“Cough, cough. Of course, I’m not asking you to be a social butterfly!”
Huo Yingcheng let out a dry cough, before hurriedly bringing a glass of water to He Niancheng. He then shifted a chair and sat down next to He Niancheng as he explained things to him.
“Major-General, with your identity, Ye Henyu doesn’t dare to offend you. As your brother, I’m merely looking to settle Ye Henyu through you. As for the others…”
Before Huo Yingcheng could finish his words, He Niancheng straightened his body and coldly said to him, “It’s not that it can’t be done.”
“So you’re fine with that?”
Although Huo Yingcheng was very excited to hear that He Niancheng consented to it, he was a little taken aback to receive a positive reply since it was all so sudden. “You consent to it?”
“You can find time for us to meet. Didn’t you say he’s looking to set up a company?”
He Niancheng paused and the corners of his lips curled slightly, revealing a smile that made others shiver a little. “I have already prepared one.”
“What are you talking about?”
Huo Yingcheng didn’t get what he was saying.
“I wanted to help Qingjiu acquire the Yu family, but she didn’t consent to it. So I decided to do it the other way round.”
Huo Yingcheng revealed an enlightened expression. “So you’re doing this for Qingjiu…”
After he had finished speaking, his expression changed to a pained one. “Major-General, I couldn’t tell you’re such a person. You value your girlfriend over your friend! I only wanted you to have a meal with someone and you refused. Now, for Qingjiu, you’re even willing to acquire a company.”
“Another word from you and I’ll call this off.”
It was a threat said in a snarl and it made Huo Yingcheng’s expression turn solemn instantly. “Major-General, you mean to say you want Ye Henyu to invest in the Yu family?”
After all, he had interacted with the Major-General for so many years, so he knew the latter very well.
The instant He Niancheng said that he understood his intention right away.
He stroked his chin and nodded. “I know about the Yu family’s situation.”
If it weren’t for Qingjiu, Huo Yingcheng wouldn’t have paid attention to such an insignificant company as the Yu family’s corporation.
“The Yu family is facing a crisis right now. After the Li family’s son passed away, the Li family withdrew all their support to the Yu family. It’s not impossible for Ye Henyu to help them, but the Yu family’s company has too small a scale, I’m afraid Ye Henyu won’t deign to invest in them!”
Look, the Yu family which looked high-and-mighty was deemed unworthy in the eyes of these people.
What would Gu Qingjiu think if she comes to know of this?
“I can talk to him personally regarding this matter.”
He Niancheng got to his feet. At the thought of Gu Qingjiu’s face, he suddenly felt like he was in a good mood.
“If she wishes to deal with them herself, I’ll let her do it herself. But right now the Yu family is too weak, I’ll make it a little more challenging for her. In the future when she acquires it, she would have more capital to enter the Helian family.”
Huo Yingcheng’s jaw dropped upon hearing this.
With a finger pointing at He Niancheng, he looked like his eyeballs were about to pop out. “Major-General, y-y-you… you really think that far ahead?”
“Are you for real?”
He Niancheng’s expression darkened. “Is there a need for me to fake it?”
Huo Yingcheng was speechless.
He was shocked out of his wits.
If he were to tell the old master about this, the latter’s heart might just leap out of his chest.
He Niancheng, however, didn’t care about what Huo Yingcheng felt about this. He picked up his phone from the table. He calmly said, “I’m knocking off from work. If you wish to continue sitting here, by all means…
“Arrange the matter quickly. I’m only free to meet him this week.”
With that, he walked out of the office.
It was only after he left did Huo Yingcheng slowly let out the word he had been keeping in his heart.
“Damn!”
