Ming waved the agreement in his hand and asked him, “do you want it?”
“No.” Sean declined directly.
I knew why he refused.
Because I knew what Ming would offer later.
“Really? It’s a pity.”
Ming winked at Andrew.
He immediately brought a small fish tank in the lounge.
Ming smiled and held up the hard disk and put it on the top of the fishbowl. “Since you don’t want it, I’ll throw it in. By the way, this is the only copy. There is no backup.”
When he said that, I suddenly felt nervous and wanted to move.
But Sean’s five fingers clasped my shoulder, and I couldn’t move at all.
“Throw it.”
Sean said calmly.
I couldn’t do that. I looked at Sean. “You’re crazy. It’s all your money.”
“It’s not as much money as he spent today.” Sean’s black eyes were cold.
It seemed that the current mobile hard disk had nothing to do with him.
Ming took his hand back and took out a piece of paper. He wiped the hard disk carefully and said, “Sean, I advise you not to do this. If it’s just a little money, how could the Giant group be so miserable? The project is about to bear fruit. I heard that you spent a lot of money to order equipment in the factory and prepare to put it into production. Are you sure it’s just a little money?”
When Ming said that, I clearly felt Sean’s fingers pressing against my shoulders.
It seemed that Ming was telling the truth.
Sean straightened up and looked like he wouldn’t lose to Ming.
But I knew he was sad.
Sean had always been a decent businessman. Every penny in this was earned by him.
“You don’t have to worry about it. If you want to throw it, hurry up. We want to leave.”
Sean said calmly and leaned against the back of the sofa.
He folded his legs and looked very laid back.
“Oh.” Ming raised the hard disk again. “Now that Sean says that, there’s no way. I’m sorry for the tens of thousands of members of the Giant group who are going to lose their jobs.”
“Wait.”
When he said this, Sean couldn’t sit still.
Ming seemed to have captured Sean’s sense of responsibility as a boss.
He looked up at Sean. “What’s the matter?”
“Tell me your conditions. Anything but her.”
Sean said directly.
But Ming said, “I just want her, and you take the rest.”
“It’s impossible.”
Sean declined.
“Then I’m sorry.” Ming stood up and let go.
The black hard disk fall freely.
No!
I cried in my heart and rushed straight to it. I caught the hard disk and my back was on the goldfish tank!
I fell down!
