28: Men are all pigs!
“General Manager Jiang… regarding the planned investment?”
Perking up, Leng Qingqiu pursed her red lips, her pearly teeth lightly biting, and her beautiful eyes looked at Jiang Che, who was sitting opposite her, asking tentatively.
Since Jiang Che was willing to let her come, it meant that the investment matter was still entirely negotiable, and the outcome wasn't too bad.
Despite this, Leng Qingqiu's heart was still somewhat unsettled and extremely anxious.
“Shouldn't President Leng first show some sincerity?”
Jiang Che's expression was playful, looking at Leng Qingqiu with a half-smile.
Now that the initiative in the negotiation was in his hands, Jiang Che was naturally not in a hurry.
When they were at Yuuexin Restaurant last time, Jiang Che had given Leng Qingqiu a very obvious hint, and he didn't think this cold and stunning President would fail to understand his implied meaning.
“Of course…”
Hearing Jiang Che say this, Leng Qingqiu felt a slight sense of relief.
She directly took out the pre-prepared contract and handed it to Jiang Che, speaking softly.
“To express my apologies to you, General Manager Jiang, if you are willing to continue investing in Lanzi Group, I am willing to offer 20% of the shares.”
Although she appeared calm and composed on the surface, Leng Qingqiu's heart was bleeding and aching with pain at this moment.
Given the previous unpleasantness, Leng Qingqiu understood that if she wanted to continue to secure Jiang Che's investment, she had to give up some benefits.
Thinking of this, Leng Qingqiu was full of frustration, and her hatred for that scoundrel Xiao Chen increased by a few points.
If that guy hadn't suddenly jumped out and disrupted things last time, why would she be in such a passive situation?
Leng Qingqiu personally held 67% of the shares in Lanzi Group, giving her absolute control.
It could be said that Lanzi Group was her personal domain, and all matters, big and small, were decided by her alone.
If it weren't for a last resort, Leng Qingqiu naturally wouldn't want to sell her shares like this.
Although selling 20% of the shares to Jiang Che would still leave her as the largest shareholder with absolute say, her actions would be constrained everywhere.
At that time, if she wanted to make any major decisions, she would have to consult with Jiang Che, the second shareholder, on everything.
As for the remaining 33% of Lanzi Group's shares, they were held by the various elders on the board of directors, but the proportion was very low, unable to cause any significant stir, so Leng Qingqiu naturally didn't care much about them.
“I can sign this contract, but President Leng also needs to agree to a small request of mine.”
After reviewing the contract and confirming there were no pitfalls, Jiang Che spoke.
“What request?”
“General Manager Jiang, please speak freely. As long as Qingqiu can do it, I will not shirk.”
Seeing Jiang Che agree, Leng Qingqiu's heart lit up with joy, the corners of her lips slightly curved upwards, her pretty face outlining a beautiful smile, and her beautiful eyes blinked, sparkling with curiosity.
“It's very simple. As long as President Leng agrees to be my woman, I will agree to finance Lanzi Group, how about it?”
Jiang Che spoke eloquently, completely revealing his fangs.
Lanzi Group was now completely at its wit's end, and he was Leng Qingqiu's only salvation at the moment.
With such a great opportunity before him, Jiang Che naturally wouldn't miss it easily.
As for whether doing so was a bit like taking advantage of someone's misfortune or capitalizing on their vulnerability?
After learning of his identity as a major villain, Jiang Che had long since abandoned so-called morality, and naturally didn't feel the slightest impropriety.
If one is a villain, what morality is there to speak of?
To conquer different women, different methods are required.
Facing an extremely ambitious and domineering President like Leng Qingqiu, he had to appear even more assertive than her.
Ordinary courtship methods simply wouldn't work for Leng Qingqiu.
After graduating from university, she started from scratch in a few years and created a group with a market value of tens of billions.
Over the years, what kind of people had Leng Qingqiu not seen?
To control such a cold and stunning President, some unconventional methods were necessary.
He wouldn't be like those other sycophantic rich second-generation heirs who pursued Leng Qingqiu relentlessly.
“What?”
“General Manager Jiang… are you sure you're not joking with me?”
Hearing this, the smile on Leng Qingqiu's face abruptly stopped, her eyes widened, and her expression changed from astonishment to anger.
The exquisite curves of her chest began to rise and fall, indicating her inner turmoil.
She had previously felt quite a bit of goodwill towards Jiang Che, thinking he was a gentle and refined gentleman.
Now, this was only their second meeting, and he was already dropping the act?
Indeed, all crows are black, and all men are scoundrels!
Leng Qingqiu already had a natural good impression of Jiang Che in her heart; if he had pursued her using normal means, she might not have been unwilling to try dating him.
But Jiang Che chose to take advantage of her misfortune, using such a despicable method to coerce her. How could she not be angry?
“Of course not, I am very serious.”
Jiang Che shook his head, his expression earnest.
“In that case, there's no need to discuss the investment!”
Leng Qingqiu glared at Jiang Che in annoyance, stood up directly from her seat, moved her beautiful legs clad in black stockings, and made to turn and leave.
Jiang Che remained unhurried, picked up his coffee, took a light sip, and spoke calmly, with a hint of playfulness.
“President Leng, if you leave this office today, Lanzi Group will truly be finished tomorrow.”
“If I spread the word, President Leng, do you think anyone in the entire Linjiang City would dare to finance you?”
Leng Qingqiu's departing steps halted directly, and she reluctantly sat back down, her heart filled with extreme frustration.
She naturally understood that what Jiang Che said was true, and he indeed had the capital to instantly turn her group to dust.
Neither Lingxiao Capital nor Xingqiong Group were entities she, Leng Qingqiu, could provoke.
Before a top dignitary like Jiang Che, even if she was a dignified President of a multi-billion company, she had to lower her proud head.
[Leng Qingqiu is extremely frustrated, emotional value +999…]
[Leng Qingqiu thinks you are not a good person, emotional value +2233…]
At this moment, Leng Qingqiu felt like crying without tears, even regretting agreeing to negotiate with Lingxiao Capital in the first place.
It was all because Jiang Che had hidden himself too well.
Who would have thought that this First Young Master, renowned throughout Linjiang for his good reputation, would have such a face in private?
“What, President Leng, are you willing to sit down and have a good talk with me now?”
Seeing Leng Qingqiu's frustrated and angry expression, Jiang Che found it very amusing.
A beauty's slight anger, seemingly annoyed and resentful, was full of charm.
Even when angry, she appeared so beautiful and moving; she truly lived up to her reputation as the famous cold and stunning President.
“You, have you been eyeing me for a long time?”
Leng Qingqiu looked at Jiang Che with shame and anger, speaking through gritted teeth. Seeing Jiang Che's playful expression, she wished she could punch him twice!
He clearly possessed such outstanding looks and temperament, so why were his actions so despicable?
