Chapter 54: Chapter 54 Squeeze Every Last Drop of Value Out of the Invitation Chapter 54: Chapter 54 Squeeze Every Last Drop of Value Out of the Invitation Xiao Yue had indeed heard that the real owner of Jungle was not Cong Ningyuan.
Cong Ningyuan had always been a good-tempered person, someone everyone could chat with. He was adept at maintaining relationships and was also soft-hearted.
The reason Xiao Yue had been able to obtain some special medicines from Jungle was precisely because he dined with Cong Ningyuan a few times. After some persistent coaxing, Cong Ningyuan agreed to share some medicine with him.
Imposing a ban on Qi Hospital wasn’t something Cong Ningyuan could do.
This time, he had likely offended the actual owner of Jungle, and things had indeed become troublesome.
As he was thinking, his phone rang. He answered it, and a gentle voice came through, “Hello, Mr. Xiao, this is Wen Nianyou.”
“What’s up?”
“Nothing much, I just called to thank you expressly for helping my boyfriend out of a pressing situation. I’d like to invite you to dinner tonight, is that convenient for you?”
“It’s not convenient. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up.”
“Hey, wait a minute!”
Wen Nianyou hastily called out, “I haven’t finished speaking yet. Mr. Xiao, don’t be in such a hurry to hang up.”
“What exactly do you want?”
“Actually, aside from lacking medicine, my boyfriend’s family hospital is also in need of a batch of top-notch equipment. With this equipment, Qi Hospital could reach an even higher level of service.”
“And you want me to sell him medical equipment, too?”
“Yes, I just happened to hear that you acquired a batch of the latest radiation therapy equipment last week, which you haven’t sold yet, right? Why not sell it directly to Qi Hospital?”
Xiao Yue felt she was asking for too much, “That equipment had been reserved by another hospital well in advance. If Qi Hospital wants it, they need to pay a deposit to reserve it first.”
“Ah? Mr. Xiao, you can still get such equipment? I heard that you’ve been targeted by Jungle Pharmaceutical too. It seems that the medical industry is also tacitly refusing to sell you equipment and medicines.”
Having been in business for so many years, Xiao Yue had seen all sorts of outrageous characters, but he hadn’t expected Wen Nianyou to be so shameless. Wasn’t he being targeted by Jungle Pharmaceutical because of her and Qi Yunfan?
He even began to doubt the purpose of Wen Nianyou giving the invitation to Yunzhu.
“Mr. Xiao, look how I gave Yunzhu such a valuable invitation. Helping me with a small favor isn’t too much to ask, right? Otherwise, shall I ask Yunzhu to speak with you?”
“No need. The equipment can be sold to you, but from now on, you and Yunzhu are even; she doesn’t owe you any favors.”
“Oh, Mr. Xiao, what are you talking about? Yunzhu never owed me in the first place. I just like her, that’s why I gave her the invitation!”
Xiao Yue hung up the phone in disgust.
The secretary was anxiously shaking his head on the side, “Mr. Xiao, this batch of equipment can’t be sold! If we sell this, what will we give to Youhe Hospital?”
Xiao Yue waved his hand dismissively, “We’ll just have to find another way.”
After some thought, he still sent Yunzhu a message, “The woman who sent you the invitation is no simple character. If she looks for you, don’t entertain her.”
Yunzhu almost immediately replied, “Why would you say that? Brother Xiao Yue, have you met her too?”
“I have met her; she was at the bar last night as well.”
“Really? I didn’t see her there last night, what a pity.”
She had been too busy being angry to notice anyone else.
“I think she’s quite nice, beautiful and generous. She is the most beautiful sister I’ve ever met.”
Beautiful? Xiao Yue didn’t think so, and he could even spot the traces of plastic surgery on Wen Nianyou’s face.
“You’re too innocent, seeing everyone as good. Stay away from that kind of woman in the future, don’t be deceived.”
“Alright, I understand.”
