Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 893: Chapter 889: Falcon Turns into a Loyal Dog

Outside the door, Wu Jun and his companions were waiting, but because of the extremely private conversation just now, they all stood motionless.

Someone actually dared to hit on their boss right in front of them; this woman surnamed Yao is really bold, unafraid of death.

They were listening intently and nervously, suddenly they heard a shout from Huo Sining inside, and Wu Jun immediately shook, signaling to Bruce Lee, and the group quietly walked into the reception room.

Gu Xu was still immersed in his wife’s indirect confession, his heart bubbling with a mix of sweetness and bitterness, fully experiencing the satisfying moment when years of waiting finally paid off.

He was even imagining all sorts of scenarios in his mind, like how his wife actually cared about him but felt embarrassed to express it due to her pride. Now, with a romantic rival appearing, she felt a sense of crisis and was eager to declare her love and assert her dominance.

The more Gu Xu thought about it, the more excited he became. The situation was great, he even thought that if he took out a ring to propose now, his wife might impulsively agree on the spot.

Gu Xu thought his idea was really good and was hesitating whether to actually do it, when suddenly four or five unfamiliar men and women rushed in from outside, causing Gu Xu’s mind to turn blank as he looked in surprise at Bruce Lee and Wu Jun who were at the forefront, completely unclear about the situation.

Wu Jun’s mouth twitched involuntarily. Previously, at Falcon, he had always thought his captain was wise, heroic, and brilliant, but now seeing his confused appearance, Wu Jun felt the image of his mighty captain in his heart instantly collapsed; this was clearly a lovesick loyal dog, not a falcon at all!

Not only was Gu Xu confused, but Yao Xinzhu also didn’t understand what was happening. However, seeing Bruce Lee and his secretary standing in front, Yao Xinzhu vaguely guessed their purpose, and her heart sank, her face turned even paler as she bit her lip and stared straight at them.

But even though she guessed Bruce Lee’s purpose, she couldn’t do anything and could only watch helplessly, completely unable to stop it.

Bruce Lee had just watched a cheesy, chasing-the-boss TV drama outside the door and saw a strange glint in both Huo Sining and Gu Xu’s eyes. When Huo Sining looked over, he instinctively covered his mouth with his fist and cleared his throat, his gaze then returned to normal as he formally said to Gu Xu:

”Hello, Mr. Gu, I’m Bruce Lee, the Huaxia agent for the XiangNai brand. Please pardon my intrusion, as I did not make an appointment. We are here to invite your company, on behalf of XiangNai, to consider collaborating on project development.”

Gu Xu was stunned, becoming even more confused about what was happening.

He had never interacted with XiangNai or known Bruce Lee, but he was aware of XiangNai’s international status, which was undoubtedly high, not lower than Samra’s, especially since XiangNai was a well-established old brand. Such a company should be very particular about prestige and ceremony, how could it lower itself and rush to his company seeking cooperation?

A flash of doubt crossed Gu Xu’s eyes, and he instinctively looked towards Huo Sining, wanting to inquire about what it all meant.

Huo Sining smiled slightly, glanced at Yao Xinzhu, and asked with a light smile: ”Miss Yao, I want to discuss business with Mr. Gu here. Can you please step aside for a moment?”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room looked towards Yao Xinzhu, who instantly felt humiliated, trembling all over. She quickly raised her head and looked at Gu Xu: ”A Xu...”

Gu Xu didn’t even give her a glance, directly issuing an eviction order: ”Miss Yao, I need to convene an emergency meeting here, so all unrelated persons should not stay. Linzhi, please escort Miss Yao out!”

Huo Sining looked at Yao Xinzhu with a faint mockery, while others showed expressions of sympathy, disdain, or schadenfreude. Secretary Yang Linzhi, with an official attitude, said to Yao Xinzhu: ”Miss Yao, please.”

Yao Xinzhu felt utterly ashamed and angry, raising her head resentfully to glare at Huo Sining, nearly biting down on her teeth in hatred, ultimately snorting coldly in dissatisfaction as she was politely escorted out by Yang Linzhi.

With one of the gossip focal points gone, everyone began to resume normal expressions.

Gu Xu also recovered from the rush of sweetness just now, looking at Huo Sining with a mixture of helplessness and inquiry, leisurely asking: ”Okay, what’s going on exactly?”

Huo Sining curled her lips, revealing a sly expression: ”What’s going on? That’s just it, someone wants to steal my boyfriend, and I’m simply reacting normally.”

A flicker of a smile flashed in Gu Xu’s eyes, glancing at Bruce Lee, who was sitting upright beside him, he said: ”Your normal reaction is quite astonishing, even bringing XiangNai in. Are you trying to make me confront Samra head-on and completely declare war?”

Huo Sining pouted and shrugged: ”As long as the raw material crisis of balsam isn’t resolved, Samra will be too occupied to care. Even if they dislike it, they are indeed in the wrong first. Shengtang can’t indefinitely accommodate them due to their mistakes. Shengtang is a profitable institution, not a charity. Samra isn’t so foolish as to offend another person over this matter.”

Gu Xu laughed: ”You’re pretty perceptive. But then, what do you mean by bringing XiangNai over? The balsam crisis affects more than just Samra; XiangNai can’t remain unscathed. Without raw materials, there wouldn’t be products. My project, no matter who I collaborate with, would be the same.”

A smug expression surfaced on Huo Sining’s face: ”This is where you’re mistaken. Your information is outdated. As of five days ago, XiangNai had already resolved the raw material crisis. Now they have nearly ten tons of balsam raw material, sufficient to provide XiangNai Company with a year’s worth of raw materials.”

”Moreover, XiangNai has found a source for procurement, resolving their raw material supply issues for the coming years, so such a crisis won’t happen again.”

”Currently, other companies are like ants on a hot pan, unable to find raw materials, whereas XiangNai has already broken through the crisis. An industry reshuffle is highly likely to occur next, and now that XiangNai offers cooperation, I believe Shengtang has no reason to refuse this opportunity, right?”
