“I’m on it, but they used internet for their contact and hid the ID. We are going to need some time,” Yang Wenchang replied.
“OK, keep an eye on it. Tell me what you find,” Huo Jinyao said.
“And…” Yang Wenchang muttered.
The phone line rang. Huo Jinyao pressed the speaker button. “Mr. Huo, He Xuankai from the He Family Company is downstairs. He wants to meet you.”
“No,” Huo Jinyao said.
Huo Jinyao looked up and found that Yang Wenchang was smiling a bit awkwardly. “Mr. Huo, that is the other thing that I wanted to report to you. I don’t know how Mr. He reached out to the chairman. The chairman, however, said the bidding will be canceled and we will cooperate with the He Family.” Yang Wenchang said.
Yang Wenchang’s voice dropped lower and lower. He shrunk his neck and wanted to find a hole to hide away in.
“Now, am I in charge or is my father in charge?” Huo Jinyao asked.
“Of course you, but…” Yang Wenchang was unwilling to admit, but…
“Mr. Huo, I think you shouldn’t argue with the chairman. He owns 30% of Tianyu’s stakes,” Yang Wenchang said.
Huo Jinyao looked even angrier. “If my father’s stakes are enough to make you sell yourself to him, then I won’t mind if you go back to Rong City to work for my father.”
“Mr. Huo, I didn’t mean it. I…” Yang Wenchang muttered.
“OK, get out. I won’t meet He Xuankai. If he is capable enough to offer something that can satisfy me, he can have the project,” Huo Jinyao said.
“Yes.” Yang Wenchang dared not to speak anymore and left. He felt his back was wet with sweat.
…
Seeing He Xuankai walk through the door, He Xuanyao approached him immediately. “Brother, how’s it going? Has Jinyao said yes?”
“No.” He Xuankai looked at his own sister. “I told you it won’t work. You didn’t trust me. See?”
“How’s that possible? Huo Jinyao won’t listen to Uncle Huo?”
“If he followed his father’s instruction, he wouldn’t have come to Lin City alone,”
He Xuankai sighed. “Now, I only hope that my plan can get throughto him. If we can’t get the project, it’ll be worse than not making mone. The rankings in Rong City’s business circle will change again.”
“Brother.” He Xuanyao looked resentful. What if Huo Jinyao was purposefully sabotaging the He Family’s standing?
“Brother, I know a person who can make Huo Jinyao give in,” He Xuanyao added.
“Xuanyao, stop it. You should go back to Rong City in a couple of days. Leave the project alone,” He Xuankai said.
“Brother.” He Xuanyao didn’t want to leave. “It’s ok that Huo Jinyao doesn’t want me. I know someone who will amaze him.”
“Who?”
“Xu Ruoli.” He Xuanyao thought of the woman she couldn’t compete with. “Don’t forget that Ruoli is the lawful wife that the Huo Family agreed to. The two families have arranged an engagement.”
“Stop it, Huo Jinyao is married,” He Xuankai said.
“He is be married, but I think Sister Ruoli is different. I am going to call Sister Ruoli now,” He Xuanyao stated.
“Xuanyao? Xuanyao…” He Xuankai started to say.
He Xuankai wanted to stop her but she took her phone into her room.
He didn’t try to hard to stop her because he also wanted to know whether Huo Jinyao still cared about Xu Ruoli.
If he did, then there was a chance to force his cooperation.

Su Qingsang had no idea at all what was happening. She was busy after she returning to the hospital after having had time off.
