"Everything should be done meticulously without any mistakes. Are you sure you can handle such a labor - intensive job, Vice President Bo?" Yan Kun raised his eyebrows and retorted.
Instantly, he regained the initiative.
Not wanting to be outdone, Bo Siming laughed and said, "You're talking about the bottom - level employees, right? For someone of my standing, shouldn't I be given a position directly? Everyone, tell me, am I right?"
The others who were named all forced awkward smiles, sweating.
In this kind of official situation, whoever took a stand first would be the first to be criticized.
Apart from remaining neutral, taking either side would lead to trouble.
Thankfully, the assistant was smart and quickly smoothed things over on behalf of everyone.
"Whether it's a bottom - level employee or any of the positions here, they're all the result of our hard work! Representative Yan, I wonder if you're satisfied with the results of your inspection tonight?"
Yan Kun didn't intend to beat around the bush with Bo Siming and spoke bluntly.
"I'm going to buy it."
Suddenly, complete silence fell over the place.
"You're going to buy it? This building?" Bo Siming asked in confusion.
"Is there a problem?"
"… What do you plan to use it for?"
Yan Kun smiled, calm and confident. "This is our company's business. We don't need to explain our plans to you, do we?"
Bo Siming reluctantly agreed. "How much are you willing to pay?"
Such a straightforward offer made the others present panic.
The assistant also opened the contract and carefully read every clause. There was no mention that only the president could sign, nor was there any indication that the company's senior management couldn't decide on industrial transactions.
"80 million." After Yan Kun said this, it seemed as easy as saying eight yuan. He was extremely relaxed and confident.
This was the attitude of a powerful company—direct and efficient.
When Bo Siming heard this amount, his eyes sparkled. The small villas under his name couldn't even sell for 80 million, but this dilapidated commercial building could fetch such a high price.
It was like dealing with a money - scattering philanthropist!
"Bring me the contract."
After flipping through it and making sure there were no concerns, he was satisfied.
"Don't worry. I'll draw up the contract tomorrow and deliver it to your company in person. I hope we can have such cooperation opportunities in the future!"
Yan Kun smiled. "There's no need to go to all that trouble to come to the company. I'll email you the address. That's it."
With that, he put on his jazz hat and slowly walked away.
"Vice President, isn't it a bit too hasty for you to make this decision on your own?"
"Yes, we still don't know what they plan to do with this building."
Bo Siming sneered at them. "Do you know why you're still in your current positions?"
They shook their heads blankly.
"A brain is a good thing, but it's a pity you don't have one."
With that, he happily took the elevator to the top floor.
The night view from the top floor was spectacular. The streets below were bustling with traffic, and the gentle breeze caressed his face like silk, making him feel even better.
"Ah, if it weren't for the right price and the right business partner, I'd really be reluctant to sell this building."
"But you still sold it," the assistant interjected behind him.
"You don't understand anything!"
Bo Siming pointed at the Bo Group not far away. "Use your thick head and think. If A Hairui sets up a branch in such a prime location, whose credit will it be? Mine!"
"By then, cooperation will be convenient, and our relationship will be harmonious. Maybe I can even make friends with the company's boss. Who came up with such a brilliant plan? Me too!" He laughed excitedly.
"You're so thoughtful, Vice President!"
"Humph, I'm just a vice - president, and I can make such a win - win deal. What can Bo Jingyu do in the future? He'll just sit in the office reading newspapers and drinking coffee, and then go home to take care of the kids after work."
Bo Siming squinted his eyes. "What qualifications does he have to be the president?"
Hearing these words, the assistant felt that there was hope for his future.
"Vice President, the future of the Bo Group depends on you!"
Bo Siming could tell it was flattery, but at this moment, he didn't mind at all. Instead, he enjoyed it.
"The deal with A Hairui is done. Do you have any other business to attend to? If not, it's time to go and try on clothes."
Only then did Bo Siming remember. He stubbed out his cigarette and walked away.
"How many sets were originally ordered?"
The assistant looked at the order ticket on his phone.
"Five sets in total. Three are in black - gray, and there are still brown and dark - green ones left."
"I'll take the dark - green one. It shows my charisma."
Bo Siming held his chin high, looking self - important, with his hands in his pockets.
As the sun rose in the early morning, everyone's focus was on the same thing—the engagement ceremony of the second young master of the Bo Group and the fifth young lady of Juan Yi Clothing.
The venue was set at the Qiuling Hotel under the Su Entertainment Group.
At the grand and imposing entrance, the most precious golden carpets were laid out, and even the tiles on the steps had been renovated.
Li Xiaoru sat in front of the dressing table with a gloomy expression.
"What's wrong? It's your engagement day today. Why don't you look happy at all?" Li Rui walked in in a formal suit and asked.
"I just think this whole thing might be a bit hasty?"
She looked up worriedly. "Grandpa is still lying in the hospital, but we're holding this grand ceremony. It seems a bit..."
Li Rui rolled his eyes. "This was something we decided together before Grandpa fell into a coma. Why are you still so hesitant?"
"Do you not like the second young master?"
"No, that's not it," Li Xiaoru sighed, looking conflicted.
"Then why are you worrying so much? Just calm down. The rest of the things will be taken care of by me and your brothers. There won't be any problems."
Actually, what she was really worried about wasn't the impact on the company's image, but whether she really wanted to regard the second young master as her fiancé and even her future husband.
Bo Jingyu had someone in his heart, someone he loved deeply.
Li Xiaoru wasn't sure if she could take on the task of defeating the woman who occupied his heart, nor was she sure if she had the motivation and determination to persevere. This was too difficult for her.
She didn't even find getting a doctorate degree this difficult.
Knock, knock.
"Come in."
Su Minghan walked in with a gorgeous bouquet of flowers.
"Manager Li, I was really busy yesterday. I just saw your message when I got back to the company today. I'd like to wish you a happy engagement in advance."
"Wow, you came here in person!"
Li Rui's face turned red with excitement. He almost choked.
It was such an honor to have the vice - president of the third - largest entertainment company in Yancheng come to the hotel in person to send flowers!
He could even imagine the scene of future cooperation with Su Minghan. Just thinking about it made him laugh excitedly.
"Thank you, President Su. Your presence really makes my father and me feel honored. We'll definitely visit you after the ceremony!"
Li Xiaoru stepped forward, bowed, and thanked him.
