My Billionaire Exhusband Grovels Me After Divorce - Chapter 395
Chapter 395: Chapter 395: Lu Lingche’s Face Blindness
If she weren’t currently working for Dongfang Mu, she would definitely retort.
But Cui Shuqian may marry Dongfang Mu, so she doesn’t say anything to avoid offending his future wife.
After apologizing to Qiao Yin, Cui Shuqian turns to apologize to Dongfang Mu, “I’m sorry, Young Master Mu. I shouldn’t comment on your relationship with your assistant. However, our families are in marriage talks, so I couldn’t help myself and overstepped.”
Dongfang Mu, lounging on the sofa, says, “Hatchetfish, whatever you want to discuss with me, just speak up. I still need to take my afternoon nap.”
“Well, Wanann is my uncle. He currently negotiates with Shengling Group about an acquisition. You know about this, right?”
“I do. So what of it?”
“His finance company got hit with a hacker attack these past two days. Did you have someone make that happen?”
“Of course not, this has absolutely nothing to do with me. Don’t be like Lu Lingche, trying to sling mud at me.”
Cui Shuqian frowns, “Are you sure it wasn’t you?”
Dongfang Mu looks serious, “I am sure.”
His acting skills are impressive, but unfortunately, Cui Shuqian isn’t buying it. “If you don’t admit, that’s fine too. However, I need you to stop whatever it is you’re doing. Regardless of your actions, Wanann Finance will be acquired by Shengling Group. My uncle will not agree to your acquisition.”
Dongfang Mu teases, “You seem to be quite biased towards Shengling Group! I’ve heard that the Cui Family has also been in touch with the Lu Family recently, seeming to have intentions for an alliance. Is that true? The Cui Family, stringing me along on one hand and Lu Lingche on the other, appetites as large as can be. Aren’t you afraid of choking yourself to death?”
Cui Shuqian doesn’t know how this news leaked out, but she promptly refutes, “The rumors are false. Our family just has a good relationship with the Lu Family. We’ve only ever talked about marriage with your family, nothing else.” “That’s fine, an alliance with the Lu Family isn’t a bad idea. After all, our families may have intentions, but you look down on me, and I don’t fancy you. It’s doomed from the start. Lu Lingche and I are different. I’m a looks-person whereas Lingche has face-blindness. He can’t distinguish between beauty and ugliness, so I’m sure you’ll be very happy together.”
Even though Cui Shuqian also thinks so, she doesn’t admit this orally.
“Young Master Mu, our topic was diverted a bit. Right now, I want to discuss Wanann Finance with you. I hope you could show mercy and let my uncle’s acquisition with Shengling Group proceed smoothly.”
“But, the Eastern Empire also wants to acquire Wanann Finance. Plus, we have a higher offer and superior team. So, why don’t you want us to do the acquisition?”
Cui Shuqian falls silent.
Because she indeed plans on an alliance with Lu Lingche. She wants Wanann Finance to be incorporated into the Shengling Group. In this way, she will have her own power within the Shengling Group in the future.
“Mainly because my uncle has already reached an agreement with Shengling Group. Your sudden interference is making things difficult for my uncle. Both Shengling Group and the Lu Family are forces to be reckoned with. My uncle does not want to offend either, so that’s why he sent me to negotiate with you.” “So, Miss Cui, are you implying that both the Eastern Empire Group and Dongfang Family are insignificant? Your uncle isn’t afraid of offending me, only afraid of offending Lu Lingche, is that right?”
“That’s not what I meant. Don’t twist my words…”
“Cui Shuqian, acquiring Wanann Finance is not a decision I made alone, it’s a strategic deployment by the group. I cannot back down lightly.”
Dongfang Mu smiles gently while he says, “Wanann foolishly asked you to negotiate with me. No wonder his company’s performance is worsening, to the point where it’s on the verge of being acquired.. What made him think I would listen to you? Are you a rare beauty once in thousand years? Or my woman?”
