"Hello, Grandmaster Su, I am Sun Qingdai from the Hidden Sun Family."

After saying this, she continued:

"The Hidden Sun Family has just stated our three demands."

"Regarding how many of these three demands Grandmaster Su can agree to, we shall not speak of it for now."

"We also wish to hear Grandmaster Su's terms for negotiation."

Su Fan glanced at Sun Qingdai and found that this eldest lady of the Sun Family had a rather plain appearance.

Not only was she not a beauty, she couldn't even be considered ordinary-looking; she was downright unattractive.

However, she was evidently of the same kind as Pang Tong and Huang Yueying from history.

Though their looks were lacking, they were incredibly intelligent.

As soon as she spoke, Su Fan concluded that Sun Qingdai's intelligence was on a different level compared to Sun Tianci.

When facing Sun Qingdai, Su Fan was more serious and cautious.

Sometimes, the negotiation table is even more dangerous than the battlefield.

On the battlefield, the gains and losses are clear at a glance.

But the negotiation table is different.

Many things, at first glance, seem to offer great advantages.

However, the reality might be that one has suffered massive losses without realizing it.

After Sun Qingdai spoke, Su Fan carefully said:

"First, the Hidden Sun Family and its related forces must not continue to take action against me and those around me."

"Second, the Hidden Sun Family must not interfere with the normal market competition of Oriental Medicine and Oriental Group."

"After our negotiation, at least until we truly fall out again, the Hidden Sun Family should not harbor significant hostility towards me and the Oriental Group."

"Third, during this negotiation, impractical demands should not be stubbornly clung to by the Hidden Sun Family."

After Su Fan's words, Sun Tianci's face had already changed multiple times.

Outside the hall, Sun Tianming was already furious.

If it weren't for the fact that today was unsuitable for a fight, and action couldn't be taken, he would have stormed in to fight Su Fan.

Compared to Sun Tianming and Sun Tianci, Sun Qingdai was clearly a wise person.

Su Fan's earlier words didn't cause even a slight change in her emotions.

After Su Fan finished speaking, Sun Qingdai nodded calmly.

"Grandmaster Su, I've understood your demands."

"Given the current situation, we indeed have no way to prove that the disappearance of Grandmaster Sun Yuqi is directly related to you."

"However, one thing is certain, which is that Grandmaster Sun Yuqi was with Mrs. Wang Xiaoxiao before she disappeared."

"I don't know if Grandmaster Su could explain how you found Mrs. Wang Xiaoxiao, or provide related clues."

In matters like this, the more you say, the more mistakes you make.

A lie requires more lies to cover up.

The best approach is to selectively speak the truth.

This is the strategy Su Fan adopted.

What he said earlier was mostly true, only he didn't disclose all the details.

Sun Qingdai clearly realized this possibility, hence she insisted on him providing related clues.

No matter how he answered, there was a high chance of problems arising.

Thus, Su Fan replied to Sun Qingdai: "How I found Mrs. Wang Xiaoxiao has nothing to do with this negotiation."

"I can only say that the matter of Grandmaster Sun Yuqi has no connection to me."

Although he said it like this, Sun Qingdai understood that the breakthrough point for this matter still lay with Su Fan.

However, Su Fan's stance was clear that he would provide no clues regarding this issue.

The Hidden Sun Family is not one to swallow their pride; they will not take things lying down.

But this time they invited Su Fan to negotiate, not to continue a fight.

The account of Grandmaster Sun Yuqi will be temporarily noted down, to be settled with Su Fan another time.
