn't have the nerve to bring it up."

It was then that Xie Xiao showed a hesitant, apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, my memory isn't that good. I really don't recall..."

Whether these two were acting or if it was really something Director Ge intended to do, as long as Xie Xiao kept insisting he did not remember Yan Shi, they couldn't really argue further, could they?

Unless Yan Shi planned to reveal himself, Xie Xiao still had other ways to push it aside.

Actually, Xie Xiao could guess why Director Ge was looking for him.

If nothing went wrong, it should be about continuing the cooperation with the company.

Probably because of his status as the future son-in-law of the Luo family.

Upon hearing the two's vague statements, Director Ge didn't press further but just asked with a smile, "I really don't mean anything else, just wanted to ask about this Shitou, that Miss Luo from your school, I know a bit about her, she must be very beautiful, right? Wouldn't a bunch of young boys have liked her when you were studying?"

Yan Shi smiled and replied, "Indeed, Luo Yanran was the school beauty."

Xie Xiao didn't like them discussing Luo Yanran, so his smile faded at this moment.

Fortunately, Director Ge just touched on the topic and then turned it back to Xie Xiao, "Mr. Xie is impressive, winning a beauty's affection. It's true, anyone whom Director Luo favors is bound to be outstanding."

"You make it hard for me to respond to such compliments," Xie Xiao sighed helplessly. "Please don't flatter me, or I'll get so embarrassed I might just jump off somewhere."

"Hahaha, it's not as exaggerated as that..."

The dining place must have been decided long before, very high-end. The cost of one meal probably equated to a month's salary of an average office employee.

Xie Xiao's brow twitched as he got out of the car.
Experience tales at empire

Whether it tasted good was unknown, but it was certainly expensive.

Especially since they were only two people but still booked a private room.

Upon entering, Xie Xiao feigned surprise asking, "Director Ge, did you invite someone else?"

Director Ge waved his hand, "No, just the two of us. I just wanted a quiet place to talk properly."

Xie Xiao nodded with a smile. The formal discussion started after the dishes were served.

The private room was quite large, with only Director Ge, Xie Xiao, and Yan Shi, three people inside.

It was apparent that Yan Shi was truly valued.

Director Ge was the first to speak, "Little Xie, I'll just be bold and ask you to call me 'brother'. We hit it off."

Xie Xiao thought to himself, hopefully not too well, we've hardly met that much.

But his face still wore a smile.

Following him closely, Yan Shi thought to himself that Xie Xiao, seeming gentle and mild, had managed to play along with his boss the whole trip while remaining cool and composed.

No wonder he couldn't surpass him back in their school days. It really seemed he was incomparable...

By now, Director Ge had already steered the conversation towards cooperation, "Brother, I won't beat around the bush. I came to you with a thick face mainly about the cooperation matter."

It was the same old rhetoric from Xie Xiao, "Director Ge, I really can't decide on that matter..."

Ge Hui waved his hand to interrupt, "Hold on, Xie, don't rush. I'm a straightforward person. If there's money to be made, it's for both of us. Just help me secure this big deal, and I'll give you this number..."

He gestured a two.

Twenty percent, indeed a large figure.

Then he lowered his voice, "It's not a small amount. And honestly, although your last name is Xie, this company is ultimately named Luo. No matter how hard you work for a lifetime, all the money earned will be named Luo, but the money in your hands will directly be named Xie..."

Truthfully, Xie Xiao found Ge Hui quite impressive.

The points he made were indeed logical and well-founded.

And very tempting.

Even Xie Xiao had to admit, Ge Hui was a born businessman.

That's why he was able to grow his business so much in such a short time, which was really impressive.

At this moment, he was looking directly at Ge Hui.

Ge Hui's eyes carried a smile and a sense of pride.

Convincing a young recent graduate like him was quite easy.

He had put a lot of effort into reviewing Xie Xiao's background beforehand.

His father was a teacher, and his mother was a doctor.

But he himself studied finance, a field not in line with the rest of his family.

Ge Hui himself also came from a finance background; he chose it for a simple reason: he wanted to make money.

Who doesn't like money?

Especially young people, ambitious and always longing to see a big sum of money.

Nothing makes one feel more secure than the money in one's own pocket.

Forget about romance, Ge Hui had seen plenty, many breakups right after graduation.

However, Xie Xiao did have good judgment; if he wasn't foolish, he probably wouldn't break up.

But a wife (girlfriend) wealthier than himself, and a rich father-in-law looming over him.

Being labeled as the "prospective son-in-law of the Luo family," could the young people of today really endure that?

Ge Hui didn't think so.

So after speaking, he wasn't in a hurry for Xie Xiao to agree, just smiling as he watched him.

After a while, Xie Xiao first nodded his head.

Indeed, the sense of pride in Ge Hui's eyes became even more apparent.

But Xie Xiao then said, "President Ge, you've totally stunned me with your proposal."

He smiled helplessly, "I'm a bit confused right now."

Secure, Ge Hui felt a surge of joy internally.

Even Yan Shi glanced at Xie Xiao. With such enticing conditions, Xie Xiao would probably make the same choice as them, right?

Xie Xiao poured a glass of wine for Ge Hui.

Indeed, Ge Hui's body completely relaxed, "Xie, it's only you. If it were someone else in your company, at most I'd offer ten percent..."

Xie Xiao listened to him, then exclaimed, surprised, "Brother Ge, have you approached others?"

This address made Ge Hui feel that the matter was settled.

With a smile on his face, "Of course not. Now that I've talked to you, I won't waste time elsewhere. That's why they say you're smart, so coming to you was the right decision..."

Xie Xiao laughed along, "Truly, that's high praise from Brother Ge..."
