Chapter 1500: Shameless
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Chairman Shi, defamation is also a crime.” As an elder brother, Nangong Yun had a natural instinct to protect his younger sister. As long as Shi Maode said anything bad about his younger sister, Nangong Yun would immediately jump out like a protective lioness to protect Nangong Nuannuan.
Shi Maode could feel his blood boiling and the energy inside his body in disarray; his left chest began to hurt. He endured the pain and exclaimed, “If she didn’t cheat, how did she manage to buy this piece of land by offering just 1 million more than my bidding price?”
“A million more than you is cheating? If I really did cheat, then I wouldn’t be offering one million more than you. I’d only offer one dollar more than you!
“You… Nangong Nuannuan, what do you mean by that? This piece of land is something that my Shi family wants. I advise you to retract your offer just now.”
“Do you think I’ll listen to you just because you tell me to? Who are you to me?”
“Nangong Nuannuan, you’re a younger generation from the Nangong family. The Shi family and the Nangong family bump into each other too frequently. It’s best not to make things too difficult.” Shi Maode’s heart was already hurting more and more. This piece of land was probably the best that the Shi family had seen in the past ten years. There was nothing that could make him give up this piece of land!
If Nangong Nuannuan did not give up on acquiring this land, this auction would be a successful one.
However, the Shi family could not give up this piece of land.
Therefore, Shi Maode could only threaten her.
He hoped that Nangong Nuannuan would understand what he was implying and give up acquiring this piece of land.
“So, Chairman Shi understands the concept of not making things difficult. That’s great. Then, please restrain those random cats and dogs around you. Otherwise… Since the Nangong and Shi families bump into each other frequently, the outcome might not be what you want to see if you make things too ugly.”
Shi Maode narrowed his eyes. “What do you mean?”
“I mean it literally.”
After saying that, Nangong Nuannuan looked at the auctioneer and said, “The bid has ended. Can we announce the name of the buyer?”
The auctioneer from the bidding agency looked at Shi Maode awkwardly.
After all, the Shi family had everything arranged, starting from the people from the executive hall to the people from the bidding agency. However, Fortune Group was not the one to obtain the plot of land. This made it very difficult for them to report to their superiors!
At the same time, he lamented at how powerful Tianheng Holdings had proven itself to be for a company that came from a foreign country. They paid 38 billion at a whim, just like that. They were so rich it was unbelievable.
Shi Maode noticed that the auctioneer were looking at him. Although Shi Maode clearly knew that there was no problem with the bidding, he wanted to do everything in his power to make sure that the Shi family could take over the plot of land. Therefore, he said, “I feel that there’s something fishy about this bid, so I’m raising my objection here. I hope that the bidding agency and the relevant departments of the executive hall can choose another day for another bidding attempt.”
“Chairman Shi, you’re the chairman of Fortune Group after all. How could you do something so shameless in public?”
“Nangong Yun, who are you calling shameless? The bid started at a price that was greater than 30 billion. If there’s nothing fishy about it, would your sister be able to top my Fortune Group by a mere one million?” Shi Maode asked angrily.
“I’ve always heard that the Shi family doesn’t care much about their reputation. Since I haven’t interacted much with people from the Shi family before, I didn’t think much of it. Today, I’ve witnessed this for myself.”
Shi Maode looked at the person who spoke. This was the person from the Eagle Eye Group who had an ordinary appearance, an ordinary name, and zero background. Even so, even the Shi family could not do anything to shake his existence.
Liao Chuan had always kept a low profile and was not the kind of person who would casually make enemies.
