"Oh, you mean him?" Heka Lienuo rested her elbow on the armrest of her chair, lazily looking at Heka Yanyi. "Big brother really has no chemistry with me. Think about it, Tiezhuzi is the chef beside Meng Jingwei. If I can bribe him to work for us, wouldn't he be a pawn? Conversely, the Heka family definitely doesn't trust Tiezhuzi, but seeing that Tiezhuzi is so friendly with me, they will definitely try to use him. This person is definitely a good pawn, it just depends on how we use him."
Her words made Heka Yanyi fall into deep thought.
After pondering for a while, he slightly raised his eyelids and said with a hint of doubt, "Do you really think so?"
"Otherwise?"
Heka Lienuo flicked the crumbs of glutinous rice cake from her fingertips. "Do you think I would fancy a mediocre cook?"
These were insincere words, of course, spoken for Heka Yanyi's ears.
Heka Yanyi, who believed her, had his eyes gleaming with thoughtfulness. After a pause, the lips, which had been pressed into a straight line, curved slightly. "My Lienuo sister is indeed smart. Tell me your plan?"
"This is what I was thinking..."
Heka Lienuo earnestly explained her plan to Heka Yanyi, who listened intently, as if taking it all seriously.
Afterward, Heka Yanyi shared his own ideas with Heka Lienuo, wanting to meticulously plan together.
"Hahaha, as expected of big brother, what a brilliant plan."
After hearing Heka Yanyi's plan, Heka Lienuo gave him a thumbs-up. "Wonderful, truly wonderful. Then it's decided, I'll be going back now."
She waved her hand, with her hands behind her back, and swaggered away from the side hall.
The moment she turned her back to Heka Yanyi, the smile vanished from her beautiful face. Her eyes turned cold, and her entire aura instantly chilled several degrees.
...
Lan Cheng.
Early in the morning, Shi Ran woke up early, made breakfast at home, packed it, and delivered it to Yuan Wei's mother, taking care of her washing.
After finishing, she rushed to the company to work.
After the usual regular meeting, Shi Ran called Huo Xiaohua and invited him to the company.
This time, Huo Xiaohua readily agreed.
Having learned from the previous incident with Du Rui and Li Fan, they dared not make things difficult for Shi Ran anymore.
However, when Shi Ran personally brought Huo Xiaohua to tour the company an hour later, Du Rui and Li Fan were genuinely astonished. They treated her with utmost respect and flattery.
"Mr. Huo, e-sports games are currently very popular among young people and are a sunrise industry. For your company to cooperate with ours, it is definitely a guaranteed profit."
Shi Ran explained the current industry situation while leading Huo Xiaohua through the company.
"Yes, Xiao Yan told me everything. She was very supportive of me cooperating with your company when she found out." Huo Xiaohua's usual relaxed demeanor was gone. He appeared serious and stern when it came to work, commanding respect without showing anger.
He glanced at Du Rui and Li Fan, then said to Shi Ran, "The sponsorship is settled. I have something else to attend to, so I must leave first. As for the contract, I will contact you to sign it at my company."
Afterward, Huo Xiaohua asked Shi Ran, "Will this be too much trouble for you?"
"No, no, no, not at all, Mr. Huo." Shi Ran shook her head repeatedly. "Since you have matters to attend to, please hurry. And thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to visit my company."
"We are friends, no need to be so polite."
Huo Xiaohua friendly patted Shi Ran on the shoulder and then looked at the two people beside her. "Mr. Du, Mr. Li, goodbye."
"Hahaha, thank you, Mr. Huo. We'll see you off."
"Thank you for coming all this way, Mr. Huo."
The two shook hands with Huo Xiaohua, their smiles reaching their ears.
The three of them escorted Huo Xiaohua downstairs and watched him get into his car. As soon as he left, Du Rui and Li Fan immediately surrounded Shi Ran. "Shi Ran, how do you know Mr. Huo so well?"
