Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhuang Hang was confused by Xiao Ting’s explanation. Confused, he asked, “Since you want MO Qian’s help, why did you make things difficult for him just now? It’s already very generous of him not to bear a grudge against you for bidding with such malicious intent. Do you think MO Qian will still agree to your request if you do this? Aren’t you messing around? Director Xiao, what are you thinking?”
Zhuang Hang wasn’t the only one who was confused. Even Zhuang Bai, who had been silent the entire time, was also confused.
He looked at Bureau Chief Xiao curiously and thought for a while before asking, “Director Xiao, you don’t think that you’ll have a chance to talk to MO Qian in detail just because you got the ghost hand Lotus, do you? Or do you think that after you bid for this ghost hand Lotus, you can grasp MO Qian’s
‘weak spot’ and make him obediently agree to your so-called project request?”
Looking at Xiao Ting’s slightly red face, Zhuang Bai knew he was right. He smiled helplessly and continued, “Let’s not talk about whether you can compete with MO Qian regarding financial resources as the Bureau chief or whether your words and actions just now were appropriate. Just from your attitude of asking for help, you are already wrong!
MO Qian is just a businessman, not a dangerous or ferocious beast. Do you have to be so wary of him? Can’t you talk to him face to face if there’s anything?
You’re asking my father to keep you company and using all sorts of little tricks. I don’t know if you’re looking for a business partner or trying to make enemies. Please don’t blame me for speaking unpleasantly as a junior. It’s just that your actions tonight were a little too much! You’re making a straightforward matter so complicated. You shouldn’t have done that!”
Xiao Ting understood the reasoning behind the Zhuang family’s words. However, the collaboration he would discuss with MO Qian was a serious matter!
There were a lot of twists and turns in the process, and the situation was complicated and ever-changing. Xiao Ting received an order from his superiors that to safely advance this project, the person in charge of this major project had to escort it!
Of course, before things were confirmed entirely, he still needed to keep it a secret from the outside world!
Xiao Ting had been worried about this matter for the past few days. He didn’t want to give MO Qian too many chances to decline, so he had no choice but to do this! He was so anxious that he had no other choice.
He naturally understood that Zhuang Bai was right, but he had been too anxious, so he had made such a mistake!
To Xiao Ting, this was the worst possible situation. Not only did his plan not succeed, but he also offended MO Qian completely. Things had come to a standstill, and Xiao Ting had a headache.
Zhuang Ming had been listening to his two sons’ conversation in silence. The changes in Xiao Ting’s expression did not escape Zhuang Ming’s eyes.
He pondered for a long time and seemed to have thought of something. He said in a low voice, “The important project that Director Xiao is talking about, could it be about City H’s investment in R nation? Had the higher-ups already made an announcement? Which company would be the target in country R this time? Do we know it?”
As Zhuang Ming spoke, a bright light suddenly flashed in his mind. He excitedly asked, “Director Xiao has decided to let the MO Corporation participate, so this project must be enormous!
Could the target company in country R be the world-famous Doug Corporation? Only one Doug in Japan can rival the MO Corporation!” Xiao Ting didn’t expect Zhuang Ming’s eyes and ears to be so sharp!
He looked at Zhuang Ming’s expression and had a vague guess in his heart. Zhuang Ming didn’t look like he had known about it in advance. Instead, he seemed to have just guessed it! Looking at it this way, Zhuang Ming’s wisdom was close to a demon’s.
For something that still needed to be kept top-secret, Zhuang Ming could guess most of the details based on such a minor detail.. Zhuang Ming must be a brilliant person!
