Chapter 141 First Courtesy, Then Force



Huang Residence

"Uncle Huang, I'm sorry, something came up and I'm a little late!"

"Hey, we're all family, no need to be so polite," Huang Dongsheng waved his hand dismissively, then warmly invited the man to sit down. "The alcohol has already sobered up, we've been waiting for you to come over!"

Xu Yanshu nodded and readily sat down at the dining table.

Seeing that the other party already had it, he also picked up the wine glass beside him, swirled it habitually, and then tilted his head back to take a sip.

"Yes, it's really good," Huang Dongsheng nodded approvingly, then looked up at Xu Yanshu, "What do you think, Yanshu?"

Xu Yanshu also gave his approval without reservation, saying, "It is indeed a good wine."

After the two drank for two or three more rounds, Huang Dongsheng finally brought up the real business.

"I originally thought I could easily get you out of the Xie Group, but I didn't expect Old Xie to refuse. But don't worry, we'll find an opportunity eventually!"

Xu Yanshu nodded in agreement. He wasn't in a hurry to resign. Before that, he wanted to find out what secrets were hidden in the Xie residence.

Strike first to gain the upper hand. If we can grasp Xie Junyang's weakness, we can not only better avenge Uncle He, but also prevent Xie Junyang from having any more bad intentions in the future.

"So, what exactly happened between you and Xie Junyang that led him to demote you to the finance department?"

Having anticipated this, Xu Yanshu sighed, half-jokingly, and said, "It's probably because I insisted on divorcing Xie Huanyu, plus I had already submitted my resignation before this."

"This made him suspicious of me, so he didn't dare to put me in a management position anymore!"

He only speaks three-tenths of what he knows to others. If he were to confess that he had used company secrets to blackmail Xie Junyang in order to leave his job, Huang Dongsheng, who is also a businessman, would definitely become suspicious of him.

Huang Dongsheng nodded as if he understood, then gave a noncommittal snort.

They don't even look at how outrageous their daughter has become. If it were anyone else, they probably would have filed for divorce long ago.

Seeing this, Xu Yanshu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that he had finally passed this hurdle safely.

"So, have you thought about what you'll do after you leave your job?"

Xu Yanshu was somewhat flattered, but he didn't intend to hide anything and answered truthfully, "I might start my own business!"

People can rise to prominence faster in their areas of expertise. One thing at a time, I have to admit that I have indeed learned a lot of tricks of the trade at Xie's in the past few years, and have also built up some connections.

He also happened to have some money left, which was more than enough to start a small company. As for further development, he would have to rely on his own strength.

"Good lad, you've got guts," Huang Dongsheng said, giving Xu Yanshu an approving look. "If you ever encounter any problems later, just come to Uncle Huang, and I'll definitely help you out in any way I can!"

Xu Yanshu was overjoyed and immediately nodded in agreement, saying, "Then I'll thank Uncle Huang in advance!"

Knowing that Huang Dongsheng's words were not just empty talk, he unconsciously weighed their weight in his mind.

Although he started his own business, he wouldn't leave his existing network unused. With Huang Dongsheng backing the store, he could effectively prevent malicious people from causing trouble.

The two chatted casually until the meal ended.

Considering that Xu Yanshu had been drinking, Huang Dongsheng specially arranged for a driver to take him home.

Upon seeing Xu Yanshu's car, the driver's expression changed, and he cautiously said, "Mr. Xu, I suspect your car has been tampered with. You'd better take it to a 4S shop for inspection immediately, and to be on the safe side, you shouldn't drive this car for a while!"

"Then go and tell the housekeeper to arrange for someone to tow the car, and then you go and drive the car out of the underground garage."

Upon hearing this, Huang Dongsheng's face suddenly turned serious. After a moment of silence, he instructed the driver, then turned to Xu Yanshu standing beside him, "Old Shen is better at judging cars than women. Yanshu, better safe than sorry. You'd better be careful in your actions lately."

Xu Yanshu nodded cautiously, realizing the seriousness of the situation, and a cold sweat broke out on his back.

You should know that he had been watching this car the whole time, and before this, he hadn't noticed anything wrong with it at all...

So who tampered with his car and when?

Several names flashed through Xu Yanshu's mind, and his eyes gradually became wary. It seemed he really needed to be more careful lately.

——

Xie Junyang had been feeling a pang of regret for missing out on land with huge potential so often, but he never expected to receive such a generous gift from Zhou Zehao in the blink of an eye.

“I was just trying my luck, and I didn’t expect to actually get it. I don’t know what to do with it right now, so I thought I might as well give it to you.”

Even though he tried to restrain himself, Xie Junyang couldn't hide the joy on his face. He nodded repeatedly with satisfaction, "Then I'll accept it without hesitation."

"If you ever need any help in the future, just let me know, and I will answer all your questions to the best of my ability."

This place has a greater geographical advantage than the plot of land I originally had my eye on. If it is properly planned, the returns will definitely be considerable.

Xie Junyang was surprised by Zhou Zehao's generosity. He secretly thought to himself that it was the right thing to let Huan Yu get to know Zhou Zehao better.

"We're all on the same side, no need to be so polite!" Zhou Zehao waved his hand dismissively, then his gaze paused slightly before he changed the subject, "I heard that Xu Yanshu recently hooked up with a very important person, he must be quite pleased with himself, right?"

Xie Junyang scoffed dismissively, "Hmph, temporary triumph means nothing; the one who laughs last laughs best!"

"And I don't have that much magnanimity; I certainly won't let him show off under my nose forever!"

If it weren't for Huang Dongsheng being caught in the middle, he would have already dealt with Xu Yanshu.

People like Huang Dongsheng might not really be willing to protect an unknown young man forever. He'll settle accounts with Xu Yanshu later.

This statement put Zhou Zehao at ease, though he feared that the old fox was being reluctant to admit his mistake and might just let Xu Yanshu off the hook.

Thinking back to his secret arrangements, his eyes flashed with a meaningful light. He wanted to see just how tough Xu Yanshu's life really was.

Having finished speaking, Zhou Zehao was getting up to leave when he bumped into Xie Huanyu, who had just returned from outside.

Xie Junyang spoke up to himself, "Huanyu, you're back just in time. You two must have missed each other for quite a few days. Why don't you see Young Master Zhou off for me?"

"No need, Young Master Zhou's car..."

Zhou Zehao quickly chimed in, "That's fine, I happen to have something for Huanyu."
