Chapter 529: 468 partake_2

Love cannot privatize Mount Fuji.

But this family did.

Dongying.

Jiang Chen’s thoughts wandered.

He found himself thinking about the already deceased Sagan Nobuo, and the beautiful Meiko who had leapt to her death in front of him.

Not quite right.

To be precise.

It was Akagi Yoshiko.

While Jiang Chen was lost in his wild thoughts, a text message alert sounded.

Liu Yiming had sent the time for the meeting.

Meeting with a force of this level required at least a show of good formality.

After all, Shenzhou was a land of courtesy.

Three in the afternoon.

Jiang Chen opened his laptop punctually.

In such a short amount of time, the Fujihara Family naturally couldn’t send someone to Paris, and Jiang Chen couldn’t possibly rush to Dongying in person, so they were to hold a video conference.

By this time, Jiang Chen had changed into mature casual wear, composed and sedate, with no sign of greenness, his collar embroidered with a lifelike dragon.

Initially, Jiang Chen thought that he would be negotiating with an old man or a shrewd middle-aged person, but when the video call connected, the image on his computer screen took him by surprise.

A woman appeared on the screen.

Even though her face was not visible, her voluptuous figure almost made her seductive temperament overflow through the screen,

Right.

It was one thing for the Fujihara Family to send a woman to negotiate, but

The key thing was that she was wearing a Dongying folk mask.

The mask nearly covered her entire face, revealing only a pair of eyes that seemed to shimmer with the glow of spring and dazzling red lips.

Jiang Chen involuntarily froze for a moment.

"Heh."

The woman chuckled, her thick robe reminiscent of nobility unable to hide her prominent chest. Draped over her, it mixed a sense of both nobility and allure.

"Mr. Jiang Chen, it is a pleasure to meet you."

Mr. Jiang Chen.

Hearing this familiar address, Jiang Chen felt a bit dazed.

He subconsciously thought of the alluring teacher who had left the country in sorrow.

He wondered how she was doing now.

"Miss Fujihara?"

He steadied himself and tentatively called out.

"You may address me as such."

The woman nodded with a smile, her eyes beneath the mask strangely eerie.

Why are all Dongying people so bizarre?

A mask for a negotiation?

Could it be that she was too ugly to show her face?

Jiang Chen sneered inwardly, but he didn’t rudely ask her to remove the mask.

It seemed she guessed what he was thinking and apologized, "Sorry, I recently contracted chickenpox, please don’t mind, Mr. Jiang Chen."

Chickenpox?

Such a flimsy lie.

However, Jiang Chen didn’t care.

Playing mysterious games was their interest and their right—he had no authority to intervene.

"Miss Fujihara can just call me Jiang Chen."

"Why?"

The woman asked, puzzled. Even without seeing her face, her voice was far too seductive. Sitting cross-legged in white socks, her voice and aura alone were enough to cause one’s heart to heat up.

Jiang Chen changed his initial thoughts.

This woman.

Was definitely not ugly.

Possibly quite beautiful.

Of course.

He wasn’t a lascivious person and wasn’t curious about the true face beneath the mask.

"It just doesn’t sound right to me. It reminds me of a friend."

"Is that so?"

The woman laughed, seemingly in no hurry to get to the main point, "Is she Dongying too?"

Jiang Chen nodded.

"I haven’t seen her for a long time, and I probably won’t see her again in this lifetime."

"How could that be? If one truly desires to meet someone, how could they never meet?"

Jiang Chen remained silent.

"Mr. Jiang Chen is quite handsome, isn’t he?"

The woman suddenly complimented.

Jiang Chen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Could it be that the people from Dongying intended to use a beauty trap on him?

But that didn’t make sense.

If they truly wanted to set a beauty trap, why bother with a mask at all?

Moreover, as a powerful entity like the Fujihara Family, it seemed unnecessary to resort to such low-level tactics,

"Miss Fujihara, let’s discuss the real issue at hand."

"The real issue? Isn’t that what we are talking about now?"

"..."

"Giggle."

The woman let out a charming laugh, perhaps the inability to see her face only deepened the allure.

"Alright, let’s talk business."

She adopted a serious and upright posture.

"Mr. Liu should have conveyed our intentions to Mr. Jiang Chen. In business, harmony is precious, and this deadlock benefits neither of us. What do you think, Mr. Jiang Chen?"

Jiang Chen nodded.

"Miss Fujihara, what do you suggest?"

"I think it’s quite simple. The K.E brand currently still holds some value, it would be a pity to just destroy it. Why not join hands with me, Mr. Jiang Chen, and rebuild it together?"

Jiang Chen felt a jolt inside and stared at the woman in the screen whose face he couldn’t see, falling silent for a moment.

"Join hands with you? What about Takagi Gentarou then?"

"Heh."

The woman laughed softly.

"Mr. Jiang Chen, he’s no kin or kith of mine. What happens to him is none of my concern."

Such a heart of a viper.

Jiang Chen had no trouble discerning the hidden meaning in her words.

She obviously wanted to join forces with him to carve up the K.E Group!

Takagi Gentarou must have thought he had found a helpful ally, never would he have imagined it would turn out to be an invitation to a wolf into his house.

"Miss Fujihara and Takagi Gentarou, aren’t you siblings?"

Jiang Chen couldn’t help but remark.

"He has long renounced his Dongying citizenship."

The woman said casually.

Jiang Chen fell silent,

He had thought she reached out to him only wishing for him to back down, he truly hadn’t expected her to harbor such ambitions.

"Jiang Chen, I have a proposal for you, please hear me out."

The woman spoke unhurriedly: "Takagi Gentarou has already mortgaged most of his shares to me. With our cooperation, to change the name and identity of K.E is but a matter of overnight. The most foolish thing about Takagi Gentarou and his father is that they abandoned the largest market in the East. With your influence in the East, Mr. Jiang Chen, getting K.E into that market could offset the damages of this crisis to the greatest extent, and could even take K.E to the next level."

Jiang Chen’s mind raced.

This woman really looked far ahead.

They were still battling in the stock market, and she was already planning the direction after joining forces.

However, he had to admit, the picture she painted was indeed very enticing.

He had indeed been planning to break K.E and take advantage of the situation, but plans can never keep up with changes.

The intervention of Dongying capital made his thought of taking over K.E unrealistic.

Dongying capital had already invested and surely wouldn’t back off easily.

Of course,

he could continue to wear her down, but it was worth considering whether it was worth spending a tremendous amount of time and effort.

As the old saying goes,

Build high walls, stock up on grain, and claim kingship at your leisure.

At this stage,

there was no need to antagonize such a formidable opponent.

"Miss Fujihara, I agree with what you’re saying, but there’s a key issue, if we join forces, who will have the final say?"

That was something she had avoided and deliberately left vague before.

A mountain cannot contain two tigers.

Neither can a company have two decision-makers at the same time.

The woman smiled softly, playfully saying, "Mr. Jiang Chen, ladies first, isn’t that right?"

Jiang Chen was not one to fall for such tactics.

"Miss Fujihara, I’m open to cooperation, but I must have the final say on decisions."

Takagi Gentarou probably never imagined that someone else would be so casually discussing the ownership of his family company.

This was the sadness of being less powerful.

The world is this cruel.

The law of the jungle.

From the scale of a country to a single enterprise, those with lesser strength can only be subject to others’ mercy.

"Mr. Jiang Chen, aren’t you being a little too domineering? K.E is originally a Dongying company."

The woman chided.

Jiang Chen remained unmoved.

"I seem to recall Miss Fujihara just said that Takagi Gentarou has long since renounced his Dongying nationality."

The woman was suddenly left speechless, her eyes revealing a trace of resentment: "Mr. Jiang Chen, you really don’t know how to cherish a lady’s affection."

Jiang Chen stayed silent.

"I can’t agree to this condition. I need to report back to my family."

Jiang Chen nodded, "That’s fine."

Negotiations, after all,

Who would show all their cards at the start?

You have to put on a tough stance first to be in a good position to seek maximum benefit.

Seeing him so hard-hearted, the woman sighed in resignation,

"Mr. Jiang Chen, you really are an unromantic guy."

"Miss Fujihara doesn’t even want to show her true face, how can I be romantic?"

Jiang Chen retorted with a bit of a grumble.

The woman smiled, her curve beautiful.

"I worry that removing the mask will give Mr. Jiang Chen quite the shock."

Before Jiang Chen could respond, she continued, "Then, till we meet next time."

Following that,

The video was cut off.
