Chapter 187: Chapter 187: Honorary Vice President

Dressed in this black hollowed-out leather jacket, Liu Ying exuded seduction from every pore. Ye Xuan found it difficult to concentrate.

This woman, she really came to disrupt social order!

Muttering to himself, Ye Xuan touched his nose and redirected his focus, getting back to business, "Alright, Miss Liu, since we are here to discuss, let’s speak frankly and openly."

Saying this, Ye Xuan took out the contract he had drafted that morning and handed it to Liu Ying.

"Here is our draft of the contract, please have a look."

However, Liu Ying only glanced over it briefly before closing the contract and shook her head, "This won’t do, the partnership must be led by Liu Group, with Eastern Group being responsible for sales and execution. We’ll take eighty percent of the profits!"

Once she shifted into work mode, it was as if Liu Ying had become a completely different person.

Whether in speech or demeanor, she became decisive and brisk, truly a powerful figure in the business world.

Ye Xuan furrowed his brows, feeling somewhat annoyed.

Was this woman’s appetite too big?

He had suggested a fifty-fifty profit share, with each party getting fifty percent of the profits!

The technical aspects were also to be supported by Eastern Group, with Liu only in charge of channels and promotion.

Now she wanted to take eighty percent of the profits, with Liu Group claiming such a large share and leaving only twenty percent for Eastern Group.

Wasn’t this just like dealing with a bandit?

Ye Xuan was negotiating on behalf of his wife, and naturally, he couldn’t botch the job.

Moreover, this partnership was extremely important for Eastern Group. If both parties could get on the right track, they wouldn’t need to be constrained by the Song Family anymore!

Lin Tong would be able to control the company’s power on her own without any suppression from Lin Dongfang.

"Miss Liu, Eastern Group approaches this partnership with Liu Group with great sincerity! We hope you’ll reciprocate and accept the terms of this contract. At most, we can only offer a fifty percent profit share for you!"

Ye Xuan spoke firmly, outright rejecting Liu Ying’s demand.

"Liu Group must take an eighty percent share of the profits, that’s my bottom line. Otherwise, there’s no point in discussing cooperation."

A shrewd gleam flashed in Liu Ying’s eyes, as she coyly smiled and insisted.

"Miss Liu, one should look at the monk’s face as well as at the Buddha’s, we are friends after all, can’t you be a bit flexible?"

Ye Xuan frowned, hoping to play the emotional card.

"Chuckling, I can’t be flexible about this! Our personal relationship simply cannot compare to the benefits for Liu Group, so Mr. Ye, you shouldn’t try to invoke our friendship," Liu Ying said coyly with a smile.

Although she had some rapport with Ye Xuan, she absolutely could not give in when it came to the company’s profits.

"Miss Liu, isn’t there any other way?" Ye Xuan asked.

The Song Family had fully withdrawn their investment, and Eastern Group was surrounded on all sides, possibly even facing attacks from competitors or going bankrupt.

If they agreed to the other party’s terms, Eastern Group may not only fail to make money but could even lose money!

A crafty smile passed across Liu Ying’s face, "However, I’m a businessperson. Unless you can offer something that truly tempts me. For instance, Mr. Ye, you could join Liu Group as our Deputy CEO. With your abilities, I believe you could bring much greater profits to Liu Group! If that were the case, then everything would be no problem. I not only would agree to your terms but also help Eastern Group remove all obstacles and even expand Eastern’s business into other industries. What do you say, Mr. Ye, would you consider it?"

What the heck?

She wanted me to join Liu Group and even offered me the position of Deputy CEO?

Ye Xuan looked stunned. After all this, it turned out that this woman wanted to lure him away from Eastern Group.

What the hell...

Last time she had tried to poach him right in front of Lin Tong and was rejected, and now she’s trying to undermine me again. Does she have a hobby of poaching people?

He had no idea that Liu Ying had just proposed such a high profit share with the intention of persuading him to join the Liu Group.

Although Ye Xuan had verbally promised her he would help the Liu Group in times of crisis last time, it was just a verbal assurance.

If Ye Xuan joined the Liu Group, he could truly establish a relationship with the other party!

This was Liu Ying’s ultimate goal.

"I’m sorry, Miss Liu, I can’t leave the Eastern Group, I appreciate your kind offer."

Ye Xuan obviously wouldn’t leave his own wife; he could only say so diplomatically.

"Then there’s nothing I can do, if you can’t meet my requirements, I can’t satisfy yours either."

A flash of disappointment crossed Liu Ying’s eyes as she helplessly shrugged her fragrant shoulders.

She was very curious about what made Ye Xuan so determined to stay at Eastern Group? Not even the proposition to elevate him to Vice CEO twice could lure him away.

Seeing that Liu Ying still wouldn’t budge, Ye Xuan furrowed his brows with his brain spinning rapidly.

Leaving the Eastern Group was out of the question, Ye Xuan wouldn’t betray his own wife!

However, securing the cooperation with the Liu Group was a must, and the profit share had to be at least fifty percent for both parties.

"What should I do?"

Ye Xuan patted his forehead, feeling a headache brewing.

If only he could split himself in two, one to stay at Eastern Group, the other to go to Liu Group, then all problems would be solved.

Wait? Hang on...

"Joining the Liu Group doesn’t necessarily mean I have to jump ship, can’t I continue to stay at Eastern Group instead?"

Ye Xuan’s eyes lit up as he suddenly thought of a solution.

"Miss Liu, what do you think of this? I am, after all, an employee of the Eastern Group, and can’t do anything to betray the CEO! However, I appreciate your invitation, and for the sake of this collaboration, I could take an honorary position at the Liu Group."

Ye Xuan said with a slight smile, silently praising himself for his cleverness.

What!

An honorary title at the Liu Group?

Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Liu Ying frowned and began to ponder deeply.

To be honest, she wanted Ye Xuan to leave the Eastern Group and join her Liu Group, but he had said he wasn’t willing.

However, her aim was to win over Ye Xuan, and whether he left the Eastern Group or not didn’t actually matter!

Being able to give Ye Xuan an honorary title at Liu City Group still established a relationship with him, so this could work.

Thinking this, Liu Ying’s expression turned joyous, and with a radiant smile, she said, "Alright, I agree, you can join the Liu Group as a Guest Elder, which means we’re hiring you as an external consultant! Your position will still be that of a Vice CEO, and you’ll only need to come and report once a month."

Seeing Liu Ying agree, Ye Xuan also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Miss Liu, since you’ve agreed, then shall we still split the profits fifty-fifty?"

For the smooth signing of the contract, Ye Xuan could only resort to this strategy.

My dear wife, it’s not that I’m deliberately betraying you, I’m doing all this for the company.

If I didn’t agree to her, our profit share would only be twenty percent! Besides, this is just an honorary title; my heart is still with the Eastern Group.

"Ah! I endure humiliation and bear a heavy burden, sacrificing my integrity, but I believe my wife will praise me when she finds out."

Ye Xuan thought to himself.

"Now that you are a member of the Liu Group, of course, I’ll help our own. Let’s split our collaboration profits, fifty percent each."

Liu Ying’s pretty face was filled with a bright smile as she gazed at Ye Xuan with captivating eyes.

Then, she picked up the contract, signed her name, stamped the company’s seal, and the contract officially took effect!
