Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Because Lu Zhaoyang had some urgent matters at hand, she did not stop him and entered hurriedly into the CEO’s office. As she opened the door, and saw the man laying on the sofa like a spineless sloth, her temper exploded.
“Huo Yunting!”
The man, after having his name called, raised his eyebrow as a seductive smirk appeared on his lips.
“Come, take a nap with me.”
“Nap your ass!”
After withholding her urge to smack him with the files in her hand, she grumpily sat beside him.
“The whole city is in upheaval and you are acting like it does not concern you. How’s the port project going? You’ll let this golden opportunity slip by? Xiang Jinxi will definitely try to get his hands on it, and we cannot allow that!”
“…”
“Huo Yunting, are you listening to me?!”
Seeing that he was about to fall asleep, she pouted.
“I’m listening.” Huo Yunting supported his cheek with his hand, as he lazily said, “It’s mine, it won’t run away.”
“The hell are you playing at?”
Seeing his indiscernible look, Lu Zhaoyang was even angrier.
“Sigh.” Huo Yunting purposely let out a long sigh, as a glint of resignation appeared in his eyes. “Lu Zhaoyang, your temper has been getting worse lately, you need some spanking?”
“Can’t be arsed with you on that now.”
Lu Zhaoyang stared at him, as she slammed a pile of documents onto the table.
“I’ve already registered our interest in the tender, and the proposal is already being drafted. Huo Yunting, I’m warning you, if Xiang Jinxi gets his hands on this project, you… you better be prepared to sleep in the study for the rest of your life!”
“…”
Huo Yunting broke out of his slothfulness and sat up straight.
“Lu Zhaoyang, come back here!”
Lu Zhaoyang walked away without even turning back.
“That woman…”
Huo Yunting shook his head, as he picked up the documents Lu Zhaoyang had left him, and simply glanced through it, seemingly uninterested with the matter. He quickly crossed his legs again and lay down on the sofa. His expression was calm but a mysterious smile was hidden within it.
The due date for the tender competition is in three days time.
At this moment, Xiang Jinxi would be panicking.
He had prepared a gift for him, and whether he accepts or not, it’s up to him.
But, he will accept this gift.
And Huo Yunting was deadly sure of it.
Two days later, Xiangyuan Corp.
As Huo Yunting had guessed, Xiang Jinxi was indeed panicking.
In the last two days, he had tried all sorts of ways, contacted countless of companies to try to convince them to cooperate with him himself.
But, even when he had offered a 50-50 split, no one would budge.
Seeing that time was ticking away, he was anxious, but yet, he could not do anything.
And tomorrow would be the due date.
He had also registered his interest and was already in the midst of preparing the operational proposal.
But he knew that the Xiangyuan today, was no match for Thunderbolt.
“Boss!”
Chi Yun had broke out of his despondency in the past few days, and rushed into the room excitedly, forgetting to even knock.
After noticing Xiang Jinxi’s cold gaze, he somewhat recomposed himself, and said. “Good news, I had just received a call, and the person on the phone said he is interested in working with Xiangyuan to secure the port project together!”
“Is it true?”
At this juncture, even Xiang Jinxi could no longer sit still. “Which company is it?”
“This…..”
Chi Yun frowned, “He did not give out any details, and only said he wanted to speak with you.”
