Upon hearing that it was Niu Bijian, that idiot, Shen Bi's face immediately darkened.
He glanced at his wife, whose face also showed displeasure at being interrupted.
Suppressing his anger, Shen Bi raised his voice towards the door and said, "Tell him! I have very important matters to attend to right now. Tell him to come to my office tomorrow during the day to discuss this!"
"Yes, sir." The servant's footsteps went downstairs.
After seeing them off, Shen Bi took a deep breath, trying to recreate the atmosphere.
He loosened the belt of his robe and swayed rhythmically from side to side as he walked towards the bed: "Darling, don't worry about this little incident, we..."
Before he could finish speaking, a heated argument suddenly broke out downstairs!
"Make way! I need to see Sir Shen Bi! It's extremely urgent!"
"Mr. Newbikini, Sir, it's really inconvenient for you..."
"Get out of my way! I'll go find him myself!"
The heavy footsteps, accompanied by Newbikin's signature loud voice, broke through the servants' obstruction and thumped up the stairs leading to the second floor!
"Fuck! Bastard!"
Shen Bi cursed under his breath, his face turning ashen.
Knowing that Niu Bijian was about to burst in, he hurriedly and frantically re-fastened the belt of his bathrobe.
His wife quickly covered herself with the blanket, her face filled with shame, anger, and helplessness.
“Darling, I…I’m so sorry, that idiot Newbie…he was so rude.”
Shen Bi looked at his wife, and apologized, both angry and anxious.
"Go quickly! Get him out of here!"
His wife lowered her voice, her tone tinged with anger.
With a face full of apology, Shen Bi quickly kissed his wife's forehead and said, "Wait for me, I'll be back soon."
He composed himself, then angrily flung open the bedroom door.
They bumped right into Niu Bijian, who had just rushed up the stairs.
When Niu Bijian saw Shen Bi, his eyes lit up. He completely ignored Shen Bi's gloomy face and slightly disheveled robe, and excitedly shouted, "Peter! Did you see the news?! Asia Television's news! Land! Kobayashi Tenno, that madman, is finished!"
When Shen Bi saw Niu Bijian gesticulating wildly like a comical monkey, he felt a surge of anger rising to his head.
He struggled to maintain his composure, saying coldly, "Mr. Newbikin! I already had the servants tell you that I don't have time right now! I'm resting! If you have something to say, come to my office tomorrow!"
"Rest? How can you sleep at a time like this?! Kobayashi Tenmoku just confessed on TV! He's staked all of Hongkong Land's capital on the mainland! Tomorrow when the market opens, Hongkong Land's stock price will definitely crash! A complete collapse! Do you understand?!"
Peter! Kobayashi Tenmoku must have mortgaged a huge amount of Hongkong Land shares at your HSBC, right? How much are those shares worth now?
I'm doing this out of kindness, I came all this way to remind you! Hurry! Immediately! Right now! Have Kobayashi Tenno provide additional collateral! Or immediately repay part of the loan ahead of schedule! Otherwise, if Jardine Matheson's share price drops another halved, HSBC's losses will be immeasurable! Your shareholders will eat you alive!"
Looking at Niu Bijian's eagerness to claim credit, and his seemingly pontificating manner as if he were instructing him on how to do things, Shen Bi's temples throbbed.
He struggled to suppress the urge to throw a punch, and forced out a voice through gritted teeth, "Okay! I understand! Thank you for your 'kind' reminder! Now, do you have anything else to say? If not, please leave my house immediately! I'm going to sleep!"
"Instead of dealing with this, you're going to sleep?!"
Newbijian was taken aback by the unexpected reaction, then his anger flared even more, and he said with dissatisfaction, "Peter! Have you been bewitched by Kobayashi Tenno?! How come you're not worried at all?!"
How can you not be surprised at all?! You're thinking of sleeping at a time like this?!
You should call now! Immediately! Call that arrogant Japanese brat over to your house!
Make him kneel before you and beg for your forgiveness! Make him offer real gold or silver as collateral!
Dragon Media Group? ATV? What other valuable assets does he own? Pledge them all! Otherwise, as soon as the market opens tomorrow, HSBC will dump all his pledged Hongkong Land shares! Force liquidation! Stop the losses!
Seeing Niu Bijian lecturing him with such an air of superiority, Shen Bi finally lost his temper and roared, "Enough! Niu Bijian! I'm saying this one last time! Now! Is! My! Private! Time! I need to rest! You! Get! Out! of! My! House! Immediately!"
Niu Bijian was stunned for a moment by Shen Bi's sudden outburst of anger, but then an even greater sense of humiliation and anger welled up in his heart.
He pointed at Shen Bi's nose and shouted defiantly:
"Sir Shen Bi! Good! Very good! You've finally shown your true colors! You've been protecting him! Completely protecting that Chinese-Japanese!"
When I first took control of Hongkong Land, the slightest fluctuation in the share price prompted you to urgently pressure me to liquidate my entire stake! To sell at a loss! To sell Hongkong Land to that kid at a bargain price!
And now? The same thing is happening to Kobayashi Tenno, to the people you supported! The stock price has plummeted! The value of the collateral has shrunk drastically!
HSBC is facing huge risks! How can you not be worried at all?! How can you sleep soundly?!
Tell me! What benefits did Kobayashi Tenmoku give you that made you so devoted to protecting him? Or have you, Sir William Sham, long forgotten that you are a subject of the British Empire?
You're helping a Japanese man of Chinese descent, but not us British businessmen! This is betrayal! You're a traitor to the British Empire! I'm going to report you to the Governor of Hong Kong! I'll let everyone know the true face of you, Sumpfong!
