Chapter 616: Chapter 616: I Choose You, The Career-Oriented Protagonist_1

"Cooperation with the New Energy Heavy Industry Group?" Sun Rui looked somewhat perplexed at the letter of intent in his hand. What kind of company is the New Energy Heavy Industry Group? he wondered.

Utilizing his unique ability to see return rates, he had started from scratch and experienced many things. Now, he had finally established a firm footing in Xingyuan City; all he needed to do next was proceed steadily and surely.

Today, the letter of intent he received showed a return rate of 100% to ???. This means there’s definitely profit to be made, but the upper limit is unclear. We might only make the minimum, or we could potentially gain returns even larger than my current net worth. And what we ultimately gain will depend entirely on me.

As he looked through the letter of intent, he really couldn’t recall what kind of company the New Energy Heavy Industry Group was.

However, judging from the name, it should belong to the energy sector and tangible industries.

Perhaps some company from another city is looking to expand into Xingyuan City, likely by partnering with local firms, he mused.

A partnership is definitely the way to go. This business guarantees a minimum return of one hundred percent. Sun Rui was just puzzled about why they had chosen his company.

Although our company has Potential, it shouldn’t be on the radar of such a large corporation.

Being a company with Potential means there might be a bright future, but we currently lack actual strength. And if Potential isn’t realized, it’s not uncommon to fail midway.

There are stronger companies than ours in Xingyuan City.

"Qing’er, what’s the deal with this letter of intent?" Sun Rui asked.

Yin Qing’er was his childhood sweetheart. After graduation, she joined his company and became his secretary. She led a life where she handled business when there was business, and handled ’people’ when there wasn’t. Aside from these activities, her days often involved contending with rivals like Sun Rui’s first love or various charming widows.

She glanced at it and replied, "I’m not sure. It was just delivered this morning. Is there a problem?"

"No problem. You contact them, set up a time and place, and discuss the partnership." When Sun Rui worked, he was all business. His private life, however, was another matter.

"Understood, I’ll take care of it right away." Yin Qing’er picked up the letter of intent and went to contact the other party. This was her job, after all.

She returned in just five minutes.

"They said they’d arrive at the company in an hour. Isn’t that too quick? Could there be a problem?" Yin Qing’er voiced her instinctual skepticism.

Could they be swindlers? Otherwise, why so proactive? They’re supposedly a large group, not like our medium-sized company.

Logically, we should be visiting them, not the other way around, especially not with such haste.

"It’s possible. You go ahead and make the arrangements. By the way, gather some information on the New Energy Heavy Industry Group." Although Sun Rui had seen the return rate, the other party’s behavior was indeed abnormal.

Therefore, he suspected there might be some internal issues within the New Energy Heavy Industry Group, which could explain why the maximum return rate was a question mark.

If it weren’t for this opportunity from their potential internal problems, I wouldn’t believe I could actually carve out a huge piece of the pie from such a large corporation. He had reached his current position because he understood the importance of seizing opportunities.

"Shouldn’t we be more cautious?" Yin Qing’er asked, surprised that Sun Rui was being so decisive.

"They’re already on their way. Let’s see what they have to say first." Sun Rui naturally couldn’t reveal his ability to see return rates, especially since this was a surefire profitable deal.

"If it’s genuine, we could hit the jackpot."

"And if it’s fake, it’ll be easy to tell."

Since Sun Rui had said so, Yin Qing’er didn’t argue further and went to prepare the conference room.

Sun Rui didn’t stay idle either; he began to prepare information about his own company.

Since this was business and they were a potential client, proper preparation was essential. This included highlighting his company’s advantages; otherwise, why would they choose his company?

He could see the return rate. But if I fail to seize this opportunity and the deal falls through, it wouldn’t be an issue with my ability; it would be my own failing.

This ability has its limits; it shows the return rate, not the success rate.

It’s like robbing a bank. The return rate might be astronomical, but whether the robbery succeeds or leads to jail time isn’t something the return rate can predict.

An hour flew by. Sun Rui wasn’t tense at all; he had made all necessary preparations. As for whether the deal would succeed, he could only say it was up to fate.

A commercial vehicle soon parked at their company’s entrance. Sun Rui glanced at the license plate and recognized it as the car carrying the representatives from the New Energy Heavy Industry Group. They had mentioned their license plate number during their previous phone call.

When the car door opened, the person who stepped out took Sun Rui by surprise. He had expected a seasoned, middle-aged man. Instead, it was a woman whose appearance and figure perfectly matched his aesthetic ideals. His eyes nearly popped out.

"Hello, you must be Mr. Sun," the woman said, striding over with a gait that made his skin tingle, extending her hand.

Sun Rui immediately reined in his gaze and shook her hand. "Hello, I’m Sun Rui. This way, please."

He then led the woman towards the company’s conference room.

Watching this, Yin Qing’er felt a pang of jealousy. She had, of course, noticed the change in Sun Rui’s gaze. However, considering her position and the impending cooperation, she restrained herself; otherwise, she would have already started trying to chat him up.

"Mr. Sun, you’re truly remarkable," the woman said, deliberately leaning closer in the conference room. "Building such an enterprise at your young age, and from scratch—it’s extraordinary."

Her unique Charm, combined with the suggestive atmosphere, made Sun Rui’s scalp tingle.

Fortunately, Yin Qing’er arrived just in time to prevent things from escalating.

The discussion then began, and the earlier flirtatious atmosphere vanished instantly, replaced by a sharp war of words.

Yet, the more it was like this, the more Sun Rui admired her. It’s not hard to find a pretty face, but to find one with capability who also perfectly fits my aesthetic? That’s rare.

The negotiations lasted nearly five hours before they finally hammered out the cooperation agreement.

Sun Rui was ecstatic. He never expected to land such a massive deal. If successful, his company was bound to elevate its standing in Xingyuan City significantly.

"Then, Mr. Sun, here’s to our pleasant cooperation," the Cyborg said, her eyes brimming with seduction.

This sudden shift made Yin Qing’er’s expression darken instantly. How can she have two faces? Her demeanor during the negotiation and her current appearance... it’s like she’s a completely different person!

And indeed, it was true. She wasn’t a single person but a composite personality model specifically designed to target Sun Rui. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"Of course. Allow me to see Director Yang out," Sun Rui said, quickly standing up.

I must be patient, and the timing isn’t right, he thought. Didn’t I see the dark look on my childhood friend’s face? She looks like she’s about to kill me!

It’s a good thing this is about cooperation; otherwise, I’d truly have no peace.

After escorting the Cyborg to the company entrance, she deliberately provoked him a little. "Then, we’ll see each other tomorrow."

"Ah? See you tomorrow?" Sun Rui was a bit puzzled.

"The cooperation has been settled. I’ll be staying in Xingyuan City to liaise with Mr. Sun until it’s concluded," the Cyborg said, then added with a hint of flirtation, "What? Is Mr. Sun unwilling?"

"Willing? Of course, I’m willing!" Sun Rui was naturally delighted.

"So, we’ll see each other tomorrow~" After saying this, the Cyborg got into the car and left.

"Seductress!" Yin Qing’er muttered only after the car was far away, then glared at Sun Rui. "Let me tell you, you are not to meet that vixen alone!"

"Yes, yes, I know," Sun Rui replied with a wry smile. Fortunately, the prospects of this cooperation are so huge that even Yin Qing’er has to swallow her anger.

The main thing is, the other party is extremely generous. They’ve already transferred the initial cooperation deposit—a full one hundred million—and further collaboration will continue.

However, Yin Qing’er’s feminine intuition immediately told her that the other party came with ill intent. If we’re not careful enough, something bad might happen.

As for them plotting to take over Sun Rui’s business, that’s unlikely. After all, his company’s market value isn’t even one hundred million. The fact that they casually fronted one hundred million to open doors suggests our company is just a minor piece to them.

"Go notify everyone to call a meeting. This should be our biggest partnership this year. If it succeeds, the company can go public!" Sun Rui said, his wry smile vanishing, his tone becoming serious. He knew when to focus on life and when to focus on work; he never confused the two.

"I’ll go right away." Yin Qing’er didn’t dwell on the matter and prioritized her work.
