“Alright, how about we talk after drinking this glass of red wine?” Boss Zhang handed Xia Xin Xin another glass of red wine. Xia Xin Xin had just taken the glass and was about to drink it.
Suddenly a hand reached out and slapped the back of Xia Xin Xin’s hand. Xia Xin Xin felt a sharp pain, and the glass immediately slipped from her grasp, falling straight onto Boss Zhang. It soaked a large part of his clothes instantly.
“What are you doing?” Boss Zhang stood up abruptly and shouted in anger.
Xia Xin Xin also turned around and stood up, staring at Luo Chen.
“What are you doing?”
“You cannot drink the wine anymore.” Luo Chen did not even glance at Xia Xin Xin. He kept his head down and continued smoking.
“Boss Xia, since things have come to this, there is nothing left to discuss. You people have no rules at all.” Boss Zhang snorted coldly.
“I am sorry, Boss Zhang. I am so sorry.” Xia Xin Xin apologised hurriedly.
“Luo Chen, apologise to Boss Zhang.” Xia Xin Xin turned back and glared fiercely at Luo Chen.
“Apologise for what?” Luo Chen sneered.
“Humph, forget it. Since your own people have no rules whatsoever, there is nothing to talk about.”
“Do not say I did not give you a chance, Boss Zhang. Yesterday you stood me up, and today you treat me like this again.”
“You show zero sincerity for cooperation. What contract is there to discuss?” Boss Zhang stood up with a cold face, ready to walk out.
“Boss Zhang, it is our fault. Please calm down. I will make him apologise to you immediately.” At this moment Xia Xin Xin almost hated Luo Chen to death.
She had never liked him anyway. After he arrived, he had sat by himself the whole time without helping at all.
Now he had come to ruin the matter, which made Xia Xin Xin detest him even more.
“Luo Chen, apologise to Boss Zhang right now!” Xia Xin Xin roared at him again.
But Luo Chen ignored Xia Xin Xin completely. Instead he looked coldly at Boss Zhang, then stood up and slapped him hard across the face.
This slap stunned not only Xia Xin Xin but also Boss Zhang himself.
“Get lost.” Luo Chen smiled.
Boss Zhang touched his face with an expression of disbelief.
After being stunned for a long while, Boss Zhang glared fiercely at Luo Chen.
“Good, very good. I will remember this slap. I will report everything that happened today to the head office.”
“I want to see who will still cooperate with your Xia family in the future.” Boss Zhang was not just saying empty words. Although he was only the boss of a small company, the power behind him was terrifying.
He had the backing of a super wealthy family from Hai Dong. If he truly offended them and they decided to blacklist the Xia family in Hai Dong, the Xia family might really be finished.
This time Xia Xin Xin panicked completely.
Zhong Sheng Jie beside them remained silent the whole time, watching the scene with extreme schadenfreude.
“If you do not get lost, I might change my mind.” Luo Chen stood up slowly.
There was definitely something wrong with the wine. There was no doubt about it. Luo Chen even suspected there were some unspeakable secrets between this Boss Zhang and Zhong Sheng Jie.
But that did not matter. He was here to repay a favour and would not care how Xia Xin Xin viewed him or what she thought.
A drop of water’s grace should be repaid with a gushing spring. After repaying the favour, everyone would go their separate ways and become strangers.
So Luo Chen did not explain anything.
Besides, could this contract really not be signed?
“Good, just you wait. This grudge is set.” Boss Zhang left extremely quickly.
Luo Chen took out his phone and sent a message.
“You surnamed Luo, what exactly do you want?” Xia Xin Xin completely lost her temper.
Yesterday because of Luo Chen the contract was not signed. Today again because of him, and now he had completely offended the other party.
He had caused a huge disaster.
“Boss Luo, is this how you handle things for the company?” Zhong Sheng Jie mocked from the side, adding fuel to the fire.
This was the outcome he wanted most. No matter what background Luo Chen had, how could he compete with him?
“Luo Chen, what exactly are you trying to do?”
“Is this the reason my father told me to treat you politely?” Xia Xin Xin shook her head. She was disappointed in Luo Chen to the extreme.
Everything before could still be blamed on her own actions against Luo Chen, which caused so much trouble.
But now?
This time it was Luo Chen himself who had ruined the matter.
“I want to see what you will report back to the company.”
“I want to see how you will explain this to my father.” Xia Xin Xin glared at Luo Chen hatefully, tears flashing in her eyes.
A perfectly good matter had been turned into this mess by Luo Chen.
The Xia family was now like a tall building on the verge of collapse in the storm. One more gust might really bring it down.
“Boss Luo, do not tell me you have just signed away the contract like this?” Zhong Sheng Jie mocked again with schadenfreude.
“This is Boss Luo’s method. Admirable, truly admirable.”
“Lo”
“Enough. Is it not just a contract? And only a few million. Why are you making such a big fuss?” Luo Chen snorted coldly.
“Not just a contract?” Xia Xin Xin was so angry she laughed.
“Luo Chen, oh Luo Chen. Just a contract, only a few million?”
“Boss Luo, you say it so lightly. Then why do not you bring me a deal and get the contract signed for me?” Zhong Sheng Jie mocked again from the side.
“All of you sit down. The contract will arrive soon, and Boss Zhang will come back shortly.” Luo Chen sat down with a cold smile.
He suddenly felt uncomfortable being around a group of idiots.
“Boss Zhang will come back?”
“Luo Chen, are you stupid?” Xia Xin Xin was so angry that her liver hurt.
“Xia Xin Xin, let me tell you one thing. No matter what I, Luo, do, whether it is business or signing contracts, I have never begged anyone!”
“Whatever I, Luo, do, others have always come to beg me.” Luo Chen picked up a cup of clear tea and took a light sip.
Xia Xin Xin was angry to the point of laughing again.
Was Luo Chen mocking her for begging like a dog just now?
But did Luo Chen have the qualifications?
If not for her father, what was he?
He might still be somewhere doing a security job and looking at other people’s faces.
Zhong Sheng Jie also thought this Boss Luo was a fool.
He had just slapped the man and told him to get lost, yet he still thought the other would come back begging?
Even a fairy tale was not this unrealistic.
Moreover, what was the other person’s status?
What was his status?
The other would come beg him?
But just as Xia Xin Xin and Zhong Sheng Jie were about to mock Luo Chen, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open again.
A noblewoman wearing a cheongsam pushed open the door, while Boss Zhang followed behind her with a face as pale as death.
Dozens of men in black suits followed behind the noblewoman. “Lord Luo, you came to Hai Dong but did not inform me in advance.”
