Chapter 159 A Despicable Man
Liu Ran sat down on the sofa after hearing Su Ya’s words, a chill rushing from the soles of her feet to her head.
After a full five seconds of stunned silence, she finally said to Su Ya, “Sister Su Ya, wait for me. I’ll head to the cosmetics factory right now to meet you. I want to see what that scumbag Wang Hongwei is up to!”
Hanging up the phone, Liu Ran rushed out of her home in a panic. She said to Chen Yang, “Chen Yang, Chen Yang, we need to go to the cosmetics factory. Something has happened.”
Chen Yang put down what he was doing and asked Liu Ran curiously, “What happened?”
Liu Ran’s expression was flustered, her eyebrows etched with worry and fear. Her voice trembled slightly as she said, “Wang Hongwei, that scumbag, might not have produced any cosmetics. This means that for the past two days, he hasn’t done anything at all.”
“Now, there are only twenty hours left, and there’s no way to complete ten thousand orders of cosmetics, no matter what.”
Chen Yang’s brows furrowed upon hearing this.
He pushed his electric scooter, taking Liu Ran at breakneck speed directly to the cosmetics factory.
Chen Yang and Liu Ran entered the cosmetics factory and found it in a state of leisurely idleness. Several workshops were not in production at all, and the warehouse was completely empty. There were only a dozen boxes of cosmetics scattered on the shelves in the warehouse.
Chen Yang and Liu Ran immediately headed towards Wang Hongwei’s office.
At this moment, in Wang Hongwei’s office.
Wang Hongwei looked at Su Ya sitting on the sofa opposite him, his chubby face breaking into a lewd smile.
Su Ya’s face was ashen. She had already forced herself to enter Wang Hongwei’s office.
Su Ya said to Wang Hongwei, “Factory Manager Wang, what exactly do you want? We agreed before that ten thousand orders must be completed. What have you been doing these past two days?”
Wang Hongwei feigned courtesy, pouring Su Ya a cup of tea. He then chuckled and sat down beside Su Ya.
Wang Hongwei said, “Ms. Su, please don’t be angry. Listen to me. These ten thousand orders, it’s not difficult to complete them, but there must be a prerequisite! Look, Liu Ran and you can earn over a million just by talking on the phone, while we, everyone in our factory, young and old, working overtime, earn only as much as you do. This is a bit unfair!”
“So I think we should form a more stable alliance.”
Su Ya’s tightly furrowed brows turned to Wang Hongwei as she said, “Factory Manager Wang, if you were dissatisfied with the profit distribution, you could have brought it up earlier. But now time is so tight, and you’re still spouting sarcastic remarks. What do you mean?”
Wang Hongwei chuckled and moved closer to Su Ya, clearing his throat as he said, “Alright, Ms. Su, I’ll be direct then. You see, I’m over forty and don’t have a wife, and you don’t have a boyfriend. Our companies have such a close cooperative relationship. So why don’t the two of us become a couple? This way, I’ll be responsible for production, and you’ll be responsible for sales. Don’t we all become family then? What do you say, Ms. Su?”
Su Ya stood up abruptly upon hearing this. She glared at Wang Hongwei, not expecting him to be so brazenly lustful and to try and blackmail her at this moment.
Su Ya pointed at Wang Hongwei’s forehead and said coldly, “You wish.”
Wang Hongwei crossed his arms and said, “Then I’ll state my position clearly. For these ten thousand orders, either you become my girlfriend, or you and Liu Ran accompany me for two days and two nights. You choose one of these two conditions. As long as you agree, I guarantee the ten thousand orders will be completed on time.”
“However, if you cannot accept either of these conditions, then I’m very sorry. There are only a dozen boxes of cosmetics, and our factory certainly cannot complete the order.”
“I heard you’ve already signed an agreement. If you fail to complete it, you’ll not only have to return the three million yuan but also pay the other party an additional fifteen million yuan. Think about it, that’s a difference of eighteen million yuan back and forth.”
“For eighteen million yuan, it seems worth it to make a little sacrifice!”
“If you really look down on me and are unwilling to be my girlfriend, then tell Liu Ran. The two of you accompanying me for two days and two nights is also quite worthwhile!”
“Think about it, two days for eighteen million yuan. How many women would want to trade two days of their bodies for so much money! Let alone two days, they’d be willing for two years!”
Su Ya’s face turned ashen with anger. She grabbed the scalding tea from the coffee table and threw it at Wang Hongwei.
The teacup hit Wang Hongwei’s head, and the scalding liquid splashed onto his face.
Wang Hongwei jumped up, furiously wiping his face, and pointed at Su Ya, gritting his teeth and saying, “Su Ya, don’t you be ungrateful! I’m telling you now, you and Liu Ran must accompany me for two days. I, Wang Hongwei, am not greedy. I only want two days of your time. After two days, if you make money, I’ll continue to be responsible for production. If you don’t agree, then wait to pay the penalty!”
Wang Hongwei stood up and looked at Su Ya with a cold sneer.
At this moment, with a “bang,” Liu Ran also pushed open the office door and walked in.
Liu Ran had already heard Wang Hongwei’s conditions outside the door. Her chest felt like it would explode with anger. In that instant, Liu Ran realized how foolish she had been. She hadn’t expected people’s hearts to be so wicked and human nature to be so filthy.
Is trust really so difficult in this world?
For this order, she and Su Ya had accompanied five lecherous men, faking compliance, flattering them, enduring the urge to vomit, and drinking a stomach full of alcohol, causing a headache all night.
Liu Ran had thought everything was settled and that things would proceed as planned.
But she never expected that with so little time left, Wang Hongwei would come up with such a condition. Such a despicable man, no wonder their factory couldn’t survive.
The key was that this order was supposed to be a win-win business, with both sides making over a million yuan. Yet Wang Hongwei, this despicable scoundrel, went back on his word at the last minute!
And he was using this order to demand that she and Su Ya accompany him for two days and two nights.
Liu Ran gritted her teeth and pulled Su Ya closer, so enraged that she felt like she was about to faint.
Wang Hongwei stood smugly by the sofa, his face greasy and lewd. He looked at Liu Ran and said, “I’ll give you one hour to consider carefully. Will you pay eighteen million yuan in damages, or will the two of you spend two nights of pleasure with me?”
“I’m giving you time to consider, but if it exceeds one hour, it will be too late. Because by then, even I can’t guarantee that the ten thousand orders will be completed safely. Hahahaha…”
Wang Hongwei burst into laughter.
Liu Ran suddenly pulled Su Ya and pointed at Wang Hongwei, saying, “Fine, heaven will eventually deal with despicable villains like you.”
Liu Ran grabbed Su Ya and quickly walked out of the office building.
The two women reached the outside of the cosmetics factory.
Liu Ran couldn’t help but squat down, covering her head and weeping. She was filled with regret, sorrow, and self-blame. She had thought life was getting better, that her entrepreneurial journey was on the right track, and she saw hope.
But she never expected that this entrepreneurial endeavor would plunge her life into an abyss once more.
Chen Yang stood behind the two women, let out a sigh, and then took out his phone to send a text message to Qinglong.
