Cui Peng’s face was ashen, as if all the blood had drained from her face. 

In the video, she was lying in Pei Shixiao’s arms, holding on to him with both hands. Luo Xin rushed over in a rage after a few seconds.

No! Why was there a video?

The top management of Ruipu and Lingjia Capital all watched it. And so did Shu Rui.

She wanted to disappear. How could she face anyone here after this?

“You can continue to stay at Lingjia Capital and continue to be responsible for liaising with Ruipu.” Luo Qi turned off the video, “You don’t know what shame is anyway.”

She looked at Yu Bo and said, “Mr. Yu, is your Lingjia Capital’s employees now at this level? You and Mr. Shu can’t even tell the right people to rely on. How can I trust your judgment on Ruipu’s future market?”

Yu Bo’s face flushed red then turned white as she spoke.

But he was still unable to refute.

Luo Qi turned off the projection and took out copies of the contract from the portfolio, “Please pass it around and take a look. Starting next year, Ruipu will abandon the high-end market and focus on the mid-range.”

“Abandon the high-end market? Whose decision was this?” Shu Rui’s eyes suddenly became sharp, “Who did you discuss this with?”

Luo Qi met his gaze and said, “It was my decision. There was no need to discuss it with any of you. I made the decision and you just need to execute it. You don’t need to know so many reasons behind it.”

Shu Rui did not forget that Jiang Shenghe was beside him, but he still refuted it. “This is impossible.”

“This is not your decision to make.” Luo Qi raised her chin slightly, “Look at the contract first and then tell me what you think.”

While they were reading the contract, she looked at Yu Bo, “Yuanwei Medical will give up the mid to low-end market. This was the only opportunity I could get to allow Ruipu to survive and expand.”

She said that, but Yu Bo simply couldn’t believe that Yuanwei Medical would be allowed to abandon the mid to low-end market, just like that.

However, Jiang Shenghe said, “I agree.”

Just two words, but it was more powerful than a bunch of explanations from Luo Qi and a stack of contracts.

Yu Bo now knew why Jiang Shenghe showed up. Luo Qi was just a high-level migrant worker. She was soft-spoken and could not control the situation. They would not easily believe her promises.

However, Jiang Sheng was the boss and what he said was different.

Luo Qi continued what she was saying, “Mr. Yu, this is my sincerity and that of Yuanwei. Is it enough?”

She smiled slightly and said, “Compared to you and Mr. Shu who only indulge some people, allowing them to continue causing trouble in front of me but ultimately failing to accomplish anything, I do think my sincerity is enough.”

Yu Bo had remained passive throughout the meeting. Although he was ridiculed by Luo Qi, he still had a clear heart and enough reason.

Lingjia hasn’t let go of Ruipu shares because he was betting that Yuanwei would not give up on Ruipu and would make moves to make Ruipu bigger. Even if in the end it turned out to not be too successful, at the very least, when Yuanwei Medical eats meat, then Ruipu would still have broth to drink.

Unexpectedly, Luo Qi would have such great ability and courage to convince Yuanwei Group to agree for Yuanwei Medical to give up the mid-to-low-end market.

Yu Bo didn’t talk nonsense anymore, “As you wish, I will arrange for someone else to liaise with you.”

Before Yu Bo went offline, he did not forget to say ‘goodbye’ to Jiang Shenghe. “Chief Jiang, you are busy, I have other meetings here.”

Jiang Shenghe nodded slightly.

Lingjia Capital withdrew from the meeting.

… …

Cui Peng finally gained strength in her legs. It didn’t matter whether the meeting continued or not. She packed her things and left.

… …

Luo Qi took a few sips of coffee and asked Shu Rui, “Has Mr. Shu finished reading it?”

Shu Rui gripped the contract in his hands, but Lingjia Capital has temporarily switched sides, and he was in the passive position yet again.

“I’ll give you one day to think about it,” Luo Qi said. “Come to me when you’ve thought it through. It doesn’t matter if you can’t figure it out. If you refuse to execute it, I will give all the markets to Dongbo Medical, and Ruipu will have nothing  then.”

Luo Qi only took the laptop and said, “I’ll leave the copies of the contract with you. Go back and study it carefully. The meeting is over.”

The others in the conference room were still a little confused. This was the shortest meeting in history. Even including the time to deal with Cui Peng, it only took less than twenty minutes.

Luo Qi walked towards the door of the conference room, and Jiang Shenghe also stood up.

“Chief Jiang, do you want to come and sit in my office?”

“No.” Jiang Shenghe also had an appointment. He picked up his suit jacket and said, “Report to Li Rui when you have the results.”

“Okay.”

She sent Jiang Shenghe to the elevator. With Xiao Jiang there, it was not convenient for her to be familiar with the boss. “Chief Jiang, please walk slowly.”

Xiao Jiang sighed in his heart a hundred and eight times.

The boss has personally come to help, but this still couldn’t move Sister Luo.

… …

Luo Qi walked to her office carrying her laptop; Cui Peng stopped her on the way.

“You still want me to play your video in the company cafeteria?”

Cui Peng held back her tears, “The video was taken by Luo Yu?”

“What’s the point of asking so many questions? By the way, Pei Shixiao’s mother also has a copy of this video. She probably wanted to use it to deal with you, but you turned around and moved on to Shu Rui, saving her from having to take action.”

The first time that Mrs. Pei asked her secretary to buy the video from Luo Yu, Luo Yu ignored it. She only agreed to give it to them when they asked the second time.

If Luo Yu had given the video to Mrs. Pei the first time, Cui Peng would have been afraid of the existence of the video and probably would not have jumped around so much in front of her.

“Do you know why I kept you here until today? Shu Rui and Yu Bo were denying me my management rights, and I used you to slap them in the face and vent my anger.”

Cui Peng’s heart heaved at hearing this, and her hands trembled.

“Don’t let me see you again.” Luo Qi stepped around her and walked away.

… …

Cui Peng went to Shu Rui’s office and burst into tears, “I’m sorry. Whether you believe it or not, I really like you, otherwise I wouldn’t have sold my house and come to Beijing.”

How could Shu Rui still have the mood to care about her feelings, “You don’t have to apologize to me, these never mattered to me.”

Cui Peng forgot how she got back to the car. She didn’t know how to face her colleagues in Lingjia Capital. She didn’t want to stay in the company anymore.

She didn’t even know how to explain it to her cousin.
