Chapter 81
But without Xue Xiaochen's permission, Pei Qing and Kang Lening would have no chance of entering.
Fortunately, at this moment, someone quietly pulled them from behind.
It was a woman in a maid outfit.
She made a "hush" gesture to them and led them in through the side door.
Although Kang Lening's surname is Kang, he did not grow up in the Kang family, so he doesn't know much about the Kang family.
So when I saw a figure suddenly appear on the wall next to me, I almost jumped up in fright.
But soon, he realized that the person in front of him was the one Xue Xiaochen asked to lead them in.
After entering, the woman looked at them and said, "Miss Xue is arguing with the old man on the first floor. I brought you in because she said you already have a drafted contract in your hand, right?"
Pei Qing looked at her, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded, "Yes."
"Then go ahead." The woman pushed open the side door on the first floor for them.
In front is where Xue Xiaochen is.
Pei Qing glanced ahead, then took a deep breath and walked forward holding the contract in his arms.
Kang Lening only took a few steps, then stopped and leaned against the wall with his arms crossed.
"Aren't you going?" The servant couldn't help but feel curious when he saw him like this.
"Me?" The young man smiled. "Why would I go? When she needs me, that woman will call me over without mercy. Since she didn't call me, it means she doesn't need me now. So why would I go over?"
“…”
Pei Qing walked in and stood quietly behind Xue Xiaochen.
Her appearance instantly attracted a lot of attention.
Many people were looking at her openly or secretly, as if they wanted to see something from her.
Pei Qing didn't really care about the looks of these people.
Xue Xiaochen and Mr. Kang sat on opposite sides. There were many people at the round table, most of whom were prominent figures in the Kang family.
The younger generation I saw just now has probably been sent to his room.
The old man heard the sound and looked up at her. "I didn't expect your wings to be so full now?"
Hearing this, Xue Xiaochen shrugged and said, "Grandfather, I think you misunderstood. Besides, you are not qualified to negotiate with me right now."
As she spoke, she stood up and stretched out her hand. Pei Qing very tactfully placed the contract in his arms in her hand.
Then, the woman placed the contract on the table and slid it hard, and the contract stopped directly in front of the old man.
"Grandfather, you can take a look at this contract with your sons. If there are no problems, just sign it and I can guarantee your living expenses in your later years. Otherwise... everything will be uncertain."
As she spoke, her expression became half-smile, as if she was threatening him.
The old man had been adept in the business world for many years, so he could naturally hear some of the deeper meaning in her words.
"So, are you threatening me?" the old man sneered.
"Look, what are you saying, Grandfather?" the woman laughed. "How could I possibly be threatening you? Isn't this just a simple thought from a junior generation, asking for your opinion?"
"Hmph, tell me, how many tricks do you have left? Bring them all out so you don't have any other excuses later."
"Why don't you take a guess? How many tricks do I have?" Xue Xiaochen smiled.
"I guess there is some kind of fund contract with the little girl from the Qiao family?" The old man did not look at the contract, but picked up the teacup on the table, gently stirred the surface of the tea with the cup lid, and then blew it slowly. Suddenly, a burst of tea fragrance came to his face.
"Yes." The woman admitted readily.
Hearing this, Pei Qing couldn't help but look at her.
She knew a lot about Qiao Ye, including this fund contract.
She even read the contract.
This contract was signed between Qiao Ye and Xue Xiaochen when he returned to China last time.
She was wondering why they signed such a strange contract. Didn't she expect that the contract was prepared for today?
Thinking of this, her back began to feel cold.
That contract could be said to have transferred most of Kang's assets to the foundation founded by Qiao Ye. Once Kang discovered this, Xue Xiaochen would be doomed.
Even criminal prosecution.
With so many transfers to make, Qiao took the risk and borrowed 30 million US dollars from the bank, lending it to Xue Xiaochen to fill the temporary gap.
And this was just the tip of the iceberg of what they had done before. Qiao Ye's logistics company was doing various international trade businesses in Country M and was better able to observe international trends. Therefore, she relied on this to conceal the matter for Xue Xiaochen.
Even the other party was not discovered for a whole year.
But now, this matter has been exposed by Mr. Kang, which means that the old man already knows most of the content.
But Xue Xiaochen didn't seem afraid at all.
Well, what's so scary about her?
If this negotiation fails, the entire Kang family will be hollowed out and may even withdraw from the stage of Beijing.
What the capital city lacks the least is talented and ambitious businessmen.
Their piece of the pie will soon be divided up.
Qiao can also use this fund to repay her 30 million loan from the bank and even make some money.
If the negotiations are successful, it would be even better. Kang's company will expand its international business circle, and all the revenue from the international business circle can be used to repay Qiao Ye's loan.
In this matter, the only winners are Qiao Ye and Xue Xiaochen.
But their behavior is also very risky.
It can even be said that if they make a wrong move, they will be doomed.
With such courage and ambition, it's no wonder that the two of them can get along well.
One has the ability to empty Kang's company, and the other has the ability to borrow 30 million from the bank.
"Hehe..." The old man slowly finished the tea in his cup and smiled helplessly, "You young people are so arrogant and reckless. You are just like me back then."
"So, Grandfather, what is your choice?"
“…” The old man leaned back in his chair, tapping the table with his aged hands, as if he was thinking about something.
However, he did not answer Xue Xiaochen's question, but asked another question, "I heard that the little girl from the Qiao family has been involved in the incident in Country M recently?"
This question made Pei Qing's heart sink instantly.
The fact that he could ask this question shows that he already knows more.
"I'm sorry, grandpa, I'm not with Aye, so I'm not very clear about what she is doing or where she is now." The woman said lightly.
He doesn't seem to care about these things at all.
"Oh, really?" The old man nodded. "I remember you majored in mathematics in college, Xiaochen? So, if she died in the recent events in Country M, what is the probability of this happening?"
The woman slowly raised her head and looked at him.
This question made everyone present feel a pang of fear, and a bad feeling arose.
Especially Pei Qing, she subconsciously wanted to speak.
But the corner of her clothes was grabbed by Xue Xiaochen's hand below, preventing her from saying anything next.
Only then did her mind calm down.
It is very likely that the old man said this deliberately in order to make her vulnerable.
Her heart instantly turned cold.
I never expected that there was such a meaning behind this.
Xue Xiaochen's game was flawless, but she had no experience in playing games with these people, so it was inevitable that she would be led by the other party.
Thinking of this, she calmed down.
I just lowered my head and tried my best not to let the other person notice my emotional fluctuations.
The old man kept his eyes on her, and was obviously disappointed when he saw that she calmed down in the moment of impulse.
"If you want me to give you a mathematical answer, of course I can. The probability of her being alive is only fifty percent. After all, there are only two possibilities: either she is alive or she is dead."
"Have you really never considered what would happen if she died? You two are playing such a big game, aren't you just putting your entire fortune on the line?"
"But we won the bet, didn't we?" Xue Xiaochen said with a smile.
Hearing this, the old man looked up at her, then stretched out his hand, and the servant tactfully handed him a pen.
Seeing his actions, several grown men were so anxious that they almost lost their voices. "Father, you can't sign this name... Isn't this just giving our Kang family's things to outsiders?"
But the old man just paused, then signed his name on the contract.
The majestic and powerful characters written in a vigorous and majestic style fully demonstrate the last dance of this once powerful old man.
"If you had any sense, how could you not notice anything unusual when she emptied the Kang Group?"
He said coldly, then put down his pen and looked at the woman in front of him, "I have many sons, but only one daughter, your mother. It's a pity that she is love-brained and insisted on marrying your father. I originally thought that after I died, I would donate the entire Kang family, but now, you have made me look at you with new eyes."
"Thank you for your affirmation, Grandfather." Xue Xiaochen accepted the old man's praise with a smile, "But I think that I may not be the only one with your talent and talent."
As she spoke, she looked at Kang Lening who was standing not far away, "Come out, it's time for you to recognize your ancestors."
Her words attracted everyone's attention.
Then, the young man walked in front of everyone in a nonchalant manner.
He took off his oversized hat and the sunglasses that covered half of his face, revealing a face that bore an 80% resemblance to Kang Lao Er. "Everyone, good evening. Please allow me to introduce myself. My last name is Kang, too. My name is Kang Lening."
As soon as these words came out, the scene fell silent instantly.
Not for anything else, just because of this face and this name.
The vast majority of people present were old employees of Kang Corporation. Even if they knew a lot about those old stories, they had at least heard of them.
Especially the incident when Kang Laoer almost caused the old man to kick him out of the house.
Judging from the young man in front of him, he was probably the illegitimate child who had "died".
Everyone had different expressions, but most people were just watching the show.
After all, it’s a bloody drama about a wealthy family, and it’s better to watch it less and less.
The old man's face was not very good either. He glanced directly at the butler standing next to him.
The butler understood.
Soon, only the Kang family members were left in the entire Kang family mansion.
Pei Qing was also driven out.
But she didn't mind it. On the contrary, all that came to her mind was the question that Mr. Kang had just asked.
What if Joe died too?
