347: Chapter 347 Exchange of Interests

Mei Jinning: "... Leaving it to you?"

Shen Yan: "Yes, leaving it to me."

Mei Jinning laughed.

"You want to annex Gu Corporation? Such great ambition?"

Shen Yan shook his head and replied: "I have no intention of annexing Gu Corporation."

A cold smile flashed in Mei Jinning's eyes.

"If it's not for annexing Gu Corporation, then why should I leave Gu Corporation to you?"

"Although we haven't known each other long, since we are now partners, I think we should be frank with each other."

"For the two of us to cooperate, you must gain some benefits, so I won't stop you from annexing Gu Corporation."

"It's just... with your ability, you can at most swallow one-third. I can..."

Before she finished speaking, Shen Yan interrupted Mei Jinning.

"I said leave Gu Corporation to me. Don't make a move against Gu Corporation. If you don't agree, then our cooperation is off."

As the words fell.

Mei Jinning fell silent again.

After an unknown amount of time, Mei Jinning picked up the red wine glass on the table and took a sip.

"I knew you wouldn't choose to cooperate with me for no reason. Since you put it that way, let's settle it like this."

"I won't make a move against Gu Corporation, and you have to do something for me."

Shen Yan waved his hand.

"Wait, you haven't made it clear what you want me to do for you? What if what you ask me to do involves me taking risks..."

Mei Jinning understood. She gritted her teeth and said: "Don't worry, I won't let you take any risks. I just need you to help me deceive Gu Hui."

Shen Yan's expression shifted, sensing a little of what Mei Jinning planned to have him do.

"You're not thinking of having me cooperate with Gu Hui, are you?"

Mei Jinning nodded and smiled: "Why not?"

Shen Yan laughed.

"Don't you already know that I've fallen out with him?"

Mei Jinning replied: "So what if you've fallen out? We are both businessmen in the commercial world. In the business world, there are no eternal friends, nor eternal enemies."

"As long as there is profit to be made, who cares if you were an enemy or a friend before."

Shen Yan shook his head.

"That's what they say, but he offered me such good terms, and I still didn't agree. Wouldn't it seem a bit too fake if I suddenly agreed now?"

"Besides, he should already know the news of me meeting with you."

Mei Jinning raised her eyebrows and asked: "What do you mean by that?"

Shen Yan spread his hands.

"I don't know either. Every time, he knows the moment I meet with you, just like you, every time I tell him what I did or said, you always get the news immediately."

At this point, his expression turned contemplative.

"Do you think there's a possibility that your secretary is also his person?"

Mei Jinning: "..."

How is this person not dead yet from being beaten by The Supporting Male Character?

After taking several deep breaths, Mei Jinning said to Shen Yan: "Who cares if he knows or not? Even if he knows, it doesn't matter. He is exactly the time when he is short of help."

"With his arrogance, as long as you agree to cooperate with him, he will definitely think that no matter what, agreeing is fine, since he has a thousand and one ways to get things back on track."

As she finished speaking.

Shen Yan let out an exaggerated "Oh."

"It seems you really understand him well..."

Mei Jinning: "..."

This person is too annoying.

She was about to lose her composure.

Thinking this, she suddenly gave Shen Yan a brilliant smile.

"Oh right, didn't you play car racing last time?"

"They are opening the betting again this time, shall we go play a round?"

Shen Yan wasn't that enthusiastic about this matter.

He shook his head without hesitation and refused Mei Jinning.

"No, I'm not going."

Mei Jinning acted as if she hadn't heard Shen Yan's words.

She charmingly pulled Shen Yan and ran straight upstairs.

Because Shen Yan didn't really like being pulled around by a woman, he was eventually dragged by Mei Jinning into the car racing room.

"The last time we came was when all of us gathered. Let's play again this time."

Seeing Mei Jinning like this, he knew that if he didn't play along today, she wouldn't let him leave after this round.

Shen Yan thought to himself while taking the tablet from the boss.

Originally, he intended to just casually pick someone like last time, but unexpectedly, the moment he opened the tablet, he saw the person he had bet on previously.

Discovering that this person was participating in this competition again, he started to seriously look at the person's profile displayed on the tablet.

From the last time until now, this person had participated in three competitions in total.

Whether it was the first or the second time, he had won first place, truly possessing both luck and skill.

Because he had participated twice and won first place both times, many people were optimistic about him.

The stakes on this person this time had already reached hundreds of millions.

"Did you guys find this person to participate, or did he volunteer to join?"

The boss didn't expect Shen Yan to suddenly ask this question. He paused for a moment before replying to Shen Yan: "We sent him an invitation letter, but he could have refused if he wanted to."

Hearing this, Shen Yan nodded.

The reason he asked was just to confirm whether this young man wanted to participate willingly or was forced to participate.

If this young man wanted to participate willingly, then he either liked seeking thrills or was genuinely extremely short of money.

Thinking this, he handed the tablet in his hand to the boss.

"Then I'll bet on him."

After saying that, Mei Jinning had also chosen her person.

After the two selected their people, the boss took the tablet and left the room.

During the preparation period, Mei Jinning made casual conversation with Shen Yan.

"You are quite wealthy now. Logically speaking, you should also enjoy thrilling things, so why are you so uninterested in something as exciting as gambling?"

Hearing the question, Shen Yan retorted to Mei Jinning: "Do rich people have to seek this kind of thrill?"

Mei Jinning replied solemnly: "Although it's not absolute, most people I've met are like this. Because they already have money, power, and status, there are very few things in the world that can cause emotional fluctuations for them."

"Without emotional fluctuations, they naturally find things boring. Since it's boring, they need to find something interesting, so they all love gambling."

Shen Yan did not refute Mei Jinning.

He said flatly: "Perhaps it's because I'm not rich enough yet. When I become a bit richer, maybe I will also start liking anything that can bring me emotional fluctuations, just like you said."

Mei Jinning: "... It's really boring chatting with you."

Shen Yan curled his lips and said nothing.

Time passed second by second.

Soon, the car race began.
