'Your Highness Caitlyn, Mr. Zhou Ming, you can't be serious, can you? The hedging investments of the Triffin Company and the Keyi Company are all the secret codes you use to communicate with each other to meet?'
Edward asked in a desperate tone, because he could not accept this fact at all. You see, the Adams and the Kennedys were now almost using every means at their disposal to going crazy against each other. In these two families, a casual move can determine the life or death of a multi-million-dollar company, and the ownership of absolutely tens of millions or even billions of dollars.
But at this time, you are actually helping the two families to plot strategies while also using targeted means to communicate, which is too exaggerated!
Edward's heart was in turmoil at this time. He simply could not describe his current mood in any words. It was as unpleasant as eating a dead rat. He had originally thought that both the Addamses and the Kennedys were already the top American top American conglomerate. However, it seems that in the eyes of Zhou Ming and Caitlin, it is just a family game. They can still exchange coded words at this time.
This is a family struggle within the Brighton Consortium, and at any time it could involve the ownership of hundreds of billions of dollars in wealth. Can you be serious and focused, and at least have a minimum of respect?
Edward was screaming inside, but he could only scream inside, because if he said it out loud, he would really be treating the two families of Addams and Candini like idiots . At least Ming and Caitlin can still help the two families maintain the last layer of window paper, so he won't poke a hole in it.
Facing Edward, who was on the verge of collapse, Ming Zhou said very deliberately, 'Mr Governor, I don't think there's anything I can do. After all, neither the Kennedys nor the Adamses are willing to mediate, so we'll just have to figure it out ourselves. 'Trefffen' in German means to meet without an appointment, while "ke" is the Chinese pronunciation for "can", meaning to agree with me. This is the difference between the native languages of Her Highness Caitlyn and myself.'
With Zhou Ming's answer, Edward buried his head between his hands. Obviously, he couldn't accept it and had to bury his head like an ostrich.
Zhou Ming and Caitlyn both understood Edward's behaviour and left him alone. Caitlyn smiled charmingly: 'It seems that Mr Edward's problem has been solved, so I am now curious, Mr Zhou Ming deliberately hid your thoughts in the name of the company and then asked me out to meet, what is the matter?'
This should be a very normal question to answer, but Zhou Ming suddenly froze for a moment, and then gave an answer that surprised everyone: 'I don't know, I just wanted to meet and chat with Your Highness Caitlin, and I didn't really think there was anything going on.'
Hearing this answer from Zhou Ming, Edward, who had already been on the verge of collapse, was once again in disarray.
What? You went to all that trouble, using the struggle between the Addams and the Kennedys as a code, a cryptic one at that, and you managed to keep it a secret from everyone, only to turn up at Quincy's for dinner and say you haven't got a clue why? Dear Mr Zhou Ming, are you sure you are serious and not here to make fun of me?
Caitlin also did not expect Zhou Ming to give such an answer. She was also stunned, but then Zhou Ming said, 'After all, it's been four years since we last met have not seen each other for four years, so when I heard that it was you, Your Highness Caitlyn, on the Adams side of the family, I wanted to ask you out to catch up and chat about how you've been getting on.'
Zhou Ming said, scratching his head apologetically, 'Actually, I prepared a lot of things to say before we met, but after seeing Your Highness, I didn't know what to say.'
Cait Kate Lin's pretty face flushed slightly, looking a little shy: 'I didn't expect Mr. Zhou Ming to be so direct. I am also very honoured. After four years, you still remember me and made a special trip to ask me out because of that memory from the beginning.'
'Because because in the lecture hall at Peking University, your words, Your Highness Caitlyn, were also very memorable,' said Ming.
'However, in the end, I lost to you,' said Caitlyn.
'After After all, the latecomer always has the advantage of the latecomer. Your Highness Caitlyn has already thrown out the arguments, and I simply refuted them, so it was very simple.'
Zhou Ming said modestly, but after a short pause he added: 'If I'm really curious, I'm just wondering why Her Highness Caitlyn is helping the Addams family so much.'
'This involves matters between families, and I'm sorry, I'm not allowed to tell you here,' said Caitlyn.
Zhou Ming expressed his understanding: 'I see, then let me ask in a different way, Your Highness Caitlyn, to what extent are you going to help the Addams family, and can you give up helping them?'
Cait Caitlin looked at Ming Zhou with very complicated eyes and asked, 'Is this your request, Mr. Ming Zhou?'
Ming Zhou was very surprised by Caitlyn's rhetorical question, because he never expected Caitlyn to ask such a question in return. However, instead of foolishly asking questions like 'what's the difference?',
Zhou Ming Zhou Ming's answer, Caitlyn's originally fair and pretty face became even more rosy and shy. She asked Zhou Ming again, 'Then I wonder if Mr. Zhou Ming still remembers our promise four years ago?'
Zhou Ming answered without hesitation: 'I remember it clearly every moment. Your Highness Caitlyn told me that in this world, the true business tycoons should be borderless, and you also said that you also hold a large fortune in your hands and you want to compete with me.'
Cait was clearly a little surprised by Zhou Ming's answer: 'I didn't think you'd actually remember, so that's good news, because the original agreement is still valid.'
Zhou Ming frowned and thought for a moment, saying, 'Your Highness, you mean that as long as I can help the Candini family win against you in this competition, you will give up continuing to help the Addams family, right?'
'This is a change of concept.' Caitlin then added, "But I can still accept such an agreement.'
'Then I think I can already thank Your Highness on behalf of the Candini family for keeping your promise," Ming Zhou smiled.
Caitlin Linn looked at Ming and said, 'It seems that Mr. Ming is full of confidence, but don't forget, at least so far, your wealth is still incomparable to mine, even if you have seized a large part of the property from the Dota project.'
'I don't feel it's something to be ashamed of,' said Ming Zhou. 'After all, it's only been four years since I earned my first dollar. I don't think I can surpass the wealth accumulated by a family that has been around for a thousand years.'
Caitlin said Kate Lin, raising the glass in front of her and indicating to Zhou Ming: 'So does that mean our agreement is set?'
Zhou Ming also raised his glass and said to Kate Lin, "Of course." Then the two of them took a sip of wine together, set down their glasses, and Kate Lin got up to leave Zhou Ming subconsciously called out to her, but Caitlin waved her hand and said, 'I think you have more important things to deal with around you.'
Leaving these words, Caitlin left the box. Zhou Ming felt a little regretful about this, but on second thought, this seemed to be the best outcome. After all, Zhou Ming and Caitlin had only met once before. This this time she was able to decipher Ming's coded message, agreed and actually came to the appointment, and finally agreed to conditionally give up continuing to help the Addams family.
In this situation situation, it was already an incredible thing. If you want to keep her to have dinner and drinks together, and then chat to strengthen the relationship, that would be too much.
In addition, as Caitlin said, Edward really needs a headache.
With this thoughts, Zhou Mingwen calmed his nerves and patted Edward on the back, saying, 'Okay, Mr. Governor, now that Her Royal Highness has left, it's just us here, so please say whatever you have to say.'
Edward looked Zhou Ming and asked, 'I want to know what really happened!'
Faced with Edward's expression of wanting to eat people, Zhou Ming was shocked, but then told him, 'Everything is the same as what you saw, Mr. Governor. Because Princess Caitlin went to Huaxia four years ago China. We happened to meet in Yanjing. At that time, I thought Her Royal Highness was very beautiful, so I followed her to Peking University. Later, I accidentally won a debate against her, and we struck up a friendship.'
'This time After I learned that she was helping the Addams family, I really wanted to catch up with her, so I asked her out. It was as simple as that.'
After Ming finished speaking, Seeing Edward's expression of being about to collapse and mess up, Zhou Ming then said to him, 'In fact, these things from my past don't matter. The most important thing is that as long as I can win her over once, she will give up the Addams family. Isn't that the key?'
'Indeed, the Adams family alone cannot perfectly suppress the Kennedys. Or even if they can, it will come at a very high price, not like what is happening now.' Edward then looked at Ming Zhou with complex eyes and said, 'But are you sure she will keep her promise?'
Ming Zhou did not answer this question but instead asked a question in return: 'So before I met her here today, if I told Mr Governor all my plans, would you believe that she would come?'
Edward let out a sigh: 'Do we really have to pin all our hopes on the credibility of one person?'
Zhou Ming then smilingly corrected him, 'It's not on her that we're pinning our hopes, it's on me.'
Meanwhile, in the restaurant hallway, the housekeeper asked Caitlin, 'Your Highness, if that Ming really does it, are you really going to keep your promise?'
Again, Caitlyn also did not answer this question, but instead asked a more strange question: 'What kind of husband do you think I should find if I get married in the future? At least my husband must be stronger than me, right?'
