The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife
Chapter 277 - 277 277 Mock Negotiation

277: Chapter 277: Mock Negotiation 277: Chapter 277: Mock Negotiation “This student, although this is a simulation negotiation, the content of the negotiation must be based on real situations.” Professor Blair said very diplomatically, but what he really meant was, stop boasting, it’s probably not only Professor Blair’s thought, perhaps everyone below is thinking the same.

“Don’t worry, Professor Blair.

I know my limits.” Ye Shikai’s expression looked very determined, and not at all feigned.

“Then let’s continue the negotiation.”

“Miss Luo, as an outsider, you probably don’t know the true situation of Tianya Group,” Ye Shikai began steadily, just having secured his confidence in victory.

“Then I’m all ears,” Luo Shiqi said with interest, nodding her head and then gazing at Ye Shikai’s face.

“On the surface, Tianya Group appears to be a corporation with a market value of just over two billion, but you may not know that our group has always had foreign investment,” Ye Shikai continued, his serious manner causing those who had been sneering earlier to start listening intently to what he was saying.

“This foreign investor has very ample funds, fully capable of swallowing up the entire Luo Group in a short time, and guaranteeing that there will be no problems with the capital chain.” As soon as Ye Shikai’s words fell, the audience erupted, completely ignoring the ongoing simulation negotiation above.

“What did this guy say?

Swallow up the entire Luo Family.”

“This guy must be crazy.

I bet on it.”

“The Luo Family’s market value is in the hundreds of billions, and that doesn’t even include many private assets.

Even the entire Yanjing probably doesn’t have any company that can talk like this.”

“This guy is definitely bragging.

If because of this, he angers Luo Shiqi, and her anger falls upon Tianya Group, then Su Qingyu will be in trouble.”

…

Indeed, everyone’s eyes were once again filled with disdain for Ye Shikai.

Professor Blair’s face was also hard to maintain.

He had just reminded Ye Shikai not to exaggerate his strength and to stick to reality, but now Ye Shikai’s words hadn’t moderated, they rather emphasized Tianya Group’s hidden strength even more.

“Ladies and gentlemen present, you must think I, Ye Shikai, am boasting and not sticking to the facts, deliberately exaggerating,” Ye Shikai stood up and addressed the audience, “Among you here, there are many corporate magnates, business tycoons, you wouldn’t dare to say such things, so why can I?”

Ye Shikai then slowly paused, enunciating his words deliberately.

“However, the subject of this simulation negotiation is Miss Luo.

What I’ve said so far hinges on whether she will believe it or not.” Ye Shikai raised his voice, clearly emphasizing this point to everyone.

“So, Miss Luo, do you believe what I just said?” Ye Shikai’s gaze was fixed intently on Luo Shiqi, and at that moment, everyone held their breath, waiting for Luo Shiqi’s response.

Luo Shiqi’s face, which was previously composed, now lacked that composure.

Suddenly, she recalled the time not long ago when Tianya Group was having funding issues, and Ye Shikai came up with a billion to help Su Qingyu indirectly overcome her difficulties, and then, she thought about the day at the club when The Nightmare mentioned that “Netherworld King”…

Luo Shiqi’s expression suddenly became complicated, and she remained silent for a long time, leading everyone to wonder why she hadn’t spoken.

She was supposed to say “I don’t believe” decisively.

“I…

believe,” finally, Luo Shiqi answered, her simple phrase electrifying everyone present.

The incredulous expressions on their faces were even more exaggerated than before when Ye Shikai was boasting.

Luo Shiqi actually acknowledged it.

“Did I hear that wrong?”

“Luo Shiqi actually admitted it.

That’s unexpected.”

“Could it be that Tianya Group really does have such strong support?”

…

The audience was in a frenzy, and Professor Blair took a moment to regain his bearings, motioning for everyone to quiet down.

“Miss Luo, you just said ‘believe’, correct?” Professor Blair repeated.

“Yes, I believe in Tianya Group’s ability to acquire the Luo Family,” Luo Shiqi said, her gaze toward Ye Shikai was gentle, it was more about her belief in Ye Shikai rather than in Tianya Group.

“Alright, in that case, this simulation negotiation has come to an end,” Professor Blair was still somewhat in disbelief, and he glanced at Ye Shikai, who, with his many years of experience, Blair could tell was not an ordinary individual.

The two returned to their seats, and Ye Shikai proactively took Luo Shiqi’s hand.

During the negotiation, when they were opponents, Ye Shikai couldn’t be too gentle with Luo Shiqi, and he wondered if he had scared her.

“I’m sorry, did I scare you just now?” Ye Shikai said apologetically, both Luo Shiqi and Su Qingyu were important to him.

“Not at all.

If it were so easy to be scared at the negotiation table, could I have grown the Luo Family this big?” Luo Shiqi said nonchalantly, “If I weren’t worried about you losing face in front of so many people, I wouldn’t have conceded.”

Ye Shikai thought to himself, many people present were prominent figures of Yanjing’s business community.

If Luo Shiqi had refused to concede today, then the outcome would still be uncertain.

The “foreign investors” Ye Shikai mentioned referred to Netherworld Palace and its many industries, but to the audience, Netherworld Palace was unfamiliar.

Imagine, if Luo Shiqi had insisted on saying she didn’t believe, then with her influence and the audience’s ignorance of Netherworld Palace, everyone would probably still think Ye Shikai was bragging, that the so-called “foreign investor” was made up, and Ye Shikai’s success was precisely because he knew Luo Shiqi would say “believe.”

In the end, Ye Shikai’s victory was deliberately conceded by Luo Shiqi.

Judging by her attitude toward him, even if Ye Shikai wasn’t the Netherworld King and didn’t have Netherworld Palace, she would still have answered “believe.”

Luo Shiqi wouldn’t let the man she loved lose face; this is probably what all women in love think.

So she deliberately lost the negotiation, “devaluing” herself to elevate Ye Shikai’s status in the eyes of those below, and in fact, the number of people who could make Luo Shiqi take a hit at the negotiation table, Ye Shikai might well be the first.

“I heard that Tianya Group is going to cooperate with the Wu Family from Hong Kong, is that right?” Luo Shiqi turned and said lightly.

Although Ye Shikai did not know where Luo Shiqi got her news, he still nodded lightly, not concealing it from her.

Recently, all of Su Qingyu’s attention had been on this matter, and Luo Shiqi bringing it up might have some suggestions to offer.
