240: Chapter 99 And Lisa just sighed, sighing that she never needed comfort or companionship.

Owners who don’t want to grow and strengthen their company are ultimately in the minority, and not everyone can see the cost of the choices they make like Yu Donglai does.

Even though Cheng Daqi’s schemes were quite obvious, Temir ultimately still stepped right into the trap he had set.

From the choices made, the most touching love in the world is just like this.

I could see everything clearly, yet I was still willing to give him another chance.

But Temir’s choice this time had nothing to do with love; it was all about interest.

“Chan, you want to use my money to start a company again, which is fine, but do you understand the part about having to deliver results if you take my money?”

Even a sheep with lots of wool feels it when sheared too often, let alone that Temir is not a foolish lamb.

She is a beautiful she-wolf lurking among humans.

The blond probably understood the situation; she realized that Cheng Daqi had put on an exceptionally brilliant play today.

The key was that as an important supporting role in this grand drama, she seemed to have helped Cheng Daqi play the role of an assistant.

And what left her speechless was that she was doing a friendly cameo—the kind of selfless performance where you burn your own friendship.

Under the unblinking watch of two beauties, Cheng Daqi appeared quite composed.

The situation now was simple; he had offered a chestnut-out-of-the-fire scheme, and Temir wanted to take a gamble.

“Mi’er, I’m just making a suggestion.

If you don’t think it’s good enough, you can completely act as if you hadn’t heard it,”

Cheng Daqi said casually as he waved his hand.

Now, he looked exactly like a heartless scumbag.

After he had seduced her and gotten her all excited, he’d say, ‘look at you, I won’t go against a woman’s will.’

Is that really not wanting to go against a woman’s will?

If you really didn’t want to, then what was the point of all that elaborate foreplay?

The black-haired wealthy woman was so annoyed she gritted her teeth, giving Cheng Daqi a fierce glare.

“Chan, you’ve given me a tough problem, a very big problem.”

This time, the black-haired wealthy woman wouldn’t ease up and allow herself to be easily manipulated by Cheng Daqi, but she was indeed moved by his suggestion.

This man was truly amazing; in terms of pulling off things from nothing, Cheng Daqi was the most impressive person she had come across in her decades of life.

The company had no performance to speak of, but money from investors had been fiercely harvested.

When other families come out to swindle, at least they bring a PPT.

Good lord, CEO Cheng could just use his mouth – with just a patter of his lips, he really could enchant her mind.

Playing with fire sounded dangerous, but Temir saw the huge potential in the model Cheng Daqi talked about.

The model where companies provide the stage and internet celebrities put on the show, leaving the audience bewildered.

To realize this approach and technique, there are many prerequisite conditions, such as short videos being popular and Cheng Daqi’s company being successful.

But plainly speaking, its real key point is only one: the legal department’s special nature must withstand trial by fire, thus controlling the mouths of its internet celebrities.

This, fortunately, was something Temir could achieve.

Moreover, the angle that Cheng Daqi was looking at was also closely related to OC Perfume’s channel construction, fully considering how to maximize OC’s benefits in the current and future stages.

“You can take your time to think.

Although there’s a certain possibility this issue could become a major crisis affecting the OC brand image, right now, it’s just starting to emerge.

I must say, Lisa is incredibly astute to have noticed this dangerous trend so quickly, which is excellent.”

Cheng Daqi had already cast his hook, and after completing his predetermined ‘tactical move’, he didn’t linger on even a half-word more.

To talk more was to no avail; it ultimately depended on Temir’s inner thoughts.

Praised by the main actor, director, and screenwriter all in one, the complimentary cameo actress Lisa could only manage a reluctant smile.

She felt conflicted.

She seemed to have been used today, but it seemed like Cheng Daqi’s goal in using her was to make money.

No, it seemed like it was to help solve a problem for OC.

Ultimately, it was the flashy movement and pulls by CEO Cheng that broke Lisa’s back.

Especially his last clean break, leaving the decision entirely to Temir, highlighted his brilliance even more.

If the black-haired wealthy woman didn’t give him an opportunity within the dialogue, he would simply take a step back, step away completely.

This retreat was where Cheng Daqi’s true cleverness lay.

Lisa was still reacting when Temir had already tasted the significance.

Driving my car, wearing my clothes, spending my money, acting like the boss in my company, and making my favorite employee your secretary.

Chan, you can do—or dare to do—these things not because you’re too arrogant, but because you’re truly smart.

“Of course, Lisa is my best subordinate, who never lets me down.

However, Chan, many in my family are senior members of the Republican Party, yet you have me working with the Democratic Party.

Have you considered all that this entails?”

Cheng Daqi took a step back, so it was Temir’s turn to initiate.

Her question seemed to ask whether Cheng Daqi had considered everything thoroughly, but in reality, it was a kind of indirect probing.

Even though she knew full well how clever Cheng Daqi was, Temir still needed to confirm that this man was clear-headed about this matter to avoid any surprises.

“Ha, Mi’er, OC isn’t just yours, my company isn’t OC’s, and it’s certainly not yours.

We’re not one of those big companies that need to pick sides; we’re just the smallest fish in this game.

Business is business, stance is stance; blind worries will only hold you back.”

In Cheng Daqi’s view, Temir’s concerns were completely insignificant.

Those who sit on the fence would be the first to be dealt with, but only in extraordinary times.

The current America was far from reaching the moment of great upheaval.

As another cigarette was lit, the hazy smoke slightly obscured Temir’s view of Cheng Daqi as she asked softly,

“How much money do you want this time?”

Cheng Daqi had just opened his mouth to quote a figure, but something felt off about the situation.

It seemed as if he were a server, and the wealthy woman was placing an order.

This wasn’t right.

Clearly, I am helping you, but you’re acting as if you’re bestowing charity upon me, Temir, your attitude is wrong.

“Mi’er, it’s not that I want your money, the OC hurdle is tough to clear, but once it’s cleared, it’s like taking a shortcut to overtake the others.

What I mean is, how much are you willing to bet for the opportunity to take this shortcut?”

Cheng Daqi kept on pushing, but his push felt no different from hanging Temir up and whipping her.

Lisa genuinely believed Cheng Daqi wanted to help OC—that was her initial thought, only slightly doubted recently, which Cheng Daqi’s concessions and persistence had now dispelled.

The dark-haired wealthy woman thought more deeply, so she responded with a wry smile,

“Chan, how much do you want me to put down, just say it.

For the chance to take a shortcut, I’m even willing to work with the Demon.

Why are you still beating around the bush?”

She felt humiliated; Cheng Daqi ate her food, used her resources, played her, and despite her resistance, arguments, and fuss, ultimately, Cheng Daqi still persuaded her.

By now, this dark-haired woman had lost her will to resist.

I’m numb, I lay down; just get it over with, brother.

We both know what kind of people we are; both big bad wolves, so let’s not pretend to be pure.

“The company is just getting started, so the initial price can’t be high—still one million.

You definitely won’t be disappointed,” he said.

If any cab driver heard Cheng Daqi’s words, those poor drivers would surely kneel before him, seeking wisdom from the master.

Who sets their starting price at one million!

“I will be watching you, Chan,” she said.

One million wasn’t much, and the dark-haired wealthy woman tried to apply some extra pressure on Cheng Daqi, pointing to her eyes.

“Of course, the first department to be established in the new company will be Legal Affairs.

You can place people in there, and my current driver is also your man.”

When lice abound, one doesn’t itch; Cheng Daqi and Temir were already inextricably linked, and he had no intention of betraying the dark-haired wealthy woman, so he confidently allowed her to feel uneasy.

“Should the company be registered using the previous model?

Do you want me to handle the paperwork?” asked the dark-haired wealthy woman,

Temir, with her wealth of experience in slaving away for Cheng Daqi, was now fully autonomous.

“NO, this time we’ll establish the company with my American identity, better safe than sorry,” replied the holder of Hua Country and Greece citizenship, as well as an American green card.

CEO Cheng, now possessing three legal identities, had ample room to maneuver.

Registering the company under an American identity was a decision made to mitigate risks.

Since it’s just the beginning, these details needn’t be fretted over for now, but they should be concealed when necessary in the future.

“Pleasure doing business with you, Chan!”

Temir said this weakly, once again willingly being thoroughly fleeced by Cheng Daqi.

The one million wasn’t much, but Cheng Daqi’s shearing was too severe, leaving her feeling repeatedly violated.

“Let’s leave it at that for now.

I have another favor to ask.

Could you use OC’s human resources to recruit some staff for my new company?”

For such a trivial request, Cheng Daqi had no psychological burden at all; he and Temir were not only dear friends but also partners with common interests.

The low-level capitalists spend other people’s money for their own purposes.

The high-level capitalists spend other people’s money and use their people, and those others still have to pinch their noses and accept it.

“Lisa, you take care of this.

For anything specific that needs to be coordinated with OC, just follow Chan’s lead.

The cooperation with the Democratic Party isn’t urgent; we’ll wait until the new company set up for the LGBT community and Bai Zuo is ready.

I’m heading back to Missouri first.”

The girl from Missouri had encountered a formidable Demon on the West Coast and needed to return home to heal her battered heart.

For the sake of benefits, today she decided to make a deal with the Demon.

And the person who seduced her into the trade, Cheng Daqi, also brought a tremendous impact on Temir.

Emotionally, commercially, intellectually, psychologically, she had suffered a terrifying total suppression.

She needed to take a breath, to go home and recover.

The dark-haired wealthy woman left as if in a trance, leaving Lisa and Cheng Daqi facing each other in the office.

“She doesn’t look quite right; do you want to follow up and see how she is?”

Cheng Daqi felt that Temir’s state when she left was poor and she needed the company of a friend.

The blonde white girl shook her head, sighing in response,

“She never needs comfort or company; she’ll be okay.

Let’s talk about the recruitment.”
