The Lady of the Prestigious Family is a Big Boss-Chapter 145, Good one Li Mochan, ruthless enough (fourth update)
"Boss, the person has arrived," Yu Wei said as he pushed open the door, his expression respectfully conveyed.
Chu Chen raised an eyebrow, flicked the cigarette ash off his leg with a hand, "Let everyone leave and stand guard outside the door."
Yu Wei responded, "Yes."
Downstairs, the dance floor was empty, and there was no sign of the bartender at the bar either.
Coming downstairs, Yu Wei saw the man who pushed the door open and entered, his narrow, dark eyes slightly upturned in a sweep of casual arrogance that made others dare not look directly at him.
Under the light, that delicate face was even more beautiful than Chu Chen’s by quite a few degrees.
For a man to look like this, the term "calamity of beauty" was not sufficient to describe him in the least.
"Lord Li,"
Yu Wei took a step forward, smiled modestly without groveling or arrogance, and said, "Lord Li, my boss is waiting for you upstairs in the private room."
Li Mochan glanced at him and stepped up the stairs with his long, straight legs, with Wei Nan following closely behind, while Wei Bei stayed downstairs.
Chu Chen took a sip of his drink. The door of the private room opened, and steady footsteps approached, unhurried.
He lifted his eyelids just in time to meet the cold, black-hole-like gaze of the newcomer.
When kings meet, their gazes clashed, and the intangible scent of gunpowder spread through the air, edge meeting edge.
"Lord Li, I’ve long admired your reputation," Chu Chen put down his glass and extended his hand in a welcoming gesture, "Please have a seat." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
Li Mochan lightly moved his feet and sat down opposite him.
Wei Nan stood next to Li Mochan, his sharp gaze subtly scanning Chu Chen’s utterly ordinary face.
The boss of Organization K did seem somewhat interesting – his human skin mask had almost fooled even him.
"Knowing that Lord Li is a busy man, I won’t delay your time. Let’s be straight to the point," Chu Chen glanced at Yu Wei, who nodded in understanding, took a glass and poured a drink for Li Mochan.
Li Mochan lowered his eyebrows, his expression indifferent.
"Although the goods were delayed by one day, Lord Li, you shouldn’t be so harsh as to demand four percentage points from us in one go," Chu Chen lit a cigarette, his eyes flickering with coldness.
"You agreed to the delivery time as well," Li Mochan with a slight lift in his ink-dark eyes, spoke in a lukewarm tone.
The implication was clear: they hadn’t kept to the agreed delivery time initially, so they couldn’t blame him for the consequences.
Chu Chen gritted his teeth; that tone was truly choking.
On par with Ajiu’s.
No wonder he had his eyes on their "cabbage."
"Indeed, we agreed to the delivery time, but there was a reason for the delay, and we are willing to concede one percentage point,"’
If it wasn’t for the unexpected issue at the base which caused the delay in the delivery, they wouldn’t be in such a passive position now, forced to be at Li Mochan’s mercy.
"However, Lord Li’s demand for four points right off the bat is something we simply cannot accept."
Li Mochan’s eyes were languid, but a closer look showed they were filled with absolute ruthlessness and ferocity.
"Cannot accept?"
He let out a light, cold laugh, "Then just return it."
With that, the air seemed to freeze.
The scent of gunpowder grew stronger.
Chu Chen’s face darkened, he pinched out the cigarette butt and tossed it into the ashtray.
A real piece of work, this Li Mochan, ruthless indeed.
If Li Mochan meant to let them return the goods, he better not have people intercept and hold their merchandise on purpose only to say this now, clearly looking to cut off their escape route.
"Business is about the long term. Lord Li is a smart man and should understand this, too. Our Organization K and the Dark Hall have always kept to our own waters. Surely we wouldn’t want to sour our relations over this collaboration?"
If Chu Chen hadn’t learned about Li Mochan’s temperament, he might suspect that Li Mochan was being so ruthless this time because he knew that Ajiu had once snatched goods from their Dark Hall.
