"My identity?" Wei Yumeng frowned upon hearing this.
After speaking, Xize seemed to lose interest in Wei Yumeng and turned to the employee. "Go and discuss it with customs again. If it's still no good, notify the PR department to contact them and try to minimize the loss this time."
"...Yes." The employee clearly disagreed with this approach, but since their superior had spoken, they could only comply.
Xize took a deep breath, then looked back at Wei Yumeng, resuming his usual polite demeanor. "Miss Wei, let's proceed to the next location."
However, this time Wei Yumeng didn't follow him forward but stood still, looking at Xize.
While she had no complaints about the company's scale or operating status, she had many reservations about Xize.
Xize's duplicity was unbearable; no one would want to continue cooperating with such a person.
Wei Yumeng even doubted if the company genuinely wished to cooperate with Zhan Group. If everyone was like Xize, putting on a front while having ulterior motives, she would be utterly exhausted.
"Mr. Xize, I hope we can have a proper talk, not about business, but about us."
Upon hearing this, Xize showed no particular reaction. He simply said, "In that case, let's go to the staff lounge next door and chat."
He then led the way.
However, as soon as they entered the lounge and he closed the door, Xize's true nature was revealed.
"What do you want to talk about? My attitude? Or are you not planning to cooperate with us anymore?" Xize said, roughly pushing Wei Yumeng against the wall.
But there was no fear in Wei Yumeng's eyes. She looked at him intently. "It seems I'm truly disliked by you. Can you tell me why?"
Xize burst into laughter as if he had heard the greatest joke. "You're asking me for a reason? Didn't your Zhan Group make a mistake first?"
This statement only further confused Wei Yumeng.
"Our company is among the world's leading enterprises. If any company wants to cooperate with us, wouldn't they send a high-level representative with strength and status? Yet, your Zhan Group sent someone as ordinary as you. Honestly, I feel a bit demeaned having to entertain you."
Xize spoke with increasing indignation. "I say, if your Zhan Group has no sincerity, then it's fine if you want to terminate the cooperation. We don't care."
Wei Yumeng let out a cold laugh upon hearing this. "Why do you think I'm just an ordinary employee of Zhan Group?"
"Do I need to feel it? Look at your attire and style; they're all from cheap brands, and even the style is outdated. You're not going to tell me this is the current popular style in your country, are you?"
Xize's gaze was filled with contempt.
Wei Yumeng hadn't expected that Xize would insult an entire country over such a trivial matter. It was truly excessive.
She could tolerate insults directed at herself, but to mock her country along with her was something she couldn't endure.
Just as Wei Yumeng was about to say something, the lounge door was knocked.
"Mr. Xize, are you in there?"
Xize shot Wei Yumeng a warning glance before opening the door.
"What is it?" His expression changed faster than flipping a book; he had returned to his usual polite demeanor.
"Mrs. Chaikovsky requests your presence."
Wei Yumeng pondered for a moment. She recalled that Mrs. Chaikovsky was one of the owners of this company and would be responsible for all company matters while her husband was on a business trip.
She had always wanted to meet this renowned strong woman, and today was a good opportunity.
Upon arriving at the office, Wei Yumeng saw a familiar figure.
Wasn't that Zhan Mohan? He had already arrived?
And seated in the center was a noblewoman, elegantly dressed yet impeccably polite. Her mere presence exuded a powerful aura.
Perhaps it was because both Zhan Mohan and Mrs. Chaikovsky, individuals with powerful auras, were present, that Wei Yumeng suddenly felt insignificant.
"You must be Mrs. Zhan? Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you." Mrs. Chaikovsky shook Wei Yumeng's hand in a friendly manner.
Wei Yumeng reciprocated her friendliness naturally. "Madam, I've heard so much about you for a long time. Meeting you today, you truly live up to your reputation."
"What? Mrs. Zhan?" Xize stared at Wei Yumeng, not yet comprehending.
Zhan Mohan walked to Wei Yumeng's side and gave Xize a warning look. "Didn't she tell you? She is my wife, Zhan Mohan, and... the legitimate owner of Zhan Group."
Xize stumbled. He had never imagined Wei Yumeng's identity to be like this.
"To be honest, when Mr. Zhan spoke of you, I wondered what kind of legendary woman you were. Now, it's truly surprising," Mrs. Chaikovsky said, affectionately taking Wei Yumeng's hand. "If you have time, could you tell me more about what happened between you? I'm very curious."
Wei Yumeng felt a little embarrassed. "Madam, you flatter me. I haven't actually done anything extraordinary."
"No, in my eyes, a wife who can manage her household and assist her husband with various matters is already a great being," Mrs. Chaikovsky sighed. "That's who I've always wanted to be."
"It's not like that. Rather, I've always admired successful women like you."
As they exchanged pleasantries, they grew more familiar with each other, while Zhan Mohan watched them with a pleasant expression.
In fact, upon hearing Wei Yumeng's account, he had guessed that there might be an issue with the person assigned to receive her. Thus, he had contacted Mrs. Chaikovsky early in the morning after arriving here.
Based on his understanding of this woman, Mrs. Chaikovsky shared some similarities in personality and temperament with Wei Yumeng. If he could act as a bridge between them, the matter would surely proceed more smoothly.
At this moment, Xize was drenched in cold sweat. He had offended someone he shouldn't have. It wouldn't be surprising if Wei Yumeng told Mrs. Chaikovsky to fire him on the spot.
As expected, Mrs. Chaikovsky soon noticed Xize, who was still present.
"By the way, Mrs. Zhan, what do you think of our employees? Has he taken good care of you these past few days?"
Upon hearing this, Xize's legs felt weak. His arrogance before was due to his significant position in the company. Getting into this company was enough to be a lifelong source of pride. However, if he were to be fired now, it would become a lifelong joke.
He dared not look Wei Yumeng in the eye, but Wei Yumeng was staring at him.
