Chapter 288 Who is hiding something?
Miss Tan snorted lightly, "I admit that I did have some ulterior motives, but Miss Yun, who are you to President Cheng? Even if I did something wrong, it's not your place to criticize me."
Her words left Yunzhi speechless.
Come to think of it, I'm really no one to Cheng Shuyan now.
Cheng Shuyan, unwilling to see Yunzhi in a difficult position, stepped aside to block her view. "Miss Tan, there's really no need to continue our cooperation. I don't want a similar situation to happen again. You've already caused me a lot of trouble. Miss Tan, please leave."
Cheng Shuyan coldly told Miss Tan to leave.
He exudes an aura of authority that commands respect without anger, making people instinctively want to avoid his sharp edge.
"You won't cooperate with me? Cheng Shuyan, do you know what you're doing? If your company doesn't cooperate with our company, who will it cooperate with?" Miss Tan's face changed, her originally delicate voice became sharp, her hands clenched into fists, and she leaned forward, her previous weak and pitiful appearance completely gone.
“There’s more to Haishi than just your Tan family’s property management company, isn’t there?” Cheng Shuyan raised her eyelids slightly, her tone completely flat.
He only tolerated her unreasonable behavior again and again because of Old Master Tan's influence. She still can't see that the Tan family's current status is due to their company. Old Master Tan is such a shrewd person, yet his heir is so stupid. It seems that Tan's Group is indeed not a good business partner in the future.
After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Cheng Shuyan decided to take this opportunity to replace the property management companies in all the residential communities under the company's name. In any case, some people had complained that Tan's Property Management had been collecting a lot of property management fees in the past two years under the guise of doing what was best for the residents, but not a single penny of these fees had been used for the residents. Originally, Cheng Shuyan was going to have a good talk with Ms. Tan about this matter today, but now it seems that there is no need to say anything.
There's a saying that goes, "When one cockroach is exposed to sunlight, there are already thousands of cockroaches in the darkness."
"Fine, very well then. I'll have all the managers from Tan's Property Management withdraw from all the residential communities under your company tomorrow. I want to see who else besides our Tan's Property Management staff can clean up this mess for you." Miss Tan threw down these words in a fit of anger and prepared to leave, but as soon as she reached the door, Cheng Shuyan called her back.
Miss Tan, who thought Cheng Shuyan was scared and wanted to use this to her advantage, crossed her arms and turned around smugly, "Now you know how to be scared, huh? If you apologize to me now, I..."
Before she could finish speaking, Cheng Shuyan interrupted her, "Excuse me, the contract between our company and your company should end this month. If you have your company's property management personnel withdraw from the communities under our company's name tomorrow, that would be a breach of contract, and you would have to pay our company 100 million yuan in compensation according to the penalty for breach of contract."
Cheng Shuyan spoke in a businesslike manner.
Miss Tan's smile vanished instantly. One hundred million? Has her father gone mad? To gamble with something this big!
There are only half a month left. Only a fool would break the contract. Paying 100 million in half a month is not stupid. It's only half a month. Cheng Shuyan's company has hundreds of residential communities of all sizes. She just wants to see who can take over such a big project. In half a month, Cheng Shuyan will still be respectfully begging her.
Thinking of this, Miss Tan's lips curled up slightly. She couldn't wait to see the man in front of her bow down to her. She calmed down and raised her hand to smooth her slightly disheveled clothes.
"Half a month is fine. Don't worry, the Tan family will not break the contract. It's just half a month. The Tan family can wait. Just don't regret your decision today, Mr. Cheng."
"Don't worry, I won't regret it."
Cheng Shuyan's six firm words made Miss Tan's face darken. Then she snorted heavily, turned around, picked up her bag, and left without looking back in her high heels.
After watching Ms. Tan leave, the secretary silently closed the door to the president's office.
Only Yunzhi and Cheng Shuyan remained in Cheng Shuyan's office. The two stared at each other, and finally Cheng Shuyan half-squatted down in front of Yunzhi and apologized to her, "Zhizhi, I'm sorry. From now on, I will take my phone with me wherever I go and I will never let anyone have a chance to access my phone. Please don't be angry with me, okay?"
As he spoke, he carefully took Yunzhi's hand and gently squeezed her fingertips.
Yunzhi's heart trembled slightly at his action.
Looking at Cheng Shuyan's pleading face, she recalled his abrupt departure earlier that day and withdrew her hand. "Why didn't you tell me you were discharged today? I only found out you were discharged when I went to find you! If I hadn't gone to find you, I don't know how long I would have been waiting there for you."
Cheng Shuyan was taken aback for a moment and blurted out, "That shouldn't be the case. I told my older brother, right? I asked him to tell you."
What, brother! Yun Yun?
Yunzhi sat up straight, frowning as she looked at Cheng Shuyan. "You told my brother? That's not right. My brother came to the hospital today, but he never told me about your discharge. Besides, he came at noon. Why didn't you come and tell me in person then, instead of having my brother pass on the message?"
Cheng Shuyan instantly felt like she was experiencing snow in June, like Dou E herself.
"Zhizhi, I came here early this morning because it was urgent at the company. I thought about coming to tell you in person, but when I arrived, you were still asleep and I didn't want to disturb your sleep. I was originally going to send you a text message, but my older brother happened to come to see my uncle, so I asked him to pass on a message to me. I don't know why he didn't tell you. Zhizhi, you have to believe me."
Cheng Shuyan held Yunzhi's hands tightly, looking at her anxiously, afraid that Yunzhi wouldn't believe him.
Yunzhi's heart had already tipped in Cheng Shuyan's favor, because he had absolutely no reason to lie. This matter could be verified with just a phone call. Cheng Shuyan would only accuse Yun Yun if he didn't want to enter the Yun family anymore.
Seeing that Yunzhi's expression softened, Cheng Shuyan sighed softly and spoke up for Yunyun with a hint of tea in his voice.
"Zhizhi, maybe your brother is too busy and forgot. If he remembered, he definitely wouldn't have left you unsaid. He wouldn't want to see us arguing either."
Yunzhi gave Cheng Shuyan a strange look, then took out her phone and dialed her older brother's number. After a short while, Yun Yun's gentle voice came from the other end of the line, "Zhizhi, what's wrong?"
