"Uncle Ta, your words are enough. "However, this money is not a small amount. When the time comes …" I had some doubts as I raised my head to look at Tai Feng and said awkwardly.
"That's why I asked you to buy Noah. Noah is a corporation in this city. If you want to take out a bank loan, the procedures will be much easier." With me here, you can rest assured that you can go talk. " Tai Feng said with a smile.
Only then did my worried heart finally relax. After negotiating with Tai Feng, I returned home to sleep comfortably that night. After Tianyi left for the company to talk to Tai Ziqian about the details, I started to prepare for this time's event.
Stealthily taking over a portion of the shares in Xu's Group, this is my first move. Once we establish an investment relationship, I will be able to clearly understand the current assets and operations of the Xu family. I will directly enter the Xu family's internal department to prepare for the next step.
In the past six months, through the operation of Tai Ziqian and I, together with the guidance of Tai Feng, Noah's capital has snowballed. Tai Ziqian's talent in financial investment was not inferior to Tai Feng's, and he was even more accurate than Tai Feng's.
The amount of funds on the company account was rolling higher and higher. With Tai Ziqian, who was a professional and strict specialist, to manage every fund, the results were twice as good.
I have lost track of the numbers that kept rolling. It was no longer money to me, but a game of capital.
We have made a change of the overseas company packaging, involving all aspects of the negotiations have been modified to ensure that Xu Changsheng can survive the investigation.
As for the negotiations, Wu specifically invited his best classmate in the United States, Mark, himself a Wall Street executive and president of our overseas investment company. With his skill and ability, we are not worried that Xu Changsheng will have any doubts.
Everything was going well, and all this time I was working day and night at the company.
At the end of the month, under our secret arrangements, Mark came from the United States with a professional team. They went straight to Xu's Group, signed a high share transfer agreement with Xu Changsheng, and signed a bet with Xu Changsheng.
After the agreement was signed, we directly entered into the Xu family's internal structure and discovered that there were many problems within the Xu family. Although Xu Changsheng had a good sense of business, he knew nothing about capital markets. He didn't know the source of the company's profits at all. His investment projects were also very scattered and they were expanding crazily. Even the financial statements were a mess.
In fact, the teams Mark sent to Xu's Group were arranged by Tai Ziqian and I. In this respect, Tai Ziqian put in a lot of effort and initiated a lot of social relations for me.
Xu Changsheng has already entered into the game of capital set up by us, but he doesn't know how to play with capital. Seated at my desk, Tai Ziqian smiled at the signed agreement and said to me, "Shubei, he probably still doesn't know that all this is a conspiracy. He will definitely be happy to think that his fortune is right in front of him, and then the Xu will go public, and he can enjoy the benefits. "
"Even if he understands, it's useless. He has already signed the contract." I rubbed my sore head and collapsed on my office chair. I was too tired during this period of time. I couldn't help but sigh, "Ziqian, thank you for all the trouble you've gone through. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be able to handle such a complicated matter by myself. "
When Tai Ziqian heard me say that, he beamed with joy and said, "What's there to thank me for? This is just a game for me. I'm happy about it, but I still have to thank you for letting me participate." Seeing Xu Changsheng being played around, I'm so happy! "
"I feel that our cooperation is really very well coordinated. If everything goes according to plan, and the Xu family succeeds in seizing me in their hands, and you're still accompanying me, making the Xu strong, is that alright?" I asked, smiling.
During the past six months, we have been working very well together. I have to say, this is the best partner I've met since I started working. I knew that even if my plan were to succeed in the future and I could successfully take control of the Xu family, I would still need his help. Without him, my path forward would have met with great resistance.
"Relax, I will always be there if you always need me." Then he stood up from his chair, stretched, and laughed teasingly. "Since I'm so important, then after this period of work is over, would you like to reward me for being a good employee?"
Ziqian, we are partners in this business, "I said with a smile, and stood up from my chair." I heard that the Hot Springs Resort at the foot of Phoenix Mountain is open for business.
"Hot springs? Do you and I want to bathe together? " Tai Ziqian's eyes lit up and he asked while smiling mischievously.
"You wish! To prevent you from having such evil intentions, I've already informed Yiwa. The three of us will go together!" I said, smiling.
"If I want to do something to you, do I have to wait until the hot spring? "For so long, you and I have spent more time together than husband and wife!" Tai Ziqian smiled, patted my head lovingly and said, "Alright, I'll go home and take a nap first. You can call me tomorrow morning before you leave and I'll drive you guys there. As for the treat … I don't need that money, so don't worry about it! "
"Ziqian, how can this work …" Before I could finish, he was floating out of my office.
The faint scent of his perfume still lingered in the air. I couldn't help but shake my head as I smiled to myself. I packed up my things and returned home.
It's been a long time since I've had a normal commute. I can finally get a normal commute today. The moment I parked the car and pushed open the door, I heard Zaizai's extremely cheerful laughter and Nanny Liu's voice coming from the living room.
When I heard Zaizai's clear laughter, I couldn't help but laugh along with him. My heavy mood suddenly became a lot more relaxed.
I quickly kicked off my heels and walked towards the living room. When I walked into the living room, the scene in the living room left me dumbfounded.
I didn't expect Wu to be in the living room. He was wearing his usual white T-shirt and black shorts and was riding a wooden horse with Zaizai on his head. Zaizai was sitting on his shoulder and giggling happily.
The clothes on Zaizai's body were exactly the same as the one on Sheng Yun's body. The father and son pair were so inextricably linked, yet they looked so harmonious. Even though Zaizai's face was covered in baby fat, but there was already the shadow of Sheng Yun. He excitedly patted Sheng Yun's head. A child doesn't know how to weigh the importance, so I guessed that it must hurt a lot.
This scene was so touching that when I stood at the entrance, I actually didn't want to disturb him. I watched in silence as Sheng Yun took Zaizai around the living room, then carried him down from the top of his head, lifting him over and over with his hands, and finally, exhausted, laid him down on the floor on the dance floor. He wiped the sweat from his face with his hand, and with a heartfelt smile, he asked Nanny Liu, "Auntie, call Shubei and ask when she's coming home, and I'm almost ready to leave so she won't find out."
"Yun, Shubei has been working late recently, and sometimes she works all night. She's working too hard for her career." You should go see her when you have time. Her company is here... " Nanny Liu said.
Neither of them noticed my existence, but Zaizai suddenly noticed me with his sharp eyes. He pouted his small mouth, pointed in my direction and shouted, "Mom!" Then, he tried to crawl over from the ground.
It was only after Zaizai shouted that the two of them realized that I had already returned home. Nanny Liu hurriedly dusted off her clothes and stood up. With some unease, she said, "Shubei, Yun just happened to pass by, so …"
"Auntie, it's fine. Go and cook in the kitchen first." Make a few more dishes tonight, and I'll be back later to help you. " I said to Nanny Liu wit
h a smile. I knew that she must have been afraid that I would blame her for letting Sheng Yun into the house.
"Hey hey!" Good! I'm going! Yun, don't go tonight! "Stay here!" Nanny Liu said to Sheng Yun with a smile, and then she moved quickly into the kitchen.
"Why did you come back so early today?" he asked, standing there looking at me, the joy on his face now replaced by calm.
"I've been too busy recently. Have you been staying here with Zaizai?" I put down my bag, walked over and picked Zaizai up in my arms. All of a sudden, his head felt dizzy, and he fell down shakily …
CHAPTER 207 - FAREWELL(1)
Subconsciously, I still knew that Zaizai was in my arms. I desperately tried to keep my balance, but probably due to the intense work these days, my body was exhausted and I fell down uncontrollably. I felt someone grab Zaizai from my arms and I fell heavily onto the ground …
When I woke again it was dark, and I was lying in my room, the curtains open, the white curtains fluttering in the wind, the yellow bedside lamp in the room giving off a faint glow, my head still aching, my mouth a little bitter.
I was thirsty and tried to call Nanny Liu, but no one answered me. Thus, I got up and walked towards the living room.
There was a strong smell of soup in the living room. With the light on in the kitchen, I dragged my slippers slowly to the kitchen door. I pushed it open and shouted, "Nanny Liu!"
Unexpectedly, the person standing in the kitchen wasn't Nanny Liu, but Sheng Yun.
He was wearing my apron, and was standing in the kitchen with a pot of soup. When I called out to him, he turned his head and saw that it was me. Are you feeling better? "
"Where's Nanny Liu and Zaizai?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Zaizai is asleep, and Nanny Liu is feeling a bit uncomfortable too. I let her rest early." I'm making you medicine. " He helped me into the living room and sat me down on the couch.
The moment he wanted to kneel down and take off my shoes, I stopped him. "No, I'll do it myself."
I quickly kicked off my slippers and lay down on the sofa. "Would you please pour me a glass of water?" I asked. There seems to be a fire in my throat, and it's very dry. "
"Alright." He poured me a glass of warm water and held it up to my mouth. He wanted to feed me, but I insisted on drinking from it.
Sensing the coldness in my manner, he sat back on the other side of the table and asked, "What have you been up to? "Nanny Liu said that you worked overtime and you're out of energy. You had a low fever just now, so I fed you some medicine. Are you feeling better now?"
"My head is still dizzy and my mouth is bitter. I feel like vomiting." I said honestly.
When he heard me say this, he walked over nervously and put his hand on my head, saying, "It's not hot anymore, or should we take more body temperature? When you fainted just now, Nanny Liu and I were frightened. "
"Is Zaizai alright?" I remember I was still holding him when I fainted. " When I heard him say that, I couldn't help but think back to the time before I fainted, so I quickly asked.
"Zaizai is fine, I got him. "Because I caught Zaizai, I wasn't able to support you. You fell to the ground, is your hand still painful?" He took my arm and squeezed it again.
When he looked down, I saw the dark circles around his eyes, and the weariness on his face was unbearable. But I pushed his hand away.
I said flatly, "I'm fine. You can sleep in the guest room at night. My head is still aching, so I'll head back to my room to sleep first. "
"You can go. I'll boil some medicine for you. The doctor said that this medicinal herb is precious, and it will take a long time for the medicinal herb to boil. It might be tomorrow morning soon." You go to sleep first. When the medicine is ready, I'll bring it to you. " Sheng Yun said to me.
"No need, I'll sleep for a while. I'll be fine tomorrow. You should get some rest. " I heard him say that, so I said.
"Shubei, can I do more for you?" He suddenly raised his head and looked at me with a serious gaze. Perhaps it was because this silent night had finally made him want to pour out his heart, his voice suddenly softened. "I miss you. I really miss you."
I was stunned for a moment. I immediately saw his affectionate gaze and was afraid that if I continued to look at it, I would sink deep into his body. Thus, I quickly averted my gaze and lightly said, "I understand. You should go to bed quickly. It's fine if you don't want to eat the medicine, but it's fine if you don't want to.
"You know, that's all?" His voice suddenly became colder. He pulled my head over his head and forced me to look directly into his eyes. He slowly asked, "Shubei, what's wrong with you now?"
"I'm tired, I'm going back to my room to rest." I'm afraid that if this goes on, I'll go back in time. Thus, I pushed his hand away and quickly stood up.
Maybe I hurt him with my coldness, but he stood up too, and I could feel the chill coming off of him.
I turned around and walked towards the bedroom. I heard him give a long sigh behind me, then he said softly, "Xu Shubei, it seems …" It's my fault for being sentimental. "
I stopped and didn't look back. "For me, some things have changed," I said calmly.
"Xu Shubei, can you really do it?" he growled behind me, his voice thick.
"I can do it." "Yes," I replied softly, my heart pounding.
"Alright!" I heard him grind his teeth and spit out a word.
At that moment, I wanted to turn around and throw myself into his arms and tell him, No, I can do it.
But I had to force myself, I had to do it. I knew that once my heart had softened, everything would return to its former self. But I don't want to. I would rather continue on with my hard shell on my back than turn into a little woman in his arms at this critical moment.
What I need now is not to be protected, but to constantly arm and strengthen myself. That way, I wouldn't have to give up halfway.
If he wanted to succeed, it meant that he had to let go of a lot of things. Women are more emotional than men, so I have to force myself to be rational. Don't lose your head because of love before you take down the Xu family.
"Sheng Yun, I'm sorry, please give me some more time …" I said to him silently in my heart, but what remained of him was a cold and resolute back.
I knew he was still behind me, but I had no intention of turning back. Because I was afraid that if I turned around, I would instantly destroy all of my will. Sheng Yun, he's hiding on the soft side of my chest, and I have to hide him well. Then I put on my armor and continue to fight like a man in this deceitful mall.
"Xu Shubei, you can do it, I can do it." After a long moment, he said this again.
At that moment, I knew, he must have made up his mind.
"Alright." I clenched my fists and shivered, but I still said the word.
I thought I heard his heartbreak.
He smashed his fist against the coffee table in a broken mood, and it made a muffled sound that made my heart skip a beat.
"So in your heart, I'm so unimportant. Zaizai you want, you want the cause, only can abandon me cold side to me! Even Tai Ziqian can be by your side, but I, you keep forcing me to stay away! " he cried bitterly.
My heart once again felt a sharp pain, but my heart was even more stubborn.
I felt like we were in a great tug of war, and I was already standing on another hill, and we were no longer walking side by side, so we had to walk parallel to each other, and reaching for each other would only make it difficult for us.
Now was the time to bid farewell and make a final decision. I couldn't hesitate, I couldn't back down, I could only continue forward bravely.
This period of love, it was likely that he would completely fail to live up to it. This is really, really hard for me. But I don't want to leave a way out for myself anymore.
I had chosen his boat to help me cross the river, but he had failed me; now that I was at the helm, I clenched my teeth in the wind and the rain, love would not be my oars, it would be my net, and I would have t
o tear it apart.
His heart is really in pain, but when it comes to his mouth, it is even more emphatic and decisive: "Yes, because love is not a necessity, but everything else is. "I gave birth to Zaizai, and I am responsible for him. Without a career, it is meaningless for me to live. As for Tai Ziqian, without him, I would not be here today!"
I know it's very, very heavy. He must have been hurt. But I still said it.
"You're still blaming me! "You're still blaming me for not toppling the Xu family for you, right?" "How do you know I'm not helping you? How do you know I won't help you? I don't like to talk before I do, I thought you understood me! I thought you would understand me! But I was wrong, I was completely wrong! "Xu Shubei, it's only now that I realize how worthless I am in your eyes!"
I involuntarily turned my head and saw his red eyes in the light. He subconsciously took two steps back and looked at me, his eyes filled with unfamiliarity.
"If I could turn back and choose again, I would rather not meet you! Xu Shubei, I thought you were Honey, but I didn't expect you to be Arsenic. " The expression on his face was twisted with pain. As he said this, two streams of tears flowed down his cheeks.
Sheng Yun, he cried …
At that moment, my heart was broken.
I felt as if all the principles of my heart had been broken at that moment, and that something called love had been awakened in me again, and the pot of medicine was still bubbling in the kitchen, and the thick smell of it was wafting out of the kitchen, and I wanted to step forward.
However, he took two more steps back.
"Sheng Yun, I …" I stared at him, my eyes watering as he wept.
He looked at me so coldly that the tears were still on his face and he didn't even wipe them off with his hands. He looked at me and said coldly, "Xu Shubei, I overestimated my place in your heart. I underestimated your ruthlessness. So it turns out that I was right about you from the beginning. You ambitious woman, if you only care about benefits, why did you provoke me? "Why bother to make me fall in love with you?"
