were straight like a model's, but unlike a model's bony look, they were tender and delicate, almost taking away one's soul!Jiang Po-lang couldn't control himself and let out a muffled groan, swallowi...Luo Fatty, under the encouragement of Da Shang, wanted to give Asia-East Group, who was planning to enter the j city market, a warning. Although he raised the purchase price of most goods by 0.5%, in business, everything is negotiable. After rounds of discussions, there would naturally be room for maneuver. But Luo Fatty never expected that Yu Xu, the person in charge of Asia-East Group, would directly call him and say they were terminating the talks.

Luo Fatzi immediately panicked. He knew the reputation of the East Asia Group. Although he was considered a local snake in City J, he really needed to consider his own weight if he wanted to suppress this powerful dragon, the East Asia Group. When Yu Xu made it clear that he didn't want to do business with him, Luo Fatzi knew things were bad.

The East Asia Group is a powerful force. If he truly offended such a great benefactor, I'm afraid he won't be able to get away with it.

In a hurry, Luo Fatty brought several of his capable subordinates to Yu Xu's place.

Yu Xu and Rong Ling, who were sitting there, were deep in conversation. When Luo Fatty entered, they only gave him a glance of attention before continuing their discussion, their attitude quite arrogant. Luo Fatty was unhappy, but he didn't dare show it on his face. He put on his usual business smile and walked forward, extending his hand respectfully to Rong Ling.

"Oh, Mr. Rong, you're so busy!"

Rong Ling turned half his body, looked at Luo Fatty, and kept his eyes on him for about three seconds before reaching out to shake his hand. It seemed as if he was deigning to lower himself to Luo Fatty's level. Rong Ling's eyes were cold and distant, with a clear aloofness that made Luo Fatty shiver. He might not care much for Yu Xu, who acted like a little ruffian, but towards Rong Ling, he had to show respect.

"President Rong, look, why did you suddenly express the termination of negotiations here This... is there something we did that made you unhappy"

Rong Ling smiled, but it was a smile that didn't reach his eyes. He glanced at Yu Xu, who understood immediately. He invited Luo Fatty to sit down and chuckled.

"Lao Luo, your price is too high. We've done the calculations here, and it's simply unaffordable. Therefore, we're going to look for other options."

Luo Fatty's face stiffened, and he awkwardly smiled. "This... this price, we can still negotiate! I am familiar with J city and have been in business for decades. You can definitely rest assured about the supply!"

Yu Xu extended his index finger and shook it, full of banter. "No! No! No! Lao Luo, we appreciate your kindness, but we've already secured a supplier for that. Business is business, as they say. If there's an opportunity in the future, let's collaborate again!"

"Damn it! Business over morals!" Luo Fatty's heart sank when he heard this. He had previously heard that the East Asia Group was connected to the underworld. The implication in Yu Xu's words was not something Luo Fatty, a veteran of the business world, could miss! If the deal fell through, he wouldn't have any chance to cooperate with them again in the future. He never imagined Rong Ling would choose to get supplies from other suppliers! Who didn't know, in this city, he was the biggest supplier!

Luo Fatzi instantly regretted it. He shouldn't have been persuaded by that group of old fellows from Dashi. For the sake of old friendships and profits, he fired the first shot, which hurt Yidong, a major client, and also himself.

Fine beads of sweat slid down Lu Panzhi's forehead. Yu Xu's words hung in the air, clearly stating that there was no turning back. Whatever he said now seemed pointless. But if he really left like this, he knew his future path would be anything but smooth!

"Mr. Rong, look at this...this..."

Luo Fatzi turned to seek refuge with Rong Ling.

Feng Ling, however, maintained a low profile and barely interacted with Luo Fatty.

Lao Luo was indeed a sly fox in the business world. As soon as he entered, his mind raced and he remembered the young woman sitting on the sofa. So young and yet present at such an occasion, she must be Lin Meng, the recent sensation who had captured Rong Ling's heart. It was rumored that Rong Ling almost ended his business deal with Gao Changming because of Lin Meng, but in the end, it was Lin Meng who interceded, allowing the business to continue. Lao Luo had heard whispers of this affair.

Thinking of this, Luo Fatty pondered it carefully.

"Mr. Rong, about this supply agreement, we had everything settled, just a few procedures left before signing. I've even prepared the contract here, just waiting to sign it in a few days. Now this... suddenly... this happened... It's really..."

Rong Ling remained silent, while Yu Xu chuckled on the side, seeming to enjoy the spectacle. Compared to Luo Fatty, these two men looked rather like domineering officials oppressing commoners!

Luo Fatzi saw the situation and immediately sighed, full of regret. "This raising price thing is really my blunder! At the time, I didn't know what I was thinking. I just listened to my wife's suggestion... But... it wasn't even in the negotiation stage yet, right If you guys aren't satisfied, we can change it! Mr. Rong, I've been doing business in J city for so many years, if you cooperate with me, you can rest assured. When it comes to the price, if you're not happy, we can still talk at the original price. There's no need to go far and wide to talk to others! I was truly foolish for a moment. You know men, right When they're facing their wives, their ears become soft and they easily get confused... This... this... Hey, Miss Lin!"

Lu Fatzi suddenly turned his gaze to Lin Meng, causing Lin Meng to jump in fright.

"Lin Meng, Miss Lin, as a woman, you probably understand my wife's temperament. My father and I are old friends, and… you… could you please tell me, I am truly sincere about doing business with Ms. Rong!"

Lin Meng suddenly felt embarrassed, she didn't understand how the words had turned towards her. As if speaking and pointing at her, they landed right on her. Under the gaze of several pairs of eyes, she felt extremely uncomfortable, as if sitting on pins and needles.

Luo Fatzi revealed that he was acquainted with Lin Meng's father, asking Lin Meng to plead for him with Rong Ling. But in this situation, how could Lin Meng open his mouth The moment he did, it would be awkward!

Lin Meng bit her lip, sat there, meeting Luo Fatty's expectant eyes, feeling very uncomfortable.

Luo Fatty continued, "I've heard that Miss Lin is not only beautiful but also kind. She's very popular among everyone in the court. I hope Miss Lin could speak up for me. I will certainly never forget this favor!"

Lin Meng's face flushed red, she sat there, looking embarrassed. Perhaps Luo Fatty was sincere in his praise, but hearing these words in her ears made her feel particularly uncomfortable. She knew why she was here and what her status was. Saying that she welcomed being favored only made her feel awkward, as if she were a courtesan being sold in an ancient brothel!

She lowered her head, her slender white hand gripping the edge of the sofa tightly, biting her lip and remaining silent. This silence completely exasperated Luo Fatty, who thought to himself, "How is this woman so clueless" He had forgotten that Lin Meng wasn't the daughter of a wealthy business family; naturally, she couldn't understand the double meanings in his words. She was just an ordinary high school student!

Rong Ling slanted her eyes at Lin Meng. Her jet-black hair, like a waterfall, cascaded down, covering most of her face, revealing a pale complexion with a hint of pink. It was etched with embarrassment; her tiny nose and slightly parted lips with rosy teeth betrayed her discomfort. Her hair obscured her eyes, but one could roughly guess that the pair of black orbs hidden beneath resembled tearful waves, filled with bewilderment. Her gaze shifted from her face to the small hand tightly gripping the edge of the sofa cushion—

Rong Ling narrowed his eyes, slowly sat upright, tapped his thigh with his index finger, and said to Luo Fatty in a loud voice: "Okay, don't make things difficult for her, she doesn't understand anything. I'll just say one thing here, the supply price of most goods has been reduced by 0.5%. If you agree, we'll sign the contract; if you disagree, then our cooperation ends here. I give you a day to consider, that's it, you go back!"

Luo Fatty's heart was filled with both joy and sorrow. He was joyful because there was a chance for further cooperation, but sorrowful because he had tried to steal the egg without breaking the basket, only to end up losing five-thousandths of his profit. Muttering to himself, Luo Fatty stood up and shook hands with Rong Ling and Yu Xu one by one, bidding them farewell.

After the others left, Yu Xu's expression turned strange again. He glanced at Lin Meng, and Yu Xu really felt like he had grown a layer of hair. As brothers with Rong Ling for many years, how could he not understand the role Lin Meng played in this crucial moment If it weren't for Lin Meng, Luo Fatty would have come and gone miserably today. But she was inexplicably involved, and Big Brother changed his mind, giving Luo Fatty a way out. Didn't Big Brother say that Lin Meng was someone he didn't need to know about Then why was Big Brother so concerned about her!
