Chapter 205 (1/2)

Cheng Anya allowed the doctor to propose a solution that would allow a quicker and more robust recovery. Her leg had remained injured for too long!

It was about time she started to walk!

Her rehabilitation session this week was twice as frequent as the previous weeks. In spite of the marketplace battles, her leg had recovered comparably.

The more intensive rehabilitation regimen was not particularly arduous but time-consuming. Since her leg had largely recovered and she could walk without a crutch for an extended period of time, she was still a few days from completely recovering as she could not stand for prolonged periods.

Rehabilitation, X-ray, check-ups, waiting for reports… All these consumed time amidst the fierce commercial war. Cheng Anya was very anxious.

Yun Enterprise, in conjunction with Yao Hua, was stronger than MBS and MBS’ outlook did not seem optimistic. Although Third Young Master Ye was slightly disadvantaged and both parties seem equally matched, anyone who lost their cool would be permanently disadvantaged.

As the fight was not merely between Third Young Master Ye and Yang Zekun, it was still a corporate battle that would accelerate the eroding of Third Young Master Ye should MBS seem to be on the losing end as the market’s confidence in MBS was lacking.

MBS’ cash flow, which was already substantially drained, plunged it into an unprecedented financial crisis.

As Third Young Master Ye’s secretary, Cheng Anya would see a perpetually worried manager of the financial department whenever he delivered his report. Said manager was a veteran employee who took a lot of pride in MBS. His worried look, even if Third Young Master Ye mentioned nothing about it, implied severity of the situation that Cheng Anya knew.

MBS’ accounts were segregated into those in the public domain and the ‘black accounts’. The accounts in the public domain were for public consumption, whilst the ‘black accounts’ were hidden and specially managed. The latter had always been providing MBS its capital flow.

But Old Master Ye had made the first move and transferred the funds to Louis in exchange for a diamond deal. As funds for the Repulse Bay project were in dire shortage, the project almost ground to a halt. Yang Zekun was eyeing the project and hoping to seize it from Third Young Master Ye.

The Northern Steel and Repulse Bay projects were tendered one after another, and Third Young Master Ye and Yang Zekun had exchanged blows over the tendering of the Northern Steel project. Somehow, the winning bid for the project was leaked and Third Young Master Ye started bidding on the Repulse Bay project once he received said insider information. He decisively pa.s.sed over the Northern Steel project and focused on the Repulse Bay project.

To shoulder both ma.s.sive projects would take a ma.s.sive strain and present an exponential risk increment to both MBS and Yao Hua. Neither Third Young Master Ye nor Yang Zekun could win both the Northern Steel and Repulse Bay projects.

One project to each was the best solution.

With a shortage of funds for the Repulse Bay project, Third Young Master Ye not being able to solve that would mean not only the transfer of the project but the payment of ma.s.sive liquidation damages as well. The latter was more than sufficient to bankrupt MBS.

Yang Zekun’s goal was to seize the project from Third Young Master Ye. With the Yun Enterprise supporting him, he had sufficient funds and a mature construction team. The hard conditions were all met!

To strike one in his period of weakness—that was a substantially sinister move.

Cheng Anya did not mention anything. Maybe as what Yang Zekun had said, this was the marketplace and the only chance for him to pull down Third Young Master Ye!

Both of them, from the start, were already on a scale. Neither of them was that bit heavier or lighter than the other. If Yang Zekun could defeat Third Young Master Ye, that would be such an ebullient situation!

That would prove that he was stronger than Third Young Master Ye!

To a man, his family, gains, and achievements were at stake!

In this commercial war, how many unseen hands were strangling Ye Chen’s neck?

Yang Zekun, Old Master Yang, Louis, Old Master Ye, Old Master Yun… Although they had different objectives, they all wanted to see the same outcome!

She just did not understand how Third Young Master Ye’s delicate features and somewhat a.s.shole of a character could invite so much envy and hate. Unless somebody really wanted him out of the game for good, why pulled off such a ma.s.sive action?

Her worst nightmare was that these people were united against Third Young Master Ye!
