Callous Boss and Awkward Wife
Chapter 135: Meeting With Old Friends

The car stopped at the entrance of the Sr office. Ke Chen came out of the car and looked up at the familiar logo on the building. He put on his sunglasses without any expression.

It was the emblem of the Ke family.

Ke Chen strode into the SR building. His whole body emitted the aura of an emperor, making people unconsciously want to bow down and obey.

As he walked to the front desk, Ke Chen was stopped by the staff at the front desk. She was a blond and blue-eyed lady from France. Her eyes swept over Ke Chen several times and asked him who he was looking for.

Ke Chen had learned the languages of various countries since he was a child, and he was familiar with the language. He answered her in a fluent voice, "I'm here to replace your CEO."

When the receptionist heard him say this, her brows furrowed slightly. Although she felt that the Asian man in front of her was very handsome, before the CEO came this morning, he had specifically instructed her not to welcome anyone who had come looking for him this morning.

With a smile on his face, the receptionist said to Ke Chen in embarrassment, "Sir, do you have an appointment?"

Ke Chen was already in a bad mood, but now he was upset by the number of questions at the front desk. Luckily, the sunglasses blocked most of the expressions on his face, otherwise the front desk would definitely be scared by his expression.

Without the mood to continue talking nonsense, Ke Chen impatiently took something out of his pocket and threw it in front of the woman.

The front desk lowered her head and saw the logo she'd seen every day in the company building. Her expression changed dramatically. She carefully apologized a few times and quickly called the CEO's office.

After saying a few words in a low voice, the receptionist quickly brought Ke Chen to the elevator and watched him enter the elevator.

The elevator stopped and the elevator doors opened. The CEO's secretary was already waiting at the door to greet him respectfully.

Ke Chen was brought to the CEO's office by the secretary. There was no one behind the desk. Ke Chen took off his sunglasses and his handsome face made the woman in a trance.

"Where is your CEO now?" Ke Chen's voice was cold but there was a different sexy tone.

In fact, Ke Chen knew that the other party should be discussing cooperation with Gu Yi right now. He asked this question deliberately. This is the purpose of his trip here to make Gu Jia unable to negotiate this cooperation.

As expected, the secretary's expression suddenly became awkward. Her face was full of embarrassment as she explained to Ke Chen that the CEO was currently having an important meeting in the conference room and might not be able to meet him for the time being. She hoped that Ke Chen could wait patiently for a while.

Ke Chen waved his hand and said with a stern gaze, "No, I can't wait for a second. Go and call your CEO out now."

Ke Chen raised an eyebrow and swept her gaze, scaring the secretary out of the office.

After two minutes, footsteps were heard outside the door. Ke Chen sat lazily on the sofa like an arrogant lion looking at the door.

A familiar face walked in, and a smile finally appeared on Ke Chen's face.

"Swish!"

"Krisis."

The man known as Kro walked up to Ke Chen and looked at him in disbelief. He asked in surprise, "Why are you here in France?" Why didn't you tell me before coming?

Ke Chen shrugged. "I don't know you're in France, and I don't know that the CEO of this company is you."

When he saw Kis, Ke Chen finally felt a little relieved.

Although he was also a member of the Ke family, he was a naughty person since he was young. The older generation in the family did not know why. He had always been particularly loose for him, which made Ke Chen envious when he was young. He could be said to be one of the few people in the Ke family who had a good relationship with Ke Chen.

The news of Ke Chen escaping from the family had caused a stir in the past, and Kro had helped him, but after that, the two of them had not met for several years.

After some small talk, Kriss poured Ke Chen a glass of wine and asked the real purpose of replaceing this place today.

He knew Ke Chen well. He was the one who didn't want to get involved with the family any more. He had to come here without knowing that he was the CEO.

Ke Chen also didn't keep him in suspense, and directly stated the purpose of his trip, "I hope you can stop the cooperation project with Gu Jia."

Kis was surprised but soon regained his composure.

Although Gu Jia's scale is not particularly large, but its performance and ability are not bad, and it is precisely because of this that they will replace Gu Jia to cooperate.

In fact, before Ke Chen came, Kriss had already talked to Gu Yi about signing the contract. If it was not for Ke Chen, they would have already signed it.

Kriss looked at Ke Chen seriously, "Hey, I can promise you this request, but you need to tell me the reason."

Ke Chen also looked straight at Kriss. He paused for two seconds and roughly explained the reason. However, he hid the period when he was sick. The less people knew about his illness, the better.

Kis frowned after listening and couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect that Mr. Gu, who looks so polite, is actually a person who loves to play tricks behind his back. You don't need to say such people, I will never cooperate with him." Ke Chen smiled and raised the glass in his hand.

"What are you thanking? I'm not just for you, but also for the company."

Although that was the case, Ke Chen understood that stopping a cooperation project that was about to be discussed was definitely not a small amount of damage to the SRS.

He raised an eyebrow to look at Kis and asked, "Are you interested in working with me?"

In fact, when they were looking for a partner, the first thing they thought about was Ke Corps. However, when they thought about the relationship between Ke Chen and the family, Kro had concerns, so he turned to Gu's company.

"Of course, I'm fine, but what about you? If you're working with us this time, you're working with the family. Have you really thought about it?" Kro's tone was still full of worry.

In the past, Ke Chen and the family had been in a mess. Although the family had not intervened in his career for the past few years, as far as Kriss knew, those old guys had been secretly watching Ke Chen's every move.

Ke Chen made this suggestion after careful consideration. The economic shock in the country had just passed, and several of Ke's cooperation projects had been interrupted because of Lin Xiu. Now, they needed a strong partner to regain some vitality.

"Don't worry, since I dare to tell you, I must have thought it through. The cooperation between Ke and you is not under the name of Ke Corps, but a small company that has just been listed. All the procedures go through the proper process, so that even if the family wants to investigate, they can't replace any clues.

As Ke Chen said this, Kis suddenly understood. The two of them raised their cups and drank together.
