Chapter 379 Blonde Beauty, Blatant Seduction

Jiang Jing leaned in closer, hooking his fingers around Jiang Yan's slender ones, looking at her with mischievous intent as if plotting something naughty.

Feeling the warmth from his fingertips and the unmistakable intent in his gaze, Jiang Yan felt a flush of red rise to her cheeks and gave him a coquettish glare.

She whispered chidingly: "You, you're just incorrigible! This is a company!"

However, her slightly trembling fingertips and the hand she didn't immediately pull away betrayed her inner turmoil.

For her, this secret thrill held an equally irresistible attraction.

Just as Jiang Jing was preparing to pester her further and stage an exciting scene where Jiang Yan would hide under the desk...

"Knock, knock, knock!" The conference room door was knocked.

Like a startled deer, Jiang Yan yanked her hand back and quickly smoothed out her clothes, which were already wrinkle-free.

She took a deep breath, struggling to calm her racing heart and the flush on her face.

The assistant's clear voice came from outside the door: "CEO Jiang, the representatives from the new batch of overseas partners have arrived and are waiting in the reception room."

Jiang Yan sighed helplessly and turned to look at the sullen-faced Jiang Jing, her eyes seeming to say: See? I knew it.

She composed her expression, regained her composure as a female CEO, and replied to the door: "Alright, please ask them to wait in Conference Room One; I will be there shortly."

After speaking, she looked at Jiang Jing, her tone carrying a hint of imperceptible coquettishness and apology: "Big Boss, I have to go entertain the foreigners again."

The reward that was practically in his grasp had flown away, which left him feeling somewhat sullen.

Seeing him look so deflated, Jiang Yan felt both annoyed and amused. She whispered quickly:

"We'll talk tonight!"

Then, clicking her high heels, she left the conference room with elegant poise to go greet the new foreigners.

However, as Jiang Yan stood up to leave, he quickly reached out and gave her pert buttocks a firm but gentle pinch, collecting a little interest in advance for the battle to come tonight.

"Eek!" Jiang Yan let out a soft cry. She turned back and glared at him, both shy and annoyed, and silently mouthed the word "Pervert!" before hurrying out of the conference room to welcome the new guests.

Jiang Jing sat leisurely in the main seat, showing no intention of getting up to greet them.

As the big boss of Xingchen Technology and an inventor holding era-defining technology, it should be these people coming to curry favor with him.

Besides, having his fun interrupted really did leave him feeling a bit sullen.

Soon, Jiang Yan led the new batch of visitors into the conference room.

This time, it was another group of distinguished-looking foreigners, including representatives from globally renowned industry giants as well as members of low-key but powerful plutocratic families.

However, when they saw Jiang Jing still sitting firmly in the main seat without rising to greet them warmly,

their faces showed not a hint of displeasure. Instead, just like the previous group, they instantly filled their faces with warm smiles.

They all took the initiative to step forward and greet Jiang Jing.

"Mr. Jiang, I've long admired your name! Today, I am finally honored to meet you in person!"

"Chairman Jiang, your achievements are astonishing. Our family is full of anticipation for working with you!"

"It is our honor to meet a genius like you!"

Various flattery was thrown around like it was worthless, and they kept their posture extremely humble.

Unfortunately, flattery isn't all that great; the same rhetoric made Jiang Jing's ears callous.

The gap in vocabulary was becoming apparent...

As the saying goes, one shouldn't strike a smiling face. Faced with such an enthusiastic crowd, Jiang Jing couldn't keep putting on airs.

He stood up and shook hands with the few leaders, which served as a gesture of welcome.

The following process was almost a carbon copy of the previous batch.

Jiang Yan and the group first discussed the procurement matters.

Regarding the price, Jiang Jing insisted on treating everyone equally; it remained at 300,000 USD per set after tax.

He knew well the principle of "worrying not about scarcity, but about inequality."

If the price were higher, he wouldn't care about that extra profit, and it might instead cause unnecessary trouble.

If the price were lower, wouldn't he be losing out?

This price could ensure that Xingchen Technology obtained huge profits while remaining within the acceptable range for these top-tier forces.

Sure enough, this group seemed to have received some wind of it in advance; they did not express any objections to this pricing and instead all seemed very satisfied.

After all, the pricing power for the monopolized technology was in Jiang Jing's hands, and being able to secure a long-term supply was already a victory for them.

The negotiations proceeded unexpectedly smoothly. The cooperation intent was quickly finalized, and the other party efficiently signed a first procurement order of a huge amount.

Just when Jiang Jing thought things were over and he could continue to ponder his "office romance,"

a leader who appeared to be the representative of some old European family—an elderly man with meticulously combed hair and a steady temperament—

let his gaze flicker, as if he still wanted to make a final effort.

He gave a subtle look to a blonde woman among his entourage who had been standing quietly but whose radiance was hard to conceal.

The blonde, blue-eyed woman received the signal, and her face immediately blossomed with a highly alluring smile. She walked gracefully with a cat-like gait, strolling up to Jiang Jing.

She possessed typical European features—deep, three-dimensional facial contours, fair skin, azure eyes, and a long head of hair like a golden waterfall.

Her figure was even more hot and sexy, wrapped in a well-tailored professional suit, with a curvaceous body and stunning curves.

She parted her red lips, and the Chinese she spoke carried a slight foreign accent, which only added to the allure:

"Respected Mr. Jiang, excuse the intrusion. Your talent and achievements are like the brightest stars in the night sky, worthy of admiration."

"(A string of flattery)... I wonder if we might be able to engage in a deeper level of cooperation with you? For example, purchasing the patent for this Prosthetic limb? We are willing to pay any price you can imagine."

Her words were full of temptation, and her gaze was bold and direct, as if hinting that "any price" included herself.

Combined with her highly aggressive beauty and hot figure, it was indeed full of irresistible temptation.

Watching the person before her blatantly seduce Jiang Jing, Jiang Yan frowned slightly, feeling very displeased.

If it were an ordinary person, it would probably be difficult to remain calm under such an offensive from a beauty.

Jiang Jing looked with great interest at the beauty before him who had been used as a "secret weapon" by the other party.

Hmm, nice voice, very alluring.

Pretty face, matches his aesthetic.

Her figure is even more excellent, she can be called a femme fatale.

However, Jiang Jing's bottom line of principles was very clear.

He appreciated beauty, but he would absolutely never trade core technology for it.

He still wore a faint smile on his face and shook his head: "Thank you for the compliments, beautiful lady, and for your side's high regard."

"However, regarding the patent, I have already clearly stated my position before; I have no intention of selling it."

"For this technology, we will cooperate through product exports; this point will not change."

Seeing Jiang Jing refuse so decisively, a trace of imperceptible disappointment flashed in the blonde woman's eyes, but the smile on her face remained charming.

And the family representative behind her had a slightly stiff expression; clearly, this result was not what they had hoped for.

However, after Jiang Jing refused, looking at the exotic beauty full of charm before him, his heart couldn't help but become active.

'The patent cannot be sold, but... I wonder if I could develop a beyond-friendly relationship with this beauty?'

With a thought, he secretly brought up the system and began to check the blonde woman's information.
