Chapter 579: Chapter 578: What the hell is going on?!
“Sure enough, it’s that sa line again! I’ve practically morized it by now!”
“I don’t care how many stores your boss has opened,” Liu Quanyou said, fuming, “this three million, you’ve owed us for over three months already, hurry up and call her to co back and settle the account with us!”
“Mr. Liu, look at you, why are you in such a hurry?” Little Zhao said urgently, “I’ve never seen soone do business like you. It’s just three million, isn’t it? There will be plenty of opportunities for us to cooperate in the future, You need to look at the bigger picture, for this bit of money do you still want to do business in the future or not?”
Three million, that’s what it is! This bit of money?!
“I don’t want to cooperate with you anymore either, just call her to co back and settle the account with !” Liu Quanyou was not polite and plopped himself directly onto the sofa, “If this money isn’t settled, I’m not leaving today!”
“Mr. Liu,” Little Zhao imdiately put on an expression of deep grief, “With such managent, you’ll spend your life only guarding that small company of yours, you need to elevate your vision! You got to hit the main road right? We have many opportunities for cooperation in the future!”
Wang Hao: “…”
Birds of a feather sure flock together, this Little Zhao clearly has learned well from President Yu!
Who exactly has the narrow perspective—have you figured that out yet?
“I’ll just stick to our company and I don’t want to elevate it, and that’s none of your business,” Liu Quanyou said angrily, “just call her to co back and quickly settle the account.”
Seeing that talking was getting nowhere, Little Zhao could only run off to make a phone call. After the call, he ca back and said, “Don’t worry, both of you, President Yu said she’ll co back after finishing her work!”
As long as she cos back, now Liu Quanyou just wants to quickly settle the account and leave!
This Yu Fang looked polished and shiny on the outside, but who knows to what extent her heart is dark – people like her must be avoided in the future!
And so, the two of them started waiting.
From around nine in the morning they waited until two in the afternoon when Yu Fang finally… ca back.
Today, Yu Fang had changed into a black coat that reached her ankles, tailored to perfectly accentuate her slender waist, paired with a large LV bag, and wore a gold watch that sparkled on her wrist. This whole outfit, by Wang Hao’s current standards, wouldn’t co cheap—a hundred and tens of thousands at least.
When it cos to spending money on herself, this woman sure is generous, but collecting debts from her is like pulling teeth from an iron hen—she won’t give up a single penny!
“President Yu, what does this an?” Liu Quanyou asked, none too pleased, “Ran off again, huh?”
Unexpectedly, Yu Fang’s attitude this ti was all kinds of nice, “Oh, Mr. Liu, look at this, we’ve had a misunderstanding, haven’t we? I was planning to invite you to a fairly big gathering, a top-tier one, filled with CEOs from major companies! My husband will be there too! You must co, it’ll be a good opportunity to network with peers for future business dealings, right?”
Had Yu Fang ntioned only the gathering, Wang Hao and Liu Quanyou might not have gone.
But hearing that her husband would also be there, they had to go! No choice, it’s tough to get money from an iron hen of a woman, so the only option left was to try with her husband!
“Fine!” Liu Quanyou said, incensed, “I really want to see what kind of a ga you’re playing!”
Without delay, Wang Hao followed Liu Quanyou out the door to hail a cab, heading straight for the hotel ntioned by Yu Fang.
That hotel, according to the map search, turned out to be one of the more advanced dining places in the area. When Wang Hao and Liu Quanyou arrived, they saw Yu Fang waiting downstairs; next to her was a black Land Rover Range Rover, shiny as a mirror, spotless paint, and well-maintained tires—clearly, the vehicle was newly bought.
“Mr. Liu, you’ve arrived?” Yu Fang called out from a distance to the two n, waving a hand and saying, “Co over here, let introduce you, this is my husband, Li Qiang. Doesn’t he look handso?”
Wang Hao and Liu Quanyou looked over, and there was Li Qiang, also adorned in a sharp suit, tall and with sleek hair, dressed in a shirt and tie, and wearing glossy black leather shoes. His wrist was adorned with a gleaming, high-quality watch—a look that was virtually cut from the sa mold as Yu Fang’s, obviously expensive!
The two of them, one with a Jeep Wrangler and the other with a Land Rover Range Rover, plus their outfits—if not for the fact that they owed money and refused to pay, Wang Hao might really believe they were so rich princess or young master from a wealthy family!
“Hello,” Liu Quanyou said with a forced smile, shaking hands with Li Qiang, “About the money for our company, when do you plan to pay it back?”
“Oh Mr. Liu, look at you, so impatient,” Li Qiang laughed heartily, giving Liu Quanyou’s shoulder a hug, and said, “My wife owns three jewelry stores and an advanced maternity center, and I have shares in Golden Winged Bird, I won’t ever deny that debt! Co, let’s go upstairs and talk, today I’ll introduce you to a few good friends!”
With them saying that, it’s not as if you can just punch them, right?
Wang Hao and Liu Quanyou exchanged glances and followed them upstairs together.
When the four reached the third floor of the hotel, they entered a rather large private room. By the ti they walked in, nearly every seat was already taken. Li Qiang had the waiter add a few more seats.
Those who could attend a gathering like this were certainly no ordinary people. Wang Hao and a few others were lively and joking before they arrived, but as soon as they sat down, the previously jovial atmosphere imdiately chilled, and the conversation dwindled.
After a few eerily quiet seconds, a man who looked like a big shot finally spoke up.
Li Qiang had introduced him upon their arrival: his na was Li Huachao, the CEO of a pretty substantial company.
“Li Qiang, we all share the surna Li, so I’ll be the first to speak up,” said Li Huachao in an annoyed tone. “When are you going to settle that debt? You keep pushing it back. How long do you plan to push it?
Upon hearing this, Wang Hao imdiately understood—no wonder he felt like sothing was missing; this was the missing piece!
I should’ve known; Yu Fang and Li Qiang, such a weird pair, even owing money to a small restaurant, it couldn’t possibly be just us they owed.
“Brother Chao, don’t rush,” Li Qiang filled his cup with Moutai, stood up, and toasted everyone: “Co on, Brother Li, Brother Zhang, Brother Zhao, Brother Chen, Sister Wang, today’s al is on . Please enjoy yourselves!”
Normally, at this point, everyone would still take a drink together, but Sister Wang laughed disdainfully and said, “Give a break, how many tis have you said you’d treat us? You haven’t paid for a single al!
“Sister Wang, I’ve just been so busy!” Li Qiang laughed, then said, “Not today, though. Co on, brother is toasting to you!”
“Cut the crap and pay back the money you owe us first!” Brother Chen, who was sitting down, said irritably, “You’ve owed our company money for nearly a year now. Don’t you think you’ve gone too far?”
“Now look, Brother Chen,” Li Qiang, seeing that no one else responded, casually sipped his drink before saying, “Haven’t I just been abroad recently to negotiate a little business deal? Otherwise, why do you think I invited everyone here today?”
As soon as Li Qiang said this, everyone at the scene was montarily stunned.
He went abroad? And to negotiate business?
“You? What kind of deal could you possibly negotiate? Are you planning to scam more money?” Li Huachao sneered. “I don’t care what kind of business you’re talking about, pay back the money you owe first!”
“Brother Chao, look at you, not even a bit curious. Co on, co on, let show you this,” Li Qiang said as he took out his phone, found a photo, and showed it to Li Huachao. “Co on, look, see if what I’m saying isn’t credible.”
“What is this—Holy shit! For real?!” At first, Li Huachao didn’t seem to care much, but as soon as he took the phone and saw the photo on it, he was imdiately stunned. “How could this be possible?!”
“What’s going on? What’s happening?” Sister Wang, who was sitting next to Li Huachao, was puzzled for a mont but, after glancing at the phone, she too was instantly stunned, “No… could it be?!”
After shocking two people in a row, the crowd at the gathering imdiately erupted into chaos!
“What’s going on, what’s the fuss—quick, let have a look!”
“My God, is this real or fake? Impressive, Little Li, you really did pull off sothing big this ti!”
“You’ve got so connections, huh? Were all my previous worries for nothing?”
Wang Hao and Liu Quanyou were also taken aback—what on earth could have frightened these people so much?!
“Let have a look,” Liu Quanyou said as he took the phone, and the mont he looked, he nearly pissed himself: “Ice… Miss Ice Princess?!”
Wang Hao: “…”
What?! The Ice Princess? Isn’t that our darling?!
He hurriedly grabbed the phone to look, and sure enough, there was Li Qiang standing right next to Bai Yaning, both of them in a photo together!
Holy shit, what’s going on?!
And there was Li Qiang, basking in his glory: “You all believe now, right?! This is Miss Ice Princess, of the Bai family! Where do you think I’ve been recently? Wasn’t it to discuss a partnership with them? Ah, this trip wasn’t easy you know, I specifically flew to France, and I was almost sick from the flight! But in the end, ‘no pain, no gain,’ as they say, and I managed to negotiate a two-billion deal! What do you think, I said I wouldn’t owe you money, right?”
Wang Hao: “…”
A two-billion deal? Sothing’s not right. Our Ice Princess was talking about a four-hundred-billion deal over there! Your two billion… would they even bother with you?
