My CEO Husband Has Some Issues-Chapter 1178: Cooperation Achieved

Many women willingly approached him, but after spending a week together, he didn’t think Susan was that kind of woman. Yet, when Susan suddenly brought herself up at this time, he couldn’t help but ponder more.

Susan hadn’t realized the danger in his eyes and continued on her own accord, "Yes, about Mr. Li."

She slightly tilted her head upwards to seem more confident, which would be more conducive to negotiating with Li Shengxiao. novelbuddy.cσ๓

"The last condition I have is, I hope Mr. Li will not mention me to any of his friends."

This condition was completely beyond his expectations.

But what kind of person was Li Shengxiao? His eyes were like cold stars, sharp as a blade, cutting straight through the heart. "Do you know the people around me?"

Know them? More than just know! Susan knew whom she was dealing with and that disguises were useless. She nodded straightforwardly, "Yes."

She further explained, "But it’s not what Mr. Li might think. I have a personal grievance with one of your friends. For my personal reasons, I don’t want him to know I’m back in Capital City, so I hope that during the period I am called back to Capital City by you, you won’t divulge my name to your friends. I’m not afraid to meet him; it’s just that we have gotten used to not seeing each other, and meeting again would inevitably be awkward. I’m the kind of person who hates dealing with people and fears awkwardness the most. If you can agree to this, I would have stated all my conditions and can voluntarily agree to your requests, as you said."

Li Shengxiao listened silently to her explanation and did not believe at all that she wasn’t afraid of meeting that person.

She wanted a quiet suburban house, a private plane to fetch her, and even previously insisted not to mention her name, all clear signs of how much she wanted to avoid any intersection with that person.

If this wasn’t fear, what was?

However, he wasn’t interested in Susan’s personal affairs and this request wasn’t hard for him. He wasn’t much of a talker anyway, "I can agree to that."

Susan visibly relaxed, her eyes also eased, and she reached out her hand, "Then, I’m pleased we could cooperate."

Li Shengxiao shook her hand briefly and withdrew it. As Susan began to organize the medical equipment and turned her back, he said, "I don’t want to meddle in Miss Susan’s personal matters. Since I’ve agreed to your request, I’ll see it through. Rest assured, if you don’t want people to know you’ve come to Capital City, I’ll erase all information, ensuring you arrive and leave quietly, without anyone knowing. Besides, the compensation that should be given to Miss Susan won’t be withheld just because you didn’t ask for it, and you will receive everything you’re entitled to. Similarly, I hope that when the time comes, you will wholeheartedly help treat my son."

Susan liked talking with smart people because it was always so straightforward. Li Shengxiao was easy to deal with, and so was she. She turned back to face the man, looking directly into his eyes, and sincerely promised, "As long as Mr. Li allows me to quietly treat the little patient, I will do everything in my power to help him. You can be assured of that; I’m not a doctor, but I still have basic ethical standards. Since I’ve promised you, I won’t do a slapdash job."

Li Shengxiao had pressured her, but from start to finish, it wasn’t about forcing her. Moreover, she hadn’t mentioned compensation herself, and Li Shengxiao still remembered, which spoke well of his character.

After her last bit of hesitation was gone, she spontaneously chatted a bit more with the imposing man about the situation of her upcoming young patient...
