although chen yanzhuo's face was pressed against huo xiwen's, he was still staring at the door.

just as huo xiwen was confused by his kiss, the door that was originally tightly closed suddenly opened from the inside. a figure peeked out.

"mr. chen?" the other party seemed surprised to see chen yanzhuo.

at this time, chen yanzhuo raised his head and turned to look at the other party, revealing a surprised expression, "mr. shi?" didn't you go to j city? why are we here? "

mr. shi glanced at chen yanzhuo, then glanced at huo xiwen, who was in his arms, his face flushed red and his head lowered, "my friend who was supposed to meet with you had something to do with the cancellation of the meeting, so i didn't go. i was preparing to join your company's royal ball."

"so that's how it is." chen yanzhuo smiled and looked behind him. he vaguely saw that there seemed to be another person in the room, but he didn't say anything.

at this time, mister shi joked again, "i didn't expect mister chen to be so interested in getting excited …"

chen yanzhuo naturally knew what he was referring to. he grinned and said, "i don't like excitement, so why would i ask you, mr. shi, to do business."

"i like people like mr. chen who are reckless. since it's such a coincidence, since mr. chen has arrived at the door of my room, i might as well go in and have a seat. since it's convenient for us to talk about the goods, what do you think about it? " at this time, mister shi extended an invitation.

hearing huo xiwen's words, chen yanzhuo's eyes slightly narrowed, and he slightly squeezed huo xiwen's small hand with his big palm.

huo xiwen's heart tightened as he clenched his fist. he looked up at huo yuhao, and then said with a smile on his face, "that is naturally what i wish for. "however, please allow me to send my girlfriend to the reception first. she doesn't know anything about business matters."

as he spoke, he prepared to send huo xiwen off.

however, mister shi stuck out his hand and stopped her, "have we met this lady before? it was rare to run into one again, so it didn't matter if she went in to sit for a while. "what do you think?"

however, she could tell that chen yanzhuo didn't want her to enter that room, so she said, "it's better not to. i want to go in and see if you guys are talking business or not. i'll go to the venue and greet the guests for you. if someone asks about you, i'll explain it to them as well. "

"so it's like that …" at this time, mister shi seemed to be hesitating and wanted her to leave.

"since you're already here, you should at least have a cup of tea before leaving, right?" suddenly, a loud voice came from the room. although it wasn't very loud, the three of them had just happened to hear it.

chen yanzhuo's face darkened when he heard that voice. he turned around to look at huo xiwen and saw that she was at a complete loss as to what to do.

"please, the two of you …" mr. shi looked at chen yanzhuo and huo xiwen and made a "please" gesture towards them.

huo xiwen had always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't say what was wrong, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow chen yanzhuo into the room.

this was a business suite. after entering, he entered the living room and saw a middle-aged man around the age of forty or fifty sitting on the sofa. he looked mature, wore gla.s.ses, held a cigar in his mouth, and crossed his legs.

"this is?" after chen yanzhuo entered the room, he looked at the middle-aged man and asked curiously.

"mr. chen, let me introduce you. this is my big brother, qi luo. brother, this is the partner i told you about, mr. chen yanzhuo. this lady is his girlfriend. " mr. shi introduced.

"h.e.l.lo, mr. chen." qi luo raised his head and looked at chen yanzhuo, and said with an indifferent tone.

huo xiwen could see that this person's att.i.tude was somewhat arrogant. although he was somewhat unhappy, he didn't express it out loud. instead, he obediently stood beside chen yanzhuo, not moving an inch.

"mr. quirrell, i've heard a lot about you. i've finally met you today." chen yanzhuo's face immediately revealed a dazzling smile, and his tone was somewhat flattering.

huo xiwen had never seen chen yanzhuo act like a lackey before. he suddenly felt a chill in his heart and was even more curious about the ident.i.ty of this qi luo.

what kind of person could make chen yanzhuo so fond of him?

"sit down. "tiger, make tea." qi luo pointed to the seat in front of him and ordered stone tiger.

shi hu quickly poured two cups of water from the teapot and placed them in front of the two.

chen picked up one of the gla.s.ses, took a sip, and nodded. "a first-cla.s.s da hong pao. mr. qiluo has good taste."

"it's a gift from a friend. if mr. chen likes it, then i'll get the tiger to pack it for you later." qi luo said casually.

"then i won't be rude." chen yanzhuo, on the other hand, was very generous.

at this time, stone tiger took out a bag of white powder from his pocket and handed it to chen yanzhuo. "mr. chen, this is the goods that just came out of this batch. please give it a try."

chen yanzhuo looked at the bag of powder, and his eyebrows slightly twitched. he smiled and said, "mr. shi, did you forget? i said, although i'm selling this, i won't touch it."

"since mr. chen is unwilling to give it a try, let this bosom friend of yours give it a try." "after all, we have to test them on our own, so we can be at ease, no?" qi luo beamed as he stared at huo xiwen.

huo xiwen looked at the white powder, and then noticed the hidden nervousness of chen yanzhuo's natural indulgence. she instantly realized that this thing could be a drug, and her mind suddenly rang with alarm.

turning the map, she looked at chen yanzhuo, who was standing beside her, begging for help.

at this time, chen yanzhuo stretched out his hand to catch the white powder and said in a deep voice, "she's pregnant, we can't try."

"so that's how it is. then i'll congratulate mr. chen here first." although qi luo was smiling, huo xiwen could see that his smile was extremely sinister.

"then what should we do now? this guy is not going to try? " mister shi asked at this time.

"of course we have to try. our business is about honesty. if we don't try, how would mr. chen know how good our goods are? mr. chen, what do you think? " qi luo looked at him with a faint smile.

at this time, huo xiwen finally understood, the other party was trying to force chen yanzhuo to test the poison.

for some reason, even though chen yanzhuo no longer looked like a good person, she couldn't help but worry for him. her hand involuntarily grabbed his wrist, trying to stop him.

chen yanzhuo looked back at her and gave her a comforting look. he then tore open the bag of white powder in his hand, took a bit of it and put it in his nose.

his movements were very smooth without much hesitation.

huo xiwen's heart clenched, he was so scared that he didn't even dare to breathe.

but in the next second, she heard loki laugh. "i'm sorry, mr. chen. i'm sorry for offending you."
