Chapter 25: Buying a Car (1/2)
“This doesn’t seem appropriate, does it? Anyway it’s just 100 million, why would I break a promise just for that sum of money? You should know that I honor my reputation very well. It’s impossible for me to break a promise just for a tiny amount of money, isn’t it?” Cheng Yu said to Yang Ruoxue as he thought, “Since you want to be so calculative with me, I shall not give you any face.”
After Yang Ruoxue heard what Cheng Yu said, her face twitched as she thought, “Since when has this man cared about his reputation?”
She originally wanted to persuade him to sign the contract while giving him the 100 million, but who would have thought he suddenly deemed it as too little. Before that, who was the one that did not even have enough money to pay for the cab fare? He’s so shameless!
“How much do you want then?” Yang Ruoxue clenched her teeth and asked.
“I do not wish to make things difficult for you, that’s why I am working with another partner. Since swindling other people’s money is better than swindling the money of someone you know,” said Cheng Yu while acting as if he was actually being considerate of her.
“I offer you 120 million and we shall sign the contract now! If you don’t comply, don’t even think about stepping out of this office.” Yang Ruoxue said furiously.
“What?! Don’t tell me, you wish to make me sign the contract forcefully?! Let me tell you, I will never yield to you!” Cheng Yu stepped back two steps and yelled furiously.
Yang Ruoxue ignored him and dialed a number over the phone. Immediately, Lan Zishan knocked on the door before coming in and asked, “What’s the matter, Director Yang?”
“Go and prepare a contract that is similar to the Rejuvenation Pill. After that, head over to the Finance Department and get me a 120 million dollar check.”
“Director Yang, we do not have so much cash right now. Currently, most of our money has already been spent on promoting the Rejuvenation Pill and Longevity Pill,” Lan Zishan said as she looked towards the young man standing at the side as she started to question whether Director Yang was discussing another business proposal with him. Judging from the way Director Yang was acting, she started to think that the Rejuvenation Pill also originated from him.
“How much can be taken out then?” Yang Ruoxue frowned and asked.
“The most we can withdraw is only 50 million. Anymore than that will cause the company to face difficulty in continuing its daily operation,” Lan Zishan thought before replying.
“You heard it, right? Currently I can give you 50 million, but you still have to sign the contract with me now and the profits distribution shall remain the same as the previous contract.”
After Lan Zishan heard what Yang Ruoxue said, she was astonished. She did not expect that the shameless boy would be discussing a business proposal with Director Yang. Previously, she had tried both the Rejuvenation Pill and Longevity Pill and witnessed the pills’ effects. She knew that once the two pills go on to the market, it would generate huge profits for the company. Furthermore, the contract was written by her personally. She knew that the profits would be divided in half. She did not expect that the shameless boy who was unable to pay his cab fare previously was going to be so filthy rich.
When Lan Zishan was still staring at the boy curiously, Cheng Yu said, “Pass me 10 million first. As for the rest, we will talk about it in the future.”
After the cab fare incident, he realized that not having a car was truly bothersome. Originally, he was planning to borrow some money from Yang Ruoxue to get a car after checking on the progress of the pill. However, who knew that this girl did not bother to give him any face in regards to money. Without a choice, he could only use some ruthless means to acquire it.
Yang Ruoxue stared straight at Cheng Yu after Lan Zishan went out to handle the matter.
“Why are you looking at me like that? Although I know that I am very charismatic, I can see from your eyes that you are longing for me. This made me feel fear faintly. I shall let you know that I am not a casual person when it comes to this kind of matter!”
“Have you been deceiving me from the start?!” Yang Ruoxue stared at Cheng Yu and asked.
“What do you mean? When have I deceived you?” Cheng Yu said unwillingly.
“Previously when you said that you are going to work with Huasheng Pharmaceutical, it’s a lie, right? You did it because I didn’t give you any money! Am I right?!” Yang Ruoxue realized something was amiss the moment she heard that Cheng Yu only wished to get 10 million. She felt that Cheng Yu obviously did not care about this sum of money and he would never cooperate with someone else just because of money.
“How is that possible? You think that my pills would not attract another company’s attention? Let me tell you, with just these two pills, any one of them is extremely valuable.” Only someone stupid would acknowledge their lies, Cheng Yu thought. This woman was someone who would destroy the bridge after crossing the river. Once he admitted that he had deceived her, he would never be able to get his 10 million dollars.
Although she wished to deny it, but it was a fact. The moment any of the three pills entered the market, who knows what the price it would fetch. Furthermore, who knew what kind of secrets this boy was concealing from others.
“Since you didn’t lie to me, I shall not delve into this matter anymore. In the future, if you have any new products, you have to prioritize working together with me first. You are not allowed to work with anyone else.”
“Ok. I shall agree with you,” Cheng Yu agreed. In fact, Cheng Yu had never thought of working with anyone else other than Yang Ruoxue.
Cheng Yu took the 10 million dollar bank card and walked out of the building. He was happy as he was finally rich.
