Chapter 68: Chapter 68 - 68 The Role of Beauty in Negotiations

Su Zixi also smiled, but as she smiled, her eyes suddenly became somewhat moist.

It was a pity she didn’t even have a relative or a lover to share this joy with.

After all the results had been announced, the award ceremony followed, and the lecture hall remained lively for quite some time before it ended.

Su Zixi and Shen Yushan were about to celebrate with their teammates when a staff member stopped them.

“Some students, HI Group is interested in purchasing your creative project. Are you interested?” the staff member said with a smile.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Shen Yushan gasped in surprise, as if she was about to faint.

“HI Group, am I hearing right…” she clutched her chest, “Zhixi, this is like pie falling from the sky!”

Su Zixi was startled.

HI Group… it seemed to be a property of the He Family.

Could it be Young Master He?

Su Zixi felt her heart beating faster, and she didn’t know why she suddenly felt a bit shy, so she lightly coughed and nudged Shen Yushan, “Well, Yushan, you go talk to them.”

“No way, you know our project the best, so it’s better if you go,” Shen Yushan said with a beaming smile, “Plus, you’re pretty, don’t underestimate the power of beauty in negotiations!”

Su Zixi was speechless. If the person wanting to buy their idea was indeed Young Master He, his beauty would probably be even more lethal… She felt she had no advantage at all.

But since Shen Yushan had said so, she wouldn’t refuse, and with a fist pump, she said, “Then wait for my good news.”

Their teammates nodded excitedly at her.

Su Zixi followed the staff member to one side of the lecture hall, pushed open the door, and the first person she saw was Yun Shenhan.

“Mr. Yun?” Su Zixi exclaimed in surprise.

Although Yun Shenhan was Xuefei’s brother, Su Zixi didn’t have much contact with him, so she always addressed him with respect.

Yun Shenhan caught the surprise in her eyes and smiled slightly, “Seeing me, you seem disappointed?”

“No,” Su Zixi said with an awkward smile, “I heard from the staff that it was HI Group that wanted to buy our ideas, so… ”

“Yes, it is ‘he’ who wants to buy them,” Yun Shenhan emphasized the word “he” and began walking out, “You can talk it over slowly.”

Only then did Su Zixi notice there was another person standing by the window, whose figure was occasionally visible through the fluttering curtains, dressed in black, looking tall and aloof, like an unsheathed sword.

Su Zixi felt her heart skip a few beats again!

So he had been there all along, meaning her performance, her success, had been witnessed by at least one person.

She felt she must have been lacking love for too long, suddenly feeling an inexplicable urge to cry.

But then, remembering this man already had a fiancée, her eyes grew dim. She couldn’t help clenching her fists, reminding herself that, despite Young Master He’s irresistible charm, she… she could still try to resist.

The man walked towards her step by step, stopped in front of her, his dark eyes filled with a hint of amusement: “Your presentation was very good.”

Upon hearing the man’s praise, Su Zixi immediately forgot all about resisting; her heart leaped with excitement and her eyes glowed fervently, “You… you were watching the whole time? Actually, there were a few parts I later felt were not perfect, like… ”

He Jingyao chuckled softly and placed his index finger on her lips, “The parts you think are imperfect can be revised later.”

“Hmm?” Su Zixi was puzzled.

“Not only do I plan to purchase your ideas, but I also intend to hire you as the project manager. What do you say?” he smiled, dangling the bait.
