Chapter 915: Chapter 917: A Slap in the Face
"Why?" Xie Jin was completely at a loss. They had been negotiating smoothly before, so why did everything change all of a sudden?
Regarding Pei Yicheng’s project, Xie Jin was very enthusiastic. His wife had often mentioned Liunian’s perfume. Knowing he was going to build a facility for the Liunian Factory, she repeatedly reminded him to maintain a good relationship with the boss. That way, they could always be the first to buy the perfume in the future.
Preferably, they could get their hands on new perfumes that others could not buy.
Xie Jin’s wife loved perfume more than anything. Wherever she went, she liked to buy perfume. This time, she accidentally discovered Liunian Perfume and fell in love with it. She particularly liked the name, "So-called Yi Ren, by the water," and was fond of the Liunian Perfume bottle.
Moreover, Xie Jin was very impressed with the design of the Liunian Factory this time. If he could build this facility, he would feel a great sense of accomplishment and happiness.
"Mr. Pei, we can continue negotiating. I can lower my fee; I really like your factory." Xie Jin didn’t care much about how much he earned; he just wanted to do what he liked.
"Sorry."
Pei Yicheng pursed his lips, showing no sign of conceding.
"Mr. Pei, can I know why?" Xie Jin sensed there was something he wasn’t aware of. He repeatedly assured, "I would absolutely use the best materials to build the factory."
"Mr. Pei."
Mr. Song walked in cheerfully, holding a bag full of documents in his hand. When he received the call, he was overjoyed, thinking this big business wouldn’t involve him.
Upon hearing Mr. Song’s voice, Xie Jin’s face darkened, and he chose to remain silent. With Mr. Song’s arrival, it was clear that Mr. Pei had already made preparations in advance.
Before leaving, Xie Jin specifically asked Ling Dong, though he wanted to ask Pei Yicheng. However, Pei Yicheng gave him no opportunity, especially with Mr. Song present, he wouldn’t humiliate himself.
Ling Dong subtly mentioned that it was related to Xie Liang.
Xie Jin was shocked and, after offering money for more information, learned that Xie Jin had his eyes on Mr. Pei’s girlfriend.
No wonder, no wonder things were almost settled before Mr. Pei suddenly wanted to change partners!
So that’s how it was.
Xie Jin’s face turned dark as the bottom of a pot. Upon inquiry, he found out it was instigated by the Gu Family. His anger was indescribable!
Upon arriving home, Xie Liang excitedly said, "Dad, I want to get married. I’ve taken a liking to a girl."
"Pa!"
What greeted Xie Liang was a resounding slap from Xie Jin.
Xie Liang was completely stunned by the blow.
"Xie Jin, what kind of madness is this? Liang wants to get married, why did you hit him?" Xie Liang’s mother, protective as ever, shielded Xie Liang behind her, glaring angrily at Xie Jin with an expression that demanded a proper explanation.
"Marriage?" The word only fueled Xie Jin’s rage further.
Xie Liang’s mother frowned, saying, "She’s the youngest daughter of the Gu Family. Although she grew up in the countryside, Liang likes her. What’s wrong with bringing her home as his wife?"
In Xie Liang’s mother’s eyes, as long as her son liked her, that was enough reason to bring her home.
"Hmph, why don’t you find out if she has a boyfriend and whether she’s willing to marry your son?" Xie Jin couldn’t help but retort upon seeing Xie Liang’s mother being so protective, "Your son is not so desperate as to just marry anyone indiscriminately without knowing if he’s getting taken advantage of!"
