"There’s no need to go back. I believe Li Haixiao will return. Since he asked to et , he will definitely show up." After speaking, Old Master Zhang sat down on the chair, gazing outside. He had been waiting for Li Haixiao’s silhouette and, at last, he saw it coming.
Li Haixiao walked into the café with no extra words, took a seat directly, and Old Master Zhang, in an ingratiating manner, ordered a cup of coffee for him. However, Old Master Zhang didn’t expect Li Haixiao to cut straight to the point: "President Zhang, as an elder, to secure cooperation for the Nanxi property, you actually resorted to using a younger generation. Do you think that’s appropriate?" Li Haixiao’s smile concealed a dagger, his gaze piercing through Old Master Zhang. In that instant, Old Master Zhang felt a chill down his spine, as though Li Haixiao’s eyes could kill.
Old Master Zhang had co with hopes of discussing the contract, but seeing Li Haixiao’s deanor, he had no choice but to swallow his pride. "Yes, President Li, you’re right." Thickening his skin, Old Master Zhang still pressed on the subject of cooperation. Poor Old Master Zhang—he never imagined that this eting would have nothing to do with cooperation but was, in fact, about settling scores over his use of Li’s daughter.
"So, President Li, regarding the Nanxi cooperation project, do you think we could..."
Li Haixiao cast a contemptuous glance at Old Master Zhang. "Oh? Cooperation? What cooperation? I don’t recall having any cooperation. And yet, after exploiting my daughter, you still have the audacity to talk to about cooperation?"
Old Master Zhang asked, "Wasn’t it your secretary who invited out, saying it was to discuss the Nanxi project? How could you not know about this?" Old Master Zhang looked at Li Haixiao in confusion.
"Oh~ Are you talking about that eting? Yes, I’m well aware of it. But I’m sorry, my purpose in inviting you out today, under the guise of discussing cooperation, was actually to settle accounts. You’d better be prepared for my revenge!" With that, Li Haixiao turned and left.
To ensure a successful partnership for the Nanxi property project, Old Master Zhang had rushed to the café right after finishing a eting at the company. When Old Master Zhang arrived, it was only 9 a.m. After hearing Li Haixiao’s words, Old Master Zhang slumped into his chair. Even Old Master Zhang’s secretary couldn’t help but sigh inwardly: "Sigh, the president really went all out for the Nanxi property project. Ever since President Li’s secretary asked to et, the president has barely rested, worrying about whether the contract would go through or if unforeseen problems would arise during the negotiations. The past few days have been agonizing. Finally, today is the day, and he even rushed here early to wait. But who could’ve guessed that President Li didn’t co to discuss cooperation at all, but rather to settle scores over the president’s use of his precious daughter?!"
Later, your mother used up all her assets to save the company.
Li Haixiao was truly enraged: "In this entire city, no one dares to use Li Haixiao’s daughter. And that Old Zhang, that old bastard, had the audacity to exploit my daughter to achieve his goals. Hmph!"
"Xiao Cheng, go and invite Old Master Zhang out. Tell him I want to discuss the Nanxi property project with him!" Xiao Cheng was Li Haixiao’s right-hand man, his most capable and trusted assistant. Among Li Haixiao’s four aides, Xiao Cheng commanded the highest salary.
The next day, after arriving at the office, Li Haixiao instructed his secretary to contact Old Master Zhang. The pretense? To discuss cooperation. The reality? To settle accounts. How could Li Haixiao tolerate anyone exploiting his beloved daughter?
"President Zhang, hello, I’m the secretary of the President of Li Corporation. You can just call Xiao Cheng. Our president would like to invite you to discuss the Nanxi property developnt project. Do you have ti?" Xiao Cheng politely inquired about Old Master Zhang’s availability.
Following Li Haixiao’s instructions, Xiao Cheng extended the invitation to Old Master Zhang. Hearing the proposal, Old Master Zhang thought Li Jiayuan must have spoken on his behalf to her father, prompting Li Haixiao to agree to a collaboration. But reality delivered a ruthless slap across Old Master Zhang’s face.
"Sure, I’m available at any ti. But when will President Li be free?" Old Master Zhang asked Xiao Cheng, his gaze fixed on him. His eyes glead like a starving wolf eyeing fresh prey, almost salivating, terrified that this juicy piece of at would slip away.
Xiao Cheng noticed the ravenous look in Old Master Zhang’s eyes and sighed inwardly for him: "Sigh, if only Old Master Zhang knew the president didn’t intend to discuss cooperation at all but ca to settle accounts. I wonder how his face will turn green. But then again, this is exactly what Old Master Zhang deserves. Of all people to exploit, he chose the president’s daughter. Everyone knows Miss Jiayuan is the president’s most cherished treasure. How could he allow her to be used like this? Sigh!"
