The Invincible Son-in-law

Since Chairman Guo also agreed to void the previous agreement, Lin Hao naturally had no need to entangle with them further.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Hao instructed someone to bring the original copies of the previous strategic cooperation framework agreement and the investment agreement. At the same time, Du Yumeng also had her team present their original agreements.

Looking at the four originals in front of him, Lin Hao checked each one thoroughly, then turned to Du Yumeng and said, "President Du, is this agreement nullified?"

"Yes," Du Yumeng smiled.

Zhi Xing Group's willingness to invest in Wucheng County already shows great respect for the county's party committee and government. Wanting to negotiate conditions with us, I really don't understand what the county leadership is thinking.

This was exactly what Du Yumeng had told Chairman Guo and it was her confidence booster that earned her the right to negotiate with the National Development and Reform Commission.

Rip...

Lin Hao slowly stacked the four agreements together, then tore them into pieces fiercely.

With the four original agreements shredded, the agreements between their county committee and Zhi Xing Group were completely nullified.

To be honest, even the local enterprises in Wucheng County don't have enough shares in the new energy project, so giving one out to Zhi Xing Group was already considering the face of Li Jingyi towards Yu Peishan.

No one expected that people would still jump around at the National Development and Reform Commission, which undoubtedly infuriated Lin Hao completely.

Everyone watched him tear the agreements over and over again, each time with a powerful force, accompanied by an almost imperceptible anger, and they sensed something ominous in their hearts.

Bang!

Lin Hao took out a lighter, set the agreement on fire, and drew out a cigarette, lighting it with the burning agreement, taking a hard drag.

"Director Lin, we've compiled a new agreement for you to review. If it looks good, we can sign the agreement anew today," Du Yumeng presented a brand new agreement.

"Sign anew? When did I agree to re-sign with you?" Lin Hao sneered, exhaling a puff of thick smoke.

"Director Lin, what do you mean by this?" Du Yumeng's face slightly darkened.

"President Du, our county leaders only agreed to void the previous agreement, but there was no agreement to re-sign anything," Lin Hao said flatly.

"How can you go back on your word and break promises?" Du Yumeng questioned coldly.

"Heh heh heh...we're the ones going back on our word? President Du, you were the ones who requested the tearing of the agreement, not us. Even if someone is going back on their word or breaking promises, it's your Zhi Xing Group, isn't it?" Lin Hao sneered. Your support on M|V|L8EMPYR keeps this series going.

At this moment, Du Yumeng realized she had fallen into Lin Hao's trap, because once the agreement was torn, there were no ties between the parties, and indeed, they never agreed to re-signing. All along, it was just she, herself saying it.

"Director Lin, the voiding of that agreement was something both parties agreed upon. We did fail to consider some aspects. Why don't we follow the previous agreement?" Du Yumeng had to lower her stance.

If this project failed, she'd have a hard time explaining it to Chairman Guo.

The other members of the National Development and Reform Commission finally understood that Lin Hao had used a ruse to trap Zhi Xing Group, and they secretly laughed with glee.

To be honest, with Lin Hao's temper, he would have severely reprimanded this woman who doesn't know her limits and mercilessly mocked her to relieve his pent-up frustration.

But then again, he was the director of a county's National Development and Reform Commission, representing a tier of government, so he couldn't act recklessly.

Thus, he suppressed his anger, maintaining a modicum of poise.

"President Du, because the agreement is void, your new energy battery project has naturally been reclaimed by our county committee. You may leave now!" Lin Hao rose slowly, speaking calmly.

What? Leave?

Du Yumeng was thoroughly flustered and said coldly, "Wasn't the new energy battery project allocated to us? Director Lin, I'm afraid you don't have the authority to reclaim that project, do you?"

"President Du, have you not read the agreement? The new energy battery project is included in the agreement. Now that the agreement is void, of course, you have nothing," Lin Hao stated earnestly.

Du Yumeng was completely dumbfounded!

Lin Hao walked out slowly, glanced back at her, and jokingly said, "You're so young, why be a vice president? Isn't it better to be a mistress?"

A blatant ridicule! A blatant slap in the face!

Du Yumeng's scar was exposed, her pretty face flushed with shame and anger; she wished she could dig a hole and hide.

Yu Peishan remained silent throughout because Lin Hao had already avenged her.

"President Yu, you're responsible for this project, you settle it," Du Yumeng looked at Yu Peishan and shouted.

"President Du, it's all up to you here. Now that the agreement is gone, there's nothing I can do!" Yu Peishan replied calmly.

After Lin Hao left, the members of the National Development and Reform Commission laughed heartily as they departed, leaving only the people from Zhi Xing Group in the meeting room.

Everyone was stunned, looking at Du Yumeng, also bewildered.

They originally thought they could pressure Wucheng County into amending the agreement, but it turned out that they didn't fall for it at all.

Soon, this matter was reported to Chairman Guo. Upon learning about this, Chairman Guo couldn't sit still either.

He immediately called Lin Hao but was met with a busy signal, clearly indicating that he didn't want to bother with him.

Chairman Guo then realized he had been completely ruined by this mistress.

To retrieve this project, Chairman Guo immediately traveled from Wuning City to Wucheng County, hoping to have a private talk with Lin Hao and see if the issue could be salvaged.

Of course, Chairman Guo knew full well that Yu Peishan was the link in this matter, so the root of everything still lay on her.

In a teahouse outside the county committee office, Du Yumeng and her team waited for their chairman.

Soon, Chairman Guo arrived with his entourage.

"Chairman..." everyone stood up to greet him.

"Alright, let's all sit. President Du, explain the current situation. How did it turn out like this?" Chairman Guo asked Du Yumeng.

"Chairman, this Lin Director from the National Development and Reform Commission is too despicable. He clearly agreed to re-sign after voiding the old agreement, and now he goes back on his word," Du Yumeng complained first.

Chairman Guo naturally knew about the voiding of the old agreement and frowned, saying, "Didn't you discuss the new agreement before voiding the old one?"

"I thought we would discuss the new agreement after voiding the old one. Who knew..." Du Yumeng said with a bitter face.

Chairman Guo's expression turned very unpleasant; he knew this woman had lost the project, and he really wanted to slap her.

"Don't give excuses in front of me. You said you could handle this, but now the situation is like this. Shifting the blame is pointless. You shouldn't be a vice president anymore; just be a secretary."

But Chairman Guo couldn't bear to fire this young and beautiful woman.
