Subconsciously, Qin Chuan glanced at Leng Ningshuang.
He found Leng Ningshuang's entire face ashen, her icy eyes hiding unspeakable disappointment and anger.
Clearly, she seemed to have known the root cause of Ouyang Nan's outburst long ago, but faced with such irrational jealousy, she truly didn't know what to say.
"Group Leader Ouyang, I think you've really misunderstood!"
Qin Chuan felt a mix of amusement and helplessness.
Leng Ningshuang, such a beautiful and capable woman, how could she have found such an eccentric partner? To make such a fuss over such a trivial matter, one would be hard-pressed to find many like him in the world.
"The reason Group Leader Leng is helping us is purely because we are a research and development enterprise from a small, eighteenth-tier county town. She is kind-hearted and believes it is rare for such an enterprise to emerge from a place like ours, which is why she worked hard to secure a preferential spot for us."
"Before this, I guarantee the future of our factory, I truly did not know Group Leader Leng."
Qin Chuan said.
"Heh!"
However, Ouyang Nan's usual cold laughter was his only response.
"I'd have to be an idiot to believe you!"
"You two lovebirds, you must have discussed this excuse beforehand, it's almost identical. This slut also said she was just being kind for a moment, wanting to help!"
"I ask you, you stinking slut, how many companies come to advertise with us every day? Many of them are from remote, impoverished areas."
"Why haven't I seen you show mercy to any of them?"
Ouyang Nan unleashed a torrent of foul and venomous abuse at Leng Ningshuang.
"As I see it, you're just being promiscuous and wanton. You saw that he's handsome and rich, and your heart started to flutter. You deliberately created some benefits to try and seduce him..."
Slap!!!
The crisp sound of a slap once again echoed through the office, interrupting Ouyang Nan's words.
However, this time the perpetrator was Leng Ningshuang. She truly couldn't take it anymore, a bone-chilling cold emanated from her entire being, her ample chest heaving with rage.
"Ouyang Nan, you are shameless!!"
Ouyang Nan clutched his face, which was throbbing with pain, his eyes filled with venom: "Stinking slut, you dare to hit me..."
"Enough!"
Seeing that things were seemingly getting worse, Director Xie sternly reprimanded them with a somber expression.
He rubbed his aching forehead. While he had always known his brother-in-law was unreliable, his words and actions today still opened his eyes.
"Ouyang Nan, get out! Wait outside!"
"You're not going anywhere without my permission!"
Ouyang Nan left with a resentful glare, slamming the door shut.
"Boss Qin, I am truly sorry, to have made you witness such a spectacle!"
Director Xie bowed and apologized again to Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan's expression was cold and mocking: "Director Xie truly has a good relative. I genuinely worry that one day, your position will be dragged down by someone, and your bright future will be ruined!"
Director Xie, who had been smiling, immediately stiffened. He was a sharp man, how could he not grasp the implied meaning in Qin Chuan's words?
This was clearly telling him that if the outcome of today's handling was unsatisfactory, he might very well expose everything that had happened.
And when that happened, it wouldn't just be Ouyang Nan who would be in trouble...
"Boss Qin, please rest assured! I will give you a complete explanation!"
Director Xie said quickly.
"Group Leader Leng!"
After saying this, Director Xie suddenly called out to Leng Ningshuang.
"Director!"
Leng Ningshuang looked up.
"Boss Qin's advertisement hasn't started filming yet, has it?"
"Yes!"
"Immediately call Qiao Qian and have him come back quickly to be responsible for Boss Qin's advertisement filming."
Director Xie said quickly. Fearing that Qin Chuan might not understand his intentions, he immediately explained, "Qiao Qian is our best photographer here. His photography skills and professional level are top-notch in the industry."
Qin Chuan's expression was calm. Ye Meiyun, Ge Lan, and Liu Kaihe, who stood behind him, all's eyes lit up.
"Yes, Director!"
After receiving the order, Leng Ningshuang turned to leave.
"Wait a moment!"
Director Xie called out again.
Leng Ningshuang stopped.
"Group Leader Leng, who did you get approval from for Boss Qin's preferential spot?"
"Director, I approved it!"
This time, before Leng Ningshuang could answer, Director Ma quickly replied.
"What level did you use?"
Director Xie asked again.
"Level B!"
Director Ma said.
"Level B, so that's a ten percent discount..."
Director Xie seemed to be muttering to himself, or perhaps speaking to someone specific.
After a long moment, his gaze hardened, revealing a determined expression.
"Director Ma, later, remove one from the Level A spots and replace it with Boss Qin's name!"
Director Ma's face changed, and he feigned an exaggerated expression of cooperation.
"Director, Level A offers a full twenty-five percent discount, and the advertising units have already been assigned. Doing this might cause bigger trouble!"
This time, even Leng Ningshuang's pretty face shifted slightly. It was clear that Level A spots seemed very precious.
Director Xie, however, was decisive and waved his hand briskly: "We'll deal with future problems later. Just do as I say!"
"Yes, Director!"
Director Ma dared not say more and obediently agreed.
Only then did Director Xie turn his gaze back to Qin Chuan, his face full of smiles: "Boss Qin, are you satisfied with my arrangement?"
On the opposite sofa, Qin Chuan, who had been expressionless all along, finally showed a smile.
"Director Xie, as expected of someone capable of great things. Your current achievements are well-deserved!"
"This slap I received was worth it!"
Behind Qin Chuan, Ye Meiyun, Ge Lan, and Liu Kaihe all wore expressions of intense excitement.
Director Xie had personally intervened to raise their advertisement discount from Level B to Level A.
Although they didn't know how the specific levels were divided within CCTV, the discount was real, tangible money.
The previous ten percent discount had already saved them two hundred and forty thousand yuan.
Now, with a twenty-five percent discount, how much would that be?
A full six hundred thousand yuan!
Such a sum, it had to be said, was extremely enticing!
This Director Xie was quite ruthless, decisive in his actions, truly worthy of being the director of CCTV's advertising department.
"As long as Boss Qin is satisfied!"
"Haha!!"
Director Xie laughed heartily: "This slap of yours is truly priceless!"
"I almost wish someone would slap me like that in the future, then it could become a path to fortune."
At his words, many people couldn't help but laugh.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the office was cheerful.
"Um... Boss Qin, since we've settled everything, could you hand over the memory card from the camera to us now?"
Suddenly, Director Xie said to Qin Chuan with a beaming smile.
