After crossing, I was miserable.

Chapter 241 Head-to-head confrontation

Qian Duoduo has her own private room and a spacious office area here.

Together, they form a unique and distinctive independent courtyard.

This courtyard is quite far away from the normal courtyards.

It is as peaceful and tranquil as a paradise.

The surrounding environment is quiet and pleasant, making people feel relaxed and happy.

So it is a good place to rest and work independently.

Because usually only people inside the villa know about it,

Therefore, when Qian Duoduo heard the slight and rhythmic knock on the door,

I couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation in my heart.

She secretly speculated that it must be Wang Bo coming with a delicious lunch.

So when the knocking on the door continued, Qian Duoduo's mouth curled up slightly.

He stood up happily and walked towards the door.

"It must be Wang Bo who is here. I didn't expect him to be ready so quickly. It just so happens that I..."

When the tightly closed door was slowly pushed open,

Qian Duoduo was delighted to think that he would see a table full of delicious food.

However, reality gave her an unexpected "surprise" - what was standing at the door was not the delicious food she had imagined.

But it’s Chu Yan!

This sudden change caught Qian Duoduo off guard.

Her eyes widened and a look of astonishment appeared on her face.

"What's wrong? Mr. Qian doesn't welcome me?"

"How is this possible? Master Chu, please come in quickly!"

As she spoke, she walked quickly towards him.

He then opened the gate completely and made a gesture of invitation.

Murong Yun saw the young man Qian Duoduo called Mr. Chu.

He was dressed in a simple and elegant long gown, with a handsome face and walked in gracefully.

He smiled and nodded to Qian Duoduo.

After expressing his gratitude, he walked into the room with graceful steps.

After Chu Yan and An Ba went in, Qian Duoduo still peeked out of the yard.

I looked outside, but didn't see Wang Bai and the others.

Came back somewhat disappointed.

It seems that we have to wait a while longer.

Qian Duoduo quickly returned to the living room,

He glanced at Chu Yan who was already seated.

Then he looked at Murong Yun who was sitting in the upper seat and said:

"Murong Yun, this is Chu Yan, Master Chu.

He is also our business partner.”

"Mr. Chu, this is my cousin, Murong Yun."

Qian Duoduo briefly introduced the two people.

The moment Chu Yan stepped into the living room, a tense atmosphere filled the air.

He and Murong Yun looked at each other, their eyes met.

It seems to create sparks.

Chu Yan sat there, his figure straight as a pine tree.

Exuding an unparalleled aura of majesty,

Like a supreme ruler.

His eyes were like torches, fixed tightly on Murong Yun.

His eyes revealed an incomparable firmness and sharpness.

As if it could penetrate the other person's soul.

At this moment, time seemed to have stopped for him.

The only thing left in the world was the tense confrontation between the two of them.

The powerful aura emanating from Chu Yan,

Let the air around become heavy.

It seemed as if a thrilling war was about to break out.

However, facing such a fierce gaze, Murong Yun showed no fear at all.

Sitting there as steady as an old dog,

Even the sliding seat looked at Chu Yan nonchalantly.

While Chu Yan was looking at Murong Yun, Murong Yun was also looking at Chu Yan.

Because he could clearly feel the strong hostility emanating from Chu Yan,

It's like a volcano about to erupt, hot and dangerous.

Although he didn't know the specific reason, he was sure that the two of them didn't know each other at all.

The only intersection is Duoduo,

So, it’s probably because of Duoduo.

"Haha, this is interesting."

Murong Yun was not afraid of Chu Yan's powerful aura.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, forming a provocative smile.

This smile seemed to tell Chu Yan:

"Your aura has no effect on me.

I don't care about your provocation, but you have to accept my provocation."

Qian Duoduo stared at the two silent people in front of him with wide eyes. What were they doing?

They just stared at each other quietly.

They stared at each other, as if time had stopped.

The air around them seemed to become heavier.

It creates an indescribable tense atmosphere.

In this brief yet long gaze,

Qian Duoduo keenly noticed that the aura between the two people had undergone a subtle change.

One side exudes powerful confidence and majesty, like an unshakable mountain;

The other side reveals perseverance and courage, just like an extremely sharp sword.

This invisible collision of forces filled the entire space with the smell of gunpowder.

A fierce battle seems to be about to break out.

Just when Qian Duoduo thought the two men were about to fight,

Murong Yun suddenly threw a coquettish glance at Chu Yan.

Murong Yun simply wanted to disgust Chu Yan.

Then, just when Chu Yan was about to explode,

Qian Duoduo suddenly stood in front of Chu Yan and blocked Chu Yan.

"What are you doing? Do you want to die?" He asked Murong Yun again using mouth shapes.

What surprised Chu Yan was that

Qian Duoduo unexpectedly appeared in front of him without any warning.

And put on a protective posture!

This sudden change caught Chu Yan off guard.

But he was more shocked and confused - he really couldn't understand why Qian Duoduo would do such a thing?

You know, the person opposite is her own cousin...

Although he couldn't see Qian Duoduo's expression, nor did he hear what Qian Duoduo said,

But he knew that she must be protecting him.

Murong Yun thought to himself,

I wanted to make Chu Yan unhappy, but I also wanted to tease this guy a bit.

But I didn't expect Qian Duoduo to stand up.

There was no other way, so I shrugged my shoulders and looked helpless.

Then he casually picked up the pastries on the table and started eating.

"Mr. Chu, I'm so sorry!

This is my cousin. He likes to play tricks on people for fun.

I was just joking with you just now, please don't take it seriously."

As she spoke, she turned around and glared at Murong Yun fiercely.

Signal him to stop talking nonsense or making random expressions.

In order to change the subject, Qian Duoduo took the initiative to ask:

"Mr. Chu, is there anything you want to talk to me about?"

"Business partner? Master Chu?" Chu Yan whispered to himself what Qian Duoduo called him.

He remembered that she used to call him Brother Chu.

Why has it been changed to Master Chu now?

Chu Yan's facial expression, which had been gradually relaxing, suddenly became solemn.

It was as if shrouded in a layer of haze.

Just when this tense and depressing atmosphere was about to reach its freezing point,

The whole scene fell into a suffocating silence.

Time seems to have frozen.

Everyone can feel the invisible pressure gradually accumulating.

It seemed as if a storm was coming.

As everyone held their breath,

I dared not make a sound, for fear of breaking this fragile balance.

There was another knock on the door.

Qian Duoduo's worries were put down quietly.

This time it must be Wang Bo who brought lunch.

"It should be the butler who brought lunch.

If Mr. Chu doesn't mind, why don't we have lunch here and talk again."

"it is good."

This time Chu Yan answered very quickly.

Qian Duoduo swallowed, and she just politely gave way.

She thought Chu Yan would feel it was a disturbance given his status.

Then I left, but I didn't expect the answer to be so quick.

Chu Yan looked at Qian Duoduo's stunned expression, smiled slightly and said:

"Why, Mr. Qian is not welcome?

Or was it that you were just being polite and didn't really want to keep me for dinner?"

"That's not true. Of course I really hope you stay for a quick meal.

I just wonder if the food is to your liking?"

“If you haven’t tried it, how do you know if it suits your taste?

Go ahead, they're still knocking on the door."

"Oh, okay."

Qian Duoduo was sent by Chu Yan to open the door.

Seeing Wang Bo and the others coming over, he asked in a low voice:

"Why is it so late? How much did you prepare?

Mr. Chu from next door is coming over, so go prepare another portion."

“Don’t worry, sir.

On our way here, the waiter accidentally spilled the hot pot soup base, so we went to prepare a new one.

Just then I saw Master Chu coming this way.

I guess they will stay for dinner at this time.

I'll prepare an extra one."

Qian Duoduo nodded with satisfaction.

I hope that the delicious food will satisfy their stomachs when they eat.

Let them enjoy a peaceful hotpot meal.
