Chapter 381: Who Does President Lu Want?

Yet, Qiao Yin didn’t even spare a glance at Lu Lingche, treating him as if he were a stranger.

She quietly stayed by Dongfang Mu’s side, playing the role of a mere assistant.

However, Dongfang Mu was already adept at handling such situations. He didn’t pay any mind to Lu Lingche’s icy expression, reaching out to shake hands with Wan An, the head of Wanann Finance.

“Mr. Wan, if it’s an acquisition, there should be several competitors, shouldn’t there? If only Shengling Group is involved, what if they deceive you?”

Unable to suppress his doubt, Wan An turned to look at Lu Lingche. Seeing the cold indifference on Lingche’s face, with a show of courage, he spoke, “Young Master Mu, the thing is, Shengling Group was the first to contact us and they seemed genuinely interested. We have decided to conduct the acquisition with them. As for you…”

“What, does Mr. Wan look down on the Eastern Empire?”

“No, not at all!”

“So, it’s me whom you look down upon then?”

“Not at all, Young Master Mu must be joking!”

Wan An was breaking out in cold sweat. Being just a financial company’s owner, how could he dare to offend someone like Young Master Mu?

He sent a pleading look to Lu Lingche.

Lu Lingche finally shifted his gaze away from Qiao Yin, his voice icy, “Dongfang Mu, are you planning on snatching away my project, again?”

With a beaming smile, Dongfang Mu spoke, “President Lu, what are you talking about? This is merely competition. The competent one gets the project; if one loses, then they honor the gamble, fair and square!”

In the past, Lu Lingche had never considered him a threat, but he had been tricked by Dongfang Mu, causing their group to suffer a loss of several billion.

Even now, Lu Mingzhen would bring it up to scold him.

So, this time, he did not make the same mistake of underestimating his competition.

“Shengling Group has already reached an initial acquisition intention with Wanann Finance, you’re too late.”

“It’s never too late to start a business.”

Dongfang Mu casually pulled out a chair and sat down, “Mr. Wan, I can offer a higher price, would you consider reconsidering?”

Upon hearing him willing to spend more, Wan An became uncertain. But he dared not show it in front of Lu Lingche, and suppressed his thoughts, “The offer from the Shengling Group is quite substantial already.”

“Apart from a higher acquisition price, we, the Eastern Empire, can also offer stronger cyber-security technical support. I believe Mr. Wan is aware that our corporation, because of its superior cyber-security technology, has snatched the Siya Automobiles project that originally belonged to Shengling Group. Even Siya Automobiles have chosen us. Are you sure you don’t want to reconsider?”

Of course, Wan An knew about Siya Automobiles being taken over by the Eastern Empire.

And he had also heard that Siya Automobiles had recently overcome a new technical barrier which made their new energy vehicles safer.

In this matter, the Eastern Empire had indeed contributed significantly.

Sitting at the head of the table, Lu Lingche suddenly spoke, “Dongfang Mu, you dare brag about your mediocre cyber-security technology here?”

Dongfang Mu casually cleaned his ears, “President Lu, what did you say? You said we’re mediocre?”

“Yes, mediocre.”

“In that case, let’s have a little competition!”

“You’re on.”

Lu Lingche agreeing so easily made Dongfang Mu somewhat suspicious.

He knew very well that the Eastern Empire had an ace card – Godkiller.

Why did he still want to have a competition?

Dongfang Mu tentatively asked, “If we win the competition, will you withdraw from the acquisition?”

Lu Lingche looked unconcerned: “If you lose, not only will you have to withdraw from the acquisition, but you’ll also have to give me someone.”

Instinctively, Dongfang Mu glanced at Qiao Yin, and then asked with a smile, “Who does President Lu want? Surely, you can’t have taken a fancy to my assistant?”

“I don’t want your assistant.”

“Then who do you want?”

“I want Godkiller.”
