Mr. Xiao's Unconditional Love - Chapter 84
Chapter 84: A Successful Negotiation
Beixiao’s dad put down his cup on the table and looked at Beixiao, who was sitting on the black sofa, as he said seriously, “I wanted to talk to you about going to Hunter School! Beixiao, this isn’t a joke!”
Hunter School was Planet X’s well-known Special Operations training center, with an acceptance rate of 20%. Death was a common sight, but it was the hall of fame that all the world’s top Special Operations officers wanted to join. Needless to say, it was hell in its truest form.
“I am not joking around!” Beixiao replied as he stood up and headed towards the desk.
He knew his son well. The men of the Lu family would never give in.
Lu Zhen Sheng stopped persuading his son. He had confidence in Beixiao, and he believed that the training would prepare him well for what would come.
He stood up and said solemnly, “Beixiao, I wish you success in advance! Take some time to learn Planet X’s language before going; it is going to be hard if you can’t speak their language!”
Lu Beixiao did not say anything about this matter; instead, he just replied with a salute.
“Dad, you should start caring about the marriages of the old single senior commanders,” the atmosphere between these two relaxed again, and Beixiao did not forget to “care” about Lao Cai.
“Are you talking about Squadron Cai? We haven’t had match-making events for a while… I will get the team to arrange something!” Beixiao’s dad replied.
Beixiao nodded and walked out of the office. He found it funny and could not wait to see the reserved Lao Cai be in a relationship. Then, he jumped into his car and headed off.

The parties were sitting on each side of the meeting table in a meeting room that could oversee the whole of N Town.
Du Jun, who was sitting in the chief place, was dressed fashionably. His hair was combed to the back, and was wearing his grey suit. He looked exactly like a chairperson but pretended to be unwell so that Ye Qiao could speak on this behalf.
“Mr. Jiang, 30% share is the lowest we can go. We really can’t make any further concessions!” After the bargain just now, Jiang Hengshan reduced their share percentage to 20%, but Ye Qiao asked for 35%, and he did not agree. They were trying to increase their shares to 30%.
“25%!” Jiang Hengshan counter-offered. This little girl was truly too difficult to deal with.
He got someone to look into her background over the past two days and realized that she was still a high school student!
“25%. It’s my final offer!” Jiang Hengshan pulled his tie as he said again. This was the first time he lost in a negotiation!
Ye Qiao tried to hide her joy. In fact, 25% was 5% higher than she originally expected. Nevertheless, she still acted like it was her loss. “Mr. Du, what’s your thought?”
“I disagree! I don’t like the number 25!” Ye Qiao told Du Jun that he could only nod or shake his head, but Du Jun replied loudly this time.
Ye Qiao was speechless.
Jiang Hengshan shrugged and looked at him. “Mr. Du, how much do you think would be appropriate?”
Ye Qiao quickly kicked Du Jun’s foot as she was worried that this idiot would offer a lower percentage!
“I would like twenty… six! It sounds better!” Du Jun said. Ye Qiao’s heart was already in her throat. Fortunately, he was not that stupid to lower the offer.
“Mr. Jiang, we all want to start our business on a good note; it would be great if you could offer us 1% more!” Ye Qiao replied with a smile.
Jiang Hengshan, who was still gloomy, could not help but smile. “I surrender! It feels like we are bargaining in a market!”
Ye Qiao’s heart tightened; did he want to reject the offer?
“It’s my first time having to actually negotiate! And with a little girl, nonetheless!” Jiang Hengshan extended his arm to Ye Qiao as he stood up. Ye Qiao immediately stood up too.
Mr. Jiang said happily, “I hope we will work well together!”
So, 26% of the share was in their pocket!
Ye Qiao quickly came back to her senses and bowed 90 degrees. “Mr. Jiang, I hope we will work well together too!”
Chapter 85: Future Mother-In-Law
When Ye Qiao suggested holding a press conference for their contract-signing ceremony, Jiang Hengshan liked this little girl even more.
How could she understand so much about marketing at such a young age!? He knew that it was not Du Jun’s idea; in fact, he knew that Du Jun was just Ye Qiao’s puppet in the negotiations.
This little girl was the one crafting their entire strategy.
The signing ceremony went smoothly, as expected. All the major media companies were present, and Jiang Hengshan and Du Jun were both interviewed. However, Ye Qiao did not show herself. She was still a student, and it was not convenient for her to show up, so all the credit was given to Du Jun. What she really wanted was 13% of the shares anyway!
Du Jun’s script was all written by her, word for word. He took a long time to get them memorized, but at least, this idiot was not that bad at acting. In fact, he looked very professional in front of the cameras!

The news about Jiang Hengshan’s investment in N Town’s business district attracted attention from all over the world. Immediately after, he signed another contract with a foreign business group to build an international shopping mall. The construction was expected to start at the end of the year, and the demolition work would be carried out in the near future.
Although the real estate industry was not doing so well, these two bosses’ move had caused a stir in the industry.
Some people doubted them while others remained neutral. However, those who had a great sense of business already started looking for opportunities around the place.
In this era, the average house price in this city was only 200 yuan per square meter. Of course, an ordinary worker’s monthly salary was only 200 yuan, but, 20 years later, what would be the house price in this area? Even 50,000 would not be enough for a square foot!
Ye Qiao stood in front of the window, looking at the quiet downtown. Her mind was full of imagination of the town’s prosperous scene many years later.
“Qiao Qiao! Qiao Qiao!”
The idiotic uncle’s joyous voice could be heard. She turned around and saw him with his phone in his hand; his face was just as excited as a silly child.
“Qiao Qiao! I love you so much!” Du Jun said as he extended his arms and picked her up. The man even spun in a circle. Ye Qiao was ‘flattered’!
Nevertheless, this guy was obviously looking for his death! If Xiao knew that Du Jun hugged her, he would have killed Du Jun.
The idiot finally put her down, but he still looked enraptured. Du Jun’s phone rang again. “Who is calling over to praise me again!?” He said while putting the phone on speaker.
“Jun Jun, it’s your sister…”
Sister?
Was that not Ms. Du?!
Her future mother-in-law!?
Ye Qiao’s heart could not help but skip a beat after hearing Du Ying’s voice. In her previous life, the person she feared the most was her mother-in-law!
“Du Ying, you called just at the right time; I am now with your future…” Hearing what Du Jun said, Ye Qiao hurriedly kicked him and hinted Du Jun not to say anything about her.
In her previous life, Ms. Du had always disagreed on her marriage with Beixiao. First of all, even though she was from the Ye Family, she was still an illegitimate child, so it was not good for their reputation. Also, she began to have a sexual relationship with Beixiao when she got drunk at the bar, so the arrogant Du Ying suspected that she approached Beixiao with hidden intentions!
Unfortunately for her, Ye Qiao was already pregnant, so the Lu Family had no choice but to let them get married.
However, even after they got married, she was always around Shen Xichuan, which made Ms. Du even more unhappy about her.
“Du Ying, could you not doubt your brother’s ability?” Du Ying was just like the other family members; she praised Du Jun first and then asked if there was someone helping him out. Since Du Jun could not mention Ye Qiao’s name, he pretended that it was all his efforts.
He only knew that this little girl had done something big for him after his family called from all over to praise him; otherwise, perhaps he would have had no idea!
Du Ying could not believe that he had this ability! Which expert did her stupid brother meet? Even though she had been in business for 20 years, she never thought that the piece of land would have so much value!
“Qiao, why don’t you let me tell people that you are the one helping me? That was your future mother-in-law!” After Du Jun hung up the phone, he looked at Ye Qiao and asked in confusion.
