"Xiang Shenghui, what's the name of the company that's partnering with your dad?" Lu Qing asked.
Xiang Shenghui replied with a smile:
"It seems to be called Haoyu Real Estate. It can't compare to the Gu family or the Chu family, but it's still quite large."
Lu Qing nodded slightly:
"Come over tomorrow and have a proper talk. If there are any problems, you can come to me."
Xiang Shenghui did not notice the hint of worry that flashed in Lu Qing's eyes, and smiled as he agreed.
Haoyu Real Estate is under Huang Zeyu's name. Lu Qing doesn't think it's a coincidence that he approached Xiang Shenghui for cooperation; he's probably after her.
After returning home, Lu Qing told Gu Xicheng about it.
Gu Xicheng couldn't help but feel annoyed again:
"This Huang Zeyu is really going to keep going!"
"Gu Xicheng, what do you think Huang Zeyu wants by approaching Xiang Shenghui?" Lu Qing asked.
Gu Xicheng: "Needless to say, his target is definitely you, but what exactly he wants to do... we can find an opportunity to ask Xiang Shenghui about it tomorrow."
“In broad daylight, he probably wouldn’t dare to do anything to Xiang Shenghui. Besides, he definitely knows that Xiang Shenghui isn’t familiar with you. If he wanted to threaten you, he would have a better candidate and wouldn’t need to come to Xiang Shenghui.”
Lu Qing sighed:
"I can roughly guess some of it, but I don't know about Xiang Shenghui..."
Lu Qing didn't say anything more, nor did he dare to cast a divination.
Human hearts are the most vulnerable to calculation; she feared that the calculations would yield bad results.
After all, Xiang Shenghui and Yang Xiwen grew up together as childhood sweethearts. If he really did something wrong, Yang Xiwen would definitely be caught in the middle and have a difficult time.
Seeing the worry etched on Lu Qing's face, Gu Xicheng smiled and gently pulled her into his arms.
"Qingqing, do you believe Yang Xiwen?"
Lu Qing answered without hesitation, "I believe her! She's my friend, of course I believe her!"
"Since you trust her, then trust the people she trusts. Xiang Shenghui and Yang Xiwen grew up together as childhood sweethearts. If they weren't compatible, how could they have such a good relationship!"
"Besides, didn't you see Xiang Shenghui's face? He's not a bad person, so he wouldn't collude with someone like Huang Zeyu!"
Hearing Gu Xicheng's words, Lu Qing immediately felt a sense of relief.
"Let's wait and see what happens tomorrow!"
...
The next day, Xiang Shenghui started preparing early in the morning.
First, he got a haircut, then changed into a formal suit, and drove over in his best car.
"Mr. Huang, the people have arrived!" Emily said.
Huang Zeyu's lips curled up in a sinister smile as he said:
"Then quickly invite them in!"
Xiang Shenghui was quickly taken to the office by Emily and met Huang Zeyu.
He was unaware of what was about to happen and was overjoyed, feeling that this was a tremendous opportunity for him.
"Hello Mr. Huang, I am Xiang Shenghui!"
Xiang Shenghui extended his hand, but Huang Zeyu ignored him, only glancing at the chair:
"Don't be so polite, please have a seat!"
Xiang Shenghui withdrew his hand somewhat awkwardly, but didn't seem to care too much, and sat down.
"Mr. Huang, thank you very much for giving me the opportunity to cooperate with your company. May I first learn about the specific details of the project?"
"Don't rush things with the project, please have a seat!"
"Emily, go pour a cup of coffee for...Mr. Xiang!"
Huang Zeyu's way of addressing Xiang Shenghui made him feel embarrassed:
"Mr. Huang, you flatter me. My family company was run by my father, and I'm new to it. You can just call me Xiao Xiang."
Huang Zeyu smiled:
"Okay, Xiao Xiang, could you briefly introduce your company's advantages? After all, we're looking for a long-term partnership!"
Xiang Shenghui quickly handed over the documents he had brought:
"Mr. Huang, these are projects that our company has undertaken, and the feedback has been very good."
Huang Zeyu only flipped through a few pages casually before giving up.
Xiang Shenghui was a little nervous, but still smiled and said:
"These are all small and medium-sized projects, which are certainly incomparable to your company's projects, but as long as Mr. Huang trusts us, we will do our best to do our best!"
"Young man, don't be nervous, I don't mean any dissatisfaction!"
Huang Zeyu smiled at Xiang Shenghui, a hint of mockery in his eyes.
Just then, Emily brought in a cup of coffee:
"Mr. Xiang, please!"
Xiang Shenghui thanked him with a smile.
Huang Zeyu handed over the project proposal:
"Take a look at this plan first. If there are no problems, we can proceed with the next steps."
Xiang Shenghui quickly put down his coffee, took the plan, and looked at it carefully.
The more he looked, the more obvious the excitement in his eyes became.
"Such a big project, are you really going to cooperate with us?" Xiang Shenghui was very excited.
Huang Zeyu nodded with a smile:
"You already have the project proposal, do you think I'd joke with you?"
Xiang Shenghui quickly stood up, bowed, and thanked him:
"Thank you, Mr. Huang, for giving me this opportunity. Please trust us; we will do our best to achieve the best results!"
"If there are no problems, let's sign the contract directly!"
As soon as Huang Zeyu gave the order, Emily immediately brought over the contract.
Xiang Shenghui was even more surprised:
"Signing the contract so soon? Shouldn't you wait for our construction drawings to be completed and take a look before making a decision?"
Huang Zeyu: "No need. Since I've come to you, I trust your abilities!"
Xiang Shenghui suddenly felt something was strange. He didn't believe in free lunches, much less that a free lunch would fall right on his head.
He had some doubts when he received the call last night, and now he feels even more uneasy.
But now he was in a bind, so he had no choice but to take the contract and carefully read through it clause by clause.
He couldn't find any problems with the contract, so he had no choice but to sign it.
"Thank you, Mr. Huang, for giving me this opportunity, but I still want to ask, why did you come to me?" Xiang Shenghui asked.
Once Huang Zeyu saw that he had signed the contract, he stopped pretending.
"The son of an unknown small company owner, I wouldn't have paid any attention to you before, but since you're Yang Xiwen's friend!"
Upon hearing Yang Xiwen's name, Xiang Shenghui immediately became alert:
"You know her?"
Huang Zeyu scoffed: "She's just an ordinary girl, how could I possibly know her!"
"The person I know is her friend, Lu Qing!"
Xiang Shenghui immediately understood that Huang Zeyu's target was Lu Qing, and it was definitely not something good.
"What exactly is your purpose?" Xiang Shenghui asked, frowning.
Huang Zeyu glanced at the contract and smiled:
"Take a look at Article 30 on page twelve of the contract."
Xiang Shenghui quickly flipped through the contract and found that clause:
"Party A must unconditionally meet Party B's construction requirements. If Party B deems them unqualified, Party B must rework them free of charge..."
"This is an unfair contract!" Xiang Shenghui exclaimed angrily.
This regulation means that no matter how well the project is done, if Huang Zeyu says it is substandard, they will not only not receive payment for the project, but will also have to pay for the rework themselves.
Such a large project, if delayed, could bankrupt the construction company.
"President Huang, what do you mean by this? If you're not genuinely interested in cooperating, why go to all this trouble!" Xiang Shenghui questioned angrily.
