Chapter 729: Chapter 729: I Want to Add a Condition
“From the tone of Miss Qin’s conversation earlier, it seems like she has had experience with corporate management before. But, I’ve heard that your specialization is law?” Ye Zhanxing casually inquired.
“I did study it for a while; he taught me.” Qin Youxuan’s fair fingers pointed to Dan Hanjie beside her.
Learning from a master, one can make progress at a fast pace.
“What about your family? You are so talented; haven’t your parents ever thought of getting you involved in the company operations…”
Ye Zhanxing seemingly asked about Qin Youxuan’s family situation and her childhood, unintentionally.
Qin Youxuan took her meal seriously, which didn’t leave much room for thinking.
She gave random and unfocused replies.
In the end, she seemed a bit impatient, “Mr. Ye seems quite interested in my past?”
His incessant questioning was really disturbing her meal.
At first, Qin Youxuan was worried that Ye Zhanxing might give her a hard time because of Ye Mingmei, but now she could confirm that he was indeed trying to cause her trouble.
He didn’t even let her eat her meal in peace, how could it be anything other than torture?
Perhaps all this probing was to gather information for his daughter’s future face-off against her.
A flicker in Qin Youxuan’s cat-like eyes indicated her increasing apathy towards the conversation.
By the time their meal was finished, Qin Youxuan’s impression of Ye Zhanxing had taken a serious nosedive.
Weren’t high-society norms about dining etiquette and not speaking during meals?
He kept asking her questions and she had a really hard time eating.
Hearing a bunch of her ambiguous replies, Ye Zhanxing’s brows furrowed tighter, seemingly pondering over something.
“If it’s convenient for Mr. Ye, I would like to ask for a favor.” As the dinner was about to end, Dan Hanjie lightly opened his mouth.
“Are you trying to make Ye Group take the blame for your actions?” Ye Zhanxing’s eyes flashed with a sharp edge as he leaned back on his chair, his face resumed its inscrutable expression, showing a hint of anger.
“Thinking that you could scheme something involving Interpol against the Ye family, you’re underestimating us too much!”
“Mr. Ye, there’s no need to be upset.”
Dan Hanjie lifted his glass of red wine, took a discreet sip, and then calmly began to speak.
“Adding one more shipment order isn’t a difficult task for Mr. Ye. I’ll take responsibility for all the losses of Ye Group. Additionally, I’ll pay an extra 100 million for damages to Ye Group’s reputation.”
Dan Hanjie paused for a moment, “I heard Mr. Ye had his eyes on a property in East Asia, but Dan Clan beat you to it. I will soon be taking over the project cooperation in East Asia. If you’re still interested, I might consider making a sacrifice.”
On the market, it’s all about a clear distinction of interests.
Once the price is right, there’s nothing that can’t be traded.
Dan Hanjie understood this principle, and so did Ye Zhanxing.
Furthermore, in addition to financial gains, Dan Hanjie would owe a favor to the Ye family. This deal wouldn’t be a loss for the Ye’s.
Dan Hanjie must have calculated his bottom limit accurately to offer such a deal.
Ye Zhanxing looked very serious, thought for a moment, and then said, “I can agree to help you this time, but on one condition.”
“Please, do tell.” Dan Hanjie unfolded his indifferent expression, well aware that Ye Zhanxing would be interested.
“I know you’ll be going to Japan soon, let Mingmei accompany you and guarantee her safety.”
Dan Hanjie refused without any thought. He subconsciously turned his head to look at Qin Youxuan, noticing her flinching expression, he knitted his brows.
Turning back to look at Ye Zhanxing, he didn’t understand what he was trying to get at.
By asking Ye Mingmei to accompany him, was Ye Zhanxing trying to seize opportunities for his daughter?
