Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 2203: Chapter 1678: So It Was You!

As soon as Ye Liena entered, she fixed her gaze on Bai Xiaosheng, not only because, amidst the room full of people, he sat there with an air of pompous confidence, but also because she found him increasingly familiar, yet couldn’t recall where they had met before.

The more she couldn’t remember, the more Ye Liena tried to recall, her beautiful eyes wandering over Bai Xiaosheng.

Until others noticed the scene.

Melanie also frowned at Bai Xiaosheng.

This man sat there so firmly; when they came in, even Taylor had to greet them with a smiling face and polite words, yet he didn’t even stand up—so arrogant and rude!

Under the watchful eyes of the two women, Bai Xiaosheng smiled at them, warmly saying, ”Welcome, both of you. Please, have a seat.”

Bai Xiaosheng was cordial as if addressing ordinary friends.

Ye Liena and Melanie heard this, their eyes filled with disbelief.

What kind of status do they have!

Doesn’t this man know, how dare he greet them like this?!

Rude!

Who does he think he is!

How dare he act with such an attitude!

Ye Liena’s face slightly darkened, and Melanie also looked displeased.

Next to them, Lin Weiwei, Lei Ying, and even Xiya watched silently.

From the standpoint of corporate positions, although Bai Xiaosheng was not directly above these two women, he was still their leader!

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying knew even better that Bai Xiaosheng was on the same level as Caroline.

If his identity were made clear, it would be these two women who should take the initiative to greet him.

Of course, if today’s meeting weren’t a formal negotiation and Caroline weren’t appearing, Bai Xiaosheng would likely have stood up with Taylor to greet them politely, without any pretension.

He’s also an easygoing and relaxed person.

But today’s situation is special; Bai Xiaosheng has to consider his identity and demeanor, he can’t undermine his own aura, especially with the possibility of needing to be assertive with Caroline in public later.

At present, Bai Xiaosheng’s polite invitation for the two women to be seated was already giving them tremendous face.

Beside them, Taylor understood the nuance but couldn’t just watch in silence. He smiled and smoothed things over, introducing Ye Liena and the others, ”This is Mr. Bai. Thanks to his kindness, we were introduced to several major capital sources for our family. As for the contract issues between us, I think we have enough capacity to resolve them, so we can sit down and talk. Let’s resolve the issues properly today!”

Taylor didn’t disclose Bai Xiaosheng’s identity, thinking that if the moment were right, Bai Xiaosheng would speak for himself, and didn’t need him to say more.

Today’s main discussion is the contract dispute between the Taylor Family and BL Technology, which can be solved with money and doesn’t need unnecessary complications.

”Oh?” Ye Liena, hearing Taylor say this, narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at Bai Xiaosheng with a faint smile, ”So, this gentleman is so capable that he can bring sufficient funding to patch up the financial hole in our contract issues. Then, I’d like to know, sir, your name and identity!”

Melanie also looked coldly at Bai Xiaosheng.

One of their main purposes here was to find out who invested in the Taylor Family and who dared to meddle in matters that concerned their future!

Unexpectedly, it didn’t require much effort, nor did they need to inquire indirectly, for the main person was sitting right here!

No wonder he is so arrogant; it turns out he’s so self-assured and unafraid, not taking the two sisters seriously!

Now, they must hear what his background truly is!

Melanie scrutinized Bai Xiaosheng coldly, finding him more ordinary-looking the longer she looked, without any air of nobility.

While waiting for Bai Xiaosheng to respond, Ye Liena also sized him up, assessing his character.

His appearance suggested he was either of Chinese descent or a Huaxia person.

Ye Liena pondered if he were of Chinese descent, with the surname Bai, could he be related to Ganande Bai Family?

If that were the case, it would actually be easier, since even the Bai Family Patriarch supports Miss Caroline’s candidacy. This young man couldn’t outrank the patriarch in the Bai Family, so at the right moment, a word from Bai Family Patriarch Bai Tianyu would make him step out of this matter obediently.

If he were from Huaxia...

Then he’d be even easier to deal with!

How dare a mere Huaxia person stir up trouble on Ganande’s turf without knowing his place!

By then, they’d use their connections and means to make him understand that money alone can’t cause a stir here!

Ye Liena, being in charge of a powerful enterprise like ”BL Technology,” naturally had her own unique flair, quickly analyzing everything and just waiting for Bai Xiaosheng to announce himself.

She had this thought process, which Bai Xiaosheng comprehended thoroughly.

”My surname is Bai, Miss Ye Liena, you can just call me Mr. Bai.” Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.

This made Ye Liena pause.

She had asked for his name and identity, his background, not how to address him.

As for the address, didn’t Clan Leader Taylor already say?

Ye Liena couldn’t help wanting to tell Bai Xiaosheng—

Do you not understand the implication of my question? Was I asking how to address you?

Melanie also raised an eyebrow, feeling that this young man in front was irritatingly provoking, making her want to lash out...

”Mr. Bai, my intention...” Ye Liena wanted to ask again but found Bai Xiaosheng looking at her with a half-smile, mischief in his eyes.

This young guy knows what I’m asking!

He just won’t say it!

Even if I ask again, the answer will probably be uninteresting!

Ye Liena immediately understood, closed her mouth, and stopped asking.

She then walked over to sit across from Bai Xiaosheng, looking at him with her chin raised.

”Mr. Bai here, are you aware of how many contracts we have with the Taylor Family, have you read them thoroughly, or know how much compensation is required if defaulted?!” She coldly laughed, ”I must remind you, young sir, that the compensation is not divided into many installments, and the initial payment has a set minimum amount that isn’t low!”

Ye Liena glanced at Clan Leader Taylor, smirking, ”If the Taylor Family had to come up with the money itself, I’m afraid a half of its businesses would face breakdowns in their financial chain, resulting in halted operations and production!”

Ye Liena turned to Bai Xiaosheng again, ”I don’t know how much funding you brought to the Taylor Family, thinking it would solve this problem. And what you hope to gain from this! Perhaps cooperation, business. Then let me tell you, the losses won’t be worth it! In this matter, you’re only stepping into a money-sucking whirlpool!”

Ye Liena said scornfully, ”Young handsome boy, you’re still too young; meddling in such a big business dispute might swallow you up, leaving not even a bone behind!”

”In the business world, sister here knows better than you! Because my experience is there, I manage a company that isn’t inferior to any family in power!”

Ye Liena spoke haughtily, feeling rightfully proud of her credentials!

Next to them, Lin Weiwei, Lei Ying, Xiya, and even Taylor felt extremely awkward.

Ye Liena preaching like this, if she knew Bai Xiaosheng’s true identity, one wonders what she’d feel...

Ultimately, Ye Liena is just a responsible for a company within a major district under Zhenbei Group, not on the same level as Bai Xiaosheng.

What’s more, even if Ye Liena had once come across Bai Xiaosheng’s data or photos, she still couldn’t recognize him.

This involved the foreigner’s often inability to distinguish between Huaxia faces, along with Bai Xiaosheng’s ability to control micro-expressions, creating a disparity between his media photo and real self. Such a difference between photo and person is not uncommon in everyday life.

Unable to recognize Bai Xiaosheng, she naturally dared to speak as she did.

Melanie, feeling slightly impatient, moved over to sit next to Ye Liena, unceremoniously took out a cigarette, lit a slim lady’s cigarette for herself, blew out a puff of smoke, pointing at Bai Xiaosheng with two slender fingers holding the cigarette, ”Young brother, I advise you to stay calm and rational. If you want to invest, there are plenty of opportunities. This matter isn’t something you can meddle with!”

”That’s exactly what we mean, you’re not capable of intervening in this!” Ye Liena affirmed, staring straight at Bai Xiaosheng.

Bai Xiaosheng looked at the two women with a smile, nodding slightly, ”I’ve long heard that Miss Ye Liena acts decisively, speaks directly, and as for handling things... just like the car you drove yesterday, taking others’ paths, leaving no way for others. But you should also know that not following the rules means that there might be people who will regulate you ahead on the road!”

Bai Xiaosheng was referring to yesterday’s car overtaking controversy, where at that time, his car window was down, and he had a fleeting encounter with Ye Liena, recognizing her then. Otherwise, she wouldn’t find him familiar.

Today, as soon as Ye Liena entered, Bai Xiaosheng recognized her.

In Bai Xiaosheng’s words, he hinted at Ye Liena not following the rules with a traffic ticket issued by the police, and moreover, that she had gone too far in her actions, implying that he, the Group Headquarters’ deputy head of the monitoring department, was indeed someone who governs her actions!

However, it seemed that Ye Liena did not grasp the deeper meaning.

At this moment, Ye Liena widened her eyes, staring at Bai Xiaosheng, suddenly gritting her teeth and snapping, ”Oh, so it was you who cut my car off yesterday! Such a small world for enemies!”
