Gu Xiuyu stepped forward and said, "It's all too coincidental. I didn't expect you to be here to meet President Wu as well."
Indeed, it was unexpected.
Facing the Ye Corporation and the Gu Corporation, which would Wu Corporation choose to cooperate with?
Ye Chenhan glanced at Ye Ziyu, his gaze lingering on President Wu.
In Hai City, Wu Corporation ranked first. Ye Corporation's expansion of business always followed a strategy of strong alliances.
"Since you both know each other, let's not stand around. Please come in," President Wu said. He personally led the way, and a large group of people entered the conference room.
Gu Xiuyu deliberately chose a seat opposite Ye Ziyu. As he looked up, they met each other's eyes.
"It seems that President Ye didn't tell you everything when you two arrived," President Wu said to Ye Ziyu and Ye Chenhan once they were seated.
Was there still a hidden agenda?
Ye Ziyu looked at President Wu, puzzled.
Seeing their expressions, President Wu continued, "Ye Corporation is currently cooperating with Gu Corporation. After discussions between President Ye and President Gu, Wu Corporation will join the project, acting as a local Hai City enterprise to promote cooperation among the three parties."
Promote tripartite cooperation?
Ye Ziyu looked at Gu Xiuyu. Earlier, his words outside suggested he was unaware, but listening to President Wu, he seemed to have discussed it with Ye Shaoting in advance. Under their gaze, Gu Xiuyu noticed Ye Ziyu's suspicion and quickly explained, "I came here representing Ye Corporation and Gu Corporation. I didn't expect President Ye to also arrange for you and Chenhan to come."
Gu Xiuyu wasn't lying. This was all arranged by Ye Shaoting specifically to foster their connection.
To discern if someone is lying, one must look into their eyes. Gu Xiuyu's eyes were bright when he explained, and he didn't seem to be lying.
It seemed she had misunderstood.
"I understand what President Wu said. What do we need to do now?" Ye Ziyu asked sincerely.
This was her first experience with three parties collaborating.
President Wu turned his head, and his assistant immediately handed him the documents.
With everyone's attention drawn to the documents, no one had the spare energy to focus on anything else.
After reviewing them, Ye Ziyu realized something. According to the plan, she would be visiting Hai City frequently in the future.
Would it still be them? Ye Ziyu involuntarily looked at Gu Xiuyu. Through this cooperation, they seemed to be tied together. Although she wanted to keep a distance, reality was making their connection increasingly close.
Sensing her gaze, Gu Xiuyu looked up and gently asked Ye Ziyu, "What's wrong? Is there anything you don't understand?"
He leaned forward, as if about to cross the table and reach Ye Ziyu's side.
"No, I was just wondering when the project will officially start," Ye Ziyu replied.
It had been a week since they reached the cooperation agreement, and it hadn't officially begun. Now with Wu Corporation joining, the more people involved, the more complicated things would become.
Upon hearing the reason, Gu Xiuyu immediately said, "Once we return to Sijiu City, the project will officially launch. We'll be quite busy then, so you'll have to work hard for a while."
Hard work was not a concern; Ye Ziyu was accustomed to working from morning till night when she was abroad.
After a brief discussion, their mission in Hai City was completed. As they awkwardly exited the conference room, Ye Chenhan received a call from Ye Shaoting.
In Sijiu City, Ye Shaoting had timed his call perfectly, calculating that they would have already learned about the tripartite cooperation.
"Is everything going smoothly?"
"Big brother, why didn't you explain beforehand? When we first saw President Gu, we thought Gu Corporation was going to compete with our Ye Corporation for the cooperation."
Listening to Ye Chenhan's complaint, Gu Xiuyu smiled and walked over to Ye Ziyu.
"You thought so too?"
"Yes, a little, at first."
Gu Xiuyu's lips curved into a wider smile, and he couldn't help but say indulgently, "You're so cute!"
As he finished speaking, the elevator doors in front of them opened.
