She’s Hard to Get - C230 Love has no spare
She followed Ouyang Jue to the police station once more. Originally, they thought that Qin Lang would not only request for a reprieve, but also give them some additional conditions, but they never expected that he would happily sign his name, saying that he would use this money to pay for the losses of these Victim s.
No matter how he thought about it, it didn’t seem normal. Ouyang Jue double-checked several times to confirm that his stocks hadn’t been mortgaged, and he didn’t do anything else. This made him feel even more baffled.
“Why did you suddenly decide to return the shares to me?”
After completing all the agreements, Ouyang Jue could not help but ask Qin Lang this question. All the shares that he had lost in a long time had returned into his hands, and the authority he now held by the board of directors was even greater than before.
He predicted that the TiaoAo Group would be privatized sooner or later. Other than the shares that circulated on the market, no one else could hold a large amount of shares to participate in the company’s decision-making.
“I don’t want to return the shares to you, but someone promised to protect me in front of Chenopan, I must give him face, I think that CEO Ouyang should be able to recognize this person.”
The way Qin Lang looked at Ouyang Jue was extremely strange. It didn’t seem like the unwillingness of someone who had lost, but a look of disdain from someone high up in the sky.
“Who is it?” Ouyang Jue almost blurted out that the person who could say such a thing in front of the Chenopan was definitely above him, but after Ouyang Jue asked this question, he immediately understood who he was.
“CEO Ouyang, I finally understand today that you are most skilled in relying on women to take over your position. In order to get back your company’s shares, you are willing to sacrifice the innocence of a woman. It’s really high.”
Qin Lang sat there laughing, but his words made Ouyang Jue’s hair stand on end. After handing over all the documents to the lawyer, he anxiously dialed Xu Mengyun’s number, hoping that her relationship with Ling Tian would be better, but he did not expect that it was because of him that she was with Ling Tian.
“I’m on a business trip and I’m not in the office. If you have anything to say, wait for me to get back.”
Xu Mengyun guessed the reason when she heard that Qin Lang was willing to sell his shares. Seems like she had intentionally been friendly with Ling Tian during this period of time and made him give up his purchase of the TiaoAo Group, but she did not want to talk to Ouyang Jue about what she had done during this period of time.
“Although Xu’s is not an official shareholder, I will pay you the dividends.”
Xu Mengyun’s calmness caused Ouyang Jue to not know what to say. He opened his mouth, but ultimately did not dare to ask whether or not there was a trade between Xu Mengyun and herself, because she knew that no matter what happened between them, there was no way to restore what he had lost. Thus, he could only give Xu Group more of the money to make up for the guilt in her heart.
“Okay, anyway, I don’t find it troublesome to earn money, so you should just calculate the amount and deposit it in the Xu’s’s account.”
However, the moment she hung up the phone, the corner of her eyes started to moisten. She originally thought that he had completely let go of his feelings for Ouyang Jue, but after experiencing this incident, she finally understood that Ling Tian was simply unable to take Ouyang Jue’s place.
He was indeed very nice to her, but she had hidden a scheming in their relationship, it was not the kind of relationship that a couple should have, it was the kind of relationship that was willing to give in and not ask for anything in return, just like how she treated Ouyang Jue, she would help him settle everything without him even asking for her.
“Why are you crying? It’s rare for you to secretly come on vacation under the banner of handling official matters. Aren’t you happy?”
Ling Tian saw that Xu Mengyun was sitting on the sofa and immediately sat down, he saw that her eyes were already red, and couldn’t help but think of the owner of the phone. The only person who could make Xu Mengyun cry was Ouyang Jue.
He had only brought her out to prevent Xu Mengyun from getting too close with him, but the result was still the same. Any effort he had made, just a phone call from Ouyang Jue was enough to pull her train of thought back to reality.
“See three corporate vacations a day? “Are you trying to take revenge on me for being so busy at home?”
When Xu Mengyun saw Ling Tian, she immediately complained. She had placed her legs on his knees to let him have a good look at her swollen legs. These past few days, they had been marching, and their journey was even more packed than a tour group.
Ling Tian had indeed entered the business circles of the country in an interesting manner, so after his plan to buy Tian Ao failed, he started to look for other businesses in the country. In the past few days, the entire Xu’s and Ling Tian’s companies had been working overtime, going through the two companies that his two bosses liked one by one.
“I’m not going anywhere tomorrow. My feet won’t be able to walk and my eyes will hurt.”
Xu Mengyun leaned on the sofa and closed the documents in her hands, pretending to lean on the sofa and rub her eyes. These few days, her work intensity was indeed even greater than when she was in Xu’s, so this kind of reason was best used.
Ling Tian did not continue asking, and only rubbed her temple slowly, in an unusually gentle manner.
Xu Mengyun was not a person with a high EQ, so the act she showed Ling Tian was easily seen through by this man, but he did not want to expose her at all. In any case, the beauty was not at a disadvantage when she was carrying him, and as for Ouyang Jue, he had plenty of chances to deal with her slowly in the future, so he was not in a hurry.
Ouyang Jue did not know that Ling Tian and Xu Mengyun were travelling together, he had specially asked someone to look for his whereabouts, wanting to find out the true relationship between him and Qin Lang. However, the information that came back to them made them very angry, because Ling Tian was their forbidden land, if he found someone who was investigating him, he would definitely not let them off lightly, so no one dared to take over this job.
“Do your best. Pay attention to your safety.”
Ouyang Jue did not like being controlled, so he wanted to find out Ling Tian’s weakness and counterattack when he wanted to. However, the news he received advised him not to provoke this kind of alligator with a background. Although most of Ling Tian’s resources were in the country, there were still many companies that came to the country with him.
Ouyang Jue had never received such advice before, so he was not in a good mood. However, after what happened today, he didn’t expect to hear a loud bang right after he stepped out of the elevator, and at the same time, a large amount of colored bubbles attacked him.
“Congratulations CEO!”
When Ouyang Jue returned to the company, it was even more lively than during the New Year. Almost all of the company’s upper echelons had come, and they held their ribbons as they blocked the entrance of the stairs, causing Ouyang Jue to almost think that he had entered the wrong building, or that he had encountered a terrorist attack.
“What are you celebrating here? Does the company have any big orders?”
Ouyang Jue looked at these people with a puzzled expression, his tone becoming stern. If it was any other time when they heard Ouyang Jue scold them so harshly, they would have already dashed back to their posts to work, but this celebration was hosted by Ning Caier. So even though Ouyang Jue’s expression was ugly, they still stood there smiling, waiting for the CEO’s order.
“The company didn’t place any big orders, but the share price has already risen and there are hundreds of other media outlets that want to invite you to an interview. Isn’t that something worth celebrating?”
Ning Caier walked out of the crowd wearing a formal attire. Before Ouyang Jue returned, she had already seen the news online, and now, everyone was praising the TiaoAo Group. Especially after the police announced the final results of the liquidation.
Although the experience was bumpy, but the result was the best. The fresh flowers in their room were all sent by the demonstrators, and they said that they had caused trouble for the TiaoAo Group, so they had to express their apologies.
“Indeed, it is worth celebrating. At least we won’t have to wait here for those people to show up after we take back the shares of TianAo.” Seeing Ning Caier walking out, Ouyang Jue’s face finally revealed a trace of a smile. He had the secretary order a restaurant for him, he wanted to celebrate with everyone tonight.
With the special permission of this CEO, the TiaoAo Group was bustling with noise and excitement for the majority of the day. Other than ordering restaurants, Ouyang Jue also prepared gift vouchers and bonuses for everyone to thank them for accompanying Tian Ao through this cold business winter.
Ouyang Jue sat the entire time in the conference room, his eyes staring at the empty seats in the conference room. He knew that the gains today were extremely important, because he had suddenly acquired all three shareholders in the company. Now, other than an uncle who didn’t express an opinion on the matter being in charge of 5% of the shares, the rest of the TiaoAo Group belonged to Ouyang Family.
“Did something happen today? You haven’t spoken since you came back.” Ning Caier brought a cup of coffee in, and she gently placed the cup beside Ouyang Jue. Right now, everyone in TiaoAo Group was boiling with excitement, everyone believed that tomorrow’s share price would soar, so they were all busy buying things.
However, Ouyang Jue’s place was too deserted. His expression was extremely calm, not like he had just completed a huge task like this, but instead like he had just lost a huge business deal. Even Ning Caier was worried and came in to take a look, afraid that the news online was fake.
“It’s just that Qin Lang said something that made me uncomfortable, and the result of a person like him is actually being suspended from jail. There’s no justice in the world.”
Ouyang Jue held the cup of coffee and slowly drank a mouthful. In order to ease his emotions, Ning Caier had added double the amount of milk and sugar into the coffee, but Ouyang Jue still felt that it was bitter, and this bitterness came from his guilt and his lack of strength. When he thought about how everything Sky Ao had now came from the sacrifice of a woman, he couldn’t be happy.
“Qin Lang fought for so long, but in the end he still compromised. Even if he dragged someone into the water, he still wouldn’t obediently end this matter, so I think you don’t need to worry about what he said. It must be a lie.”
Ning Caier hurriedly consoled Ouyang Jue with a few words. She had never fought head on with Qin Lang, but she knew that he would bite people whenever he was forced into a corner. The credibility of his words at this moment was extremely low. Ouyang Jue should understand this, but why does he look so worried? Could it be that Qin Lang’s words were related to Ouyang Jue’s family?
