“Not too bad,” Rosiley answered without raising her head. Her tone was indifferent, and one could not tell whether she was happy or upset.
“What do you mean, ‘not too bad’?” Such an ambiguous answer was no different from her not answering.
“I mean that the situation is quite optimistic.” Rosiley put down her spoon and looked up at her. “Those shareholders are my father’s old friends. They don’t need me to ask, they’ll help me.”
“Really? Does that mean we’re sure to win?” Ying Xiaoxiao looked at her expectantly.
“No.”
This indifferent word instantly wrecked Ying Xiaoxiao’s high spirits.
“Why not?” Those shareholders had decided to help her, so why wouldn’t they definitely win?
Rosiley took a sip of the soup and answered, “There’s one shareholder whose attitude is not clear. Although he said that he won’t be supporting either of us, I’m afraid he will be pulled over to Rorey’s side.”
Ying Xiaoxiao heard her and became somewhat anxious. “Then let’s hurry and think of a way.”
She thought for a moment and said, “We can entice him with more benefits. But I’m not sure if he will agree.”
“If things were so easy to resolve, sister-in-law wouldn’t have such a headache.”
At this moment, Corey’s voice resounded from behind her. She immediately turned her head back, and a figure flashed before her eyes. She instantly turned to the other side.
She saw Corey sit down beside her with a plate in his hands, grinning at her.
Ying Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes. She said in a vexatious tone, “COE Lu, what’s your wise opinion?”
“I don’t have any.” Corey’s reply was quick and candid.
“F**k!” Ying Xiaoxiao could not help cursing. “since you don’t have any, then don’t interrupt our conversation.”
Corey raised his eyebrows. “I’m here to think of a solution with you gals, aren’t I?”
Ying Xiaoxiao snickered, then turned her head away, totally ignoring him.
Rosiley smiled broadly at the two of them and teased. “See, you two are really compatible.”
“Her?”
“Him?”
Ying Xiaoxiao and Corey exchanged glances before turning their heads away simultaneously. They both had looks of disgust on their faces.
“See, you two have such rapport. And you still say you aren’t compatible.”
Rosiley continued teasing them, as if eager to stir up trouble.
“I…”
“I…”
The two of them spoke at the same time again. When they saw Rosiley’s engaged expression, Ying Xiaoxiao became enraged. She yelled at Corey, “Can you not mimic me?”
Corey shook his head in amusement. “You think too much. Who’s mimicking you?”
“You…”
Ying Xiaoxiao had wanted to say more, but her head was rapped lightly by someone. She immediately raised her head.
It was Yayoi.
She said, disagreeing, “Xiaoxiao, we’re here to help Rosiley, not to watch you two bicker.”
Her words caused Ying Xiaoxiao to realize what she was doing. She smiled in embarrassment. “Sorry, I forgot.”
After that, she turned her head and snorted coldly. “I’m in a good mood today, so I won’t argue with you.”
Her attitude was like saying, “I’m letting you off today, so you’d better be deeply grateful for my kindness.”
Corey shook his head as if he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He said no more.
Yayoi and Rosiley exchanged glances and started to laugh.
