Chapter 236: Plea
It is easy to catch a cold in the heavy rain and strong wind on a summer night. Just when Wen Yuan was about to fall, a beam of car lights slowly approached from a distance.
Wen Yuan thought she was in a dream and couldn't believe it.
The license plate number was the one Huo Qichen often used. The car door opened and a noble man walked out. He was holding a black umbrella and saw this woman.
Wen Yuan's eyes lit up with a strong fire. She threw away her umbrella, ran over quickly, and hugged the man's waist directly. There was a sob in her voice: "I knew you would come!"
He frowned at the firm tone.
Huo Qichen slowly pulled Wen Yuan's hand away and pushed it in front of her, a suitable distance away. He held the umbrella closer to her and said in a cold voice, "Wen Yuan, I can't do anything about Vanke. I have no obligation to help them. In other words, even though Zhou Liangqi and I have a good relationship, I have no right to ask him to give up this acquisition. Do you understand?"
What's more, his relationship with Zhou Liangqi is not good in private.
He spoke clearly and directly, interrupting Wen Yuan's thoughts.
In fact, Huo Qichen didn't plan to come tonight, but he was not completely heartless. Some things she did to her were too much, so he softened his heart.
Wen Yuan's eyes were filled with pleading. "I understand, but Brother Huo, I remember you once told me that you, too, have a deep respect for traditional media companies. If Vanke were to disappear, I believe few traditional media companies would survive. You've seen the decline now... Can't you lend a hand? Consider it your way of saving our nostalgia."
Huo Qichen had a headache.
Wen Yuan became stubborn and could not be persuaded by reason.
She had just gotten wet, her face was wet, and she couldn't tell whether it was rain or tears.
Huo Qichen didn't give her hope. "The acquisition of Vanke is also the result of the hard work of many people. Let's not even talk about whether I can convince Zhou Liangqi. Even if I can, who will compensate Zhou's losses?"
Wen Yuan grabbed Huo Qichen's hand and said, "I'll tell the board of directors that Vanke will be responsible for all of this. As long as Zhou gives them a way out, Vanke will give way to them no matter where we meet in the future."
The competitive relationship was originally unequal, so Zhou Liangqi probably wouldn't even look at these conditions.
Huo Qi Chen held her hand in his, and was about to pull it away when he felt burned the moment they touched.
Only then did I realize that Wen Yuan might have been standing here for a whole day.
Now that he was here, he couldn't possibly attack a woman who was suffering from a high fever.
He held it tightly and didn't let go. "Go inside and talk."
Cote d'Azur, this is a villa with a very old feel and extraordinary design significance. It has an unbeatable sea view and was once sold at a high price of 800 million at an auction. In the end, no one knows what happened and it was not sold.
The last time Huo Qichen came here, he was with Jian Mo.
The peach tree planted in the yard has grown and is lush and green.
Wen Yuan hadn't been here for a long time. She pushed open the door tremblingly. The settings here were unchanged, but it had been four years since she last came in.
Tears rolled down Wen Yuan's eyes, and her eyes were red. She never thought that one day she would come back here again.
Before she could say anything, she suddenly felt dizzy and fell down.
The man beside him whispered, "Wen Yuan!"
high fever.
When Wen Yuan woke up again, there was a fever-reducing patch on her forehead, a cup of hot water and a few pills next to the bedside table.
She had a brief memory loss and was stunned for a long time. She came to her senses when she saw the man on the balcony making a phone call. She quickly turned over and got out of bed: "Brother Huo, have you thought about it?"
Huo Qichen was slightly startled, then looked at her and gave a short laugh, "You are really persistent."
Without asking about his own health, his first words were about worrying about Vanke.
Huo Qi Chen saw the shadow of Wen Mo in Wen Yuan. Perhaps because they were sisters, they were somewhat similar. They were both persevering and could withstand the test of time in harsh environments without changing their original intentions.
Huo Qi Chen would have some respect for such a character no matter from what perspective.
He pressed the water glass into her hand: "First of all, I didn't promise you to consider it."
"Secondly, you were the one asking me questions just now. Now it's my turn to ask you."
Huo Qichen put his phone aside and put his hands in his pockets. When he got serious, few people could withstand him.
"First, you want Zhou to give up on acquiring Vanke. Even if Vanke survives, it will inevitably continue to be submerged in the current competitive torrent. If my guess is correct, Vanke's situation was not good before. So, how will you respond then?"
Wen Yuan opened her mouth slightly.
"Secondly, even if Zhou lets Vanke go, they might not necessarily forgive you for your kindness. There are many other companies in this industry that might take advantage of you. How will you respond?"
These two questions alone have clearly put the situation before Wen Yuan.
It seems that both of these roads are dead ends.
Wen Yuan was stumped by the question. She wanted to say something, but she felt that her words were not enough to express her meaning.
Huo Qichen did not develop any personal feelings for her and passed by her: "If you can't come up with a solution, I won't help you."
"Brother Huo!" Wen Yuan called out to the man.
As she wished, he did not go out again.
Wen Yuan turned around and stood before Huo Qichen again. Facing his composure, she spoke with a serious demeanor. She seemed to muster up her courage. "Although I haven't figured out a solution yet, as I just told you, Vanke's potential is definitely not as stagnant as it is now. Its prospects are limitless. If it survives, even if it ultimately goes the e-commerce route, the leadership will definitely retain the research position."
Wen Yuan's eyes lit up. "Because of this sentiment, I believe in them and in myself."
It has to be said that Huo Qichen has become numb after dealing with the bloody people and events in recent years, and he hasn't heard the word "emotion" so clearly for a long time.
She tried to sway him, "You agree with this solution, right?"
Huo Qichen smiled. "From what I know, you've just joined Vanke. What made you so reckless as to come to me for mercy? And Zhou Liangqi treats you well, so he probably won't kill you."
"Before I returned home, I completely rejected Liang Qi's feelings, so he probably won't show me mercy... As for Vanke, my father didn't let me stay here, but I insisted. It was a bit of a showdown."
Huo Qichen thought for a moment and said, "I can help you, but on one condition."
"you say!"
"Let the Huo family invest in Vanke." Huo Qichen saw the potential of Vanke and it happened to be a breakthrough point, so he made a profit.
Wen Yuan was stunned. Huo Qichen obviously wanted to take advantage of the situation, but he said it so frankly and made his attitude clear: be led by me or be acquired and annihilated, it's your choice.
