Chapter 415: Much Smarter

Because of this, he had to ask Fujiwara Takumi for help immediately. At this time, the room was quiet, and everyone tacitly chose to remain silent. They didn't dare to speak or were unwilling to speak, because they didn't know the specific situation and felt that they were not qualified to speak. But Uehara Mika was an exception.

Listening to Yuye's almost pleading voice, her thoughts couldn't help but drift back to her memories - Ishida seemed to have given Yuye some kind of warning about a crucial project, and Uehara Mika was confused about this matter and felt very troubled.

Although Fujiwara Takumi usually doesn't like to make decisions on his own initiative, he still tries to comfort Yuye:

"Hey, hey, hey, don't be like this. We didn't say we won't help you, nor did we promise to help you. Don't be so negative. We are all friends, and we will do our best to help."

Xiongye didn't know for a moment whether he should be sad or hold on to this last glimmer of hope. In the end, he chose to calm down and said hesitantly:

"I have no choice. There are so many people in the company waiting for meals. I can't owe them anything. I also want the company to get better."

As if something suddenly dawned on her, Uehara Mika walked around Fujiwara Takumi and came to Yuye. After looking at him carefully, she asked, "What did Ishida mean by what he told you today? Why are you begging Fujiwara Takumi so humbly? I've never seen you like this before. Besides, why are you so anxious? Can't you just talk slowly?" Her concern sounded very caring, but Yuye was obviously still very anxious and hesitant. His eagerness at the moment surpassed any discomfort.

"The situation is like this. Our company's operations are just average, but it's hard to find projects. I finally found a suitable project recently, but a company called Xingchen is also competing for it."

Everyone present listened attentively. No one dared to be negligent about this matter. They had to concentrate fully. Only when they understood it clearly could they discuss whether to lend a helping hand.

"So, we became rivals. Now that Ishida has joined, he knows everything about our company. I'm afraid he will... become a traitor."

Xiongye paused and did not continue. Everyone seemed calm on the surface, but their hearts were in turmoil. At this time, Uehara Mika asked:

"Just because of this? Then how do you want us to help you?" This question was also what Fujiwara Takumi was thinking, while the other three people looked confused, waiting for the whole story to unfold.

"Well, actually I'm worried that I can't do it well. Xingchen is stronger than us, and I thought that the project leader likes racing, so I can cater to his interests, so... Fujiwara Takumi, I really need your help!"

It was said so sincerely and emotionally that Uehara Mika was almost touched. At that moment, a quiet tacit understanding flowed between the two of them.

They were not sure whether they were capable of doing this, but Mika Uehara felt that the matter could still be discussed further.

Even so, Xiongye still didn't get any response after he spoke, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared. The company meant a lot to him, it was almost everything to him, and if the company was gone, he might not be able to survive.

So, taking advantage of the silence, he spoke up, his words mixed with requests and reluctance. He didn't want his years of hard work to go to waste on a project, and he didn't want Ishida to have the opportunity to laugh at him.

“Please help me. This project may seem trivial to others, but for me, it’s the straw that broke the camel’s back!”

To be honest, at that moment, Kazuo Karasawa was moved. He approached Uehara Mika and Fujiwara Takumi and whispered softly: "How about we help him? Look at him, he is like this..."

Uehara Mika also thought it was a good idea, but she was afraid. It was well known that her boss loved racing, and if the opponent was Ishida again, she was afraid that he would play dirty tricks again.

It's not that they are unwilling to help Xiongye, but these concerns are not groundless. Ishida has done everything he can, so it is difficult to eliminate such concerns.

What’s even more frightening is that the last victims were Hojo Go and Hojo Rin, what if it’s Fujiwara Takumi’s turn this time?

Each of these points is worrying and very concerning.

"What if Ishida does something shocking again? Fujiwara Takumi is our teammate, no one wants him to get hurt, and what happened to Hojo Rin and Hojo Go is enough for us..."

Unexpectedly, Xiongye said firmly: "Don't worry, there is nothing to be afraid of. If he really does that, I will send someone to keep an eye on him and prove your innocence. This time, I believe you unconditionally."

Right or wrong no longer matters.

“Whether we win or not is out of our control.”

"Just do your best." At this moment, Xiong Ye can only rely on them. These four words are all the confidence he places in them.

Uehara Mika sympathized with Xiongye and was deeply moved by his words, so she walked up to Xiongye firmly:

"We promise you, but whether we can win... depends on our racing god!" Her eyes turned to Fujiwara Takumi.

Fujiwara Takumi also nodded and said: "Don't worry, we are all friends, I will do my best." Xiongye was so moved that tears filled his eyes after hearing this. Not daring to delay anything, he immediately called the boss of the project.

"Yes, I'm Xiongye. How about we have a meal together? I have a few people here who know about racing, maybe... we can find some common topics!"

From Xiongye's simple laughter, it's not hard to guess that the boss agreed. Fujiwara Takumi, Uehara Mika and others didn't have any special reactions, they just wanted to have a good game.

"When?" Xiong Ye hesitated for a moment, then suggested: "How about tomorrow at noon? What do you think?"

The time was set at tomorrow noon.

After agreeing on a time, Xiongye waited until the other party hung up before putting down his phone, and couldn't help laughing out loud. It was obvious that he was very happy.

"You should go to bed early. We'll talk again tomorrow morning. Good night."

After saying good night, Xiongye climbed into bed and fell asleep. The next morning, he got up early, found Fujiwara Takumi and his group, and took them to the mall, intending to make them look more respectable in front of their boss.

Xiongye was in a good mood and couldn't wait to take Fujiwara Takumi and others to the mall to change into new clothes early in the morning.

Such a great undertaking is actually quite good.

Xiongye is very generous with his money.

At first, Fujiwara Takumi, Uehara Mika and others were a little uncomfortable with it, but after repeated persuasion from Xiongye, they gradually accepted it.

"We are friends, and friends should help each other. Think about it, you helped me so much in the past, but now you are unwilling to accept even such a small favor. Aren't you treating me as a friend?"

This was really the first time they saw Xiong Ye being so sincere.

I have to say that Xiongye has become much smarter during this period. Such a change is not a bad thing.
