Anyone could hear the sarcasm in Shen Cheng's words.
So what if Xu Mo is your fiancé?
He still gives all the benefits to the Shen family.
Doesn't your Zhou Family feel slapped in the face?
"Heh... you old fox! In a few days, you'll be the one crying! I wonder if you'll still be able to smile so happily then," Zhou Qiaoqiao thought to herself.
Shen Manni was also pleased inwardly, and calmly asked:
"Chairman Zhou, how much transfer fee does your group intend to offer my Shen Corporation?"
Shen Manni was very concerned about the price!
Shen Cheng was also intrigued. That little lapdog Xu Mo was always hovering around his daughter.
Yet he got nothing in return.
To make his daughter happy, Xu Mo would likely offer the original price, or even below market price to transfer to the Shen family. It wasn't impossible.
Zhou Qiaoqiao held up three slender fingers, "30% above market price!"
"Isn't that price a bit too high?" Shen Manni was the first to speak up!
Shen Cheng was dumbfounded.
Why hadn't Xu Mo played by the usual rules this time?
Shouldn't he continue sucking up to his daughter?
This iron rooster who wouldn't part with a single feather was offering 30% above market price, making him feel extremely displeased!
Shen Cheng thought he must have misheard.
Zhou Qiaoqiao wasn't a bootlicker, and she wasn't about to give this father-daughter duo any face.
Her expression was as cold as frost.
"To be honest, I was quite surprised when Xu Mo said he would give up all of Xu Corporation's Hongtu Shares. What surprised me even more was that he didn't give the Zhou Family priority for transferring the Hongtu Shares, but instead considered your Shen Manni and Shen family first!"
"Your Shen family has received too many favors from the Xu family, to the point where you think all good things are rightfully yours."
"There are so many prominent families in Magic City, why does Xu Mo always think of your Shen family first? Is it because your business capabilities are superior to other families?"
"Is it because your client base is more stable than others? Is it because your operational skills are higher than other families?"
Zhou Qiaoqiao paused, her expression turning cold as she continued word by word:
"It's none of those! It's simply because you, Chairman Shen, gave birth to a devastatingly beautiful daughter! One who has Xu Mo completely infatuated!"
Since they were laying their cards on the table!
They might as well do it sooner rather than later!
Indeed, Zhou Qiaoqiao had long wanted to say these dissatisfied words to the Shen father-daughter duo!
Before hearing their true thoughts.
Zhou Qiaoqiao thought Xu Mo didn't like her.
His attitude towards her was indifferent.
Zhou Qiaoqiao didn't want to keep trying when her efforts weren't appreciated.
Degrading herself.
But that wasn't how Xu Mo really felt.
She came here today to reclaim some interest for her little man!
Regardless of who was the protagonist or the female lead!
Not caring if it was predetermined.
Even if it was predetermined.
She wouldn't fail in her role as the villainous female lead!
The people from Xu Corporation who knew the truth, like Li Ming and others.
Inwardly exclaimed: The boss's woman is impressive!
Directly confronting the old chairman of Shen Corporation on their own turf.
Not giving an inch of face.
But upon careful consideration of Zhou Qiaoqiao's words.
They couldn't find a single flaw.
In fact, Zhou Qiaoqiao wasn't the only one who thought this way.
Other families had the same thoughts as Zhou Qiaoqiao.
The only difference was that even if they knew it in their hearts, they wouldn't dare say it to the Shen father-daughter duo's faces.
Not because they were afraid of offending the Shen family.
But because they were worried these words would reach Xu Mo's ears.
Shen Cheng and Shen Manni's faces alternated between pale and flushed. Especially Shen Manni, who as a woman, had thinner skin.
Having all their secrets exposed.
It made her feel somewhat mortified.
On one hand, taking advantages given by the Xu family.
On the other hand, stringing along Xu Mo, the future heir of the Xu family.
Wasn't this exactly what she was doing?
Shen Manni's face turned slightly red with embarrassment, but she stubbornly defended herself:
"I never asked him to do these things, it was all voluntary on his part!"
Zhou Qiaoqiao: "Playing dumb while knowing full well, are we?"
"Then don't take the benefits your Shen family receives! You can choose not to cooperate on the orders Xu Corporation gives you!"
"I've never seen such shameless people!"
"Forget it, just say if you don't want to buy the Hongtu Shares!"
"Heh... it seems like it's not that you don't want to buy, but that you want to get them for free. There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world. If you don't want them, my Zhou Family will take them all! Li Ming!"
Li Ming was startled for a moment, then quickly stood up, "Yes!"
"Go back and tell Xu Mo truthfully, bring the Hongtu Shares over now. If the Shen family doesn't want them, my Zhou Family will take them," Zhou Qiaoqiao's calm voice rang out.
Li Ming broke out in a cold sweat.
But he still chose to follow Zhou Qiaoqiao's words.
He immediately instructed the legal department of Xu Corporation to bring out the share transfer documents in front of Shen Cheng and Shen Manni.
Shen Cheng was panicking internally: The conditions Xu Mo offered were quite reasonable! Even though it was only 30% more, Xu Corporation held far more Hongtu Shares than they did. Even if they didn't take them, other families were eyeing them hungrily. If the Hongtu Shares fell into the Zhou Family's hands, their position as the third-largest shareholder would be difficult to maintain!
"Chairman Zhou, Chairman Zhou, don't be angry, don't be angry."
"Manni was just speaking out of anger earlier, let's separate business from personal matters."
Zhou Qiaoqiao was also somewhat nervous.
But when Shen Cheng's voice rang out in the conference room.
She finally let out a big sigh of relief.
Zhou Qiaoqiao coldly asked back: "Oh? I thought your Shen family didn't want them?"
"Who said we didn't want them? However much you have, we'll take it all," Shen Cheng said with an awkward smile.
He was an old fox, skilled in the art of knowing when to back down and when to push forward.
Shen Cheng was afraid that Zhou Qiaoqiao would really take all these Hongtu Shares.
He quickly ran to Li Ming's side.
"Manager Li, Xu Mo's words are his bond! You came here with orders to give priority to our Shen family for the Hongtu Shares, not to the Zhou Family!"
Shen Cheng invoked Xu Mo's name.
Li Ming was taken aback, his expression somewhat unnatural as he smiled and said repeatedly: "Of course, of course."
"We'll take these Hongtu Shares! Don't you dare give them to anyone else!" Shen Cheng felt relieved internally.
In fact, everyone in the conference room felt relieved!
Including Shen Manni.
Even if this business deal was thanks to Xu Mo's favor.
But business is business, it's not about emotions!
Several billion in net profit, why not take it if it's offered!
Come to think of it!
That bastard Xu Mo doesn't really like her anyway!
It's all an act, put on for others to see.
Thinking of this, Shen Manni felt irritated.
After that, Zhou Qiaoqiao was left on the sidelines.
Her face black as coal, watching the negotiation and transaction process between the two parties.
It was all an act put on by the female devil.
This negotiation went very smoothly.
After all, both parties' interests aligned.
The legal department of Shen Corporation also reviewed the contract.
After ensuring there were no issues whatsoever.
A stock transaction worth 68 billion was completed in less than an hour!
Zhou Qiaoqiao finally breathed a sigh of relief!
Let's see how your Shen family jumps around now!
The fact that there were problems with Hongtu was true, but before it was exposed, it was a sweet bun, though rotten on the inside.
By the time the Shen father-daughter duo discover this, it will be too late!
So there won't be a situation where too much capital flow causes market turmoil.

esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect?

This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
