Chapter 330: Chapter 330: Aim to Please
Three black-clad Westerners appeared so abruptly that everyone was taken aback.
"Excuse me, are you also from the National Institutes of Health?" an organizer stepped forward to ask.
"National Institutes of Health?" A look of disdain emerged on the face of the man in the middle, "How could we possibly be from such a fame-seeking organization?"
The organizer was flabbergasted, were these three here to cause trouble?
"Mr. Milxi, who are these three?" Li Shanghui was stunned, "Should we have them removed? They donāt come with good intentions!"
"Have them removed?" Milxi said with a bitter smile, "We should be grateful if they donāt have us removed instead. I really donāt understand why these fellows have also come to Huaxia. Letās just hope theyāre not here for that document; otherwise, weāre in for a headache!"
The man in the middle ignored the organizer and looked around, seeing the crowd was far too large, he made his way directly to the reception desk.
"Hello, everyone! Iām the head of Micro Dust Research Institute, my name is Mokara, and now Iād like to ask, who among you here is Miss Yun Hanrui, the president of Chaoyang Group?" Mokara said earnestly.
"Oh no, this is bad!" Milxi exclaimed, covering his head, "This has just made things complicated. Itās not easy trying to take something from the jaws of Micro Dust Research Institute!"
Micro Dust Research Institute? The name sounded extremely unfamiliar to most ears!
Except for a few who were more knowledgeable and had a vague impression of it, everyone else was completely clueless, including the protagonist they were referring to, Yun Hanrui.
Mokara furrowed his brows, "Miss Yun Hanrui isnāt here?"
At that moment, Yun Hanrui snapped back to reality and came forward to the front desk, "I am Yun Hanrui. May I know why you are looking for me?"
Mokara examined Yun Hanrui from head to toe and asked seriously, "Are you really the president of Chaoyang Biotech Group, Yun Hanrui?"
"The genuine article!" Yun Hanrui frowned, "State your purpose. I believe we havenāt met before!"
Mokara pulled out his phone, compared the image on it with her face, and sighed with relief, "Itās definitely you!"
Seeing Yun Hanruiās puzzled look, Mokara explained, "I apologize, I have a bit of face blindness towards Eastern women. To me, you all look almost the same, so... forgive my earlier offense!"
"Haha, Mr. Mokara, I didnāt expect you to come to Huaxia!" Before Yun Hanrui could say anything, Milxiās voice carried over from afar.
Mokara turned to look at Milxi and frowned, "Who are you? Do you know me?"
Milxi almost choked, I mean, he was, after all, a mid-level leader at the National Institutes of Health, isnāt this too disrespectful?
But Milxi was also well aware that it did not matter that he was just a mid-level leader; even the director of the institute wouldnāt dare to be too presumptuous in front of Mokara!
"I am the head of NIHās operations in Huaxia, my name is Milxi!" Milxi bowed slightly and said, "Our institute is currently selecting partners for collaboration, and Miss Yunās Chaoyang Group has already been chosen as our partner!"
As soon as he said this, the crowd erupted into murmurs! How could Chaoyang Group have passed without even submitting a research project?
The most shocked of all was Yang Rui! Just a moment ago, he was mocking Yun Hanrui with such arrogance, but to his surprise, in the blink of an eye, Milxi had decided to make Chaoyang Group the partner!
The words he had just said were still echoing in his ears; Yang Rui felt as if countless slaps were continuously striking his cheeks, and the gazes from those around him were like sharp swords piercing into his heart.
"There must be some shady dealings!" Yang Rui was so angry he was almost going insane!
"Oh? Chaoyang Group is your partner?" Mokara was somewhat surprised. "Miss Yun, is this true?"
Yun Hanrui was also somewhat puzzled, but she keenly noticed that ever since this person from the Micro Dust Research Institute appeared, Milxiās attitude seemed to change very quickly!
"Mr. Milxi!" At this point, Yang Rui came over and said, "The Chaoyang Group clearly did not submit a partnership project, so how could they obtain a partnership slot? I donāt think this is fair to everyone present, is it?"
Milxiās face darkened. Was Yang Ruiās brain kicked by a donkey? How dare he mess up his good deal at this time!
"Actually, we had already negotiated this matter a week ago!" Milxi said indifferently, "Our institute has great confidence in the capabilities of Chaoyang Group, so..."
Yang Ruiās eyes were red as he looked at Yun Hanrui, "How is this possible, how could this be!"
Although Yun Hanrui was still not quite sure what was happening, it didnāt stop her from striking back at Yang Rui, "Young Master Yang, it looks like youāve lost to me again. I wonder if you will continue to be grounded when you go back?"
"You... you bitch!" Yang Rui couldnāt accept it; he was clearly the winner, so why had the situation abruptly changed, with the original loser now becoming the darling?
Yun Hanruiās expression darkened; she knew Yang Rui wasnāt very sophisticated, but she didnāt expect him to swear in public!
"Milxi, this is also your partner?" Mokara frowned. "To swear at such a beautiful lady, Iām really concerned about the quality of your partners!"
Milxiās face also looked unpleasant. He glared at Yang Rui with resentment and said coldly, "Mr. Yang, Iām sorry, but our partnership ends here. Our institute will not cooperate with companies that have such low standards. This does not align with our instituteās principles!"
Yang Rui was stunned. What was happening? He had merely enjoyed a moment of spite, so how did it suddenly lead to a termination of the partnership?
"Mr. Milxi, what did you just say?" Yang Rui asked with a pale face, his lips trembling.
Milxi frowned. "I made myself very clear. Our institute does not wish to cooperate with companies of low standard! As a representative of your company, you lack any gentlemanly spirit. The conversation we had about cooperating is over!"
Yang Rui went mad, "You canāt do this, Mr. Milxi, you canāt unilaterally tear up our contract! This is unethical, this is illegal!"
Milxi frowned again. This idiot is actually threatening me now?
"Iām sorry, but we had only verbally agreed with you and had not signed any valid contract!" Milxi said coldly. "If you feel this is unfair, I can have the evaluation committee issue you a report detailing the inadequacy of your project, how does that sound?"
Yang Rui was completely dumbfounded. Milxiās approach was entirely biased towards Yun Hanrui. What on earth was going on?
Yang Rui didnāt know, but one thing he was sure of was that his return this time would probably be more serious than just being grounded!
