Supreme Divine Physician in the City-Chapter 739: Duel between Two Women
Chapter 739: Chapter 739: Duel between Two Women
The signing representative from Eastern Group was none other than Lin Tong.
By now she had become the company’s largest shareholder and was actively working to secure the position of chairman, essentially becoming the top leader within the company! Having her sign the contract with Liu Group was indeed the most suitable choice.
Of course, Lin Tong had another agenda, which was to use this signing opportunity to personally meet this top female CEO who was as renowned as her.
As for the current chairman Lin Dongfang, since he had not yet stepped down, it wasn’t appropriate to completely sideline him. Therefore, he attended the contract signing ceremony as Lin Tong’s deputy. For him, this signing event was somewhat inconceivable.
But indeed, it was inconceivable!
He couldn’t imagine why Liu Group, a behemoth known even in Jianghai Province as a super financial conglomerate, would proactively come to assist Eastern Group! Moreover, to invest comprehensively and collaborate on a deep level was completely beyond normal expectations.
Thus, one of his reasons for being here was to see for himself whether this cooperation between the two was genuine. After all, hearing is false, seeing is believing! Only by seeing with his own eyes would he truly believe it.
Ever since Liu Ying met Ye Xuan by chance in Huayun City, she knew that the relationship between Ye Xuan and Lin Tong was not ordinary. After returning, she began investigating and was shocked to find that the two were already married, much to her surprise!
Therefore, her purpose in coming to Eastern Group this time evidently had an element of challenging the throne! As for whether it was a real or feigned challenge, only she herself knew.
So, when these two women met, they immediately engaged in a verbal battle, full of sparks, instantly entering into an argumentative mode.
"President Lin, what I didn’t expect is that you are already married. Why didn’t you report the good news to your elder sister so I could send my blessings?"
Liu Ying extended her palm as white as jade and clasped hands with Lin Tong, her charming face smiling radiantly.
"President Liu is truly well-informed. Even my marriage is something you managed to find out about?"
Lin Tong’s red lips slightly curled, her tone cool as she replied, "However, I’ve been married for several months now. If I were to announce it to you now, wouldn’t it just lead others to gossip and require President Liu to spend money? I’m not one to take advantage!"
"Hehe, President Lin really knows how to joke."
Liu Ying’s eyes twinkled, maintaining a smile, her tone seamless: "How have you been recently? Married life must be fulfilling, right? I heard you’re about to take the chairman’s position, but is it true?"
"Of course it’s true!"
Lin Tong raised her eyebrows, her face expressing the happiness of a beloved woman: "Since getting married, my life has indeed been very comfortable! Moreover, in the past few days, my husband has helped me resolve a major company issue by buying more than half of the company’s shares for me. Now, I am the major shareholder of the company, everything depends on my say, and I’m about to take over the chairman’s position from my father!"
"My life has been going smoothly, and I’m on the verge of reaching the pinnacle! I feel no pressure or annoyance at all, just a sense of complete relaxation. It’s a feeling that President Liu, who doesn’t have a husband, wouldn’t understand," Lin Tong said with a sly smile.
"Seeing your happy appearance, having a husband is indeed wonderful!"
Liu Ying wasn’t offended but instead covered her mouth and giggled, her face filled with amusement:
"However, President Lin, there’s no need to brag so much. From what I know, Ye Xuan’s wealth is no mere figure. Even if he bought half of the shares of a company worth just a few hundred million, for him, it’s just a trifle. It hardly seems like a grand gift, more like a small meeting present. To see you so pleased, President Lin, seems a bit beneath you!"
Hearing this, Lin Tong’s brows furrowed slightly as she thought to herself that this woman indeed had some skills and was not easy to deal with.
However, she was certainly not afraid and said with a smile, "Ms. Liu, your statement is quite mistaken. The value of a gift isn’t in its preciousness, but in the thought behind it! This is the first time my husband has given me a gift, and it’s worth two to three billion! Shouldn’t I be happy about that?"
"Of course, as I said earlier, the value of a gift isn’t in money. He threw out billions of wealth without hesitation just to help me. Isn’t this sentiment worth my being moved? Anyway, I am very satisfied! But Ms. Liu, being immensely wealthy, naturally wouldn’t care about this small amount of money, only the preciousness of the gift. Haha, Ms. Liu, you wouldn’t be a materialist who only values money, right?"
Lin Tong looked toward Liu Ying with a calm and graceful smile.
Liu Ying bit her teeth in hatred, not expecting to be countered by this woman and put in a disadvantage!
However, she certainly wouldn’t admit that she only valued money and was materialistic; this would mean being completely suppressed by the other party, unable to ever recover.
"Ms. Lin, I am just discussing the matter at hand. What women care about isn’t the preciousness of the gift, but the sentiment the other party puts into it! There’s a saying that small women often receive great happiness! I hope I can have the chance to be a ’small woman’ like you someday."
Liu Ying kept her smile unchanged, emphasizing the words ’small woman’ before shifting the topic,
"By the way, Ms. Lin, where is your husband? This great man that makes you so proud, shouldn’t you call him out to meet?"
"Now is working hours, he certainly has his own matters to attend to; he’s not coming to this signing."
Lin Tong said expressionlessly, her eyes revealing a tinge of wariness.
"Haha, Ms. Lin, you don’t mind calling your husband out, do you? I’d like to see him; it’s been a while, and I miss him!"
Liu Ying smiled seductively, speaking frankly.
"That’s probably not possible. He’s a workaholic; once he’s busy with his own matters, he’s like a man possessed, and no calling will get through to him! I guess, Ms. Liu, calling him here is impossible."
Lin Tong said coolly. This woman came wanting to see her husband from the get-go, truly a siren!
I definitely won’t grant your wish, huh~
Liu Ying, however, looked oddly. Ye Xuan, a workaholic? She hadn’t noticed that.
This guy is simply disorganized, indisciplined, lazy, with no enthusiasm for work! As she spoke these words, did she really think I’d believe that?
Seeing Lin Tong’s wary eyes, Liu Ying smiled coquettishly and mockingly said, "I don’t care though! Ms. Lin, if I can’t see him, I won’t sign the contract with you. You figure it out."
Lin Tong frowned, and Lin Dongfang beside her was very anxious. This was a tendency to destroy their relationship! Securing a partnership with Liu Group was like a pie falling from the sky, they absolutely couldn’t mess this up.
"Lin Tong, what are you waiting for? Quickly call Ye Xuan over! Now is not the time for pride; sign the contract first,"
Lin Dongfang quickly pulled Lin Tong aside and said in a low voice.
"I need no reminders, I know what to do!"
Lin Tong understood this clearly, said so calmly, took a deep breath, and then took out her phone to call Ye Xuan.
