Ouyang Duo was in a state of disbelief when he received his daughter’s call.
“Did you mishear something? Are you saying that Nan Chen wants to collaborate with us?”
The excitement in Ouyang Qing’s voice barely concealable, so she squealed, “Of course I didn’t mishear anything!
Nan Chen said so himself!”
“Is he trying to trick you?” Ouyang Duo was still skeptical.
“Probably not, right? Nan Chen is a man of power, so he probably wouldn’t waste his time on a woman like me.”
Ouyang Qing’s confidence started to waver.
Ouyang Duo thought that her daughter made sense. She’s right. A man of Nan Chen’s status probably wouldn’t
make up something to trick a young girl like her. That’s not how he operates.
“Alright. I’ll go to his company now.” Ouyang Duo started to get excited as well.
“Dad, things are still not confirmed yet, so you should keep a low profile. Don’t bring too many people along with
you,” Ouyang Qing reminded.
“Don’t worry. I’ll lay low. Only my chauffeur and I will show up.”
“Alright. Take care. Don’t be rude to Nan Chen and anger him again.”
“I know. After all, he’s the man of your dreams, right?”
“Stop teasing me,” Ouyang Qing said coyly.
“Let me remind you again that you need to have a good relationship with the two children. That’s the best way to
get close to Nan Chen.”
“I understand, Dad.”
After the phone call, Ouyang Duo changed his clothes and headed to the Nanshi Corporation Headquarters.
Nan Chen left for two days, so he had a lot to handle.
That was why Ouyang Duo had to wait a few hours for him in the waiting room.
Ouyang Duo was a senior figure in the business industry as he was the Chairman of the Sunshine Corporation, yet
he still needed to wait for someone younger than him - Nan Chen.
Usually, Ouyang Duo only agreed to meet people who placed a reservation, but now he didn’t have that luxury
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtanymore.
While waiting, Ouyang Duo wanted to storm off in rage a few times. However, he stopped himself once he
reminded himself that this was an opportunity bestowed to him by Nan Chen.
He knew that he had to be patient, so he forced himself to calm down.
Still, Nan Chen hadn’t shown up after an hour.
At that point of time, Ouyang Duo needed to take a leak because he drank several cups of coffee during his wait.
When he came back, he bumped into Nan Chen.
To his surprise, that guy was chatting with an employee in the corridor! Here I was, waiting stupidly for him!
Upon that sight, Ouyang Duo bubbled in rage again. That brat actually finished his meeting earlier, and yet, he
didn’t come to see me?
Is he toying with me? This is outrageous!
“Nan Chen, did you ask me to come here just to drink your company’s horrible coffee in the waiting room?” Ouyang
Duo bellowed.
“Oh, you were waiting for me! Why didn’t anyone inform me? My meeting ended long ago. Those people really
deserve to be punished; they’re shirking their work! I’m so sorry, Mr. Ouyang. Let’s talk in my office. Hey! Prepare a
large cup of coffee for Mr. Ouyang!”
Ouyang Duo was even more livid now. More coffee? Is he trying to drive me insane?
“Wait a minute. I need to head to the restroom.” Ouyang Duo had an embarrassed expression.
“Bring Mr. Ouyang to the restroom!” Nan Chen instructed.
“Alright.”
As Ouyang Duo was leaving, a cold smirk appeared on Nan Chen’s face.
How dare someone sabotages the Nan family and tries to portray themselves as the savior?
I need to make him pay for his actions.
An eye for an eye. I will have him know that he shouldn’t mess with the Nan family.
Not long after Nan Chen settled down in his office, Ouyang Duo arrived.
“Mr. Ouyang, please have a cup of coffee.”
Ouyang Duo hastily waved his hands. “No thanks! I’ve had too much! Chen, just cut to the chase. I have been
waiting for too long.”
“Mr. Ouyang, it seems like you’re a bit forgetful. Didn’t we already have a negotiation yesterday?” Nan Chen raised
one of his eyebrows.
“We did, but didn’t you... weren’t you...”
“What are you trying to say?” Nan Chen asked.
“Nothing. I just heard that your project was resumed, so congratulations, Chen.”
Ouyang Duo was visibly embarrassed when he said that.
“You must be very well-connected, Mr. Ouyang; you found out about that so soon.” Nan Chen took a small sip of
coffee.
“Chen, why did you keep that a secret? Did you ask me to come here just to ridicule me?” Ouyang Duo muttered in
displeasure.
“Mr. Ouyang, that’s really not it. I invited you here so that we can have some negotiations. I’m not the kind of
person who would go out of my way to ridicule someone anyway.”
“But your project has already been resumed, so you don’t need us anymore. Why should we even carry out
negotiations?”
“I took a look at one piece of land that the Sunshine Corporation owns and realized that it is quite valuable to us.
The Nanshi Corporation can use it as a construction site.”
“What do you mean?”
“Literally what it means. We want to collaborate with Sunshine Corporation.”
“How?” Ouyang Duo asked agitatedly.
“We’ll develop the land and split the profits eighty-twenty.”
“Does that mean you’ll get eighty percent of the profit while we’ll get twenty percent?”
“Of course. Don’t tell me you expect half of the profit from offering a barren piece of land?” Nan Chen uttered
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcoldly.
“No can do! We carried out all the legal proceedings for that piece of land, so why should we split the profits eighty-
twenty?” Ouyang Duo was livid.
“Even though the proceedings seem complete, there are still some discrepancies. If a thorough investigation is
carried out, a lot of people in Vietnam will be indicted. If that happens, that piece of land will truly become a
worthless piece of barren land.”
“Nonsense!” Ouyang Duo was so agitated that he stood up.
“Calm down, Mr. Ouyang. You’re not young anymore, so you shouldn’t get angry. I didn’t come up with this; the vice
president did. Even I don’t know if it’s true or not. However, if Sunshine Corporation agrees to collaborate with us
and allow Nanshi Corporation to develop the land, the vice president agrees to not launch the investigation.”
After a brief pause, Nan Chen lowered his voice and continued, “At the same time, he will turn a blind eye to Mr.
Huang’s errors. I think you shouldn’t make this decision yourself, so you should discuss it with Mr. Huang. After all, it
wasn’t easy for Mr. Huang to reach his current position, so I’m sure that he will be livid if you ruin his career. If that
happens, you’ll lose the only pillar of support you have in Vietnam, and that piece of land will become worthless
anyway.”
After Nan Chen said that, he glared at Ouyang Duo coldly and sent chills running down his spine.
I really underestimated this young man.
An eye for an eye! That’s what he’s doing right now!
Nan Chen did exactly what Ouyang Duo did to him to make Ouyang Duo reap the consequences of his actions.
“Nan Chen, are you threatening me? I have been in this industry for a few decades, so do you think I’ll be scared?”
Ouyang Duo still didn’t back down.
“You’re wise and experienced, so I’m sure you can assess the situation logically and figure out the best course of
action. You don’t have to give me an immediate reply. You can have a discussion with Mr. Huang first before giving
me an answer. I still have a meeting, so I’ll get going soon. Oh, do you want another cup of coffee? The company’s
coffee is always free of charge!”
A cold smirk appeared on Nan Chen’s lips.
