"You know me?"
Downstairs in the teaching building, a look of surprise flashed in Li Xiaolong's eyes. It was clearly the first time the two had met, but he found that Zhou Chen was quite surprised when she saw him. This was too strange. You know, when strangers meet, the first thing they should feel is doubt and curiosity.
He didn't see that in Zhou Chen's eyes.
"Zhou Xiaolong".
Zhou Chen called out Li Xiaolong's name directly without denying it.
He really didn't expect that Li Xiaolong would come to the school to find him. He knew quite a bit about Zhou Haide's son. Li Xiaolong had shown considerable talent in business, especially his unique vision. He had helped the Li family secure some projects with development potential several times.
Moreover, unlike typical spoiled brats, he was not arrogant, domineering, or condescending.
On the contrary,
Li Xiaolong has received high praise. Whether it's business owners or ordinary people, they all admire him highly, believing that he is easy-going, humble, and down-to-earth, showing respect even to the servants in his home.
If it weren't for Li Xiaolong's health condition, he might have fully inherited the Li family business and taken over the family business six months ago.
This is also the main reason why Zhou Chen thinks highly of Li Xiaolong.
Because he felt that Li Xiaolong was difficult to deal with, and that someone who knew how to package and create his own persona was far from ordinary.
Of course, Zhou Chen is not invincible, but rather difficult to deal with. If Li Xiaolong were to become his enemy, he would not be afraid at all.
The information Tang Wu brought back was enough for him to formulate a response.
Li Xiaolong's eyes flickered. Zhou Chen actually knew him and even called out his name accurately. Clearly, he had done some investigation on him, and this kind of investigation was something that couldn't be done on the mainland. In other words, Zhou Chen might have sent someone to Hong Kong to investigate.
That's really something else.
As expected of someone who has achieved success in business, he really has some skills. He had previously heard Zhou Haide say that he had talked to Zhou Chen about acquiring Secret Snow Ice City but was rejected, and the two sides did not have a very pleasant time.
Perhaps it was around that time that Zhou Chen began investigating Zhou Haide, and then he found out about him.
"Since you know me, let's be frank. I'm very interested in your game company. I'm willing to acquire it or invest in it, as long as you agree. The price is negotiable. What do you think, Mr. Zhou?"
Li Xiaolong didn't want to keep everyone in suspense. Zhou Chen knew him to some extent, and he, in turn, had done his own research on Zhou Chen.
He knew that Zhou Chen was decisive and efficient; otherwise, he wouldn't have established so many companies and handed them all over to others to manage.
"Although the business world is like a battlefield, I think that doing business doesn't necessarily have to be a fight to the death. It's entirely possible to cooperate and achieve a win-win situation. Mr. Zhou, you can consider me becoming a shareholder and a partner of the Li family. I can guarantee that Mr. Zhou will definitely not suffer any losses."
"Moreover, speaking of which, you and I have some history. Although a few ungrateful people have disappointed you, Mr. Zhou, since you know me, you must also know my character. I am different from them. I have a good reputation in Hong Kong."
Li Xiaolong added.
After saying that,
Li Xiaolong stared into Zhou Chen's eyes, trying to grasp the slightest change in Zhou Chen's mind.
pity,
Zhou Chen's complete indifference disappointed him. He couldn't see any emotional fluctuation in Zhou Chen's eyes, which meant that all his words just now seemed to have been in vain.
This made Li Xiaolong frown slightly, realizing that Zhou Chen was either managing her expression too well, or she really had no interest in him at all.
"I'd like to know your opinion on the matter of half-siblings donating organs to their father's child with another woman?"
Zhou Chen didn't answer, but instead suddenly asked a completely unrelated question.
But these words made Li Xiaolong's expression change instantly.
Because this statement clearly refers to Li Xiaolong.
Zhou Chen noticed that Li Xiaolong's lips twitched slightly, unlike his previous calm and composed demeanor, which remained unchanged even under immense pressure.
"Although they are half-siblings, they are family since they share similar bloodlines. Moreover, it was a life-saving grace, so we are naturally grateful."
Li Xiaolong forced a fake smile and said.
"oh?"
Zhou Chen chuckled and shrugged.
This reaction carried a clear sense of skepticism. Li Xiaolong's expression darkened slightly, and he raised an eyebrow, saying, "Wouldn't you think the same way, Boss Zhou?"
This time, Zhou Chen laughed out loud, still giving an irrelevant answer to the question, "I'm not an animal. Of course I won't forget the life-saving grace. After waking up, I will definitely regard my half-siblings as my closest relatives, because they gave me a second life. I think you must have a very good relationship with your brothers and sisters, right?"
Faced with Zhou Chen's double entendre, Li Xiaolong chuckled and said, "Of course. I didn't want to interrupt Mr. Zhou's class today. Let's talk about business another day."
I don't think it's necessary.
Zhou Chen smiled.
Li Xiaolong paused slightly, but still smiled, and replied, "Alright, but Mr. Zhou, you've called me by the wrong name. My name is Li Xiaolong!"
After saying that,
Li Xiaolong waved his hand, and the bodyguard behind him immediately understood and pushed the wheelchair away.
After turning around completely,
Li Xiaolong's face instantly darkened.
He didn't mind investing in Zhou Chen's company and even made a guarantee for a win-win cooperation. However, Zhou Chen used those three ungrateful people as an excuse to subtly criticize him and mock his hypocrisy.
after all,
He claimed to have an impeccable reputation, but after the organ transplant surgery, he didn't actually thank Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan much, and hadn't even met them. Zhou Chen seemed to know all about this, so he essentially contradicted himself.
Zhou Chen may have seemed not to respond to his question, but in reality, her answer was crystal clear.
In short, I don't trust you, Li Xiaolong, and I have no interest in achieving a win-win situation with you.
After repeatedly being rebuffed by Zhou Chen,
This really blew Li Xiaolong's composure, and he almost lost his composure, revealing his true self in front of Zhou Chen.
That damn guy!
Li Xiaolong narrowed his eyes, his anger at Zhou Chen's shamelessness reaching its peak.
"If we can't be partners, then they are my enemies."
"I will not show mercy to my enemies."
"Zhou Chen, you'll regret this."
Li Xiaolong believed that he had cultivated his temperament to a certain level and would not get angry easily; otherwise, he would not have cultivated a gentle and humble persona.
But today, faced with Zhou Chen's few words, he almost had his public image collapse.
Realizing this, Li Xiaolong suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He realized that Zhou Chen was not to be underestimated; it was as if Zhou Chen could see right through him.
Moreover, throughout the entire conversation, Zhou Chen led him by the nose.
