Ariel was curious about these street foods, too.Having only experienced top-tier dining in Zhongjing, she’d never tasted such roadside delicacies before.After trying just a few, she became immediately overjoyed.Shortly thereafter, her hands were full, juggling three or four snacks at once, munching away like a little girl.“That’s more like it, Miss Ariel, you’re young and beautiful, the perfect age to enjoy the best years of youth.Being all tense and intimidating might be cool, but it’s not adorable.When you try to act cute, it also lacks a bit of innocence,” Bai Xiaosheng said with a laugh.Ariel rolled her eyes at him and continued to feast.They reached the end of the pedestrian street.Bai Xiaosheng came to a stop and said to Ariel with a smile, “Miss Ariel, you’ve walked the street, you’ve tasted the snacks, it’s time to go back now, isn’t it?”Ariel ignored Bai Xiaosheng, finishing the last spicy fish ball with relish and elegantly wiping her delicate lips with a moist tow

For Bai Xiaosheng, it seemed almost everyone around him was an “enemy”—no support, no backup, and those people were even plotting to trip him up.Trying to make it happen on his own was just too hard.Bai Xiaosheng decided to seek some external help.But whose help to seek and how to seek it?These were the questions!Resorting to external help meant nothing more than “coercion and bribery,” at most adding a bit of negotiation.Coercion meant finding a more powerful force to intimidate Kelson and force them to compromise and concede.But clearly, that was unlikely to succeed.Kelson’s headquarters were far overseas, and it was an independent company—intimidation wouldn’t reach them.Finding a mediator for negotiation was also out of the question, as although Bai Xiaosheng didn’t have a deep grudge with Kelson, because of the whole Ron Team affair, he had offended Kevin deeply.How could he expect someone to make amends with just a few words?Chen Jiuzheng might have the capability, bu

After all, Bai Xiaosheng was “a friend of the Lu Family” according to Lu Qingfeng.Bai and Lu had just behaved like brothers, and Wang Chao did not dare to show any disrespect.“This time, I would like to ask Uncle Wang to help negotiate some cooperation with a company in Europe—Kelson Corporation, with the objective of having them sign a smooth contract with Zhongjing Media I work for without imposing any additional conditions.”Bai Xiaosheng explained the situation that could be shared in detail to Wang Chao.Wang Chao nodded frequently as he listened.To think that using the Lu Family’s cooperation as a bargaining chip would make the other party concede in other cooperations.This seemed somewhat preposterous!The key point was, Mr.Lu had actually agreed…Wang Chao found it inconceivable.However, he did not show any surprise on his face, instead, he listened attentively and occasionally asked questions with seriousness.“This matter is not difficult to handle in operation.Kelson

Bai Xiaosheng and Miss Ariel had agreed to have dinner together the next day.Miss Ariel insisted on being the host to express her gratitude for Mr.Bai Xiaosheng’s life-saving grace.Mr.Bai Xiaosheng didn’t fuss about such matters; after all, neither of them was short of money—the key was to sit down and have a talk.“If possible, please convey a message to Mr.Kevin privately,” Mr.Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile, taking out a business card and tearing off a corner to give to Ariel.“Just say I have a friend who would like to discuss cooperation with Kelson.”He emphasized the word “privately” heavily, trusting that a woman as gentle and virtuous, as shrewd and incomparable as Ariel, would understand.“I understand, I will definitely pass the message,” Ariel said with a smile, her eyes lingering on Mr.Bai Xiaosheng.Even though she owed him a debt for saving her life, it seemed that Mr.Bai Xiaosheng did not want to use this favor to force Kelson into making any concessions.This

It was a corner torn from a business card, quite irregular, with no words on it, just a pattern.This pattern was a company’s LOGO—it represented the Tengyun Group!A Fortune Global 500 company, a media giant among the top fifty—Tengyun Group!Being in the same industry, how could Kevin not recognize it!“Did Bai Xiaosheng give this to you?!” Kevin asked in surprise.Ariel nodded.Combining what Ariel had said with this small piece of paper, it was clear that Bai Xiaosheng was telling him that his friend—a person from Tengyun Group—wanted to talk to him about cooperation!Did Bai Xiaosheng still have connections in Tengyun Group?Kevin flipped the small piece of paper, frowning slightly.Bai Xiaosheng should know that even if he had friends in a large group like Tengyun, it wouldn’t be anything remarkable.If the rank wasn’t high enough, he, the prestigious Mr.Kelson, would not care either!Unless, his this friend…had a high enough status to negotiate with him as an equal!Did Bai X

Wang Chao, he is the Executive Vice President of the network media business group under Tengyun Group!”Kevin actually knew Wang Chao’s position even better than Bai Xiaosheng, as he introduced him to his sister, Ariel.“Mr.Wang, it’s a pleasure!” Ariel’s eyes gleamed brightly as she smiled and shook hands with Wang Chao.“A pleasure,” Wang Chao returned the smile.Kevin’s smile was enthusiastic as he said to Wang Chao, “I had the honor of seeing you at a cocktail party once, and your speech was truly amazing!It had a great impact on me personally!I didn’t expect to be meeting you today!”Kevin was secretly astonished.Thank goodness he had come!Bai Xiaosheng’s status was nothing short of extraordinary!One must know that under Tengyun Group, there are several business groups, each with heavyweight Executive Vice Presidents.And this Wang Chao was one of them!A look of shock flickered through Ariel’s beautiful eyes.She had not anticipated Bai Xiaosheng to have such formidable co

The words were black on white, unmistakably clear.Kevin was overjoyed, and Ariel was also very happy.The value of the contract was immeasurable for them; they were even willing to forego all cooperation with Chen Jiuzheng, even at the risk of offending him!Not to mention, Wang Chao had only attached one condition that was hardly worth mentioning!Cancel the additional conditions for Zhongjing Media?What was that?“If Mr.Bai is willing, we can invest another fifteen percent in our cooperation with Zhongjing Media, or even reduce the terms of the cooperation!” Kevin said eagerly.This was a strong gesture of goodwill!“No need, the original contract is fine,” Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.The task involved additional conditions, which were unrelated to the original terms.Kevin nodded and didn’t insist any further.Now, the way Kevin and Ariel looked at Bai Xiaosheng had changed.To get them to stop giving Zhongjing Media a hard time, Bai Xiaosheng had actually brought in a frie

They stared blankly at each other for a long while, unable to recover their senses.How could this be possible!Why had Kelson’s Kevin come in person, and why had he suddenly signed?!They had clearly agreed to set a trap, yet he had suddenly changed his mind, and what’s more, when had Kevin become so generous, not demanding a single additional condition?Even more absurd was the fact that they hadn’t been given any hint, leaving them completely unprepared!Hadn’t Kevin been full of resentment before, wanting to deal with Bai Xiaosheng…His attitude had suddenly done a complete one-eighty, the turn was so sharp that it threw Song Changkong and the others into a ditch…“That Ariel went out with Bai Xiaosheng and so much happened when they returned; could it be that woman really fell for Bai Xiaosheng?”Song Changkong couldn’t help but say.Chen Changqing had no time for jokes and hurried off to make a phone call to Chen Jiuzheng.As soon as the call connected, Chen Jiuzheng’s voice was

The additional conditions proposed by Kelson Corporation for this signing are zero!”“The mission has ended successfully, with the highest level of completion, scoring twenty points!”“The current total score is seventy-five points for the Deputy General Manager level, only twenty-five points away from the General Manager level!”In Bai Xiaosheng’s mind, a series of prompts made him so happy he couldn’t stop grinning.All his busy efforts hadn’t been in vain, as he watched his score jump higher and higher.It was truly exhilarating!Now, just twenty-five points away from the General Manager level, promotion truly seemed just around the corner!Bai Xiaosheng was in high spirits.Compared to him, Song Changkong and Chen Changqing were completely thrown into disarray.The two of them were utterly confused about what had transpired, almost deeming it a supernatural event.They had thought that the contract was facilitated because Bai Xiaosheng had some connection with Ariel, but after the

How could he possibly be frightened by Mr.Kevin’s vague words and hesitate to take action against Bai Xiaosheng, or lose his composure and act irrationally due to a provocation from Chen Changqing?At most, Chen Jiuzheng was somewhat dubious and hesitant.Chen Changqing’s timely instigation, a nudge that added momentum, simply revitalized his existing intention to deal with Bai Xiaosheng.“It’s actually better that Mr.Kevin won’t join.With him involved, we would have had to consider his stance, which would have been a hassle!” Chen Jiuzheng snorted coldly and asked Chen Changqing, “Exactly how did you and Song Changkong plan to take back the authority from Bai Xiaosheng?”In the past, Chen Jiuzheng didn’t pay much attention to details, but now that he was intrigued, he naturally had to inquire.Changqing brightened up, knowing his Uncle held a significant position and had a thorough understanding of the corporate landscape.If his Uncle helped with the planning and oversaw the proc
