Wait, is this guy really planning to negotiate? Judging from this, something seems... off.
Shouldn't we be looking at the contract now? Why are we playing games right now?
They waited in the lobby for as long as they felt awkward, except for Qi Jiu, who was engrossed in her game.
"Ms. Rongman, I think I made myself very clear on the phone. Why are you so persistent? Or rather, what can you do to make me regret it?"
The other party had just arrived in the hall and, before their owner could even speak, uttered this remark.
Judging from his arrogant attitude, he has never taken the Delin family seriously.
The other party was a young man, who looked to be about the same age as Qi Lin. He was followed by several bodyguards and sat down on the sofa next to him with a very dashing air.
If they didn't know better, looking at his carefree actions, they would have thought that the Delin family belonged to him.
All these movements were too natural.
Sinner was dressed in a suit, and the gold necklace around his neck looked heavy. He was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, looking quite helpless.
“Miss Rongman, if you hadn’t made those outrageous remarks on the phone, I would never have come today. Now that I’m here, tell me what’s going on and what might make me regret it.”
As he spoke, he glanced to the side and quickly spotted the rather intriguing figure. He paused, then his eyes lit up.
"Huh? When did the Delin family acquire such a beautiful young lady? I've never seen her before?"
As she spoke, Sinor seemed to realize something, glanced at the guards behind Qi Jiu, and suddenly smiled. "Could this be the young lady who just returned as the heir of your Delin family?"
His gaze lingered brazenly on the girl's body, his eyes filled with a predatory look; anyone who didn't know better would think that Qi Jiu was naked.
That's disgusting!
Before the girl could react, Mengling and Xilin walked directly in front of her, blocking Sinor's view.
His expression was very serious.
"Sir, please have some self-respect!"
Rongman was already holding back her anger. Even though she didn't like Qi Jiu that much now, Qi Jiu was still the heir of their Delin family. Such a status was not something that others could bully.
"Mr. Snorr, please watch your behavior!"
Sensing the change in the atmosphere around her, Sinor looked away, somewhat reluctantly.
“Alright, but Miss Rongman, I hope you have a reason that can convince me. I don’t want to have come all this way for nothing.”
Sinor shrugged. He hadn't wanted to come all this way, but Rongman hadn't said on the phone, "You'll regret it if you don't come back," so he wouldn't have come all this way.
Rongman pursed her lips and turned her gaze to Qijiu.
"I'm the one you're talking to."
Qi Jiu suddenly spoke up, startling Sinor. "You want to talk to me? The news of the heir was just released, and you've already taken back power? Fine, then let me see what your Delin family heir is capable of."
His words were meant to sow discord. Rongman was currently hot-tempered, but having been in the international business world for so long, she still retained her rationality.
"Let alone power, the entire Delin family will belong to her in the future. Where does this talk of seizing power come from? It's perfectly normal for her to be the one negotiating this contract now."
Sinor stopped talking, and seeing this, Qi Jiu didn't want to waste any more time.
“Mr. Sinor, the delivery is about to be completed. Not only have you doubled the price, but you've also drastically reduced the quantity of weapons. I don't think any arms dealer would do business like that.”
She looked at Sinor and smiled brightly; her current appearance was completely different from how she looked when she was playing games.
"I wonder if someone is behind this?"
Although I didn't want to think this way, the price of weapons had just doubled as soon as the news of the heir was released, making it hard not to think that way.
Sinor was taken aback and remained silent.
The girl laughed. "It seems I guessed right? The person behind you is probably after me, isn't he? It seems the Delin family has become a thorn in his side."
"Does it matter whether it is or not right now? I think you should know the current situation of the Delin family. The Delin family has only talked to our family. If you don't want these weapons, do you have any other options?"
He smiled confidently, showing great certainty about the matter.
Qi Jiu found it somewhat laughable. "So you did this because you grasped this point?"
The two were talking like this, which made Rongman, who was standing nearby, a little anxious. Qi Lin, on the other hand, remained calm and watched the two play chess.
“Miss Heiress, are you wasting your time? I don’t have that much time to spare. I can’t have come all this way for nothing. If you don’t offer something of value, the price might…”
Sinor looked a little impatient.
“Mr. Sinor, I just want to ask you today, are you really going to go this far? Our Delin family may not be at its peak, but we are not ants to be crushed.”
If they were to compromise now, it would be tantamount to self-degradation.
If word got out, it would not only lower the status of the Delin family, but also make them seem like pushovers.
At that point, it won't just be a matter of dignity; we'll also face provocations from all sorts of people.
"But do you have any other options now? Your Delin family's guard is strong, but what use is it if they have no weapons? Can mortal bodies withstand weapons?"
As she spoke, Sinor glanced at the bodyguard behind her. The bodyguard understood and quickly stepped forward.
As they extended their daggers at Qi Jiu, Meng Ling and Xi Lin stepped in front of her, both on high alert.
"Mr. Sinor, you've gone too far by trying to harm our heir within the Delin family!"
Rongman never expected Sinor to be so bold, and she stood up abruptly in anger. Her hand had already reached for the dagger hidden at her waist.
Qing Shuang's expression changed as well, and Qi Lin had already reached for the gun at his waist.
Qi Jiu, the person in question, nonchalantly nudged the two people in front of her in the lower back, signaling them to look away.
"Are you so certain that you will drive our Delin family into a corner? Are you so certain that you will be the ultimate winner?"
"Otherwise, what other options do you have? Currently, we are the only ones willing to cooperate with you. Suddenly canceling the cooperation now would be a breach of credibility. Are there any other arms dealers who would cooperate with you?"
