As the president of a corporation, he understood more clearly than anyone else the importance of this partnership for his company. Although his company played a leading role in this collaboration, without the Lin Group’s participation, it would just be an empty shell. Lacking that critical support, it would ultimately be a fatal blow.
Thinking of this, his face was filled with an unparalleled anxiety.
However, Miss Zhang, who was beside him, couldn’t comprehend why her father was bowing his head so much. Wasn’t their company in the leading position? Shouldn’t they be the ones to threaten this man? Why, then, had everything reversed, making them the ones being threatened?
Her face was full of anger as she continued to gaze at the handso face of the person in front of her, her eyes and heart filled with indignant unwillingness: "Dad, why are we pleading with him? If we don’t collaborate, then we don’t. I’d really like to see how the Lin Group operates without us."
A stern reprimand imdiately interrupted her: "Shut up. Is this a place where you have a say? So irresponsible."
After scolding his own daughter, Chairman Zhang continued to look at Lin Mubai with an apologetic smile: "Chairman Lin, I’m really sorry. My daughter is unwise and has offended you. About the collaboration..."
His words were once again interrupted by Han Xiayang, who had remained silent: "Enough, Chairman Zhang. You say your daughter is unwise, I find that funny. A woman who is almost thirty and still unwise—no wonder she can’t get married. Now I understand."
With that, he ignored the father and daughter’s grim expressions and continued to speak coldly: "Earlier, didn’t you say, Chairman Zhang, that your company did not wish to collaborate with us? Then let’s not collaborate. Why make it difficult? Furthermore, Chairman Zhang, don’t doubt the words our president just spoke. We indeed signed a contract with another company earlier today, before you arrived."
With Han Xiayang’s further confirmation, Chairman Zhang had no choice but to believe it.
Once again, his face turned ashen. The woman beside him watched him like this, the words on her lips swallowed back deeply, even swallowing hard, with a face of disbelief, unwilling to believe what her eyes were seeing. Why had things turned out this way? Clearly, they were the ones in the leading position. How had they now turned to begging the other party?
At this mont, Lin Mubai stood up from the sofa, not even sparing a glance at the Zhang mother and daughter, and directly said to Han Xiayang: "Chairman Zhang and Manager Zhang can be seen out by you. I’m going back to my room to pack. We leave for B City in an hour."
"Yes, President." Although in private they were casual with each other, in public, when it was ti to act, they needed to perfect their performance.
At this mont, Han Xiayang’s every action matched those of a subordinate.
Just as Lin Mubai was about to step out of the room, an unwilling female voice called out to him from behind: "Lin Mubai, why? Why? Why don’t you like ? I like you so much."
The questioned Lin Mubai couldn’t even be bothered to respond. Without turning his head, he continued walking away, leaving her with an indifferent silhouette.
