205 Relax
“I don’t know either. Also, everyone, stop shouting. The soundproofing here is very good. No matter how much you shout, you won’t be heard outside. I advise everyone to save your energy.”
With that, he left the room and closed the door.
At this moment, Shan Yue already had a rough plan in mind, and the most important step in this plan was Carter. Only by working with him could she logically completely take down his brother.
Then, Shan Yue spent a little money and easily found out from the hotel’s people that Carter had been staying in the Vienna Hotel in the city center recently.
Taking advantage of the gradually enveloping night, Shan Yue arrived at the entrance of the Vienna Hotel and looked for the place with the most concentration of bodyguards. Sure enough, she found Carter’s room on the thirteenth floor.
Shan Yue hid around the corner and gently shook her ring. A few wisps of incense smoke slowly rose. After holding her breath for half a minute, the two bodyguards at the door had already fallen to the ground.
She casually took out a silver needle and inserted it into the lock. In order to prevent making too much noise, she turned it gently towards the lock.
After a clack, the door opened.
“The presidential suite.” Shan Yue’s lips curled up. “As expected, all the young masters of rich families are the same.”
Shan Yue looked around and did not find anyone in the room. After she walked into the room, she heard singing coming from the bathroom.
When Carter came out of the bathroom, he found Shan Yue sitting on the sofa casually fiddling with the fruit knife in her hand as she ate the fruit on the table.
“Where are the bodyguards? Come quickly.” Carter looked flustered and strange. He shouted very loudly, “Who are you? How did you get in?”
“There’s no need to shout.” Shan Yue did not stop what she was doing. Her eyebrows were relaxed. “Your bodyguards are already snoring outside the door. They won’t come to save you.”
“What do you want?” Carter came back to his senses and thought for a moment. “We can talk about anything. I can give you anything you want.”
Shan Yue’s lips curled into a smile. “You’ve misunderstood. I just proved my ability to you. I’m not here to make any requests. I’m the representative of the cooperation company for the land that your brother fought for. However, for the sake of your family competition, he raised the price directly to two billion yuan, so I hope to cooperate with you.”
“Cooperate? How do you want to cooperate?” There was a hint of confusion in Carter’s eyes.
“It’s simple.” Shan Yue raised her eyebrows, her brows exuding relief. “I’ll help you get control of that land. You’ll still sell it to us at the original price of 1.5 billion. That way, you can steal your brother’s credit and not lose anything.”
Carter’s mouth was filled with mockery and disdain. “Why should I believe that you can help me get that project back? This is the first time we’ve met. If I don’t cooperate with you, you won’t have any other choice. I’ve been fighting with him openly and secretly for so many years. I know him very well. You can’t beat him.”
Shan Yue’s gaze faded, and her tone was filled with confidence. “I’m afraid there’s no reason for you not to believe me. You’ve already lost the control of that land. If your brother successfully completes the deal with us, his status will probably be much higher than yours. At that time, you won’t have a chance to make a comeback. Therefore, working with me is beneficial to you. Why don’t you try?”
Carter shook his head and smiled. His gaze faded before he looked away from Shan Yue. “You’re being naive. It’s better to believe in myself than in you.”
“It’s okay. The choice is yours.” Shan Yue was very calm as she casually wrote down her contact information and address. “If you regret it, you can contact me at any time. However, at that time, the conditions won’t be as simple as they are now.”
With that, Shan Yue left the room and returned to the hotel she was staying in. She even deliberately made some noise to let the surveillance people know that she was still in the room.
At this moment, it was a competition to see who could remain calm. She believed that in the face of the pressure of losing his status, Carter would not be in the mood to continue lying in the hotel and thinking about the future.
