A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

"I know!"

Sun Zhiyuan didn't need her reminder.

One billion.

Their group's annual net profit is only a few hundred million.

If you spend 1 billion yuan, it's equivalent to working for nothing for one or two years.

It's not just about working for nothing.

If the company were to come up with 1 billion yuan in cash all at once, its cash flow would be completely cut off.

Sun Zhiyuan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a cigar in his hand, and his whole demeanor was not quite right.

He had been in business for over a decade and had never lost such a large sum of money.

As a result, because of a young man in his early twenties, the company lost almost two years' worth of profits overnight.

There is even a possibility of cash flow disruption.

"Lin Qian".

Sun Zhiyuan turned around and stared at his secretary.

"This contract...do you have any way to breach it?"

Lin Qian was stunned for a moment.

Of course she knew what President Sun was thinking.

Anyone would try to renege on a 1 billion yuan compensation claim.

But the problem is...

Lin Qian thought for a moment and said, "If we unilaterally breach the contract, the other party has the right to apply for enforcement directly. In that case, we will not only have to pay compensation, but also have to pay a penalty for breach of contract."

"Besides, the other party is the Snowland Group. Do you think Li Xixue will let this opportunity pass?"

Sun Zhiyuan took a breath.

indeed.

Li Xixue is not the kind of person who is soft-hearted.

In business matters, she never shows any mercy; she's a cold and ruthless woman.

Besides, the other person was her boyfriend.

Who knows how Li Xixue will protect him?

"What about the contract terms?"

Sun Zhiyuan persisted: "Is there anywhere we can crawl?"

Lin Qian thought for a moment and shook her head.

"It is clearly stated in the agreement that the evaluation agency shall be jointly appointed by both parties."

Moreover, when she drafted the contract, she thought the land price was unlikely to rise, so to prevent the other party from backing out, she specifically had the betting agreement notarized and filed.

After all, it's impossible to lose.

However, I never expected that I would become the one who wanted to break the contract.

Sun Zhiyuan took a deep breath.

He was careless.

When he signed the contract, he never imagined he would lose.

How could a piece of land that had been stuck in the approval process for three years be turned around in just one month?

At the time, he felt it was no different from getting a hundred million for free.

The results of it?

Sun Zhiyuan closed his eyes.

He spoke up: "Is it possible... to discuss this privately?"

Lin Qian was taken aback: "Discuss it privately?"

"Yes." Sun Zhiyuan's tone was quick: "He's just a specialist, with no connections. He's young, so we'll give him some benefits and get him to withdraw the agreement..."

Correct.

Since there's nothing we can do about Li Xixue, we'll have to break through from Lu Yang's side.

"Lin Qian, prepare the car."

Lin Qian looked up: "Where to?"

"Snowy Region Group".

……

The CEO's office.

Lu Yang sat on the president's chair and finished flipping through the document in his hand.

The plan has been approved.

Land prices are bound to rise!

"So, I won the bet?"

Li Xixue stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, turned around and looked at Lu Yang: "Yes, you won."

She spoke calmly, without any extra emotion.

Although the final plan won't be officially released until tomorrow or the day after, it's practically a done deal.

"this one?"

Lu Yang raised an eyebrow and said, "I helped you earn a billion, and all you say is 'hmm'?"

Li Xixue crossed her arms and looked up at him: "Otherwise what?"

"Shouldn't you at least show some appreciation?"

"for example?"

Looking at her cold demeanor, Lu Yang felt unimpressed: "You said before that if I lost, you would punish me. Now that I've won, shouldn't I be rewarded?"

"I'll promote you."

"I don't need a promotion."

"Then I'll give you a bonus. Just name your price."

"No need."

Lu Yang smiled.

Promotion? My wife is already the company president, what's the point of getting a promotion?

As for the bonus.

Isn't my wife's money mine anyway?

Li Xixue coldly asked, "What reward do you want?"

Lu Yang thought for a moment.

To be honest, what does a profit of one billion yuan mean to him?

This means that Li Xixue's trust in him was not in vain.

This also means...

He can now ask for a reward.

Lu Yang looked at the exquisite face opposite him, the light makeup so exquisite that every stroke was just right, and when those eyes looked at him, they carried a natural sense of distance.

Although it's the same person, compared to the helpless girl who huddled in his arms last night, she is now clearly colder and more domineering.

"I don't want money, and I don't want a promotion."

Li Xixue frowned slightly.

"What do you want?"

I want you.

These words were spoken.

Li Xixue was stunned.

She paused for a moment, stunned.

Then her ears started to turn red.

From the earlobe to the auricle, and then to the neck.

Her domineering demeanor was completely shattered by this one sentence.

Lu Yang just stared at her without saying a word.

Li Xixue's gaze drifted for a moment, landing on the desk, before returning to Lu Yang's face.

Then she quickly looked away and coughed.

"Can you...can you stop messing around?"

"I'm not making a scene, I'm being very serious."

"Commissioner Lu... Commissioner Lu."

Li Xixue pursed her lips: "I... I'm talking to you about work right now, and we already agreed that I'm your boss at the company, so you can't talk back to me."

"Yes, that's what work is all about, and you said you'd grant me anything if I win."

Lu Yang shrugged: "Are you trying to renege on your promise?"

"Who cheated!"

Li Xixue raised her flushed face again, looking at Lu Yang defiantly.

But Lu Yang was incredibly bold; he got up and moved closer to her, looking her in the eye.

soon.

Li Xixue was no match for her opponent and immediately lowered her head.

Every time she confronts him, she's the one who always loses.

"Lu Yang...this is the company."

"I know."

"There are still people outside..."

"It's okay, the door is closed."

Li Xixue paused for a moment.

Lu Yang smiled and immediately pressed himself against it.

Li Xixue's body tensed up.

This guy is probably going to...

It's one thing to kiss at school, and it's another to kiss in the square, but kissing at home is something she's already used to.

But this is a company.

And it happened in her office!

It's worth noting that employees pass by the corridor outside the door every so often.

As her personal assistant, Chen Yan could knock on the door and come in at any time.

If someone sees me and Lu Yang in the office...

Thinking about this...

Li Xixue quickly shook her head. If she didn't resist this time, something really bad would happen, since it was just too dangerous.

Besides, if he dares to kiss me in the office today, he might dare to do it in the conference room tomorrow, and the time after that in the lobby...

No no no.

She has to find a way to stop it.

Otherwise, continue...

Um, the next step is maternity leave.

Li Xixue took a deep breath, and her tone returned to normal.

Great, the CEO mode is back.

But Lu Yang noticed that she never looked him in the eye while she was speaking.

Li Xixue said with a slight hint of shyness, "The reward... we'll talk about it when we get home."
