At night, Xiao Lingyu sat in front of her makeup table. She was about to remove her makeup and get ready for bed.
“So, Ye ‘Er’s trouble this time is all because of a silly woman?” Xiao Lingyu was speechless.
Gong Tianhao stood behind Xiao Lingyu and bent down to hug her waist. He leaned his head on her shoulder and nodded with a smile, “That’s right. This is what had happened.”
Xiao Lingyu rolled her eyes and laughed, “What nonsense.”
She thought that their fate had been changed and her brother wouldn’t be betrayed by his partners again. After all, she was there to guide him this time. And he had completely different partners. However, the incident still repeated itself. But this time, it was all because of a woman.
In her previous life, although she did not know why Xiao Lingye was betrayed, she believed the betrayal was due to money and benefits.
With her brother’s ability and all the shares he owned, he would definitely make those people jealous.
Xiao Lingyu asked, “What’s the background of that woman? She has a great ability to convince those men to betray Ye ‘Er. They probably didn’t even know that they’d been tricked by this woman.”
Gong Tianhao curled his lips and said, “They are too foolish.” He paused for a moment and continued, “That woman is from a side branch of the Jiang family.”
“The Jiang Family?” Xiao Lingyu said with some doubt, “Jiang Tao’s family?”
“Which other family can it be?” Gong Tianhao said with some displeasure, “I wonder what enmity the Jiang family has had with us in our past lives. It seems that the Jiang family is involved in all our troubles. This time, it has even involved Ye ‘Er.”
Xiao Lingyu was silent for a moment.
The first time, their car accident was caused by the Qin family’s Qin Yan. However, that was because of Young Master Jiang.
The second time, Green Fresh was caught in the rumors. They were framed. The main culprit was Jiang Tao’s fiancée.
Now, Xiao Lingye was framed by someone from the Jiang family too.
Perhaps they did have an enmity with the Jiang Family in their previous life.
Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment and said, “Is Ye ‘Er alright now? He didn’t even tell his sister about such a big matter.” As she said this, she couldn’t help but show some worry.
Gong Tianhao leaned on her shoulder and looked at the handsome man and beautiful woman in the mirror. He smiled and comforted her, “You don’t have to worry. Ye ‘Er is a grown-up now. He will handle it himself. Don’t worry. Little Brother is very smart. He won’t be so easily set up. We’ll just wait and see. Besides, if it gets worse, we’ll help from behind. Trust me. No one can bully little brother.”
Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “That might be true, but you don’t know how ruthless a woman can be when she’s crazy.”
Qin Yan was just like that. No one would have thought that such a high-profile socialite in the capital would be capable of causing a car accident and killing someone.
Gong Tianhao thought of this as well. He said, “Don’t worry, I’ve already sent people to keep an eye on that woman from the Jiang Family. We’ll just wait and see how little brother deals with this on his own first.”
As he said this, his thin and sexy lips directly touched the tip of Xiao Lingyu’s ear. In a gentle and sexy hoarse voice, he said, “Yu ‘Er, it’s very late. We should rest!”
…
The school beauty goddess, Jiang Shuyu, intercepted Xiao Lingye to express her dissatisfaction and disappointment. Instead, she was embarrassed by Xiao Lingye.
“Damn. What does senior Xiao mean by that?” A classmate said in surprise, “Why would he need the Goddess to be his messenger?”
Someone seemed to have seen through the truth. However, in order not to offend anyone, he did not expose the truth.
“Senior Xiao will sell his shares in two hours,” a classmate said in disbelief, “I heard that the market value of Teng Fei technology company is now 20 million. And senior Xiao has 20 percent of the company shares. In other words, senior Xiao can get at least four million for his shares. He’s a millionaire!”
“This is quite disheartening. We are still asking for school fees and living expenses, but senior Xiao’s net worth is already over a million.”
“I heard that when senior Xiao started the company with a few other people, he didn’t contribute a single cent.” The person said this with a sour note. “He sure is lucky.”
Someone immediately retorted, “Someone sure is sour. Senior Xiao has both luck and ability. Let’s see you do the same. A loser won’t understand.”
“Who are you calling a poor loser?” He asked angrily.
“The loser is the one who answers.” The person sneered.
“You…” he was angry and didn’t know how to refute.
“But, what exactly does senior Xiao mean by those words?” Someone asked doubtfully.
“Who cares what he means. Let’s just wait two hours and see the result.”
“Obviously, it’s one against five now.” Someone sighed and said, “I don’t know if senior Xiao can win. After all, those rumors and slanders put him at a disadvantage.”
…
Just as everyone was speculating, Qiao Ruoyang, Su Yang, and the other three were gathered in the conference room, looking anxious.
They had received Xiao Lingye’s message, not via Jiang Shuyu but through their other friends.
The five of them were originally from Beijing. Their family owned a company and had some money, so there were a lot of people who wanted to befriend them.
“What does Xiao Lingye mean by those words?” Dai Yimin said with a very angry expression, “He was clearly the one who sold the company’s business secrets. We’re being kind for not pursuing responsibility, but he’s threatening us!”
The other four people were silent for a moment.
“Xiao Lingye said that he will sell the shares in his hands in two hours,” Qiao Ruoyang said seriously, “If we don’t buy these shares, who will he sell them to? Could it be that he has been contacting the bosses of the other companies these past few days?”
“That’s impossible,” Pang Dayue said suspiciously. “I heard that Xiao Lingye has been staying on campus for the past two days. Who did he contact?
“No matter how rich the bosses are, they won’t buy millions of shares over a phone call. They have to at least meet him in person.
“However, Xiao Lingye has been staying on campus and has never left.”
“Then, this is strange!” Chu Xiangbei lowered his head and looked at the time. “No matter what, the question now is, what should we do now?”
Regardless, he wouldn’t let someone else buy Xiao Lingye’s shares and take the position of the major shareholder.
Therefore, the shares in Xiao Lingye’s hands could only be bought by the five of them.
Originally, they had planned to make Xiao Lingye lose all his reputation. Then, they would force Xiao Lingye to give up his shares for free.
But what they did not expect was that no matter how fierce the rumors outside were, Xiao Lingye’s attitude was steady and firm. Xiao Lingye was unfazed.
“Xiao Lingye said that we only have two hours.” Qiao Ruoyang thought for a moment and said, “If we don’t do anything, he’ll sell his shares to someone else.”
“What can we do?” Pang Dayue said with some ridicule, “What kind of scheme can we come up with in just two hours anyway?”
“Our goal is to drive him out of the company directly,” Dai Yimin said. “I think we shouldn’t play any tricks and just buy the shares in his hands directly!” The problem he was worried about was they would lose more if they played any more tricks.
“Buy the shares directly?” Pang Dayue said with a cold snort, “But who among us will buy them? No matter who, no one will be convinced. I had already offered to buy the shares and then split them among us. However, none of you agreed. So what should we do now?”
The four nodded, but each carried their own thoughts.
