The man in the suit finally recognized Wang Peng. He slapped his forehead and walked up to Wang Peng. “So it’s Mr. Wang Peng. Our company has wanted to work with you before, but unfortunately, we haven’t been able to secure an appointment with you.
“It’s such a coincidence to meet you today. Do you think we should discuss our potential cooperation?”
Wang Peng’s jewelry business was highly successful, with a market both domestically and internationally. A long-term collaboration with Wang Peng’s jewelry business would secure their company’s financial prospects for the foreseeable future.
Wang Peng regarded him coldly. “You’ve unjustly accused my partner. Do you think it’s appropriate to discuss cooperation with me at this point?”
The man in the suit realized that Xia Wan was a friend of Wang Peng.
He quickly turned to Xia Wan and said, “I apologize, Miss. What transpired between you and my mother was a misunderstanding. I will have a talk with my mother later to ensure she refrains from making false accusations again.”
The specifics of who took whose seat on the train were inconsequential to the man in the suit. His primary goal was to cultivate a favorable relationship with Wang Peng, potentially securing a substantial order that could propel his career within the company.
Xia Wan sneered inwardly.
The world could be harshly realistic.
Despite her best efforts to explain herself, no one believed her. Wang Peng, with his casual words, easily attracted admiration and favor. This was the stark contrast brought about by differing social statuses.
Wang Peng wasn’t inclined to engage with the man in the suit. He made it clear that he wasn’t currently considering cooperation, then invited Xia Wan into the private room.
Observing their entry into the private room, the man in the suit cast an irritated glare at the old lady.
“Mom, who did you offend? Wang Peng is a major client of our company who we are eager to establish ties with. If the higher-ups find out I’ve had a falling out with him, it could jeopardize my job.”
The old lady was frantic. Her son provided her and her grandson with financial support each month.
If her son’s job suffered due to this incident, they would be left without any means of support.
“Son, what should we do now?” she asked anxiously. “Should I apologize to that girl right now?”
The man in the suit shot her a disapproving look. “It’s too late for that now. I hope Mr. Wang Peng won’t hold this against us. Be cautious not to offend anyone in the future. Perhaps the other party holds a high social status.”
Old Mrs. Han nodded in agreement but couldn’t help but murmur to herself. She hadn’t expected that the girl had such a high status.
In the private room, Wang Peng poured tea for Zhou En and Xia Wan.
Zhou En appeared composed, but inwardly, she was thrilled. She knew of Wang Peng’s reputation. His jewelry business was extensive, and Zhou Qiao had studied his jewelry designs in the past.
The designs were incredibly unique, and she held Wang Peng in high esteem.
She never expected to encounter such an influential figure who happened to be friends with Xia Wan. Zhou Qiao felt that this trip had been enlightening, expanding her knowledge significantly.
Simultaneously, she realized that her initial intention of acting as Xia Wan’s guide in the capital had taken an entirely different turn.
Xia Wan retrieved the 12 design drawings from her bag and presented them to
Wang Peng.
“These are designs I created based on the twelve zodiac signs.
“I’ve crafted a bracelet, earrings, and necklace for each design. I can introduce variations in color or design couple-themed pieces.”
Wang Peng accepted the designs and immediately examined them with fascination. The more he studied them, the more pleased he became.
Wang Peng commended her, saying, “You’ve created three variations for each design, so I should offer a higher price. How about 5,000 yuan per design?”
Xia Wan had ushered Zhou En into the private room while discussing business, indicating her belief that Zhou En could be privy to their conversation. Consequently, Wang Peng didn’t conceal anything from Zhou En.
Zhou En’s hands trembled upon hearing the proposed price of 5,000 yuan per design.
She never expected Xia Wan to be so adept at making money. It was no wonder she had been so generous when tutoring Xia Feng.
Xia Wan nodded, expressing her agreement with Wang Peng’s offer.
After all, this represented the base price, and when Wang Peng initiated production, she would still receive a share of the profits.
Wang Peng handed a card to Xia Wan. “Take this card for now. I’ll transfer the money to it later.”
Xia Wan accepted the card..
