After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 459

An Nuan frowned.

After staying silent and thinking for quite a while, Tan Yufei said, "It's hard to guess. Personally, I think we'll have to see the results of tomorrow's talks."

An Nuan nodded.

She was still quite satisfied with Tan Yufei's prudence.

She said, "Let's make preparations first according to our plans for the project. You did a transformation marketing plan for the Pearl Jewelry e-commerce platform before, right?! Stay overtime tonight to make some modifications to it. We'll be going to discuss cooperation at 10am tomorrow."

"Alright." Tan Yufei nodded.

"Can you get it done tonight?"

"It shouldn't be a problem."

"I'll work on it together with you," An Nuan said. "Call up all the people from the e-commerce team we set up and improve it together."

"Yes."

"Be at the small meeting room in 20 minutes. We'll discuss it together."

"Yes."

After An Nuan gave the instructions, she went through all the processes that had come up and approved them. Then, together with Tan Yufei and project team members, she wrote an international e-commerce marketing plan in the meeting room.

There were many elements to the plan, and each one required a lot of time.

From the afternoon to the evening, late into the night and until dawn.

The finalized plan was not ready until 5am.

Everyone in the room was exhausted and fell asleep on the meeting room table.

An Nuan was also tired. But lying on the table, she could not fall asleep. So she got up, intending to go back to her office to rest.

She tiptoed out of the meeting room, but did not go straight to her office. Instead, she went to the pantry to make a cup of black tea.

Just as she finished brewing it, Tan Yufei's voice sounded from behind her, "President An, why don't you get some sleep?"

An Nuan turned around. "Why don't you get some sleep?"

"I was very sleepy just now, but suddenly I can't fall asleep anymore," Tan Yufei smiled. "I'm probably too excited. I didn't expect we could come up with such a perfect plan overnight. I had heard beforehand about President An's outstanding abilities. This time I have witnessed them again, not just your capabilities, but your spirit too. From the messy mess when we first started writing the plan to the orderly manner under your leadership... President An, I'm really glad I returned to China to develop my career. It has helped me improve tremendously."

"You flatter me," An Nuan said flatly. "I'm just more experienced, so e-commerce is not unfamiliar territory for me."

Tan Yufei clearly did not understand what An Nuan meant.

An Nuan did not explain further. "I'll go back for a bit. I suggest you also get some rest. We still have to negotiate properly with the other party at 10am."

"Alright." Tan Yufei nodded.

An Nuan left the pantry carefully.

She didn't know if it was because there was some water on the floor when she poured water just now. Wearing high heels, she didn't pay much attention and stepped on the puddle, slipping.

Tan Yufei reacted swiftly to catch An Nuan.

An Nuan fell into Tan Yufei's embrace.

She was still a little shocked.

"Are you okay?" Tan Yufei asked with concern.

An Nuan quickly extricated herself from Tan Yufei's embrace and stood up straight. "I'm fine, thank you just now."

"You're welcome." Tan Yufei did not forget to remind her, "Be careful, President An."

An Nuan nodded.

She left carefully.

She was still a little scared from her near fall.

If she had really fallen down, it would have been so embarrassing.

Fortunately, Tan Yufei caught her.

She didn't know if it was her imagination, but she felt Tan Yufei's reaction was too quick.

And it seemed like they were not that close to each other. If he had been a little slower, she would have fallen to the floor.

In the end, An Nuan did not think too much about it.

But Tan Yufei, still standing in the pantry, had a subtle change in his facial expression.

His fingers tightened slightly.

The feeling on his fingertips was clearly too intense!

...

An Nuan arrived at the company a little after 9am.

She went back to sleep for three hours before getting up.

After arriving at the company, she went directly with Tan Yufei and Luo Si to the hotel where Beers was staying.

She let all the employees who had worked overnight go back to rest.

It was exactly 9:50 when they arrived at the hotel.

An Nuan took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

Beers' assistant opened the door enthusiastically. "Welcome, President An. Mr. Beers is already waiting for you in the reception room."

Then he led them to the private reception room of the presidential suite.

Beers was drinking red wine, sitting under the floor-to-ceiling window, basking in the November sunshine of Qing City, looking quite relaxed.

Seeing them arrive, he waved them over. "Sit."

An Nuan nodded slightly.

She sat not far from Beers.

The server inside poured a glass of red wine for An Nuan.

Beers said, "I had this specially air-flown from abroad. Try it, Miss An."

An Nuan picked up the wine glass and tasted it carefully. "The aroma is rich, the entry is mellow, the balance harmonious, and the aftertaste lingering."

Beers smiled. "Once we open up the international e-commerce platform, such fine red wine will be readily available to the people of North Wen Country."

"So the international e-commerce platform is a boon to the people of North Wen Country." An Nuan affirmed.

"The things Miss An said to me at the banquet the other night, I thought about them a lot after I got back. I also looked into Pearl Jewelry's e-commerce platform as Miss An suggested. From what I understand so far, the potential is indeed huge." Beers got straight to the point. "However..."

So.

The "however" was the key.

An Nuan listened attentively.

Beers said, "The scale is too small. Even if An Group tried its best to quickly build an e-commerce platform, you couldn't possibly achieve the scale we want in a very short time. Let alone require large traffic volumes and mature operations in a short period. If it had been three months earlier, I would have chosen you unhesitatingly. But at this point, I can only say I'm sorry."

An Nuan was unfazed.

She had guessed early on that things could not be so simple.

But she did not feel their efforts last night were wasted either.

She remained very composed. "In that case, we won't bother Mr. Beers anymore. Still, we're very grateful that Mr. Beers took the time to meet with us in person and tell us the reason for not working with us. I hope there will be opportunities to collaborate in the future."

Saying that, An Nuan stood up and took the initiative to shake hands.

Beers looked at An Nuan.

He was still a little surprised by An Nuan's calmness.

Most people would be emotional, but An Nuan was displaying such poise.

It did make him take notice.

Beers shook An Nuan's hand. "I hope we can collaborate next time."

An Nuan nodded.

She left with Tan Yufei and Luo Si.

Luo Si actually felt a little indignant.

With one sentence from Beers last night, he had made them work overnight.

And today, with one sentence, he dismissed them again.

She held back again and again from saying what was on her mind.

The moment An Nuan walked out, she stopped in her tracks.

She suddenly turned back, "Mr. Beers, I have an inappropriate request."

"Speak your mind."

"As the father of e-commerce, we made a plan for the e-commerce platform. An Group will still develop in this direction in the future after all. I'd still like to ask Mr. Beers to give us some pointers on our plan."
