When he arrived at the door of the apartment, Fade's phone rang. When he saw the caller ID, he was a little surprised.

Then, he picked up the phone, "Liza, where did you find the time to call me?"

The caller was none other than the Micovia food reporter, Liza, whom he had known for a long time. When he was in Bay City and Jade City, as a gourmet, she had helped him several times. After that, she went to Jopeno. After that, there was no news from her for a few months.

He didn't expect her to suddenly show up, which surprised him a little.

Liza, who was active as usual on the other end of the phone said, "Why, Fade? Are you not happy about my call?"

"Not at all? Liza, the great gourmet, is calling me. It's my honor!" He said with a smile.

"That's good." She laughed and then said, "Fade, I'm coming to Capital City tomorrow. I heard that you're there. Do you have the time to meet with me?" "You're coming to Capital City?" He was a little surprised, but he did not ask for her reason and said, "Of course I'm free. What time will you arrive? I'll pick you up."

She said, "Four o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow.

I will be waiting for you!"

"No worries, I'll be there on time. I will definitely bring you to taste the delicious food in Capital City and make you full," he said.

"I'll be looking forward to my arrival tomorrow then!" Liza smiled and said, "Fade, thank you."

After hanging up the phone, he confirmed the time with Lily. The meeting with Ding family was at twelve o'clock noon, so it didn't conflict with Liza's arrival.

The next morning, when Fade arrived at the company, Lily was already there. She had a pile of information in her hands. She looked like she had spent a long time preparing.

"Thank you for your hard work," he said.

She shook her head and said, "Not at all. This time, I have made an appointment with Hensley mainly to talk and see if there's any chance for reconciliation."

"Maybe." Fade did not have too much faith in reconciliation, but he did not say anything.

She immediately took out a document and handed it to him, saying, "These are the benefits I proposed to them. The initiative is in the hands of the Ding family. If we want them to cooperate, I'm afraid that we'll have to make some concessions."

"Look at these concessions. Tell me if it is inappropriate or out of your expectations, and I'll reconsider them."

He took a look. The entire page was filled with data, giving him a headache. He immediately handed the document to her and said, "Lily, you're a professional in this aspect. You'll be fully in charge of it. I trust you."

"Alright." She nodded, looked at the time, and said, "It's almost time. Let's go earlier."

Then, they drove to the hotel.

They arrived ahead of schedule and waited in the hotel for more than half an hour. It was fifteen minutes past the appointed twelve o'clock, but still, no one from the Ding family appeared.

Fade could not help frowning and said, "The Ding family is playing with us!"

Lily tugged at his sleeve and said, "Wait a little longer. Maybe they did it on purpose."

He sat down silently and waited for another fifteen minutes. It was already 12:30 PM, but no one showed up.

At this point, even Lily's brows furrowed in dissatisfaction.

Suddenly, someone came in to report, "President Chen, Manager Wei, a Ding family member is here."

Lily and Fade got up and walked to the door.

Immediately, they saw a young man in his twenties, wearing a fancy suit, and a pair of sunglasses. He had a round belly and looked very flamboyant. Behind him, there were four bodyguards in black suits, and they walked in with great momentum.

Seeing him, Fade's eyes suddenly became cold. "It's him!"

"Do you know him?" Lily asked, looking at Fade.

He replied, "He is Evan Ding, Hensley's son. The one whose leg I broke."

"It's him." She frowned slightly.

Meanwhile, Evan had come up to them. Lily squeezed out a smile and greeted, "Hi Young Master Ding, I'm Lily, the general manager of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc."

"Manager Wei, I've heard that you are the famous beauty of the industry." Evan pushed down his sunglasses and swept his eyes over her unscrupulously.

She frowned slightly and continued to introduce, "Young Master Ding, you must be joking. You are more famous. This is the president of Fei

Enterprises Holdings Inc, Fade..."

Before she finished her introduction, Evan interrupted her directly. He took off his sunglasses and looked at Fade with a hint of resentment in his eyes. "I don't need your introduction. I am very familiar with Mr. Chen!"

While he spoke, he gritted his teeth, as if he could not wait to swallow Fade.

Fade looked calm. He took a look at Evan and said, "Evan Ding, I'm familiar with you too."

"Hmmph!" Evan snorted and then strode towards the private room.

Seeing this, Lily was confused and asked immediately, "Is Director Ding coming?"

Evan replied, "My father didn't come. I'll be in charge of the negotiations this time."

Hearing this, she immediately frowned. The previous day, Hensley agreed to come here and negotiate, but now, he didn't notify them before changing plans. Moreover, the person he appointed in his place was the well-known playboy, Evan.

She could vaguely guess that the negotiations that day would not go smoothly.

"Why? Manager Wei, you don't like me? If you don't want to talk to me, I'll go back," Evan looked at her and said.

She hurriedly said, "Young Master Ding, not at all. I was just a little shocked. You are indeed young and promising. You've gotten Director Ding's support and received such a heavy responsibility to negotiate with us."

"That's my dad. Of course he thinks highly of me!" He said generously.

After that, they entered the private room and took their seats.

Evan unceremoniously ordered some food and started to eat.

Lily and Fade also ate a little. Seeing that it was almost time, she took the initiative to bring up the topic and said, "Young Master Ding, we invited you out this time to talk about the sea..."

Without waiting for her to finish, he waved his hand and interrupted her.

Then, he drank a glass of red wine, swallowed the lobster, and patted his stomach. He said, "I know what you want to talk about."

"The problem that Fei Enterprise Holdings Inc is facing now is sea shipping, so you want the Ding family's help to ship your goods, right?"

She nodded and said, "Exactly. What do you think?"

Evan looked at her, then at Fade and said, "What do I think? In fact, my opinion is very simple."

"Please go ahead, Young Master Ding," she said.
