He Xiaopeng sat in his car and sighed. He wondered what was going on. There was no reason to cancel the contract. He could not understand.
The price he offered was not low either.
As he was thinking, he suddenly realized that when Mr. Yin said that they could not collaborate with each other, it was not that they did not want to. Could it be that soone had stopped Mr. Yin from doing so? But Lu Ming Corporation had just been ford, so how could they have offended anyone?
He scratched his head, but no one could answer his questions.
Fortunately, only Mr. Yin did not want to cooperate. He had other factories that were willing to continue working. Just as he was trying to pull himself together, a text ssage popped up on his phone.
[Mr He, the contract we discussed previously is invalid. The termination fee has been transferred to your account.]
Canceled?
Why another cancellation?
He Xiaopeng quickly made a call, but the other party did not answer.
His heart sank to the bottom of the pit. What is going on? Did they discuss this beforehand? Even the timing is about the sa.
However, he was still hopeful that it might just be a coincidence.
He started the car and drove northeast.
Hangrui Corporation.
He Xiaopeng walked quickly to the front desk and said, “I’m looking for your CEO Wang. Can I go in now? Or, is CEO Wang free?”
He had to find out the reason!
It was strange to terminate the contract for no reason.
‘The receptionist said in embarrassnt, “You have to make an appointnt before you can enter. If you’re really anxious, why don’t you make an appointnt now? It might be your turn tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. May I know your na?”
“He Xiaopeng, I ca to you last ti. Can’t you make an exception?”
He Xiaopeng?
The receptionist froze and looked at him in surprise. She said, “Sorry, our reservation quota is full. Why don’t you try again after so ti?”
22?
He Xiaopeng said with a dumbfounded expression, “Didn’t you say that it would be my turn tomorrow? Why is the quota full in just a few seconds?”
‘When she heard his na, her expression changed.
Could it be that the higher-ups have given her so instructions? he wondered.
“What do you an by this? Did CEO Wang ask you to do this? If you don’t tell what’s going on, I’ll run in to find your boss now!”
The receptionist spread her hands and said, “I’m sorry, our boss has given a death order. If you co looking for him, I have to say that you can’t make an appointnt. Also, even if you want to barge in, it’s useless because CEO Wang went on a business trip at midnight.”
Business trip???
Why does he have to do it at this ti of all tis?
Is he avoiding ?
He Xiaopeng frowned and said, “I just want an answer. Weren’t we having a good ti when we were talking about cooperation? Why did he suddenly want to cancel the contract?”
“This…”
The receptionist forced a smile and said, “Sir, how would I know if you ask this? Why don’t you try calling the boss?”
“He won’t answer.”
‘The two of them looked at each other and were silent for a while. He Xiaopeng seed to have thought of sothing and said, “Why don’t you give him a call from the company?”
“I don’t have the authority.”
If her boss found out, she might lose her job.
He Xiaopeng naturally knew what she was thinking and said, “If he asks, just say that I pestered you to do this. That should be fine, right?”
Seeing that she was starting to hesitate, he struck the iron while it was hot and continued, “Help call him once, just once. Regardless of whether we can talk, I’ll leave voluntarily. How about that? I’ll definitely not make things difficult for you again.”
The receptionist did not want to continue talking nonsense. She had other work to do, so she pressed the button to put the receiver on speaker.
“What happened at the company? Didn’t I say not to call if there’s nothing urgent?”
“Chairman Wang, it’s …”
Before He Xiaopeng could finish, the other party hung up after a few seconds of silence.
He took a deep breath!
This made him even more certain that the other party was avoiding him!
But… Why?
“Sir, can you leave now?”
The receptionist’s voice pulled him back to reality. He thanked her and left.
He Xiaopeng, who had returned to his car, wondered who he had offended. So just as he was about to call his boss, the call interface popped up!
He raised his eyebrows slightly. This person… had a good relationship with him. He wondered if he was calling to cancel the contract. That would be terrible.
“Boss Lu, why are you looking for ?”
“Lhave sothing to talk to you about. Co to the Flying Crane Manor. I’ll wait for you here.”
“Is there really a problem?”
He Xiaopeng had received bad news consecutively and was dumbfounded.
But he still had to pull himself together to discuss cooperation with others.
What the hell! he thought.
Why are unlucky things happening one after another today? It’s as if they’re planned!
He hoped it was just his imagination.
Flying Crane Manor.
Shanghai’s famous five-star hotel had the interior design of a Ming dynasty building, so many Internet celebrities would co to take photos. Perhaps because the food was so expensive, they would order just a few dishes and eat for half a day.
‘The waiter ushered He Xiaopeng to a private room.
“Boss Lu?”
‘The man dozing in the wooden chair looked up. “You’re finally here.”
He yawned involuntarily, looking dispirited as if he had not slept last night.
He Xiaopeng noticed this and said, “You seem very tired.”
“I didn’t sleep much.”
In the middle of the night, when he was about to fall asleep, he was woken up by a call from Beijing. He worked until dawn and imdiately called He Xiaopeng over.
“Ljust wanted to tell you about the contract…”
“You want to cancel the contract too?”
He Xiaopeng asked with an ugly expression.
Rubbing his face, Mr. Lu said as expected, “Looks like soone has made the first move. Are you interested in telling who it is?”
“.. Mr. Yin and CEO Wang from Hangrui Group. The forr didn’t tell the reason and simply said that he didn’t want to collaborate. As for the latter, he went on a business trip at midnight. He sent a text ssage not long ago, and now it’s you. Why exactly is that?”
He Xiaopeng was dumbfounded.
“Well, we actually received a notice yesterday that the Tang family in Beijing has prohibited us from working with Lu Ming Corporation. They will be responsible for paying the breach of contract fees.”
Boss Lu took a sip of ice water to refresh his mind.
The Tang family residence is in Beijing.
Isn’t that the family of his boss’s father’s second wife?
Why?
He thought it might be because they found out that the boss was Lu Yaohua’s son..
