Chapter 1563: Chapter 1578: Unexpected Complications

This ancestor-level big shot, Rogge definitely wouldn’t offend. In fact, upon learning Lin Mu’s identity, he immediately had the intention to curry favor.

If those second-generation officials and rich kids knew about Lin Mu’s identity, imagine how much hostility and jealousy it would provoke!

The Far East Region’s director will be transferred back to headquarters at the end of the year, and the competition for this position is very fierce. Rogge’s own ability is not the most outstanding among the dozen CEOs in the Far East. If he wants to advance further and secure the director’s position, he has to find another way and take the high-level route.

This foreigner, once determined to brownnose, becomes even more shameless than Huaxia People. Sure enough, Lin Mu quickly couldn’t handle it, hastily changing the subject, "Mr. Rogge, you’re the protagonist of the signing ceremony. It’s not good to run out like this."

"No, no, you misunderstood. Actually, when I came out, the ceremony was already over. The company’s manager in Dongguang Province will discuss the specific cooperation details with Miss Sophie next."

Rogge shrugged, humorously saying, "Now I’m just an idle person."

"Oh crap, this is bad, why didn’t you say earlier! That lady won’t see me when the event ends, she’s definitely going to flip out." Lin Mu slapped his thigh, quickly stood up, "Well, I’m leaving now, you’re going to Wancheng, right? Call me when you get back, I’ll treat you to dinner."

"Jesus Christ, did I hear wrong?"

Rogge clutched his chest, his heart was instantly flooded with ecstasy...

Lin Mu didn’t realize that his casual polite remark had been interpreted by the eager ’upward-moving’ CEO as a kind of receptive hint. He sat on the ninety-ninth floor, just stepped out of the elevator and hadn’t gone far when he saw a bald middle-aged sleazy man there scolding a service division waiter with a frown.

The floor was covered with spilled coffee, and a dozen paper cups were scattered all over the place. It seemed like the little beauty had accidentally bumped into the man upon coming out of the pantry.

Honestly, this wasn’t really a big deal, just some coffee stains on the shoes, which could be easily wiped clean. Yet the man wouldn’t let it go, aggressively pointing at the little beauty’s nose to curse.

"Idiot, how does Yunhai Mansion handle things, actually hiring idiots like you! Look at my shoes, what have you done to them, hmph, these are this year’s new camel models, your annual salary can’t even cover one..."

"I-I’m sorry sir, I’ll clean it up right away."

The little beauty was anxious, her eyes red, quickly bending down to frantically wipe. Yunhai’s waitresses all wore aqua-colored cheongsams uniformly, with a slit not too high, but squatting down without caution could easily expose a flash of skin. The sight of the snow-white thigh and that hint of pink lace at the root seemed to improve the bald man’s mood.

"Alright, what can you wipe with that lousy tissue."

Pretending to squat down, the bald man reached out his salty pig hand and pinched the little beauty’s smooth thigh lightly.

"Ah!" The little beauty gasped in shock, her face instantly turning scarlet red.

"Damn, isn’t this ******?" Lin Mu furrowed his brow, ready to step forward, but his phone suddenly rang with a blaring ringtone. The two not far away quickly stood up, the bald man glanced at Lin Mu, snorted disdainfully, and arrogantly turned into the restroom, while the little beauty, with a shy face, grabbed the tray and hurried away.

"Where are you?" Answering the phone, Sophie’s cold voice came through the receiver, seemingly in a bad mood.

"I’m on the twenty-third floor, almost in the reception room..."

"Don’t go there, just come to my office instead!"

Listening to the busy tone, Lin Mu couldn’t help his expression turning bitter; sometimes he really felt he had a bit of a masochistic tendency. Even when people didn’t show him a good face, he still eagerly approached them, "Damn, who says men are so lowly! Though she rejected me from a thousand miles away, I still keep thinking about her..." Looking at the stern-faced beauty CEO sitting behind the desk, Lin Mu’s heart tangled.

"Bang!" Sophie suddenly slapped the desk, unable to conceal her anger, "This is too much."

"What happened, why are you so mad?" Lin Mu was startled, quickly rolled up his sleeves to show his loyalty, "Which blind bastard pissed off my baby, just tell me, watch me beat him up until he’s scared shitless."

"Who’s your baby, stop disgusting me!" Sophie gave a light white-eyed flirtation.

This gesture made Lin Mu feel relieved, he shuffled closer with a flattering grin, softly advised using a soap opera accent, "What’s got you so upset, making you so angry?"

"The Robert investment has an issue."

"An issue? But hasn’t it been signed already?" Lin Mu frowned, puzzled.

"It’s not that simple."

Sophie sighed, said, "I just recently discovered, Robert’s venture capital is a vertical management model, simply put, after the project is confirmed, the headquarters in Western Europe will allocate funds to the Far East Region, and after a secondary evaluation by the Far East Region, it will be allocated to the Huaxia branch. Layer upon layer of evaluation means the funds will be transferred to our account via Robert’s subsidiary company in Dongguang Province."

"Uh, then what?" Lin Mu listened in a clouded haze; he knew nothing at all about doing business.

"Then the problem arose. The manager of the subsidiary in Dongguang Province actually wants to take a cut of the kickback. Humph, a one-tenth cut, he really could think of that, that’s three million! He surely knows Yunhai can’t afford to delay right now, so he demands a huge sum, seizing the chance to cash in."

Sophie fumed with anger, exhaling in frustration, leaned back in her chair, murmured, "And yet we have no way to refuse. The money’s in his hands; he can delay the funding for any reason. Even if this issue were escalated to the Robert headquarters, we couldn’t do anything without evidence. Sigh, are we really going to eat this bitter melon... Lin Mu, at such a time, you can still smile!"

"How big is this problem, is it worth you being so worried?"

Lin Mu pursed his lips, his smile bright and sunny, "Leave it to me; I’ll settle that idiot in minutes."

Sophie blinked, "You, you’d better not recklessly act..."

In the reception room sat a person, or rather, a scumbag, the Robert Group’s Far East District regional manager Mo Renzhi, staring directly at Song Yanan without hiding the blatant lust in his eyes. These days, those with money are bosses, regardless of Yunhai Qinghai; if you want to raise capital, you have to pass his test first.

As they say, King Yan is easier to deal with than Little Ghost. With him guarding as the Little Ghost, money and beauty are undoubtedly indispensable.

"Mr. Mo, I really apologize, I have to work overtime tonight, I’m afraid I won’t have time to spare."

Song Yanan closed her legs tightly, suppressing the unbearable disgust in her heart, coldly said.
