Bab 20: Mrs. Chu, Do You Really Want to Stay With Me?
Editor: Atlas Studios
Song Liangjiang had already stayed up all night to sketch the design. After Chu Jingmo put on the sunglasses for her, she fell asleep not long after.
The plane took off. Chu Jingmo asked for a blanket to cover Song Liangjiang and took out a book to read. The title was: A Must Read Guide for New Parents.
"Aren't you afraid that something will happen if you leave the country at this time?" Xie Yu lowered his voice and spoke to Chu Jingmo.
"They won't be able to stop me if I really want to leave the country." Chu Jingmo's expression didn't falter. He didn't seem to care that he couldn't leave the country.
Xie Yu chuckled at his reaction. "True."
Until now, no one had been able to stop Chu Jingmo from doing what he wanted to do. In the past, he had climbed to the top despite obstacles and challenges. Therefore, it was probably not difficult for him to succeed in this takeover.
"Is the Chu Corporation's situation really that serious?" Xie Yu whispered softly.
"They're just a bunch of old things who are used to living comfortably and threatening others with their shares." Chu Jingmo didn't seem too bothered. "The Chu Corporation has had too many shares distributed and scattered over the years. The shares should have been taken back long ago."
"Those old things have more shares when combined than you do. If they really get desperate, the result…"
"They wouldn't dare. No matter what, they have to take a gamble and see if I can double the worth of their shares." Chu Jingmo knew this better than anyone. "It's just that the 51 percent shares…"
More than half of the shares were in the hands of one person. That was a terrifying realization. Perhaps in the end, Chu Jingmo would end up doing all the work for someone else.
Song Liangjiang was fast asleep. Her head touched Chu Jingmo's shoulder.
Chu Jingmo raised his hand and lifted the armrest between them. Song Liangjiang's head fell against his chest and she slept soundly.
Xie Yu glanced at the woman in Chu Jingmo's arms. "If the girl in the Xuan family is still alive, she should be about her age."
"You're very chatty today?" Chu Jingmo adjusted the blanket for Song Liangjiang before he looked at Xie Yu.
Xie Yu smiled elegantly and leaned back in his seat. "Time changes things and people."
After Xie Yu finished laughing, his gaze suddenly landed on the book that Chu Jingmo had closed. He was startled for a long time.
What was the name of the book Chu Jingmo was reading?
A Must Read Guide for New Parents?
Xie Yu was speechless…
So much for being struck by lightning.
Song Liangjiang slept throughout the flight to Country M. When she woke up, she was in a daze, not knowing who she was or where she was momentarily.
Chu Jingmo knocked on her head and she came back to her senses. She covered her head and shouted, "Why did you hit me?"
"Stupid," Chu Jingmo quipped and turned to leave.
Song Liangjiang gritted her teeth and scolded him under her breath.
Xie Yu chuckled behind them. Song Liangjiang immediately jumped. "You'd better stay away from me. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be trampled to death by your fans."
Xie Yu clicked his tongue and patted her head gently. "It's fine. They won't dare to do anything with me by your side."
Song Liangjiang didn't believe him. After getting off the plane, she moved faster than a monkey and got onto the exclusive VIP car where Chu Jingmo was in.
Their accommodation at the Chu Corporation's hotel had been arranged long ago.
Song Liangjiang had been scrutinizing the design of the hotel since she entered. The design of this hotel was from a famous designer in Country M, Mr. Yang. In addition to the unique culture of Country M, he also referenced the style of the ancient gardens. But he only incorporated this style into the entire design and it wasn't very outstanding.
And the person they were meeting this time was Mr. Yang
"Watch the road." Before Song Liangjiang could hit a pillar, Chu Jingmo grabbed her collar and pulled her back.
The hotel management executives were basically waiting at the entrance. The general manager respectfully led Chu Jingmo in.
"President, your suite is ready, and the company's accounts for this year have been sent to your suite. When should I arrange a meeting? I…"
"There's no need to arrange anything. I'm just here to meet someone." Chu Jingmo raised his hand to interrupt him. "Get someone who knows the hotel well."
Chu Jingmo led Song Liangjiang into the elevator. It was obvious that he had no intention of letting anyone follow them.
Song Liangjiang looked up at the elevator. This elevator was not a traditional one, but an additional layer had been added to the interior of the elevator. It had a hollowed-out relief sculpture design, and some local cultural aspects were engraved on it.
Ever since Song Liangjiang entered the hotel, she had realized that every detail of the hotel could be considered perfection. No wonder it took three years to complete.
When the elevator reached the highest level, Song Liangjiang followed Chu Jingmo out. However, just as she stepped out, she suddenly thought of a question. "You didn't give me a room card."
As she spoke, she suddenly stepped back into the elevator. "President Chu, they must have forgotten. I'll go down and get… Ahhh…"
She was suddenly pulled out before the elevator's doors closed, startling her.
"You, you, you…" If she couldn't exit in time, wouldn't she be squashed?
Chu Jingmo pulled her back to the suite.
Song Liangjiang refused to go in. "Chu Jingmo, don't take advantage of me."
Chu Jingmo looked back at the woman hugging the door. "What do you have that's worth me taking advantage of? Your face?"
Song Liangjiang was speechless.
She stared at the man leaning against the wall with his arms crossed in disdain.
"Is it something to be proud of for a man to look better than a woman?" Song Liangjiang retorted.
"For your money?"
Song Liangjiang was speechless.
She touched her small shriveled wallet. Her money had been spent on Harmonious Flowing Stream and Goblets all these years. How could she have money?
"You don't necessarily earn all of your money. Are you proud to be born with a golden spoon in your mouth?"
"Being able to reincarnate well is also a skill." Chu Jingmo did not feel embarrassed at all. "Do you think I will take advantage of your intelligence?"
Song Liangjiang was speechless.
"You, you…" How could he attack her personally?
Chu Jingmo clicked his tongue and was a little disappointed. "Looks like there's nothing to gain."
Song Liangjiang took a deep breath. He shall not be angry with a man like him.
"Sure, since President Chu doesn't care about your safety, I have nothing to be afraid of," she said as she swaggered on her way in. "President Chu, don't regret it."
"Let's wait and see." Chu Jingmo leaned against the wall of the entrance and watched as Song Liangjiang sauntered in. He was looking forward to what she would do.
It was only when Song Liangjiang entered that she realized that the presidential suite was actually a three-bedroom with a massive kitchen. It could be considered a first-class presidential suite.
Li Chuan brought the luggage over. "Miss Song's luggage is already in her room."
Song Liangjiang suddenly glanced at Chu Jingmo. This wretched man lied to her again?
Chu Jingmo accepted her angry gaze. "Why? Does Mrs. Chu really want to stay with me?"
