Chapter 18: A Successful Cooperation
The competition for the project kicked off, during which both MK and the Lu Group had pulled out all stops.
Under Wen Shuyue’s impression, Lu Junhan had seldom taken his work seriously. Even though Lu’s project was way better than his last one, it was still much worse than that of Wen’s.
It went without saying that Mannis decided to cooperate with MK in the end.
After the meeting, only the CEOs of those three companies were left in the meeting room.
“Mr. He, I know you hate me, but you can’t be so unfair. The project of MK is okay, but it doesn’t meet the needs of your company at all. Why the hell do you cooperate with them?” Lu Junhan was deeply upset by the result, looking extremely terrible.
Lu Junhan’s reaction was within Wen Shuyue’s expectation. Wen taunted him causally, “Mr. Lu, you’d better read your project carefully. It is full of loopholes, and most importantly, it fails to spot the problems of Mannis. To cooperate with your company will be a real waste of resources.”
“Wen Shuyue!” Lu Junhan said furiously. He added, pointing at Wen Shuyue, “You’re just the CEO of MK China Office. But the whole world doesn’t revolve around you. He Siming won’t even talk to you if you don’t have that pretty face. Just drop the nice woman act, you bitch! Women like you are so disgusting!”
By such words, Wen Shuyue didn’t feel heartbroken as she would have felt a few years ago.
With a meaningful look in her eyes, Wen Shuyue tried to restrain her anger when she handed her project to He Siming silently, making no response to Lu Junhan.
“What? I got that right, huh? Shame on both of you. I hope you will be killed by the thunder soon in case your existence pollutes the land of Yong City, hum!” Lu Junhan said, totally regardless of losing his decency.
He looked like a wounded beast with bloodshot eyes, struggling to survive with its last strength.
“You know it better who on earth pollutes the land. Lu Junhan, think about it. How did you get your property? You stole it from my family! What makes you so proud and smug about yourself?” Wen Shuyue shrugged her shoulders. Her disdainful attitude made Lu Junhan even angrier.
“Good for you, Wen Shuyue. Just wait and see!” Lu Junhan said, pointing at Wen Shuyue before he turned round to leave furiously.
But he was stopped by some security guards at the door.
This familiar scene triggered Wen Shuyue’s memory of Lu Junhans’ being stopped by some security guards in MK. She didn’t expect He Siming still remembered that scene and made it happen again.
Wen Shuyue stroked her nose and could hardly restrain herself from laughing. Fortunately, she managed to stifle a giggle with her strong self-control.
Lu Junhan asked, “Why do you stop me?” But he received no response from the security guards, so he turned to He Siming furiously. Lu’s eyes glittered with anger when Lu shouted at He, “He Siming, are you nuts? Why do you have them stop me? Don’t you know this is an illegal detention?”
He Siming remained emotionless when Lu Junhan lost his temper.
With a touch of obscure harshness in his eyes, He Siming looked up to stare at Lu Junhan. “You spared no efforts to get this project by making secret deals with vice presidents of Mannis, which even aroused inner contradictions in Mannis. Do you think I’ll spare you that easily?
“I… I didn’t do that. This bitch set me up. It must be her.” Lu Junhan, a usually mighty man, didn’t dare to revolt in He Siming’s company.
Lu Junhan could read He Siming like a book. He Siming was a man of austere methods and rapid implementation. It was scary enough just to listen to the way He dealt with things. Once Lu really offended He, it was unlikely for Lu to leave this place today.
The whole thing aroused Wen Shuyue’s attention. Wen said to Lu Junhan in an indifferent tone with a fixed gaze, “I guess you did the same thing to our company. Oh man, you’re getting much more horrible.”
“That’s nonsense. I’m warning you guys. Don’t you slander me,” Lu Junhan couldn’t find more excuses to defend himself and looked obviously guilty, with his eyes evading constantly.
Lu Junhan still couldn’t get away from the security guards. Lu’s colleagues present in the meeting had already left the room and knew nothing about what happened inside.
“Once you do something wrong, you should be punished. Mr. Lu, mark my words.”
He Siming stood up slowly and took a glance at Lu Junhan coldly before He walked to the door.
When He Siming stopped after a few steps, he squinted slightly and fixed his amber eyes on Wen Shuyue. “Miss Wen, are you lingering over the show?”
“No, I’m not interested in such a boring show.” As soon as Wen Shuyue came to her senses quickly, she caught up with He Siming.
After they left the room, Lu Junhan went crazy. Making threatening gestures, he struggled to leave but the security guards stopped him fiercely and no one answered his call for help.
When one was in other people’s territory, he was in an inferior position. Even if Lu Junhan reported the illegal detention to the police, he would also be prosecuted for what he had done.
The incessant cry of pain from the meeting room was some comfort to Wen Shuyue who wished the man was beaten to death.
When He Siming saw the lady next to him giggling, he knitted his eyebrows slightly and sneered, “Why are you so happy to see your ex-husband being beaten up?”
“Like you said, ex-husband. Of course I look forward to that,” Wen Shuyue blurted out, without hiding her thoughts at all.
Wasn’t she allowed to feel happy about that? If she could give Lu Junhan a lesson by herself, she would definitely feel much happier.
He Siming was somewhat astonished by her frankness. Thinking of her performance of today, he put on a warmer look in his eyes.
“We’re business partners starting today. I hope you won’t let me down.” He Siming reached out his hands to her.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Wen Shuyue was surprised and soon remained calm. She shook his hands politely and said with a light smile, “Any advice rendered would be greatly appreciated, Mr. He.”
“Hmm.” He Siming withdrew his hand and walked away as if nothing had happened.
But Guan Yue who stood behind him was stunned. It was well-known that He Siming was a neat freak who wiped his hand after the shake. But this time…
Guan Yue couldn’t help swallowing. Ever since He Siming met Wen Shuyue, he seemed to have changed a lot.
At the thought of their family of three being together, Guan Yue irresistibly curled up the corners of his mouth. If the three of them became a real family, it would make a very beautiful scene.
Or rather, the most beautiful scene!
