446: Chapter 446: The Beauty’s Worry!

The atmosphere of the meeting changed abruptly.

Everyone was laughing and joking for a while until Wu Jie spoke up again.

“Folks, stop kidding around,” he said.

“If we can’t predict how the three big rascals will bid, why fret about it?

Just go there tomorrow and throw out any bid.”

“Since we’ve done our best and the competition for the project has come to this point, we’ve nothing to be ashamed of.

So instead of guessing and stressing ourselves, we might as well go home early and get some sleep!”

Wu Jie said offhandedly.

In an instant, Tang Xiao’s pretty face turned red with anger, wishing she could roll up her sleeves and punch someone!

What nonsense?

To talk such nonsense in such a formal board meeting?

But…

no one got angry!

Everyone burst into laughter and started to sign off one by one.

Soon, only Tang Long was left online.

Trying to suppress his laughter, Tang Long’s face turned red.

“Jie’s right.

We’re not gods, how could we possibly guess the three rascals’ bids!”

“Alright!

Let it be, just bid anything tomorrow.

I won’t disturb the two of you sleeping any longer!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Long also went offline.

“Hey…

I haven’t had my say yet!”

Tang Xiao, staring at the screens going dark, turned her head irritably and glared at Wu Jie.

She huffed heavily.

Tang Xiao immediately stood up, stormed out with anger.

Wu Jie was not panicked at all, but simply offered a faint smile.

At this time, the woman wasn’t really angry!

It was just an overflow of embarrassment, a little coquettish tantrum!

Extinguishing the cigarette butt, Wu Jie left the meeting room with a leisurely swagger.

Back in the room.

Sure enough, Tang Xiao wasn’t sleeping or washing up.

Instead, she sat in the living room, holding paper and pen, deeply engrossed in writing and drawing.

Wu Jie glanced over and snickered as he closed the door.

“What are you doing, fortune-telling?” he teased.

“Mind your own business, go to sleep!” Tang Xiao didn’t even look up as she retorted with a pout.

Wu Jie chuckled and unhurriedly sat down beside Tang Xiao.

But Tang Xiao huffed and moved to the other end of the sofa.

“Tsk tsk!

Are you really angry?”

Tang Xiao said loudly, “Angry?

No way!

How could I be angry?

You’ve fought hard during the day and defeated three big rascals for me, so it’s only right that you want to sleep and rest!”

“Is that so?

Then why won’t you even lift your head?

Are you that afraid to look at me?” Wu Jie asked in jest.

Tang Xiao immediately looked up and glared at Wu Jie.

“I’ve looked, now go away!”

Wu Jie was at a loss for words.

“Damn it!”

“Damn what!

Hurry up and go to sleep.

I’m going to be busy all night; you don’t need to wait up for me!”

Saying this, Tang Xiao’s ears turned red, and she sneaked a glance at Wu Jie.

“Also…

that thing I owe you, I’ll make good on it another day!”

Wu Jie gave a chuckle.

“Fine, you keep busy.

I…

I’m going to clean up and sleep.

You just keep calculating!”

Tang Xiao huffed loudly again, continuing her pretend anger.

After a good while, when she heard the sound of water from the bathroom, confirming Wu Jie was taking a shower.

“Such a scoundrel!”

After muttering this under her breath, Tang Xiao went back to the living room to get her phone.

She connected to the Wi-Fi and checked her messages.

There were many messages, all congratulating the group for bringing glory to the country, winning this battle of the century.

Upon opening the mahjong group, it was even livelier inside.

There were countless unread messages.

Tang Xiao browsed through them casually, seeing quite a few small videos.

Especially at the group headquarters building, where a million voices sang together in a grand chorus.

Under the night sky.

People lit up the flashlights on their phones, waving flags in one hand and their phones in the other.

The streets seemed filled with countless stars.

Amidst the fluttering flags, people sang their hearts out.

The scene was magnificent and awe-inspiring.

It was enough to make one’s blood boil with excitement, and deeply moved.

As for the circle of friends, it was even livelier.

Too many people were posting videos and photos; it was as festive and joyful as if it were a national celebration all around the country.

The more Tang Xiao watched, the heavier her mood became.

The technical competition had already been won so beautifully.

If they lost the entire project due to a poor final bid, how regrettable would that be!

She really didn’t want to let the people down, to leave them with regrets.

Tang Xiao set her phone aside and focused her attention on pondering over the bid.

Wu Jie, after taking a shower, saw that Tang Xiao was still scribbling away.

He found her a nightgown from the suitcase and approached her from behind.

“It’s late, quickly take a shower and go to bed!”

After reminding her, Wu Jie went back to the bed to play with his phone and reply to messages.

Xu Xinyi was eager to liquidate her assets to immigrate abroad, so she kept pressing Wu Jie for an answer.

Wu Jie made an excuse of being overseas for a bid and fobbed her off for now.

Zhang Hao sent a video; the interior decoration of the store had already begun to take shape.

His father sent a message; they would take a high-speed train to Tianyuan tomorrow to attend the weekend wedding.

Wu Jie had already asked Yu Hui to pick them up.

They would go directly to the new house when they arrived.

However, Chu Yunxuan had also sent a private message.

Upon opening it, it turned out to be a short video.

Subconsciously glancing at the bathroom, Wu Jie turned the volume down to the lowest before opening it.

In the video, Chu Yunxuan was dressed in a white blouse and pencil skirt, with light makeup and hair draped over her shoulders.

She exuded an exquisite and exceptional urban beauty, and every smile and frown was particularly pleasing to the eye.

Her voice was soft and delicate as she reported on work, and she even made a point to congratulate him on winning the battle of the century.

But those enchantingly teasing eyes were truly meaningful!

Just as the video finished, Tang Xiao came out of the shower.

Wu Jie turned off his phone and immediately asked,

“Are you really planning to work through the night?”

Tang Xiao let out a sigh and sat down on the bed.

“It’s just one step away from success, I really don’t want to fail at the last hurdle and live with regret!”

After her lament, Tang Xiao picked up her paper and pen and continued with her calculations.

“They are definitely going to collude, so the price will either be very high or very low!”

“If they all bid around sixty billion, and we’re around forty billion, that would be considered an abnormally low bid!”

“If we bid around fifty billion and they bid thirty billion, then our slim lead would disappear!”

…

Suddenly!

Wu Jie reached out and captured Tang Xiao’s hand.

“Stop calculating!

You’re not a worm in their stomach, how could you know how much they’ll bid?”

“They can’t guess how much we’re going to bid either!”

“Plus, you think they’re going to collude, but have you ever considered that they might be in disarray internally?”

Tang Xiao was taken aback.

“Right!

People’s hearts are unfathomable.

Why didn’t I think of that?”

Wu Jie sighed,

“There are too many unpredictable possibilities; how could you guess correctly?”

“Countless people online are suggesting how we should bid, but they’re all arguing amongst themselves!”

“All those opinions and possibilities just prove that analysis and speculation are nonsense, and it might be better to just leave it to luck!”

Tang Xiao bit her red lips, deep in thought for a moment.

“Then what do you think we should bet on?”

“Look at how hesitant you are.

No matter what I say, you’ll still have your doubts!”

Wu Jie snatched Tang Xiao’s paper and pen away and tossed them onto the bedside table.

“Listen to me, get some sleep.

I’ll handle the bid tomorrow!”

“If we win the bid, it’s your credit; if we don’t and are hated and slandered, I’ll bear it all!”

“In any case, don’t think too much; if the sky falls, I’m still here to hold it up for you, aren’t I?”

Tang Xiao’s eyes warmed up slightly, and her gaze suddenly filled with deep affection.

What was a man?

This was a man!

Who needed indecision?

Someone who could think clearly and judge the situation, and who dared to take responsibility proactively!

“Jie, you’re so good to me!”

Tang Xiao’s eyes appeared delicate, overcome with emotion…
