Chapter 204 A Fortunate Encounter

"Since that's the case, then make them pay damages! Why not make them pay if they cancelled the order for no reason?"

Mother-in-law heard Xia Qingzhu's words, her expression changed abruptly, and she said in a fit of anger.

Currently, their family's main source of income relied on this position of Xia Qingzhu's.

If something went wrong with Xia Qingzhu's business, their whole family would be left starving!

"Mom! Do you think it's that easy to just demand compensation? If I offend these companies, even if I get their breach of contract penalties, I'll soon lose it all back!"

Xia Qingzhu sighed, her face full of grievance; she had absolutely no other options.

Offending these big companies would be self-destruction!

Seeing Xia Qingzhu's aggrieved expression, Ye Fan wished he could rush over immediately and pull her into his arms to comfort her.

All of this, of course, was his doing.

This was the effect he wanted!

Next, he just needed to personally step in and resolve this trouble for Xia Qingzhu, and he would definitely gain her favor!

Thinking of this, Ye Fan knew his opportunity had arrived. He immediately walked over and said with a smile, "Qingzhu, I thought it was something big. It turns out it's just such a small matter? If you need orders, isn't that simple? Hubby here..."

Before he could continue.

Mother-in-law was furious, shouting viciously, "Shut your damn mouth! It's all because of you, you jinx! If you hadn't shat your pants last time, would the partners have cancelled the orders?"

"You good-for-nothing, you can't help at all. Get lost immediately and stop causing trouble for my daughter. If it weren't for Qingzhu protecting you, I'd love to slap you to death with a slipper!"

Ye Fan's expression was very ugly.

If it weren't for Xia Qingzhu's sake, he really wanted to slap her!

But for now, he couldn't directly reveal his identity, so he could only forcibly suppress the anger in his heart.

"Qingzhu, don't worry! I can guarantee that the company will soon have big orders, and you will get through this crisis very soon!"

Xia Qingzhu didn't take Ye Fan's words seriously at all and secretly wiped away her tears.

Just at this moment.

Xia Qingzhu's phone rang.

She immediately picked up the phone, looked at the caller ID, and quickly answered, calling out, "Hello, President Yan."

"President Xia, I heard your company lost a few big orders. It won't affect your company's performance, will it?" A man's voice came from the other end of the line.

"It has a huge impact! That's why I'd like to ask President Yan for help, to put in a good word for us so that President Li and the others don't cancel the orders. If this can be accomplished, then President Yan, you will be our company's great benefactor!"

Xia Qingzhu's tone revealed a hint of pleading.

This President Yan who called her was considered a fairly famous big boss in the capital.

If President Yan could personally step in, then it was very likely he could settle this matter!

"President Xia, you think too highly of me. I can't do anything about the matter between your company and Old Li."

"Is that so..."

Xia Qingzhu's eyes dimmed, and she felt downcast.

"However! It's not that I can't help at all. If President Xia is in such urgent need of orders, our company happens to have a new project. How about we have a meal together and discuss this new project?"

"That would be great! President Yan, when are you free?"

"I'm free at noon today!"

"See you at noon then!"

The call ended.

Xia Qingzhu looked very excited, hurriedly grabbing her mother's hand and saying excitedly, "Mom! I'm going to negotiate a big deal. If this deal goes through smoothly, we won't have to worry about orders anymore!"

"Really?"

Mother-in-law suddenly thought of something and asked tentatively, "Daughter! You shouldn't have the intention to harm others, but you must have the intention to guard against them! This President Yan helping you at this time, could he have ulterior motives?"

"Mom! Stop overthinking it. President Yan is just engaging in normal business cooperation with me; how could he have any other motives?"

Mother-in-law shook her head and said solemnly, "Daughter, you are too naive. Your company is in trouble right now, and suddenly someone wants to help you get through it. If you think he doesn't have other ideas, do you think that's possible?"

"This President Yan probably has his eyes on you. You should dress up well later. If you think he's decent enough, then... you understand, right?"

"Finding a rich and powerful man is much better than finding a good-for-nothing who stays at home living off of you every day!"

Ye Fan narrowed his eyes slightly.

His expression was not very good.

The other party asking Xia Qingzhu out to dinner at this time was clearly harboring ill intentions.

Daring to have crooked thoughts about his wife?

Simply courting death!

"Mom, stop spouting nonsense. It's almost noon, I'm going to head over!"

Xia Qingzhu didn't want to listen to her mother's nagging, so she hurriedly went into the bedroom, grabbed her bag, and left the house.

Seeing Xia Qingzhu putting on her shoes at the door, Ye Fan hurriedly walked up and said, "Qingzhu, do you want me to drive you?"

"No need!"

Xia Qingzhu put on her high heels, left the house, and drove to the restaurant.

Ye Fan rode a shared electric scooter, following behind Xia Qingzhu's car.

If that President Yan dared to have designs on Xia Qingzhu, he would definitely teach him a lesson!

Xia Qingzhu soon arrived at the entrance of a restaurant in the capital.

A Waiter in the corner of the restaurant saw Xia Qingzhu, then noticed the sneaky Ye Fan behind her, and couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile.

This Waiter was none other than Jiang Chenfeng!

He knew there was a plot point today that would earn him a system reward, so he came to the restaurant early to wait.

The big boss named President Yan was, of course, after Xia Qingzhu's beauty!

But how could Xia Qingzhu agree to President Yan's unreasonable demands?

The two would soon have a falling out, and when President Yan was about to get handsy, Ye Fan would appear just in time to give him a severe lesson.

After dealing with President Yan, Ye Fan would also help Xia Qingzhu secure an order, solving her immediate crisis.

After doing all this, it would completely change Xia Qingzhu's view of Ye Fan!

Ye Fan was currently standing sneakily outside the shop, his gaze fixed on Xia Qingzhu.

Xia Qingzhu entered the restaurant, scanned her surroundings, and soon spotted President Yan.

President Yan, over forty, was a bit overweight and looked quite greasy. He waved at Xia Qingzhu, "President Xia, over here!"

Xia Qingzhu walked over quickly and said apologetically, "President Yan, I'm really sorry. There was some traffic on the road, making you wait for a long time!"

"President Xia, you are too polite. Actually, I only just arrived, I haven't waited long! Being able to have a meal with a great beauty like President Xia is truly a great honor for me!"
