Chapter 74: Negotiation

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

It was just an ordinary clothing store. It wasn’t a big business for the Xu family, so they sent an unpopular son to manage it.

However, she didn’t expect Xu Lang to have such good business acumen. In just half a year, he had turned this clothing shop into an haute couture shop that the upper-class society adored. He had even opened many branches.

The custom-made gowns in this haute couture shop had to be ordered at least three months in advance. Then, after he measured everyone’s size and completed the design, it would take another three months to get the gown.

It took such a long period of time to make the gown, so such a gown wouldn’t be cheap. Every piece cost at least hundreds of thousands.

After the plagiarism incident, Yuan Shu got someone to investigate. The gown designed by Shi Yi had just been displayed the day before she went to the haute couture store. Previously, it had always been their shop’s treasure.

It was hard not to suspect that they had deliberately set a trap for the Shi family.

Therefore, Chen Mo brought Shi Yi to Dole Square that day not on a whim, but had planned it beforehand.

…..

Xu Lang put himself in the limelight just to meet Yuan Shu today. Yuan Shu began to wonder what this person’s motive was.

Xu Lang was short. Although his suit was tailor-made, he still looked comical in it, like a child wearing an adult’s clothing.

Yuan Shu was wearing a black tweed suit, which made her look mature. Her hair was tied into a bun, making her face look clear-complexioned and beautiful.

Even without any makeup, Yuan Shu was already so beautiful that people couldn’t take their eyes off her. It was inevitable that people would guess the relationship between the two of them when they sat at the same table.

One night, when Shi Yi came home, she brought a small cake. After Yuan Shu tasted it, she was delighted by the sweet and creamy taste. Recently, she had developed a fondness for this creamy cake, so she ordered a slice of tiramisu for herself. This time, she didn’t order coffee.

Xu Lang ordered himself another cup of cappuccino and asked the barista to give him double the amount of sugar. It was obvious that he had a sweet tooth.

When the dishes were all served, Xu Lang said, “I’m meeting with you today because of the copyright infringement.”

Yuan Shu cut off a piece of cake with her fork and placed it in her mouth calmly. She didn’t look up at him as she said, “Mr. Xu, you specifically asked me out, so how do you want to deal with it?”

Xu Lang’s tone sounded negotiating. “The longer the lawsuit, the higher the cost. Moreover, it’s not the best solution for our families. Why don’t I pay for your design? As for how much compensation you want, we can discuss it afterwards.”

Yuan Shu placed the fork on the side of the cake plate and sat up slightly as she said, “It seems that you want to settle this privately.”

She took a tissue from her handbag and carefully wiped every finger before continuing, “Mr. Xu, you didn’t cause such a huge commotion just to end things so hastily, right?”

Xu Lang raised his eyebrows slightly. He had long heard that the young madam of the Shi family had completely changed after marrying into the Shi family and was like a completely different person. Although he had expected this, he was still shocked to see Yuan Shu today.

This woman was a little too shrewd and sensitive.

Xu Lang continued, “Madam Shi, you’re quite smart. Indeed, I only created such a ruckus so that I could meet you.”

Xu Lang narrowed his eyes and said with a helpless look, “I’m just a small businessman. I’ve asked you out many times but was rejected, so I had no choice but to use this method. Please forgive me.”

Yuan Shu keenly sensed his change and became wary of this person.

He said that he had asked her out many times, but this was clearly the first time he had sent an invitation.

“Mr. Xu, if you have something to say, just say it. There’s no need to beat around the bush.”

Xu Lang relaxed as he leaned back in his chair. “Miss Yuan, you should be familiar with Yushu Buyi, right?”

Yuan Shu felt that this name was very familiar. After she thought about it carefully, she suddenly remembered.

Yushu Buyi was founded by Yuan Shu’s mother. After her mother and father got married, the two of them started to run this company together..
