"You dare to hit me?"
The woman shrieked, covering her face, and stumbled back several steps.
"It's you?"
Just then, Wu Meng finally saw the other person's face clearly and couldn't help but gasp.
Hearing the exclamation, the woman also looked up blankly. Upon seeing Wu Meng, her expression immediately soured.
"Hmph, I didn't expect it to be you, you little slut. How dare you still be alive?"
As soon as she spoke, Wu Meng's face turned pale with anger.
This woman's name was Gu Yanli, and they were rivals in the foreign trade business.
A year ago, Gu Yanli somehow hooked up with a big shot in the industry and her strength surged.
She then launched a relentless attack on Wu Meng, causing her meticulously built foreign trade business to shrink by more than half.
Wu Meng's return to the country this time was even related to this matter.
"Of course I'll live well. Only you, a shameless bitch who climbed your way up by selling your body, deserve to die."
Upon seeing it was her, Wu Meng completely lost her composure. Usually not one to argue, she was now resorting to curses.
Song Qiao, standing nearby, couldn't help but be shocked.
She never knew Wu Meng had such a fiery side.
"Hmph, if you're useless, don't make so many excuses."
"You just bumped into me, quickly get on your knees and kowtow an apology, or I'll make sure you can't do business in this country."
Gu Yanli spoke arrogantly, her posture as haughty as if she were the provincial governor.
"You..."
As Wu Meng was about to retort, a man suddenly appeared beside Gu Yanli and pulled her into his arms.
"What's wrong, Yanli? Who dared to offend you? Tell me, I'll make them apologize to you."
As he spoke, he looked up and sized up Wu Meng.
He was instantly stunned.
He never expected the woman in front of him to be so beautiful, her near-perfect figure making him swallow involuntarily.
A trace of greed flashed undisguised in his eyes.
While Gu Yanli was reasonably attractive, compared to Wu Meng, she was simply trash.
Song Qiao, watching from the side, couldn't help but frown.
She wished she could rush forward and gouge out his lecherous eyes.
Upon seeing this man, Wu Meng's face also turned pale.
She had seen photos of this man before. He was the first foreign trade merchant she wanted to cooperate with after returning to the country, named Peng Hui.
His foreign trade strength was among the best in China. She never expected him to be enticed by Gu Yanli to her side now.
A sense of foreboding rose in her heart.
With Gu Yanli stirring up trouble, this cooperation would likely not go as smoothly as before.
After a long pause, she finally took a deep breath.
"President Peng, I didn't expect it to be you. I'm Wu Meng. We spoke on the phone before."
"Oh? So it's you."
A flicker of excitement crossed Peng Hui's eyes, and a malicious smile appeared on his face.
This lecher, who could never resist a beautiful woman, was precisely wondering how to seduce Wu Meng.
He never imagined that Wu Meng would actually come to him for help.
This would make things much easier.
Suppressing his inner excitement, and completely disregarding Gu Yanli's displeased expression, he sanctimoniously extended his right hand.
"So it's Miss Wu. Pleased to meet you, pleased to meet you."
Wu Meng dared not delay and quickly reached out to shake Peng Hui's hand.
Peng Hui grasped Wu Meng's cool, slender hand, a lewd smile on his face.
"Since Miss Wu has offended Yanli, there's no need for an apology."
"As long as you crawl into my bed today and serve me well, I can give you that big foreign trade deal."
"You should learn from Yanli in this regard."
He said this while shamelessly glancing at Gu Yanli.
Wu Meng instantly retracted her right hand as if she had been electrocuted and took several steps back, creating distance between herself and Peng Hui.
Seeing this, the latter's face immediately fell.
"What? Miss Wu is unwilling?"
Compared to his earlier sanctimonious demeanor, he now seemed like a completely different person.
"Then obediently kneel down and apologize to Yanli."
Wu Meng looked at his unreasonable and overbearing behavior, her eyes welling up with tears.
"President Gu, it was Gu Yanli who bumped into me first. I haven't said anything, and she's already hitting me. Now she's asking me to apologize. Is this any kind of fairness?"
The more she spoke, the more wronged she felt, until her voice was laced with a sob.
"Hmph, who told you not to dodge earlier? Doesn't a piece of trash like you deserve to be hit?"
Gu Yanli snorted coldly and questioned Wu Meng arrogantly.
"Exactly. I don't care how this happened. Hurry up and apologize to Yanli, or serve me tonight."
Peng Hui chimed in from the side, his lewd gaze carrying a hint of ferocity.
"You, you're shameless."
Wu Meng was so enraged that she trembled all over, unable to speak for a moment.
No matter what, she would never sell her body for something like this!
"I am shameless, so what can you do about it?"
"Let me tell you, I'm here in Yang City to attend President Li Bingqing's banquet."
"If you don't serve me well, I'll make all the foreign trade merchants cut off cooperation with you."
"At that time, I advise Miss Wu to consider changing industries."
Peng Hui's triumphant expression clearly showed he believed he had Wu Meng cornered.
As soon as he spoke, Wu Meng's face turned even paler.
A flicker of despair flashed in her eyes.
As someone in the industry, she naturally knew what it meant if Peng Hui did this.
Without business partners, her foreign trade business would collapse completely.
However, she gritted her teeth and refused, "I will absolutely not agree. President Peng, you've gone too far."
"Then you can wait to go out of business."
As soon as Peng Hui finished speaking, Song Qiao, who had appeared beside him from somewhere, suddenly slapped him across the face.
She sent him flying backward, and he fell to the ground like a pile of mud.
"You scoundrel, why don't you have your mother crawl into your bed and serve you well."
