After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 367: Plot (9) The Little Man Gets His Will



Chapter 367

After the results came out.

Luo Si did not believe it at all.

She was somewhat excited.

According to reason, An's bid for the project this time would definitely not fail.

The plan and price had been pushed to the extreme.

If it failed like this, the only explanation was that there was inside information involved.

At that moment, she saw An Nuan stand up from her seat and ask very respectfully, "You just announced that our An's company scored 5 points less than Gu's company and lost the bid. I'm very curious where exactly An's company fell short?"

Everyone present also looked at An Nuan.

They didn't expect that An Nuan would directly ask about it on the spot.

Most people would be embarrassed beyond words in this situation, but An Nuan looked completely composed.

Gu YanXuan gave a cold laugh and said sarcastically, "What's wrong, still not convinced?"

"That's not it," An Nuan turned her head to look at Gu YanXuan, "Of course I admit defeat fair and square, I just want to know where exactly An's company fell short so I can learn from it."

"Huh," Gu YanXuan laughed disdainfully.

She knew her brother could not possibly lose to someone like An Nuan.

Sooner or later, their family would ruin this woman!

"Is that okay?" An Nuan asked the staff member.

The staff discussed it.

A person in charge stood up and said, "In the interest of fairness, we are also willing to announce the detailed scores of each bidding proposal. If the other three groups have no objection, I won't go over them individually here. Since An's company really wants to know where they lost points, I'll inform them of the areas they lost points. Actually we felt the proposals from both An's company and Gu's company were eye-opening, and the two proposals even had similarities in their creative elements, it was very difficult for us to determine a clear winner. As for why An's company ultimately scored 95 points while Gu's company scored 100 points, it was mainly the quoted price that made the difference."

An Nuan already knew Gu Yan Sheng must have manipulated the pricing.

"An's company quoted 10 billion, while Gu's company quoted 9.9 billion. The 1 billion difference resulted in a 5 point deduction for An's company," the person in charge said bluntly.

An Nuan nodded slightly.

At that moment she also looked towards Gu's group, and said to Gu WenQuan, "When An's company gave our quoted price, we had already minimized the profit margin, operating on the principle of building the city's infrastructure to support public welfare undertakings, basically not intending to profit from this project at all. Yet I didn't expect Gu's company was still able to quote an even lower price."

"Why can't our Gu's company have the same idea if that was your intention?" Gu WenQuan stood up from his seat, "We also didn't plan to profit from this project, so we put forth the minimum cost for construction! As a native of Qing City, there's nothing wrong with building our own hometown."

An Nuan smiled, which served as acknowledgement of Gu WenQuan's reply.

She didn't say anything more.

The bidding meeting ended.

An Nuan brought Luo Si and An Hao out.

An Hao secretly rejoiced to himself. Of course he saw everything clearly.

Yet he pretended as if nothing was discovered.

The three of them walked out of the planning hall entrance.

At the entrance, Gu's family was surrounded by reporters.

Apparently the bidding results had already been leaked to the media, and everyone wanted to interview to get the latest news.

As An Nuan walked by, she heard Gu WenYuan say to the reporters, "Gu's company being able to win the Nanwan New City project is truly a pleasant surprise for us. We didn't expect that we would actually defeat An's company and secure the project. An's company is the benchmark for the construction industry after all. This success really caught me by surprise."

His words sounded very sincere on the surface, but were actually deliberately mocking An's company's incompetence, saying that even a newcomer like himself could defeat them, how could they still call themselves the industry benchmark.

"Although it's a surprise, it's not completely unexpected either. For this project, our Gu's company worked 7 days a week, putting in overtime everyday, the project team worked overnight frequently just to come up with the best design plan. So effort will always be rewarded, all the hard work we put in has finally paid off with the results we wanted!"

The implication was that An's company did not put their full effort into this matter, which was why they lost the bid.

"Our quoted price this time was also exceptionally low. Gu's company has always been dedicated to public welfare undertakings and building our hometown. Gu's company truly had no choice but to take on this project..."

An Nuan walked past them, expressionless.

Even someone as stoic as Luo Si couldn't help feeling irritated hearing Gu WenQuan's words.

It was clearly adding insult to injury.

But seeing that An Nuan had no reaction, she could only follow her and leave.

Sitting in the car.

Luo Si really couldn't stand it anymore. "What's so great about Gu WenQuan?! Just because he won the bid, does he have to be so arrogant? What was the meaning of everything he said to the media just now? Even if he succeeded, he shouldn't trample on others like that!"

An Nuan did not respond.

An Hao was happy on the side.

Everything had gone much more smoothly than he expected.

Initially he still feared An Nuan somewhat, worried that the truth would be exposed.

But now it seemed An Nuan was nothing to fuss over.

After Luo Si complained angrily for a bit and saw that An Nuan had no reaction, she gradually kept quiet as well.

She also knew An Nuan must be feeling awful inside, so she didn't want to add to her troubles.

The car arrived at the company.

An Nuan returned to her office.

An Hao also returned to his own office.

As soon as he returned, he couldn't restrain his eager mood and hurriedly dialed Gu Yan Sheng's number, "Success!"

Gu Yan Sheng had naturally already received this news long ago.

At this time, his mood was naturally excellent.

"You're really more capable. If it wasn't for your idea, An Nuan would have succeeded again! Just thinking about her flaunting arrogantly after her success made me angry! Now things are good, let's see how An Nuan explains this to the board. They all determined that victory was certain for this project, now that they've failed, I'm elated just imagining it!" An Hao made no attempt to conceal his delight.

"Just this bit of ability?" Gu Yan Sheng said mockingly, "This is just a drizzle. As long as you cooperate well with me, I'll hand all of An's company over to you in due time."

"Really?!" An Hao was already brimming with excitement.

Gu Yan Sheng regarded him with a trace of contempt.

It was an innate sense of superiority, looking down on everyone.

In the time prior, because of An Nuan's suppression, coupled suddenly with Ye JingHuai's rising limelight that truly made him lose confidence for a period, but in this moment, his confidence was in full force!

"Of course it's true," Gu Yan Sheng said indifferently, "No more to say, I'm busy with other things. Don't show too much happiness to make people notice anything."

"Okay."

Gu Yan Sheng hung up the phone.

The smugness on his face made no attempt at concealment.

Just thinking about An Nuan's embarrassment today already made him extremely elated.

He thought for a bit, then called An Nuan.
