Just in time, Ethan enters with a maid. She pushed a liquor trolley behind him.
The wooden trolley was racked with all kind of drinks. Scotch, Wine, Champagne, Vodka, Cognac, Tequila, Vintage Beer, Special Whiskey, and a few more.
Lu Jianjun closed the file and got up. He gestures Louis towards the resting lounge attached to the conference room.
Sitting in the lounge, Ethan served Louis the drink of his choice, whiskey on the rocks without a splash of soda. And served Lu Jianjun his usual c.o.c.ktail, the combination of three, powerful bitterness, strong sourness, cogent alcohol not sugary at all. He doesn"t drink usually but occasionally.
Coming back to the topic, Louis said slightly hesitated. "It was nothing secret! I was in a rush."
LuJianjun said patiently, " Then clarify!"
"Sigh~, I know, you"re too smart for your profession. Actually, I came for a hunt." said Louis with an expression regarding as "you know".
Came for a hunt?
Of course, real businessmen don"t disclose his business deals details but they talk in deciphered words. Which always has a hidden meaning to be understood.
And Lu Jianjun is an extraordinary businessman.
Slowly swirling the gla.s.s in his hand, Lu Jianjun said, "For what?"
Louis took a slow sip before saying, "Since you rejected our collaboration. I have to look for another investor. And it scheduled spontaneously." he didn"t mark any indifference in Lu Jianjun"s expression. " I a.s.sure you that I didn"t break any of your protocols."
His statement was served by a cold silence.
Loius knew this explanation won"t satisfy the distinctive Lu Jianjun. He had to make him believe or provide a reasonable answer to his suspicious actions. Because if Lu Jianjun found any nooks he"ll be finished. He can"t afford Lu Jianjun delving deep into this matter.
He knows how much capable man is Lu Jianjun.
Besides, the reason Lu Jianjun didn"t invest in the deal because of the surrounding controversies at an international level. Being a sharp and business-minded man, Lu Jianjun knows very well the value of profit and loss. He was certain to make the profit out of any deal he signed but this deal can finish or make Louis"s dropping business.
And if Lu Corporation became an investor in the deal then to reach the estimated profit Lu Jianjun will be forced to take the extreme majors and it will be just an overhead task.
Useless and extra work!
Moreover, with the same amount of investment, he can make a double profit by investing in YJL Corporation. The world"s youngest and rapidly growing Empire.
This way he can hit two targets, first double profit and increase the annual revenue and the allies to stand against the strongest collaboration of top two enterprises: Warren Corp. and Zhang Corporation.
Lu Jianjun also knew Louis"s desperation to close his controversial deal but he was slightly interested in this newly arrived investor in the market, with whom Louis made the deal and on what terms.
With a serious expression, Louis said, "For a month, I have been waiting for my target to take the bait. Unlike you, an opportunist, I had to wait for an opportunity. Luckily, we succeeded. It wasn"t easy but you know how we did that," He chuckled." A Love trap. haha...It"s funny, right! Let me tell you, what"s funnier! An ingenious person became foolish in love and their mind indiscriminately follows the heart. And one came running towards death."
Lu Jianjun"s expression darkened.
Louis corrected. "Don"t worry, it has nothing to do with you or your business. And No Harm to any of your people."
Lu Jianjun said calmly, "You know the consequences if I ever find any blunder. You"ll be the one rus.h.i.+ng to the grave."
Louis knew it was Lu Jianjun"s calming warning before the storm.
Louis knows it very well. The game he"s playing is deadly and dangerous. One mistake and he"ll be dragged into dust. From both sides. But he rests a.s.sured knowing that the potential danger was already taken down. Because this time stakes were too high for a few peoples.
And the reason he came to visit Lu Jianjun, cause if he didn"t personally come to simplify the confidential visit then Lu Jianjun might know the error. He was testing the depth of the ocean. Cause Lu Jianjun is completely an unpredictable man to mess with. He can be the darkest among the dark or just being straightforward.
To be clear, Lu Jianjun is equally dangerous! And What he did five years ago was enough to know his potential which doesn"t leave a room for any doubt.
Emptying his gla.s.s, Louis said, " We have to satisfy each and every demand of the investor. In our world n.o.body is pure. Just methods are different."
In a monotone, Lu Jianjun said positively, "Don"t offend me, I don"t use families to attack or to do business."
Louis laughed at himself for a.s.sessing him wrongly, "No offence, boss. We"re not as good as you. Only you can do justice, I should really learn from you. How to do lewd work fairly!"
"It not about being good it"s all about knowing what"s right or wrong!" Lu Jianjun replies coolly.
Sustaining the protocols, Lu Jianjun and Louis talked business.
Meanwhile, inside the H-room, Li Na had finished the first session of her somatic therapy.
It"s a form of psychotherapy, combined with talk and mind-body exercise in a holistic approach to treating PTSD attack and mental and physical health issue.
Addition to that, Li Na asked about other therapies then this boring talk session.
Something like fun an Art Therapy, Behavioural therapy, Cognitive or self-guided therapy.
Sometimes she"s is a smooth talker but not always or with every new person in her life. It"s her instinctive response to tease, taunt, joke, like, insult or flirt with the other person.
And she"s definitely not liking this, that the other person trying to map her mental strength on the basis of an awkward and depressing health issue related history.
She agreed!
She has a weak body and nervous system but she"s absolutely fine intellectually. They don"t need to tell her why she needs or sought the therapy. How does she feel and should try to prepare herself to open up?
"Fine! I understand. The species called humans need to share their emotions with others or at least with a particular someone and therapy help with that, but it"s for those who don"t know how to express feelings or confused souls, who exactly don"t know what they are feeling."
Li Na can swear that she clearly knows what she wants.
She wants to take her repayment, go back to her family and marry Zhang Han.
Obviously, she also knows what she feels.
She felt an eagerness to stand firmly on her legs, impatient for kicking Lu Jun-hui"s a.s.s and longing for a last and the only chance to flirt with Lu Jianjun.
No offence but it"s very much needed just to satisfy her womanly ego. If she can trap him then she won"t flirt with any human on this planet. Because she was the one who initiated the flirting and b.l.o.o.d.y h.e.l.l she"ll end it with him.
Zhang Han Promise! It will be just sweet talk nothing else. No seduction, no kissing or no touching.
Can she swear? Li Na shook her head and said, "Yes,"
Positive symptoms, She really needs therapy.
Because she doubts! Is she be able to handle him?
