Chapter 91 [91] There have never been any conditions.
"Why should I take over your store?" Mr. Chen asked curiously, "Aren't you Mr. Shen's man?"
"Why, is he so poor that he can't even afford your stores?"
Tang Yuanyuan remained calm and said, "Mr. Shen isn't involved in this business. Your Yunduo store is developing very well. If you take over my store, wouldn't that be a great advantage?"
Mr. Chen took out a cigar with amusement and held it between his fingers: "Are you flattering me?"
"You don't think I'm a rag collector and you can just say a few words and I'll take over your shop, right?"
Tang Yuanyuan: "Of course my shop isn't shabby, otherwise, Mr. Chen wouldn't be able to copy mine exactly, right?"
Mr. Chen has never been in charge of this small business. It was handled by his subordinates. He just checked the financial statements every quarter, but the performance was not as expected.
"You're still as sharp-tongued as ever."
"Before, you clearly disdained me, but now you come to me for help. Let me guess, why did you leave Mr. Shen and come to me instead?"
"Were you abandoned by her?"
Tang Yuanyuan wiggled a finger amusedly and said, "Mr. Chen, you're wrong. I, Tang Yuanyuan, never ask for help from others."
"On the surface, I'm looking for you to buy the store, but in reality, I'm giving you an opportunity."
"Otherwise, if I recover, I'll eventually shut down your shop and kick you out of the cake market. You won't get a share of this pie."
"On the contrary, if you take over my shop, I will help you take it public, and you will have another listed company under your name."
Mr. Chen laughed out loud when he heard this. In his entire life, no one, not even men, let alone women, had ever dared to talk to him like this. The only exception was Shen Yu.
He seemed to understand a little bit why Shen Yu could respect Tang Yuanyuan so much.
She looks a lot like Shen Yu.
He suddenly remembered that a long time ago, it was this little girl who made him so angry that his teeth itched.
"You little girl, you have a rather arrogant tone."
"I'm looking forward to seeing how you bankrupt my shop and drive me out of the cake market."
Tang Yuanyuan shrugged, scooped a spoonful of truffle jade tofu for herself and ate it without saying a word about the merger and acquisition. She was as relaxed as if she was eating alone.
After all, this meal is quite expensive.
Mr. Chen had never seen a woman who didn't take him seriously enough. Even when they were on a plane, the flight attendant would deliberately squat down to show him her figure.
Tang Yuanyuan's original appearance was only 70%, but he suddenly felt that she was 100% beautiful.
Mr. Chen lit a cigar and puffed it frivolously in Tang Yuanyuan's direction. "I'm very generous to my women," he said with a smile. "If you're willing to be my eighth mistress, I can consider taking over your shop and giving you a house. For the rest of your life, you can just serve me and never have to work hard again. You'll have endless pocket money for the rest of your life."
Tang Yuanyuan put down her chopsticks and waved away the smoke in front of her with a cold look. Fortunately, the table was big, otherwise, she would have overturned the table: "I have a bad temper. I don't like to serve others. I prefer to fight with men in the business world."
"Also, I don't like promiscuous men at all. You're not attractive to me."
Tang Yuanyuan's jawline was tense, and a hint of disgust flashed across her already cold appearance.
Mr. Chen thought of the Persian cat.
He always likes to lie lazily on the mat and ignores his owner, unlike dogs who would come up to him wagging their tails to attract attention as soon as he enters the house.
Persian cats are born to be held high in the palm of your hand.
Compared to a cat, Tang Yuanyuan has the sharpness of a wild cat, like a pungent chili pepper.
Mr. Chen suddenly felt that his mistresses were boring, and a burning desire to conquer them arose in his blood.
He began to understand why Shen Yu looked at this girl differently.
Mr. Chen was not angry. Instead, he slumped back in his chair and said casually, "Congratulations, woman. I'm interested in you."
Tang Yuanyuan stared at Mr. Chen's curious gaze, puffed out her cheeks, and impatiently picked up a few chopsticks of food that interested her and put them into the rice bowl. She also did not forget to pour some of her favorite vegetarian loofah soup on herself and mixed it on the rice. She finished the rice in a few mouthfuls and put down the bowl.
The whole process took only three minutes, and she still had rice in her mouth, not caring about her image at all.
"I'm full. Bye."
She stood up from her chair, took out a bag of cash from her jeans, put the money for the meal on the table, and turned around gracefully without any reluctance.
Mr. Chen was simply mesmerized by this look of disregard for him. He chased after her and grabbed Tang Yuanyuan's wrist: "You are the first woman to reject me."
"I'm even more obsessed with you."
Tang Yuanyuan slapped him and said, "Mr. Chen, please respect yourself."
*
Here, Qian Tingting got off the car and immediately went to the management office of Wing On Department Store, but was told by the staff that Shen Yu would not be coming today.
Qian Tingting was puzzled. Tang Yuanyuan told her that today was the day when Shen Yu inspected the store. He would come here to inspect the store on this day every month.
How is it different?
Qian Tingting wondered if she was new and didn't know the rules. "Maybe you're mistaken. Mr. Shen does come here to inspect the store every month."
The uniformed staff member explained with a smile, "Mr. Shen used to come to inspect the lines every month, but he hasn't come in person in over a year."
Qian Tingting's heart skipped a beat.
Before they parted, she asked Tang Yuanyuan, "Mr. Shen has always been very caring towards you. Since you want to ask him for help, why don't you go to him in person?"
Tang Yuanyuan tapped his fingertips on the steering wheel and said, "I offended him."
"He wanted to invest in Yunduo before, but I thought too much and didn't trust him enough, which wasted his hard work."
"I'm not sure he still wants to help me."
Qian Tingting didn't catch the hidden meaning in the words. She was first shocked, then incredulous. "Mr. Shen has always taken good care of you. Why don't you want his investment?"
"If you had chosen him, you wouldn't have fallen so hard."
Tang Yuanyuan: "You are using the known ending now to work backwards, just like taking an exam and retaking it after seeing the standard answers. The problem is, I didn't know he had no selfish motives at the time, so I just assumed he was wrong."
"If I go to him directly for help, it would be very cheap, okay? Besides, if he is unwilling to help me, I will be even more embarrassed."
Qian Tingting was stunned: "Have you hidden it?"
"Which one?"
"You beat him like that?"
Tang Yuanyuan: "...It's like being in love, understand?"
Qian Tingting was silent for a while.
"I didn't even know about this."
Tang Yuanyuan: "No one knows, and I haven't told anyone, but all of this is in the past. If you see him at Wing On Department Store, just pretend to casually reveal the situation in the store, and don't say anything else."
"If he's willing to help me, he'll naturally ask for details. If he doesn't respond, don't go on."
She laughed at herself, "There's really no hope. A proud man like Mr. Shen probably won't help me anymore."
"It's been over a year since this happened. Maybe he already has a new girlfriend and has forgotten all about this. It's even possible that he got married."
She said that getting involved in a relationship between a man and a woman costs money!
If it weren't for that messy relationship back then, she would have definitely looked for Shen Yu first, and she wouldn't have been strangled by Tang An, that grandson.
Qian Tingting became listless again: "I understand, I won't say more."
Tang Yuanyuan patted the steering wheel and became optimistic: "Don't be sad, there is still a small chance with Mr. Chen. Besides, if I can't count on it, the worst that can happen is that I can start over again!"
"I'll go back to selling gift boxes."
Qian Tingting scratched her palm with her thumb. More than a year ago, that is to say, Shen Yu was not here to inspect the store, but because Tang Yuanyuan was here.
A long time ago, Shen Yu outsourced his business to Tang Yuanyuan again and again just because he liked her, right?
She decided to go to the company to find Shen Yu.
Just ask for help in your own name, maybe he will help you?
Qian Tingting immediately ran out of Wing On Department Store and took a taxi to Platinum Company. She remembered that Assistant Fan was here and he must be able to contact President Fan.
Unfortunately, Assistant Fan was not in the company.
The beautiful woman at the front desk politely said, "Ma'am, Mr. Fan is on a business trip and won't be back for a while. Please register your information here."
Qian Tingting couldn't wait any longer. "My matter really can't wait. Please give him a call. My boss knows him very well and he will definitely talk to me."
The receptionist remained unmoved and continued to smile politely: "Sorry, I don't have Mr. Fan's phone number, so I can't help you make this call. Since your boss is familiar with Mr. Fan, please ask her to contact Mr. Fan directly."
Qian Tingting could only walk out of the office building disappointedly. After thinking about it, she felt unwilling and went to the front desk of Shen's again, but still could not get through the door.
So it’s so difficult to meet Mr. Shen?
If he wasn't interested in Tang Yuanyuan, they wouldn't even be able to see him.
Qian Tingting was at a loss. She walked out of Shen's building in a daze and took a taxi back to the company dejectedly. Unexpectedly, she met Shen Yu.
He came out of their company!
Shen Yu's face was stern: "Where is she?"
Qian Tingting was stunned: "You, you know?"
Shen Yu nodded. He had always been eyeing Yun Duo's brand for the company's afternoon tea, but today the secretary had changed the brand. When he asked, he found out that Yun Duo said it was out of stock, so he had to switch to another one.
Tang Yuanyuan has always been very meticulous in managing the store's affairs and it is impossible for her to make such a mistake.
He went to several Yun Duo stores and found that all the cakes were out of stock. Although the store clerks said that it was because of the hot sales, they could not tell the supply date. Shen Yu knew that something must have happened to Yun Duo.
When we drove to the office again, sure enough, something went wrong. Li Mu said that Tang Yuanyuan went to see Mr. Chen!
That's a pervert.
It turns out that I have had feelings for Tang Yuanyuan.
"Do you know where they eat?"
Qian Tingting: "I know, it's at the Songhelou store on Changjiang Road."
Shen Yu walked to the front of the car with his long legs in three or two steps, and the car door closed with a loud "bang".
Qian Tingting came back to her senses, opened the back door and got in. Before she could sit down, the car had already sped away.
In the rearview mirror, she could see Shen Yu's jawline was tense and his whole body was cold.
Qian Tingting swallowed and asked, "Are you going to look for Yuanyuan?"
"Um."
Shen Yu was in no mood to talk now, so he drove the car like a plane.
Qian Tingting couldn't help but say, "Yuanyuan is not that kind of girl. She just wants to convince Mr. Chen. Nothing will happen."
"I know."
Qian Tingting saw that his car was still driving at the highest speed without slowing down at all.
"Mr. Shen, how did you know that something happened in the store?"
Shen Yu pursed his lips into a line and stared at the traffic light impatiently.
No answer.
The security guard at Songhelou stopped him and said, "Sorry, sir, parking is not allowed here."
Shen Yu directly threw the Mercedes-Benz car keys over and said, "Go park it."
His slender fingertips kept pressing the elevator buttons, his eyes fixed on the red font. Qian Tingting had never seen Shen Yu lose his composure like this before.
The elevator door opened with a bang, Shen Yu strode out and turned the corner.
Tang Yuanyuan slapped Mr. Chen in the face: "Mr. Chen, please respect yourself."
Mr. Chen: "You dare to hit me?"
Tang Yuanyuan: "Of course I dare to hit you."
Mr. Chen: "You are an ordinary citizen who is about to go bankrupt. Who gave you the courage to hit me?"
"I gave her the confidence," Shen Yu strode over, pulling Tang Yuanyuan behind him. His cold eyes met Mr. Chen's. He pulled out his wallet from his suit pocket, took out a check for 500,000 yuan, and stuffed it into Mr. Chen's chest pocket. "This is my compensation to you."
"Please calm down, Mr. Chen."
Mr. Chen was so angry that he tore up the check and glared at him fiercely: "Shen Yu, you have guts."
He left after saying this.
Tang Yuanyuan never thought that Shen Yu would come here in person. "Thank you."
Shen Yu turned on his toes and looked at her face to face: "Why didn't you come to me, but chose to go to Mr. Chen? You know very well that he won't trust you."
Tang Yuanyuan no longer felt comfortable and tucked her hair behind her ears: "I can't just sit there and wait to die. Besides, I don't think you will help me after what I did to you."
Shen Yu glanced at Qian Tingting and said, "You go back first."
Qian Tingting saw Tang Yuanyuan nod, walked back, and when she reached the elevator, she heard Shen Yu's magnetic voice, which sounded as beautiful as a song.
"I will always lend you a hand whenever you need me."
She couldn't help but turn her head and saw that the man's eyes were fixed on the girl, unwilling to look away at all.
Even though his kindness was betrayed and he was kicked out, he still cared about her.
She was the only one in his eyes.
Tang Yuanyuan was burned by the scorching gaze, and it took her a while to come back to her senses. She lowered her eyelids and said, "This time, the risk is quite high. I may need to start from scratch and build a new brand. You might even lose money."
Shen Yu: "No need to start from scratch, the clouds can be saved."
Tang Yuanyuan looked up in surprise: "What do you mean?"
"Can your lawyer help me win the case?"
Shen Yu: "No need for a lawyer."
"Let me ask you, have you registered the Yun Duo trademark?"
Tang Yuanyuan was stunned by the question: "But, I registered Yun Duo's store with the Industry and Commerce Bureau. Isn't it mine?"
Shen Yu laughed: "A trademark is different from a store. They are two different property rights. In my country's commercial law, the trademark owner is the trademark owner."
"The trademark of Yun Duo is under my name."
Tang Yuanyuan: "So, you can ask me to take Yun Duo back, and the contract between me and the factory is actually invalid because Yun Duo doesn't belong to me?"
Shen Yu: "Yes."
Tang Yuanyuan jumped three feet high, and then thought of an important question: "But all my stores have been transformed. I now have enough energy to support the cake sales."
Shen Yu: "I'll buy a central kitchen for you to use."
Tang Yuanyuan: "I'm sorry."
Shen Yu said, "We don't talk about this between us."
Tang Yuanyuan: "Then if you help me this time, are there any conditions?"
Shen Yu's dark pupils reflected her figure: "There have never been any conditions." I just want to love you!
Tang Yuanyuan took a step closer, raised her head, and looked at his handsome face: "Do you still like me?"
Shen Yu: "I haven't changed at all, and I plan to never change for the rest of my life."
Tang Yuanyuan stood on tiptoe and kissed him lightly on the lips.
The soft touch, like ice cream, passes over the lips, leaving a sweet aftertaste.
Shen Yu's eyes seemed to have been washed by rain, staring at her blankly: "What do you mean?"
Tang Yuanyuan: "I want to date you."
Shen Yu: "Is it a transaction, or is it because--"
He had a difficulty speaking in his throat. He was 24 when he met her, and now he is 30.
It's been six years.
My heart was beating as fast as a drum. I had a vague guess, but I was so happy that I couldn't believe it.
The words were stuck in my throat with great difficulty, and after trying several times, they finally came out: "Like?"
Tang Yuanyuan's eyes moistened slightly: "What do you think?"
Shen Yu: "I, I don't dare to think about it."
