When Mu Qing heard Bo Yi’s inquiry, he paused for a moment before responding, “Indeed, it’s an A-list, well-known opportunity. Due to a recent capital chain rupture and some internal disagreements among the higher-ups, we managed to acquire it.”

Bo Yi inquired further, “Do they have a shortage of partners?”

Mu Qing appeared momentarily bewildered, then chuckled, “Master Bo, are you jesting? Our corporation is involved in numerous sectors, and we have no shortage of potential partners. They’re all eager to collaborate with us!” However, as he finished speaking, a thought struck him. A clothing company and potential partners—Mu Qing had a revelation.

He quickly amended his statement, “Nevertheless, some of our long-term partnerships have seen diminishing returns. It might be prudent to explore new partnership opportunities as a contingency plan.”

Bo Yi seemed to brighten up, raising an eyebrow as he asked, “For instance?”

Mu Qing recognized the wisdom in Bo Yi’s inquiry and replied swiftly, “For instance, I believe Miss Fang Yuan’s clothing company is a promising candidate. They can handle the processing on our behalf. Our production line can’t accommodate the workload, so we can delegate a portion to AAiss Fang Yuan’s company for processing and quality checks before returning it to our warehouse.”

Bo Yi’s countenance relaxed, indicating his approval of Mu Qing’s suggestion.

However, Mu Qing voiced a concern, “I do believe our brand is highly recognizable. A sudden collaboration with Miss Fang Yuan’s company might attract undue attention.”

Bo Yi displayed interest, asking, “What do you propose?”

“I suggest that Op Group, like Miss Fang Yuan’s company, operate independently under a new brand name. Despite Bo Group’s backing, the new entity will appear as a separate company. This way, the collaboration with Miss Fang Yuan’s company will be on equal terms. I do have a name suggestion for the new company, albeit it may not be ideal. How about ‘Mu Yuan’?”

Bo Yi raised an eyebrow, acknowledging Mu Qing’s thorough thinking.

Mu Qing let out a sigh of relief, saying, “Master Bo, your understanding is greatly appreciated.”

Bo Yi calmly agreed, “Let’s proceed as you’ve outlined. If things go well, we’ll double the bonus.”

“Thank you, Master Bo!” Mu Qing was elated, realizing that Bo Yi’s previous mood was likely due to his longing for Miss Fang Yuan. As he prepared to leave the office, another idea came to mind. “Oh, by the way, Master Bo…”

“Huh?” Although Bo Yi’s demeanor remained stoic, there was a noticeable improvement in his mood.

Mu Qing grinned. “Even with your busy schedule, it wouldn’t hurt to spare a moment to check in on Miss Fang Yuan. Perhaps you could send her a message or give her a quick call to see how she’s doing. After all, as men, we should take the initiative from time to time, don’t you think?”

This was exactly what Bo Yi had in mind, but his expression remained unchanged. “Do I need you to advise me on this?”

Mu Qing quickly clarified, “I’m not trying to instruct you, Master Bo. I’m simply offering a friendly reminder. You’re aware that women appreciate attention. If they ever feel neglected… don’t you think, Master Bo?”

Bo Yi nodded in agreement. He then picked up his phone and dialed Fang Yuan’s number.

Observing the improvement in Bo Yi’s disposition, Mu Qing sighed with relief and exited the office.

Meanwhile, Fang Yuan was in the midst of discussing a potential collaboration when her phone vibrated. Ignoring the call momentarily, she rose to her feet and shook hands with her discussion partner. “Here’s to a successful partnership.”

“President Fang, your straightforwardness is appreciated. I have every confidence that our collaboration will be a fruitful one.”

The manager, clearly satisfied with Fang Yuan, wore a smile as he added, “As long as the products are delivered on schedule and the quality meets our standards, we will continue to work together.”

Fang Yuan nodded in agreement. “Absolutely. Quality has always been our top priority. You can count on it.”

With the manager departing, Fang Yuan watched as he got into his car. She then retrieved her phone and noticed two missed calls from Bo Yi. She promptly returned his call, asking, “Is something the matter?”

Bo Yi’s voice came through, “Are you busy right now?”

Fang Yuan replied, “Yes, I was just in a meeting regarding a potential collaboration.”

Bo Yi’s voice, laced with longing, expressed, “I wish to be your partner as well. That way, I’d have more opportunities to see you.”

Fang Yuan’s lips curled into a gentle smile, “Haven’t we been seeing each other quite often already?”

Bo Yi responded with unwavering determination, “No, not often enough. It’s far too infrequent, and it’s disheartening. I truly wish to be with you at every moment, to be close to you.”

Fang Yuan strolled along the roadside and remarked, “Alright, I’m about to hail a taxi. We can chat more once 1 return.”

“Are you out alone?” Bo Yi assumed she was accompanied by her assistant. “I’ll come pick you up. Where are you?”

Fang Yuan declined, saying, “No need. I’m quite near the office. I can easily catch a taxi.”

But Bo Yi insisted, “Let me pick you up. I really want to see you.” He promptly left his office, prompting a curious glance from Mu Qing, who thought something significant had occurred.

Fang Yuan reluctantly shared her location with Bo Yi and waited by the roadside. The street had few businesses, with many storefronts sitting vacant. Behind her lay a desolate field overrun with weeds..
