Chapter 486: Son-in-law and Mother-in-law Joining Forces!
“CEO Zhong is crude and has no manners. We’ll bear with what he says later.
After all, we need his land.”
In the car, Xu Mingzhi sipped her coffee while she briefed Pei Huai
“I understand!
Xu Mingzhi nodded. “Alright. Anyway, no matter what he says later, we’ll just think about the land.”
CEO Pei only agreed because it was his future mother-in-law’s request.
Therefore, he was not doing this for CEO Zhong’s land, but for Madam Xu.
Pei Huai said, “I’ll do whatever you say.” Xu Mingzhi expressed her satisfaction.
Immediately after, the car arrived at the venue.
It was a very luxurious golf club in the area.
Xu Mingzhi and Pei Huai changed into golf suits that the club had specially prepared for VIPs. They wore casual sports pants and white waffle Polo shirts. Pei Huai complimented Xu Mingzhi.
Xu Mingzhi smiled elegantly.
The lush green lawn stretched as far as the eye could see. Pei Huai looked at the scene in front of him and recalled the last time he played golf with Officer Wang. Su Ji was driving and swerved into the course.
He suddenly missed her.
“CEO Xu, long time no see.”
The middle-aged man’s strange voice came from not far away. Pei Huai slowly turned. He saw a middle-aged man with a beer belly walking towards them.
He had a side part on his balding head. His outfit was handmade by top designers, but it did not look luxurious on his body.
“CEO Zhong, long time no see.” Xu Mingzhi stepped forward and shook hands with him.
Pei Huai gave him face and said, “CEO Zhong, nice to meet you.”
CEO Zhong held the golf club and his gaze wandered back and forth between Pei Huai and Xu Mingzhi.
Seeing Pei Huai’s tall build and outstanding looks, a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. “Madam Xu, you’re still as energetic as before. Your boyfriend is quite young. He’s probably one or two decades younger than you, right?”
Pei Huai narrowed his eyes slightly. He understood why Madam Xu wanted to give him a heads up.
Hence, he held back.
“CEO Zhong, you’ve mis…”
However, Xu Mingzhi suddenly stepped forward. “CEO Zhong, you’re still the same as before. Open your eyes and see clearly, this is my son-in-law!” Pei Huai:
CEO Zhong’s eyes widened. “How dare you speak to me like that? Do you still want my land?”
Xu Mingzhi was furious. She completely forgot what she said in the car. “I thought I respected you enough to buy the land from you, but you have the mouth of a pig!”
“I see,” he said to Pei Huai. “Do you think your mother-in-law still wants to talk business?”
Pei Huai looked at him expressionlessly. “Only if she’s talking to a person and not a pig.”
“???” CEO Zhong took a moment to react. It was only when Xu Mingzhi’s hearty laughter rang out that he realized that he had been insulted. He was so angry that his entire body trembled and his face turned green. “Alright, I’ll make it clear today. I’ll sell this land to anyone but you!” As soon as he said this, Xu Mingzhi calmed down.
She walked to Pei Huai’s side and coughed softly. “What’s going on? Didn’t I just tell you to hold it in no matter what he says?”
Pei Huai: ‘
So it’s his fault?
After three seconds of silence, he said, “don’t worry.”
Whether or not he held back wouldn’t affect the final result.
After saying that, he gave Xu Mingzhi a look. “Since CEO Zhong would rather sell this piece of land to other companies at a low price, then let’s not waste time.”
Xu Mingzhi understood and acted like she was about to leave. “Yes. If this doesn’t work out, we’ll just look for another one. With the Xu and Pei
Corporations working together, many will want to sell their land to us.”
CEO Zhong wanted to say something but hesitated. “Sigh, you…”
In fact, he also knew that no one would bid higher than them, so it was best to sell this land to them. However, he just wanted to take the opportunity to taunt CEO Xu who used to be all-powerful in Continent M.
However, Xu Mingzhi did not back down at all.
“Watch your step.” Pei Huai calmly led Xu Mingzhi out. Seeing that they were serious, CEO Zhong became anxious. “Even if we’re not discussing business, don’t be in a hurry to leave. The venue is already booked. It’d be a waste if we don’t play a few rounds!”
Xu Mingzhi slowed down and looked at Pei Huai.
There was a subtle change in the power dynamics.
CEO Zhong’s expression was extremely ugly.
People who came to this club to play golf never really wanted to play golf.
Xu Mingzhi swung the ball high and it traced a beautiful parabola.
Xu Mingzhi and Pei Huai did not mention the matter of buying land, but CEO Zhong could not stay silent.
He remembered what Xu Mingzhi said just now and asked Pei Huai, “I just heard CEO Xu say that she’s working with the Pei Corporation…are you from the Pei Corporation?”
Pei Huai nodded slightly.
CEO Zhong raised his chin, “I have a good relationship with CEO Du, who is in charge of the overseas department of your company. She is very strict. It must be difficult to work under her, right?” Pei Huai’s tone was calm, “she’s alright.”
CEO Zhong: “Oh?”
“Maybe it’s because,” Pei Huai said, “she’s my mother.”
“What?” CEO Zhong felt as if his tongue had been scalded. He quickly turned his head and stared at Pei Huai.
Xu Mingzhi’s son-in-law…was actually the Pei Corporation’s…
Realizing this, CEO Zhong’s attitude was quite different from before.
In the subsequent negotiation process, CEO Zhong was extremely cooperative.
Pei Huai’s negotiation skills were mature and experienced. Xu Mingzhi knew how to pull the strings appropriately, and in the end, she negotiated for this piece of land at a very ideal price.
CEO Zhong sent Xu Mingzhi to the car and smiled enviously. “You have a good son-in-law. I remember that CEO Xu only has one daughter, right? If you know another good man, please introduce him to my daughter.”
Xu Mingzhi smiled and did not say anything, but the way she looked at Pei Huai was different.
This was the first time Xu Mingzhi had publicly acknowledged Pei Huai as her future son-in-law.
After returning to the car, Xu Mingzhi looked at Pei Huai, who was sitting opposite her and checking the details of the contract. “Pei Huai, you have contributed greatly to the success of this negotiation with CEO Zhong. In the future, I will give you more leeway.”
Pei Huai’s action of flipping the pages slowed down. He looked back at Xu Mingzhi. “There’s no need to give me any leeway at work. If possible, can you give me some leeway in another aspect?”
Xu Mingzhi asked, “what is it?”
Pei Hilai smiled gli?htlv “Is it nnqsihlp tn allow Sli Ti tn get married earlier?”
