Xia Weilan never expected to run into Mo Beichen here. Moreover, from the way Han Yishi had addressed him just now, it seemed that the two of them had a special relationship.
"Hey!" Han Yishi spotted Xia Weilan the moment she walked in with her agent. "Miss, do you have something to do?"
Xia Weilan couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth. Han Yishi had just called Mo Beichen "uncle", but now he was calling her "miss". At this moment, Xia Weilan was a bit confused and just instinctively replied,
"I'm here to discuss a cooperation."
As she spoke, Xia Weilan had already walked up to the two of them.
The room was dimly lit, with a unique and elegant charm. Xia Weilan looked at Mo Beichen. His facial features flickered in the light, making it hard to see clearly. Only his eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky.
Xia Weilan thought that this dining place was really strange. It was broad daylight, but they were dining in a place like this with the lights on. How eccentric was Han Yishi?
"Cooperation?" Han Yishi looked at the agent, but only saw the agent retreating behind Mo Beichen without showing any sign.
"Miss, which company are you from?" Han Yishi curiously leaned towards Xia Weilan. Unexpectedly, at this moment, Mo Beichen suddenly coughed heavily. His cold voice was like a sharp sword,
"Sit properly! You're so unruly. What kind of behavior is this!"
Han Yishi, who had half - stretched his body, froze and then retreated back to his original position.
A hint of a smile flashed in Xia Weilan's eyes. Then she asked Mo Beichen, who looked serious,
"Why are you here too?"
"You two know each other?" Han Yishi blinked his long and slender phoenix eyes, looking quite surprised.
Mo Beichen didn't even glance at Han Yishi. His eyes were always fixed on Xia Weilan's injured arm. Seeing that she looked calm, it should not be that serious anymore.
While feeling relieved, Mo Beichen replied,
"Yishi is a distant relative of mine. The old man entrusted me to discipline him well."
"What discipline? It's clearly to ask you to take good care of me..." Han Yishi couldn't help but mutter, but was interrupted by a glance from Mo Beichen.
Xia Weilan watched as Han Yishi dared not show his anger. It was quite different from his chivalrous and brave image in the movies. At this moment, he was like a cat seeing a tiger and instantly became submissive.
"In that case, if I want to discuss cooperation with him, doesn't it mean that you have the final say?" Xia Weilan looked at Mo Beichen with her beautiful eyes curving.
"Yes. Sit down and talk about what you want..." Mo Beichen said.
Xia Weilan didn't expect that after all these twists and turns, she would end up back with Mo Beichen. She quickly pulled out a chair and sat down.
"Sit here." Mo Beichen frowned slightly when he saw Xia Weilan sitting directly beside Han Yishi. He immediately pointed to the seat next to him.
Hearing this, Xia Weilan immediately moved to sit beside him and said,
"Beichen, I want Yishi to endorse Z International Jewelry. What do you think?"
Xia Weilan blinked her eyes, which were as lively as an elf's.
"Okay!" Mo Beichen replied without hesitation.
"What? Jewelry? I won't take that kind of advertisement!" Han Yishi immediately jumped up when he heard this.
The agent quickly walked over and pulled Han Yishi back to his seat, persuading him, "If the boss asks you to take it, you should take it. Have you forgotten which company you're working for?"
Xia Weilan's eyes widened in surprise, as if she had heard something incredible. She knew that Han Yishi worked for the largest entertainment company in the country, and the behind - the - scenes boss of that entertainment company had always been very mysterious. Unexpectedly... it was actually her husband's industry?
Han Yishi was in a bit of a dilemma at the moment. He looked at Mo Beichen and hesitated, "So should I agree or not?"
"What do you think?" Mo Beichen said coldly, gently tapping his index finger on the table, as if hitting Han Yishi's heart.
"Hehe." Han Yishi forced out a couple of laughs.
Seeing this, the agent held back his laughter and carefully retreated outside the door.
When closing the door, the agent couldn't hold it back anymore and showed a big smile on his face. Usually, he was always the one being bullied by Han Yishi. But Han Yishi, this little "king of hell", would only turn into a little white rabbit when facing Mo Beichen. Moreover, it was a little white rabbit with its neck bitten, unable to struggle at all.
"I don't like to be a jewelry spokesperson either, but there's always an exception. I'll just... just..." Han Yishi wanted to find an excuse for himself, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with a good reason.
"Yishi, this jewelry is not ordinary. It's Z International Jewelry, which is always known for its individuality and flamboyance. It suits you very well. You don't have to worry about ruining your image," Xia Weilan gave him a reasonable explanation.
"Okay, then I'll take it." Han Yishi immediately said. Then his eyes swept back and forth between Xia Weilan and Mo Beichen. He always felt that there was something special between the two of them.
"By the way, miss, what's your name and which company are you from?" Han Yishi asked curiously.
"My name is Xia Weilan. I'm from Xia's Jewelry Company." Xia Weilan reached out her hand and said politely.
"Nice to meet you," Han Yishi shook hands with her and immediately felt closer to her. "It makes sense then. The Xia family and the Mo family are family friends. And uncle may very well marry the eldest daughter of the Xia family. The old man has been talking about it for years, saying that Xia Ruolin from the Xia family is very talented..."
Although Han Yishi was a distant relative of Mo Beichen, he took his mother's surname. So few people knew about the relationship between Han Yishi and Mo Beichen.
However, at this moment, Han Yishi's words changed the expressions of the two people present.
"Shut up!" Mo Beichen interrupted Han Yishi on the spot.
Xia Weilan kept silent. She didn't expect that Old Man Mo, who had been so kind to her, actually preferred Xia Ruolin before.
Xia Weilan thought that if she hadn't appeared, Xia Ruolin might really have married Mo Beichen.
"Did I ever say that I would marry her? When will you learn to be more careful with your words!" Mo Beichen's harsh words interrupted Xia Weilan's train of thought. She immediately came to her senses and thought that Mo Beichen was right. He didn't like Xia Ruolin at all.
"Yes, yes, yes. I said the wrong thing. You have high standards." Han Yishi pouted and closed his mouth.
Just then, the door was pushed open, and a waiter walked in with several dishes.
"Give these two vegetarian dishes to him. He's on a diet!" Mo Beichen directed the waiter, pointing to the two green vegetables for Han Yishi.
Han Yishi's face fell. He looked like he was about to cry but didn't dare to say anything.
Actually, he didn't understand what he had done to make Mo Beichen unhappy. Why did Mo Beichen suddenly get angry?
Xia Weilan lowered her head and was about to pick up her chopsticks when she realized that the injury on her left hand made it inconvenient for her. Once it bumped into the table, it would hurt.
Xia Weilan awkwardly changed her hand position several times, but then a hand reached out and took her chopsticks. Immediately afterwards, Mo Beichen's deep voice came, "What do you want to eat? I'll pick it up for you."
"That braised pork belly and the crayfish..." Xia Weilan said generously.
Next, Han Yishi watched in disbelief as his uncle actually picked up those dishes and fed them directly into Xia Weilan's mouth.
Han Yishi stopped chewing on the vegetable root, as if he had been frozen. His eyes flashed several times.
Was his uncle trying to seduce Xia Weilan with such attentiveness?
When had he ever seen his uncle be so considerate to a woman?
But his uncle was already 26 years old, and Xia Weilan didn't look even 20!
Han Yishi only felt that his once inviolable uncle suddenly had a secret. He actually liked someone so young...
