’Bright Moon Bay’ is a traditional dining establishnt. After a century of developnt, the first and second floors remain popular with the general public, but as you reach the third floor, it caters to the upper class, with starting prices so high they make people gasp, and the higher you go, the more expensive it gets.
Yu Sangwan stopped at the highest floor of the dining section, and a waiter imdiately ca up to et her.
"Hello, may I know which reservation you have?"
Yu Sangwan hesitated, "Donghua’s propaganda departnt, I’m not sure which room."
"In that case, please follow ."
The waiter smiled and led Yu Sangwan forward, stopping in front of a door. "It’s this one, please."
"Thank you." Yu Sangwan expressed her gratitude and knocked on the door.
"Co in."
A low male voice ca from inside. Yu Sangwan furrowed her pretty brows, finding the voice sowhat familiar, then pushed open the door and went in.
In the spacious private room, opulently decorated, there was only a small pearwood dining table by the window. What made Yu Sangwan’s eyes widen was the man sitting arrogantly with outstretched arms; it was actually Lu Jinxuan!
"You?" Yu Sangwan blinked, thinking she was seeing things.
Lu Jinxuan lowered his eyelids slightly and pointed to the seat opposite, "Sit."
"How co... it’s you?" Yu Sangwan walked over in a trance, staring at him for a long ti.
Lu Jinxuan leaned forward slightly, his gaze firmly locked on her, "Did you forget the call you made to ?"
Yu Sangwan suddenly realized, the voice on the phone... was him?
"Have you been playing since earlier?" Yu Sangwan was so shocked she almost jumped up.
Lu Jinxuan remained unfazed, spreading his hands, "I told you, you can’t escape."
"You." Yu Sangwan was at a loss for words.
"You’re the grand president of a group, yet you have to go through such lengths with a commoner like ? With your abilities, why focus your energy on ? President Lu, let teach you a thod; stand on top of Donghua Mansion and throw money down. If you want to buy people’s evenings, there are plenty of n and won!"
This was clearly a setup, and Yu Sangwan was not foolish enough to walk into it. She picked up her bag and turned to leave.
Lu Jinxuan’s face turned pale. She was the first to speak to him so bluntly!
"Stop." The low voice carried an innate authority.
Yu Sangwan paused and reluctantly stopped.
Lu Jinxuan stood up, walked to Yu Sangwan’s side, and looked her up and down.
Yu Sangwan felt uncomfortable under his gaze, "What are you looking at? If you have sothing to say, say it straight!"
"Why are you so stubborn?" Lu Jinxuan frowned, genuinely confused, "Is being with such a loss? I can make your life skip ten, even twenty years, or perhaps a life others could never achieve, and you could have it right away."
"Hmph!"
Yu Sangwan’s face stiffened, casting him a disdainful glance.
"Is this your value? Then you are really pathetic!"
Lu Jinxuan looked down in silence, his right hand fondling an antique lighter.
"President Lu, my ten or twenty years are my own. No one can replace how I live them, so how can you take away my ten or twenty years?" Yu Sangwan smirked, her face young but her eyes confident.
"Don’t bother, I’ve never been in your grasp, and it doesn’t matter if I escape or not!"
Lu Jinxuan nodded thoughtfully, "Hmm, very generous words. So... you don’t want the advertisent?"
The implication was if she didn’t agree with him, then the SINO and Donghua advertisent contract renewal would fall through. As the person responsible for the renewal, Yu Sangwan couldn’t evade the bla. Without a big client like Donghua, she might not be able to continue at SINO.
Yu Sangwan gave him a look, then shook her head, "President Lu, do you think there’s anything more important than dignity in this world?"
Having said that, she resolutely pulled the door open and left, leaving Lu Jinxuan with a stubborn figure.
Lu Jinxuan stood there, stunned for a mont, then curled his lips, "Heh, getting more and more interesting."
Parted from Lu Jinxuan on bad terms, Yu Sangwan spent the whole day on edge. She decided to no longer contact Donghua’s propaganda departnt, thinking that after what happened, Lu Jinxuan would surely inform his people not to give the advertisent to SINO.
In the afternoon, just when Yu Sangwan was lying idle on her desk, her supervisor called her in.
"Supervisor." Yu Sangwan stood with hands folded, apprehensive.
"Yu Sangwan! Well done, although it’s just a renewal, I didn’t expect you to complete it in just two days." The supervisor greeted her with a big smile, "Co, co, I think you should stay in the advertising departnt! It suits you!"
Yu Sangwan was a bit puzzled, "Supervisor, what are you saying?"
"Haha." The supervisor laughed heartily, "I just received a call from Donghua, the ad renewal plus two new brands! You have a bright future!"
"..." Yu Sangwan was dumbfounded, not understanding the situation.
How did it succeed in renewing and even expanding the business? Could it be... Lu Jinxuan? Would that person be so kind? If not him, then who could it be?
Returning to her cubicle, the phone on the desk rang.
Snapping back to reality, Yu Sangwan picked it up, "Hello."
"Uh, it’s ."
Yu Sangwan shivered suddenly, sitting up straight, her palms sweating—it was Lu Jinxuan.
"Five brands, 20 million each, totaling 100 million." Lu Jinxuan casually reported a set of numbers.
"Lu Jinxuan!" Yu Sangwan’s cheeks flushed, she glanced around, covering the phone and lowering her voice to scold, "What do you an? I never asked you to do this!"
"Did I say anything?" Lu Jinxuan’s voice carried a slight amusent, but then he continued, "I’m... arranging."
"What?" At this mont, Yu Sangwan’s scalp tingled at the thought of a billion, unable to keep up with Lu Jinxuan’s logic, "Arranging what? What else do you want to do?"
Lu Jinxuan’s voice had a hint of confusion, "Wasn’t it your request? The physical exam."
"..." Yu Sangwan was stunned, so shocked she stood up from her chair, accidentally knocking her coffee cup to the ground, "What are you saying? You you you..."
"Wait, I’ll make you fulfill your promise."
The phone went dead; Yu Sangwan was dumbfounded, a billion promised to her, and now he agreed to that ridiculous physical exam... This man, is he serious? He can afford to, but she can’t!
The supervisor was standing at the doorway, knocking on the door plank, yelling loudly, "Co on, co on, eting ti! Everyone gather in the main conference room!"
Yu Sangwan, dazed and bewildered, followed her colleagues to the conference room, her mind in turmoil, not even paying attention to what the supervisor was saying up there.
"Such good news!" Suddenly, the supervisor slamd the table in approval, "You should all learn, Yu Sangwan, an intern, has this much enthusiasm! Here, the task will be assigned to Yu Sangwan."
Yu Sangwan, hearing the supervisor call her na, snapped back to reality, still unaware of what was happening.
Soone next to her nudged her arm, whispering, "Hey, why did you raise your hand? Indeed, a fearless newcor!"
Yu Sangwan was taken aback, what on earth happened? Her raising her hand? She was just massaging her temples from a headache!
Chapter 11: Beware of Beasts
Yu Sangwan was in a daze, while the supervisor was full of smiles, continuously praising her.
"Good, good, Yu Sangwan, I was right about you! The ’Bona’ paynt falls to you to chase!"
Only then did Yu Sangwan, through her colleagues’ discussions, piece together what was going on... Turns out ’Bona’ had been delaying the paynt for the website advertisent, unpaid from last year till now.
"Supervisor, does the advertising departnt also handle collections?" Yu Sangwan ca back to her senses, feeling overwheld.
The supervisor sighed, shaking his head, "There’s no other way, ’Bona’ is too slippery, the finance departnt has tried several tis with no result, so they threw this hot potato at us, saying if we can’t resolve it, our departnt’s bonus will be deducted next month!"
Yu Sangwan opened her mouth, "But..."
"Oh, you’re so capable, I’m sure you’ll have no problem." The supervisor didn’t give her a chance to speak, standing up to pat her shoulder, "The whole departnt’s bonus depends on you."
As soon as he spoke, all eyes in the eting room turned to Yu Sangwan.
Yu Sangwan didn’t even have the energy to complain; why was she... this unlucky?
With no way out, she had to brace herself and accept.
After the eting ended, she began looking into ’Bona’s’ information, and the more she looked, the less confident she felt... This company was practically a master at delaying paynts in the industry, yet it bore the na of an ’affiliated chain of Donghua’, and nobody dared to do anything about it.
