"Who are you, Young Master Hu? This old man is too timid to play with you," Yao Aiguo replied sarcastically.

Hu Zeqing sighed and said, "Old Yao, I've suffered a lot for our sake lately. I just had some good news and I'm already coming to you. You're being so irresponsible."

Good news?

Upon hearing this, Yao Aiguo straightened up.

That 2 billion loan is definitely a major worry for him now.

This was the only good news he could think of.

He asked tentatively, "What good news could there be?"

Hu Zeqing said in a deep voice, "I had someone remove 1 billion from our loan. Now we only need to repay 1 billion. How about we split it 50/50?"

"Half for each of us? 500 million? That's no small sum," Yao Aiguo exclaimed in surprise.

At this moment, his heart was far from calm; he was even somewhat agitated.

If it's only 500 million, then he can barely accept it.

However, as the saying goes, "no businessman is without guile," and he wanted to repay even less.

How could Hu Zeqing not know what he was thinking? He couldn't help but snort coldly.

"Old Yao, I've done more than enough. If you're still not satisfied, I'll have to let it go. After all, you're the one who borrowed that 2 billion..."

Upon hearing this, Yao Aiguo immediately chuckled and said, "Young Master Zeqing, I'm just happy, I didn't mean anything else."

The reason he was able to be manipulated by Hu Zeqing was because of this incident.

Well, 500 million is fine. He's just avoiding a bigger disaster by paying a small price.

He didn't believe that someone who dared to release 2 billion would be a kind soul.

He didn't want to die on the way.
