To be honest, Xie Lidan Xiandi admitted that she had never been tempted in the past 20 years. However, when she saw this extraordinary gentleman, she still hardened her heart.
This strange feeling filled her heart. Miss Xie Lidan Xiandi felt uncomfortable, especially when this gentleman looked at her with his eyes.
However, after she slowly reacted, Xie Li Dan Xiandi would never admit that she liked him!
Thus, she placed her hands on her hips and proudly turned her head away.
“Hmph, why should I tell you!”
Miss Xie Lidan Xiandi did not know that the gentleman standing in front of her was the owner of the gym. Although she was very moved by him, her hostile nature made her avoid this question.
Monroe, who was left at the side, immediately recognized the man when he saw him!
This was Mike!
Thus, he immediately ran close to Miss Xie Lidan Xiandi’s ear and quietly reminded her.
“Miss Xiandi, this man is the owner of the gym! Viscount Mike, I know him.”
With Monroe’s reminder, Miss Xie Lidan Xiandi immediately turned back to look at Mike. Her eyes could not help but shine as she sighed in her heart.
“So, this gentleman is the owner of the gym.”
Since this extraordinary gentleman was the owner of the gym, thinking of this, Xie Lidan Xiandi felt that she was starting to like the gym.
Facing the master and servant whispering and their various reactions, Mike saw it all in his heart. He didn’t forget the man in front of him called Monroe. When Mike had just transmigrated, Monroe had wanted to sell him the amethyst.
But Mike had never seen this gorgeous and cute young lady with an extremely proud attitude.
Mike had been thinking about the points when he suddenly heard the conversation between the young lady and her servant.
In the past, Mike would surely throw out such customers who talked about the shop before they left and let them taste the consequences of talking nonsense.
However, after listening carefully, he realized that what the lady said seemed to be the solution to his current problem.
Therefore, Mike did not say anything for the time being. He quietly listened to the lady’s analysis, especially when he heard her suggestion about the price of the gym. Mike could not help but ask the question in his heart, ‘How much do you think the price should be?’
After he blurted out this sentence, Mike came to his senses. He was a little surprised, but he did not regret it. He wanted to ask this person clearly and make sure that she had a reason. If she could not give a reason, he would still throw out the two people who were spreading rumors and causing trouble.
However, all of these were Mike’s mental calculations.
On the other side, after Xie Lidan Xiandi found out that this gym was Mike’s, she was happy and thought of an idea. Therefore, she looked at Mike and said, “Sure, but it’s very complicated. I want to talk to you in the office. Just the two of us!”
When Miss Xie Lidan Xiandi saw Mike, it could be said that she had fallen in love with this man who had a certain style, so, she seized the opportunity to be alone with him.
However, this scared the old butler, Monroe. When he heard what Miss Xiandi said, he couldn’t help but wave his hand and reject her idea.
“Oh no, no, no, no, young lady, you can’t do this…”
But Monroe’s words at the side were obviously superfluous between the two of them. No one listened to him at all.
When Mike heard this, he didn’t think too much. He just felt that since this person dared to ask for a private meeting, then she must have the confidence to say the real reason for the management. Otherwise, if she lied, he wouldn’t let her run away!
Then, after the two of them reached an agreement, they moved to the office.
After arriving at the office, Xie Lidan Xiandi didn’t hesitate. She directly expressed her thoughts and a series of follow-up management strategies.
She even said bluntly, “Your gym is magical, but the price has persuaded most people in Danafu City to withdraw. Five hundred gold coins for a chance to experience it. Although the effect is very good, when they can’t pay, your customers will never return. Your shop will be so cold because there is no repeat business with customers.”
“I suggest that you lower the price first and change it to a slightly more approachable price to receive a wave of customers primarily. After they experience the miraculous strength, although the price is expensive, they can still afford it. That is why they will keep on returning. Moreover, after I went to the gym, I can see that although your gym doesn’t have any side effects, it should require long-term exercise to reach a more ideal result.”
“Then, let’s use this to hook bigger fishes. By the time they come back to their senses, they’ve already spent a lot of money on the gym. Together with the number of people accumulated, this calculation will be highly profitable!”
It had to be said that Xie Lidan Xiandi was indeed smart as the daughter of the president of the Chamber of Commerce. She truly knew about the effects of the threshold. In his previous life, many of Mike’s businesses had this kind of trick, lowering the threshold to let customers in first. The customers thought that they had gotten a great deal, so they came to spend crazily. However, they didn’t realize that this was just the first step in the trick. When they returned to their senses, they were already unable to extricate themselves.
After all, the saying that something free was the most expensive could not be disregarded.
Mike’s fingers couldn’t help but knock on the table. When he heard Xie Lidan Xiandi’s words, he nodded and thought to himself, ‘It does make a bit of sense. Although I don’t like to change the price, I need to consider the issue of the points. After all, I only have points when customers are working out. This is indeed a good way to increase points!’
Mike looked at Xie Lidan Xiandi and saw that she looked for him to say these words. She definitely wasn’t just reminding him to forget about it, so he said, “What do you want?”
Getting straight to the point was the best way. Mike didn’t want to beat around the bush like a businessman before. If this woman’s conditions were reasonable, he could agree to it.
Unexpectedly, Xie Lidan Xiandi’s eyes lit up when she heard this. She stared at him and didn’t let go. Mike unnaturally picked up the handkerchief in his pocket to cover his mouth and nose. He coughed.
Realizing that she had overreacted, Xie Lidan Xiandi’s face slightly blushed. Damn it, how did she get exposed? In a hurry, her mind was racing as she thought, ‘Ah, why am I stunned! But he is truly handsome!’
‘If I look at him like this, will he see that I like him? No, I have to be reserved. Humph, I am the daughter of the honorable president of the Chamber of Commerce. I have seen all kinds of noble things.’
‘However, I am just talking to him in the way of discussing business.’
‘Humph, I don’t like him at all!’
With all these thoughts, Xie Lidan Xiandi immediately became much more natural. Hence, she said to Mike, “I, I only need to get one year’s free use of the gym, and in return, I can help you manage the gym. Of course, I’m not boasting. You’ll understand after seeing the results of my management.”
Miss Xiandi’s conditions were truly very simple. She only needed one year’s free use, and she could also help him manage the gym.
Someone who could work for him without paying and could even provide him with points. After considering it while rhythmic tapping on the table, Mike stopped and said calmly, “Alright, it’s decided. I’ll see if you’ll succeed!”
Following a mutual agreement, the two of them left the office in tacit understanding.
What Mike didn’t know was that Xie Lidan Xiandi was doing all this just to stay in the gym.
On the other side, this made Monroe anxious. The two of them had been talking for a long time. Monroe walked around the door but didn’t see any movement in the office, so he wanted to knock on the door. But before he could do so, he was stopped by a servant.
As a consequence, Monroe could only watch from afar. When he saw that Xie Lidan Xiandi was safe and sound, he immediately ran up to her and said, “Miss, you’re really making me worry to death. You can’t be so rash in the future. What if Mike is plotting against you?”
“It’s getting late. Let’s hurry back to the manor!”
After Monroe said that, he pretended to bring the young president’s daughter away, but Xie Lidan Xiandi immediately let him go and said arrogantly, “I’m not going back to the manor. I want to stay here, Monroe. I’ve already discussed it with that man!”
Monroe was flung away. When he heard this, his face was filled with disbelief. Seeing that the lady insisted on sending him away, there was nothing he could do.
Unable to persuade her, he could only take the carriage and leave first.
While returning to the manor, the more Monroe thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. Was this Mike giving the lady some sort of bewitching potion?!
Thus, Monroe wrote a letter to the president who was far away in another country dealing with matters in business..
