Chapter 386: Chase Him Out of the Table? Master Jun Wonât Sit Anymore
âMrs. Zheng, Mrs. Qin, what brings you here?â Bo Qing was flirting with the new housekeeper when he suddenly saw the two walk in together. He hurriedly walked up.
Although these two ladies did not have any real power, as the saying went, if the pillow talk was good, the truth could be reversed.
The men beside the two women were all in charge of life and death, so everyone present leaned towards Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Qin.
Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Qin had power, while Mo Ling had money. Logically speaking, with Mo Lingâs status, she shouldnât be able to blend into their circle.
However, Mo Ling was especially good at spending money. Every few days, gifts would come to her door, so she earned a place in the circle of rich ladies in the capital.
At this birthday banquet, Mo Ling had also spent an astronomical price to send two necklaces out before inviting them over.
Mo Ling supported the hairpin on her head and shook her waist as she walked forward. âSister Zheng, Sister Qin, youâre here.â
âHey, look at the day we chose. I wanted to come and catch up with you, but I didnât expect to run into something big happening at your house. Whatâs wrong?â The plump Mrs. Zheng was the first to speak.
âItâs the 24th birthday of the eldest son of the Bo family, Bo Xiao.â Mo Ling covered her lips and smiled as she pointed at Bo Xiao, who was not far away.
âWe came at the wrong time.â
âMadam Zheng, Madam Qin, what are you talking about? Itâs our honor to have the two of you here. We welcome you.â Bo Qing had a real estate project on hand and was worried about not being able to move it. Now that Madam Zheng was here, he couldnât wait for the two of them to play for a while more.
With that, Bo Qing guided Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Qin to the main table.
âWhy havenât I heard that CEO Bo has an older son?â the thin Mrs. Qin asked casually. âIâve only followed my Old Qin to Beijing these few years. Am I too ignorant?â
When she said this, everyone present looked a little awkward. All kinds of complicated gazes landed on Bo Xiao.
âMore than ten years ago, when I was still a child, I knew that CEO Boâs first wife had given birth to his eldest son, Bo Xiao. Perhaps Mrs. Qin, youâre too forgetful,â Xia Wanyuan, who sat at the main table with Bo Xiao, said.

âMore than ten years ago, when I was still a child, I knew that CEO Boâs first wife had given birth to his eldest son, Bo Xiao. Perhaps Mrs. Qin, youâre too forgetful,â Xia Wanyuan, who sat at the main table with Bo Xiao, said.
âWho is this? Why havenât I seen her before?â Mrs. Qin stopped herself and glanced at Xia Wanyuan unhappily.
âThis is a celebrity friend of Bo Xiaoâs,â Mo Ling replied.
âOh?â Mrs. Qin raised her voice, and anyone who was not blind could see the mockery on her face.
How could a small celebrity be so shameless to sit at the main table?
âIâm sorry, Miss Xia. Our table did not set up a seat for you. We set up a guest table at the side. Please move over there.â Mo Ling gave a look, and the servant by the side stepped forward to âinviteâ Xia Wanyuan out of the main table.
Everyone present felt that Xia Wanyuan was a joke. She actually sat at the main table so boldly and could not tell her status at all.
Xia Wanyuan did not want to bicker with them. After all, looking at their faces, she was in no mood to eat. She immediately stood up and sat at the table with the servant.
Bo Xiao glanced at Mo Ling coldly, making oneâs heart turn cold for no reason. Then, he stood up and sat at the guest table with Xia Wanyuan.
However, no one at the main table cared about the departure of the protagonist of the birthday banquet. Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Qin were asking about Bo Yi, and the others followed suit, as if Bo Yi was the protagonist of the banquet.
When the people at the other tables saw this awkward scene, their expressions varied. The atmosphere in the hall was rather subtle.
Some people looked curiously at Bo Xiao and Xia Wanyuan, guessing what their relationship was that actually made Bo Xiao abandon the main table and sit with her in the corner.
Just as everyone was speculating, a report suddenly came from the door. âCEO Jun of the Jun Corporation is here for the banquet!â
For a moment, the entire hall was silent.
Chapter 387: Banquet
Jun Shiling?!
Jun Shiling would actually come here? We would have a chance to see Jun Shiling too?
This was what most of the people present thought. After all, the Jun Corporation had a considerable economic influence worldwide.
Some people present had also heard some news about Jun Shiling returning on the Hurricane that night. The various operations in China had changed, making it impossible for anyone to understand the background behind Jun Shiling.
It made the already very mysterious Jun Shiling even more unpredictable. No one had expected to see Jun Shiling at this birthday banquet, as Jun Shiling had always lived in seclusion and rarely appeared.
Probably only the representative appointed by Jun Shiling? Everyone did not believe that Jun Shiling would really come.
However, the door suddenly opened and an extremely handsome man in a suit walked in. Just from his oppressive and powerful aura, some people who had never seen Jun Shiling before could recognize him at a glance. This was the famous master of the Jun Corporation.
Jun Shiling entered and glanced at the hall first. Meeting Xia Wanyuanâs warning gaze, the corners of Jun Shilingâs lips curled up slightly, then he walked in.
âCEO Jun?!?!â Bo Qingâs eyes widened slightly when he saw Jun Shiling. That piece of land he wanted to do for the real estate project belonged to the Jun Corporation. Now that he saw Jun Shiling coming over personally, he hurriedly went up to him.
âIâm really honored that you came to visit the Bo family.â Bo Qing leaned forward, wanting to get close to Jun Shiling, but Jun Shiling did not even look at him.
âYouâre here?â Bo Xiao, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly stood up and waved at Jun Shiling. Then, everyone watched as Jun Shiling walked to the table in the corner.
What was going on?!
Bo Qing was also stunned. A week after Bo Xiao went abroad, he had received a notice of expulsion from the school saying that Bo Xiao was fighting outside.
Bo Qing could not be bothered with his son. It did not matter to him if he quit school or not. It was fine as long as he did not come back and cause trouble.
Hence, Bo Qing was in charge of transferring money to Bo Xiaoâs card every month. His request was that Bo Xiao stay abroad quietly.
According to the investigation report from abroad, Bo Xiao had been hanging out in nightclubs and bars every day. How did he know Jun Shiling? And it seemed like their relationship was not bad.
âCEO Jun, do you know my eldest son?â Bo Qing leaned over and asked carefully.
Jun Shiling nodded. âWeâre friends.â
!!
Bo Qing was shocked, and so were the others present. To be able to say the word âfriendâ from Jun Shilingâs mouth, that was not an ordinary relationship.
Bo Qing was about to say something when he saw that Jun Shiling had already started to pick up his chopsticks. It was obvious that he did not want to listen to him anymore, so he tactfully shut his mouth.
Mo Ling had just given a hint to the servant, so the servant brought Xia Wanyuan to the lowest-class guest table in the hall.
Now, as they looked at Jun Shiling sitting at the table, everyone was envious of the person sitting at the table.
âCEO Bo, is there anything else?â Jun Shiling glanced at Bo Qing, who felt his heart turn cold.
âCEO Jun, follow me to the main table and sit. You should sit in the main seat.â
âThereâs no need. CEO Bo, you should go back and sit. Itâs quite good for me to stay here.â Jun Shiling had asked him to leave, and it was not good for Bo Qing to stay here forever.
He gave Bo Xiao a look, but Bo Xiao acted as if he did not see anything and continued to serve Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan.
Bo Qing glared at Bo Xiao before turning to leave.
At this moment, the most remote corner in the hall had become the most eye-catching place.
No one paid attention to Mrs. Zheng or Mrs. Qin anymore.
No one cared about how outstanding Bo Yi was.
Everyone remembered that the main character of this banquet was the eldest young master of the Bo family, and this eldest young master had a very good relationship with Jun Shiling.
There were a few others sitting at Jun Shilingâs table. Seeing that they were actually sitting at the same table as Jun Shiling, everyone was very restrained. They only dared to put the food in their bowls and did not even dare to eat it, afraid that they would disturb the big shot in front of them.
The calmest people at the table were Xia Wanyuan and Bo Xiao.
Jun Shiling picked up a meatball and habitually wanted to put it in Xia Wanyuanâs bowl when his right leg was suddenly knocked by Xia Wanyuan.
Only then did Jun Shiling realize that he was not in the manor. He twisted his chopsticks and placed them in his bowl.
Just as Xia Wanyuan heaved a sigh of relief, she realized that her hand had been grabbed. Xia Wanyuan lowered her head calmly and saw that Jun Shiling was holding her hand.
The two of them sat adjacent to the wall with a tablecloth. No one else realized that there was such a scene under the tablecloth.
Jun Shiling held Xia Wanyuanâs hand with his right hand and the chopsticks with his left, making it very smooth.
Everyone looked around carefully and thought that Jun Shiling was left-handed.
Everyone cursed in their hearts. Everyone says that left-handed people are smarter. As expected.
In public, Jun Shiling kept holding her hand and even hooked her palm from time to time. As Xia Wanyuan ate, her face turned redder.
âMiss Xia, are you very hot?â Bo Xiao noticed Xia Wanyuanâs expression and asked.
âItâs nothing. Itâs a little spicy. Iâll be fine after drinking some water.â Xia Wanyuan forced Jun Shilingâs hand away, then gently knocked Jun Shiling with her left leg, hinting that he should not go overboard.
Jun Shiling received Xia Wanyuanâs warning and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. Only then did he eat quietly.
No one at the main table had finished their meal peacefully. Without Jun Shiling causing trouble, Xia Wanyuan ate very smoothly.
After the meal, Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan left some time later. However, Jun Shilingâs arrival made Bo Xiaoâs birthday banquet famous in Beijing.
Meanwhile, the various forces in Beijing also paid attention to the scene of the Bo familyâs Eldest Young Masterâs domineering return. The Bo family was probably going to become chaotic again.
ââ
Back then, when Xia Wanyuan promoted Hays potato chips, she had once helped promote a plum drink.
Later on, the plum drink had also looked for Xia Wanyuan to promote that green plum drink. Initially, that brand was not very large, but because it was indeed delicious, Xia Wanyuan helped to repost a publicity Weibo post, bringing a lot of sales to that shop.
This matter had originally been forgotten long ago, but in the past two days, a very famous large beverage company had directly sued this small company of plum drinks on the basis of a secret copyright infringement formula. Even when announcing it to the public, it had mentioned Xia Wanyuan.
Because of the CEO of Xiafeng Corporation, Xia Wanyuan had been very popular these few days. Now, she was directly involved in this dispute.
Chapter 388: Complaint Under the Moon
Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuanâs car returned to the manor one after another. Xiao Bao was squatting at the door waiting for them.
âMommy, you and Daddy snuck out again and you did not bring me.â Xia Wanyuan had just gotten out of the car when Xiao Bao hugged her leg. Xiao Baoâs eyes were filled with begs for comfort.
âThe places we went to today were for adults. There were no children to play with you. Itâs because of the interactions between adults that I didnât bring you there.â Although Xiao Bao was young, Xia Wanyuan treated him as an adult in many situations.
Xiao Bao was also very sensible. After hearing Xia Wanyuanâs explanation, he stopped arguing.
Xiao Baoâs schedule could be said to be especially disciplined. After pestering Xia Wanyuan to play games for a while, Xiao Bao was extremely tired. He hugged the little bear doll and fell into a deep sleep.
Although most people at the banquet did not eat much, Xia Wanyuan was definitely full without any baggage. She was very full and did not feel sleepy at all.
Feeling bored, Xia Wanyuan sat by the bed and gently poked Xiao Baoâs chubby little face. As if because Xia Wanyuan had gained Xiao Baoâs complete trust, Xia Wanyuan poked Xiao Bao a few times, but Xiao Bao did not react and slept especially soundly.
The childâs skin was good, and Xiao Baoâs fair and tender little face felt especially good when pinched. Xia Wanyuan could not help but pinch him a few more times.
When Jun Shiling pushed open the door, he saw Xia Wanyuan sitting by the bed and playfully pressing a small nest on Xiao Baoâs face.
Jun Shilingâs eyes were filled with smiles. He walked forward and grabbed Xia Wanyuanâs hand. âWhat did you do? You might wake him up.â
Xia Wanyuan blushed. I was very gentle, okay?
âCome down with me if you canât sleep,â Jun Shiling said as he pulled Xia Wanyuanâs hand and walked out of the bedroom.
Ever since Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan returned from Lin Xi City, anyone could tell how close Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan were. Uncle Wang also very tactfully removed all the people who had stayed in the main building to serve them.
At this moment, only Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan were in the main building, as well as Xiao Bao, who was already asleep.
âWhere are we going?â Xia Wanyuan could not help but ask as Jun Shiling led her out.
âI thought you canât sleep? Go out and sit for a while.â
It was summer now, and the lotus flowers in the lotus pond exuded a faint fragrance in the dark night.
There was a cooling sofa in the garden. Jun Shiling sat on the sofa while Xia Wanyuan lay on the sofa and leaned her head into Jun Shilingâs arms. Jun Shiling turned off the light in the garden. There was a moment of darkness in front of her, and Xia Wanyuan could not help but grip Jun Shiling tighter.
After her eyes adapted to the darkness, she saw a beautiful starry sky.
The moonlight was very bright tonight, and there were many stars. They covered the sky and earth, making Xia Wanyuan think of the night she had just arrived in the modern world.
That night, she watched the stars with Xiao Bao. The stars that night were as bright as today.
At that time, she was just a newbie in the alternate world. Someone who had no concept of anything and was incompatible with this era.
She did not expect that so many things would happen after two months, and she seemed to have found the meaning of being in this alternate world.
âWhat are you thinking about?â
Seeing that Xia Wanyuan looked at the stars and did not speak for a long time, Jun Shiling asked.
âJun Shiling, Iâve never asked you. Whatâs your first impression of me?â When Xia Wanyuan fell in love, she had the thoughts of an ordinary girl. She wanted to know how Jun Shiling thought of her.
âThe first time we met?â Jun Shilingâs eyes flickered. âBack then, you were eating at the dining table with Jun Yin. The first time I saw you, I felt that you were very beautiful.â
What Xia Wanyuan did not notice was that she was asking about her first impression, and Jun Shiling had directly defined his first impression in the restaurant in the half mountain villa.
âThen what happened after that? When did you like me?â Xia Wanyuan pressed.
âAfter that, I felt that you were good in every way and I fell in love with you unknowingly. If you want me to say when I fell in love with you.â Jun Shiling recalled for a while. âAt first glance at the restaurant.â
Just one look and those cool eyes settled into his heart and never left.
âAt first glance? You didnât know me at that time, so you fell for me?â Xia Wanyuan, who was never delicate outside, was pampered in front of Jun Shiling.
âNonsense.â Jun Shiling hugged Xia Wanyuan tighter. âItâs a glance for life. I also want to know when you fell for me.â
Hearing Jun Shilingâs question, Xia Wanyuan recalled. She actually did not know when she had fallen for Jun Shiling. It seemed that in every day, she was used to having Jun Shiling by her side and gradually made this person an indispensable part of her life.
âI donât know,â Xia Wanyuan said honestly.
âItâs okay.â Jun Shiling lowered his head and touched her forehead.
Itâs okay. It doesnât matter when it is. As long as you like me, thatâs enough.
Xia Wanyuan lay down and looked at the starry sky for a while. The starry sky in the dark night evoked her longing for her parents and friends in her previous life. A sour feeling surged in Xia Wanyuanâs heart.
It was unknown what Xia Wanyuan thought of, but she suddenly sat up and stretched out her arms towards Jun Shiling. âHug ~â
âMm, hug.â Jun Shiling smiled and pulled her into his arms. As if knowing that Xia Wanyuan was not in a good mood, he gently patted her back. âIâll be by your side forever.â
Jun Shiling rarely promised anything, but once he said something, he would do it.
This eternity was truly eternal and distant, one that would never give up on life and death.
âMm,â Xia Wanyuan replied gloomily.
âAlright, itâs getting late. Go to bed. You still have to film tomorrow.â Jun Shiling patted Xia Wanyuan and prepared to bring her back.
Xia Wanyuan was feeling depressed. She did not want to leave and hugged Jun Shilingâs waist without moving.
Jun Shiling smiled and looked at Xia Wanyuan, who was buried in his arms, not moving. A smile flashed across his eyes. âWhy are you acting coquettishly?â
Xia Wanyuan was already used to being pampered by Jun Shiling. Now that she was teased by Jun Shiling, she did not feel embarrassed. She tightened her grip on Jun Shilingâs waist. The faint pine fragrance on Jun Shilingâs body was very pleasant. In this summer day, it had a magical effect of calming oneâs emotions.
âYouâre so clingy.â Although Jun Shiling said that Xia Wanyuan was clingy, he loved seeing Xia Wanyuan being defenseless and completely dependent on him.
âMm,â Xia Wanyuan replied before continuing to bury her head in Jun Shilingâs arms and smell the faint fragrance on him.
Jun Shiling laughed. âIf youâre so clingy, I have a suggestion.â Jun Shiling spoke halfway as if he was deliberately seducing Xia Wanyuan. When Xia Wanyuan looked up, Jun Shiling continued.
âJun Yin is already asleep. Shall we sleep in the guest room tonight? Iâll let you stick to me for the entire night.â
Chapter 389: Real or Fake Thief
ââ¦â Xia Wanyuan was stunned for a moment. âYouâre reallyâ¦â
âI didnât say anything.â Jun Shiling picked her up by the waist and walked into the house. âWhat are you thinking? I just said that it was purely sleep.â
Xia Wanyuan took the opportunity to hug Jun Shilingâs neck and nestled in his arms. She gently hammered him to express her condemnation.
A smile appeared in Jun Shilingâs eyes as he steadily carried Xia Wanyuan back to the secondary bedroom.
After placing her on the bed, Jun Shiling lifted the blanket and fell asleep. Xia Wanyuan reached out to hug him habitually.
About a minute later, Xia Wanyuan realized that Jun Shiling was especially disciplined today. When he said sleep, it was really sleep.
Xia Wanyuan could not help but look up at Jun Shiling. Sensing the movement in her arms, Jun Shiling did not open his eyes and said quietly, âWhat are you looking forward to, my wife??â
âNo, Iâm sleeping.â Xia Wanyuan leaned back into Jun Shilingâs arms.
âI havenât been alone with you in a long time. I missed you.â Jun Shiling smiled and explained to Xia Wanyuan. âIf you have other requests, I can satisfy you.â
âNo.â Xia Wanyuanâs muffled voice came from her arms. Jun Shiling smiled and hugged her tighter. He planted a gentle kiss on her hair. âGoodnight, I love you.â
âGood night.â
The next morning, because Jun Shiling had actually kidnapped Xia Wanyuan and did not sleep with him, Xiao Bao unilaterally protested against Jun Shiling, but he was suppressed.
It took Xia Wanyuan a long time to coax the angry Xiao Bao and even personally send him to school.
Just as she was about to leave the schoolâs entrance, Xia Wanyuan received a call from Tang Yin. Only then did Xia Wanyuan know that something had happened to the plum drink.
However, speaking of which, this matter actually had nothing to do with Xia Wanyuan. After all, she had only helped promote it. At that time, she did not know that this was someone elseâs formula.
Xia Wanyuan searched online. Jiayin was a relatively famous beverage company in the country, and the plum drink she had helped promote was produced by a very small Bai Xiang company.
Jia Yin Corporation sued Bai Xiang in court and demanded that he return the formula and compensate for the relevant loss of 12 million dollars.
One was a beverage brand that could be seen everywhere on the famous dining table, and the other was an unknown company that made people suspect that it was a small company.
Everyone was more inclined to Jiayin from the bottom of their hearts, not to mention that Jiayin Corporation had presented a lot of evidence.
If not for Jia Yin mentioning Xia Wanyuan, no one would have noticed the dispute between the two beverage companies.
Xia Wanyuan did not pay much attention to it at first. After all, she had only helped promote it. If it was really a theft formula, there was nothing to pay attention to. It would be judged by the court.
However, not long after, Tang Yin called again and said that the studio had a package sent to Xia Wanyuan, asking if she wanted to go and get it.
Xia Wanyuan happened to pass by the studio on the way to the production team after sending Xiao Bao off, so she got the chauffeur to go to the studio first.
After the mineral water incident last time, Tang Yin and the rest did not dare to let Xia Wanyuan open the package herself. After all, it would be bad if something sent by the anti-fans frightened her.
Chen Yun made two especially long poles and slowly poked open the envelope. Inside was not something sent by anti-fans, but a box of drinks.
Chen Yun went forward to take a look. âHey, this is the plum drink from Bai Xiang that you helped promote last time.â
Xia Wanyuan walked over and took a look. It was filled with a box of exquisite plum drinks.
âThereâs still a letter here.â Tang Yin had sharp eyes and took out an ancient envelope from a gap at the side.
Tang Yin tore a hole first. After confirming that there was nothing strange inside, she handed it to Xia Wanyuan.
Xia Wanyuan took it and read it. It was a letter from Boss Bai Xiang.
This boss actually wrote with a brush and the words were especially beautiful.
âMiss Xia,
Hello, Iâm the boss of Bai Xiang Drink. Iâm very grateful for your free promotion back then. Iâm very sorry for affecting your reputation due to the dispute between Bai Xiang and Jiayin. Iâll send you a box of drinks here. I hope you donât mind. I guarantee with my many years of integrity that Bai Xiang has never done anything to steal other peopleâs recipes. Unfortunately, the other party has strong capital. Whether you believe me or not, Iâm very grateful for your love for my companyâs drinks.
I wish you all the best. â
âThis boss is still quite polite.â Tang Yin also saw the bossâs letter and sighed. Then, she looked at the time. âWanyuan, itâs time for you to film, right?â
âMm, Iâll go now.â Xia Wanyuan glanced at the drink on the ground. âHelp me put this in the car.â
During the break between filming, Xia Wanyuan got someone to buy a few bottles of Jiayin Corporationâs drinks from the supermarket and tried to drink them.
Modern people had drunk all kinds of drinks since they were young, so they were not that sensitive to differentiating the taste.
In the Xia Dynasty, there were not so many industrial skills. It was all thanks to the hands of the imperial chef.
Xia Wanyuan was very sensitive to the subtle differences in the taste. She tasted a few drinks that were delicious. The fragrance was indeed very rich and sweet, but when it entered her mouth, it seemed a little greasy.
Furthermore, after swallowing it, other than the sweet fragrance lingering in his mouth, there was nothing else that made her reminisce.
As for Bai Xiangâs drink, when it first entered his mouth, it had a faint fragrance of plums. It was neither sweet nor greasy. It really seemed to be written on the packaging and made of handmade raw materials. There was no additives in it, so it was especially refreshing.
After swallowing it, more and more sweetness surged into his mouth, making one want to drink another mouthful.
Xia Wanyuan looked at the plum drink that Boss Bai Xiang had sent over and was in deep thought. Then she called Shen Qian.
ââ
In Bai Xiang Corporation.
âBoss, we really have no choice. Jiayin is such a big corporation. The lawyers are too amazing.â
The legal department of the company flipped through the information in his hand. This boss was too unguarded. He actually let the companyâs trusted aide take the original version of the formula and sell it to Jiayin Corporation.
How were they going to fight a lawsuit now?? Jiayin had a lawyers team of dozens standing behind him, while Bai Xiang was alone. This was simply a death trap.
âIt was originally a recipe left behind by our ancestor. I originally wanted to make something good so that the public could enjoy better drinks. Now that things have turned out like this, thereâs nothing I can do. Iâll get someone to come over tomorrow and pay everyone their salaries. Itâs been hard on everyone in the past few years. I, Han Xu, thank everyone here.â
Bai Xiangâs boss, Han Xu, stood up and bowed to the people in the meeting room with a tired expression.
After he sold this company, he would return to his hometown in the mountains to farm. In the end, this prosperous world was still superficial. Han Xu, who was pure and straightforward, hated Jiayinâs accusations very much, but he had no choice.
Just as everyone was immersed in their thoughts, the secretary suddenly came in and reported, âCEO Han, Miss Xia outside wants to see you.â
Chapter 390: The Princess Acquires Bai Xiang Company
âMiss??â Han Xu was stunned.
His brother-in-law, who was sitting on the right, was already frowning. Han Xu was afraid that this brother-in-law would go back and talk nonsense to his sister, so he hurriedly looked at the secretary. âBring her in and come to this meeting room.â
âAlright.â
Han Xu thought that he did not know any woman with the surname Xia. He was usually busy with work and would research in the factory whenever he had time. He did not interact with clients either. On Weibo, the person with the surname Xia that he had interacted with was that big celebrity, Xia Wanyuan.
However, he only felt that he had let her down and caused trouble for her, so he wrote a letter to her. However, he was not sure if it could be sent. After all, Xia Wanyuan was a big celebrity. How could she care about him?
As Han Xu was thinking, the sound of high heels hitting the ground came from outside the door.
âMiss Xia, please come in.â The secretary opened the door and walked into an extremely beautiful woman with a very handsome man following behind her.
The employees in the room instantly fell silent and looked at Xia Wanyuan, who was standing at the door, in amazement.
They had also seen Xia Wanyuan promote their product on the live-stream, but she was clearly much better looking in person than on the video, even if she was already very beautiful on the video.
âMiss Xia?â Han Xu was the first to recover from his shock. He walked towards Xia Wanyuan in surprise. âWhy are you in our small company?â
âHello, CEO Han.â Xia Wanyuan nodded at Han Xu.
âHello, hello. Please sit here,â Han Xu said as he led Xia Wanyuan to the seat in front and sat down. âMay I know why you are here, Ms. Xia?â
Han Xu thought that Xia Wanyuan might have come to ask them for compensation because her reputation had been tainted by Bai Xiang. Han Xu thought about his assets and sighed. It was better to sell my precious watch as an apology gift.
âI came here this time to discuss the acquisition with CEO Han.â Xia Wanyuan did not beat around the bush and directly revealed her intentions.
âAcquisition?!!â Not only did Han Xu not expect this, but no one present did either. Everyone looked at Xia Wanyuan in shock.
âYes, acquisition.â Xia Wanyuan gestured for Shen Qian to hand the contract to Han Xu. âThis is the acquisition plan. You can take a look and then weâll discuss the relevant matters.â
Han Xu took the document and flipped through it. His eyes were filled with disbelief. He quickly read it and handed it to the legal staff of the company.
The legal staff looked through the documents carefully and nodded at Han Xu. âNo problem.â
Han Xu was even more confused. The document just now could be said to be very generous.
Although it was an acquisition, he could actually get 40 shares. Furthermore, after the acquisition, the arrangements, treatment, and salary of the employees of the company could not be better.
âMiss Xia, although Iâm the boss of Bai Xiang, I want to say this too. Arenât you afraid of losing money by acquiring such a proposal? After all, weâre a small company thatâs about to go bankrupt.â
Since Han Xu had no intention of continuing to operate the company, he spoke very directly.
âIâm not afraid of losing money. I believe in Bai Xiangâs value. As for going bankrupt? Xiafeng Corporation will send a legal team to help resolve the dispute. If you have no objections, the shareholders of Bai Xiang should be present today, right? Everyone can vote directly and come to a final conclusion.â
