Such a look caused Shen Cimo's expression to change drastically, his face filled with obvious anger.

"This is my younger sister. Starting today, she will be involved in the Shen Group's political affairs, and now she even has the opportunity to sit here."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a warm sensation on his wrist.

Looking up, I saw Qi Jiu's smiling eyes.

In fact, she had noticed something was wrong with Shen Cimo a long time ago. His right hand was never on the table from the beginning, which was not his habit.

Looking closer, it turns out he had a signal device in his hand, which he was playing with.

It's easy to guess who's on the other end of the signal device.

It has to be said that if it were possible, and if Chinese law weren't so strict, Shen Cimo probably wouldn't have intended to let these people leave alive today. What a pity.

"Your sister?"

The person opposite him smiled and asked, "Is it the eldest young lady or the second young lady?" The probing look on his face couldn't be clearer.

As soon as she finished speaking, Qi Jiu's expression remained unchanged. All that could be heard was Shen Cimo's cold snort. Looking at the person opposite her, she wished she could roll her eyes to the heavens.

It seems Qiqi guessed right; these people came for her.

"This question is irrelevant to the current negotiations, and I refuse to answer it." Qi Jiu opened the briefcase next to her and took out a small laptop, along with paper and a pen.

"If you've come here today just to visit the Shen family and not to negotiate, then turn left as you leave. Goodbye."

Qi Jiu wore a polite smile, which made the Shen family executives next to her break out in a cold sweat for her.

Some people even showed expressions of disapproval.

This is Xingluo! Although the Shen family has not gone international, there are more and more news about Xingluo, and it's hard for them not to know.

Despite this, they ultimately failed to say anything.

Hiro, on the other end of the line, wasn't angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "The Shen family members are all quite interesting. President Shen and this Miss Shen are both very interesting. I really look forward to our next collaboration."

The negotiations began, and the people from Xingluo went straight to the point, refusing to say anything superfluous.

That's true. Given Xingluo's current background, acquiring a group that hasn't yet expanded internationally wouldn't be difficult at all, provided there are no unforeseen circumstances.

The girl looked at the contract in her hand, which was exactly the same as the electronic version that Shen Cimo had given her before. Xingluo's group didn't even bother to make any changes. She just laughed.

"Is your company awake yet?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hiro's smile vanished. "What do you mean?"

Qi Jiu casually tossed the contract onto the table, her smile undiminished.

"If you're not fully awake, you're dreaming. Just like this contract, it's utterly delusional."

Seeing that Hiro was about to lose her temper, she simply took out a contract from her briefcase and threw it at him without any hesitation.

"How about you take a look at this first?"

Hiro snorted and turned his gaze to the contract.

The words "acquisition" on the black and white paper almost blinded him.

"Miss Chen, are you joking? Your tiny little group actually wants to acquire our Xingluo? You must be dreaming!"

When Hiro said that, most of the people present were shocked, and even Xingluo and the others had a mocking look on their faces.

Despite this, Qi Jiu remained completely calm, her face radiating a confidence that others lacked.

"Take a look at the contract first. As for whether I'm dreaming or not, you'll find out later."

Hiro pursed his lips and reluctantly opened the contract. As time passed, his entire demeanor changed, and the expression on his face underwent a dramatic transformation.

At first, he was somewhat indifferent and even looked down on it, but now, the seriousness in his eyes is growing stronger.

This prompted everyone around Xingluo to gather around.

After a long pause, he feigned composure and asked, "This young girl who just started managing the Shen Group today, can she even understand contracts and such?"

He was gambling, gambling on the coincidence of this event.

Shen Cimo smiled in the middle, his slender fingers pushing up his elegant gold-rimmed glasses.

"How could I not understand? She drafted this contract, and this company is also hers."

We're all family, so as long as the company's leaders are from the Shen family, that's fine, right?

Hiro choked on his words, though his face still wore that somewhat sarcastic expression. Only he knew how panicked he was after seeing the contract.

The Shen family's acquisition of Xingluo was indeed a pipe dream, but every clause and plan in the contract was practically perfect. There was simply no flaw to be found.

If such a contract were offered to another company, especially one larger than Xingluo, Xingluo would be finished.

This plan is a fatal blow.

Hiro panicked, and although she tried her best to hide it on her face, Qi Jiu and Shen Cimo could tell what was going on.

A confident and flamboyant smile played on his lips.

The meeting room suddenly fell silent. After a long while, Qi Jiu looked at him with a smile on her lips.

"What do you think of my contract? Compared to yours, isn't it much better? Have I considered all the current shortcomings and loopholes of Starfall quite comprehensively? However, there should still be some minor issues, such as your company structure..."

Her voice was laced with laughter, which froze Hiro's expression. He forced himself to look up and meet her gaze, suppressing his fear.

"Who...are you?"

He had thoroughly investigated the Shen family's records. Apart from Shen Cimo and that adopted daughter, the Shen family were basically ordinary people.

Could it be... that she is

Hiro was suddenly startled by the thought in his mind, and looked at Qi Jiu with a tentative gaze.

The girl smiled slightly, her dark eyes deep and unfathomable, and one could even sense something eerie in them.

"The eldest daughter of the Shen family."

Seeing Hiro's somewhat ferocious and puzzled expression, the girl spoke again, "He is also the representative of the Xingyue China branch that you are looking for."

As soon as he finished speaking, not only was Hiro stunned, but even the people next to him were stunned.

There were also some high-ranking members of the Shen family who hadn't attended the previous cooperation talks with Xingyue, and they all looked bewildered.

They looked at their young lady with shock in their eyes, their initial shock turning into joy. If that was the case, then was there any hope for the Shen family?

"Starfall..."

Qi Jiu muttered to herself twice, then shook her head with amusement, "Not so great."

Hero: "!!"

This is a provocation, a blatant provocation!

Hiro suppressed his anger, looked at the group opposite him, realized that he had been tricked, and forced a smile.
