Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Shen Qianshu said coldly, “Mr. Will, you simply drew us a huge cookie. In our country, there’s an idiom that says ‘filling your hunger by drawing a cookie’. You learned the essence of it. However, I don’t need your imaginary cookie.”

She paused and said frankly, “AG can give me anything that the B Family offers. I’m AG’s CEO in name. Now that Ye Ling’s back, I’m also AG CEO’s wife. I possess AG’s decision-making power. Be it the training, resources, or technology you mentioned earlier, we don’t need any of them. Furthermore, we are only an Haute Couture brand. Our target customers are the wealthy ladies in our country. We are not globally acclaimed. Our positioning is different from yours. We don’t need your offerings.”

Her requests were simple.

Yet, Will was avoiding them.

Both parties went back and forth. Will did not manage to take any advantage of them.

Gu Yuanan was listening at the side and thought secretly, Sister is indeed the Gu Family’s daughter. Her negotiation skills are polished, and she talks in a polished manner. She will not end the negotiation, yet she will not offend the other party. Despite having the upper hand, she will still leave the opponent some space. 

It was rare to have such a high EQ.

Will glanced at Shen Qianshu and then at Gu Yuanan. Will learned more about this plagiarism incident only recently. He had never really cared for these things, and his men would usually handle it well.

But why would Shen Qianshu help Li Chen in such a high-profile manner? This was quite suspicious.

Li Chen’s plagiarism case was indeed an unexpected mishap. When AG did not have the ability to compete with them, they took the opportunity to sabotage him. The entire jewelry industry was monopolized by one family, and not everyone flourished as well as them. Naturally, they called the shots. Li Chen took a huge loss.

However, the incident had passed for so many years, and the tone had already been set. If they reopened the case and clarified the truth, it was a form of damage for their company as well. Will chose to compensate him privately.

Li Chen did not need it.

Gu Yuanan said, “I don’t need your compensation. My career is stable, and my future is bright. I don’t need money, power, nothing. You will just be wasting your efforts if you try to compensate.”

Shen Qianshu chuckled. “Don’t be so absolute. If he were to give you his company’s stocks as compensation, you can accept it.”

Gu Yuanan was speechless. “…”

Will was speechless. “…”

Bailey, who had not spoken at all, was on the verge of exploding. The source of the problem was actually him. If he did not say anything at Shen Qianshu’s jewelry exhibition, he would not have attracted such a troublesome case. He trusted Megan too much. Who knew that Megan would plagiarize?

If he did not say anything, went back to check with Megan, clarified everything, and recalled the jewelry released on the market, nothing would have happened. The issue would have been solved silently and would not blow up to this irreparable state.

Will had already scolded him before. However, he made more mistakes and let Shen Qianshu catch him. Now, this issue would be even harder to solve. Bailey had always wanted to close this case quickly. Upon seeing how Shen Qianshu was spouting such nonsense, he felt extremely furious.

In his opinion, his CEO was already negotiating with her nicely. She should be grateful and agree to the reconciliation. If everyone retreated a step each, everything would be fine.

But Shen Qianshu did not appreciate their kindness.

“Miss Shen, this was my fault. I’m sorry. I should not have accused you of plagiarism at your jewelry show when I haven’t even clarified anything yet. I shouldn’t have defended Megan either. I know that I’m wrong. But this has nothing to do with the CEO and the B Family.”
