Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Zhaoyang was furious yet helpless.
Huo Yunting stroked her hair lightly and said, “Trust me.”
“Dp you have a plan?” Lu Zhaoyang gave him a doubtful look.
Huo Yunting lay back as he crossed his arms behind his head, and stared at the ceiling.
He stared at the bright crystal light hanging above, his gaze had an indiscernible aloofness to it. “The public may forget about his crimes with time, but in the battlefield of commerce, no one dared, or would forget the names of the magnates.”
“You mean to say…” Lu Zhaoyang seemed to vaguely grasped what he meant, “We can send other companies a reminder, to cease working with Xiangyuan? Will it work?”
She was not confident. “With benefits paraded before them, there’s bound to be a few who would take the risk.”
“But what if I can give them better benefits?” Huo Yunting asked in return.
Lu Zhaoyang blinked. “I’m listening…”
Huo Yunting gestured with his finger, and Lu Zhaoyang came over without a fuss. After listening to what he had in mind, her eyes brightened and gave him a surprise kiss on the lips!
“Huo Yunting, you sure are something! You’re brilliant to come out with this idea! Okay, leave this to me!”
As she said, she prepared to head upstairs.
“Wait up.”
Huo Yunting pulled her wrist, and with a little strength, she fell back onto the sofa, giving him a stink eye. “What’re you doing?”
“Continue.”
“Continue what?”
Huo Yunting raised his eyebrows, as he spat the words out as if it was meant to be.
“Praise me.”
“…”
Heh.
Lu Zhaoyang rolled her eyes, and with a swing of her hand, she got out of the sofa and left, leaving Huo Yunting alone in the room.
His smile slowly faded as he saw her off, as his lips took on a sinister curve while pulling out his phone, and gave Huo Li a call.
“Help me out with something.”
Just what Lu Zhaoyang had anticipated, with the passing of time, the attention of the public was diverted when the breaking news made its rounds.
And slowly, only a few actually bothered about Xiangyuan Corp any more.
Xiang Jinxi was waiting for this moment.
If Huo Yunting could use this move to break the rhythm of the rumor attacks, so could he.
However, things had progressed beyond Xiang Jinxi’s expectations.
Now, whenever Xiangyuan’s personnel went to negotiate business, they would be rejected outright by the companies without any recourse to discuss.
The first time may have been a coincidence, the second and third time, probably some mistake but when it happened time and time again, Xiang Jinxi immediately realized that something was wrong.
He ordered Chi Yun to scout things out.
After Chi Yun did some snooping around he found out that all of the companies they had wanted to work with had accepted the olive branches given out by Thunderbolt Corp.
“Boss!” Chi Yun reported, “Anytime when we try to do business with a company, Thunderbolt will immediately increase the price to attract their attention, and it had been a month that we were unable to secure any projects, and a few developmental projects too had to be stalled, you need to figure something out or the corp will go bankrupt sooner or later!”
Xiang Jinxi clenched his fist hard as veins started popping at the back of his hand, his heavy breathing showed his attempts to control his unbridled rage.
“Huo Yunting!” He hissed. “You’ve gone too far!”
Chi Yun simply looked down, and kept silent.
Xiangyuan was having trouble both inside and out, and if Thunderbolt had stayed away, it could potentially recover slowly.
But not only did Huo Yunting had made a move, he did it without taking into consideration the losses that he might take, just to suppress Xiangyuan!
