Chapter 983
However, Melody Fox’s contract had already been written, and the contract had already taken effect. Melody Fox could not sign this contract, so she still could not get involved with the Swanson Group’s business.
Since that was the case, there was no need for him to sacrifice himself like Ai Chunrou.
People didn’t live in this world just to breathe.
“I-I think I’ll stop writing.” Liu Gaoyi laughed dryly and said, “I’m still willing to work hard with you, Mrs. Swanson.”
Melody Fox raised his eyebrows. He knew that Liu Gaoyi, this old fox, would not be able to enter his fist so easily.
She was not in a hurry. This was not the only way to deal with Liu Gaoyi.
She took her time. “You don’t have to write, of course. It’s your freedom. And I’m glad you can trust my abilities.” When Liu Gaoyi heard this, his smile was extremely fake. “Of course, I believe in your ability…”
Melody Fox nodded slightly. Suddenly, his expression turned cold, and his gaze stabbed at Ai Chunrou like an ice blade.
Ai Chunrou’s heart trembled under Melody Fox’s cold gaze and she subconsciously shivered.
“W-Why are you looking at me like that…”
The corners of Melody Fox’s lips curled up, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
“Ai Chunrou, since you’ve signed it and fingerprinted it, you should pack your things and leave now.”
Ai Chunrou frowned. “What do you mean? Why should I pack up and leave? I’ve written it clearly in black and white. I’ll only resign and leave if you take this project.”
“Huh.”
Melody Fox lowered his eyes and smiled. This time, there was finally a hint of a smile in his eyes, but it made people look even more upset.
She raised her eyes and looked straight at Ai Chunrou. “I’ve already won this project, so you can leave now. Do you understand? I don’t need to make myself clear, right?”
Everyone fell silent.
However, a moment later, Ai Chunrou suddenly clutched her stomach and laughed uncontrollably. “Hahahahaha…” With Ai Chunrou’s lead, many people were also amused. Melody Fox signed the contract just as she walked out of… Fox rooms in just a few minutes?
What kind of ridiculous joke was this?
“Hahaha… Fox, Miss Fox, I’m really grateful to you. This is, this is the first time I’ve heard such a funny joke in my life. Hahahaha… I can’t take it anymore. I can’t breathe.”
Ai Chunrou held her waist and laughed until she was out of breath as if she was about to faint.
The smile on Melody Fox’s face had completely faded.
“Miss Ai Chunrou, I’m not joking with you. Ou Jing has already confirmed that they will work with us on this project. They will announce the collaboration tomorrow.” Ai Chunrou, who had just calmed down, burst into tears again.
“Miss Fox, don’t tell me that you just went out for a few minutes and suddenly contacted Assistant Zuo. Then, Assistant Zuo heard you say a few words and agreed to give the project to you.”
Melody Fox nodded. “That’s right, that’s it.”
“Ha! Hahahaha…”
Ai Chunrou wiped her tears of laughter and tried her best to enunciate clearly. “Miss Fox, you really can make up any lie to chase me away! But can you make up a more realistic lie? If you ask everyone in the conference room, who will believe you? Who will believe you?”
Melody Fox looked up at Shi Kai.
Shi Kai subconsciously turned his face away, not daring to look at Melody Fox.
The meaning was obvious. Shi Kai did not believe what she said either.
Liu Gaoyi said, “Mrs. Swanson, are you really not afraid of becoming the laughing stock of others if you do this? If you want to chase Ai Chunrou away, you can just say it directly. What you’re doing… is really despicable.”
Ai Chunrou frowned.
What was that supposed to mean? Why did it sound so uncomfortable?
But Liu Gaoyi should be on her side, right?
Ai Chunrou opened her mouth, but in the end, she did not respond to Liu Gaoyi’s words. She only said to Melody Fox,
“I was wondering why you wanted me to write the receipt for no reason. It turns out that you wanted to take the opportunity to chase me out. Unfortunately, not only can you not let me leave legitimately, but you also confirmed that you really don’t have the ability to sign this project.”
Melody Fox pursed his lips and said, “Alright, since no one believes me, I’ll call Assistant Zuo in front of you to confirm it again.”
“Sure, go ahead. I’ll see if Assistant Zuo will answer your call.”
Melody Fox did not say anything and directly dialed Zuo Ye’s number. At the same time, he turned on the speaker on his cell phone to ensure that everyone could hear the contents of the call.
After the beep, the call was picked up and Zuo Ye’s voice sounded.
“Miss Fox, you’re here? So soon?”
Hearing this voice, everyone was stunned.
Ai Chunrou’s face instantly turned extremely pale.
As the manager of the liaison department, she had been there several times to contact Zuo Ye, so she was very familiar with this person.
But… Didn’t Zuo Ye not answer Melody Fox’s call just now? Why was his tone so polite now?
Melody Fox said, “Not yet. There’s a small problem on my side. I need to confirm with you again. Ou Jing is sure that she can work with us on the processing project, right?”
“I’m sure, I’m sure.” Zuo Ye could not help but laugh. “Miss Fox, why would I lie to you? You don’t have to double-check.”
“Mr. Zuo, it’s not that I don’t believe you, but there are people in the company who don’t believe that you agree to work with us. So… I can only confirm it with you again in front of them.”
Zuo Ye had been in the business world for so many years and had been trained by Mr. Ou. When Melody Fox said that, he instantly understood.
“Miss Fox, if they don’t believe me, bring all these people who don’t believe me to see me. I’ll tell them myself.”
“There’s no need. They should believe you when they hear your voice. Thank you.”
“You don’t have to be so polite. I’ll see you later.”
“Yeah.”
Melody Fox ended the call and glanced at Ai Chunrou and the people in the meeting room.
“Now do you believe me?”
Shi Kai was the first to recover from his shock.
His originally small eyes were now wide open, filled with disbelief and surprise.
Shi Kai spat hard. He was so excited that he could not speak coherently.
“Mrs. Swanson, why didn’t you say so earlier? This is actually true… Oh my god, Mrs. Swanson, you’re too amazing. From now on, you’re my idol! I really didn’t expect this, haha! You’re really too amazing. I’m so compensating you! How exactly did you do it? I don’t even dare to think about it…”
Liu Gaoyi looked at Shi Kai with a bewildered expression. Did this woman really sign the contract?
How was this possible? Was he hallucinating? How did this woman do it? How was she worthy… Was Zuo Ye crazy?
In his shock, Liu Gaoyi began to panic.
