The runaway Cinderella of the billionaire president

Two days later, Wang Lei, Zhou Yian and He Tian arrived at the Xinhai Group headquarters as scheduled.

In the extremely luxurious reception room, the three of them sat uncomfortably, not knowing what was waiting for them.

Zhou Yian nervously clenched the hem of his clothes with his hands, and before he knew it, it became difficult for him to breathe.

After a while, the sound of high heels hitting the floor rang out rhythmically in the conference room, and then Han Jiayue walked in with a few people dressed in black business suits and with serious expressions.

"Hello, Mr. Han."

Wang Lei stood up to greet him with a smile on his face, but he was so flustered that he didn't know where to put his hands and looked very embarrassed.

Han Jiayue glanced at Wang Lei, scanned the conference room, and frowned unhappily, "Where's General Manager Wang? Didn't he come even though such a big thing happened?"

"Well, Mr. Han, please forgive me. Mr. Wang is ill, so he sent me as a representative to negotiate with you about the compensation for the goods being soaked in seawater this time."

"Well, that's all." Han Jiayue and a few others sat opposite Wang Lei and the other two. Their expressions were serious and indifferent, and they didn't smile at all, as if they were doing their job in a businesslike manner.

Han Jiayue has sharp eyes and a strong aura when she is not smiling. The atmosphere at the scene is very quiet and depressing.

Han Jiayue glanced at Zhou Yian, saw her nervousness and uneasiness, smiled at her, and nodded gently. Her attitude was completely different from when she faced Wang Lei just now.

Zhou Yian received her kindness, and his inner tension eased a little. He nodded slightly toward her, "Hello, President Han."

Han Jiayue narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Hello, Xiao Zhou."

After saying that, Han Jiayue's gaze fell back on Wang Lei. Wang Lei was grinning, but his smile was very forced. Han Jiayue gave him an indifferent look in return.

Han Jiayue didn't exchange pleasantries and went straight to the point.

"Due to bad weather, all my goods were flooded during this cooperation. According to the contract, your company must compensate us three times the value of the goods. Does your company have any objection to our compensation request?"

Han Jiayue said as she pushed the document in her hand over to Wang Lei. Wang Lei reached out to take it, opened the document and looked at it carefully. The long string of numbers in the amount column made him break out in a cold sweat.

"Boss Han, can you be more flexible on this amount? Our company really can't afford to pay such a large sum of money."

"Can't afford to pay? When your company was making money, you didn't say you couldn't eat it. Since you have such a big appetite and the courage to take such a big order, you naturally have to be able to bear risks, Mr. Wang, don't you agree?"

Han Jiayue's words showed no regard for Wang Lei's dignity at all, which made him very embarrassed, but he still looked at Han Jiayue with a smile on his face.

"Boss Han, to be honest, this time we didn't buy all the insurance because of the negligence of our company staff. The insurance company won't pay, so it's really hard for our company to come up with the money all at once."

When Wang Lei said this, he deliberately fixed his gaze on Zhou Yian and stayed there for a few seconds. His purpose was self-evident.

"But don't worry, we will do our best to compensate you for your losses. However, the amount is too large. Even if we sell the company, it is not enough to compensate. So, Mr. Han, do you think there is any compromise?"

Han Jiayue pretended to be ignorant even though she knew the truth, and her impression of Wang Lei became worse. She chuckled, "Mr. Wang, you are already an old man. The business world is like a battlefield. You don't want us, Xinhai, to pay for your company's mistakes, do you?"

"Do you know that we have to re-purchase goods and send them to customers by air express at a huge cost? Who will pay for our losses? In business, honesty is the key. If you don't even understand this principle, then Baowei is gone? I want you to come and talk to me, huh?"

In the business world, Han Jiayue never drags his feet and is always decisive. He speaks with reason and evidence and never thinks of giving Wang Lei face.

After these words were spoken, several staff members sitting nearby couldn't help but smile slightly. This time Wang Lei really lost face.

"Hey... eh..."

Wang Lei was speechless after being confronted. He could only laugh dryly to cover up his embarrassment.

At this moment, Han Jiayue suddenly changed the subject and said, "How about this, I can give you some time so that you have enough time to raise the money. This is the only concession I can make."

"Then Mr. Han, how long do you mean it can be postponed?"

"One week later, you either give us money or a better solution. If you don't have a better solution, then we will decide whether your company survives or dies."

After Han Jiayue finished speaking, she looked straight at Wang Lei, and the implication of her words was self-evident.

"Okay, I'll go back and discuss this with the boss and see what to do."

Seeing Han Jiayue's tough attitude, Wang Lei knew there was no room for maneuver in this negotiation, so he could only leave Xinhai with Zhou Yian and He Tian in disappointment.

Walking downstairs, Wang Lei was so angry when he thought about being humiliated by Han Jiayue just now that he kicked the roadside post viciously, "Damn, this is really aggrieved."

"Brother-in-law, what should we do? Where can we get so much money in a week?"

"Even if we sell everything we have, we can't come up with this much money."

Wang Lei glared at He Tian impatiently, "What should I do? What should I do? You ask me, who should I ask?"

"Do you understand the urgency now? Why were you like a mute just now and couldn't speak?"

Wang Lei was furious and raised his hand to slap He Tian. His hand was halfway up in the air when he remembered that Zhou Yian was following him, and his hand dropped down weakly again.

He said unhappily, "Let's go, let's talk about it when we get back. I'm tired of seeing you guys."
