The Pursuit of Love After Divorcing My Cold Omega - Chapter 35

“Sorry senior, I already have a girlfriend.”

The arrival of the investment fair made everyone at Zhaoming Biotech, including Yu Kunian, exceptionally busy; no one dared to be slack. The delivery of the finished products and the related production data had to be handled with meticulous care. For Zhaoming Biotech, as the technical party, their CPP technology was something they could certainly hold their own with, but whether it could become the company’s second great opportunity for prosperity remained uncertain.

Currently, due to safety monitoring requirements, CPP remained in a reserved status and could only be used for artistic products. Yu Kunian’s partner was a famous foreign luxury watch manufacturer. Zhaoming Biotech’s goal was simple: they wanted to pivot from a company specializing in pharmaceutical agents to the high-end luxury goods industry.

With such a massive leap in industries, the risk was naturally enormous. Even though the partnering watch enterprise already possessed a mature and stable customer base, the style Yu Kunian provided would clearly differ from the norm. Even Yu Kunian herself could not fully guarantee that the return on investment after the new product hit the market would cover the initial capital.

But Yu Kunian excelled at gambling on uncertainties.

She had always fought for opportunities that others didn’t dare take, and she never feared unpredictable variables; these were facts well-known to everyone in the Lihua City business circle.

If it hadn’t been for that initial gamble on a new policy, the “President Yu” of today would not exist.

Of course, many people claimed that Yu Kunian had only had the courage to throw everything on the line back then because Yu Dai and Yang Jin had secretly leaked information from the Committee. However, the various bosses of Lihua City enterprises knew full well that if such a thing had actually happened, Zhaoming Biotech would have been shut down by the Committee long ago.

No one could be a “second Yu Kunian,” because no one else had the guts to gamble so unreservedly on an opportunity so distant that its end could not be seen.

Everyone in Lihua City admired Yu Kunian and thought she was formidable, but there were also many who were envious, all of them hoping to see her fall from her high pedestal, plummeting until she became a dejected failure.

Opportunities often coexist with risks. There were also those standing on the sidelines waiting to mock her or kick her while she was down, but Yu Kunian ignored them all; she only wanted to win.

Regarding the data submitted by the project team, Yu Kunian not only memorized everything by heart but also made a special trip to inspect the finished products, conducting repeated tests and research until no more problems occurred. Only then could the Alpha guarantee that the investment fair would not run into major trouble.

Yu Kunian was so busy every day that her feet barely touched the ground; she even spent a few nights pulling all-nighters at the office. However, amidst her busy schedule, she still made it an unshakable rule to call Song Wenzhi. Song Wenzhi understood her and did not disturb her excessively, but it was Yu Kunian who took every spare moment to contact or meet with her.

Every time, the exhaustion in the Alpha’s eyes was exceptionally clear. She even showed slight signs of haggardness, which inevitably made Song Wenzhi feel heartache. She wanted to offer more words of advice, but her mouth closed again when she saw Yu Kunian’s face as she unintentionally drifted off to sleep.

The Alpha was always relaxed when she saw Song Wenzhi, as if the Omega was the only joy capable of easing her weariness.

When the investment fair finally arrived, Yu Kunian’s nerves were stretched to the limit that day; she would not allow herself to make a single mistake in any of the procedures. Regarding the new product, she was more familiar with it than anyone. Before going on stage, she looked at the “speech” suggestions Song Wenzhi had given her, and the Alpha’s heart couldn’t help but feel a few degrees steadier.

Yu Kunian sent a message to Song Wenzhi, who replied quickly, and a moment later, called her via video. The Alpha connected, and on the phone screen was Song Wenzhi’s familiar face. The Omega curled her lips into a light smile and asked, “Yu Kunian, are you nervous?”

Seeing her made Yu Kunian relax a great deal. “A little bit.”

“You can do it, Yu Kunian.” Song Wenzhi thought for a long time and could only offer this encouragement. Since the Alpha was already so well-prepared, there was no need to repeat precautions or offer other comforts; Yu Kunian only needed affirmation, and that was enough. “My class ends early today. I’ll go find you later.”

Yu Kunian started to laugh. “Okay. Remember to call me in advance; I don’t want you waiting long.”

Song Wenzhi nodded and glanced at the time. “I know. You should go now.”

Yu Kunian gave an affirmative sound before hanging up. Among the representatives at the investment fair today, there was no shortage of people with status and reputation in Lihua City. Although she hadn’t met some in person, she had heard of them. Any one of them could potentially become her investor, and the Alpha treated this with extreme importance.

Fortunately, the investment fair passed without any major incidents. Yu Kunian analyzed her product very clearly, and her on-the-spot reactions and confidence caused the vast majority of bosses to be involuntarily convinced. Even if someone intentionally made things difficult, they were skillfully handled by Yu Kunian, making the nearly three-hour investment fair a success.

But the end of the fair was when the true opportunity began.

Yu Kunian moved to a pre-booked private restaurant room with several investors who showed interest to carry out more detailed investment discussions. This meal was clearly not just for eating; it was more about “buying and selling” amidst the clinking of glasses, analyzing her new product with these industry leaders.

Regarding the so-called “project profit margin” questions, Yu Kunian answered fluently. The guarantees she made were well-founded, and she also spoke of her confidence in entering the luxury watch industry. The Alpha informed everyone that her new product would have no chance of losing money, analyzing the profits from various aspects to persuade the investors.

This kind of sales-like conversation with everyone in the private room was not foreign to Yu Kunian, but she still could not adapt to it; she still felt tired deep in her heart. However, the Alpha never showed it on her face. No matter when, she had to maintain a smile and then probe whether the other party’s investment intention was sufficient.

There were many seniors in the room, and Yu Kunian remained respectful throughout. However, there was one peer who, under the guise of investing, was undermining Yu Kunian in the room. Regarding the previous power outage in the Zhaoming Biotech laboratory, the other party accused Yu Kunian’s preventative work of being inadequate.

Yu Kunian did not respond to the accusation but merely looked at the person twice, the emotions in her eyes shifting unpredictably, before saying unhurriedly that the accidental power outage had caused no loss. Furthermore, their products had undergone upgrades long ago; even if there was a temporary power cut, no problems would occur.

After explaining, she unceremoniously had the person escorted out.

As the dinner reached its conclusion, Yu Kunian was relieved that Zhaoming Biotech’s recent hard work had not been in vain. The atmosphere in the private room was indeed no longer so tense. A certain Alpha senior looked at her and asked if she had any intention of entering an arranged marriage.

Just as the other party finished speaking, the notification sound on Yu Kunian’s phone rang simultaneously.

The screen lit up; it was Song Wenzhi.

Yu Kunian gave a light laugh, and her previously stern expression vanished instantly, replaced by a touch of softness.

The Alpha picked up her phone and gave it a slight wave, saying: “Sorry senior, I already have a girlfriend.”
