Chapter 708: A Guy Needs to be Responsible

Many businessmen who were around were surrounding Duff and Lan You in particular. All those who were here were all very smart. The failure of one project wouldn’t amount to anything. As long as they could be connected to Lan You, there would always be projects to do. Lan Ling was on the stage. This head of the family in name was looking more like an emcee.

In the VIP room, Yan Xiaosu, Ye Zisu and the rest were looking dull and stern. The room was all quiet.

After some time, Gabre finally spoke,” Jasper, we were in this because we trusted you. See what it had become. We have all become jokes. How could we continue running this company?”

“Our family was still waiting for my good news. It’s great now that I have become the joke.” said Mitchell as he shook his head helplessly.

Pila was looking stern. “The other party had clearly gotten hold of our proposal. This matter is worse than failing. It was really embarrassing.”

This was also where others felt despondent. However, even if they wished to investigate, how do they do it? They were too many people who came into contact with this proposal such as Ye Zisu’s team, the Tita tribes and those that were present. To ensure effectiveness, Ye Zisu had asked for the opinions of numerous giants and even the Wise ones previously. All these were areas where the proposal could have been leaked. For professionals, all they needed were to have a general direction to continue their set up.

“How could we be so naive in doing business? I wouldn’t want to continue with this anymore.” said Mitchell. “Jasper, you have to give me an explanation.”

“That’s also what I mean. Jasper. It is still alright for me to lose the money I spent on women. However, now that I have become the joke, how can we settle this?” said Pila. “It isn’t that your brother isn’t being kind. This fatty looks just like a local bandit. Even if others had stolen our design, what about his connections? What about his network?!”

This was straight to the point. Yan Xiaosu looked down and didn’t say a word. Jasper took a look, gritted his teeth and said,” I would admit that I had failed in this. Sell your stakes to me and I will cover your losses. As for the penalties, let’s do it the traditional way.”

“Gabre, what’s your view? Would you want to continue playing with him?” asked Pila.

“We are all friends. Aren’t you going a bit too far by doing so. Didn’t we just lose some money? It’s not a big deal.” replied Gabre.

“Haha, CK Organisation could indeed speak louder with its deeper pockets. You guys can continue playing slowly. I won’t be following.” Mitchell laughed. Since Jasper had covered his loss, they shouldn’t go overboard and should stop when the situation was advantageous to them. Following which, the two of them left chatting happily.

The room quietened down once again. Jasper sighed,” It seemed that I wasn’t a complete failure as a person. At least I made a friend.”

Gabre shook his head helplessly. “Losing some money is a small matter. The main issue was that this was too embarrassing. I would probably be mocked for a period of time. However to be in business, my skin couldn’t be that thin. I just have to climb up from where I fell.”

Ye Zisu clapped her hands lightly and said,” Great. There’s no longer any external people. Now would be commencement of the official meeting of Little Lucky Star Tita Star branch.”

“It has already come to this, what meeting do we need?” Jasper definitely had some complaints. It was just that he didn’t know who to talk to at this moment.

The “wretched-looking” Su who had his head lowered all along lifted his head and revealed a smile. “Jasper, don’t be in a rush. Wasn’t the contract not signed yet? What were you worrying about?”

Jasper and Gabre was stunned. They didn’t know what Yan Xiaosu wanted to do.

Ye Zisu smiled. “It’s about time. I would like you all to witness a show.”

Jasper and Gabre were baffled. What kind of mysterious things were they still doing at this moment? However, the two of them no longer had the strength to quarrel.

The guests of the signing conference had arrived one after another. Below the stage, Duff and Lan You were having a casual and happy chat and were waiting for Mu Sen’s opening.

Mu Sen’s gaze swept across the crowd. “I would like to thank everyone for being here. The construction of the Tita Star would require everyone’s joint effort. No matter if there were enough opportunities for cooperation, I would like to represent the people of Tita and expressed our gratitude.”

Everyone was clapping as Mu Sen took a bow. “The people of Tita’s thoughts on doing business are actually not that complicated. There is only one thing and that is honesty. Anyone who employs schemes to try to earn a profit on Tita Star would not be welcome.”

Instantly, everyone below the stage was whispering to one another. This opening didn’t seem right.

At this moment, the big screen lighted up… Wasn’t that person in the screen Duff and Lan You? There was also another person and surprisingly, he was Pila.

The contents of their conversation and the process of their transaction had been recorded. Lan You’s arrogance, derogatory words on Lan Ling about her being just a brat and that he should be the Patriarch, contents about the people of Tita having to suck up to him and other related comments had been recorded. As for Pila, he had insulted Ye Zisu and the rest. They were trying to reap the benefits of the hard work put in by the others. How great it was.

Lan You and his group of people had turned into stone. As for Pila, he was completely stunned.

“Tita Star would not welcome these type of people. Therefore, we had decided to sign the armour project with Little Lucky Star Company. At the same time, we hope that Miss Ye Zisu could accept our sincere apologies. The crystals of knowledge are also precious on Tita Star and should be protected.” Mu Sen’s stature might be small but every word was loud and clear.

Lan Ling also stood up. “As the Matriarch of the Lan Family and a committee member of the Milky Way Alliance, I apologise on behalf of this person from my family. Anyone who violates the rules of the Tita Star would face heavy punishment without fail.”

At this moment, no one dared to treat this Matriarch as just an ornament. Who knew about the role she played in this.

This was probably… a complete trap.

Jasper and Gabre were dumbfounded as they looked at Yan Xiaosu. Fatty Yan smiled and said,” How was it? Did you feel that Brother Yan wasn’t a reliable person to do things?”

Only Jasper and Gabre themselves would know how much trust they had for Yan Xiaosu. However at this moment, they really felt that their decision was wise.

“If you all are responsible, I will also be responsible for my actions. Rest assured our plans on Tita Star have just begun. Let’s sign the contract first. We have a dinner appointment with Mu Sen in a while.”

Yan Xiaosu waved his hands and no longer had the finished looks he had previously.

Jasper and Gabre looked at each other and could tell the surprise in the other party’s eyes. This definitely meant that they had become the comrades of Yan Xiaosu.

The parties that had real control over Tita Star were still Mu Sen and Lan Ling. The two of them was probably making use of this opportunity to reorganize the people within the Lan Family and amongst the people of Tita. The relationship between them was definitely not simply measured by interests.

The truth was that Jasper felt conflicted previously. He also wanted to just take the easy way out and it wasn’t that he had not thought about it. However, in the end he felt that as a man, he should at least be responsible. Wasn’t failure the mother of success? This phrase was really the truth!

This brother was still the most reliable!

After securing a full victory, Yan Xiaosu was calm instead. He didn’t tell Wang Zheng about the conflicted thoughts he had. From this incident, he had learnt to be responsible. When faced with a difficult problem, as long as he could solve it himself, he would have to do so.

However, he had received news from Zhang Shan that Wang Zheng had returned. It was just that from the tone of Zhang Shan, Wang Zheng had probably returned from a highly life-threatening event. When compared with what Wang Zheng had experienced, Yan Xiaosu felt that what he had experienced was nothing.

Step by step, Yan Xiaosu’s mind was maturing.
