“You can’t say that,” Liu Yi interrupted him. “If Fang Yao can really invest in Blue Fox, it will be the most beneficial for us. With his financial support, do we still have to be afraid of not being able to win against Xintao? When the time comes, we can even develop other businesses like Xintao did and expand the company.”
Apart from Zhao Xian, everyone else agreed with Liu Yi.
The minority followed the majority. In the end, they followed Chen Jue’s suggestion. However, there was another problem. Fang Yao was usually elusive, and not many people could contact him. How could they invite him?
They all knew that Si Fan had tried to ask Fang Yao for help back then, but after searching for so long, he had not even gotten a glimpse of him. They did not know what method Yin Xun had used to get close to Fang Yao.
Just as they were at a loss, Zhao Xian said, “Old Liu, has your daughter moved out? She hasn’t been home recently.”
Liu Yi replied offhandedly, “That’s right. The little girl has grown up and is starting to get ideas.”
“As far as I know, she seems to have bought a house in a suburban villa, and Fang Yao is also in that area. They’re not far away. Liu Ying and Yin Xun are working together, and Yin Xun and Fang Yao are working together, so Liu Ying might know Fang Yao too. How about this? I’ll leave the task of communicating with Fang Yao to you. Didn’t you agree with this suggestion? You have to show some sincerity,” Zhao Xian said slowly, not giving Liu Yi any room to refuse.
When the others heard that Liu Ying and Fang Yao lived in the same neighborhood, they immediately agreed with Zhao Xian’s suggestion to let Liu Yi handle this matter.
Le An said, “Director Liu, this is for the benefit of all of us, so we will have to trouble you.”
Only then did Liu Yi realize that he had been tricked. Since they already knew that Liu Ying and Fang Yao lived close together, why did they beat around the bush to get him to agree? Why did they not just say it from the start?
These people were waiting for him to agree to this suggestion before saying it. It was too… too much.
Since he had already said this much, Liu Yi had no choice but to agree. “1 can only promise to try. Whether it succeeds or not is none of my business. 1 can’t possibly contact Fang Yao and have to handle the final negotiations by myself, right?”
Le An smiled and said, “You don’t have to worry about that. As long as you can ask Fang Yao to meet us, 1’11 talk to him personally. I guarantee that it will succeed in the end.”
After the meeting ended, Liu Yi looked at the black screen of the computer and felt worried.
When he went to look for Liu Ying last night, Liu Ying’s att.i.tude was already very obvious. She was determined to help Yin Xun, so she would definitely not help him contact Fang Yao. Since that was the case, he could only look for Liu Cheng.
Liu Yi told Liu Cheng about the contents of the meeting. In the end, he said expectantly, “Lil Cheng, you’re usually the closest to your sister. Back then, your sister asked you to help her with the project. You agreed to such a big matter and almost caused disaster for our family. This time, I need you to ask your sister for a favor.”
“How can a father threaten his own child like this?” Liu Cheng complained silently. He did not dare to tell Liu Yi this directly, so he could only agree to look for Liu Ying.
Before he went to look for Liu Ying, he first went to the Fang Corporation to try his luck. As expected, he was not able to see Fang Yao at all. Only then did he go to the villa area to look for Liu Ying, hoping that she would spare him some respect.
However, when he reached the entrance of the neighborhood, he was stopped by the security guard before he could enter.
“I’m sorry, sir. A homeowner specially reminded us not to let you in. If there’s anything, just call her.” The security guard’s tone was cold and emotionless.
No matter how Liu Cheng tried to persuade the guard or to prove that he was Liu Ying’s biological brother, the security guard ignored him and refused to let him in.
He had no choice but to wait for Liu Ying to pa.s.s by the entrance
He waited and waited until his legs were about to go sore. Liu Ying had yet to appear and he could not get through to her on the phone.
When he first left the house, Liu Yi even threatened him that he was not allowed to go home if he could not complete the mission. At this moment, he felt like a pitiful child who had been chased out of the house and was homeless.
After waiting for half a day, Liu Cheng finally saw Liu Ying’s figure, but Liu Ying did not pay attention to him. She pretended not to know him and directly entered the neighborhood.
Liu Cheng tried to chase after him, but he was stopped by the security guard. “Sir, if you insist on breaking in, we have the right to send you to the police station.”
Faced with the threat of the security guard, Liu Cheng finally gave up on the idea of barging in. He sat at the entrance of the district and looked up at the sky. At this moment, it was sunny and there were no dark clouds at all. The sun shone down directly, and the air was so hot that the air a little distorted.
Liu Cheng pondered for a long time and suddenly thought of Qu Lu..
