Chapter 133: Creating Pressure

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Now that Lin Bai suddenly said that Ling Xuewei wasn’t that kind of person, Sun Xiaogang had some difficulty accepting it.

He was silent for a long time.

In the end, he was still biased towards Lin Bai.

He believed that the boss he trusted would not side with outsiders.

Since Lin Bai said so, he must have his reasons.

“Yes, Boss, I believe in you.” Sun Xiaogang said.

What he meant was that regardless of whether Lin Bai let Ling Xuewei go in the end or even dealt with Ling Xuewei together, he believed that Lin Bai would be on his side.

When Lin Bai heard Sun Xiaogang’s words, the stone that had been weighing on his heart for the past few days was finally lifted.

Previously, he had been worried that if Sun Xiaogang insisted on not forgiving Ling Xuewei, the cooperation between him and Ling Xuewei would continue to be discussed or not.

Although earning money was important, Lin Bai still cared more about his brother’s feelings.

Now that Sun Xiaogang was so sensible, Lin Bai did not need to worry about anything anymore. He just needed to do what he needed to do.

After the heavy burden in his heart had been relieved, Lin Bai sent a message to Ling Xuewei and asked her, “I didn’t have time to discuss the Yunding Villa project last time. When can we talk about it in detail?”

He didn’t directly ask about Assistant Wang, nor did he ask Ling Xuewei to fire Assistant Wang just because he had treated Ling Xuewei’s mother’s illness.

It was because Lin Bai believed that even if all the factors were excluded, just the Yunding Villa project alone was enough to make Ling Xuewei unable to refuse.

When the cooperation was finalized in all aspects, he would add the condition of firing Assistant Wang as an additional clause of the cooperation. He believed that Ling Xuewei wouldn’t refuse.

Wang was just an assistant. It was impossible for Ling Xuewei to give up a slice of the pie that was big as Yunding Villa for him.

Lin Bai was full of confidence, so he was not in a hurry. He could wait for the time to be ripe.

Ling Xuewei quickly recovered.

She said, “I have to accompany my mom for a full body check-up today. I don’t have time. Can I do it tomorrow?”

Tomorrow was the weekend.

Lin Bai’s lips curled into a silent smile because he knew that he already had the upper hand in this cooperation negotiation.

Ling Xuewei was willing to sacrifice her weekend break to finalize the details of the cooperation with him as soon as possible.

This was enough to show how much she wanted to achieve this cooperation.

“You exposed your needs first. Don’t blame me for ripping you off when the time comes.”

Lin Bai looked at the message on his phone screen and muttered to himself.

Regardless of whether it was a business collaboration or some other relationship model, the person who exposes his needs first was destined to be the loser.

Lin Bai deliberately pretended to be troubled. After a while, he replied, “The schedule for tomorrow is already full. I can’t spare any time. How about next Monday?”

Ling Xuewei replied almost instantly.

“Okay. Next Monday morning at 10 o’clock.”

Lin Bai replied with an ‘OK’ emoji. The next negotiation time was settled on just like that.

Then, he dug out the information he had previously checked and sent a message to the bosses of Hengsheng Real Estate and Xuyang Real Estate companies, inviting them to have coffee and play golf.

Although Lin Bai had already excluded them in his heart and had no intention of handing over the sales of Yunding Villa to them.

However, it was still okay to put on a show for Ling Xuewei and create a sense of crisis for her at the same time.

Lin Bai believed that since Ling Xuewei could manage Soaring Phoenix Real Estate to its current scale, it was impossible for her to be a person with limited information.

She would definitely have a way to grasp the movements of the other companies in the industry, especially those that were on the same level as hers.

Therefore, the news of Lin Bai contacting the bosses of Hengsheng and Xuyang would definitely reach Ling Xuewei’s ears very soon.

After about half a day, Hengsheng Real Estate replied.

Their boss agreed to meet Lin Bai for a cup of coffee and listen to him promote his cooperation plan.

Then, Xuyang Real Estate also replied to Lin Bai, but they rejected his invitation.

Lin Bai originally did not intend to really cooperate with them so it did not matter if he was rejected.

He just pretended to be very serious and arranged the clothes he was going to wear the next day in the dormitory in advance. He also rehearsed his lines in his head.

Although it was just an act, he had to make it seem as genuine as possible.

When this news reached Ling Xuewei’s ears, the nervousness she created was also stronger.

Everything was prepared. The next day at noon, Lin Bai arrived on time for the appointment.

He used the lines that he had prepared beforehand, and in a very short period of time, he displayed all the advantages of the Yunding Villa.

At the same time, he also revealed his own personal charm.

Xu Yang Real Estate’s boss, Chen Xuyang, did not take this appointment seriously at first.

But after he listened to Lin Bai’s explanation, not only did he have a strong interest in the Yunding Villa project, he was also very interested in Lin Bai himself.

“Mr. Lin, I am personally very interested in the appearance of this Yunding Villa.”

“I wonder if you have other similar properties?”

The meaning behind Chen Xuyang’s words was very obvious.

If there were, he wanted to take it together.

Anyway, with Xuyang Real Estate’s strength, he believed that he could take it.

Lin Bai pretended to be regretful and said, “No, I only have Yunding Villa now.”

Chen Xuyang said, “That’s fine too. Yunding Villa is enough. There are too many people here. Why don’t we go to the company to talk about it?”

Lin Bai smiled and said, “Another day. I’m going to have a meal with a friend this afternoon. Later, I’ll set aside a day to slowly finalize all the details with you, Mr. Chen.”

Chen Xuyang nodded and said, “Alright, let’s meet another day.”

Not long after Lin Bai left, Ling Xuewei received a message. She knew that he had met Chen Xuyang and they had a good conversation.

When Ling Xuewei received the message, she was in the hospital waiting for the results of her physical examination with her mother.

The moment the message was sent, her expression changed.

Wei Xinyue, who was sitting next to her, saw the situation and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong? is the physical examination report out?”

“Tell me the truth. Did you find out something serious? If that’s really the case, then we won’t get treatment for me. Anyway, when I see that you’re doing well, I’ll feel at ease. There’s nothing that she can’t let go of…”

Ling Xuewei didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as she interrupted her.

“Mom, you’re thinking too much. The report isn’t out yet.”

“Then why do you look so troubled?”

Wei Xinyue stared at Ling Xuewei’s face, not letting go of her expression.

Ling Xuewei could only explain, “It’s a work matter. One of my collaborations might not be as smooth as expected.”

When Wei Xinyue heard that it was a work matter, she was no longer anxious.

She said, “I don’t understand your work matters, and I can’t help you much either.. You can only solve it yourself.”
