Chapter 2713 - 2715: Who Dares to Use My Name!
"Having trouble?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"Indeed, it’s a bit of a problem."
Jiang Meng said sheepishly, "There’s a negotiation tomorrow about a drug’s technology patent.
We need the patent authorization.
But I heard the manager of this company is a bit lecherous."
"Okay, I’ll go with you tomorrow!"
Xiao Chen agreed.
It’s not safe to let his wife go alone to meet such people; it would be too dangerous.
The next day, Xiao Chen personally drove Jiang Meng to the meeting location.
The meeting was at the other company’s premises.
They hadn’t even entered the company yet.
And they ran into someone familiar.
"Jiang Meng? Is that you, Jiang Meng?"
Hearing the voice, Jiang Meng turned around curiously and saw a woman dressed in fashionable luxury.
The woman was quite good-looking, but couldn’t compare to Jiang Meng.
And crucially, Xiao Chen also knew this woman.
Back in Linhai,
Xiao Chen had several chance encounters with Jiang Meng, offering her rides to work.
At that time, this woman was a colleague of Jiang Meng.
Seemed to be named Zhou Li.
Xiao Chen didn’t have a good impression of her.
She liked to bully the weak.
He had frequently been mocked by her when he drove Jiang Meng hurriedly.
Her words were unpleasant.
Because of this, Xiao Chen had once slapped her.
Zhou Li wasn’t alone.
Beside her stood a tall and handsome man.
The man looked at Jiang Meng, practically drooling.
This made Xiao Chen feel helpless.
Having a beautiful wife was troublesome.
Wherever he went, he’d have to guard against others making a move on his wife.
This kind of thing kept happening.
"Jiang Meng, I heard you started a company.
You, former young lady, why endure such hardships?
Find a good man to marry.
Have wealth, have life, how wonderful is that."
Zhou Li said with a smile.
The reason she advised Jiang Meng like this
was because she was that kind of person too.
Her current husband was very wealthy.
She’d been with a few men before, all rich.
So she had the right to flaunt.
She knew Jiang Meng’s family had fallen.
But later, she went abroad and didn’t know what became of Jiang Meng.
Naturally, she didn’t know how much Jiang Meng had now.
"Sorry, I am very happy now!
My man is also very capable!"
Jiang Meng said flatly.
Zhou Li glanced at Xiao Chen and suddenly froze: "No way, no way!
You actually ended up with that fast driver.
My gosh.
You must be out of your mind.
Even if your family declined.
But with your talents and looks, you could find any man.
Ending up with this pauper, you must be crazy."
"Who I am with, is none of your business!"
Jiang Meng got a bit angry and stepped towards the company.
"Huh? What are these two doing at our company?"
Zhou Li was momentarily stunned.
She now worked as the advertising director at this company.
Considered a high-level position.
Her boyfriend was even more powerful.
He was the manager of this company.
Although this was just a subsidiary of Liu Group.
But her boyfriend Aguang was in charge here.
"Haha, I get it, the ones negotiating the patent right today are these two.
Lili, your good friend is impressive.
Any chance for a ’twin phoenixes playing with a dragon’ tonight?"
Aguang gave a sleazy smile.
Zhou Li frowned.
But still agreed with a smile.
Everything she had was given by this man.
If she didn’t please him, she’d have nothing.
...
Inside the company.
Jiang Meng and Xiao Chen met the deputy manager of this company.
This deputy manager was specifically responsible for the patents.
"That’s it, we want the usage rights of this patent for three years.
How much would it cost?"
After a verbal exchange.
They finally got to the point.
Xiao Chen found it rather boring.
Because he hadn’t encountered the so-called lecherous person.
"Jiang Meng, I think you should give up. Our company’s patent rights are expensive.
Can you afford it?
This patent license costs as much as one billion Gemstone Currency per year.
Three years would be three billion.
Are you sure you want to buy it?"
At this point, Zhou Li and Aguang walked in, smiling.
"Three billion!"
Jiang Meng was stunned.
She had investigated.
The patent license to others was only about one million Gemstone Currency a year.
Yet they were asking for a billion from them.
They must be crazy for money.
The deputy manager was also stunned.
But seeing Aguang beside Zhou Li, he shut his mouth.
"Haha, Jiang Meng, if you’re broke, don’t pretend to be a boss, embarrassing yourself.
Your little company still wants a patent license.
How ridiculous."
Zhou Li felt extremely excited and proud.
In the past, Jiang Meng was the eldest daughter of the Jiang Clan, Zhou Li had to be very respectful to her.
Now she could trample Jiang Meng underfoot.
Her choice was definitely right.
Only by doing this could one become superior.
Everything else was superficial.
Jiang Meng frowned and said: "As far as I know, this patent license to other companies is only one million Gemstone Currency per year.
You want a billion from me.
I may be rich, but I’m not stupid, and I certainly wouldn’t buy it!"
"Haha, being poor is being poor, what’s there to brag about.
Running a small company, trying to act cool.
Your man is even more of a waste.
By the way, is he still driving fast cabs?
When can I take another ride?
Hahaha!"
Zhou Li laughed even more proudly.
"You say I’m messing with you, well I am.
Do you know who my husband is?
My husband is the boss here!
Of course, getting the license for one million Gemstone Currency is not impossible.
The premise is, tonight you must accompany my husband!"
Zhou Li said with a cold smile.
Though this made her disgusted,
she had no choice.
Her man just liked this kind of thing.
"How shameless!"
Xiao Chen slapped Zhou Li: "If you want to be a lowlife, do it yourself.
Don’t drag others into it.
It’s just a patent right.
Wife, don’t worry.
I’ll make sure he’s out of his managerial position by tomorrow!"
"You! You dare hit me!"
Zhou Li was stunned.
In Central Plains City, even if she wasn’t doing well, she had a friend who was very successful.
That friend could even make Jiang Meng unable to survive in Central Plains City.
"So what if I hit you?
Talk nonsense again, and I’ll finish you!"
Other things could be tolerated.
But not this.
How dare they insult his wife.
They were asking for it.
"Hubby, he hit me!"
Zhou Li turned to Aguang, crying.
"Such brutes!
You’re from Chenhe Group, right?
Fine, from today, our Liu Group will fully suppress Chenhe Group.
We’ll make sure you go bankrupt!"
Aguang said coldly.
"Hmph, such audacity, daring to use Liu Group’s name to act recklessly outside, you’re seeking death!"
Suddenly, a voice came from outside.
This voice was too familiar to Aguang.
Liu Yan!
The chairman, boss, and founder of Liu Group!
In short, Liu Group belonged to him.
When he said one, others dared not say two.
But wasn’t this chairman bedridden and supposedly near death?
How could this be!
