Chapter 400 - Number One Assistant (1/2)
Just some billions!
Words like these could not fall fro, wasn’t it?
It was a whole otherit, however No one would say that she was boasting because 5,000,000,000 was nothing to someone like her who had a net worth of close to 100,000,000,000 Think of it this way - If you had 1,000 in your pocket, would you be willing to spend 5 of it to help soive’, not ‘loan’
She illing to give Xia Lei 5,000,000,000!
A woive aYuyan stood bitterly in the doorway of the private room; she had not left She’d wanted to help Xia Lei too but could not in his time of need The situation earlier was like a splash of cold water to her face Tang Yuyan was from a powerful clan too but the rules of a clan hundreds of years old held all of the clan in a vice Besides, she was just a wo so there was no way she could take 5,000,000,000 out of the Tang sect to help Xia Lei She could never compete with Shentu Tianyin on that front
A wry shter’s pain He knew his daughter liked Xia Lei and that Xia Lei was a perfect future son-in-law - he scored high on politeness, handsomeness, capability, career, tempera Tianlong abruptly realised that his own daughter was no match for this Shentu Tianyin when she showed up in the doorway
A good wooodover him
Xia Lei stood and said with a s here?”
Shentu Tianyin gave hiht smile “Didn’t I say that I wanted to co place I found where you are just by asking” She did not e which had said ‘mortuary’ because she knew that Xia Lei had not been the one to send it
“Neverave a s and I would like to have the dishes you make too”
Was this a public display of affection?
Mu Jianfeng could not take it anymore He had failed to otten involved - where was he to hide his face if he just let Xia Lei walk off like this?
“Miss Shentu” Mu Jianfeng stood too, his face unfriendly “You say you’re going to give Xia Lei 5,000,000,000? Is this true?”
Shentu Tianyin spoke softly, “I would not be the person I am today if not for Xia Lei And if not for Xia Lei, Father would not have the health he has now, much less a peaceful elderly life Xia Lei is dearer than relatives to me He needs help noouldn’t I help hiive him 10,000,000,000 if he needs it”
As she spoke, Shentu Tianyin glanced surreptitiously out of the corner of her eye at Tang Yuyan by the door She was saying these words to Mu Jianfeng, and also to Tang Yuyan This was a declaration of power!
The queen hadYuyan had no counter
Xia Lei was greatly moved by Shentu Tianyin He would have been happy with just her words even if he did not need herscoffed “Think carefully about this, Miss Shentu I can tell you frankly that you doing this is like declaring war upon China Industrial Group and Hanwu Weapons I knohat power you have Your wealth already ranks a the top three of China’s wealthiest and your net worth is close to 100,000,000,000 5,000,000,000 is nothing to you But aren’t you worried about so the shares of Vientaine Group? Afraid of so the source of your wealth?”
This was a bare threat
The rich cannot fight the officials - this was so which had been proven since ancient tier appeared between Shentu Tianyin’s brows She had never challenged high-ranking officials before but if all theoff, she was not a woman as afraid to take the bull by the horns She was a headstrong woman, so hoas she one to be easily scared by words fro?
But just as she was about to retort, Xia Lei pulled her by the hand and said with a laugh, “Tianyin, this is between me and China Industrial Group; you stay out of it I appreciate your kind intentions but I cannot accept your money I, Xia Lei, am not the sort of man ould take money from women You wouldn’t make me into a man like that, would you?”
Shentu Tianyin started to say so, then stopped She was a s reason She knew too that Xia Lei was saying and doing this to protect her and distance her fro that made her heart soften further and her desire to help hiain before Shentu Tianyin could speak “Let’s go No talking about business in the evening Let’s go have dinner I haven’t visited Uncle Ren in a long ti hiht, I’ll follow you”
Only two men in the whole orld could make the queen of Vientaine Group listen - one was Shentu Ren and the other was Xia Lei
Before Xia Lei and Shentu Tianyin left the private roolass from the table and slass shattered and shards flew everywhere
“Xia Lei! I’ve been nice enough to you, and I’ve also pushed the price up to theto throay all pretences and
Xia Lei looked at the angry, hu, and ire laced his words “Director Mu, I’ve already , and that’s final You want to hinder the growth of my military factory but you cannot I have a question for you - You’re al? I a I do rests easy on my conscience I am not the least bit afraid of you!”
“Fine, you’re not afraid, are you?” sneered Mu Jianfeng “Is that Gerirl in your Thunder Horse Military Factory afraid of me then?”
Xia Lei stared blankly Annina was the backbone of Thunder Horse Military Factory, and also his weakness
Ye Kun scoffed “I heard that the Ger for her We definitely wouldn’t say anything but if someone does accidentally let it slip then that German machinist will have to be sent back to Germany What would happen then, I wonder?”
