Chapter 87 Cooperation

As night falls, the city's neon lights begin to flicker, giving this bustling city a charming look.

At around six or seven in the evening, Mu Nanyan dressed up carefully, said hello to the housekeeper, and drove to Supreme International.

Supreme International.

Mu Nanyan, dressed in a tailored business suit and high heels, walked steadily into the lobby of Supreme International. The luxurious décor made her feel a little uneasy. She was there to discuss a partnership, but she couldn't help but feel a little nervous. She took a deep breath, composed herself, and walked towards the reserved private room.

When she walked into the luxurious box at Supreme International, Xu Fanghai had been waiting for a long time. He was dressed in a designer suit, his hair was meticulously combed, and a hypocritical smile was on his face. When he saw Mu Nanyan walk in, he immediately stood up and greeted her warmly.

"Ms. Mu, hearing about you is not as good as meeting you in person! You are even more beautiful than in the photo." Xu Fanghai said as he took the red wine from the waiter and handed it to Mu Nanyan.

Mu Nanyan took the glass with a smile, but didn't drink it immediately. She knew she was allergic to alcohol, and if she touched it, she would break out in a rash and even go into shock. So, she gently swirled the glass, subtly changing the subject.

"Mr. Xu, thank you for your compliment. Let's talk about cooperation first. I believe both sides are sincere and can work together to create a win-win project."

Xu Fanghai felt a little unhappy when he saw Mu Nanyan wasn't fooled. But he didn't show it. Instead, he continued to interact with Mu Nanyan with a smile. While discussing cooperation, he would occasionally pour wine and pick up food for Mu Nanyan, trying to use these small gestures to get closer to her.

However, Mu Nanyan always maintained a vigilant and distant attitude. She politely declined Xu Fanghai's toast and food, always maintaining a professional smile and polite attitude.

Seeing this, Xu Fanghai became even more anxious. He knew that if he couldn't succeed tonight, he might never have such an opportunity again. So, he came up with a plan and decided to use a different method to achieve his goal.

He pretended to be concerned and said to Mu Nanyan, "Miss Mu, I see you seem a little uncomfortable tonight. Are you too tired? How about I pour you a glass of juice? It won't be too late to discuss cooperation after you have a rest."

Although Mu Nanyan was wary, she felt that nothing would go wrong when she saw Xu Fanghai pouring juice for her. So, she nodded and took the juice cup.

She took a sip of the juice and found it quite tasty. So, she drank it without hesitation. However, she didn't know that Xu Fanghai had tampered with the juice. He had added a special drug that could cause a person to lose strength and consciousness in a short period of time.

As the conversation deepened, Mu Nanyan felt dizzy and her consciousness gradually blurred. She tried to stand up, but found that her body was weak and the scene before her began to distort. Xu Fanghai's smile became twisted and sinister in her eyes.

"Ms. Mu, what's wrong with you?" Xu Fanghai pretended to be concerned, reached out to support her, and a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.

Mu Nanyan struggled to resist, but the drug took effect quickly and her consciousness gradually became blurred.

Soon, Mu Nanyan began to feel weak and dizzy. She tried to stand up, but found her legs were too limp to move. She looked at Xu Fanghai in horror and tried to call for help, but her voice became weak and hoarse.

Seeing this, Xu Fanghai showed a smug smile on his face. He walked over to Mu Nanyan and helped her up.

"Ms. Mu, I see you're very tired today. How about I take you upstairs to rest? We can continue discussing cooperation when you feel better."

Mu Nanyan's heart was filled with fear and despair. She knew she had fallen into Xu Fanghai's trap and was powerless to resist. So, she could only let Xu Fanghai support her and walk out of the box.

On the other side, in the VIP box on the 18th floor of Supreme International, soft lights shine on the exquisite tables and chairs, creating an atmosphere that is both warm and solemn.

Lu Yiran, now sitting in the main seat of the box, looked exceptionally energetic in his tailored dark suit. Beside him, Xu Nanxing, dressed in a sophisticated business suit, with a handsome face and elegant manners, was examining the documents in his hands, making final preparations for the upcoming meeting.

"Brother Yiran, Mr. Shangguan He, the head of the Shangguan family, should be arriving soon."

Xu Nanxing reminded softly, looking towards the entrance of the box from time to time, looking a little nervous. Lu Yiran smiled slightly, his eyes revealing confidence and composure:

"That's fine. We've made sufficient preparations. This cooperation is a rare opportunity for both of us."

Before he finished speaking, the door to the private room was gently pushed open, and an imposing middle-aged man dressed in a Tang suit slowly walked in. It was Shangguan He, the head of the Shangguan family in Haicheng. He was about fifty years old, with a kind face and a sense of majesty, and his eyes were deep, as if he could see into people's hearts.

"Mr. Shangguan, I have long heard of your great name. It is truly an honor to finally meet you today."

Lu Yiran stood up to greet him, his tone filled with humility and enthusiasm.

"Mr. Lu, you are too polite. It is an honor for me, Shangguan He, to have an appointment with you in person."

Shangguan He responded with a smile, and the two shook hands gently, as if they were old friends meeting again after many years.

After a brief greeting, the waiter brought tea and water at the right time, and the two quickly got down to business.

"Our team has repeatedly deliberated on the details of this collaboration and is confident that it will perfectly meet the needs of the Shangguan family."

As Lu Yiran spoke, he handed over a carefully prepared cooperation plan, his words sincere and clear.

Shangguan He took the plan, looked through it carefully, and nodded in approval from time to time:

"Mr. Lu is young and promising. This proposal is truly extraordinary. Our Shangguan family highly values ​​cooperation with your company. I believe that under Mr. Lu's leadership, we will be able to create brilliant achievements together."

As the conversation deepened, the two bonded. From business strategies to market trends to their respective entrepreneurial experiences, they seemed to have endless things to discuss. Time slipped by, and the framework for a collaborative effort gradually became clear during their enjoyable conversations, ultimately leading to a successful partnership.

"Mr. Shangguan, it seems our collaboration is a match made in heaven. Why don't we take this opportunity to have a small celebration?"

Lu Yiran suggested, his face filled with the joy of success.

Unexpectedly, Shangguan He gently waved his hand, with a hint of apology in his smile:

"I appreciate Mr. Lu's kindness, but I'm allergic to alcohol and it's really not suitable for me to drink. How about we have tea instead of wine to celebrate the success of this cooperation?"

Lu Yiran heard this and smiled heartily:

"Haha, I was negligent. Mr. Shangguan's health is the most important thing. Come, let's drink this cup of tea instead of wine!"

The two men clinked their glasses together, and the refreshing aroma of tea filled the air, symbolizing the purity and beauty of cooperation.
