”The current Xu family is no longer as strong as they were before. They are already on the verge of dying. ”There is very little help I can get.” Chu Lingyu said leisurely.

Xu Chencan was at a loss for words.

Chu Lingyu was absolutely right.

Although his father still appeared to be rich and overbearing, the truth was that the Xu family was like a tree on the edge of a cliff, in danger.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have fallen to the extent of exchanging his own daughter for the contract.

However, the Xu Family was already her biggest bargaining chip. Now that he had even rejected her offer, what other opportunities could she possibly have …

Chu Lingyu silently looked at her expression, from the confident look from the start to the stunned look, and then slowly became dispirited.

The corner of his mouth curled up into a smile.

It had been many years since he had seen a woman who could move his heart with a single smile.

Since she came to his doorstep, what reason did he have to refuse her?

Xu Chencan did not know what Chu Lingyu was thinking, but he felt that he was destined to lose today.

Forget it. If worst comes to worst, she would just break off all ties with the Xu Family. Even if she did not have the ability to take revenge, at least she could live a peaceful life.

As she thought of this, she raised her head, and her gaze returned to calmness, ”My apologies, Boss Chu, I was the one who interrupted today's events. ”Goodbye.”

With that, she got up to leave.

Who knew that just as he stood up, Chu Lingyu immediately said: ”Wait a moment.”

Xu Chencan turned to look at him strangely, ”Is there anything else?”

”I haven't said I'd reject your offer.” Chu Lingyu's beautiful peach blossom eyes narrowed into a smile that was not a smile, ”You want to give up on your own?”

Xu Chencan was stunned. She had never been in the business world before, so naturally, she was not as shrewd as Chu Lingyu. However, she also knew that the only reason why trading was possible was because both parties were satisfied.

Chu Lingyu didn't even like the Xu family, but he didn't directly reject her. In that case, what exactly did he want?

She did not sit down, but calmly looked back at Chu Lingyu, ”Director Chu, I do not understand what you mean.”

This woman was much calmer and more rational than before.

Chu Lingyu lightly tapped the table with her fingers, ”You're not telling the truth.”

If she had been ambitious for the Xu family, why would she have gone to become a doctor? There must be something else.

Xu Chencan pursed his lips.

She had not expected that Chu Lingyu would be able to see through her concealment in such a short period of time.

However, she wasn't willing to reveal her grandfather's matter to the outside world. Unless she was one hundred percent sure of success in this matter.

”If Boss Chu is unwilling to help, what's the use in knowing the truth?” Her tone was very light.

Chu Lingyu was stunned for a moment, but immediately raised her eyebrows with interest.

Such a shrewd woman, was she negotiating conditions with him?

”Alright.” He uttered the word lightly, ”I promise you.”

Xu Chencan looked at him in surprise.

”But,” Chu Lingyu said with a meaningful smile, ”I want half of the Xu family's shares.”

What a big appetite, half the shares, this was the same as him becoming the owner of the Xu family.

He wanted to use her, a member of the Xu family, to quietly take the Xu family for himself.
