By the ti Yang Chen finished massaging those two stinky feet, put on his new socks, and dragged his cotton slippers back to the top-level clubhouse of the Emperor Building, the tripartite cooperation negotiations had already concluded at the banquet.
However, there were noticeably more bodyguards standing on the periphery of the venue, evidently doubling since the shooting incident just now had spread throughout the entire building. Due to police blockade, everyone had no choice but to continue their discussions here.
When Lin Ruoxi saw Yang Chen, looking like an old farr with his rolled-up pants and slippers, entering such a formal occasion, she felt like strangling him!
Li Muhua and Zeng Xinlin, on the other hand, both smiled broadly at Yang Chen.
"Mr. Yang, it's a pity you didn't participate in our conversation," Li Muhua was also quite polite to Yang Chen on the surface, even though Yang Chen was only a small employee of the Yulei side.
Yang Chen waved his hand, "Even if I participated, I wouldn't understand. Have you finished your discussion? I haven't had dinner yet, and I have to go eat later."
To say such a colloquial remark in front of so many company executives was indeed "admirable". Fortunately, everyone didn't bother with him, treating it as if they were watching a clown, just laughing it off.
Zeng Xinlin kindly said to Lin Ruoxi, "Ruoxi, since everyone has more or less reached an agreent, shall we proceed to the final signing stage?"
"I have no objection, Mr. Li?" Lin Ruoxi asked Li Muhua.
Li Muhua smiled, "We've been waiting for a long ti, haha."
With the three parties reaching an agreent, the assistants imdiately placed the contracts, which had been revised and reprinted, on the long signing table. Representatives from the three companies stood behind their respective CEOs, full of various expectations. After all, everyone knew very well that the profits from such cooperation would be imasurable.
Mo Qianni also brought Yang Chen a pair of brand new leather shoes from sowhere, urging, "Quickly change into them. You look ridiculous in slippers."
"We'll be leaving soon anyway, why bother changing shoes?" Yang Chen said indifferently with a smile, having thrown away his shoes directly because they were stained with blood.
3.5
Mo Qianni gave him a disdainful look. "It's not over yet. After signing the agreent, there's still sowhere to go."
Yang Chen, puzzled, scratched his head. "There's another event to attend? Dinner's done, the agreent's signed, why not just go to sleep?"
"Just put on the shoes I gave you. Why so much fuss?"
Yang Chen had no choice but to obediently put on the leather shoes, standing behind Lin Ruoxi with Mo Qianni.
Page after page of contracts were signed, taking almost five minutes to complete. Every detail was confird, and this massive contract took effect imdiately.
With that, the executives of the three companies shook hands with each other, even Yang Chen exchanged greetings with a few unfamiliar faces, the only one he recognized being the chubby vice president, Lu Tao, from Changlin.
Lin Ruoxi also briefly shook hands with Li Muhua and Zeng Xinlin, saying, "According to the agreent, before noon tomorrow, Yulei will transfer five billion Yanxia coins into the shared Swiss bank account."
"We, Changlin, will also transfer five billion. With Mr. Li's Muru Group's additional two billion and technical support, I believe it won't take more than half a year for the new material products to be launched," Zeng Xinlin said with a smile.
Li Muhua confidently added, "With the strong support of both companies, our products will surely be launched earlier. By then, even if the Xu family has the Green Laboratory, their financial shortcomings won't be able to compete with our one hundred and twenty billion. Whoever enters the market first will have the initiative. You two can rest assured and sit back and reap the rewards."
After exchanging so pleasantries, the people from the three companies began to bid farewell, preparing for the official start of the project tomorrow.
As the host, Yulei was the last to leave. Yang Chen, under Mo Qianni's guidance, went to the parking lot under the Emperor Building to et the belated Lin Ruoxi.
Lin Ruoxi, slightly tired, walked over gracefully. Her skin looked almost translucent under the lamplight. Seeing Yang Chen standing with Mo Qianni, she said lightly, "Let's get in the car. Qianni, you drive."
With that, Lin Ruoxi sat in the back seat of her car on her own.
This left Yang Chen with a choice: either sit in the passenger seat with Mo Qianni or sit in the back with Lin Ruoxi.
This girl was really putting him to the test. With a sigh of resignation, Yang Chen glanced at Mo Qianni.
Mo Qianni smiled and winked, indicating that she didn't mind.
Yang Chen didn't hesitate any longer, sitting beside Lin Ruoxi and asking, "It's so late, where else are we going instead of ho?"
Lin Ruoxi half-closed her eyes as if taking a nap. "To my holiday resort."
"Why would we go to a holiday resort for no reason?" Yang Chen beca even more puzzled. Everything seed so strange.
"To sleep," Lin Ruoxi said, and then fell silent.
Mo Qianni didn't drive fast, and although there were fewer cars on the highway at night, it still took forty minutes to reach the holiday resort Lin Ruoxi had ntioned.
Once inside the resort, Lin Ruoxi's secretary, Wu Yue, had already arrived early, leading a group of staff to welco them.
"Ms. Lin, Minister Mo, the rooms have been arranged and you can rest anyti," Wu Yue said, her face as cold as ever, resembling another Lin Ruoxi.
"Arrange dinner for Yang Chen and give him a room," Lin Ruoxi said.
Wu Yue glanced at Yang Chen with so surprise, seeming not to understand why he was here, but nodded nonetheless. "Okay."
Yang Chen found it even more incredible. Wu Yue was responsible for handling Lin Ruoxi's official business matters and didn't need to personally co here for sothing as simple as arranging a room. Since Wu Yue had arrived at the resort early, it was unlikely that her task was just about arranging a room.
However, although Lin Ruoxi remained silent, she hadn't forgotten that her husband hadn't eaten yet. That was sowhat comforting to Yang Chen.
After spending the night in the clean and tidy room at the resort, Yang Chen took a stroll around the resort early in the morning.
The resort was quite a distance from the downtown area of Zhonghai City, with a small town nearby separated from the resort by a sizable lake, surrounded by low hills, creating a serene atmosphere.
What struck Yang Chen as odd was the scarcity of vehicles within the resort and the limited number of guest rooms. It seed less like a holiday resort and more like a private entertainnt venue, with very few external custors.
As Yang Chen was about to return to his room, a waiter suddenly called out to him from behind, "Mr. Yang, Ms. Lin invites you for breakfast."
Yang Chen hadn't expected Lin Ruoxi and Mo Qianni to wake up so early. When he arrived at the buffet restaurant, the two won were already there, facing each other as they ate salad and drank freshly squeezed juice, discussing sothing. Upon seeing Yang Chen approach, both won simply nodded briefly.
Yang Chen took a plate of rice noodles, pulled a chair to sit between the two, and asked with a smile, "You didn't actually co here for a vacation, did you?"
"As the person in charge of this important cooperation project, you could say you've made a significant contribution. So, we brought you here to watch the show," Lin Ruoxi said.
"What show?"
"Do you know the main content of this contract?"
Yang Chen nodded. "Yulei and Changlin each contribute five billion, while Muyun invests two billion, along with the technical support of Muyun Research Institute. The three parties jointly develop new materials using a shared account. The fixed funds cannot be used for any other purposes and are strictly for the developnt and research of new materials. After the products are launched, Yulei is responsible for sales, taking sixty and a half percent of the profits, while Changlin and Muyun respectively take twenty and a half percent and twenty percent of the profits."
Lin Ruoxi smiled faintly and glanced at him. "The sixty and a half percent profit is from a private contract with Muyun. Although I'm curious about how you managed to achieve such results, you've done well."
"Is this praise from the wife to the husband, or from the boss to the employee?" Yang Chen asked with a smile.
"Is there a difference?" Lin Ruoxi frowned, feeling that Yang Chen was about to smooth-talk again.
"Of course, there is a difference. When the wife praises the husband, she gives kisses. When the boss praises the employee, she gives bonuses," Yang Chen said in all seriousness.
Lin Ruoxi's face turned red, and Mo Qianni was still sitting across from them. This guy was starting to be smooth-tongued again. Lin Ruoxi cleared her throat and said, "Hurry up and eat. Xu Zhihong is probably about to arrive."
"Hey, why suddenly change the subject and wait, you ntioned Xu Zhihong?" Yang Chen beca even more confused. "How is Xu Zhihong involved?"
Before Yang Chen could continue questioning, hearty laughter ca from the side of the restaurant.
"Haha, Mr. Yang, in such an interesting drama, how could I, Xu, be absent?" Xu Zhihong, dressed in a white suit with a red tie, resembling a handso prince, approached the three of them, followed by a guy with a ssy hairstyle, looking like he hadn't slept, walking behind him.
