she is sweeter than sugar

During the meal, a virtual screen suddenly appeared in midair.

His assistant's voice sounded immediately.

"My lord, that guy is here, do you think you want to have lunch with him?"

Eric frowned slightly, and just about to refuse, Gu Ci who was next to him turned his head and looked at him, "Who?"

Eric suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, and he only said vaguely, "...to discuss business."

Gu Ci was keenly aware of something, "Is it the one you mentioned just now who brought the star tungsten?"

Now that Gu Ci had asked directly, Eric did not hide his admission.

Eric chose not to say some things, but he couldn't lie to Gu Ci.

At this moment, the assistant's voice sounded from the communication again.

"My lord? Can you hear me, my lord?"

Under Gu Ci's gaze, Eric said, "...you ask him to come over."

After getting an affirmative answer, the assistant quickly hung up the call.

Immediately, the food that had been served on the dining table began to be removed automatically.

The tableware used by the two of them was also hidden under the table, and a new pair was replaced.

For the first time, Eric felt that his general assistant was too capable, and it was not a good thing.

Probably because the other party still has Xingtungsten in his hand, Gu Ci didn't have much emotion about it.

Not long after, new news came through the communication, and Eric pushed his chair away and got up.

Almost in the next second, the door of the restaurant opened automatically.

A man wearing a black windbreaker, with half of his face covered by a black mask with a metallic texture, appeared in front of the two of them.

His aura is not inferior to Eric's.

Even, it has a certain kind of strong aggressiveness, making it impossible to ignore his existence.

Even if only the thin lips and chin are exposed, one can still see a little bit of the appearance of a man who is recognized as a monster from the smooth and smooth lines.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, welcome to the FM base, Mr. Huo."

Eric had a formulaic smile on his face, and after he stepped forward to shake hands with the man, he broke up with another touch.

The man exhibits nearly the same alienation as Eric.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Eric."

Gu Ci's eyes fell on the exposed part of the man's face, a little stagnant.

For some reason, she seemed to feel...

She frowned slightly, with an inexplicable bad premonition in her heart, she tapped the table with her fingers, thoughtfully.

As if he had sensed Gu Ci's gaze, the man also looked in Gu Ci's direction.

His eyes paused on the black rubber band the woman used to tie her hair.

Then he asked Eric again, "This is...?"

When he said this, his eyes still fell on Gu Ci, with a bit of gentlemanly courtesy.

Eric's eyes moved slightly, "I forgot to introduce, she is the person who will extract the star tungsten for you later, her surname is Gu."

"Gu..., this is Mr. Huo."

Something flashed in the eyes of the man called Huo, and his thin lips curled up slightly, "It turned out to be Miss Gu, nice to meet you."

As he said that, he took a few steps forward, walked up to Gu Ci, and stretched out his slender jade-like hand.

The sense of familiarity disappeared, Gu Ci looked at the slender and powerful hand in front of him, and slowly stretched out his hand, "It's a pleasure to meet you."

However, Huo, who shook hands with Eric just now and only touched the tips of his fingers, this time, he held Gu Ci's entire hand.

Something flashed across his eyes, and the smile on his lips deepened.

Gu Ci wanted to withdraw her hand, but in the end it was fruitless.

Just when she frowned and was about to say something, the man let go of her hand.

If you want to count, this handshake time is considered normal.

Gu Ci didn't say anything, but took half a step back.

Her eyes fell on the outline of the man's face, and her brows frowned even tighter.

I don't know if it was Gu Ci's illusion, but she seemed to see a slightly familiar smile in the man's eyes...

Looking at this scene, Eric's eyes flashed a gloomy look.

He stood between the two of them calmly, separated them, and pointed the man to the seat next to him.

"Mr. Huo, sit down."

The man didn't sit down immediately.

His gaze fell on Eric immediately, with a somewhat inexplicable meaning.

Although Eric had a smile on his face, there was a hint of unkindness in his eyes.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the restaurant was inexplicably stagnant.

"What happen to you guys?"

Gu Ci tilted her head, looking at the scene in front of her inexplicably.

At this moment, both of them had smiles on their faces, looking very harmonious, but what appeared in their eyes was a diametrically opposite signal.

Eric was calm and unhurried, and directly threw the question to the man, "Mr. Huo is not going to sit down, is there any dissatisfaction with the reception at my FM base?"

These words already carried a hint of unfriendliness.

Huo seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "Of course not, but I happen to have something to ask Ms. Gu who is in charge of extracting the star tungsten, so, can Mr. Eric let me go?"

"Of course, it's just a seat. I don't think Mr. Eric will refuse."

Hearing Huo's words, Eric had a sneer on his lips.

"As for Xingtung's matter, although it was picked up by Gu, but for negotiation, Mr. Huo just communicated with me directly."

The expression on the man's face did not change at all, "What I want to communicate is about the extraction process. As for the remuneration for the extraction of Star Tungsten, it is not too late for us to discuss it carefully later."

Eric had a good time, "Coincidentally, I also know about the extraction of star tungsten. Every time Gu extracts it, I also watch it from the side. Speaking of it, what I understand is no different from Gu."

In the end, he concluded directly, "So, if Mr. Huo has any doubts, you can ask me."

The man just smiled slightly, "Since Mr. Eric doesn't even have the sincerity to negotiate, then there is no point in continuing our cooperation."

Eric just sneered, and didn't mean to change his mind because of Huo's words, "My FM base can't afford it, Mr. Huo walks slowly."

Seeing that the two were arguing inexplicably, and were about to break up inexplicably, Gu Ci's eyebrows twitched, and then he opened his mouth...
