My Silly, Sweet Wife

Annie, Chen Ziran’s secretary, walked in.

Annie looked at Ye Guichen, then quickly approached Chen Ziran and said nervously, ”Mr. Chen, there’s big trouble. The whole company is talking about it. As soon as Chen Longxiang returned from his business trip, the first thing he did was connect with Dean Wang from Renmin Hospital. If our company’s medical equipment enters Renmin Hospital, he will definitely suppress you. By then, I’m afraid you won’t have a place at the Chen Group.”

Chen Ziran remained silent.

Annie continued, ”Just now, Chen Longxiang’s secretary also came to notify that you have to go to the meeting room in half an hour. He’s invited the chief of the equipment department from Renmin Hospital to discuss cooperation matters. He wants to embarrass you in person.”

”This Chen Longxiang, is he so impatient?” Chen Ziran originally thought Chen Longxiang wouldn’t act so quickly, but now, there was no other way.

”I understand.” Chen Ziran sat weakly in the chair, his brows tightly furrowed, clearly unable to think of a way to deal with the situation.

Once Chen Longxiang secures this cooperation, a majority of the middle and high management at Chen Group will probably side with him.

By then, even if Chen Longxiang doesn’t make things difficult for her, a mere glance from him would prompt others to do so, making it extremely tough for her to navigate the company.

”Honey, let me go with you later,” Ye Guichen suddenly said.

”You?” Chen Ziran was stunned, looking at Ye Guichen, even wondering if he intended to reveal her deceit towards Wang Jinglun and sabotage the negotiation.

Though Chen Ziran had thought of doing so, the Chen Group was still part of the Chen Family. Despite being targeted by Chen Longxiang, who wanted to push her out, she couldn’t bring herself to engage in such underhanded tactics.

”I know what you’re thinking, but if we rely on such means, even if we sabotage this negotiation, do you think others will turn a blind eye? I’ll find it even harder to stay at Chen Group afterward.” Chen Ziran’s eyes glinted coldly, ”Besides, I always believe that those who rely on tricks will never achieve great things.”

Ye Guichen was too lazy to explain, ”Honey, look at what you’re saying, do I look like that kind of person?”

”You do.”

”Uh...” Ye Guichen shrugged, ”Honey, saying that really hurts me.”

”Hmph!” Chen Ziran turned her head, remaining silent.

In the end, Chen Ziran let Ye Guichen accompany her to the meeting room.

Although she didn’t want him to add insult to injury, for some reason, having Ye Guichen by her side gave her a sense of security.

”Mr. Chen, you’ve really made a grand move, securing Renmin Hospital right after returning from a business trip. In the future, as long as our medical equipment enters Renmin Hospital, even if our Chen Group’s profit doesn’t double, a 30% increase is entirely possible.”

”Truly a young hero. If one day the Chen Group could be handed to Mr. Chen, we’d all be at peace.”

”Ah, women really can’t achieve great things. Did you hear? Vice President Chen Ziran of the Chen Group found herself a country bumpkin fiancé. Haha, if this gets out, how will our Chen Group maintain its face?”

”Mr. Chen, you’ve heard about it too, right? If you have time, you should give her some advice.”

The meeting room was bustling with activity.

Most of the Chen Group’s high-level executives were flattering Chen Longxiang.

The cooperation with Renmin Hospital was a big deal for the Chen Group, and Chen Longxiang deliberately called so many people to showcase his capabilities.

Listening to the discussions around him, Chen Longxiang cracked a fake smile and said, ”Everyone here is wise. I’ve also advised Sister Ziran, but what can I do if she doesn’t listen? Hey, it’s been nearly a month, and not only has the business in her charge not grown, it’s declined significantly. If this continues, I’ll have to make a righteous move against her.”

”Mr. Chen, you’re so magnanimous, still speaking for others in such times.”

”It’s our fortune to follow Mr. Chen.”

A group of people again began their flattery.

When Chen Ziran arrived, hearing the unscrupulous discussions, her face flushed, and she silently found a corner to sit in.

Before long, the chief of the equipment department at Renmin Hospital arrived.

Du Congqi, a portly middle-aged man.

His eyes were small, resembling a smiling tiger’s; with a slight smile, they would narrow into slits.

”Mr. Chen, nice to meet you, nice to meet you!” As soon as Du Congqi entered the meeting room, he politely shook hands with Chen Longxiang, ”Our dean has seen the sincerity of your Chen Group. This time, we mainly want to discuss specific cooperation matters with you.”

Seeing Du Congqi being so polite, Chen Longxiang felt proud, inadvertently glancing provocatively at Chen Ziran, then said with a beaming smile, ”Chief Du, you’re too kind. It’s our Chen Group’s honor that Dean Wang decided to cooperate with us.”

”Haha, haha,” Du Congqi laughed heartily.

Following that, Chen Longxiang seriously discussed the contract terms with Du Congqi.

Finally, Du Congqi confirmed that 10% of Renmin Hospital’s medical equipment would be sourced from Chen Group, with the contract being valid for three years.

Although it was only 10%, Renmin Hospital was the largest hospital in Yun City, and the profits would be enough to support a company.

Moreover, this contract was a validation for the Chen Group, making future collaborations with other hospitals smoother and the ensuing profits considerable.

”Alright, since we’ve roughly settled things, let’s sign the contract.” Du Congqi said, sweeping his gaze around the meeting room, initially wanting to bask in the attention, but his eyes suddenly fell on Ye Guichen.

Suddenly, Du Congqi’s smile seemed to freeze on his face.
