The domineering president goes on a blind date

Ding-ling-ling, the cell phone rings.

Li Anhe put down the documents in his hand and gave a wicked smile. He must have realized that he had said less than one word.

He saw the phone number and frowned.

"Hey?"

"Brother-in-law, I'm Mingxu."

"What's up?"

"I'm in Li's Building right now. Our company has a project and wants to cooperate with Li's. I can't get in without an appointment."

"There is a cafe near my company. Please wait for me there."

Li Anhe hung up the phone, picked up his suit jacket and walked out of the office.

Tong Mingxu and others were in the cafe, looking around.

I don’t know what’s going on recently. The projects I was negotiating for either fell through or were snatched away by others. This month’s bonus has been deducted in full. I can’t even survive in North City on just the basic salary.

Li Anhe walked into the cafe and Tong Mingxu asked him to come over and sit down.

"Brother-in-law, I don't know what flavor of coffee you like, so I ordered black coffee. If you don't like it, you can order another one."

"I'm very busy. I only have half an hour. Let's talk." Li Anhe stirred the black coffee.

Tong Mingxu looked embarrassed.

"It's like this. I haven't been doing well at work recently. Many projects have not been completed well, and my supervisor is very dissatisfied with me. I think this cooperation with Li's company can turn the current predicament around. I hope my brother-in-law can help me." Tong Mingxu pushed the contract in front of Li Anhe.

Li Anhe glanced at the contract but did not read it.

Tong Mingxu quickly introduced the project.

"This kind of project is a waste of time for the Li Group. The profits earned are not enough to pay bonuses to employees."

"I know, but I haven't been involved in any big projects recently, only these small projects. I want to do these small projects well and let my supervisor hand the project over to me again." Tong Mingxu rubbed his trouser legs, not sure whether Li Anhe would help?

"I don't think anyone in your company would be in charge of such a project. You must have put a lot of effort into digging it out of the dusty corner, right?"

"Brother-in-law, I..."

Li Anhe was right. Tong Mingxu was having a hard time in the company. For many projects, not to mention the core staff, even the marginal staff could not get in. If he continued to fail to get projects, he would soon be marginalized by the company, and it would be difficult for him to get in again.

Of course Li Anhe knew, because he was the one who did it.

"You can ask me to help you, but you have to answer a question for me."

"Brother-in-law, you say," Tong Mingxu clenched his palms, as if grasping the last hope.

"Why do you hate your sister so much? If you tell me, we can cooperate with the Li family right away."

Tong Mingxu's eyes flickered, he lowered his head, and then raised it after a moment.

“This is a family matter.”

"You just called me brother-in-law, so I should be considered a member of your family!"

"But then...but what does that have to do with cooperation?"

"It does matter, because I was the one who did the things on the Internet."

Tong Mingxu's eyes widened, and there was disbelief in his eyes.

"You don't have to doubt it. Finding evidence and driving traffic are easy things for Li's company. I've been in Li's company for so many years, and it's easy for me to get things done." Li Anhe pointed at the contract on the table, "It's also easy for Li's company to execute this contract. Tell me why, and I'll help you."

Tong Mingxu remained silent, his eyes gradually changing from despair to resentment, and then to self-mockery.

"Brother-in-law, sorry to bother you." Tong Mingxu went to take the contract on the table, but was held down by Li Anhe.

"You would rather stay in the company as a nobody than tell me why?"

"Brother-in-law, is there really nothing wrong? You are overthinking it."

"I'm overthinking it? You're stirring up public opinion and cyberbullying your sister. Am I overthinking it?"

"Brother-in-law, I'm leaving first."

Tong Mingxu picked up the documents and left.

Li Anhe looked at Tong Mingxu's leaving back and his brows furrowed even tighter.
