"Tonight, we've already fallen out with Kedo!"
"Future negotiations will inevitably be more arduous!"
Liu Kai Xuan said solemnly, "This situation is not what I wanted to see!"
"However, there's no need for us to blame ourselves for what happened tonight!"
"The root cause of the situation developing to this point is the other party's insufficient willingness to cooperate!"
"During the cooperation, the most basic respect was lacking!"
"If they continue with this attitude, I don't think we have anything left to discuss!"
"Uh..."
Li Ya said softly, "How about this, boss? It's reasonable for us to take a break and calm down for a while!"
"But the unpleasantness tonight happened after all, during drinks, so we shouldn't take it too seriously!"
"Tomorrow afternoon, I'll find a suitable time to communicate with Wo Ao!"
"Okay, that's fine," Liu Kai Xuan nodded.
Li Ya asked again, "By the way, boss, what are your thoughts on the few demands Wo Ao made?"
Liu Kai Xuan replied earnestly, "The three demands they made are purely unreasonable!"
"Also, Li Ya, don't discuss this matter with me alone!"
"Tomorrow morning, you should go and communicate thoroughly with Ouyang Xue, and hear her thoughts!"
"Okay boss, I understand!"
Li Ya nodded, "This collaboration was initiated by Ouyang Xue, and I'm only assisting her!"
"For such a major decision, I naturally cannot bypass her!"
Riverbend Villa.
Before entering the villa gate, Ouyang Xue specifically wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the house, Ouyang Yu noticed something was wrong.
"Sis, why are you crying? Did that scoundrel Liu Kai Xuan bully you again?"
"No, don't overthink it!"
Ouyang Xue replied with forced composure, "I'm fine, I'm not crying!"
"Sis, please stop pretending, okay?"
Ouyang Yu said in a low voice, "Your eyes are all swollen from crying. Can't I tell?"
"I..."
Ouyang Xue said seriously, "I encountered a small problem at work. It has nothing to do with Liu Kai Xuan!"
"Who exactly bullied you? Tell me quickly!"
Ouyang Yu said anxiously, "Sis, if you don't tell me the truth, I'm going to get really angry!"
After some thought, Ouyang Xue recounted her experience from that evening to Ouyang Yu.
"What? Those foreign guys were causing trouble?"
"These bastards are too much! I must..."
"Liu Kai Xuan was there at the time, why didn't he do anything?"
Ouyang Yu instinctively wanted to blame Liu Kai Xuan, but Ouyang Xue quickly explained.
"Xiao Yu, you misunderstood. The situation was urgent. It was the chairman who sternly rebuked that scoundrel, which allowed me to escape!"
"It's just that that kid is too cowardly. If I had been there, I would have taught that foreigner a lesson long ago!"
"We can't let this matter go like this. Tomorrow, I'll find someone to teach those brutes a lesson!"
"Enough!"
Ouyang Xue said sternly, "Xiao Yu, please stop causing more trouble for me!"
"I know you mean well, but you have to consider the reality of the situation!"
"Our two companies are currently in negotiations for collaboration. If you go and make trouble like this, it won't solve any problems!"
"On the contrary, it will only complicate simple issues and lead to an unresolvable situation in the end!"
Ouyang Yu replied, "You don't want me to get involved in this matter, that's fine!"
"But you have to promise me that next time there's a negotiation, you'll let me go with you to protect your safety!"
"Anyway, I can't trust that coward Liu Kai Xuan anymore. He's completely incapable of protecting you!"
Ouyang Xue said angrily, "Xiao Yu, you're going too far now!"
"You don't understand the rules of the business world. If you keep acting recklessly like this, it could lead to huge losses for our company!"
"The last time you caused trouble at the company, it already had a significant negative impact!"
"No matter what, I don't want to see the same thing happen a second time!"
"I'm telling you all this today not for you to cause trouble, but because I don't want there to be any rifts between us sisters!"
Ouyang Yu nodded, indicating she understood.
But soon, she raised a new point, "Sis, actually, our own company is developing quite well now!"
"You really don't need to live under someone else's roof and be subjected to their moods!"
"As two girls, developing some industries and earning enough to cover our expenses is already quite good!"
"Moreover, our current industries have surpassed the vast majority of people!"
"Why do you have to make things difficult for yourself? Isn't it better to just enjoy our comfortable lives?"
Ouyang Xue remained patient in response to Ouyang Yu's doubts.
"Xiao Yu, if I were someone who easily settled for the status quo, our sisters would still be ordinary workers now!"
"Don't be complacent just because of a little achievement!"
"At our age, this is the time to strive hard!"
"If we choose comfort in our prime years of striving, then when we lack the energy to strive, all that will be left is regret!"
"Uh..." Ouyang Yu frowned.
She wanted to say more, but ultimately couldn't bring herself to speak.
Ouyang Xue had returned from studying abroad, but Ouyang Yu had no overseas study experience!
When Ouyang Xue returned from abroad, Ouyang Yu was working in a factory at the time.
At that time, Ouyang Yu even suggested that Ouyang Xue work with her at the factory.
However, Ouyang Xue insisted on starting her own business and developed her small company under immense pressure.
Ouyang Yu claimed to be helping Ouyang Xue develop the company, but in reality, she was basically enjoying the fruits of their labor.
If Ouyang Xue hadn't taken that bold leap of faith back then, would Ouyang Yu have the comfortable and respectable life she has now?
Furthermore, when Ouyang Xue initially wanted to start her own company, Ouyang Yu had strongly advised against it.
Now, Ouyang Xue's words made Ouyang Yu recall some past events.
A thought crossed Ouyang Yu's mind: am I truly becoming a stumbling block in my sister's career path?
Whatever my sister wants to develop, I oppose it?
And then try to instill in her the mindset of being content with the status quo?
If this is the case, then their close sisterly bond might not last much longer.
Originally, Ouyang Yu had planned to use this opportunity to persuade her sister.
Unexpectedly, not only did her plan fail, but she herself was also persuaded in reverse by Ouyang Xue.
