Chapter 884: I Don ‘t Like The Way You Look At Me

But in reality, because the customer base was too limited, the final profit was not necessarily higher than C brand’s.

There were many rich people, but rich people who bought from A brand would also buy from C brand. There was no conflict.

Moreover, the C brand products were even more diverse.

It was a good thing to make Qin Yang Department Store more famous by relying on A brand to earn some publicity. However, from a practical point of view, it didn’t matter if they wanted A brand or not.

Mufeng tapped his fingertips on the table and snorted. He did not know where A brand’s confidence came from.

“Talk to them, but if they don’t want to negotiate reasonably, then forget it,”

Mufeng said to Chengnan. “We don’t need their brand.”

“Yes,” Chengnan agreed and went to communicate with A brand.

However, it seemed that A brand wasn’t just aiming for size. The other party seemed to really want to enter Qin Yang Department Store, but they also wanted the C brand’s position.

Other than being an old rival of C brand, it was also because C brand’s position was indeed good.

A brand prided itself on being nobler than C brand. It was the first time it had entered China. As its first boutique in China, how could its location be inferior to C brand?

This was what A brand was really determined to do.

A brand was actually very concerned about entering Qin Yang Department Store for their first boutique in China.

Therefore, the CEO of A brand came to the capital personally.

As the first boutique of A brand in China, all the high-end department stores in China were fighting for it.

For this reason, the vice president of A brand came over to inspect.

In the end, they still felt that Qin Yang Department Store was the best match for them.

However, there were some disagreements about the location of the store, the distribution of profits, and the benefits that Qin Yang Department Store gave them, etc.

After all, they were currently the only A brand store in China. If they opened it in Qin Yang Department Store, it would be able to raise the status of Qin Yang Department Store.

At that time, Qin Yang Department Store’s status would definitely become the number one in China.

However, Qin Yang Department Store was harder to compromise than A brand had imagined.

After all, it was the first store of A brand in China, and A brand also valued it very much.

Hence, the CEO of A brand, Li Yate, brought some people to the capital to talk to Mufeng personally.

Given Mufeng’s status, it was naturally impossible for them to let their CEO of the Asia Pacific region come over.

If the CEO of the Asia Pacific region came over, Mufeng would not meet him personally.

A brand was not C brand.

Previously, Mufeng met Linda because of Jiang Xun.

Otherwise, Mufeng wouldn’t have come personally.

A brand was aware of this.

A brand contacted Chengnan and said that the CEO of A brand wanted to meet Mufeng.

Chengnan also told Mufeng.

Both sides agreed on a time.

So they arranged to meet at Qin Yang Hotel to discuss.

At night, Mufeng and Chengnan went to Qin Yang Hotel together.

The two of them went to the private dining room that they had booked.

Not long after the two of them arrived, in just two to three minutes, the CEO of A brand, Yate, also arrived.

Other than his assistant, there was also an Asian woman beside him.

“This is the person in charge of our brand in the Asia Pacific region, Jian. Coincidentally, she is not only from China, but also from Beijing. I heard that she graduated from the same high school as CEO Qin.” Yate had brown curly hair, a beard, and a big nose that had distinctive ethnic characteristics. “I heard that your two families are family friends?”

“Senior Brother Qin, surely you haven’t forgotten me, right?”Jian Mengqiao said to Mufeng with a smile.

It was just a joke. It was impossible for Mufeng to not remember her. Unexpectedly, Mufeng’s eyes, which rarely displayed any emotions, actually seemed somewhat blank.

He didn’t seem confused.

It was really hard to imagine confusion in Mufeng’s eyes.

This man never seemed to be confused.

At this moment, there was no confusion in Mufeng’s eyes. There was only a sense of unfamiliarity. Clearly, he really did not remember who Mengqiao was.

Mengqiao looked embarrassed. Yate looked at Mengqiao’s expression as if he suspected that Mengqiao had lied to him.

He had brought Mengqiao here because she was the CEO of the Asia Pacific region. Another reason was that Mengqiao had said that the Jian family and the Qin family had a good relationship. She had known Mufeng since she was young.

Mengqiao was able to become the CEO of the Asia Pacific region not only because she was capable, but also because she was Chinese.

China was also one of the largest markets in the Asia Pacific region, and its spending power was extremely high.

They needed someone who understood the market to be in charge.

In addition, the Jian Family that Mengqiao belonged to was also very important in China. It was evident that they could become friends with the Qin Family.

In this way, Mengqiao’s connections in China could not be underestimated.

It would bring a lot of convenience to their brand in the Chinese market.

This was the most advantageous point for Mengqiao to compete with her opponent for this seat.

“I’m sorry, I really don’t have any impression of her,” Mufeng said. “There were many students in Jixia Academy. Other than a few who are on good terms with me, I really don’t have much impression of the rest of the students.” Yate was even more suspicious of what Mengqiao had said.

Didn’t she say that she had a good relationship with Mufeng?

Of course, Yate wouldn’t simply believe Mengqiao’s words.

He had also sent people to investigate the relationship between the Jian family and the Qin family. He knew that the two families had been in contact with each other, which confirmed Mengqiao’s words.

But now, it seemed that it did not match the results of the investigation.

Yate couldn’t help but think of a conspiracy in his heart.

Could it be that the people he sent to investigate had joined forces with Mengqiao to deceive him?

The person he sent to investigate was bribed by Mengqiao?

Mengqiao smiled awkwardly and said, “Have you forgotten that our Jian and Qin families used to have frequent gatherings? When I was young, I followed my grandparents to the Qin family’s old residence.”

“By the way, are Old Master Qin and Old Madam Qin still healthy?” Mengqiao asked with a smile.

“I’ve had a lot of things to do since I was young, so I was not often at home. I don’t know when you’ve been there, so I don’t have any impression of it,”

Mufeng said calmly. “As for my grandparents, if it’s really as you said and the Qin and Jian families have a good relationship, how could Miss Jian not know about their health if she’s so concerned?”

Mengqiao’s expression froze completely. Finally, she couldn’t help but ask,

“Senior Brother Qin, do you have something against me?”

After all, they were now interested in a partnership, and she had a lot of say in whether or not A brand would choose to enter Qin Yang Department Store in the end.

How could Mufeng treat her with such an attitude!

She originally thought that Mufeng would soften his attitude because of this. Even if he really did not like her, he would at least deny it on the surface. Unexpectedly, Mufeng said directly, “I don’t like the way you look at me.”

Mengqiao was stunned for a moment.. Mufeng said to Yate, “Li Yate, if it’s really as CEO Jian said, and the Jian family has such a good relationship with my family, and she has such a good relationship with me, aren’t you worried that she will abuse her power for personal gain?”
