Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The shock and bewilderment on Rong Tianshi’s face could not be easily dismissed.
Rong Qi sneered, “If you want to save your family, this is the only way. No one’s forcing you. It’s up to you to decide, Mr. Rong.”
She had no desire to take over the decrepit sh.e.l.l that was the Rong Holdings. Had she not been looking for an opportunity to break into the Leucia market, she wouldn’t have bothered with the family’s fate at all. With that, Rong Qi turned and walked away. Spending time with Rong Tianshi was less appealing to her than being with her husband.
Rong Tianshi stood motionless, rigid as a statue. After a long pause, his a.s.sistant finally stepped forward and said, “Mr. Rong, it seems like Mrs. Ye has no intentions of helping. It’s even possible she’s behind Mr. Ye targeting us. Otherwise, why would Mr. Ye, who controls the Jingsheng Corporation, bother with us, a small fry like Rong Holdings?”
The a.s.sistant glanced at Rong Tianshi’s facial expressions as he spoke. Seeing them darken, he grew more animated. The a.s.sistant added, “Mr. Rong, your incompatibility with Mrs. Ye is probably for the best. If not, we would have to deal with this kind of situation more than once. All we need to do is survive this crisis. She can’t keep undermining us.”
“That ungrateful wench!” Rong Tianshi spat out with venom. “We’re not just incompatible, we’re enemies through and through!”
A glint of something unusual flashed in the a.s.sistant’s eyes as he rea.s.sured, “Calm down, Mr. Rong. Let’s chalk it up to the young miss’s youthful ignorance. She will eventually understand the importance of her family.”
The a.s.sistant pondered for a moment and said, “Since Mrs. Ye isn’t willing to help and we can’t find outside support, we can’t afford to wait any longer. Maybe you should consider Madam Rong’s proposal. It’s a decent way out.”
‘w.a.n.g Qing’s suggestion… Something I’d never considered before. But now, I couldn’t delay any longer.’ Rong Tianshi thought.
“But if I agree to that, I’ll lose all my shares in Rong Holdings,” said Rong Tianshi.
“The shares can be returned to you once the collaboration is successful, as Madam Rong said.” The a.s.sistant a.s.sured.
Rong Tianshi furrowed his brows, deep in thought. The a.s.sistant sensed that the deal was almost sealed, and a strange smile flitted across his face.
Meanwhile, on the second floor of Serene Garden. Sheng Jian had just returned to his room and was on a phone call when the door was suddenly kicked open. Standing up, he looked at the intruder. Ye Nanshen, wearing sungla.s.ses, met his gaze with a look of irritation.
“Out.” Ye Nanshen uttered the single word coldly from his throat.
Sheng Jian was puzzled, “Excuse me?”
“Didn’t you hear me? Get out!” Ye Nanshen walked in and glanced at the room’s interior, slightly frowning.
‘I just left for a bit, and someone had already moved the furniture? In what was said to be Leucia’s most luxurious auction house? Pathetic!’ Ye Nanshen cursed inwardly.
Sheng Jian squinted at Ye Nanshen and inquired, “Wearing sungla.s.ses indoors? What are you, blind?”
“Are you insulting me?” Ye Nanshen turned to face Sheng Jian, his eyes glowing with a dangerous excitement from behind the shades.
“I’m not insulting you. I’m stating facts,” Sheng Jian retorted.
But before Sheng Jian could finish, a fist flew into his face.
“Ugh!”
Sheng Jian took a solid hit and fell to the ground. He shouted, “You barbarian! Get off me!”
Infuriated, Sheng Jian struggled to get up. But Ye Nanshen pinned him down and unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks.
At first, Sheng Jian managed to grit his teeth against the pain. But as the a.s.sault continued, he couldn’t hold out any longer and began to scream.
“Master Shen!”
“Master EightyK!”
Two panicked voices burst in from the doorway. Zhuang Ling and two of Sheng Jian’s a.s.sistants rushed in, pulling them apart..
