As he spoke, Darius crossed his legs and said in a condescending manner, "If this is all the sincerity Mr. Wen has, then I think there's no need to continue the cooperation."
Seeing this, Wen Huaiyan's gaze darkened slightly: "Then how do you want to divide it?"
Darius twitched the corners of his mouth, slowly raised his head, and said, word by word, "At most, a 30/70 split, I get 70%, you get 30%."
"impossible!"
Wen Huaiyan snorted coldly and refused without even thinking.
Li Ruo found this somewhat unbelievable.
A 30/70 split... This is no longer cooperation; it's clearly an attempt to make the Wen family his slaves.
Unexpectedly, Wen Huaiyan refused so decisively. Darius's face immediately darkened, and he said with some displeasure, "Mr. Wen, if you really want to cooperate, you'd better do as I say. As you know, security in our country H has never been very good. What if one day my men can't stand it anymore and impulsively launch a surprise attack like they did at the hotel yesterday? I'm afraid Mr. Wen won't be able to handle it."
His tone was cold, and his gaze shifted slightly, landing on Li Ruo.
Although he wasn't present yesterday, he was fully aware of what happened.
The moment the incident occurred, Wen Huaiyan protected the woman without hesitation.
Their relationship is not simple...
Noticing his cold gaze, Li Ruo paused, then suddenly realized what was going on.
So it turns out he was behind yesterday's attack?
Realizing this, Li Ruo couldn't help but feel a little worried.
After all, this Darius seems harmless on the surface, but he is actually so dirty behind the scenes. If we don't agree to this cooperation, who knows what he might do if he is pushed too far.
However, Wen Huaiyan was not intimidated by Darius's threat and remained unyielding: "Fifty-fifty is fifty-fifty. This has always been the principle and bottom line of cooperation for the Wen family. We have never liked to take advantage of others, but others should not even think about taking advantage of us!"
"As expected of President Wen, he remains so tough no matter what..."
Darius seemed to have anticipated that he wouldn't back down easily, and immediately chuckled, saying meaningfully, "Speaking of which, the beauty beside you is truly stunning, with such a hot figure, she's really captivating. But don't blame me for not warning you, this place is not like your country, you'd better be careful, if one day you get kidnapped by these wolf-like men, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his bodyguards behind him burst into laughter, the sarcasm of which was self-evident.
Wen Huaiyan's face immediately turned ugly.
Although he had long known that Darius was a despicable and shameless man, he never expected that the other party would actually target Li Ruo.
If he were in the country, he wouldn't be afraid of such threats.
But now that they're on the other side's turf, if he doesn't agree, then Li Ruo...
Seeing that Wen Huaiyan hadn't responded for a while, Darius impatiently urged, "Well, Mr. Wen, have you made up your mind? I have something to do later."
Forget it, I can't let her get dragged into this!
Thinking this, Wen Huaiyan was about to speak, but Li Ruo saw his hesitation at a glance and immediately sneered, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Darius, but I am not afraid."
Having risen to this level, Darius's hands are certainly not clean.
Normally, as soon as he opens his mouth, ordinary people are so scared that they don't even dare to raise their heads, let alone refute him.
He hadn't expected that Wen Huaiyan, this woman, would have such courage!
He raised an eyebrow, his dark and cold eyes instantly locking onto Li Ruo: "Miss, I guess you don't know yet, this place is not like your country, it's very chaotic, what if something goes wrong..."
He deliberately dragged out his words at the end, instantly exuding an oppressive aura.
But Li Ruo's expression didn't change at all. She chuckled and said, "Since Mr. Darius said that our country is safe, then he should know how well our country protects every citizen. If something happens to me in H country for no reason, I think the embassy will definitely not let it go, especially... when facing some criminals and evil forces!"
Her voice was soft as she spoke, slowly raising her head, her eyes filled with unwavering determination.
As the two locked eyes, Darius's face suddenly lit up with interest.
"Mr. Wen, it's fine if you don't agree with my proposed 30/70 split. It's just that you have your principles and I have mine."
He turned his head and suddenly said, "But if you give this woman to me, I'll agree to your 50/50 split. That way, we can still discuss our cooperation. What do you think?"
Neither of them expected him to make such a request. Wen Huaiyan was slightly taken aback, then suddenly stood up: "You're asking for death!"
Stared at by those cold eyes, Darius felt a chill run through his body, as if he were being targeted by some wild beast, causing him to instinctively back away.
Seeing his cowering appearance, Wen Huaiyan sneered, his eyes filled with disdain.
Seeing this, Darius seemed to realize that he had lost his composure and immediately became angry and embarrassed: "Wen Huaiyan, don't you want to cooperate anymore?"
