Chapter 762
The Passion of the Beautiful CEO
She decided to come here on a whim, and meeting Xu Bo'an here was an even bigger surprise. She would never believe that Xu Bo'an was lying to her.
Even if Xu Bo'an really wanted to deceive him, Gao Yunshu would be willing, since Xu Bo'an had saved his father the day before yesterday, so he would consider it as repaying Xu Bo'an's life-saving grace.
In contrast, Zhu Xiaolei and Gao Yunshu's relationship was merely that they played together when they were young, and at most they could be considered acquaintances. In reality, their relationship was not that close.
At this moment, in Gao Yunshu's mind, Zhu Xiaolei and Xu Bo'an were not even in the same league. Xu Bo'an was her benefactor, while Zhu Xiaolei was just someone she was somewhat familiar with. It goes without saying which one was more important.
Gao Yunshu looked at Zhu Xiaolei coldly and said, "Why do you keep interrupting me when I'm speaking!"
Zhu Xiaolei pointed at Xu Bo'an and said to Gao Yunshu with a fawning smile, "President Gao, this man is really a swindler. I was just worried that you would be deceived by him. I didn't mean anything else. Please see the truth."
Hearing Zhu Xiaolei's words, Gao Yunshu said angrily to Zhu Xiaolei, "Heh, you really know how to flatter yourself, don't you? Do you need to remind me time and time again whether he's a swindler or not? Do I not have the ability to discern, and do I need you to teach me?"
Seeing that Gao Yunshu was angry, Zhu Xiaolei quickly said tactfully, "Mr. Gao, I swear to God, I absolutely didn't mean that. You're the big boss, how could I be qualified to teach you? I was just worried and confused..."
Before Zhu Xiaolei could finish speaking, Gao Yunshu interrupted him, saying, "Zhu Xiaolei, I've been putting up with you for a long time. You keep interrupting our conversation and keep calling people liars. My patience has its limits. Now, please get out of my sight immediately! Don't disrupt our conversation!"
Hearing Gao Yunshu's words, Zhu Xiaolei became anxious. Given Gao Yunshu's current attitude towards him, if he left now, President Gao would definitely not come to see him again, and that high-value order would definitely fall through. If he stayed, he might still be able to negotiate later. Thinking of this, Zhu Xiaolei hurriedly said, "President Gao, I know I was wrong. I won't disturb your conversation anymore. I'll stand here quietly and wait for you!"
Gao Yunshu was thoroughly annoyed by Zhu Xiaolei and showed him no mercy, saying, "I don't want to see you right now. Stop talking nonsense and get out of here!"
Seeing Gao Yunshu's angry expression, Zhu Xiaolei had no choice but to temporarily obey Gao Yunshu in order to have any hope of salvaging his high-value order.
However, he was extremely eager for the high-value order, so as he was leaving, he said to Gao Yunshu with a fawning expression, "Okay, okay, please calm down. I'll leave right away as you say, and I'll come back to find you after you've finished talking!"
Gao Yunshu said irritably, "No need!"
Zhu Xiaolei panicked upon hearing this and said, "No... Mr. Gao, what about the business deal we agreed on before?"
Gao Yunshu looked at Zhu Xiaolei and sneered, "Oh, I see. So that's why you're so insistent on staying here. It's all about that order!"
Zhu Xiaolei nodded vigorously upon hearing Gao Yunshu's words, saying, "Yes...yes, we already discussed that business last time. So much time has passed, if I don't take it on soon, hehe...I'm afraid it will delay your work progress!"
Gao Yunshu chuckled and said, "Heh, you're quite the smooth talker. Afraid of delaying my work? I think you're just after that huge profit! Well, let me tell you straight now, that order is canceled. Don't even think about it anymore. We won't have any more cooperation in the future!"
Upon hearing that Gao Yunshu had cancelled the order, Zhu Xiaolei was instantly disheartened. He grabbed Gao Yunshu's arm and exclaimed, "No, Mr. Gao, you can't do this! We've been childhood friends, and we had an agreement beforehand!"
Gao Yunshu said, "We only talked about it verbally before, we didn't sign a contract!"
Zhu Xiaolei said, "President Gao, even if we didn't have a contract before, you are a leader of a large company. Don't you think that doing this is a breach of your credibility?"
Gao Yunshu sneered and looked at Zhu Xiaolei, saying, "Heh, don't try to pressure me with your personal reputation. It's my company, and I can cancel it whenever I want! Get out of my way!"
Zhu Xiaolei was furious when he heard Gao Yunshu say that, but he didn't dare to show his anger immediately. After all, this order from Gao Yunshu was the largest order he had received since starting his company. If he could secure this order, Zhu Xiaolei calculated that the net profit would be at least three million. Faced with such a high profit, how could Zhu Xiaolei just get angry?
Even if there was only a sliver of hope, he wouldn't give up easily. Zhu Xiaolei suppressed his anger and forced a smile as he said to Gao Yunshu, "Hehe, Mr. Gao, you misunderstood. How could I dare to use your credibility to pressure you? What I meant was that you are the boss of a large company, and naturally you have the demeanor of a high-ranking leader. You are a man of your word, and you would never go back on your promise. You told me before that your order is quite large and must start construction within the next few days at the latest. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to find suitable people in time, which would delay the construction period. If you hand over the order to me now, I guarantee that it can be completed in less than ten days. I was just anxious for you, so I spoke a little hastily. I hope you can understand!"
Gao Yunshu said, "Zhu Xiaolei, your company is smaller than an anthill. Why do you need to worry about me? You're just meddling in other people's business. I have a more suitable candidate now. Get out of here, or I'll call for help!"
Seeing that Gao Yunshu had made up his mind, Zhu Xiaolei stopped pretending and pointed at Tang Muyang and Xu Bo'an, angrily saying to Gao Yunshu, "Heh, suitable candidates? You mean them? I already said they came here to apply for security guard positions. If you don't believe me, look at that huge bunch of keys they're holding. Besides, you believe they're opening an advertising company? You dare to hire them? I think you, the big boss of this company, have lost your mind. The company is about to go under!"
Upon hearing Zhu Xiaolei's words, Tang Muyang said, "If President Gao were to entrust this task to me, I guarantee I could do it even better than you!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Xiaolei spat and said, "Heh, what an arrogant fool."
Gao Yunshu couldn't stand Zhu Xiaolei's repeated changes of attitude any longer and said, "Zhu Xiaolei, I'm telling you one more time, stop talking nonsense and get out of here, or I'll call security!"
Zhu Xiaolei sneered and looked at Gao Yunshu, saying, "Hmph, you don't need to kick me out. I'll leave on my own. Entrusting such a large order to two idiots, I want to see how long your company can last under such muddle-headed leadership. You'll have something to laugh about when it goes bankrupt!" After saying that, Zhu Xiaolei angrily left with his hands behind his back.
Tang Muyang was about to retort to Zhu Xiaolei after hearing his words, but Xu Bo'an stopped him.
In Gao Yunshu's eyes, Zhu Xiaolei was nothing more than a tiny ant, and he wouldn't affect Gao Yunshu's mood at all. After Zhu Xiaolei left, Gao Yunshu looked at Xu Bo'an and warmly extended his hand to shake hands with him, introducing himself as, "Hello, it's a pleasure to see you again. I am Gao Yunshu from Huachuang Group!"
Huachuang Group is a very large enterprise in Dongjiang, and Xu Bo'an had certainly heard of it. However, he was still quite surprised to see such a young and beautiful woman from Huachuang Group. He said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, President Gao. I am Xu Bo'an!"
After Xu Bo'an finished speaking, he pointed to Tang Muyang and said, "This is my cousin, Tang Muyang!"
President Gao also politely extended his hand and shook hands with Tang Muyang.
Then she said, "Mr. Xu, it's such a coincidence to meet you here today. I just heard you say that you're going to open an advertising company. I wonder if you would be willing to cooperate with me?"
Xu Bo'an smiled and said, "Mr. Gao, you're too kind. You've built such a large and powerful company at such a young age. It's a great honor for you to offer to cooperate with us. How could we possibly refuse to cooperate with you? It's just that we've only just chosen our office space, and we haven't even bought the office supplies yet. I'm afraid it will be at least seven or eight days before we open. I wonder if Mr. Gao can make it in time?"
Gao Yunshu said with a smile, "You are my great benefactor, so of course I have to give you a few more days! Don't worry, I just need to finish this order within a month!"
If Zhu Xiaolei were there and heard Gao Yunshu say this, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood on the spot. When he said he would give the order to him, he said it would be completed within half a month, but when he gave it to Xu Bo'an and the others, he gave them a one-month extension!
The reason Gao Yunshu entrusted this order to Xu Bo'an and his team was not because she felt indebted to him as her benefactor. How could someone who runs such a large company gamble with their own orders? Even if this order wasn't a particularly important task for Gao Yunshu, and even if she didn't do it well, it wouldn't directly affect the company's reputation, Gao Yunshu's position wasn't solely due to her charming appearance, but more importantly, her brilliant mind.
Actually, Gao Yunshu had already noticed the large bunch of keys Xu Bo'an was holding before Zhu Xiaolei mentioned it. She knew that she was one of the developers of the building, and the bunch of keys Xu Bo'an was holding belonged to the developer, while the security guards' keys were issued separately. Therefore, she didn't believe Zhu Xiaolei's words.
Although she didn't know how Xu Bo'an got the key, her intuition, based on her many years of work experience, told her that this Mr. Xu was definitely not a simple person. Even if he was just a small figure running an advertising company now, he would surely achieve great things in the future.
Adding to the fact that his father had accidentally fallen from the fourth floor last time, Xu Bo'an caught him with ease. Not only was his father completely unharmed, but Xu Bo'an was also able to stand firmly in place when he caught his father.
The fourth floor is at least a dozen meters high, and the father weighed over 100 kilograms, so the impact of the fall was enormous. An ordinary person could never withstand such an impact, but Xu Bo'an caught his father steadily as he fell from a height of over ten meters.
Because of the urgency of the situation, Gao Yunshu was only concerned about her father's safety and did not have time to think about anything else. Looking back on it later, she found it very unbelievable.
A person like that is either a professional martial artist or a superhuman; he doesn't seem like an ordinary person at all.
Therefore, considering both Xu Bo'an's abilities and his desire to repay the debt of saving his father, Gao Yunshu insisted on entrusting the order to Xu Bo'an and his team.
In this way, he would not only repay his debt of gratitude, but also have a better chance to get to know Xu Bo'an better. Even if Xu Bo'an were just an ordinary citizen, with his incredible martial arts skills, he could recruit him to be the head of the security department in his company. With such a powerful person as his company's security guard, Gao Yunshu could rest easy.
No matter how you calculate it, Gao Yunshu felt that he couldn't possibly be the one who suffered a loss.
On the other hand, Zhu Xiaolei was just relying on the fact that they were childhood friends and thought he was sure to win the order. He tried to overpower Xu Bo'an without even understanding the situation. People who jump to conclusions about others without understanding the situation are the real fools. Gao Yunshu couldn't help but feel lucky that he met Xu Bo'an today and cooperated with him. If he had chosen that fool Zhu Xiaolei, who knows what kind of trouble he would have gotten himself into later.
Xu Bo'an said, "Aren't you afraid I'll trick you?"
Gao Yunshu said with a smile, "You've helped our family so much, and we didn't even have a chance to thank you last time. Now that we've finally met, we can't miss the opportunity to thank you. Even if you've tricked me, it doesn't matter. Consider that money my reward to you."
"But I'm certain you wouldn't do that. Just based on the time you passed by my house and saved my dad, I judged you to be a very warm-hearted and kind person, definitely not the kind of person who would scam or swindle."
Xu Bo'an smiled and said, "Alright, since Ms. Gao trusts me so much, I'll take your order!"
Hearing this, Tang Muyang was overjoyed. Their company hadn't even opened yet, and they had already received a huge order. For Tang Muyang, it was like a windfall.
Gao Yunshu raised his arm, glanced at his watch, and said to Xu Bo'an, "That would be perfect. It's lunchtime now, let's go out for a meal together and settle this matter while we're at it." (End of Chapter)
