Chapter 188: Acquiring Small Shares
After Ji Xiangyu left the Ji Family Mansion, he felt something was suspicious. Why would his Dad and Mother transfer their shares to him in advance? Was it really because they were afraid Dad would change his mind and give the shares to Xia Yang?
It didn’t make sense, it wasn’t logical. Dad didn’t seem like the type to go back on his word, so how could he do this?
His mobile phone vibrated in his pocket. Ji Xiangyu answered it. It was Assistant Che calling. “Hello, Assistant Che, what’s up?”
Assistant Che shouted, “Chairman, Director Situ has already convinced Director Bai, and the shares of the small shareholders are also being acquired by a mysterious person one after another. If we don’t act immediately, I’m afraid it will be too late!”
Ji Xiangyu immediately hung up the phone and quickly ran to the parking lot to drive. As soon as he turned the corner after getting in the car, he saw a black Mercedes-Benz drive in. He recognized this car; it was Xia Yang’s car. What was Xia Yang doing at the Ji Family Mansion?
He couldn’t pay attention to anything else and had to drive his car to block Xia Yang’s path. A sharp braking sound filled the parking lot.
Xia Yang, sitting in the back seat, frowned after being stopped and asked Bruce, “Frowning!”
Bruce, wearing large black sunglasses, looked at Ji Xiangyu walking towards them and said, “The Chairman is blocking the way!”
Xia Yang raised an eyebrow. “Oh? Why is Ji Xiangyu back?”
Then, the car window rolled down. Ji Xiangyu leaned his head in and saw Xia Yang sitting in the back seat. “Why are you here?!”
Xia Yang replied playfully, “This is also my home, Young Master Ji. Why can’t I be here?!”
Ever since Ji Xiangyu figured everything out, Xia Yang no longer hid his identity. After all, there wasn’t much difference between hiding it and not hiding it!
Ji Xiangyu sneered in response. “The General Manager is finally admitting his identity? Are you done playing dress-up?”
Xia Yang put down his mobile phone and got out of the car. Standing level with Ji Xiangyu, he said, “Young Master Ji, what I did wasn’t playing dress-up, it was for survival. If it weren’t for that, I would have already died under your Mother’s gunfire!”
Xia Yang expected Ji Xiangyu to be shocked, but he didn’t see any surprise in Ji Xiangyu’s eyes.
Ji Xiangyu apologized, “I apologize on behalf of my Mother. Let the past be the past!”
Xia Yang sneered and approached Ji Xiangyu. “If it were you, would you consider that the past? This is just the beginning. I must have revenge, also for my deceased Mother!”
After speaking, he directly got into the car, and Bruce drove away, avoiding Ji Xiangyu’s car.
Ji Xiangyu stood in place, feeling very depressed. Why did everyone around him live with hatred? Was there nothing else for them to do besides hate?
He felt so powerless, so helpless!
He sped all the way to the hotel. As soon as he entered the office, Assistant Che rushed to meet him, reporting, “Chairman, first, you need to personally visit those small shareholders and try to persuade them to sell their shares to you! Second, you need to visit Director Bai’s home. He won’t be coming back to work for the next month; he’s taken a month of sick leave. Try to persuade the Board of Directors not to agree to the resale! The profits from the resale are huge, but the risks are also very high. Finally, Director Situ has already convinced nearly half of the directors, so please act quickly!”
Ji Xiangyu listened with a frown and instructed, “Prepare the car. We’ll head to Director Bai’s home shortly!”
Assistant Che nodded and immediately went out to prepare!
Ji Xiangyu dialed the phone. The other side answered quickly, but the voice was groggy.
“Hello~~~~”
“It’s me!” Hearing Qing Tian’s voice, Ji Xiangyu felt a sense of warmth. His previously clenched heart slowly relaxed.
Qing Tian sat up, pressing her aching head. “Is the hotel okay?”
Ji Xiangyu lied to comfort her. “It’s fine, everything is great. You just rest well at home!”
Again, home! What a distant word, yet it was portrayed so vividly and warmly at this moment!
Qing Tian blushed and hummed into the phone. The two fell into silence, neither willing to hang up.
