Zhou Lin’s expression darkened, “You like all these projects?”
Su Ting affirmed, “Yes, President Zhou, are you willing to cooperate?”
Zhou Lin stared at Su Ting without speaking.
Yang Gao watched Zhou Lin’s gloomy gaze and internally worried for Su Ting.
However, Su Ting appeared completely unruffled, his gaze lightly resting on the projects as he nodded in satisfaction and urged, “President Zhou?”
Zhou Lin took a deep breath, suppressing the anger within him, and smiled, “Willing, of course, willing. President Su, I look forward to our pleasant cooperation.”
Su Ting smiled back, “Pleasant cooperation indeed.”
He immediately added, “President Zhou, I don’t have much tnext. Let’s sign the contracts for these projects now.”

Su Ting responded, “Not in a hurry. For such good projects, I can wait a while.”
Zhou Lin sought to delay further, his mind racing for ways to put off Su Ting.
Su Ting directly challenged, “Does President Zhou not wish to cooperate on these projects? If that’s the case, then…”
Zhou Lin hastily said, “Cooperate, of course, we’ll cooperate. I’ll have the lawyers draft the contracts right now.”
He secretly planned to manipulate the contracts.
Su Ting, seeing through Zhou Lin’s intentions, remarked, “I’ll have my lawyers review the contract. If there’s no issue, we’ll sign.”
Zhou Lin asked angrily, “Don’t you trust me?”
Su Ting replied with a light laugh, “It’s my habit.”
Zhou Lin protested again, “Your actions makefeel distrusted and doubted.”
Su Ting emphasized, “It’s my habit. I believe President Zhou would respect it. If not, we can call off our cooperation. As for what might leak online later…”
Zhou Lin forced a smile, “Of course, I respect President Su’s habits. The lawyers can review it as they please.”
He had previously used this questioning tone with other company heads, who would drop their demands for a lawyer’s review to save face, benefiting him significantly.
Unexpectedly, Su Ting was not so easily fooled.
Zhou Lin now hoped his lawyer could hide the traps more subtly to prevent Su Ting’s lawyers from finding them.
However, Zhou Lin’s calculations were ultimately flawed.
The lawyer quietly informed Su Ting of the issues found.
Su Ting nodded, then turned to Zhou Lin, “President Zhou, it seems you weren’t very sincere about this project…”
Zhou Lin interrupted before Su Ting could finish, “It was a mistake by the lawyer. I’ll have it corrected right now.”
Su Ting remarked coolly, “There are dozens of issues with the contract. Seems like a lot of mistakes for a lawyer.”

Zhou Lin’s expression soured, but he forced a smile, “I’ll discipline him.”
Su Ting watched Zhou Lin until he slumped into his chair, unable to maintain his composure, before withdrawing his gaze and saying lightly, “That’s good.”
After another review by the lawyer confirming there were no issues, Su Ting nodded and signed his name, leaving with a final “Pleasant cooperation” before turning to leave.
Once Su Ting and his team had disappeared, Zhou Lin threw the freshly signed contract at the lawyer, “See if there are any loopholes that Su Ting’s people didn’t catch.”
The lawyer, without even needing to open the contract, turned pale and began to tremble, stuttering, “Pres-President Zhou, the traps I set were all discovered and corrected.”
Zhou Lin glared at the lawyer with reddened eyes, demanding, “What did you say?”
The lawyer hung his head, unable to utter another word.
Zhou Lin, enraged, threw a book at the lawyer from the desk, “You’re useless! I pay you so much to set traps in the contract, and they’re all found? Get your things and leave now; I don’t want to see you!”
The lawyer was stunned, “What do you mean?”
Zhou Lin gritted his teeth, “I mean you’re fired!”
After leaving Zhou Corporation, Yang Gao couldn’t help but express his anger to Su Ting, “President Su, President Zhou clearly intended for his lawyer to set traps for you.”
Su Ting nodded, acknowledging he was aware, then picked up his phone and dialed, laughing, “Daidai, I’ve secured five projects..”
