Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The youngest President of Tai Yu Corporation, Qi Lei!
Naturally, Dongfang Rou’er recognized Qi Lei at first glance.
At this moment, Qi Lei was also with his back facing her. He was looking through the doc.u.ments that w.a.n.g Chun had submitted regarding the South River Project.
He was very focused. The dim light that shone in from the corner made his handsome face look even more profound and handsome. His long eyelashes flickered. Looking at him like this, it was naturally very peaceful and somewhat pleasing to the eye.
“h.e.l.lo, President Qi!”
Dongfang Rou’er did not come back to her senses for a long time. She only spoke softly when Qi Lei suddenly turned around with the doc.u.ment in his hand and walked towards the desk beside him.
“Have a seat.”
Qi Lei’s gaze was still on the doc.u.ment in front of him. From the doc.u.ment that w.a.n.g Chun reported, it could be seen that Dongfang Liuyun and the rest had made quite a lot of preparations. All of the data was able to meet their expectations.
However, Dongfang Ren did not hand in the data through Dongfang Gan’s nod. This made him frown. It was higher than the actual data Dongfang Liuyun gave him. It was obvious…
“Alright, thank you, President Qi!”
Dongfang Rou’er smiled politely. She pulled out the chair in front of Qi Lei’s desk elegantly and sat down.
Qi Lei looked up from the doc.u.ment and placed the doc.u.ment on the table in front of him. He leaned against the back of the chair and looked at the smiling face in front of him that did not look like Dongfang Liuyun, the depths of his dark eyes could not help but darken, but there was no change in his expression.
“Dongfang Group’s Manager Rou? I heard that you came to my place many times and insisted on seeing me. May I know what is the matter?”
Qi Lei maintained his usual gentlemanly demeanor and asked calmly.
Dongfang Rou’er smiled sincerely. “How nice of President Qi to remember me, it’s an honor. Actually, it’s a little presumptuous of me to do this, but I still have to do this. I hope that President Qi won’t mind.”
Qi Lei listened and glanced at her. He did not reply. Dongfang Rou’er paused for a moment and took a deep breath before continuing, “President Qi has always been a straightforward person, so I’ll be direct. Actually, I’m here because of the South River Project. I’ve looked for your company’s Vice President w.a.n.g Chun before, but…”
Just as Dongfang Rou’er said this, Qi Lei, who was sipping his tea, suddenly stopped. He raised his hand and interrupted her—
“Regarding the South River Project, I’ve given full authority to Vice President w.a.n.g Chun to handle. I’m not personally in charge of this matter. Manager Rou, I think if the Dongfang Group has any questions about the South River Project, they wouldn’t have asked you, a Deputy Public Relations Manager, to come over to discuss it, right?”
“Right now, the matter of whether Tai Yu Corporation and Dongfang group want to cooperate is still under discussion. Moreover, even if the two companies want to cooperate, does the Dongfang Group want to hand such an important project over to you?”
When Qi Lei said this, he looked at Dongfang Rou’er with some amus.e.m.e.nt.
When Dongfang Rou’er heard this, she was stunned for a moment, but her reaction was quick enough. She quickly replied with some apology, “I’m sorry, President Qi. I didn’t mean anything by it. It’s just that I partic.i.p.ated in the a.n.a.lysis of this project’s data proposal previously. I believe President Qi has seen the proposal before. It was meticulously prepared by us. In order to allow us to have a more perfect cooperation, I dared to look for President Qi today…”
Qi Lei was a little surprised by her calm att.i.tude in the face of danger. After thinking for a moment, Qi Lei reached out to open the folder in front of him and handed a doc.u.ment to Dongfang Rou’er—
“Manager Rou, are you referring to this proposal?”
Dongfang Rou’er quickly took it. She picked it up, flipped through it, and then nodded. “Yes, it’s this doc.u.ment, President Qi…”
“If Dongfang Group really can only get me a proposal of this level, the cooperation will naturally be impossible. Manager Rou, you’re a smart person. You know what I’m talking about. I, Qi Lei, am a businessman. Businessmen are all about win-win. When Tai Yu Corporation decide on whether to cooperate with the Dongfang Group, we have already done a thorough investigation of your background. To be honest, your att.i.tude has disappointed me. However, your company’s Vice President Yi is somewhat sincere, but now I have some doubts. If this project is handed over to the Dongfang Group, who from your company will be in charge of this project?”
Qi Lei said with a straight face, and his brows subconsciously furrowed.
Vice President Yi?
Second Uncle Dongfang Yi?
A cold light flashed across Dongfang Rou’er’s eyes, and her willow-like brows furrowed—
She had always known that her father, Dongfang Ren, and Dongfang Yi were secretly at odds with each other on this project. Neither side was willing to submit to the other because Second Uncle Dongfang Yi also had a proud son, Dongfang Yu. Speaking of which, Dongfang Yu’s talent was no less than that of her eldest brother, Dongfang Xin.
Dongfang Rou’er thought about it for a moment, and then she had an idea.
She wanted to say something more, but Qi Lei did not give her another chance. He glanced at the clock on the table, and his deep voice sounded a little indifferent. “10 minutes are up. Manager Rou, you can go back now.”
“President Qi, I…”
Without waiting for Dongfang Rou’er to finish, Qi Lei had already pressed the call b.u.t.ton and said to the person on the other end, “Come in and send the guest off for me.”
As soon as he said that, someone came from outside.
It was Bai Xiaowei. Seeing Qi Lei’s indifferent look, she naturally did not dare to say anything. She quickly glanced at Dongfang Rou’er.
Dongfang Rou’er eased up a little before saying, “I’m sorry for being presumptuous today, President Qi. But please believe in my sincerity. I didn’t mean anything else. I just wanted the project to be done better.”
Qi Lei continued to look down at the doc.u.ment as if he had not heard anything.
Dongfang Rou’er could only turn around and walk out of the door awkwardly.
Bai Xiaowei bowed respectfully to Qi lei, then turned around and walked out as well.
Bai Xiaowei followed Qi Lei’s instructions and sent Dongfang Rou’er downstairs.
“Miss Bai, your President Qi…”
Dongfang Rou’er was silent for a long time before she asked tentatively.
“President Qi is like this. Manager Rou, don’t take it to heart. President Qi is also very decisive in handling matters. Previously, when he was on a long business trip, the company’s matters piled up. President Qi has already frozen quite a few managers in the past few days of meetings,” Bai Xiaowei consoled her.
Dongfang Rou’er looked at her gratefully and smiled, “It’s alright. This kind of thing often happens. I’ve always been mentally prepared! How is it? Are you used to the work here? I see that you’re quite capable, I even want to poach you over. When you’re in the mood, come to the Dongfang Group for a visit!”
