Chapter 104: I'll take responsibility!

Lin Yuan saw the call get connected, he was terrified, he hurriedly calmed himself, not letting his voice sound odd.

"Miss Sun, you called me, what's up?" Lin Yuan asked, pretending to be calm.

On the other end of the phone, Sun Weiwei's icy voice came: "Last night that kind of thing happened, and you're still asking if I have something?"

Lin Yuan didn't know how to speak, he apologetically said: "Miss Sun, last night's incident was indeed my fault. I apologize again."

At this moment, Lin Yuan's speaking voice was forcibly suppressed, he struggled to keep his voice calm.

Because if he relaxed even slightly, his voice would become panting.

Because he was exercising.

When a person exercises, their voice becomes hurried, which is a normal bodily response.

"What's the use of apologizing? Come to the rooftop now." Sun Weiwei said coldly on the other end.

Lin Yuan froze, this... it's really inconvenient for him right now.

Director Su was still with him...

"Well, Miss Sun, I'm busy with work right now, what do you need? You can just say it over the phone." Lin Yuan replied while holding the phone.

Su Monong tightly embraced Lin Yuan, while... while eavesdropping on Lin Yuan's phone call.

She actually wanted to see what Lin Yuan and Sun Weiwei would talk about next.

On the other end, Sun Weiwei said coldly: "Fine, then I'll say it directly on the phone. Lin Yuan! I've thought it over about last night's incident—you must take responsibility and pay the price."

Lin Yuan startled at the words, "Take responsibility? Miss Sun, do you want me to marry you? Okay..."

Lin Yuan was obviously mistaken.

On the other end, Sun Weiwei coldly snapped: "You marry me? Do you deserve it? Go piss and look at yourself."

Sun Weiwei's former fragility from last night had long vanished; now she had become that icy rich young lady again.

"Um... I really don't deserve it, Miss Sun, then what price do you want me to pay?" Lin Yuan asked while holding the phone.

In the call, Sun Weiwei coldly said: "Lin Yuan, about last night's incident, I want you to always keep it in mind. I want you to feel guilty! Keep helping me with work! I want you to be forever loyal to me! Got it?"

Lin Yuan replied while holding the phone: "I understand, Miss Sun, rest assured I'll always listen to you and handle your affairs. After all, we're in the same boat."

When Lin Yuan said those words, he deceived Sun Weiwei.

But in order to gain her trust, he could only say that.

"Besides, as punishment for your mistake, you must unconditionally hand over another piece of Su Monong's confidential information to me! Give it to me within three days!" Sun Weiwei reminded coldly in the call.

Hearing this, Lin Yuan's face slightly changed.

Sun Weiwei is trying to take the opportunity to demand Su Monong's confidential information.

This woman, today she has regained her icy attitude, reverted to her true self, ruthless and cruel.

Such ruthlessness makes Lin Yuan somewhat unaccustomed.

He still prefers the version from last night, the one who leaned into his arms and cried loudly.

Unfortunately, last night's Sun Weiwei was only that fleeting moment.

Today's Sun Weiwei once again makes Lin Yuan feel disgusted.

"I..." Lin Yuan didn't know how to answer.

This? It wants him to hand over the confidential information that betrays Director Su.

He really can't agree to it.

"What, unwilling? It seems you still refuse to betray Su Monong?" Sun Weiwei said coldly on the other end.

"Um, not..." Lin Yuan shook his head.

At this moment, Su Monong also pinched Lin Yuan hard, signaling him to agree quickly.

Since Su Monong had ordered it like that, Lin Yuan could only reply: "Okay, I agree, within three days I'll give you another piece of Director Su's confidential information."

On the other end, Sun Weiwei gave a cold snort, then she was satisfied.

However, on the other end, Sun Weiwei wondered: "Lin Yuan, why does your voice sound a bit panting?"

Lin Yuan instantly felt flustered, because at this moment he was being intimate with Director Su.

But Lin Yuan dared not speak randomly; he struggled to steady his voice, explaining: "Ah? I'm currently... printing documents in the office, I'm a bit overwhelmed."

On the other end, Sun Weiwei warned: "There's no one else around you, right? Our call hasn't been overheard by anyone?"

Lin Yuan hurriedly said: "Rest assured, I'm alone in the office, no one else around, no one can hear."

On the other end, Sun Weiwei then dispelled her suspicion.

"Alright, I give you three days to get me Su Monong's confidential information. Hurry up." After saying that, Sun Weiwei hung up directly.

In the Chairman's Office, after Lin Yuan put down his phone, he finally relaxed.

Su Monong and Lin Yuan lay on the desk.

Su Monong again took the initiative to push Lin Yuan down, then began to engage deeply...

Just as the two were deeply engaged, the office door was knocked.

"Mom, there's a document here for you to sign? Mom, why is your office door locked?" The voice of the young lady Su Zhiyuan came from outside the door.

Su Monong and Lin Yuan's faces changed.

The two hurriedly got up, Su Monong shoved Lin Yuan under the desk.

Then she hurriedly went to open the office door.

"What document? Let me see." Su Monong looked at the document and helped her daughter sign it.

"Mom, why is your hair a bit messy? You're all sweaty? And you locked the office door? What were you doing?" Daughter Su Zhiyuan asked suspiciously.

"Ah? Mom was just practicing yoga in the office, afraid of being seen, so I deliberately locked the door." Su Monong made up an excuse.

However, Su Zhiyuan didn't suspect either.

After signing the document, Su Zhiyuan left.

Su Monong breathed a sigh of relief, she relocked the office door, and she and Lin Yuan exercised for a long time before finally ending.

Lin Yuan was already drenched in sweat.

Su Monong wasn't much better, her delicate body covered in fragrant sweat.

Su Monong took a stack of confidential documents from her desk and handed them to Lin Yuan.

"Here, this confidential document—make a copy and give it to Sun Weiwei to report back."

Lin Yuan glanced at the document and said doubtfully, "Director Su, this document… is the report for your second-half work plan, right? It's very important—are you sure you want to give it to her?"

"Don't worry, this plan has been scrapped; I've redrawn the work plan. This is perfect to give Sun Weiwei as a decoy to confuse things. Even you, this spy, can report to her." Su Monong said lightly.

Lin Yuan nodded.

In the afternoon, Lin Yuan handed the confidential document to Sun Weiwei, and Sun Weiwei was quite pleased.

……

Over the next two days, the second shareholder Sun Licheng launched a series of covert attacks against Su Monong.

The marketplace is like a battlefield—no exaggeration.

Su Monong's faction was targeted everywhere within the company.

Su Monong's chairmanship still has one year left, and everyone expects she may be ousted in the next term.

Therefore many people secretly betrayed her.

That day, at the senior board meeting of Su Group.

The shareholders were discussing how to negotiate new cooperation.

Recently, due to the causes of domestic and foreign tariff wars, Su Group's procurement price for pharmaceutical raw materials has become very high.

Therefore, Su Group decided to use raw materials from domestic medicinal herb suppliers.

And Zhai Pharmaceutical was included within the shareholders' consideration range.

Zhai Pharmaceutical is a domestic supplier specializing in medicinal raw materials; moreover, their prices are low, costs are low, herb potency is good, and cost-performance ratio is high.

However, Su Group and Zhai Pharmaceutical had negotiated for a long time but failed to reach a cooperation.

Because the chairman of Zhai Pharmaceutical is eccentric, few people can reach a contract with him.

This is a daunting task.

Securing cooperation with Zhai Pharmaceutical would expand Su Group's profit margin.

Yet within the entire group, no one could secure this cooperation.

At that moment, on the board, the second shareholder Sun Licheng suddenly strongly recommended Su Monong.

"I believe our Chairwoman Su definitely has the ability to secure this cooperation; Director Su is a woman and comes from sales, giving her a natural advantage in negotiations. Let's entrust this cooperation project to Director Su to handle." Sun Licheng suddenly proposed.

Immediately afterward, several other colleagues on the board also raised their hands in succession to show agreement.

Su Monong's beautiful eyes flickered.

The cooperation with Zhai Pharmaceutical is indeed a hot potato.

If the talks fail, she will be left holding the bag.

What's more, the cooperation with Zhai Pharmaceutical is hard to negotiate; the business and strategy departments have been liaising for several months without reaching a deal.

Sun Licheng is essentially trying to make Su Monong take on the task and bear the blame.

Su Monong originally wanted to refuse.

But half of the people on the board have been bribed by Sun Licheng.

Therefore half of them raised their hands in agreement.

This task, Su Monong cannot avoid taking on.

"Director Su, you're a sales elite—this cooperation with Zhai Pharmaceutical is entrusted to you. You must definitely secure this deal; whether Su Group's profit margin can break through in the second half depends entirely on you!" Sun Licheng said solemnly.

He is essentially dumping the entire burden onto Su Monong.

Leaving Su Monong with no way out.

Sun Weiwei sat aside, her beautiful eyes coldly mocking as she stared at Su Monong.

Heh, everything is under her father's control.

After all, Su Monong is merely a frail woman, and she is overly principled, rigid and inflexible.

Such a woman is destined to be unable to oppose her father.

Her father acts without principles, ruthless and cruel—that is the method a person who accomplishes great things should have.

Watching Su Monong have no recourse.

Beside her, Lin Yuan finally couldn't bear it any longer; he stepped forward and said, "Director Su, you're usually busy with work and haven't had a moment to discuss cooperation. Let me handle this matter—I'll help Director Su negotiate the cooperation."

Hearing this, Su Monong looked at him in surprise??

Lin Yuan is essentially stepping forward voluntarily to take the blame for her??

This cooperation is almost impossible to secure.

Lin Yuan took on the task, which is basically impossible to accomplish.

Su Monong signaled with her eyes for him to withdraw quickly.

Su Monong knew that if Lin Yuan accepted the task, he would probably be doomed.

But Lin Yuan did not retreat.

At that moment, Sun Licheng sneered, "Oh? Secretary Lin, you want to help Director Su negotiate cooperation?? Are you sure? I warn you, if this cooperation fails, the company will suffer huge losses! Can you bear this responsibility?"

Lin Yuan nodded and said, "I can bear it! I'll try my best to secure the cooperation!"

Lin Yuan felt helpless; he had to help Director Su shoulder this blame.

Director Su has helped him so much; Lin Yuan ought to understand gratitude.

"Huh?! You can bear it? Then how about this: Secretary Lin, if you can secure this cooperation, you'll be our company's hero! The board will reward you handsomely! But if you blow the cooperation, you'll have to resign in disgrace and get lost! How about it—do you dare to take it on?" Sun Licheng sneered.

At this moment, Sun Weiwei's pretty face also changed; her beautiful eyes quietly looked toward Lin Yuan, hinting that he should quickly refuse.

Sun Weiwei was so angry she was about to explode, Lin Yuan, you idiot! At this moment, what is he standing up for?!

Does he still want to help Su Monong take the blame?

This idiot, moron, bastard! Doesn't he know that if he fails this mission, he'll lose his job?!

Sun Licheng still doesn't know the relationship between Lin Yuan and Sun Weiwei at this moment.

So Sun Licheng is utterly rude to Lin Yuan!

Whenever there is an opportunity to get rid of Su Monong's subordinates, Sun Licheng shows no mercy.

"Alright, I'll take this task! If the cooperation talks fail, I'll resign automatically!" Lin Yuan said solemnly, nodding.

Sun Weiwei was so angry she was speechless, her chest rising and falling slightly.

This bastard, idiot!

His job is about to be lost!
