Just as Sun Xue expected, she lost the case.

The judgment does not clearly specify the repayment time, and the specific repayment time shall be negotiated by the creditor and the debtor.

Sun Xue couldn't help but secretly rejoice. As long as it was a negotiation, it would be very beneficial to her. Next, she would have room to maneuver.

Wu Zechen had set a trap to frame her before, so this time she was going to take advantage of him and let him have a taste of being led by the nose.

She also acted like a rogue and played the villain for once. Anyway, the money was in her hands, and it would not be easy for Wu Zechen to take it back now.

Sun Xue proposed out-of-court negotiations, and Wu Zechen agreed reluctantly after careful consideration.

So, the two of them sat face to face.

Sun Xue, with a smile on her face, took the lead in breaking the awkward atmosphere:

"Mr. Wu, I didn't expect that our cooperation would end up like this. You withdrew your investment midway and now you've taken me to court. Back then, I was working with you wholeheartedly. I trusted you and treated you as a friend."

Wu Zechen was feeling upset. He held a grudge against Sun Xue and just wanted to get the money as soon as possible, which was a considerable sum.

Whenever he thought of the days when Sun Xue asked Boss Jin to abuse him, he felt so angry that his teeth itched.

The more relaxed Sun Xue was, the more unsure he felt.

He knew very well that the situation he was facing now was completely different from before, and he didn't have much time left. He had to get the money quickly before running away.

Wu Zechen suppressed his inner dissatisfaction, and said with a slight smile:

"Our cooperation has ended. There is no point in discussing this now. The verdict has been handed down. Since it is a negotiation between the two parties, I will state my conditions. I need the money urgently. You have delayed for a long time. I hope you can deposit the money into my personal account within a week."

After hearing this, Sun Xue said calmly, "I wish I could deposit the money into your account right away, but you also know that the film and television base was originally a one-hundred-million-yuan project, but you turned it into a three-hundred-million-yuan project. All the money was invested in it, and now you want to withdraw your investment midway and leave the mess to me. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but my company's current liquid funds on the books do not exceed two million yuan."

Wu Zechen immediately became anxious, his eyes wide open:

"What do you mean?"

Sun Xue smiled and said, "It's nothing. My company is in a very tight financial situation right now. I will transfer your money to your account within half a year."

Wu Zechen decisively retorted, "Boss Sun, are you kidding me? How is that possible? Don't I know whether your company has money or not? It's only one week, not even one more day!"

Sun Xue immediately cried poor, "Boss Wu, don't you understand the situation of my company? We are in a period of transition and all projects require capital investment. Do you have any profitable projects?"

Besides, I still owe the bank tens of millions. Are you trying to push me into a desperate situation? I have made it very clear that it is not that I don’t want to pay it back, but I really have no other choice. Even if I ask the bank for a loan, it will not be approved within a week!"

Wu Zechen would not fall for Sun Xue's tricks. He knew that Sun Xue's company was rich. Not to mention, Sun Xue had recovered tens of millions of dollars that were defrauded by Zhao Haimei not long ago.

Wu Zechen was quite resolute. “I don’t want to hear your reasons, and don’t try to fool me. I only recognize the court’s verdict. I just want to get my investment back. If you insist on cheating, then the court can only enforce it.”

Regarding Wu Zechen's tough attitude, Sun Xue also expressed her own attitude:

"Mr. Wu, you used the word 'playing dirty' in the wrong place, didn't you? You turned a 100 million project into a 300 million project, but you want to withdraw the investment in the middle. You should be the one playing dirty! I can only try my best to find a solution. As for when I can raise the money, I can't guarantee it, but it will probably be difficult within a week."

Wu Zechen said angrily, "Boss Sun, don't think I don't know what tricks you are going to play. I still say the same thing. I want to see the money within a week, so I will let the court enforce it. Don't think that if you refuse to pay the money, the law can't do anything to you."

Sun Xue deliberately softened her tone, "Mr. Wu, negotiation requires mutual concessions. So, I will help you raise the money within three months. Is that ok?"

"No."

Sun Xue continued to compromise, "Then two months, this is my bottom line."

"Impossible, just one week." Wu Zechen said firmly.

Sun Xue could only shake her head helplessly, "Boss Wu, this is a bit unreasonable! Can this negotiation... still go on?"

"I still say the same thing, you have one week to figure it out for yourself!"

Sun Xue spread her hands, "Then it's up to you."

No results were reached through negotiation and both parties parted unhappily.

Wu Zechen left angrily. He immediately called his lawyer and said, "Find a way to investigate the financial situation of Sun Xue's company and see what she is up to!"

Wu Zechen was unsure. He knew that Sun Xue's company had money on the books, but Sun Xue kept saying that her company had no money. Being suspicious by nature, Wu Zechen felt that there must be something fishy going on.

Lu Group.

Zhao Wanru, dressed in a professional suit, walked lightly towards Lu Huohua's office with a carefully prepared summary report on corporate culture construction in her hand.

For a well-known company like Lu Group, corporate culture is also an important task in company development and external publicity.

At that time, Zhao Wanru's mother recommended her daughter through her relationship with Mrs. Lu. With her excellent writing skills and eloquence, as well as her beautiful appearance, Zhao Wanru successfully entered the Lu Group and served as the director of the group's cultural and publicity department.

The door of Lu Huohua's office was ajar. Just as Zhao Wanru was about to knock on the door, she heard that familiar name. Driven by curiosity, Zhao Wanru's hand stopped in mid-air...

At this time, Lu Huohua was standing in front of the window with his back to the door, talking quietly on the phone with Sun Xue. Sun Xue was telling Lu Huohua the details of the negotiation between her and Mr. Wu.

Lu Huohua had no idea that someone was secretly eavesdropping outside the door...

"Sun Xue, don't be afraid. Just insist that the company has no money. Even if Mr. Wu asks the court to enforce the order, the court will not freeze your company's assets immediately if it finds that your company has no money on its books after investigation."

Sun Xue expressed her concerns, "If it is found that the company's money has recently flowed to your company, will it cause you trouble?"

"Don't worry, Sun Xue, I will let the finance department take care of the money you transferred to my company..."

"Sun Xue, don't be afraid. If anything happens, just call your godfather."

Hearing this, Zhao Wanru immediately knocked on the office door.

"That's it. I'm hanging up now."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Howard turned around and sat back in his chair.

"Please come in."

Zhao Wanru pushed the door open and walked in. She handed the document to Lu Huohua respectfully with a smile on her face, and said softly:

"Mr. Lu, this is my summary of the company's corporate culture construction this year. I have also made some plans for the focus of work in this area next year. Please take a look."
