Just as Li Shanshan finished speaking, Sheng Chuyi pushed the door open and entered. Seeing Li Shanshan in his office, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Why haven’t you left yet?"
Li Shanshan’s face immediately showed embarrassment, but she still restrained her temper and said, "I hope you will seriously consider my proposal from before. If you agree to be with me, I can persuade my father to invest in Zhao Yi. In addition to that, I can also convince him to continue working with Zhao Yi. Think it over, with DT as a big client, the probability of Zhao Yi’s successful IPO will greatly increase. And what I can offer you is far more than just that." After she finished speaking, she didn’t forget to look provocatively in Shen Zhaozhao’s direction.
However, Sheng Chuyi remained unmoved and said coldly, "I have already made it very clear, if Miss Lee is here to discuss cooperation between our companies, I am very welcoming, but if it’s for personal matters, please do not bring it up again."
After being rejected time and again, even Li Shanshan, who was so fond of the other party, could not save face. Annoyed and humiliated, she pointed in Shen Zhaozhao’s direction, "Why? I can give you so much more, and she can’t help you at all. Why would you rather choose her than me?"
Sheng Chuyi: "Because Zhao Yi was created for her in the first place. Without her, Zhao Yi would have no reason to exist."
She was his beginning, as well as his end.
Without her, his efforts would become meaningless.
Li Shanshan and Shen Zhaozhao were both momentarily stunned.
Neither had expected to receive such an answer.
"You will regret this!" A flash of anger and humiliation crossed Li Shanshan’s face. After dropping her harsh words, she left, her high heels hitting the floor hard.
As soon as Li Shanshan left, Shen Zhaozhao raised an eyebrow at Sheng Chuyi and said, "Are you really not going to consider her proposal? I think she made some valid points. If you were really with her, maybe you could struggle a few years less." To be honest, if what was being asked for wasn’t her boyfriend, she was actually quite tempted by the benefits the other party had offered.
"Are you serious?" Sheng Chuyi asked her with a stern face.
"Of course, I was joking." Seeing him angered, Shen Zhaozhao quickly backpedaled, grinning as she stepped forward and hugged his arm, "You’re mine, and nobody is going to snatch you away. It’s just investment, right? Whatever amount you need, I’ll find a way to help you."
Sheng Chuyi glanced at her, "It’s probably around tens of millions."
"Tens of millions?" Shen Zhaozhao gulped and looked in the direction Li Shanshan had left in, "Is it too late for me to go bring her back now?"
If it were just one or two million, she might have managed to think of something, at worst sell the house her parents bought for her. But tens of millions—even if they took out all of their family’s assets, they probably wouldn’t be enough.
"Don’t worry, I will solve the issue with the funds," Sheng Chuyi reassured her.
Indeed, taking the company public was part of his plan. Founding the company was just the first step; he was still far from his ultimate goal. To grow the company, an IPO was one of the essential strategies.
But the company was still a long way from being ready for an IPO.
He didn’t know where Li Shanshan had heard about his IPO plans, but such things were never easy to achieve. He had ample time to plan slowly and was not in a hurry.
Shen Zhaozhao: "I just don’t want you to work too hard."
There was a shortcut available, yet it was ditched because of her.
Truth be told, she did feel a bit guilty.
