Chapter 134: 131. Sorry, We Refuse to Cooperate! (First-Order Bonus 2/9)

"Hello everyone, thank you for attending my daughter's Engagement ceremony. I, Tian Yaohui, am deeply grateful! Thank you all!" Tian Yaohui stood on the stage, beaming with a glowing face, as if he were truly this happy because of his daughter's Engagement.

As soon as Tian Yaohui began to speak, the people off-stage quieted down, listening silently to him. After he finished speaking, everyone gave him face by applauding; it had become an instinct.

"Everyone here is a friend, family member, or business partner of mine, Tian Yaohui. I wish you all prosperous businesses, and I also wish for our cooperation to last for a long time!"

After an opening speech that Zhang Ran found quite cliché, Tian Yaohui quickly got to the main point.

The Engagement ceremony was relatively simple, not as grand as a wedding!

Tian Ya and Sun Gaixin both walked out wearing brand-new, expensive clothes, and then, amidst the "envious" and "blessing" gazes of the crowd, they walked to the front of the stage.

Tian Ya felt as if she were about to explode with happiness at this moment; she cast her gaze toward Zhang Siyan, her eyes full of provocation and triumph.

See that? Whatever I, Tian Ya, like, no matter what, will end up in my hands in the end. You, Zhang Siyan, can only watch from the sidelines!

Besides, today she would receive the blessing of Prince Haiman! Does a person like you, Zhang Siyan, have such capability?

Originally, this was the time for the host to step up and preside over the ceremony, but there was a small situation on Tian Yaohui's side. Hao Yuan whispered in his ear: "Prince Haiman's side will likely need to wait two minutes; they encountered a tiny matter, it will be ready immediately."

Tian Yaohui nodded; a slight discrepancy in timing was normal, after all, he couldn't exactly drag this Prince Haiman to rehearse.

"This is my daughter, Tian Ya, and the person beside her is my future son-in-law, Sun Gaixin!" Tian Yaohui began introducing the two to the people in the venue.

"It hasn't been easy for these two newlyweds-to-be to come together after all these years. I hope they can live happily together in the future."

"I would also like to present a gift to my daughter and son-in-law. I will give them a cosmetics company, and our company has already developed a new type of cosmetic with absolutely excellent results."

"Currently, Tian Ya has already begun contact with Kangshilan. I believe it won't be long before their new cosmetics will join hands with Kangshilan to enter the market. I hope everyone will give your support then."

Tian Yaohui could be considered to have officially stood on stage for Tian Ya's company, while also announcing the cooperative relationship with Kangshilan, even though Kangshilan had not agreed yet.

But Tian Yaohui believed that once tonight passed, their cooperation with Kangshilan would naturally fall into place!

However, surprises always come so suddenly. At this very moment, a crisp voice reached his ears.

"President Tian, apologies, let me interrupt for a moment!"

Tian Yaohui turned his head to look and discovered it was actually Zhang Siyan speaking. Of course, he recognized Zhang Siyan now; although he had never truly met her, he had seen her photo many times.

Tian Yaohui quickly frowned. Why did Zhang Siyan come? Could it be that Zhang Ran brought her?

He quickly looked in Zhang Ran's direction and found that Zhang Ran also looked somewhat surprised.

"This young lady, may I ask what the matter is?" Tian Yaohui suppressed the doubt in his heart and asked with a smile, pretending he didn't know Zhang Siyan now.

"We at Kangshilan have already made a decision today: we will not cooperate with your company." Zhang Siyan's voice was resonant and very loud.

And this voice was like a slap to Tian Yaohui's face—*smack, smack*!

A wave of discussion immediately erupted off-stage. No one expected the face-slapping to come so quickly and so suddenly!

"This young lady, please be careful with your words. Can you represent Kangshilan?" Tian Yaohui quickly regained his composure and said calmly.

"President Tian, I am truly sorry, but this is President Huo's decision." At this moment, Zhao Jingyu stood out, completely proving the authenticity of what Zhang Siyan had just said.

Now, Tian Yaohui's expression could no longer be held together. What was Huo Zhiyuan's meaning?

Did she think that by showing favor to Zhang Ran like this and helping her daughter with a small favor, Zhang Ran would be able to give up his things?

This was taking things for granted a bit too much!

Didn't Huo Zhiyuan know what kind of personality Zhang Ran had?

Indeed, Zhang Ran had been very good and generous to these people before. It could be said that at that time, they were sincerely grateful to Zhang Ran.

But Tian Yaohui knew even better that Zhang Ran actually always had a principle in his heart: that which he gives you, you can take; that which he does not give you, don't even think about taking a single cent!

Did Huo Zhiyuan really think Zhang Ran would give up because of such a small favor?

Tian Yaohui had never thought that Huo Zhiyuan had actually long been prepared to return the things to Zhang Ran.

Because until now, Huo Zhiyuan had not met with Zhang Ran like Meng He had. In Tian Yaohui's view, this was the same as them: she had already shown her attitude to Zhang Ran.

And Tian Ya and Sun Gaixin both had extremely ugly expressions at this moment. Especially Sun Gaixin; he completely did not expect Kangshilan to actually do this, and especially to send Zhang Siyan to say this matter, and at this time of all times.

Tian Ya, meanwhile, was looking at Zhang Siyan with hateful eyes. She had completely lost the mindset of a winner from just a moment ago; Tian Ya now wished she could tear Zhang Siyan apart alive.

No matter how the matter developed, her Engagement ceremony today was destined to be ruined by Zhang Siyan. If not for the upcoming Prince Haiman, she would very likely become a laughingstock for everyone.

Thinking of Prince Haiman, Tian Ya's heart suddenly settled down. As long as Prince Haiman appeared, she could once again become the object of everyone's envy.

"Ahem, the matter of cooperation is not urgent for now. I believe President Huo will reconsider tomorrow." Thinking of these things, Tian Yaohui did not let everyone continue discussing, but spoke directly to interrupt the discussion.

Tian Yaohui was full of confidence when he said this. Later, when Prince Haiman appeared, Huo Zhiyuan would definitely regret doing this.

Moreover, Tian Yaohui thought of many things in this instant. When the time came, he could also take the opportunity to set more conditions. After all, since it was you, Huo Zhiyuan, who made the first move, don't blame him for retaliating.

Just at this moment, Hao Yuan over there nodded at Tian Yaohui, signaling that it was ready.

Tian Yaohui straightened his expression and said loudly: "Next, I invite our most important guest of this event, who is also the witness for my daughter's Engagement ceremony, please welcome Prince Haiman and his wife, Princess Lin Mei!"

As his voice fell, the venue suddenly became so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Many people felt their ears were hallucinating. Prince Haiman? Princess Lin Mei?

But very quickly, everyone saw Prince Haiman, who was already over forty but still looked handsome, walking out while holding the arm of the quiet and elegant Lin Mei. In this instant, the eyes of the entire venue were fixed on the two of them.
