Chapter 513 Negotiation

Jiang Ruan smiled and said nothing more.

Having worked together for so long, we know each other's personalities very well.

Half an hour later.

Tang Sheng sent a message.

Seeing that he had arrived early, Tang Bai did not go immediately.

The earlier he arrives, the less favorable it will be for his negotiations.

"Take your time talking," Jiang Ruan told him as he was leaving. "It's okay if we can't reach an agreement. I'll have a professional help you negotiate."

Tang Bai smiled slightly: "Okay."

He left after saying that.

When he arrived, Tang Sheng had already been waiting there for more than half an hour. Seeing that he was late, Tang Sheng was very dissatisfied and scolded him: "Don't you have any manners? Making your old man wait here for so long."

"If you can't wait, you can go back." Tang Bai didn't even bother with respectful terms.

"You!" Tang Sheng didn't say the words he was about to say.

He knew very well that Tang Bai was his only child. If he offended him, everything he had would be taken away by the two lineages, and then things would really be bad.

"Let's get down to business." Tang Bai didn't want to waste a single moment. "Have you decided on the shareholding?"

Tang Sheng felt heavy all over: "I can give you some of mine too..."

"All of them," Tang Bai interrupted him.

Tang Sheng tried to defend himself: "Your mother's and my half together already amount to a lot, enough for you to live a life of comfort and security. What do you need so much for?"

"What do you mean by 'do'?" Tang Bai retorted.

Tang Sheng glared at him with a face full of anger.

Tang Bai's words were very straightforward, completely different from those of people negotiating in the business world: "You only have two choices, either give me all the shares you hold, or you manage the Tang family yourself."

Tang Sheng did not speak.

Deep down, he was unwilling to give it.

He knew very well that he had no feelings for Tang Bai, and that he would not get any benefits from giving it to him.

If I don't give it to them, my fate will likely be even worse.

"ten."

"Nine."

"eight."

Tang Bai counted them off one by one.

Tang Sheng hadn't reacted yet: "What?"

Tang Bai said bluntly, "If you haven't made up your mind by the time I count to one, I'm not going to get involved in the Tang family's mess."

"seven."

"six."

As the numbers kept popping up, Tang Sheng's heart was filled with torment.

"three."

"two."

"Alright!" Tang Sheng agreed after weighing the pros and cons. He had originally thought that he could try to negotiate a stalemate to see if he could get more benefits for himself, but now it seemed that he had been thinking too much. "I can give you everything, but I have conditions."

"Go ahead," Tang Bai said, his expression unchanged.

"First, you must bring the Tang Group back to its former glory. Second," Tang Sheng said, looking at Tang Bai, "you must let everyone in the Tang family know that you are cooperating with Jiang Ruan, not being her bodyguard."

"What's wrong with bodyguards?" Tang Bai asked back.

Tang Sheng insisted on this point: "Do you think they would let a bodyguard run the company?"

Tang Bai didn't reply.

It's impossible for him to take control of the company, and he doesn't care what the Tang family thinks.

All he wanted were shares.

Take back Mom's shares.

Thinking of this, Tang Bai paused, suddenly realizing he was very similar to Jiang Ruan. The difference was that his mother had passed away, and his father was a cheating scumbag.

"If you don't agree, then we can just let the Second Clan take these shares." Tang Sheng was very assertive.

"Okay," Tang Bai agreed casually, then asked, "When will the shares be transferred?"

Seeing him like this, Tang Sheng frowned.

Can he really save the Tang family?

"I'm short on time." Tang Bai glanced at his watch, deliberately creating a sense of tension. "If you haven't thought it through, think it through before we talk."

"I'll give you the shares when you save the Tang family," Tang Sheng said seriously. "You have to keep your word."

Tang Bai laughed: "Heh."

Tang Sheng frowned: "What are you laughing at?"

"You've got a really good plan." Tang Bai was always smart, and this kind of low-level trap wouldn't fool him. "Why should I believe you without proof? And why do you think I'll believe you?"

Tang Sheng was taken aback.

Tang Bai stated his purpose directly: "Transfer it to me within three days, sign the paperwork, and once it's done, I'll handle all matters concerning the Tang family."

"Don't even think about it!" Tang Sheng blurted out!

"No way." Tang Bai stood up without any hesitation.

"How do I know if I transfer it to you? Will you keep your promise?" Tang Sheng didn't want the conversation to end there. "What if you take the shares and do nothing? Wouldn't I have done this deal for nothing?"

Tang Bai looked down at him and said, "You can rest assured about that."

“If you don’t trust me, why should I trust you?” Tang Sheng said.

"Just because this company has my mother's hard work, I will definitely manage it well." Tang Bai said this seriously, without a trace of joking in his eyes.

Tang Sheng frowned.

After several arguments.

Tang Sheng had no choice but to agree to give him the shares first.

After all, the Tang Group can no longer afford to drag this out. If it continues, the Tang family will be taken over by the second branch, and the Tang Group will be seized by outsiders.

Everything he had painstakingly built up was gone.

"Come and complete the formalities next Monday." Tang Sheng said this reluctantly, but he had no choice. "The agreement will state that if you cannot bring Tang Group back, the shares will have to be returned to me."

Tang Bai left without saying a word.

Back at the company.

I just sat down.

Mo Mo and Jiang Ruan's gazes fell on him, and they both asked in unison, "How did the talks go?"

"It's about what I expected. If all goes well, I'll complete the share transfer procedures next Monday." Tang Bai was straightforward with them all. "If I really get the shares, I might need to take some time off."

"Please, make yourself at home." Jiang Ruan felt much more relaxed after receiving approval from the shareholders of the Qin Group.

The words had barely left his mouth.

Her phone vibrated twice.

She picked it up to unlock it and saw a message from Qin Luofeng: "[Jiang Ruan, if I did something to wrong you in the past, would you forgive me?]"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ruan immediately understood the purpose of his previous visit to her.

I probably wanted to tell her about my mother's car accident, but I was afraid that she would send them to jail if she found out, so I just chatted with her about other things.

Thinking of this, she pretended not to know anything and replied to him.

Jiang Ruan: [That depends on what you did.]

Qin Luofeng's feelings were mixed when he saw this message.

He knew without even asking that Jiang Ruan would most likely not forgive him.

Too.

After all, it caused my aunt to be in a coma for so many years.

Two buzzing sounds.

I thought it was a new message from Jiang Ruan, but it turned out to be from Qin Muchuan. Although his tone was still bad, it was much better than before.

Qin Muchuan: [Where are you? I need to talk to you. Get back here right now.]

Qin Luofeng's fingertips twitched slightly: [Something came up, I can't reply right now.]

Qin Muchuan was furious when he saw the message. He thought the kid was just throwing a tantrum, but he didn't expect him to actually do it!

The more Qin Muchuan thought about it, the angrier he became.

Eventually, the call reached Huo Sinian.

If he doesn't listen to me, fine, I'll just do it myself!
