Chapter 343: The World Is About to Change
The woman in front of him was cold and glamorous, yet stunningly beautiful.
In terms of looks, she was by no means inferior to Cui Ziqing; she was an absolute goddess of high beauty.
"A beauty has extended an invitation, how could I refuse? Especially when she is such a stunning woman." Zheng Qian smiled and nodded.
"Sister..." Young Master Su Zhenghe said timidly, not daring to lift his head.
"Shut up." She glanced at Young Master Su Zhenghe coldly. "Young Master Zheng, this way."
Cui Ziqing felt a tremendous sense of threat from her. It wasn't a threat of status, position, or wealth, but simply from a woman's perspective, such a stunning beauty was something an ordinary man absolutely could not resist.
More importantly, she knew who this woman was.
If one were to truly measure the power she could wield, even Jiang Yanran, who could call for wind and rain in Jiangnan, paled in comparison to her—it was a gap of more than just a level or two.
After entering the private room, several bodyguards lined up, watching Zheng Qian with cold, stern faces.
Zheng Qian, however, seemed to feel no pressure at all as he leaned back on the sofa, holding Cui Ziqing in his arms.
He leisurely lit a cigarette, waiting for her to speak first.
"Young Master Zheng, what happened today was my brother's fault."
"Come here and apologize to Young Master Zheng."
"Hold on!"
Before Young Master Su Zhenghe could fidget his way over, Zheng Qian waved his hand, glancing calmly at the beautiful woman before him. "If I'm not mistaken, you must be Su Yuanshuang, right? I spent over ten million, and an apology is all it takes to settle this?"
Su Yuanshuang's expression tightened, her eyes narrowing as if she were thinking about something.
"Then what do you want?"
"Channels."
Zheng Qian flicked the ash from his cigarette and said with a smile, "As the saying goes, 'It is impolite not to reciprocate.' Your subordinates ruined my cocktail party, leaving Xunnidi, which was supposed to soar to the skies, with no response. These losses far exceed ten million."
"And if I don't agree?" Su Yuanshuang lowered her eyelids.
"Then I won't force you. There are two options. First, let this kid come out with me, continue to compete, and keep throwing money. Second, let him admit defeat, and I'll take him outside and slap him. It's that simple."
Zheng Qian took a deep drag of his cigarette, looking at Young Master Su Zhenghe with a half-smile.
Hearing this, Su Yuanshuang's gaze became even more solemn.
She stared coldly at Zheng Qian. "Although I know you have a lot of power and threw around billions in Jiangnan, looking at the entire Kyushu, there are very few people who can casually throw away billions in cash. Your capital pool must be bottoming out by now, right?"
"Even if it's just a dispute of pride, do you think you can compare with us, the Su Family? This is Subei City, not Jiangnan."
Zheng Qian laughed.
He really wanted to tell her that she knew absolutely nothing about his system.
"Don't try to threaten me; I don't buy that. And I am certain that you absolutely would not dare to make a move against me. Because you don't know my background, but I know yours very well."
"In a little while, it will be the day for the Songshang Club to recruit new members, and your Su Family is eager to expand its volume."
"You haven't been able to get in for several times in a row; you must be very anxious, right? If I am determined to go against you, do you believe that even if I can't destroy the Su Family, I can guarantee that you will never have a chance to enter the three major clubs in your lifetime?"
Facing Su Yuanshuang, Zheng Qian spoke eloquently.
In fact, what he said was not wrong. The money he spent in Jiangnan was simply too aggressive, to the point that many people didn't know whether he truly possessed a bottomless capital pool or if he was just a frontman for some big figure.
This was also the reason why Su Yuanshuang was wary of him.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have even needed to show up herself just now; she would have just sent people to throw him out.
"The matter of the channels is not something I can decide alone." Su Yuanshuang's tone softened slightly.
"Of course, your father, the head of the Su Family, still rules The Group. And his eldest legitimate son, Su Zhengting, is the senior president; his words should carry more weight, and he can make decisions himself."
"Then find a time for him to talk to me... Oh no, for him to talk to my woman. After all, she is currently the president of our Xunnidi brand company, so our status is relatively equal."
Zheng Qian nodded slightly, gaining the upper hand in just a few words.
This made Young Master Su Zhenghe gnash his teeth in frustration.
The implication of his words was that his status was equal to their father's, and if they wanted to talk, they weren't qualified to talk to him directly.
It also implied that Su Yuanshuang should make a decision; if they didn't back down and talk clearly today, it wouldn't be easy to see him again in the future.
"I understand what you mean."
After a long while, Su Yuanshuang finally spoke, "Since there is something to talk about, I will convey your meaning to my father and brother and let them decide. But before that, I want to ask you, what is the price you are offering?"
Zheng Qian took a deep drag of his cigarette and held up three fingers.
"A 70-30 split. I can make you the highest-level partner of the JZH channel. How about that?"
There was no need to ask to know what Zheng Qian meant by a 70-30 split.
It must mean he would take 70 percent, and the Su Family would take 30 percent.
This made Su Yuanshuang's expression even colder.
In her view, such a request was simply outrageous, and she couldn't help but clench her delicate hands.
"Are you serious?"
"Of course, you can convey my words exactly as they are."
To Su Yuanshuang, this was a clause that bordered on an insult; it was simply slapping the Su Family in the face. She didn't even need to think about it to know there must be many additional terms.
For example, having to ship a certain amount to enjoy discount treatment.
If the amount was not met, they might even charge a significant premium fee.
"Alright, things have reached this point, I don't think there's any need to stay any longer. Let's part ways here."
Zheng Qian stubbed out his cigarette and took Cui Ziqing's hand, preparing to leave.
When passing by Young Master Su Zhenghe, he narrowed his eyes and stared fixedly at the other man.
He didn't say a word, yet it brought tremendous pressure to the latter. Cold sweat streamed down his back, and for a moment, he even wanted to muster the courage to fight Zheng Qian. This was Subei, after all; what would happen even if he killed him?
He truly didn't understand why his sister had to be so polite to him.
If Zheng Qian dared to touch Young Master Su Zhenghe, the latter had even made up his mind to keep Zheng Qian here forever.
Several bodyguards were also on high alert.
No matter what, Young Master Su Zhenghe was their young master.
If he were really slapped in the face, even if...
"Kid, don't scheme back and forth in your heart; you're still too naive. Your sister called us into the private room to talk; did you really think she wanted to discuss cooperation? Heh, she was just afraid that there were too many people outside, and if she really beat you up, you would lose face."
Zheng Qian lightly patted his face, then turned to look at Su Yuanshuang. "Let's just leave today's matter at that. But remember, my ten million wasn't spent for nothing; the Su Family owes me a favor."
"This face is something I'm giving you."
With those words, Zheng Qian pushed the door open and walked out.
Watching the sky gradually deepen, he sighed sincerely:
"The weather is about to change."
