The CEO is Too Fierce: My Adorable Wife Needs Taming

Chapter 298 I Will Come to See You

Chapter 298 I Will Come to See You

Li Chenxu didn't use a definitive tone, but his doubtful and uncertain expression convinced the government official that the previous executives who had left were indeed leaving for this reason.

Human desires have no bottom line, and the former CEOs who left were generally not good people either; the government was well aware of their insatiable nature.

Moreover, in their view, Li Chenxu was not the kind of person who would use such methods of sowing discord.

Now that he's said it, naturally no one will doubt it.

The people on the government side were furious and couldn't recover from Li Chenxu's words for a long time. Li Chenxu, on the other hand, remained unmoved, looking as calm as ever.

"The higher-ups have already given instructions that this cooperation must be finalized tonight. I brought the contract with me today, but these people have already left!"

"You brought the contract with you? So, you've already decided on the partner?"

Li Chenxu spoke at the right moment, glancing at the government official as he spoke. Although his expression was indifferent, a sense of oppression could be seen in his eyes.

Upon seeing this, the government officials felt a chill run down their spines. They thought about Li Chenxu's previous interactions with them and his usual character, and their hearts began to pound with apprehension.

He forced a stiff smile, and after a while, he said somewhat awkwardly to Li Chenxu, "I've been considering this for a long time, haven't I? I did plan to have Mr. Li and his family cooperate with the government before, but the higher-ups disagreed, so I simply found a few other companies. But now they don't cherish the opportunity, so this time, it's just Mr. Li and his family cooperating."

This is utter nonsense. Li Chenxu sneered inwardly, but on the surface he nodded with a serious expression and said, "I know you have difficulties, but things have come to this point, so this is the only way."

Regardless of whether the people from the government have any connection with Ge Yun's side or want to harm Li Chenxu, they are still government officials. They must first complete the tasks assigned by their superiors before they are qualified to do anything else.

Now that things have come to this point, he has no other choice but to sign a contract with Li Chenxu.

It was already quite late, so the two of them didn't dare to delay anything. They briefly discussed the specifics of the cooperation and then signed the contract.

This man already had something to hide, and now that he had finished his business, he naturally had no desire to drink and chat with Li Chenxu anymore. He made up one or two excuses and left the private room.

Once everyone had left, Lin Zhu, who had been holding back for so long, finally couldn't contain himself any longer and said to Li Chenxu with a hint of excitement, "Sir, it's done!"

Li Chenxu remained calm, merely chuckling at the words. He glanced at the contract in his hand before finally saying, "Don't be so happy so quickly. This guy isn't as stupid as we think. Even if he hasn't recovered yet, he'll realize we were just playing him once things have calmed down in a couple of days."

Such a big matter, even if Anren has no suspicions, he certainly won't let the people go so easily. He will definitely try every means to retaliate against those who left today.

At that time, after a little negotiation between the two sides, the truth will come out.

At that time, Li Chenxu could be said to have offended both sides.

Strictly speaking, it's not something to be particularly happy about.

However, such backstabbing and intrigue are common in the business world. Even if other company bosses harbor resentment towards Li Chenxu, they wouldn't dare to do anything to him directly.

That leaves only the government official in charge, who was originally in cahoots with Ge Yun. Now that he's offended him, Li Chenxu doesn't care.

Thinking of this, Li Chenxu felt a little better. He didn't say anything more, and after having Assistant Lin put the contract away, he went home.

It was almost eleven o'clock when he got back. Mu Xiaoyu was usually quite sleepy and would have been asleep by this time in the past, but with so many things happening now, she couldn't fall asleep until Li Chenxu returned.

So when Mu Xiaoyu stood in front of her floor-to-ceiling window and saw Li Chenxu's car returning from afar, she ran out without even having time to put on her clothes. As soon as Li Chenxu got out of the car, she threw herself into his arms.

"It's so late today!"

Mu Xiaoyu hugged Li Chenxu tightly. Although she didn't say anything about being nervous, her hands gripping Li Chenxu's clothes tightly betrayed her emotions.

Li Chenxu's heart softened, and he was about to say something, but before he could finish speaking, he saw the thin clothes on Mu Xiaoyu's body and his brows immediately furrowed.

His expression darkened slightly. As he took off his suit jacket, he scolded, "Why didn't you wear some clothes before coming out? What if you catch a cold?"

Li Chenxu is now increasingly doting on Mu Xiaoyu, but he becomes extremely serious when it comes to issues concerning Mu Xiaoyu.

Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu shrugged guiltily, but didn't loosen her grip on Li Chenxu's arm: "I just wanted to see you as soon as possible..."

Li Chenxu's expression immediately softened, and the corners of his lips, which had been tightly pursed due to a hint of anger, unconsciously turned up slightly.

He put his arm around Mu Xiaoyu's shoulder and led her home, saying, "This is the last time. No matter how much you want to see me in the future, you have to take care of yourself. Besides... you don't have to do anything, I'll come back to see you myself."

"That's different."

Mu Xiaoyu retorted softly, then secretly glanced at Li Chenxu, noticing his slightly red earlobes, and couldn't help but laugh. She reached out and gently touched Li Chenxu twice, finally saying with a smile, "Brother Chenxu, I've noticed your skin is getting thinner and thinner."

Upon hearing this, Li Chenxu immediately glared at Mu Xiaoyu. He didn't say anything, but just covered his mouth and coughed lightly before taking Mu Xiaoyu home.

This demeanor clearly indicates that she is trying to hide her shyness.

Seeing his expression, Mu Xiaoyu laughed even harder. After returning home, she caught Li Chenxu and teased him mercilessly.

It's not that she's bad; it's just that Li Chenxu tormented her too much yesterday.

She's just teasing Li Chenxu now; it's too easy for him.

"Xiaoyu! If you keep moving around on me, you'll be the one who suffers in the end."

When Li Chenxu got home, he still had some documents to review. He was in his study at the moment. Mu Xiaoyu, contrary to her usual behavior, was nestled in Li Chenxu's arms reading a novel. Not only that, she kept squirming in his arms.
