After making mental preparations, she mustered the courage to raise her head and straighten her chest, pretending to be calm as she walked into the French restaurant called 'Jing Dong is a servant'.

After explaining the purpose of her visit, the female manager of the restaurant led her to a corner of the restaurant and told her to wait for a few minutes.

She lowered her head, but the wait lasted fifty minutes.

Finally, the main character was willing to show himself. "Miss Lin? "I remember that the rejection was very clear a few days ago. I hope that your company will stop …"

She came back to her senses and quickly raised her head. The moment their eyes met, both of them froze in place.

She had been madly infatuated with the man in front of her, had once given up her marriage and daughter for him. But now, after saying goodbye to this man, she no longer had any feelings at all.

On the other hand, Liu Dongqiang wasn't as calm. The moment he saw her, he was deeply attracted by her pair of beautiful eyes.

He immediately sat down, placed his hands on the table, slightly squinting his eyes as he sized up the beauty who had delivered him to him.

Not good … This look, this look that Lin Xiaoqing recognized, was the bloodthirsty expression of the hunter as he stared at his prey.

"Cough, it's like this," she secretly sighed, trying to pull his attention back to her. "A few days ago, our company's Miss Han probably mentioned this to you, we hope you can …"

"I know," he interrupted with a wave of his hand. What did you say your name was? "

"Lin Xiaoqing."

"Xiaoqing?"

Liu Dongqiang carefully chewed on her name as if she was tasting delicious food. For some reason, that feeling made her feel like she was being tossed from head to toe in her head. It was a very disgusting feeling.

She forcefully maintained the smile on her lips and continued, "If Mr. Liu still remembers the cooperation proposal, I wonder if you would be willing to reconsider it again?"

"Sure," he leaned back slightly in his comfortable chair and smiled evilly. "I seem to remember that you want me to design an innovative dish to let a bottle of French red wine display its full charm, right?"

"Right." She nodded slightly.

Liu Dong then paused for a moment. Lin Xiaoqing couldn't figure out what was going on in his mind, so she could only cooperate with his silence.

After a while, he finally opened his mouth, "Where's the wine?"

She was stunned for a moment. After realizing that this was a definite answer, she was overjoyed. She quickly took out a bottle of red wine from her bag.

Liu Dongqiang received the wine with a cold expression and a smile on his face. He turned the bottle around, looked at the label, and asked, "Do you know what I'm worth?"

What did these words mean? He … She wasn't sure what he was hinting at, or even... Explicit.

"Then …" Her red lips slightly parted, waiting for the other party to take the initiative to speak.

"What I want to see is sincerity."

Your sister, you're being so mysterious. I really don't understand why you would be enchanted by this kind of man in your last life! She did not reply, but vaguely understood the other party's ambiguous suggestions. However, since she was unwilling to admit it, she had no choice but to pretend to be a fool.

"It doesn't matter. If Mr. Liu has any requests, we will try our best to fulfill them." She spoke again, still smiling.

"Come over next Wednesday with the contract and we'll discuss it in detail." He smiled.

Lin Xiaoqing frowned. Contract? The contract has already been negotiated?

"But, why don't you try and drink this wine first?"

"I know about this wine. Do you really think I'm out of my condition?" He raised his eyebrows and intentionally revealed a displeased expression, as if she had underestimated his dissatisfaction.

"No, that's not what I meant …"

"Anyway, let's do it like this," he concluded the negotiations unilaterally. "I have a lot of guests, so I don't have much time to chat with you. Next Wednesday, eleven in the morning. Don't be late. " After he finished speaking, he moved his chair back half a step and was about to get up to leave.

"Then when the time comes, I'll invite our company's …"

"I don't want anyone else," Liu Dongqiang immediately dispelled her plan, "You're the only one I want to talk to. "If it's someone else, I'm sorry, but I won't sign!"

Lin Xiaoqing felt helpless. This man was the same no matter how strong he was in space and time.

"I know." Patience. She took a deep breath. Patience.

"Very well," he said, smiling with satisfaction. "I hope we will have a happy cooperation."

With that, he turned and left, leaving Lin Xiaoqing standing there with a blank look on her face, as if she had already boarded a pirate ship. He was already on a pirate ship.

From that day on, she began to feel uneasy.

Of course, he could tell, but he wasn't sure of the real reason, but he felt it was strange enough that she was the one to sign the contract. Plus, Lin Xiaoqing had been troubled since that day, but she couldn't find out why.

After that, there were some vulgar whispers in the company. Not in front of him, of course, but unfortunately he did.

Someone said that Chef Liu was deeply attracted by the young and beautiful Lady Boss and had his soul taken away. Thus, the Lady Boss went along with the flow and used her beauty to tempt the other party to achieve this cooperation.

There were also people who said that the Lady Boss's first move was a beauty trap. Chef Liu was so young, and he couldn't stand such a young woman's allure … In short, it was extremely unpleasant to hear, as if he had already been cuckolded.

He was almost furious when he heard it, but he kept his temper and turned a deaf ear. He trusted his wife, but he didn't trust the man named Liu.

As a man, he was able to see through Liu Dongqiang's heart, spleen, lungs and kidneys. He was a person that loved beauties, and he also clearly understood just how attractive Lin Xiaoqing was in the eyes of men.

Therefore, on the day of the contract signing, although he looked like he was going out to work, in reality, he had followed Lin Xiaoqing to that French restaurant.

His car was parked opposite the dining room, and through the French windows he saw her being led to the second floor.

He cursed in his heart. Half a month ago, he personally came here twice to negotiate, and both times, they talked in the restaurant on the first floor before being hastily sent away dejectedly. Yet, the second time she came here, she was' invited 'to come to the second floor? If that Liu animal had no other intentions, would you believe it? What the hell!

With that in mind, he turned off the engine and got out of the car to head for the dining room.

Upon stepping in, the waitress immediately came over and politely asked, "Sir, do you have a reservation?"

The waiter in front of him looked very young, as if he was a university student who came to work … College students are easier to scam.
