The little rose is so sweet and alluring, even the aloof CEO can't resist!

Excited to receive the company's affirmative reply, Le Peier immediately rummaged through her belongings to find the certificate and took a picture to show Lin Yi.

Lin Yi replied after reading it: 【I'll come pick you up now, and then we'll go to the company together.】

Upon arriving at the company, Le Peier met directly with General Manager Li.

Mr. Li was stunned when he saw the diamond necklace she brought, and blurted out in disbelief, "The summit of the iceberg?"

Le Pei'er smiled smugly and said, "President Li also knows about the summit of the iceberg."

"The Summit of the Iceberg" is a diamond that was mined in South Africa a century ago. Because of its rare purity of 99.99%, it emits a cold luster, much like the appearance of a snow-capped mountain, hence the name "The Summit of the Iceberg".

Together with the world-famous "Heart of the Ocean," it was known as one of the "Two Kings of Diamonds," and was originally owned by the royal families of F and Y countries, respectively.

Later, due to war, they would disappear from time to time, and their value would double every time they reappeared.

Two years ago, it appeared at a French auction and was widely publicized by major media outlets. It was said to have been bought by a Chinese person of unknown nationality, and then there was no news of it since.

Unexpectedly, it was in Le Pei'er's hands, and he actually had the chance to witness it~

Unfortunately, the platinum necklace that strung it together broke.

However, the platinum necklace itself is not valuable, so it does not affect the value of the diamond.

Mr. Li carefully examined the diamond in front of him and replied, "My wife is interested in diamonds. She told me about it. She originally wanted to go to France to see this diamond that year, but unfortunately her father was sick and hospitalized, so she couldn't go. She has always regretted it."

Le Pei'er let him look at it for a while, then stepped forward to take the diamond back, closed the box, and said, "Mr. Li, I'm sorry, I have to put it away now. After all, it has developed a flaw, and I need to take good care of it now."

Mr. Li: "I understand, but how did you get this diamond? Are you the one who won the bid?"

Le Pei-er: "No, it was an uncle of mine who took a picture of it and gave it to me."

Uncle gave you diamonds? And such high-end diamonds at that?

There was an ambiguous undertone to his words. Mr. Li gave her a meaningful look and smiled, "Who is your uncle? Maybe I know him too."

Le Pei'er smiled awkwardly and said, "President Li, this... is my own business, and it's not convenient to disclose it."

Mr. Li: "I didn't mean anything by it. I just meant that your uncle is really generous to you."

He then changed the subject, saying, "However, I heard from Lin Yi that your necklace was damaged by a stylist who is President Yan's girlfriend. Are you sure President Yan will take on the compensation for his girlfriend's sake?"

Le Pei'er pursed her lips and said, "That President Yan is so wealthy, he definitely won't care about tens of millions. Besides, he and his girlfriend just got together. If he stands idly by in this matter, their relationship will probably be affected."

Ideally, they would actually be affected and break up, which would be what she would be more happy to see. That woman Liang Liangwei is arrogant and domineering; she is not worthy of Yan Zhixu at all!

Mr. Li narrowed his eyes. He had seen countless people and sensed something fishy from Le Peier's reaction.

But he was also cunning; upon closer examination of the deeper meaning, he couldn't help but ponder.

"Okay, I understand. But President Yan is no ordinary person, so I still have to go there in person."

Le Pei'er's eyes lit up as she asked, "Can I go with President Li?"

~

After noon, when it was time to start work, Yan Zhixu walked out of the break room.

He had just closed his eyes to rest for half an hour, and the fatigue from his busy morning had dissipated considerably. He was full of energy now.

He had just washed his face, and his handsome face still had a trace of moisture on it. His expression was cool yet gentle.

He sat down and looked at the documents for a while when the intercom beeped. He reached out and pressed the button: "Speak."

Xu Chaofeng: "President Yan, President Li from Huayu Entertainment is here. He hopes to meet with President Yan."

Yan Zhixu frowned: "Huayu Entertainment? Which company?"

Xu Chaofeng: "One of the three major entertainment companies in China, ranking third in size, it is a subsidiary of Lepeier."

Yan Zhixu's eyes darkened slightly: "Reply that my schedule is full."

Xu Chaofeng: "President Yan said that Miss Le brought diamonds and an auction certificate. If we can't meet in person, we'll have to resort to legal means..."

Yan Zhixu's face darkened completely: "Threatening me? Get out!"

Xu Chaofeng: "Okay, Yan—"

Yan Zhixu's eyes flickered slightly, and then he suddenly changed his mind: "Wait a minute."

Xu Chaofeng waited silently.

After a moment of contemplation, Yan Zhixu said, "Have someone bring it up. You can serve them tea. I'll come over in half an hour."

Xu Chaofeng: "Okay, President Yan."

After hanging up the internal line, Yan Zhixu remained calm and continued reading and processing documents.

Even when subordinates knocked on the door to ask for signatures, he remained calm and composed.

About half an hour later, he put the pen cap back on, got up, walked to the coat rack, took off his suit jacket, and slowly put it on.

Then he walked out of the office.

Upon seeing him, Xu Chaofeng immediately followed: "President Yan, the person has been waiting in the reception room for half an hour."

Yan Zhixu nodded slightly, walked towards the reception room, and pushed the door open to enter.

The people inside looked over, and when they saw it was him, their eyes lit up. They all stood up and treated him with respect and courtesy.

Mr. Li hurriedly stepped forward and extended his hand: "Mr. Yan, it's an honor to meet you."

Yan Zhixu reached out and shook his hand briefly before withdrawing it, her expression indifferent: "Nice to meet you."

Mr. Li didn't seem to mind his coldness at all, and still smiled as he said, "I apologize for disturbing you. Please allow me to introduce myself. I am Li Zaishen from Huayu Entertainment. I have long admired Mr. Yan's reputation and have wanted to pay him a visit, but I haven't had the chance until today..."

Yan Zhixu gestured for him to sit down, and then sat down in the main seat himself.

He never looked at or paid any attention to Le Pei'er on the other side.

Le Pei'er looked at him with admiration in her eyes.

This man is truly amazing and outstanding.

Every time she sees him, she wants him to be her man!

Even if he's a little cold, what does it matter? She's seen how gentle he is with his girlfriends. If she could become his woman, wouldn't he be just as gentle with her?

So she stepped forward and said in a sweet voice, "President Yan, we meet again~"

Yan Zhixu then glanced at her indifferently: "Who are you?"

Le Peier's expression changed slightly, and her fingers curled up: "I am Le Peier, a spokesperson for Bosch... a former spokesperson, and I have met President Yan several times."

Yan Zhixu: "Oh, sorry, I always forget people I don't know well."

Le Pei'er: "..."

Seeing that he was a little embarrassed, Mr. Li laughed it off and said, "It seems that we haven't done enough to promote Pei'er, so President Yan didn't remember her. We will definitely increase our efforts to promote her when we get back."

Yan Zhixu: "What does it have to do with me that you guys are promoting her?"

Mr. Li choked for a moment, then quickly said, "Yes, yes, Mr. Yan is very busy and doesn't have the time or energy to pay attention to the entertainment industry. I understand."
