Yuan Shu explained the pros and cons of this matter, and she didnt reveal as much greed as s.h.i.+ Xiao had expected or try to obtain more benefits from the s.h.i.+ family. Instead, she drew a clear line in order to let herself escape from this partners.h.i.+p completely.

In just a few sentences, Yuan Shu placed the two of them on equal footing, as if they were on opposite sides of the scale and there was no deviation at all. That was why there was such a symmetrical balance.

Yuan Shu gave s.h.i.+ Xiao no other choice. At this moment, regardless of whether s.h.i.+ Xiao advanced or retreated, it would affect their cooperation.

If s.h.i.+ Xiao pushed his luck and wanted Yuan Shu to offer more conditions, the result would definitely be Yuan Shu withdrawing and returning all the negative consequences of the divorce to the s.h.i.+ Corporation. At that time, the share price would fall and the s.h.i.+ Corporation probably wouldnt be able to stand up so quickly.

With s.h.i.+ Xiaos personality, s.h.i.+ Xiao definitely wouldnt take a step back. They would definitely fight teeth to teeth and the outcome of their unseemly divorce would still be the same as the previous outcome.

Therefore, he had only one choice, which was to accept Yuan Shus suggestion.

What kind of woman was Yuan Shu? s.h.i.+ Xiao couldnt help but be interested in this woman who was evenly matched with him.

All these years, he had never seen anyone who could guide him in negotiations and put him in such a pa.s.sive situation, but Yuan Shu did it.

At the beginning of the negotiation, Yuan Shu put herself in a weaker position. At the same time, she put on a battle suit for s.h.i.+ Xiao, so the two of them seemed to be standing on opposing ends of the arena.

s.h.i.+ Xiao chuckled, revealing his white teeth. He had not been so happy in a long time. He felt respect for his opponent who was evenly matched with him, and was also surprised that he finally met a like-minded person.

s.h.i.+ Xiao suddenly couldnt bear to get a divorce and had a strong urge to keep this woman by his side no matter what. By then, it wouldnt be easy for Yuan Shu to leave so easily.

Yuan Shu didnt speak anymore. Instead, she looked at s.h.i.+ Xiao seriously. No matter what the situation was, there was no need for her to speak again. She was already confident in the outcome.

s.h.i.+ Xiao slowly sat up straight and looked into Yuan Shus eyes to show his respect for Yuan Shu. Deal.

Yuan Shu still appeared unfazed, as if she had expected this. She smiled, uncrossed her legs and straightened her back as she said, Happy cooperation.

At this moment, Zhao Mian had just bought lunch and brought it up. Two thermos bags filled with food were placed on the table. Soon, the table was filled.

Zhao Mian had always been very considerate. When she bought lunch, she bought a combination of the signature dishes of the eight major cuisines. This way, no matter what preferences the two of them had, they could eat them.

Yuan Shu wasnt picky about the cuisine, but she was very picky about the quality of the food. Be it meat or vegetables, she had to eat the freshest. She took a closer look at the dishes on the table. They looked and smelled good. Other than the fact that the color of the duck meat in the duck vermicelli soup that wasnt right, every dish seemed to be made with high quality ingredients.

Yuan Shu picked up a piece of braised beef brisket and placed it on the rice. After the braised beef absorbed the soup, she put it in her mouth. The beef was deeply stewed, and the taste had completely entered every texture of the meat. Apart from the taste of the meat itself, there was also of seasoning. It was delicious.

When s.h.i.+ Xiao saw that Yuan Shu was so satisfied with the food, he immediately felt that it was very appetizing. He also picked up a piece of braised beef brisket and chewed it carefully.

s.h.i.+ Xiao couldnt help but observe Yuan Shus expression. If she appeared to think that the dish was delicious, he would eat it as well. The meal lasted half an hour.

The two of them didnt speak during the meal, but the atmosphere was harmonious..
