CHAPTER 181

At least exactly fifteen minutes, employees trooped into the meeting room and took their respective seats around the table as they waited for their boss. Just then, the door opened and he entered with Wang Tingxiao following behind. They all stood up and bowed lightly as he walked up to his seat. Li Fengjin took his seat and gestured them to do the same. After that, the presentation started.

This time Li Fengjin did not keep mute but fired the presenter and the others with loads of questions. At the end, the meeting went well and the deal was good enough as Li Fengjin nodded his head in satisfaction.

"You all did great. I am impressed by the changes you have made," he said.

"Thank you sir," they all chorused at once.

"Keep up the good work. Meeting adjourned," Li Fengjin said as he stood up and walked out if the meeting room, leaving them on their feet with their heads bowed.

As soon as Li Fengjin and Wang Tingxiao stepped out of the meeting room, Li Fengjin gave his order.

"Wang Tingxiao let us put on a show."

"What would you like me to do boss?" Wang Tingxiao asked.

"Put a call across the Chairman of Jiang's Corporation. Tell him that we are interested in doing business with his company," Li Fengjin said and entered his office.

"Yes boss." Wang Tingxiao nodded and followed Li Fengjin into his office. On getting inside, Wang Tingxiao immediately called the chairman as he took his seat in front of Li Fengjin on the black sofa.

"Hello. This is Assistant Charlie speaking

How may I help you?" Charlie said.

"Good afternoon Assistant Charlie. I am Wang Tingxiao the personal assistant of the CEO of Emperor's Enterprise. May I speak with Mr Jiang? It is very important," Wang Tingxiao said politely and constant professionalism.

"Please hold on," was all Assistant Charlie said as he informed old man Jiang about the person on the line.

"Sir, the assistant of the CEO of Emperor's Enterprise, Assistant Wang Tingxiao wants to speak with you. He said it is important."

Old man Jiang who was resting on a mat on the beach while basking in the sun stretched his right hand towards Charlie, indicating that he should pass him the phone.

"Hello. Mr Jiang on the line. What do you want?," he said.

"Good afternoon sir. I will be very brief and straightforward with what I have called for."

"Carry on."

"Emperor's Enterprise is willing and interested in doing business with your company, Jiang's Corporation. We would like to know if you are also as willing and interested as we are to do business with us," Wang Tingxiao stated without further delay.

Old man Jiang was quite surprised at what he heard. Indeed, this assistant was very straightforward. But the fact that Emperor's Enterprise is interested in doing business with Jiang's Corporation is... HUGE.

Will he refuse such an offer? Of course he will not? Doing business with Emperor's Enterprise will be like a door opener to various business opportunities for Jiang's Corporation. He would wholeheartedly accept the offer.

"Hmm. Jiang's Corporation is indeed lucky to have such a huge company like Emperor's Enterprise to have interest in us. I accept the offer, Assistant Wang Tingxiao," Old man Jiang agreed.

"That is great then. We would like to immediately start partnership and meeting so that we can discuss the business proposal we have for you. When can we meet, Mr Jiang?" Wang Tingxiao said.

Li Fengjin just smiled at his assistant's quick wittedness. He knew when and how to suggest an idea.

"Ah. That will be a problem Mr Assistant," Old man e said as he remembered that he was on a vacation and is no longer the one in charge of the company.

"How so, Mr Jiang?" Wang Tingxiao asked.

"You see, I am currently not in the city as we speak. Also, the person you are supposed to discuss the proposal can no longer be me but the CEO of the company," old man Jiang explained.

"Oh! But I thought Mr Jiang has been the CEO of Jiang's Corporation," Wang Tingxiao feigned ignorance as of he and his mischievous boss were not aware of the new CEO of the company.

"I was but not anymore. I am the Chairman of Jiang's Corporation. The current CEO of the company is my beloved granddaughter," old man Jiang said and paused.

"She is the right person you should talk to about the business partnership and all."

"Is that so?"

"Yes, it is. My assistant will send you a contact number for you to be able to reach her. I hope that is not a bother for CEO Li Fengjin?"

"No, it is not. I await the contact number then. Do enjoy your trip Mr Jiang," Wang Tingxiao politely replied.

"Hmm. Then it is all settled then. Thank you for choosing Jiang's Corporation. You too, have a good day."

With that all cleared and settled, the call came to an end. Wang Tingxiao looked at his boss and almost at shook his head. Li Fengjin was currently smiling victoriously at the result of the call and proudly at how Wang Tingxiao played his role very well.

"The deal is on boss. We just have to wait for the contact number we could use to get to the new CEO and then we can set up a meeting," Wang Tingxiao said.

"You deserve a bonus to your salary this month Wang Tingxiao," Li Fengjin said with a bright sunny smile adorning his exquisite face.

"Thank you very much for you generosity. I am glad that I could be of help to you boss," Wang Tingxiao said and bowed lightly.

"Hmm. You do not have to be so humble about it Wang Tingxiao."

Just then, Wang Tingxiao's phone beeped indicating that a message has been sent to his phone. Wang Tingxiao unlocked his phone using his fingerprint and read the message. It is the content number they could use to reach the new CEO of Jiang's Corporation.

"Boss the message has arrived. Should I call now?" He asked.

"Of course you should. Go ahead and call that number right now. There is no time for delays," Li Fengjin said.

Li Fengjin did not want to waste a single seconds in being with the woman he has been dying to see for so long. He would be a fool if he waited. Wang Tingxiao nodded and called the number. It rang twice before a melodious beautiful voice rang out from the phone.

"Hello. This is Assistant Xia Xinyi on the line. Who am I speaking with please?"

"Ahem. Good afternoon Assistant Xia. I am Wang Tingxiao, the assistant of the CEO of Emperor's Enterprise," he replied. 

"Yes. How may I help you?" Xia Xinyi asked in a professional tone even though she had an unrestrained smile on her face as she sat on the edge of her chair.

"I had called the chairman of your company and he directed me to the new CEO. Emperor's Enterprise is interested in doing business with Jiang's Corporations," Wang Tingxiao said.

Xia Xinyi jolted out from her seat in surprise. Is she hearing right? The almighty Emperor's Enterprise is interested in doing business with them? This must be a miracle in disguise.

"Hello?! Assistant Xia! Are still on the line? Can you hear me?" Wang Tingxiao asked as he did not hear any reply from her side. Xia Xinyi snapped out of her thoughts and cleared her throat.

"Ah! Yes, I can hear you. I am sorry about that. Uh... What were you saying?"

"I have discussed with the chairman and he said that he is willing to do business with us. But he is on vacation and directed me to the new CEO of your company so that we could schedule a meeting to discuss the proper dtailsbof the business proposal we have," Wang Tingxiao ecokained everything.

"We would be honoured to do business with Emperor's Enterprise. Uh... let me get back to you in a few minutes please. I need to twlp my boss about it," Xia Xinyi said.

"Albright then."

Immediately the call got disconnected, Xia Xinyi bolted out if her head office to inform Bai Renxiang about the good news. She threw caution to the wind as she ran to the CEO's office.

Knock Knock

"Boss! Boss! May I come in. I have important news to tell you," Xia Xinyi shouted in excitement.

Bai Renxiang who was busy with some paper work massaged her temples in frustration. Sgevsighed before telling Xia Xinyi to enter the office and deliver whatever message she gas to deliver and leave her in peace and quietness.

"Boss! Boss! Boss!" 

"Keep it down. Assistant Xia Xinyi. I am trying to work in a quiet environment," Bai Renxiang scolded her assistant.

"Oh boss. If were to tell you why I am overjoyed you would forget about quiet environment ," Xia Xinyi said.

"What is it then?"

"I just received a call from Emperor's Enterprise.. They are interested in doing business with us."
