Chapter 207: Chapter 207: It’s Either Him or Me.

"Turns out he used to be a car repair shop owner, but only did it for a few years before quitting."

Chen Lei quipped with a smile.

"Nowadays, anyone can cross into another line of work. Who knows, maybe one day our boss will show up and we’ll find out he was originally a pancake seller?"

Su Wanxin: ...

You’re the pancake seller; you sell pancake rolls.

She asked Chen Lei for the name of that small company and planned to go back and thoroughly investigate.

It wouldn’t be possible for a mere car repair shop owner to come up with so much money to acquire stocks. Moreover, it looked like they might continue to purchase more.

Although Su Wanxin held 60% of the company’s shares and was the biggest shareholder, she didn’t need to worry about being replaced as a director.

But the company was ultimately hers, so now she felt as if her territory was being invaded. Not knowing who the other party was made her very uncomfortable.

Busy all afternoon, it was finally time to leave work in the evening.

Su Wanxin left the company for the hotel Fu Shihan had told her about, and as soon as she got out of the car, she saw Mr. Hodward, the CEO of GE, who had just arrived, along with his accompanying assistant.

The two walked side-by-side toward the private room. As they pushed the door open, Fu Shihan was already inside.

He was sitting at the table, idly fiddling with his phone, his suit jacket hung off to one side, wearing only a white shirt with no tie, top two buttons undone.

The first sight of Su Wanxin made her heart ache sharply.

It was as if she saw that young man from years ago.

The one in a white shirt with sleeves rolled up to his elbows, sitting beside her with his cheek propped on one hand, exuding a lazy air, obnoxiously annoying yet with a face too pretty.

He had forced her to do homework for him, threatening her with, "If you don’t finish this paper in half an hour, you’ll have to kiss me."

...

Su Wanxin frowned and looked down, coughing twice to alleviate the pain in her heart, and casually followed Hodward into the room.

Everyone took their seats, conversing in a pleasant atmosphere. After a while, dinner was served, and they ate and talked.

Hodward brought up the matter of partnership again, waiting for their answer.

Su Wanxin glanced at Fu Shihan and softly said, "I agree to the partnership, but I have a condition."

"Let’s hear it."

"You have to choose between him and me."

Su Wanxin made her stance and attitude clear, unwilling to work with Fu Shihan.

Fu Shihan initially had no intention of getting involved, but hearing her say that, he suddenly became interested.

"What’s wrong with me?" He raised an eyebrow at Su Wanxin, "You despise me that much now?"

"I do despise you."

"..."

The reply was quite straightforward.

Hodward, listening to their exchange, couldn’t help laughing out loud. "Alright, I agree with you, for this time in Hua Country, you will be my only partner."

Running a company specialized in anti-fraud investigation is not an easy task; it comes with risks and can make enemies. Therefore, the initial partners must be very familiar and trustworthy.

Hodward had come to Hua Country this time initially intending to find Su Wanxin. He knew Fu Shihan was too busy and uninterested in such matters.

"Pleasure doing business."

Su Wanxin raised her glass with a light smile, considering the matter settled.

Hodward’s schedule was tight. The formation of the company here was tentatively set for three months later, given the significant and complex preparations that would be required.

Moreover, as a foreigner, Hodward faced many restrictions doing business in Hua Country, so Su Wanxin would act as the main shareholder of the local company, with him as the investor.
