Well, if Miss Bai knew them, then they're probably professional businessmen. Although, she cannot say the same thing to the muscular man, he certainly did not fit the description of a 'serious' businessman.
Ethan does not know why but when he saw Tang He Jiu, he suddenly felt a bit hostile against him.
If he knew that Tang He Jiu and Lillie are really 'close' friends, he will not hesitate to eliminate him immediately.
"Forego the formalities. Let's just get straight to the point." Ethan indifferently replied. His CEO self is fully activated, he doesn't like dallying.
Tang He Jiu softly whistled. So this is Little flower's fiancee? They're so much alike, what happened to opposite attracts? He pouted.
Song Mo Kun saw the former Major General pouting like a kid, he sighed and shook his head. It was the first time Song Mo Kun met Tang He Jiu, this childish man who looks like he could beat you into a pulp in just mere seconds.
If Lillie did not introduce Tang He Jiu, he would not believe that he's actually the Black Tiger. The formidable boss of the Black Tiger Organization, White Bird's most trusted ally...is actually this 10 year old inside of an intimidating Major General?
Song Mo Kun has done all the talking while Tang He Jiu would stare blankly at the screen or sometimes stealing glances on the beautiful woman beside Ethan. He still pondered what's his purpose on this meeting.
Lillie knew that Tang He Jiu is completely useless when it comes to this profession. Even downrightly criticizing that he'll be a burden to Song Mo Kun's mission. But, Tang He Jiu used his 'I did so many things for you' card, shamelessly begging her to let him come with Song Mo Kun in the meeting.
Because of his non stop nagging, Lillie gave up and let him come. Though, having Tang He Jiu as the second supposed shareholder does not appear to be a bad idea, he just does not look like your typical businessman.
However, if Tang He Jiu admitted that his reason in attending is to compare himself to Ethan, Lillie and Song Mo Kun would certainly throw him in the yellow river and let him drown.
Why would a man whom seen bloodshed, fought for their country, the boss of one of the notorious Legendary Mythical Leaders, compare himself to a mere businessman?
Yes, Ethan is filthy rich and powerful in the Business World and Elite Society and yes he's really handsome, intelligent, talented and perfect....
Tang He Jiu made his point.
After the meeting has ended, Ethan and the new shareholders of Hong Long made an agreement. With the papers signed and stamped complete, the contract was sealed.
"Thank you for your cooperations, Mr Song, Mr Tang." Yu Ming Lian thanked the two in her boss' stead.
"Please, Miss Yu, call me He Jiu." He winked.
Yu Ming Lian stare at him with a deadpan expression before turning her gaze at Song Mo Kun with a polite smile. "Mr Song, we'll be expecting your presence on the next meeting."
Tang He Jiu: Ignored...
"Certainly, Miss Yu. I look forward in working with you from now on." Song Mo Kun and Yu Ming Lian shook hands.
Tang He Jiu: Hey...did I suddenly turn invisible? Do you know I'm still here?
***
Ethan left first and went back to his office while Yu Ming Lian escorted those two out. Opening his office door, his eyes narrowed when he felt another presence inside.
Scanning his surroundings, he saw nothing out of place until his eyes landed on his swiveled chair.
He strode in front of his table, waiting for whoever's sitting on his chair to turn around.
"How was your meeting..." Said a familiar soft, cold voice.
Ethan's eyes slightly widen in surprise, the swivel chair turn around and showed,
"...dear?" Lillie ended her sentence.
(Extra Scene)
"First senior brother?" Song Mo Kun was baffled when he saw Elliot.
"Miss Bai asked me to drive you two back to the HQ." Elliot said and opened the door for them.
"Where's Lillie?" Tang He Jiu asked and was about to enter the car.
"She's inside Mr Li's office." He bluntly replied.
Tang He Jiu halted, calmly backing out of the car. Song Mo Kun and Elliot magically appeared on his back and pushed him in.
While Tang He Jiu's busy trying to stand up, Elliot quickly entered the driver's seat while Song Mo Kun on the pa.s.senger.
The car was already moving away Hong Long's building when Tang He Jiu got up.
Tang He Jiu's expression was blank before trying to open the door. Unfortunately for him, Elliot turned on the child lock.
"Elliot...Kun-er..." The two ignored him as they focused on the road.
"You b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! You're on his side!"
"Don't misunderstand, He Jiu. We're simply following Miss Bai's orders." Elliot deadpanned.
"They're engaged, we should let them bond more." Song Mo Kun nodded in agreement.
"BULLSH*T!" Tang He Jiu roared so loud you can hear him outside the car.
