Meanwhile, at another location...
In the CBD building of Yang Group.
Inside an office.
Yang Jingying was drowsy, lazily letting out a yawn.
As long as she chose to change her choice in the dream,
the future where Xu Mo would die
would cease to exist.
Despite losing a cooperation opportunity worth tens of billions,
Yang Jingying didn't have the slightest regret.
Knock knock knock...
There was a knocking sound from outside the door.
"Come in."
Yang Jingying yawned again, squinting her eyes, and said lazily.
"President Yang."
A female secretary walked in holding an old parchment scroll.
"What is it?"
Yang Jingying had been working too hard lately, and she was feeling drowsy, her eyelids heavy.
"President Yang, a delivery guy wanted to give you this parchment scroll."
At that moment,
Instantly,
Yang Jingying wasn't sleepy anymore!
She seemed to have thought of something.
Her expression suddenly turned cold.
She said coldly,
"I don't want it!"
"Send it back!"
"If you can't return it, throw it away. I don't want it sullying my eyes."
Lin Fan is such a petty person!
The deal already fell through!
Yet he still shamelessly has someone deliver things here.
How shameless.
Does he think the Yang family is a junkyard?
The female secretary was completely bewildered.
Is President Yang going through menopause?
Why is she so angry?
But since the president had given her orders,
The little secretary could only comply, looking down at the parchment scroll in her hands, muttering to herself as she walked:
"Next time anything comes from Xu Corporation, I'll just throw it all away."
Her voice was very soft.
But unfortunately,
Yang Jingying heard it.
She was already angry at that moment.
All her senses were heightened.
"Wait!"
Yang Jingying's voice rang out.
Startling the female secretary.
"Y-yes... what else do you need, President Yang?"
"What did you just say?"
Faced with Yang Jingying's stern questioning,
The female secretary turned pale, stammering:
"What do you need..."
"Not that, what you were muttering just now."
"J-just throw it all away..."
"Not that either, continue!"
"From... from Xu Corporation."
Yang Jingying's fine eyebrows furrowed, her slender white index finger beckoned to the secretary.
"Bring it here."
The secretary nodded and hurried over, not daring to show any negligence.
She respectfully placed the rolled-up parchment on the desk.
"Have you looked at this?"
Yang Jingying asked, looking at her.
The secretary shook her head like a rattle drum.
"No, when the delivery guy came, I happened to run into him. I thought it must be something important for President Yang, so I brought it straight to your office without any delay."
Yang Jingying felt an inexplicable anticipation in her heart, but tried to sound casual as she asked,
"Did you ask the delivery guy which person from Xu Corporation it was from?"
"I did," the secretary nodded respectfully and said.
A blush
Quietly crept up Yang Jingying's fair neck.
Her delicate features took on a faint reddish tinge.
Her heart was beating fast: thump, thump.
The blush was so faint
That the secretary didn't notice anything unusual about her president.
"Was it Xu Mo?"
"It was..." the secretary got caught up in the rhythm for a moment, then quickly corrected herself.
"No, it wasn't."
o(￣ヘ￣o＃)
Yang Jingying's beautiful eyes glared at her.
Her tone carried displeasure.
"Which is it?!"
"It wasn't," the secretary said tearfully.
"President Yang, it was like this - when I asked, the delivery guy said he just picked up the item from Xu Corporation's front desk and delivered it directly.
The phone number and name given were just those of Xu Corporation's front desk."
Sigh...
Yang Jingying felt empty inside and let out a long breath.
She waved her delicate hand.
"I see, you may go now."
"Yes."
Having received permission,
The secretary didn't dare linger.
She hurriedly left.
It was already generous of Yang Jingying not to pursue her earlier verbal slip-up.
Soon after,
Only Yang Jingying remained in the office.
She untied the string binding the parchment scroll.
This parchment paper
Was clearly different from the one Lin Fan had.
It looked more antique.
She casually glanced at the contents.
In just an instant,
Yang Jingying's beautiful eyes grew wide.
Her attention turned to the title.
"Volcanic Mud Beauty Product?"
Then her classical beautiful oval face took on a serious expression.
Her delicate hand holding the parchment
Couldn't help but tremble.
Her gaze fixed on the detailed cosmetic formula recorded on it!
After quite a while,
Yang Jingying finally withdrew her gaze.
But her small hand still gripped the parchment tightly.
As an industry insider,
With relevant professional knowledge,
She understood many technical terms at a glance.
It's no exaggeration to say
This volcanic mud beauty product formula was priceless.
Its value far exceeded what Lin Fan had brought this morning.
Moreover, the raw materials described for making the volcanic mud
Were three times cheaper than Lin Fan's!
After all, they were all readily available beauty product ingredients found in the market.
Even more incredibly,
According to the effects described on this parchment,
Multiple benefits including acne removal, spot removal, whitening were combined.
Suitable for all skin types including oily, dry, combination skin!
Using the process of elimination,
Besides Xu Mo,
Yang Jingying really couldn't think of which fool from Xu Corporation
Would freely give her - give the Yang family - such a massive gift worth hundreds of billions in liquid assets!
She glanced at the calendar on her desk.
Then suddenly burst into a smile,
Beautiful as a flower.
"Fifteen years, little Mo, you really are quite the strategist."
"This beauty product can make up for fifteen gifts."
"But, I still wish you would give it to me in person."
Yang Jingying stood up from her executive chair.
Her birthday was coming up in a few days.
What else could this be but a gift?
Since graduating from elementary school,
Her contact with Xu Mo gradually decreased.
Until they eventually became strangers, just passing acquaintances.
Whenever she saw Xu Mo interacting with those flirtatious girls,
Yang Jingying's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
Many times,
She wanted to rush over and drive those seductive hussies away.
Wanted to loudly declare
That Xu Mo belonged to her alone!
But she couldn't.
The Yang family's core strength in her generation
Rested only with her and her sister Yang Jingxuan.
Yang Jingxuan had no interest in business.
Compared to business,
She preferred punishing evil and promoting good, upholding her so-called justice.
The heavy burden of the Yang family fell entirely on Yang Jingying's shoulders.
And she was a woman.
The word 'choice' became her most longed-for term.
She had planned to wait quietly for Xu Mo, willing to wait no matter how long.
Even if Xu Mo got married and had children,
Even if the woman by his side wasn't her,
Yang Jingxuan wouldn't mind.
All she could think about was two elderly people finally crossing mountains and waters, crossing heaven and earth.
"Once again, you're the one who provoked me first."
"This time, I won't stand by silently watching anymore."
Leaving the president's office,
Yang Jingying tightly gripped the parchment scroll and walked straight toward the R&D department.
Click clack click clack----
Her shoe soles hit the ground, making crisp rhythmic beautiful sounds.
