Chapter 33: Choose Pei Song or me?

Zhou Dingyu's powerful aura was mixed with a bit of ruffian spirit, which made Xu Li's throat boil rapidly.

Her almond eyes flickered slightly, and her lips curled up in self-mockery:

"So, as long as I follow you, I only need to look at your face, Mr. Zhou, and flatter you alone?"

Hearing this, Zhou Dingyu paused. How could he not hear the weird tone of the woman in front of him?

He sneered , " I'll give you everything you want, that's fair, isn't it?"

Xu Li lowered her eyes, smiled bitterly and whispered , " Fair? Yes, it's better to be unable to hold your head up in front of one person than to bend your head in front of many people. Right?"

Zhou Dingyu smiled slightly, raised his eyebrows and said , " You can think so."

"Tsk—" Xu Li suddenly laughed sarcastically.

After a moment of silence, she raised her head again and looked directly into the man's teasing eyes. "Then I may have to disappoint you, Mr. Zhou."

After a pause, he said, "I don't want to be ashamed in front of you, and I don't want to be humble in front of so many people."

"Although I am in a difficult situation now, I have a company and employees. I want to rely on my own abilities to make the Xu Group recover."

"If you think Qiulin's project is worth investing in, then analyze and decide from the perspective of commercial value, rather than exchanging my flesh and blood for your charity."

After a pause, he said, "This time, I want to take a fair gamble."

She said this with full confidence.

Because no matter what, with the 5 million yuan in compensation from the Zhou family, plus the 5 million yuan from the deal with Zhou Dingyu, the wages owed last month have been paid, and now the morale of Xu's employees is basically stable.

Moreover, the reason why she drugged him was because the person in charge of the bidding for the Western Suburbs project blocked the Xu family from participating in the bidding.

She had no choice but to take advantage of him.

But this time Qiulin’s project was different, and the person in charge of the bidding did not block Xu.

Even if Zhou Dingyu is unwilling to cooperate, she can seek investment from others.

Besides, there has been no result on the letters of intent that have been submitted, and she doesn't believe that no one is interested in such a lucrative project.

"Heh ... " Hearing Xu Li say this, Zhou Dingyu chuckled, "Miss Xu is really ... ambitious."

Stubborn and stubborn.

Obstinate and refuse to repent!

He stood up straight, raised his chin slightly, and said, "Okay, since Miss Xu wants to be self-reliant, I don't mind giving you a chance."

"You are right. After evaluating Qiulin's project, it is indeed very profitable. I do have the intention to invest."

"But I am a person who loves excitement by nature."

"Let's make a bet. Let's bet on who will be the final winner in the contest between me and Vice President Pei."

"If Miss Xu wins the bet, I will invest in Qiulin's tourism project. I will cooperate with Xu Group to participate in the bidding."

Xu Li was slightly stunned , " Are you serious?"

Zhou Dingyu looked into Xu Li's eyes, as if smiling . " So you choose him? Or me?"

As soon as Zhou Dingyu asked this question, he stared at Xu Li.

Those peach blossom eyes were bright black and innocent, like a puppet in a window for people to choose from.

They are eagerly waiting for customers who come to shop to make their choices.

Being stared at by him like this, Xu Li felt uneasy for no reason.

Xu Li knew that the other party was not as harmless as he appeared.

She clenched her fingers and was about to say something when she heard footsteps getting closer outside.

Xu Li knew that Pei Song had returned.

Zhou Dingyu obviously heard it too. He leaned closer and whispered something that brushed past Xu Li's breath , " Ms. Xu, have you made up your mind? You only have one chance and it will be gone in a flash."

Xu Li's breathing tightened, and she blurted out , " I choose Pei Song."

"Heh ... " The smile on Zhou Dingyu's face froze and he remained silent until Pei Song's footsteps became closer and closer outside the door.

He lowered his eyes to hide the obscure and complex emotions in his eyes, nodded, and his low voice returned to cynicism , " Okay." He stood up at the same time.

Pei Song's gentle and smiling voice came from the door , " Mr. Zhou, let's get started."

--

Racecourse.

The sun was hiding in the clouds, and the sky had become gloomy.

Because the venue is located in the suburbs, there is no high-rise building blocking the view and the view is very wide.

The place must have been cleared on purpose. There was no one else in the place except the two tall and handsome horses, one black and one white, which were being led slowly towards the place.

Standing next to the black horse is Zhou Dingyu, and standing next to the white horse is Pei Song.

One of the two men is unruly and uninhibited, while the other is reserved and gentle.

People with completely different temperaments all looked towards her.

Xu Li stood in the stands, not knowing who to smile at. Her lips twitched slightly, and finally her eyes fell on Pei Song's handsome face.

He put his hands in front of his lips in a trumpet shape , " Pei Song! Come on!"

The sound of the wind carried her clear and powerful voice of cheering to the two men's ears.

Pei Song met her gaze, smiled and waved at her , " Okay!"

On the other hand, Zhou Dingyu, who was ignored, looked at him carefully and found that the man still looked indifferent to everything. It seemed that he was no different from usual.

But if you look carefully, you can find that there is a hint of darkness between his brows.

The air pressure is extremely low ...

Of course, Xu Li's focus was not on Zhou Dingyu, so she naturally did not see his expression at the moment.

She has figured it out.

No matter what, a man like Zhou Dingyu is as honest as his words and will not go back on his word.

The reason why she chose Pei Song was because she heard Zhou Dingyu say that Pei Song had won the second prize in some equestrian competition, so she thought that his ability should be good.

If Pei Song wins, Zhou Dingyu will agree to cooperate with Xu and bid for Qiulin's tourism project together ...

Xu Li was hoping that Pei Song would win.

So he waved to Pei Song and shouted even louder , " Keep going!"

The two men climbed onto the horses. They were both experienced and their movements were smooth and graceful, extremely elegant.

The wind was howling and the environment was gloomy. In Xu Li's eyes, this scene gave him a sense of the fearlessness of a hero ready to die before going to battle.

But soon, Xu Li shook her head, trying to get rid of these sudden ideas in her mind.

Talking to myself: It's just a small amateur competition, how did it get involved with the dead?

While she was daydreaming, the horses had already started moving.

The two men on horseback stood tall and unhurried, steering their horses slowly forward.

The first lap is a warm-up by default, so it is equivalent to strolling.

Pei Song deliberately lagged behind Zhou Dingyu by half a step, controlling the reins and following closely behind the black horse.

In a casual conversation , " Mr. Zhou often comes here?"

"It's not that common. I just run a few times when I feel like it."

With a casual tone and a relaxed posture, under the gloomy sky, half of the man's body is hidden in the shadows, making his aura even more powerful and unpredictable.

Pei Song has been in the business world for a long time, and he knows that if he wants to reach a deal, there is no reason not to please Party A.

What's more, he was truly impressed by Zhou Dingyu.

Naturally, they are willing to hold each other.

Then he greeted sincerely:

"Speaking of which, I have admired Mr. Zhou for a long time and have wanted to get to know him, but I never had the chance. Today, I am lucky enough to meet Mr. Zhou at the racecourse."

Zhou Dingyu smiled , " Vice President Pei is a little self-deprecating. Your name is also well-known. I heard that you worked for the late President Xu in your early years, and within a few years you became a general under President Xu."

Pei Song said modestly , " That's just Mr. Xu's appreciation."

"Vice President Pei is too modest." After a pause, Zhou Dingyu suddenly said, "Have you ever considered seeking a better job?"

Pei Song was slightly startled.

Zhou Dingyu chuckled , " Don't be nervous, I don't mean anything else. The Xu Group is now on the verge of collapse. If Vice President Pei has this idea, he can go anywhere. Why not just come to me and show off his skills?"

This is a clear olive branch.

Moreover, this olive branch is so tempting to anyone, comparable to winning the lottery!

But Pei Song expressed his opinion without even thinking about it:

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for thinking highly of me. I have no intention or plan to leave Xu's."

Zhou Dingyu raised his eyebrows , " Oh?" The man's lips curved upwards, but there was no smile in his eyes. He gave a fair evaluation.

"It seems that Vice President Pei has a deep affection for the Xu Group."

Hearing this, Pei Song's expression paused slightly, and his eyes involuntarily looked towards the thin and beautiful figure in the stands.

There was a firm and gentle look in his eyes as he nodded , " Yes."

Zhou Dingyu saw his actions and expressions, and a dark light flashed in his eyes for a moment.
