Chapter 299 He underestimated Chen Ci too much
Chen Ci raised his wrist to check the time, then looked up at Ji Yongxiu and smiled: "Mr. Ji, time is running out!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Yongxiu quickly straightened his sitting posture, temporarily putting the matter of "coffee" behind him, and quickly took out the prepared contract and handed it to Shen Ci with both hands.
After Shen Ci took the contract, he leaned back on the sofa and began to look through it lazily and casually.
He said he was watching, but in fact he was just pretending.
The terms of such a large land acquisition contract cannot be clearly written in two or three pages.
But for Ji Yongxiu, it didn’t matter whether Shen Ci read it or understood it. What mattered was that as long as she signed in the last column, he would have accomplished his mission today.
In his spare time, his eyes couldn't help but wander between the two beauties, Shen Ci and Pili.
The two of them have different looks and temperaments, but they are both goddess-level, even better than the lovers he carefully selected and kept.
Pili glanced at him casually and his eyes met his.
A veteran like Ji Yongxiu did not reveal the slightest hint of guilt or panic. Instead, he smiled like a gentleman and seemed to have nothing wrong.
After a while, Shen Ci slowly closed the contract and raised her head. Seeing this, Ji Yongxiu quickly smiled and leaned forward, saying with hope in his eyes, "Don't worry, Miss Shen, there will be absolutely no problem with this contract."
Shen Ci raised his eyebrows when he heard this, thinking that he didn't know whether there was a problem with the contract, but there must be something wrong with you.
She nodded calmly. "As an outsider, I'm just here to watch the fun. I'll take the contract first. I'll give it to my lawyer to review and then give Mr. Ji a reply."
When Ji Yongxiu heard this, the smile on his face froze instantly.
“Miss Shen, didn’t we agree to sign the contract today?”
The chairman gave him two days, and today is already the second day!
Chen Ci said slowly, with a look of doubt on his face: "Did I say that? I don't think I ever promised Mr. Ji that the contract would be signed today? And isn't it a formal procedure for me to ask a lawyer to review the contract? Does Mr. Ji really expect me, an astronomy student, to understand the land acquisition contract?"
Ji Yongxiu: “…”
He could no longer hide his anxiety, but in Shen Ci's eyes it only made him look even more joyful.
It turns out that after the roles were reversed, even someone as calm as Ji Yongxiu would be at a loss.
Chen Ci's smile immediately faded: "Mr. Ji, your rush to get me to sign the contract has only deepened my doubts about this contract. I have to re-examine our cooperation."
"Ms. Shen, you really misunderstood me!" Ji Yongxiu argued, "I was indeed a little anxious, but it was only because I was afraid that a competitor would emerge. After all, I have told Miss Shen more than once how important this piece of land is to our company."
"The more important it is, the more cautious we should be, right?" Chen Ci looked at him and whispered, "This is not a small business worth three or five dollars."
In the face of Shen Ci's elegance and calmness, Ji Yongxiu's eagerness for quick success and instant benefits was completely useless.
I still remember the first time I met Shen Ci here not long ago. He thought that the girl in front of him was just an inexperienced greenhorn, and he coaxed her into selling the land to him with just a few words.
As a result, he vaguely felt that Shen Ci was a little different last time.
Today he felt even worse. No matter what he said, she could easily deny it. And unlike before, she would not follow his words and be led step by step by him to take the initiative.
Ji Yongxiu only realized at this moment that he had underestimated Shen Ci.
Quickly adjusting his state, Ji Yongxiu looked at Shen Ci and asked seriously: "Miss Shen, what you said makes sense, can you give me an accurate time?"
Shen Ci pretended to think for a moment, then nodded and said, "Within a week."
"this……"
Ji Yongxiu opened his mouth dumbly, and it seemed like he was about to cry.
A week is too long. The chairman will definitely be angry if he finds out.
However, Shen Ci suddenly smiled, looked at Ji Yongxiu's expression and said jokingly: "Just kidding, I will contact you again in two days."
Ji Yongxiu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, thinking that two days was not a big deal. Even if the chairman was in a hurry, he should be able to accept two more days to approve the contract.
Before he could nod, Shen Ci had already stood up: "It's time, I have to go to class."
"Okay, then Miss Shen, I will wait for your news. Please don't forget."
Seeing his earnest and pitiful look, the smile on Shen Ci's face widened a little, and she took Pili's arm and walked outside.
As soon as Chen Ci left, Ji Yongxiu's face suddenly became gloomy. He was unwilling to accept this because according to his original idea, the land should have belonged to the Li family long ago, but the contract had not even been completed so far.
And the initiative is not in his hands at all.
Thinking that he could join the board of directors with this mission, Ji Yongxiu's desire to succeed reached an unprecedented peak. He must get this project!
On the other hand, Li Wanchang also quickly received Ji Yongxiu's progress report. Although he was dissatisfied with the two-day extension, he also knew that haste is not the way to eat hot tofu. The other party wanted to find a professional lawyer to review the contract, which was a very professional and reasonable behavior, and they had no reason to stop it.
So in the end, he still said the same thing, he asked Ji Yongxiu to make sure that everything goes well this time, and Ji Yongxiu naturally agreed!
At noon, in the cafeteria of No. 2 Middle School.
"Case closed?"
Jiang Ran was surprised to hear that Shen Xing planned to go to the police station after school to cancel the case he had registered. "Why? Did the police station call you? Can't find anyone?"
Shen Xing was trying to organize her words and think about how to explain to Jiang Ran, but Shi Jingming interrupted her and said, "This matter has been dealt with privately, and the person has been found."
"Found it?" Jiang Ran was startled. She looked back and forth between Shen Xing and Shi Jingming, half believing and half believing. Finally, she fixed her gaze on Shen Xing and asked, "Shen Xing, what's going on?"
It’s not that she has to worry about other people’s affairs, but they have already reported this matter to the police, and she doesn’t want Shen Xing to easily succumb to evil forces.
"That's the squad leader. It's because my sister knows the other party's eldest brother, so this matter was handled by them." Shen Xing summarized the whole thing in a very short sentence.
Shi Jingming then said in amazement, "Jiang Ran, you don't know, Shen Xing's sister is incredibly powerful. The big brothers in the underworld have to lower their heads when they see her and dare not look directly at her. They also call her "Sister Ci" respectfully. I was watching her yesterday and my heart was beating so fast. I have never seen a girl with such a strong aura. When she stands there, everyone in front of her becomes a small shrimp!"
