Shen Qiang, in high spirits, smiled radiantly as he went upstairs with the beautiful demon fox Chu Qing. Just as they reached the first floor, the small jade sword hanging on Shen Qiang's chest suddenly felt warm. Instinctively, Shen Qiang saw the pretty and athletic young girl from Qingyun Sword Pavilion, Kang Luoying.

Her long, shapely legs were clad in a pair of black faux-flesh slim warm leggings, and she wore a pair of slightly cute black boots on her feet. Over her black, form-fitting undershirt, she had on a white short waist-length trench coat.

It not only accentuated her perfect waistline but also outlined her youthful and athletic figure in a stunning manner.

Not only that.

The moment Shen Qiang saw her, she also saw Shen Qiang.

Originally following quietly behind everyone, she immediately froze in place, with a blush instantly rising on her pretty face, and even her eyebrows and eyes exuded shyness and joy.

This made Shen Qiang's eyes light up.

At this moment, Bianyi, coming up from the underground parking lot, happened to walk beside Shen Qiang. Seeing Shen Qiang looking joyfully at the beautiful young girl from Qingyun Sword Pavilion, he couldn't help but say with a smile, "No wonder it's the girl my dear boss is determined to 'save.' Turns out she's indeed so pretty."

Shen Qiang immediately stopped smiling and gave him a sidelong glance: "If you want me to dock your bonus, feel free to stand there and chat a bit more."

Bianyi chuckled: "You're not going to dock my bonus. On the contrary, you're going to reward me generously, because soon, after they sign the cooperation agreement, this beautiful young girl will belong to Heshenghe."

With that, Bianyi raised his eyebrow with a smile and walked toward the reception desk, then raised his brow at Shen Qiang with a smile: "The building's monitoring system, a109."

Shen Qiang laughed, nodded at the young female warrior whose eyes seemed eager to say something, and then took Ke Bizhu and the beautiful demon fox Chu Qing up in the special elevator. They arrived upstairs.

Back in his office, the already famished Shen Qiang took the breakfast Ke Bizhu had bought, eating while turning on the phone, entering the building's monitoring system, and opened the a109 surveillance.

Before long, through other surveillance, he saw Bianyi leading a hideous female demon from Heshenghe and a sinister-looking male demon into a small conference room. Shortly, through the corridor's surveillance, Shen Qiang saw the people from Qingyun Sword Pavilion going upstairs.

Then, that young female warrior and several other cultivators were taken to the reception room by the receptionist for tea.

Only two men who appeared to have some authority, under the guidance of Bianyi's female secretary, went to the small conference room.

Immediately, Shen Qiang saw Bianyi, wearing a red tie and smiling broadly, being overly polite and enthusiastic while shaking hands with the two from Qingyun Sword Pavilion.

Seeing his explosively enthusiastic smile, Shen Qiang just knew that Bianyi was definitely up to no good.

So, Shen Qiang watched with eager anticipation as he drank porridge and watched Bianyi negotiate with them.

But the content of the negotiation was largely boring.

Moreover, Shen Qiang was basically uninterested.

Because what Bianyi discussed with Qingyun Sword Pavilion was business: Qingyun Sword Pavilion could distribute used cars in the Provincial City, and Heshenghe certainly wouldn't disrupt it. Both sides wouldn't have to fight, but on equal terms, Heshenghe's used car business would also enter the Provincial City where Qingyun Sword Pavilion resided.

Both sides would only have ordinary people doing business in the other's region.

Both sides need to ensure that their business won't be harmed by the Cultivation World.

Then it's up to each side's ability to make money.

It seemed very fair — you do business here, I cover you, and then, hmm, my people will do business there, and you cover them.

No need to fight, all for making money.

Overall, it felt like terms beneficial to both parties.

But this was very boring. Shen Qiang didn't care about the profits of the used car market at all now — Shen Qiang cared about the beautiful young girl Kang Luoying.

She was the partner that Zuo Lianghao had schemed tirelessly for.

Shen Qiang wanted her.

Not for anything else, I guess if Kang Luoying could appear beside Shen Qiang and help him fight, Zuo Lianghao would be pissed.

But what is Bianyi talking about?

Didn't mention a word about the beautiful young girl from start to finish. Swallowing the salty side dish in his mouth, Shen Qiang frowned and said: "Ke Bizhu, find me a notebook and write it down: Bianyi didn't handle this affair properly, dock him half a year's bonus for me."

Upon hearing this, the Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu laughed until her eyes curved into crescents, saying: "Got it, boss, I'll note it down for you."

Shen Qiang nodded.

The beautiful demon fox Chu Qing, beside him, teased with a smile: "You're evil; Bianyi handled the situation well. Just because he didn't mention that beautiful young girl for you, you want to dock his bonus for six months? That's a bit stingy."

Shen Qiang raised an eyebrow with a smile: "If I say to dock, then I'll dock it. I'm the boss! If he has complaints, I'll deal with him."

The beautiful demon fox Chu Qing laughed: "Be careful, he might be pushed to the point of job-hopping."

"He wouldn't." Shen Qiang smiled confidently, then continued drinking his porridge.

And just at this time, Bianyi, after officially signing the cooperation agreement with the other party, smiled and said: "Very well, our agreement has been signed, but you must understand, my boss Shen Qiang is an outright Shen the Skinner, stingy and greedy. Your used car business is doing so well, making so much money, within three months he'll definitely regret it."

Shen Qiang was taken aback when he heard this, thinking to himself, when the hell did I ever care about the little money made from used cars? My real money-makers are the elixir pills and antiques!

But while Shen Qiang was surprised, the two from Qingyun Sword Pavilion became very serious, with one immediately saying: "Unexpectedly, Mr. Shen is such a public-spirited person, if Shen Qiang regrets halfway through, that would break our agreement, and it could even lead to conflict."

Shen Qiang then saw the corners of Bianyi's mouth show a peculiar smile as he lowered his voice and said: "My CEO, is essentially just a worker. I'm really too afraid of Shen Qiang going back on his word. In ancient times, kings used to exchange hostages to prevent betrayal, usually princes or something like that. But my boss, is the most shameless person I've ever seen in my life, and he doesn't even have any children right now."

Seeing their utterly baffled expressions, Bianyi smiled slightly: "But even so, we have a way to deal with him. We swap a personal guard on each side outside the contract. Shen Qiang's cultivation is low, you can place a master by his side, and if he dares to regret, you can take him down immediately. Then, whether to kill or torture is up to you."

Shen Qiang spat his porridge out.

And almost simultaneously, the two people from Qingyun Sword Pavilion were dumbfounded, with one asking incredulously, "President Shen, why would you do this?"

Bianyi's face sank, lowering his voice: "This Heshenghe was clearly built by me, yet Shen Qiang orders me around as if I'm a servant. Clearly, when he regrets, he pins all the blame on me. So trust me, plant a stronger guard by his side, he won't dare to mess around. I'll say it's a mutual agreement. That ugly female demon behind me, choose which one you want, take her away, and just leave the other one."

The two of them exchanged surprised glances for a moment, then one thought for a moment and said: "Very well, exchanging a guard into each other's side, then everyone can cooperate with peace of mind." With that, he frowned slightly at the ugly female demon and said: "Then let it be her. Our Pavilion Master has ladies around, a male wouldn't fit."

At the moment he heard these words, Bianyi's eyes sparkled like bulbs and he said very happily: "Hmm, what you said makes a lot of sense! It's settled then, she will go with you, and the girl who came with you will stay."
