Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 304: Chapter 304: Second Confrontation!_1

The next day, in the morning.

In the Zhongjing Wanhe Building, the coffee shop on the tenth floor was still the old spot.

Bai Xiaosheng sat there calmly, sipping his coffee, waiting for Shang Wanwan to appear.

This time, he was dressed very formally, exuding a handsome and authoritative air.

”Mr. Bai, sorry to have kept you waiting,” Shang Wanwan finally arrived.

She still wore her large toad sunglasses, her long hair black as a waterfall, dressed in a sexy and fashionable manner, sitting down across from Bai Xiaosheng.

Her assistant Xiao Mai took a seat at an outer table, adjusting her chair, using its broad back to shield Shang Wanwan and also to prevent people from approaching.

”Miss Shang’s company seems to be dissatisfied with the cooperation we discussed last time,” Bai Xiaosheng observed Shang Wanwan, smiling calmly, ”No matter, we can talk it over again today, until Miss Shang is satisfied.”

Shang Wanwan smiled.

”Actually, I personally agree, but as you know, I’m not really in control... I’m just a so-called star who actually can’t decide anything on her own.”

Shang Wanwan seemed somewhat apologetic as she shrugged, ”My agent is on the way, I can only discuss with you first, she will arrive at the latest the day after tomorrow. We’ve talked over the phone, she’s asking for too high a price, I’m embarrassed to say...”

Bai Xiaosheng watched her, smiling without a word.

”Initiating the third auxiliary system, the Micro Expression Analysis System starting...”

”Facial Action Coding System code initiating, analyzing...”

”Body Language System code initiating, analyzing...”

Beneath Bai Xiaosheng’s smile, Red Lotus had already assessed the results.

”Pupils contracted by seven percent, the angle of the corners of the mouth raised by eight to twelve percent, shoulder trembling changed by fifteen percent... Judgment result: Deception!”

”Oh, is that so?” Bai Xiaosheng, fully aware she was lying, nevertheless appeared very convinced, nodding, ”No worries, we can continue our discussion, I won’t make it difficult for Miss Shang.”

”Good,” Shang Wanwan said with a smile.

Following that, Bai Xiaosheng directly increased the discount to twenty percent, agreeing to all the corresponding conditions except for a few extremely harsh ones!

To be honest, these terms were very generous.

Bai Xiaosheng had also asked Shang Wanwan about the so-called harsh terms her agent demanded.

Shang Wanwan smiled away the question, vaguely bypassing it, seemingly unwilling to mention a bottom line. She had Bai Xiaosheng make an offer, only saying her agent would arrive soon.

Red Lotus, system judgment: Deception!

After Bai Xiaosheng’s new round of terms, Shang Wanwan once again happily agreed to sign the contract.

”I think this time, my agent will agree too, she’ll sign it when she arrives the day after tomorrow. Mr. Bai, you can speak to Mr. Song first, have the contract amended. This time, I don’t see any problems,” Shang Wanwan said with a smile.

She was lying again.

Aside from her pleasant demeanor, this woman hadn’t uttered a single truth when it came to crucial matters!

And yet, she possessed a beauty that made it difficult for a man to doubt her.

This time, Bai Xiaosheng wasn’t in a hurry to leave. Suddenly, he said with a smile to Shang Wanwan, ”I wonder if Mr. Chen has talked to Miss Shang these past two days.”

Caught off guard by the sudden question, Shang Wanwan was momentarily stunned before quickly regaining her composure.

”We did talk, and I know about the agreement between you two. Don’t worry, Wanwan is not one to be evasive. Since Mr. Bai approached me first, I should prioritize working with you,” Shang Wanwan said with a smile.

Her every frown and smile could soothe a man’s heart.

Bai Xiaosheng nodded and smiled.

Truly a professional actress, this acting... Without the Micro Expression Analysis System, I might have actually believed her.

”Our Mr. Chen is generous, he must have made a substantial offer, right?” Bai Xiaosheng spoke leisurely, asking, ”And with Mr. Chen’s impressive background, providing Miss Shang with conditions beyond the cooperation is also possible.”

Bai Xiaosheng casually expressed his suspicions.

Either Mr. Chen offered too high, prompting Shang Wanwan to feel out both sides! However, given Mr. Chen’s nature, once he had Shang Wanwan’s agreement, would he not report to Mr. Song? That’s not like him!

There might be another possibility!

It could be that Chen had already won over Shang Wanwan!

They were banding together to play him!

”I... I’m afraid I can’t say,” Shang Wanwan said with a smile.

Her beautiful eyes inadvertently glanced into Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes.

This young vice president had a profound gaze that shone with an insight that seemed to pierce through everything.

”Not good, he’s testing me!” Shang Wanwan thought with a start.

”Mr. Bai, I really shouldn’t meddle in the affairs between you and Mr. Chen.”

As she spoke, Shang Wanwan put on her oversized toad sunglasses, covering most of her face.

At that moment, Bai Xiaosheng’s Micro Expression Analysis System issued a warning, ”Unable to precisely determine facial expressions, accuracy of judgment results decreased by fifty percent!”

What a formidable woman!

Bai Xiaosheng mused.

She might not be aware of his system’s assistance, but understood that her expressions could reveal information. On high alert, she reacted quickly.

This opponent was no simple character!

”Red Lotus, disable system assistance,” Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself.

While the system assistance was indeed very useful, during this round of negotiations with Shang Wanwan, Bai Xiaosheng realized the wondrous nature of human intuition—sometimes, following one’s gut was crucial!

Honing such instincts was far more important than relying on the system!

Bai Xiaosheng decided to negotiate with Shang Wanwan based on his intuition.

”Miss Wanwan, do you have anything to add to the conditions we discussed just now?” Bai Xiaosheng asked with a smile.

He was giving her a chance to raise her stakes.

Shang Wanwan noticed that the profound and oppressive look in his eyes had quietly vanished, and she couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, smiling, ”Naturally, I would hope for as many conditions as possible, but being too greedy won’t allow the cooperation to proceed. Isn’t that right, Mr. Bai?”

Bai Xiaosheng smiled and nodded his head.

Suddenly he looked intently at Shang Wanwan and said, ”If I were to raise the price by forty percent and agree to all the conditions, could Miss Shang Wanwan sign the contract with me immediately?”

Bai Xiaosheng’s offer was made abruptly with an astonishing leap, even exceeding the bottom line given by Song Changkong.

Raising the price was meant to offset the conditions, but Bai Xiaosheng’s increase and complete acceptance of the terms were simply crazy!

Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t see Shang Wanwan’s expression, but he distinctly felt her flinch.

”Forty percent!” Shang Wanwan exclaimed in disbelief, then cleared her throat and said in a calm, surprised voice, ”Mr. Bai, you’re not joking, are you? If that’s the case, once my agent arrives the day after tomorrow, we can sign the contract!”

Bai Xiaosheng suddenly started laughing, his laughter cheerful.

Shang Wanwan was taken aback.

”Miss Shang, with a gentle and virtuous heart, swiftly sensed that I was joking. Impressive, very impressive!” Bai Xiaosheng stood up and spoke amiably, ”Since your agent will make the decisions, we can discuss specifics in two days. My offer remains at the twenty percent level.”

The jump to forty percent, even going beyond the bottom line that Chen Changqing could offer, Shang Wanwan’s first reaction was shock, not pleasure.

She knew what the bottom line was!

Bai Xiaosheng concluded.

Moreover, even such an offer couldn’t make her sign immediately; she still wanted to wait for her so-called agent.

She had no real intention of signing with me!

Underneath Bai Xiaosheng’s smile, his expression turned slightly cold.

No need to discuss further!
