"President Lu, we've finished discussing business. What we're talking about now is off-topic, and it's hard for me to proceed this way,"
Lu Chenyuan put down his phone, immersed in a state of emptiness.
Zhou Jianhua said, "Logically speaking, given our relationship, I could totally offer Peide Real Estate the lowest price on building materials just to honor you, even if it means taking a loss."
"I'm not aware of this matter. You don't need to do it for my sake. My wife and her mother aren't really close," Lu Chenyuan provided the answer Zhou Jianhua wanted.
Both overtly and covertly, Zhou Jianhua embellished his words, the central theme being that he was unwilling to offer the lowest price, waiting for Lu Chenyuan to deny the matter.
Peide Real Estate was the company Wang Pei, Li Fen's husband, took over upon returning home. Li Fen was now leveraging his name everywhere to pressure partners on pricing and gather investment.
