Chapter 1351: Wait a Minute / Rigged a Scam

“President Xu, have some chewing gum.” Liu Jifei’s lawyer, Liu Luyou, passed Xu Xiaobin a piece of chewing gum.

Xu Xiaobin didn’t think much of it, assuming that it was to keep his breath fresh in the negotiation in a while, so he took one and put it in his mouth. “We don’t have to be so formal, right? It’s just signing a contract.”

“Hehe, this was especially handed over by President Liu. We have to do it accordingly!” As Liu Luyou said this with a smile, the phone rang. He took it out and looked at Xu Xiaobin. “President Liu’s calling. I’m picking it up.”

“Okay.” Xu Xiaobin nodded.

Liu Luyou picked up the phone calmly. “President Liu, hello!”

“Luyou, how’s the preparation over there?” asked Liu Jifei.

“President Liu, you can rest assured that everything is ready,” said Liu Luyou. He knew that President Liu would definitely know what he was talking about.

“En, good. Report to me anytime.” Liu Jifei heard that he was ready and was immediately relieved.

“Okay, President Liu,” Liu Luyou said tacitly.

Xu Xiaobin could also faintly hear what Liu Jifei and Liu Luyou said, but in his opinion, it wasn’t a big deal as it was just an arrangement before signing the contract.

The only thing that made Xu Xiaobin uncomfortable was that people on his side, except for himself, the lawyers and staff members, were all Liu Jifei’s employees. He was the commander without any actual power.

It was not that these people overtly agreed and covertly opposed him. On the contrary, these people were very obedient toward him. They could do well with his arrangements. Xu Xiaobin just felt displeased about this feeling.

Perhaps Liu Jifei was afraid that Xu Xiaobin would get the credit. After all, Xu Xiaobin was the one who made this cooperation work. Liu Jifei didn’t even participate in it, so he sent his employees to watch Xu Xiaobin so that he wouldn’t get greedy over the credit.

In fact, Xu Xiaobin did not want to get greedy over the credit. He knew that some of the credit must be given to Liu Jifei. Otherwise, it would be impossible for a small office manager to take such a large amount of credit.

“Does President Liu have any orders?” Xu Xiaobin looked at Liu Luyou and asked.

“It’s nothing. He just asked us how our preparation was going.” Liu Luyou smiled and said, “President Xu, I guess the people of Ming Yang Security should arrive soon. Should we welcome them at the door?”

“Okay.” Xu Xiaobin nodded, stood up, and walked out of the meeting room with Liu Luyou.

Jing Xiaolu and Bao Sanli, as well as a team of staff, entered the Huihai Business Club and went to the conference room on the third floor. They saw Xu Xiaobin and his lawyer, Liu Luyou, standing at the door to welcome them.

“President Xu, you still came so early.” Jing Xiaolu was embarrassed seeing Xu Xiaobin come before her.

“Hehe, it’s fine. Today is a big day. Luyou and I had nothing to do, so we came over and arranged the meeting room so that we can take a few photos when signing the contract,” said Xu Xiaobin.

Jing Xiaolu glanced at the conference room. The decorations in the room were indeed good; the flowers and other decorations were all set up. There was a faint scent in the room. It seemed that Xu Xiaobin really did put effort into it.

In this regard, Jing Xiaolu and Bao Sanli also had promising prospects for this cooperation. Now it seemed that the other party still attached great importance to this cooperation. It could be seen from the attitude of their arrangement of the contract signing venue.

“Thank you for your effort.” Jing Xiaolu sighed.

“President Bao, welcome! Welcome!” Xu Xiaobin saw Bao Sanli, who was behind Jing Xiaolu, and he greeted Bao Sanli with a smile and shook hands with him. Jing Xiaolu conducted the previous negotiations. Bao Sanli did not participate, but he came personally today.

They entered the conference room, accompanied by Xu Xiaobin and Liu Luyou. After the two sides spoke a few words, they talked about signing the contract.

“Is there any problem with the contract?” Xu Xiaobin asked. The contract was finalized yesterday with Jing Xiaolu. He didn’t know if Bao Sanli had any problems after reading it.

“No problem. I have already read it.” Bao Sanli nodded.

“Well, we will print two copies on the spot.” Xu Xiaobin spoke to the staff member, Chang Xiyou, who had already prepared.

Chang Xiyou opened the contract that was finalized yesterday from the notebook, connected to the printer, and printed two contracts quickly. After doing this, Chang Xiyou handed the contracts to Xu Xiaobin. “President Xu, I have printed it.”

“Okay.” Xu Xiaobin took the contracts. After carefully reading each page one by one and being sure that there was no problem, he nodded and handed it to Jing Xiaolu. “You check the contract and see if there is any problem.”

Jing Xiaolu took the contract and carefully reread it. Then she handed it to Bao Sanli. “President Bao, do you want to take a look?”

“You can read it to see if there is a problem. I don’t have to read it.” Bao Sanli smiled and waved his hand. To be honest, he was really not good at reading these things.

“Hehe, it doesn’t matter. After we read it, the lawyers from both sides will have to review it again.” Xu Xiaobin smiled and said, “We are also just roughly looking at the terms and conditions. The details will still be handed to the lawyers for review. After all, they are the professionals.”

“That’s also true!” said Bao Sanli. “Then, let the lawyer review the contract.”

The process continued smoothly to the stage where the lawyers of both parties reviewed the contract. Jiangyan Group’s lawyer, Liu Luyou, and Ming Yang Security Company’s lawyer, Wang Hongcha, were very careful. Both of them held one copy. After reading it, they exchanged with each other and looked at it again.

After confirming that there was no problem, Liu Luyou and Wang Hongcha nodded. “President Xu, President Bao, there is no problem with the contract; you can sign it.”

Jing Xiaolu somehow felt dizzy. Is it that I didn’t sleep well yesterday? No way, right? I didn’t have insomnia, right… Jing Xiaolu felt a little bit strange.

Since the contract was reviewed, Xu Xiaobin first took the contract, signed his name on each of the two copies, and then pushed the contract to Bao Sanli. “President Bao, I have signed it.”

Bao Sanli also picked up the pen and signed his name on the contract.

“Well, everyone has signed the contract; we will stamp the contract now.” Liu Luyou stood up and took the contract as he smiled.

A special seal for the signing of contracts was stamped on each page of the contract, preventing a page in the middle from being substituted stealthily. The special contract seal was usually stamped on a part of all the pages of the contract with the pages spread horizontally. With that, every page would have the mark from being stamped by a part of the seal. It would be impossible to falsify after both sides had stamped it.

Liu Luyou picked up the contract and turned to the side. At this moment, the contract was brought in front of him. Jing Xiaolu and Bao Sanli could not see the contract in his hand from this direction.

Jing Xiaolu frowned. The lawyer of the other party would not make such an obvious mistake, right? If you block the contract, we will inevitably be suspicious of something.

In a blink of an eye, Liu Luyou had returned to his seat, placed the contract on the table, stamped the contract, and handed it to Wang Hongcha. He smiled and said, “It’s your turn to stamp.”

“Wait–” When Jing Xiaolu saw that Wang Hongcha was going to stamp without a doubt, she immediately stopped it.

“What’s wrong?” Bao Sanli was stunned; he was baffled looking at Jing Xiaolu. Xu Xiaobin over there was also inexplicable. He didn’t understand why Jing Xiaolu said to wait at this time.

Liu Luyou heard Jing Xiaolu’s voice, and he frowned subconsciously. He thought that this matter would be very smooth, but he didn’t expect Jing Xiaolu from the other party to be an extremely savvy person.

Now, let me see if the boss’ secret weapon is good. I hope it is as magical as he said.

“I’ll look at the contract again.” Jing Xiaolu grabbed the contract from Wang Hongcha.

“Vice President Jing, what do you mean by this?” Xu Xiaobin didn’t say anything, but Liu Luyou was somewhat reluctant. “Doesn’t Vice President Jing believe us? Do you think we would do any petty tricks?”

“Hehe. On the contrary, I am not targeting anyone. I just feel that there is no harm in being careful.” Jing Xiaolu smiled, picked up the contract, and looked again carefully.

“I hope so. Vice President Jing, you know that we have great sincerity for this cooperation,” said Liu Luyou with a displeased expression.

Chapter 1357: Rigged a Scam

Jing Xiaolu heard that Liu Luyou was a little displeased. She also felt she was being too sensitive. Am I making a fuss? Since Liu Luyou expressed his displeasure openly, it seems that he didn’t really do any petty tricks. Otherwise, a normal person would choose to keep quiet if he had done any petty tricks. If he were speaking unwillingly, wouldn’t that obviously hint that there is a problem?

However, Jing Xiaolu was just thinking about it. She still read the contract seriously.

Liu Luyou was now pinning his hopes on Liu Jifei’s secret weapon. It depended on whether this secret weapon was effective! If this secret weapon were effective, his words wouldn’t affect the content that Jing Xiaolu was going to read. If this secret weapon were ineffective, it would still be exposed even if he didn’t say anything.

Jing Xiaolu looked at the contract and found that there was no problem, so she smiled embarrassedly. “It is better to be cautious about contract matters.”

“Right, Vice President Jing is right.” Xu Xiaobin could understand Jing Xiaolu’s approach, so he didn’t say much.

Wang Hongcha took the contract. Since Jing Xiaolu had read it so carefully, then Wang Hongcha couldn’t be sloppy. Before the contract was stamped, he also carefully read the contract patiently. After he found that there was nothing wrong with it, he stamped the contract.

“Happy cooperation!” Wang Hongcha stood up and handed a contract to Jing Xiaolu, and he gave another contract to Xu Xiaobin.

“Happy cooperation!” Just as Xu Xiaobin was about to reach out, Lawyer Liu Luyou reached out and took the contract first.

“I think I should keep it with me. This thing can’t be lost.” Liu Luyou smiled and put the contract into his briefcase.

This thing could not be seen by Xu Xiaobin now.

Xu Xiaobin thought that Liu Luyou was afraid that he would be holding the contract and claiming the credit for himself proudly, so he didn’t think much about it. Liu Luyou was Liu Jifei’s staff; this was understandable. If he wanted to keep the contract, then let him be.

The two sides shook hands and took photos. After they decided to start discussing the formation of the new company tomorrow, they left the Huihai Business Club.

Outside the door, Jing Xiaolu’s spirit was sober in a moment after being blown by the cold wind. Her eyes lit up as if she had let go of something; she felt very uncomfortable.

“I didn’t expect this cooperation to be so smooth.” Bao Sanli smiled. “If Brother Yang knew, he must be very happy. Xiaolu, you have made great contributions. Brother Yang is blessed to find such a good wife!”

Jing Xiaolu blushed, embarrassed. “It is my first time negotiating a contract; I was learning during the process.”

“A good beginning gets you halfway to success. With this good start, I believe that our company will carry out more business expansions in the future.” Bao Sanli was also very happy. Although the Ming Yang Security Company took over many security businesses in Song Jiang’s hotels, and it had integrated a lot of property companies, they could only do this. They were in a stagnant state. The expansion of the bank escort business was a good start.

After Liu Luyou sent away Bao Sanli, Jing Xiaolu, and others, he said to Xu Xiaobin, “President Xu, why don’t you go back first? I will clean up the conference room.”

“Conference room? Do you still need those flowers?” Xu Xiaobin was a bit baffled; he didn’t know what Liu Luyou was going to clean up.

“Those things are not needed, but the incense needs to be put out. What if the conference room catches fire?” Liu Luyou explained with a smile.

“This is also true. Then you should go quickly. I will wait here for you.” Xu Xiaobin decided to wait for Liu Luyou for a while, so then they can go back together.

“Okay, then wait for me for a bit.” Liu Luyou nodded and went upstairs.

When he came to the conference room and saw the waiter in the hall cleaning the conference room, Liu Luyou was shocked. He said hurriedly, “Wait a minute. I still have something to take away!”

The waiter was astounded. He didn’t expect someone would come back after leaving, seeing that the conference room only had a few incense burners in addition to a few pots of flowers. Is he going to take all that back?

However, although the waiter was a bit disdainful, his face was still very friendly. “Okay, sir. Please.”

Seeing that the few incense burners were still there, Liu Luyou breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly extinguished the incense burners with tea on the table, put them in a bag, and walked out of the meeting room. He told the waiter. “Okay, you can clean it.”

“Okay, sir.” The waiter nodded and went to the conference room to clean it. He thought, That guy is really stingy. Do you even want to take back a few broken incense burners?

Liu Luyou took the incense burners down the stairs. Then he waved to Xu Xiaobin and got in his car. Xu Xiaobin saw that Liu Luyou came down, so then he instructed the driver to drive.

This car was Liu Jifei’s Honda Accord, and Liu Luyou himself owned an Audi A4. In addition to taking the salary from Liu Jifei, he also received wages from several other children of the extended Liu Family, so he was very rich.

Moreover, he was very strict in his words, and he was ruthless. The children of the Liu Family favored him. They gave him a lot of rewards, so buying an Audi A4 was nothing.

For example, this time, Liu Jifei gave him fifty thousand yuan as a reward.

After getting into the car, Liu Luyou called Liu Jifei for the first time.

“Luyou? How is it going?” When Liu Jifei saw Liu Luyou calling, and he quickly picked it up and asked.

“Do not worry, President Liu. Everything went well!” Liu Luyou said, “President Liu, your incense is really useful!”

“Oh? Is it? Hehe, it seems that the Thai boss didn’t lie to me.” Liu Jifei also sighed with relief. He bought the incense at a high price. It was said to be some hallucinogens like belladonna and mandala.

“Yeah, I made some changes in the contract. After I changed a few pages, Jing Xiaolu seemed to notice something. She actually read it again when I was going to stamp the seal.” Liu Luyou said, “Then their lawyer also read it again, but they still didn’t find anything wrong! It was amazing!”

“That’s good.” Liu Jifei had an indescribable pleasure in his heart. “That b*tch, Jing Xiaolu. I will let her know what the price of fooling me is! This time, I will make them lose everything!”

“Yeah, isn’t she digging her own grave by provoking our President Liu!?” Liu Luyou smiled and said, “President Liu, what’s going on with the incense? Can you tell me? I am curious!”

“Hehe, in fact, the incense can cause hallucinations unknowingly after it gets lit. Jing Xiaolu and her lawyer noticed nothing wrong reading the contract again was because their minds had the residual impression of the previous contract. After you changed the pages and passed it to them, their minds still had the images of the previous contract. This incense can cause hallucinations in people. Therefore, the things they saw became what they saw previously.” Liu Jifei proudly explained. “How about it? This thing is very useful, right?”

“Sure enough!” Liu Luyou thought,_ This is really a good thing. I don’t know if I can get some of it_. So he said, “President Liu, do you have any extra? Can you give me some?”

“Oh, this is no problem. The remaining incense is all yours.” Liu Jifei was in a good mood today, so he generously agreed to Liu Luyou’s request.

“Thank you, President Liu!” Liu Luyou glanced at the incense in the bag. There was still a lot left, and he thanked hurriedly.

Hanging up the phone, Liu Jifei couldn’t help but whistle. Hehe, I will see how you die this time, you little b*tch. You think you are so bad*ss since you have Yang Ming? This time, you made a huge mistake. Let’s see if Yang Ming will bother you or not!

Liu Jifei’s move was really insidious. Not only would he make Yang Ming lose, but he also made Jing Xiaolu and Yang Ming turn against each other.

As Liu Jifei imagined Jing Xiaolu asking him to let her go when she was utterly helpless, Liu Jifei really couldn’t help it. Hmph, let’s see what kind of tricks you can play this time. Won’t you be lying on the bed waiting for me?

Xu Xiaobin still didn’t know that he was the scapegoat this time by aiding a tyrant; he was still dreaming that he would become the subsidiary company’s manager.
