Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon’s Sweetheart - Chapter 44

Chapter 44: Chapter 44 Are You Done Talking?

“As the price for the resources you gain.”

“Isn’t that price too steep?”

“You can disagree.”

Bo Tingshen pushed back the teacup in front of him, his calm, handsome face leaving no room for negotiation.

“Think it over.”

How was she to think it over?

She didn’t understand the ways of business. Whether a partnership with him resulted in profit or loss was completely in his control, wasn’t it?

“CEO…”

“I will not compromise.”

She hadn’t even spoken, and Bo Tingshen had already countered.

“Then, may I propose a condition?”

“You may not.”

Ye Xian, “…” This man was far too domineering!

The man’s well-defined fingers tapped slowly and deliberately on the round Japanese table, like a leopard in the jungle patient enough to seize its prey.

Ye Xian gritted her teeth. Her second brother had been right; Bo Tingshen was indeed a ruthless, cunning businessman! He knew how important these resources were to her, that she couldn’t just give them up, and he exploited this fact to achieve his own ends!

That’s despicable! And she had actually started to think he was a decent, generous person!

Bo Tingshen, seeing the resentment and anger written on her face, seemed to relax, appearing in a good mood, “Or is it that you don’t even have that much capability? President Ye once paid a 50 million deposit to get you into FOR.”

“Did you research me, CEO?”

“It’s common knowledge.”

He clearly thought that Ye Shaowen was her financial backer, so he was threatening to use her.

A CEO of Bo Group, resorting to such despicable tactics! One would wonder how he had accumulated his vast wealth!

Ye Xian silently cursed his ancestors eighteen generations deep in her heart.

“Have you decided?”

“Wait, let me think a bit more…”

Bo Group had immense power and substantial assets and didn’t need to coerce her for a mere platform fee. It seemed they truly wanted to collaborate with Zero Degree, using her fame merely as a means to their end. Her second brother had refused to cooperate with Bo Group because of her, but setting that aside, wouldn’t a partnership between Bo Group and Zero Degree be mutually beneficial? Or was Bo Tingshen setting a trap for her?

Who cares, she couldn’t let the cooked duck fly away. She’d agree first and then ask her brother if it was worth it. If it was, she would sign the contract. If not, then she would act as if the deal had never happened.

“I… agree, but you must personally call Director Li to let me join the group.”

“The message has already been sent.”

The man’s phone showed that the message had been sent ten minutes earlier.

That quick?

Didn’t that leave her no room for regret?

So, had he anticipated the outcome before this negotiation even began?

Ye Xian had never seen someone so arrogant and presumptuous, the anger almost made her choke on the spot.

But considering he belonged to an echelon of society she could never reach, it was somewhat comforting as she staggered to her feet.

“President Bo, I will do what I promised you. Let’s call it even today, but such things must not happen again. I have no relationship with President Ye of Zero Degree as you imagine. Also, I hope you won’t restrict my resources anymore. I have long since lost interest in your brother Jiang Wanze and will not obsess over him as before, so there is no need for you to go out of your way to trouble me! Moreover, since you look down on me, I will prove in this group that any project I’m involved in will be a hit!”

Ye Xian stepped up to him, like a provoked little wild cat, showing sharp claws and sternly warning him from a commanding height.

“Are you done?”

Bo Tingshen’s dark eyes narrowed slightly, the corners revealing a hint of danger.

“Yes, I am.”

Ye Xian, seeing his imperious demeanor despite being seated while she stood, swallowed hard. Why did it still feel like his presence was overpoweringly stronger than hers?

“Goodbye!”

To avoid this unpredictable mogul from suddenly turning hostile and killing her, Ye Xian turned and ran.

Bo Tingshen watched her gradually disappearing figure, his eyes murky and unclear.

No such relationship?
