"Me?" Jian Chenyu gave Ye Qiu a disdainful laugh, slightly raising his head with great arrogance, "Haha, it seems you're really a country bumpkin, you don't even know who I am.
Since you've asked, I'll kindly enlighten you. Listen carefully, I am Jian Chenyu, a top-tier celebrity in the entertainment industry. Wherever I go, I'm the center of attention, adored by all. My fans, each one of them spitting would be enough to drown you.
Additionally, I am the spokesperson hired at a high price by your President Bai for your project. I've said so much just to let you know that my status is not something someone like you can compare to."
"Oh." After listening to Jian Chenyu introduce himself for a while, Ye Qiu nodded slightly, and said calmly, "It does seem like you have some status. Since you were invited by President Bai, I won't argue with you any further."
After speaking, Ye Qiu walked over to the window sill and looked into the distance.
His words made Jian Chenyu's face turn blue and white with anger, almost exploding, "Kid, watch your words. How dare you tell me you're letting it go for President Bai's sake?
It seems you really don't know my status. Knowing that I'm discussing matters with President Bai, you should hurry up and get lost. Do you really need your President Bai to say it himself before you're willing to leave?"
Saying that, Jian Chenyu turned to Bai Lan, looking somewhat impatient, "President Bai, this person is really too rude. I think you have to kick him out; honestly, if it were up to me, I'd definitely fire him."
Jian Chenyu's words seemed polite, yet his heart was full of confidence.
He's been through situations like this before, making him very sure that once he said it, Bai Lan would definitely fire Ye Qiu.
After saying that, Jian Chenyu gave Ye Qiu a mocking glance.
Haha, a mere nobody dares to challenge me?
Really doesn't know their place!
Just wait until you're fired; let's see if you can still act all high and mighty.
However, while Jian Chenyu was waiting for Bai Lan to kick Ye Qiu out, Bai Lan just gave a slight smile and said, "Sorry, I have some matters to handle here. You can go back first!"
"Haha, did you hear that?" Jian Chenyu pointed at Ye Qiu, "Your President Bai is asking you to get out!"
Before Ye Qiu could respond, Bai Lan immediately picked up the pen from the table and pointed it at Jian Chenyu, "It seems you've misunderstood. I was saying, you leave first."
"What?" In an instant, Jian Chenyu was dumbfounded.
What's going on?
Bai Lan is actually asking me to leave?
What a joke?
Who am I?
The top-tier celebrity Jian Chenyu!
Everywhere I go, I'm the center of everyone's attention, praised and flattered, and now Bai Lan is asking me to leave for someone else?
Jian Chenyu could not understand or accept it, furrowed his brows, and then gave Bai Lan a meaningful look, "President Bai, what do you mean by this? You should know, recently many people have been seeking my endorsement, yet I chose to come to your Bai Group."
Facing the blatant threat, Bai Lan was not afraid at all, and said coolly, "It seems you don't understand. Indeed, many people seek you, but whoever it is, they will pay you a lot of money.
Actually, that's not important. What's important is there are many celebrities nationwide like you, and if I'm willing, I can have them all come here."
"Besides, we've already discussed almost everything, and if you're unwilling, then our cooperation ends here!"
In the last sentence, Bai Lan deliberately emphasized her tone.
After speaking, she lowered her head to deal with the documents, completely ignoring Jian Chenyu, whose face was ashen.
Jian Chenyu was so angry he almost spat blood.
As a top-tier celebrity, with his status and position, he's accustomed to being lofty and cannot tolerate being rebuked.
Jian Chenyu really wanted to curse, but he ultimately held back.
Bai Lan was right, just a top-tier celebrity. Although many people seek him, they all need to pay, don't they? The key point is, Bai Group is currently offering the highest price.
Opportunity to make money like this, how could Jian Chenyu let it go easily?
"Then I won't disturb President Bai any further." Jian Chenyu gave Bai Lan a stiff smile and then glared at Ye Qiu hatefully before turning to leave.
How could he not see it? Bai Lan's opposition to him was entirely because of the man who had suddenly burst in.
Facing huge rewards, Jian Chenyu ultimately had to swallow his pride. But just as he reached the office door, Bai Lan's indifferent voice reached his ears again, "Xiao Li, the sofa in my office is dirty. Arrange for someone to buy a new one and replace it."
"Damn it!" Jian Chenyu was so angry he bit his tongue, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
Damn it.
Who exactly is that man?
I just sat on the sofa for a bit, and Bai Lan wants to replace it entirely?
What kind of treatment is this?
The more Jian Chenyu thought about it, the angrier he got. He really wanted to rush over and give Ye Qiu a beating, but when thinking about the large sum of money he was about to receive, he bowed his head, kept a grim face, and quickly left.
Ye Qiu just flipped himself around and sat on Bai Lan's office desk, smiling, "The sofa thing was just a joke I made earlier. Why bother getting a new one?"
"I don't like joking around," Bai Lan said calmly.
Ye Qiu smiled but didn't say more.
Bai Lan's actions made him feel very warm, and he had to admit, having a woman who knows how to bring a man dignity at crucial times is indeed a rare blessing.
"I've had the bidding report sent to Lv Zuowei," Bai Lan suddenly said.
Ye Qiu nodded slightly, "If things proceed as usual, the Bai Group will most likely lose the bid for this city project. Is it worth it for someone you've just known for a few days?"
"Of course it is." Bai Lan gave Ye Qiu a helpless glance, "I don't understand, Xu Xin'Er has already sacrificed so much for us, why can't you trust her? Doesn't her actions prove anything?"
"Trust?" Ye Qiu shook his head with a bitter smile, "I once knew a mercenary; over two years, we went through life and death countless times. To everyone, we were life-and-death friends.
We even discussed mutually engaging our future children for marriage, but one day, he chose to assassinate me for a large bounty. Perhaps because I've been through too much, I find it hard to trust anyone easily?"
After speaking, to avoid further conflict, Ye Qiu turned and left.
On his way out of the office, just as he reached the elevator, he encountered a tear-stained, pitiful-looking woman.
"Xu Xin'Er?" Ye Qiu paused in his steps.
