Chapter 104: Eat More Sea Urchins
After retaking their seats, without any prior consultation, Ye Qinru and Fu Yansheng both looked at Qi Yu and Su Jing’s expressions.
They saw that their faces were calm and their interaction was harmonious. In comparison, when they had left, the atmosphere had still been a bit tense.
These two were both people with extensive experiences and it was immediately obvious that Su Jing’s attitude had loosened up. He might even be interested to talk about the HZ Technology.
Ye Qinru joked, “You guys have been chatting for so long, Mr. Fu and I next door have gotten so hungry our stomachs have started to rumble.”
Qi Yu was surprised. “You didn’t order anything to eat?”
Fu Yansheng smiled and said, “You asked us to withdraw for a while but Chief Ye thought we were just supposed to wait next door. He didn’t dare to order food at first.”
Su Jing narrowed his eyes and said, “Is it really necessary for the two of you to act so much like you’re facing some horrible enemy? We were just chatting. You’re acting like I’m here to bully your boss.”
Ye Qinru: “Eh, you’ve got no right to talk with how you drove us out and insisted on speaking with him in private. How old is President Qi? Can you blame us for being nervous?”
Su Jing snorted with a smile: “Your Chief Qi speaks so well, how could I possibly bully him? I am no match for him.”
Hearing what Su Jing said, Ye Qinru became more and more curious about what they had just talked about. Just what method did Qi Yu use to get Su Jing to appear so relaxed like this…
He then heard Qi Yu say, “How can that be? It was clearly President Su’s foresight and wisdom which enlightened me so deeply.”
Su Jing smiled and said: “Okay, let’s stop blowing farts about each other, alright? Isn’t Chief Ye hungry? The sashimi’s ice block is already a little melted, let’s eat quickly.”
Qi Yu said to Ye Qinru, “Today is only a dinner between friends. In the future, there will be no need for President Ye to be too serious.”
Ye Qinru understood what Qi Yu meant and gave up all attempt to prove any further. He made a “Please, you first.” gesture towards Su Jing.
When Fu Yansheng saw that Su Jing nab a piece of sea urchin, he remembered something and said, “Didn’t Wu Shuang say that you’re allergic to this?”
I’m only allergic to oysters, not sea urchins.” Ye Qinru put a piece of fresh sea urchin meat into his mouth and narrowed his eyes, “I see that you don’t pay much attention to my Weibo.”
Fu Yansheng raised his eyebrows: “I’m not him. How could I possible know about something you posted such a long time back?”
This remark cheered up Ye Qinru. “I knew I should have brought Wu Shuang with me today. He likes to eat sushi, sashimi and these types of things.”
Su Jung listened a bit and asked, “Who is Wu Shuang?”
Ye Qinru: “Our administrative assistant in Si Yuan Group’s Technology Development Department. You saw him last time in Yancheng.”
Su Jing: “Oh, that little young man.”
Ye Qinru said proudly, “He’s a fan of mine. He’s even the kind of die-hard fan who has followed my Weibo for many years. He admires me very much.”

Su Jing wondered, “Really? Why didn’t it seem to me that he admired you?”

Fu Yansheng & Qi Yu: “…”

Su Jing gave a strange laugh. “Chief Ye seems quite knowledgeable. With how it seems like you need it to supplement your body, you must indulge quite often, huh?”
Ye Qinru groaned, “As much as I’d love to indulge, there really is no place for me to do so.”
Su Jing: “That can’t be. Doesn’t everyone say you’re a ‘friend of women’? Why do you not even have a partner to indulge with?”
Ye Qinru: “Who said that I’m a ‘friend of women’? Those are all my girlfriend fans!”
Su Jing: “If I remember correctly, you seem to be an emotion blogger on Weibo? Your Weibo is dedicated to answering various emotional questions. I’ve read a few of them and I thought you must have already passed a thousand sails.”
Ye Qinru: “I just have a more mature view of love~”
Su Jing: “So you’re still a virgin?”
Ye Qinru almost spit out a mouthful of sea urchin meat…
Listening to the two of them, Qi Yu wanted to laugh but then, at this moment, Fu Yansheng gestured at him with his chopsticks.
Qi Yu looked down and saw in front of him, a small plate full of sea urchin meat that had already been picked out. The man’s low voice immediately sounded in his ear: “To replenish your stores.”
Qi Yu: “…”
Ye Qinru and Su Jing were chatting and chatting. When they finally stretched out their chopsticks, wanting to get another piece, they were stunned. “Why are they all gone?”
Qi Yu coughed lightly. “I’ll call for another plate.”
During the latter half of their meal, the four of them didn’t talk about business anymore. Instead, they only talked about the food and they were quite relaxed and happy as they ate their meal.”
It wasn’t until he got up after their meal that Qi Yu said to Su Jing, “President Su, HZ Technology is a good company. If you can’t accept an acquisition by the Si Yuan Group, I can also let the Group’s investment firm turn its eyes to you and your company. If there is anything you need in the future, please don’t hesitate to speak to me.”
Su Jing stretched out his hand and said, “Then I’ll thank you in advance.”
When the two shook hands, Qi Yu looked into his eyes and whispered, “No one likes to be betrayed, but if it is a struggle against deception and power, I can understand.”
Su actually opened his mouth, dumbfounded.
Qi Yu: “I’m glad to have made you a friend today.”
Su Jing smiled and said, “Me too. I will consider what you said today when I go back.”
Ye Qinru’s eyes lit up when he heard these words. Su Jing saying that he would “consider” it was already the best result he could have expected.
However, being able to create a crack in this ever-vigilant and obstinate barrier of a man, Ye Qinru couldn’t help but have deep respect for Qi Yu. As soon as Su Jing left, he couldn’t wait to ask, “Chief Qi, what did you tell him while we were away?”
Qi Yu: “I just asked him about what I wanted to know — why he created HZ and his long-term plans.”
Ye Qinru’s eyes widened. “That’s the only thing you talked about?”
“En,” Qi Yu told them everything that Su Jing had said to him, “HZ is just a springboard for him. He wants to engage in high-tech medical treatments in the future.”
Fu Yansheng listened and commented, “This person is quite ambitious. But this thing he wants to do isn’t going to be easy.”
Ye Qinru was still not satisfied after hearing this, “How did you get him to tell you these thing?”
This question stumped Qi Yu, same as how Fu Yansheng was stumped when he’d asked him why 1+1 was equals 2. after a while, he said, confused, “I said, even if I want to invest in him, I have to know what kind of person he is. I told him I wanted to hear him tell me about HZ Technology?”
Ye Qinru said, somewhat dumbfounded, “We met with him twice before and we also inquired about his future plans, but he told us nothing!”
Qi Yu: “…”
Although they way Ye Qinru and Fu Yansheng saw it, today’s result already showed good momentum, to Qi Yu, who was one of the parties involved, just now, he still hadn’t been sure about Su Jing’s thoughts.
After all, he had faced off against a senior in the business world who was older and more experienced than himself. Moreover, the other party was a technical genius. Even a bigshot like Lei Hong favored this person and even when he was betrayed, he didn’t spare any cost to try to get him back. It was impossible for Qi Yu not to feel any pressure.
After he’d said “I want win-win situation” to Su Jing just now, Su Jing still didn’t say anything. Instead, he took the initiative to cut off the topic and Qi Yu called Ye Qinru and Fu Yansheng back.
Seeing Ye Qinru’s reaction now, Qi Yu felt relieved.
Ye Qinru said again, “Anyway, today’s result was already very good. But Chief Si’s side still doesn’t know that we came to see Su Jing today. Do you want me to report to him later?”
Qi Yu nodded. “Ask him to temporarily slow down his plans. Tell him not to do anything that might provoke others.”
Ye Qinru wondered, “Provoke?”
Qi Yu pondered: “Su Jing is very, very vigilant. Didn’t you say that Si Ze was looking for other means? I’m afraid Si Ze might accidentally do something to offend him and it might anger him again.”
In fact, Qi Yu thought about one possibility before he came here – Su Jing was unwilling to sell control of HZ Technology. Could it be that he himself wasn’t the one who had actual control of this company and that there was someone else behind him?
But after speaking with the other party in person, Qi Yu dismissed this idea. Judging from Su Jing’s reaction, this person must have been deeply influenced by the past incident with Lei Hong, resulting in no sense of security in his heart, so he wanted to hold everything within his grasp.
——His and Fu Yansheng’s previous inferences were correct. This was a person for whom broken jade was better than intact tile. The only way to interact with him was to exchange heart for heart.
Ye Qinru said, having understood, “I’ll just say tell him that you’ve persuaded Su Jing to keep in touch with us so we’ll wait and see.”
Qi Yu didn’t explain much to Ye Qinru. Once he got back to the hotel with Fu Yansheng, the two conducted another round of detailed review. After listening to Qi Yu’s recollection of events, even Fu Yansheng couldn’t help but praise him.
Qi Yu knew in his heart that he was able to perform like that today due to Fu Yansheng’s year-and-a-half-year teaching and his subtle influence over him.
Compared to a few months ago, when he met with Si Hang, he had to keep reminding himself to control his emotions and focus on the needs and goals of the other party. This time, when facing Su Jing, he could do it naturally without thinking. At this point, even in the middle of the negotiation, he can freely use the negotiating skills that Fu Yansheng taught him.
Towards such a good teacher and helpful friend, Qi Yu was undoubtedly grateful. This kind of thinking, to some extent, dissipated his annoyance at Fu Yansheng for hiding something from him. It made him feel even more powerless.
The two showered and went to bed. Qi Yu said to Fu Yansheng, “I want to meet up with Xu Jing within the next couple of days.”
Fu Yansheng: “You want to catch up with him?”
Qi Yu: “En. While I’m at it, I’m going to discuss with him about HZ Technology since I promised Su Jing I’d consider investing in him. I should mention it to Xu Jing.”
Fu Yansheng: “Do you want me to go with you?”
Qi Yu: “No, I’ll go on my own.”
Fu Yansheng’s hand that was rubbing his head paused and didn’t move for a while.
Qi Yu tilted his head to look at the other party, only to be met with the sight of Fu Yansheng looking at her with a disappointed and frustrated but tender look on his face. He couldn’t help but say, “What’s wrong?”
Fu Yansheng: “It feels like you are becoming more and more independent…”
Qi Yu: “Isn’t that a good thing? Didn’t you say you wanted me to ‘grow up soon’?”
“Of course, it’s a good thing.” Fu Yansheng leaned over to kiss him and at the same time, his hands began to move, “Let’s see if today’s sea urchins had any effect…”
Qi Yu dodged while saying vaguely, “I haven’t even digested it yet. How could it have such a quick effect!”
Fu Yansheng laughed softly: “But you’re already getting a reaction.”
“…Oh!” Qi Yu narrowed his eyes and was quickly brought into the mood by the other party.
Afraid that he’d catch Xu Jing while he was busy at work, Qi Yu sent a message to him early the next morning, Xu Jing replied quickly and the two made an appointment to meet up at noon that day.
“…You’ll handle your own lunch?” Qi Yu looked in the mirror with his back to Fu Yansheng. When he saw the red marks on his neck, he grumbled in a low voice, “Why’d you have to kiss so high?”
When Fu Yansheng heard him, he walked over and personally tied Qi Yu’s necktie. He stroked the red mark that was covered by the neckline of his shirt and said with a smile, “This way, it can’t be seen.”
