The delicate makeup was paired with gorgeous facial features.
She had a pair of long, narrow red phoenix eyes; at the same time, the sides of her eyes were slightly inclined too.
With her tender, pale skin, she still emitted an unconcealable hint of sexiness even though she was wearing a very formal female suit.
As she leisurely walked out of the elevator with an air of calmness, it didn’t seem as though she was here for a negotiation. Instead, she seemed like a Queen who was here to supervise her territory.
Everyone else from the Yu Corporation was stunned with Zheng Yan’s appearance.
All of them had assumed that since Zheng Yan was feeling unwell, she would either be unable to come or that she would appear with a sickly look.
However, none of them had expected that she would have appeared in such a manner.
Arrogant, confident, with an overpowering aura that could not be expressed in words.
It seemed like the Yu Corporation had become the disadvantaged party when it came to collaborating with the Zheng Corporation.
Manager Nian, so sorry I have kept all of you waiting for so long because I was feeling unwell.
Zheng Yan walked forward and took the initiative to extend her hand toward Nian Xiaomu.
Even though her choice of words sounded apologetic, not a single bit of sincerity could be spotted in her eyes.
Furthermore, she did not appear to be at all sick from head to toe.
Anyone with a discerning eye would know that she was merely trying to establish an imposing air by coming down so late.
Her illness was only an excuse.
However, since she was already here and had also explained the reason behind her late arrival, they would appear to be the petty ones if Nian Xiaomu insisted on leaving now.
On the other hand, if they didn’t leave, they would surely become a laughing stock when word got out…
At that moment, the decision to stay or leave seemed to be a difficult one to make.
Noone in the Yu Corporation knew what to do and they all turned to look at Nian Xiaomu.
Nian Xiaomu reached out gracefully and shook her hand.
Vice-President Zheng, you are too polite. You should be resting since you are not feeling well.
Then, she let go of it quickly.
Turning around, she looked at her team and spoke.
Since Vice-President Zheng is not feeling well, we shall head back first. We will surely receive you properly when you recover and come over to the Yu Corporation personally to talk about the collaboration.
Her voice sounded very calm with no anger detected. However, it carried an overpowering hint of an aura that could not be disputed.
The meaning behind her words were very clear,
I am tired after watching a show that you guys had put on, so we will take our leave first. If you want to talk about the collaboration, sure. All of you can come over to the Yu Corporation another day and wait for two hours, we can talk about it after both parties have called it quits!
Manager Nian, this…
The representatives from the Zheng Corporation had just heaved a sigh of relief. However, their hearts were on edge again when they heard Nian Xiaomu’s words.
They turned around and looked at Zheng Yan.
However, Zheng Yan was still smiling and did not take Nian Xiaomu’s words to heart.
She walked forward with a smiley face when she saw that she was about to leave.
It was familiarity at first sight the moment I saw Manager Nian. Since everyone is already here, why not give me the honor to treat everyone to a meal after we have finished discussing work?
…
Nian Xiaomu stared at her with raised eyebrows.
She took in the confidence beneath Zheng Yan’s eyes and she furrowed her eyebrows slightly.
On the negotiation tables there were usually two possibilities if the other party appeared to be very arrogant when they obviously did not fare better in any of their conditions; either they were trying to false bravado, or they had some sort of information that could be used against them.
She did not understand Zheng Yan as a person.
However, she had a feeling that Zheng Yan wasn’t the former; her gaze appeared to be very certain, and it was the kind of confidence that was exuded from within.
Nian Xiaomu’s eyes flickered but she did not make a single movement.
Vice-President Zheng, you are too polite. It’s not that we do not want to refuse you, but our company cares for our employees and they usually do not allow us to work overtime. It’s already after 5 p.m. now and it’s time for my colleagues to knock off from work. I am only a manager and I certainly could not afford to pay them for working overtime if we keep them here.
Nian Xiaomu reasoned it out with her.
After she finished speaking, she glanced at the secretary and gestured to the rest that they could take their leave.
