Lin Chen glanced at the ti and asked Xiaoling, "Xiaoling, can you drive?"
Xiaoling timidly replied, "I have a license, but I haven't driven before."
Lin Chen nodded, "That's enough."
As he spoke, Lin Chen got out of the car and opened the door.
"Lin Chen, what are you doing? We can't even run that distance," Sophina said anxiously.
Lin Chen smiled, who said we'd run, and without further ado, he pulled Sophina out of the car and shouted to Xiaoling, "Xiaoling, please drive the car back to the office."
With that, Lin Chen dragged Sophina towards the bike lane.
"Wait for ." At that mont, Lin Chen stopped a motorcycle by the roadside, talked to the owner for a bit, and handed a bill to the owner.
Then Lin Chen waved to Sophina.
Sophina instantly felt confused; how could she, a dignified CEO, ride on such an electric bike.
Without any further discussion, Lin Chen pulled Sophina onto the motorcycle.
"Hold on tight," Lin Chen said as he sped off on the motorcycle.
Sophina, dressed in a snow-white princess gown, and Lin Chen, wearing a suit worth nearly a hundred thousand, were riding a motorcycle, imdiately drawing attention from everyone.
To save ti, Lin Chen mostly avoided main roads and sped through alleys instead.
Sophina, sitting on the back, felt her behind getting split in two.
She even felt like Lin Chen was retaliating against her.
At the Manchester Exhibition Center, a row of luxury cars were parked at the entrance.
n and won dressed in brand nas stepped out of these cars.
These were all leaders from the major jewelry industry consortiums of Manchester.
However, amidst the blaring engine noises, an electric motorcycle incongruously mingled inside the line of luxury cars.
At that mont, Sophina felt her face burning with embarrassnt, wishing she could just disappear into the ground.
Lin Chen smiled and said, "Madam CEO, please get off."
Sophina took off her helt and dismounted from the motorcycle.
In fact, gatherings of this elite class were also a show of strength, so everyone was dressed in brand nas and arrived in luxury cars. However, Sophina, known as the most beautiful and elegant CEO in Manchester, had arrived on a motorcycle, imdiately becoming the focus of everyone's discussions.
"Goddamn, the number one beauty of Manchester is truly one of a kind, completely different from those ordinary folks!"
"You didn't see it, the mont Sophina showed up at the venue on a motorcycle, it stunned everyone!"
"What's so great about luxury cars? Sophina's mainstream style is the coolest!"
Hearing the surrounding chatter, Sophina felt utterly speechless. She hadn't had any intention of being non-mainstream; she was simply stuck in traffic.
Lin Chen and Sophina entered the bidding venue, which was already filled with people, and the bidding was set to start in ten minutes.
Looking at the ti, Lin Chen smiled, "How about that, we made it just in ti."
Although Sophina still appeared cool and aloof, inside she felt oddly stirred.
Every girl harbors a desire for thrill. The feeling of racing through obstacles and speeding down alleyways with Lin Chen just monts ago was utterly exhilarating.
Just as Sophina was still imrsed in her princess dreams, suddenly, a cold voice echoed from behind.
"Sophina, you all dare to attend this bid. Let
tell you, as long as I am here, you can't even dream about getting this project."
At that mont, the music started, and a middle-aged man walked onto the stage.
Seeing the middle-aged man who walked up, Sophina's face changed color.
Because that man was none other than the chairman of Vast Spectrum Group, Kuto.
Kuto, licking his potbelly and beaming with a smile, stepped onto the stage and announced, "Ladies and gentlen, I am imnsely honored that our Vast Spectrum Group can collaborate with the Island Nation's Tojo Group on this jewelry project. Everyone knows that this project belonged to the Xia family's business, which was later acquired by the Tojo Group. Although the Xia family had previously signed a contract with a certain company, the major shareholder is now the Oda family, so all previous agreents are hereby void. We will rebid and select the most suitable enterprise."
Seeing that it was Kuto chairing this eting, and knowing that Vast Spectrum Group was a partner of the Tojo Group, Sophina completely despaired at this mont.
Now that Lin Chen had completely offended Kuto, how could the latter possibly hand over the project to Sophina Group?
Kuto then introduced the project and continued, "This ti, we will adhere to the principles of fairness and justice in bidding for this project. Next, we invite the president of the Tojo Group, Oda Market, to speak."
Oda Market!
Hearing this na, Lin Chen was stunned montarily, then saw a familiar figure walking to the center of the venue.
A red cheongsam perfectly wrapped around Ms. Market's stunning S-curve, her originally shoulder-length hair was now elegantly pinned up, and her beautiful eyes carried a touch of coldness.
This was a woman as beautiful as a fairy descending to earth. With every smile and frown, she exuded a bit of iciness, an irresistible allure.
Ms. Market walked onto the stage, her eyes scanning over the crowd, and suddenly, her gaze landed on Lin Chen.
For so reason, her pretty face blushed slightly, yet she quickly averted her gaze from Lin Chen.
What followed was Ms. Market's speech, which was nothing more than so pompous empty talk.
Seeing Ms. Market again, whether it was her aura or the feeling she gave, it was completely different for Lin Chen.
"She said she would leave, so why has she co back, and in such a high-profile manner at that."
Suddenly, Lin Chen realized sothing; the girl before him was not as simple as he had thought.
The bidding phase followed, with each major company describing their proposals to the judges.
Truth be told, everyone was well aware that while capability was one aspect, the most important factor was whether the major shareholder, the Oda family, wanted to pick you.
Several companies went through the bidding presentation, and finally, it was Sophina Group's turn.
Just as Sophina was about to go up, Lin Chen rely smiled faintly, "I'll go!"
"You?" Sophina was taken aback.
Lin Chen smiled and said, "I just looked over your proposal, and noticed a few flaws."
"What?" Hearing Lin Chen's words, Sophina was montarily stunned.
Her proposal was the result of over a month of daily overti work till two or three o'clock in the morning by more than a dozen elites in the company, yet Lin Chen had rely looked at it for ten minutes and found flaws in it.
At this mont, Kuto coldly said, "Does Sophina Group still want to co up to bid? If you don't take the stage within a minute, it will be considered a forfeiture."
This project, originally signed by the Sophina Group and the Xia family, had unexpectedly turned out this way, with the Xia family's assets also being acquired by the Tojo Group at a low price.
Many people harbored schadenfreude towards Sophina Group, and since Sophina's boyfriend had hit Kuto's son, the news had already spread in the nobility circles. Therefore, no matter how perfect the Sophina Group's bidding proposal was, it was very hard for them to win the bid.
Just as everyone's eyes were on Sophina, Lin Chen stood up and walked briskly to the podium.
