In the office, Fade and Ernest sat opposite each other and got down to business. "Mr. Soo. what''s

With a worried face, Ernest said to him, "East Coast is themercial capital of the country. The
market is huge, so fromst year I had prepared for around six months to enter the East Coast
market."
"Before the New Year, I had a discussion with East Coast’s business tycoons, the Qin family. We
agreed to cooperate. I would pay for the funds and production products, whereas the Qin family
would be in charge of East Coast''s channel. We will establish thepany together. I hold 60%,
and they hold 40% and we''ll work together."
"Because the market of East Coast isrge and they have quite a say, I have made concessions in
the shares, giving the Qin family 40% to enter the market as soon as possible."
"Everything was nned and settled. However, when I was ready to open thepany, the Qin
family suddenly changed their mind. They asked for 70% of the shares, leaving me with only 30%."
"Of course I couldn''t agree to such a request. I wanted to talk nicely with them, even offering 50-50;
but the Qin family is rigid and not willing to give up. As a result, my newpany has been dyed
and has yet to be opened."
After hearing that, Fade could not help furrowing his brows. "This Qin family is acting too greedy.
They want 70% just like that?"
"Mr. Soo, must we cooperate with the Qin family?"
Ernest replied, "Well, I wouldn''t say that we must. It''s just that the Qin family is a local business
tycoon on here with arge market channel. If we cooperate with them, ourpany''s development
will be much easier."
"If we were to do it alone, it''s not impossible in theory; but it''s much more difficult. Plus, with the
current situation, if we don''t agree, I''m afraid that the Qin family not only won''t work with us but will
even deliberately make things harder. In that case, things will be troublesome."
After hearing that, Fade paused for a moment before asking, "Is there a girl named Evelyn in the
Qin family of East Coast? She''s about twenty."
Ernest was stunned for a moment, then immediately answered, "Indeed, there is. Evelyn is the
niece of the current head of the Qin family, Caere Qin. She is considered quite doted upon. Fade,
why did you ask?"
Fade said, "A while ago, I came in contact with her. How about this, let''s make an appointment with
the Qin family and have a good talk."
"Yes. I''ll just make an appointment for tomorrow then," Ernest said, and Fade nodded.
After making an appointment with the Qin family, Ernest was slightly relieved. He gave him a smile,
"Fade, you came all the way here, and I haven''t even officially weed you, but you''ve already
gotten busy. My apologies. Come, let''s go out and have a meal. There are some restaurants in East
Coast City that are very good."
"I will eat well today then," Fade grinned in return.
The two of them went out together. When they reached the first floor, they bumped into Anatasia
again, who was walking out.
She glowered at Fade with unfriendly eyes, sneering coldly at him. The expression on her face was
unpleasant.
He ignored her. Ernest, on the other hand, noticed this. He couldn''t help but ask, "Fade, do you
know Anatasia?"
He replied, "No. I just happened to meet her at the airport today. Mr. Soo, what''s the background of
this woman?"
Ernest exined, "Anatasia is a senior student of East Coast University''s Arts Academy. Some time
ago, she took part in a talent show and won third ce. She''s rather famous, especially here in East
Coast."
"Thus, we invited her to be our ambassador. After all, celebrities like her, who just started being
famous, are popr yet don''t cost as much. In addition, she is from around here, so people in East
Coast are more likely to have a sense of identity."
"Oh, I see." Fade nodded, not saying much. He didn''t want Ernest''s business to be affected by his
small conflict with Anatasia.
After dinner, Fade rested in the hotel for a night.
At 10 o''clock the next morning, he and Ernest came to an exquisite teahouse, prepared to meet for
their negotiation with the Qin family.
It was only 15 minutes after the fixed time that the Qin family arrived.
"Director Soo, I''m sorry. Dyed by traffic." The person leading the way was a man who looked like
he was in his forties or fifties. He wore a trim suit. It was none other than the head of the Qin family,
Dacre.
Behind him, there was a middle-aged man who looked like he was in his early forties. His
appearance was a little simr to Dacre, but hecked a bit of vigor.
At the sight of that person, Ernest was stunned. "Why is he here?"
"Who?" Fade asked.
Ernest whispered, "Dyson Qin, Dacre''s younger brother. He is the father of Evelyn, whom you
mentioned before."
Fade nodded. At that moment, another young girl walked in behind Dyson. It was none other than
Evelyn.
Seeing her, Fade''s eyes glinted briefly.
She also looked over at Fade, and their eyes met for a while. She immediately averted her gaze
and looked somewhere else, as if she did not dare to look him in the eye.
"Officer Qin!" Ernest greeted him and shook his hand. Then, he pointed to Fade and introduced,
"Officer Qin, let me introduce you. This is..."
Without waiting for Ernest''s introduction, Dyson interrupted him and said, "This is Fade Chen from
Dragonville, Mr. Chen, isn''t it? I know him. There''s no need for you to introduce him, Director Soo."
"Mr. Qin, how did you..." Ernest was a little surprised.
Dyson nced at his daughter, Evelyn, and then said, "About my daughter, to some extent, I should
thank you, Mr. Chen."
At that moment, Dacre also said with a chuckle, "If it hadn''t been for Mr. Chen''s help, I''m afraid
Evelyn wouldn''t be able to return unscathed from Twindragon Vige. Injuries or even death could
have happened. After all, even Daemyn of the Hsiang family died there."
Dyson nodded and said, "To express my gratitude towards Mr. Chen, I specially brought my
daughter along this time."
As he spoke, Dyson nced at his daughter. Evelyn stepped forward and said to Fade, "For what
happened at Twin-dragon Vige, thanks a lot."
His eyes squinted slightly as he looked at her. Thoughts were running through his head as he
pondered over their intentions.
After Evelyn thanked him unwillingly, Dyson took out a bank card from his pocket and threw it in
front of Fade. With a smile, he said, "There''s one hundred thousand yuan in this bank card, to
express the Qin family''s gratitude."
If Fade couldn''t grasp what the Qin family were doing earlier, he immediately understood after
Dyson had made such a move.
It seemed that the Qin family had known in advance that Ernest had asked him to help out. They
were worried that he would use the matter of him saving Evelyn to force the negotiation, so they
simply took the first move by making such a thank-you show.
