"Now you two contact the boss of the company and tell her someone wants to meet her," Ye Fan said.
"Okay, sir, we will do this right away."
They thought to themselves, Who dares provoke this great Buddha? Better to provoke the boss than him… or maybe… maybe he'll become the next boss of the company.
(The call connects)
"Ma'am, someone wants to meet you through us. It's an important matter. We can't discuss it over the phone. If you're free, can we meet you now?" one of them asked.
"What's the purpose?" Feng Qingling, the CEO of Zenhua Group, asked coldly.
"Hey, give me the phone," Ye Fan stretched out his hand.
"You are my only purpose," Ye Fan said with a confident smile.
"Oh? Let's see who you really are then. Meet me at my office. I'll be waiting," Feng Qingling responded.
"Okay, take me to your office now," Ye Fan said.
"Yes, sir!" both replied in a flattering tone.
(Ye Fan and the couple start heading toward the company in their cars. After 30 minutes, we see Ye Fan standing in front of a tall, magnificent building. He sees a woman talking to a middle-aged man near the entrance.)
Zhou Liang, the middle-aged man, spoke in a stubborn tone:
"President Feng, I've been working on acquiring your company for a month now. Why don't you just agree to it?"
Feng Qingling crossed her arms and replied coldly, "Zhou Liang, I already said I'm not interested in selling Zenhua Group. And if you keep pestering me like this, I'll report you for harassment."
"Alright, alright, I'm leaving. No need to involve the police!" Zhou Liang said and walked off in a hurry.
"Why don't you want to sell the company?" Ye Fan asked with interest.
"Who are you? And what does it matter to you whether I sell it or not?" Feng Qingling snapped.
"Oh, I was abrupt. I'm Ye Fan. I had those two contact you earlier," he explained.
"So you're the one who called. If there's nothing important, we've met, and now you can leave," she said dismissively.
"I'm here to talk business. I'd like to speak in private," Ye Fan replied calmly.
"...Very well. Let's go to my office," Feng Qingling said.
(They both enter the building and take the elevator up. The atmosphere is quiet, slightly awkward.)
Coughs "You haven't introduced yourself formally," Ye Fan said.
"I don't think it's necessary. Nobody's free enough to meet someone they know nothing about," Feng Qingling responded.
"Fair enough," Ye Fan said with a shrug.
(They enter her luxurious office. As Ye Fan takes a step forward, he suddenly jumps in shock.)
"What the heck!" Ye Fan exclaimed.
"You look like you've seen a ghost," a woman sitting confidently in the boss's chair said with a slight smirk.
"You… so the boss of Zenhua Group has a twin sister?" Ye Fan asked, confused.
"So what if I do?" the woman said nonchalantly.
"Wait… if you're here, then who did I just meet outside?" Ye Fan asked.
"That was my twin sister, Feng Qianyu. I asked her to speak to that annoying man outside. You met her in passing. We usually keep her identity secret."
(Ye Fan thinks to himself: The sister, Feng Qianyu, is charming and alluring, with an approachable warmth. Meanwhile, the boss, Feng Qingling, is cold and commanding, her sharp eyes making people feel a thousand miles away even when she's standing right in front of them.)
"I came to buy your company in passing," Ye Fan said.
Feng Qianyu narrowed her eyes. "So what's your real purpose?"
"Your sister," Ye Fan replied bluntly. "Before, I didn't know you were there. But now… both of you."
