Chapter 626 Ally With Me by Marriage
After following Lu Feng out of the anteroom, Song Yunxuan went to the flower hall with him.
Neither of them spoke along the way.
Meanwhile, Tan You who was watching them from behind smiled and turned to look at Gu Changle’s expression.
Undoubtedly, Gu Changle’s face clouded over with anger.
Lu Feng and Song Yunxuan left right in front of Shao Tianze and Gu Changle. It was obvious that Lu Feng chose to side with Song Yunxuan in the fight.
In Lu Feng’s eyes, Gu Changle was no match for Song Yunxuan no matter how confident she was.
Gu Changle was in a sulk. But when she turned to look at Shao Tianze, she found that Shao Tianze didn’t seem to be astonished or angry at all.
Gu Changle frowned, asking, “Lu Feng chose Song Yunxuan. What did he mean by doing that?”
“Didn’t it show that he wanted to support Song Yunxuan?”
Shao Tianze took a long slow breath and then turned around, preparing to leave.
Seeing that Shao Tianze was leaving, Gu Changle asked him anxiously, “Where are you going?”
“To have a word with Yan Jin.”
Shao Tianze had always been clear-headed.
Though it was clear that Lu Feng chose to side with Song Yunxuan, it didn’t mean that Lu Feng’s help would let Song Yunxuan win the fight.
There were many uncertainties. As long as Shao Tianze was alive, he would have plenty of opportunities to turn the tide.
In the main hall, Shao Tianze looked in Yan Jin’s direction.
And he saw that Yan Jin was walking to Tan You.
Seeing that Yan Jin was walking to her, Tan You put the goblet of wine onto the tray holding by a waiter. Then she greeted Yan Jin, “Jin.”
Yan Jin smiled, replying, “Sister Youyou.”
Tan You studied him, saying, “It’s been a while since the last time I saw you. It seems that you’ve grown taller.”
Hearing Tan You and Yan Jin’s conversation, Shao Tianze could tell that their relationship was not normal.
And the two families might be on good terms.
It was just that Shao Tianze didn’t know Yan Jin was a.s.sociated with the Tan Family.
Seeing that Yan Jin walked up to her, Tan You took a goblet of wine from the tray holding by a waiter and handed it to Yan Jin, inviting, “Come, have a drink with me.”
“Well, if you insist.”
Yan Jin took the goblet of wine and took a sip of it.
When Tan You was about to speak to Yan Jin, she noticed that Shao Tianze was walking towards them.
Thus Tan You had to bite back her words and wait for Shao Tianze’s arrival.
Yan Jin noticed that Tan You swallowed her words and someone was coming their way.
Then he turned his head and saw that it was Shao Tianze who was coming over.
The moment Yan Jin saw Shao Tianze, he thought of Song Yunxuan. So he smiled and took the initiative to greet Shao Tianze, “Mr. Shao.”
“Yan Jin.”
Shao Tianze was Yan Jin’s elder, so it was not wrong for him to greet Yan Jin by name.
Yan Jin smiled, saying, “I’ve been wanting to speak to you. But seeing that you were busy talking with others, I chose to wait for the right moment.”
Actually, Yan Jin did not want to speak to Shao Tianze. It was just that he wanted to stay away from Shao Tianze when seeing he was talking to others.
After all, Yan Jin knew Shao Tianze would ask him whether he would side with Song Yunxuan or the Shao Family.
When Shao Tianze came up to them, Tan You did nothing but listened to the conversation between Shao Tianze and Yan Jin.
“How is Mr. Yan Lun doing lately?”
“Well, the same as usual. Neither good nor bad.”
If Yan Jin had told Shao Tianze that his grandpa had been doing well, Shao Tianze would have come over to visit him again and again.
The Yan Family felt sick of seeing Shao Tianze, but they also thought it was inappropriate for them to shut the door on Shao Tianze.
If Yan Jin had said that his grandfather had not been doing well, Shao Tianze would have also come to visit him in the name of caring about the elder.
The Yan Family could not easily turn Shao Tianze down either.
So it was better for Yan Jin to give Shao Tianze an equivocal answer.
In this way, no matter whether Shao Tianze wanted to come to visit or not, the Yan Family could manage it comfortably.
Hearing Yan Jin’s words, Shao Tianze knew that Yan Jin chose his words with care and had come up with a reason to turn him down if he wanted to visit the elder.
Therefore, Shao Tianze said, “I heard that Mr. Yan Lun took the initiative to deliver his property to you?”
Yan Jin smiled, replying, “My grandpa just let me run the company as he has been too busy. When he recovers, I’ll not be in charge.”
Yan Jin knew Shao Tianze very well. He knew that Shao Tianze would curry favor with whoever was in charge of the Yan Family.
But now Shao Tianze didn’t know who called the shots in the Yan Family.
Yan Jin’s answer was irrefutable, and Shao Tianze couldn’t find any flaws.
Shao Tianze didn’t feel like continuing the conversation. Thus after a few civilities, Shao Tianze turned around and left.
After Shao Tianze left, Tan You said, “It seemed that Shao Tianze was sounding you out.”
“For what? What do you think?”
“He was trying to see if you could be in charge of your family.”
Yan Jin smiled, saying, “Now I’m not the decision-maker in my family. After all, my grandpa is still alive, isn’t he?”
“So do you want to be the decision-maker?”
Tan You asked Yan Jin.
Hearing Tan You’s question, Yan Jin smiled, asking Tan You in reply, “What do you think?”
Hearing that, Tan You couldn’t help smiling, “I have no idea.”
Actually, Tan You was lying.
Tan You knew it, but she couldn’t just speak it out.
Yan Jin’s origins remained a mystery. Besides, he had been underappreciated in the Yan Family these years.
Sometimes, Tan You also wondered whether Yan Jin was Yan Lun’s grandson. But as for the Yan Family, it was of small account.
Because no matter whether Yan Jin was Yan Lun’s grandson or not, Yan Jin would be in charge of the Yan Family.
Yan Lun didn’t have any other grandsons, so who else could be in charge of the Yan Family except Yan Jin?
And the Tan Family could partner with the Yan Family, which would be a good thing either way.
Tan You should not interfere with the Yan Family’s secret. As long as it didn’t affect the Tan Family’s interests, Tan You could ignore it.
Tan You made a very thorough a.n.a.lysis of the situation. After finishing her words, Tan You raised her goblet, motioned to Yan Jin, and drank the goblet of wine in one gulp.
Meanwhile, Song Yunxuan was following Lu Feng into the flower hall. Along the way, they did not get down to business.
After a while, they arrived at the flower hall. Just at the moment when Song Yunxuan was about to take the cup of superlative flower tea, Lu Feng said, “Now you and Shao Tianze are fighting for shares, right?”
“Now everyone in Yuncheng knows it.”
Song Yunxuan planned to turn the Shao enterprise which belonged to Shao Tianze into her own property.
Everyone in Yuncheng knew that and was clear about that.
Lu Feng asked while knowing the answer.
Hearing Song Yunxuan’s reply, Lu Feng pondered for a moment, saying, “Today, I chose to stay with you. Does it show that I side with you?”
“Yes, if you think like that.”
Song Yunxuan had no objection to Lu Feng siding with her at all.
After all, Lu Feng’s support would help her achieve her goal more easily.
Hearing Song Yunxuan’s reply, Lu Feng pondered for a moment and then tilted his head, asking Song Yunxuan smilingly, “If I side with you, how will you repay me?”
“In what aspect do you refer to?”
Song Yunxuan asked Lu Feng.
Actually, Song Yunxuan knew what Lu Feng wanted.
No businessman didn’t value interests.
Lu Feng would not choose to side with her and help her to beat Shao Tianze unconditionally.
Song Yunxuan had already prepared for the negotiation with Lu Feng. She was quite aware of what bargaining chips she had and what bargaining chips she could use to get Lu Feng’s help.
“Could you guess what aspects I refer to?”
Lu Feng was in the mood. Instead of telling Song Yunxuan what he wanted, he let her guess.
After pondering for a moment, Song Yunxuan replied, “Twenty percent?”
Lu Feng slightly raised his eyebrows, seeming that he understood Song Yunxuan’s words. But he still asked to confirm, “You mean twenty percent of the Song enterprise or the Shao enterprise?”
“The Shao enterprise. For five years.”
Looking at Song Yunxuan, Lu Feng curled up his lips, “After you take charge of the Shao enterprise, you will give me twenty percent of the profit in the first five years. But what will I get after five years?”
Actually, Lu Feng felt satisfied when Song Yunxuan said that he could get twenty percent.
When Gu Changge was alive, Twenty percent of the profit of enterprises like the Shao enterprise was astronomical.
Even though Gu Changge had died and the Gu’s had turned into Shao’s and was run by Shao Tianze, it was still a big cake.
Shao’s twenty percent of the profit was not a small amount.
Judging from the offer Song Yunxuan made, she was sincere.
But even though the twenty percent of the profit made Lu Feng interested, it was not something Lu Feng really wanted.
“I don’t want the profit.”
As soon as Song Yunxuan heard that, she slightly frowned, asking, “What? You mean twenty percent isn’t enough?”
“No, it’s not a small amount. But I don’t lack money now.” Looking at Song Yunxuan, Lu Feng said in earnest.
Song Yunxuan slightly pressed her lips, asking, “So what do you need?”
In business, only if one offered the other what he needed could they establish a stable relationship.
As Lu Feng said that he didn’t lack money, Song Yunxuan was eager to know what Lu Feng needed.
Hearing Song Yunxuan’s question, Lu Feng smiled and looked at Song Yunxuan, answering, “A wife.”
Song Yunxuan frowned, replying, “I’m afraid I can’t help you with that.”
“How do you know you can’t help me without even giving it a try?”
“I really can’t help you with that.”
“You can ally with me by marriage.”
Lu Feng came straight to the point.
