To say that he was after money and status doesn't quite make sense.
Liu Qingyao's Liu Group was taken advantage of by the Hong Group, which forcibly acquired it for a paltry two million.
Logically speaking, Hong Guoliang should be her enemy.
It's utterly absurd to be kept by one's enemy.
Thinking of this, he suddenly started to laugh at himself.
I have no relationship with Liu Qingyao anymore, so why should I speculate about why she's being kept by a sugar daddy? What business is it of mine?
So he shrugged at Lin Xueyan and waved his hands: "It's her business if she's willing to be kept. Why are you telling me all this?"
Then, he looked at Hong Guoliang and said, "Speak, what is it you want to see me about?"
Before Hong Guoliang could respond, Liu Qingyao suddenly turned around and sneered.
"Yes, it's my business if I'm willing to be kept."
Are you secretly gloating? Laughing at me for being reduced to being a kept woman?
"Ye Tianyu, let me tell you, I dare to be kept by a sugar daddy, and I'm not afraid of you laughing at me."
"Me, gloating?"
Ye Tianyu smiled calmly: "Say whatever you want, it's pointless, I don't want to argue with you!"
His gaze returned to Hong Guoliang: "Chairman Hong, if you invited me here just to show off that you're keeping a mistress, then I'm not wasting my time. I'm leaving!"
After saying that, he stood up abruptly.
"Haha, that's got character!"
Hong Guoliang burst into laughter and waved his hand: "Sit down! Let's get down to business!"
Ye Tianyu glanced at him coldly and sat down again.
"Ye Tianyu, I've asked you out twice before, but you didn't give me the time of day. You're getting a little arrogant!"
Hong Guoliang took a sip of coffee: "But I still got to see you today!"
"I don't want to keep you in suspense, I'll just speak frankly!"
"Lin Xueyan has contacted you many times, so I believe you already know why I asked to meet with you!"
"Join the Hong Group! I won't treat you unfairly!"
His meaning was simple and clear, expressed in a single sentence, exactly as Ye Tianyu had expected.
"I'm sorry, I have my own business and don't need to join the Hong Group!"
Ye Tianyu simply refused with a single sentence.
"Your business refers to Tianbaoshan Scenic Area, right?"
Hong Guoliang smiled arrogantly: "You do have a good eye. A business prodigy of the younger generation, you can see the business opportunities in Tianbaoshan Scenic Area."
"You've taken over all the most profitable businesses in the scenic area, including restaurants, guesthouses, hotels, and entertainment facilities. That's amazing!"
"I value your talent, which is why I want you to join the Hong Group!"
"Here's what we'll do: as long as you join the Hong Group, just name your conditions, and I'll meet them!"
"I'm sorry, I've already made it very clear that I will not join the Hong Group, and no amount of conditions will work!"
Ye Tianyu crossed his arms, looking calm: "I came here today to tell you to give up and stop bothering me. I'm very busy!"
"Heh! You're very direct!"
Hong Guoliang chuckled twice: "Is it because of Fang Xueqing that you can't bear to part with her, which is why you keep rejecting my kindness?"
"Chairman Hong, my affair with Fang Xueqing is none of your business, and I will not answer your question!"
Ye Tianyu said firmly, "Anyway, no matter what conditions you propose, I will not agree. Don't waste your breath and time!"
"Ye Tianyu, don't make grand pronouncements too soon!"
Hong Guoliang's face darkened: "Even if you don't say it, I know you're infatuated with Fang Xueqing!"
"Let me make this clear to you: when my Hong Group fully establishes itself in Jiangnan, the Fang Group will cease to exist."
"There's nothing I, Hong Guoliang, can't do if I set my mind to it."
"For example, I said at the time that I wanted to take over the Liu Group."
"Look, not only has the Liu Group been taken over by me, but Liu Qingyao is also mine. I can ask her to sleep with me anytime, and she will never say no!"
While demonstrating his strength in person, he also brought up Liu Qingyao, clearly threatening and showing off openly.
Ye Tianyu was equally defiant, coldly replying.
"Let me make this clear to you: if you dare to do anything to the Fang Group or Fang Xueqing, I will also make the Hong Group cease to exist!"
They were completely disregarding Hong Guoliang, and they met him head-on.
"Well……"
Hong Guoliang was stunned, and his facial expression changed several times in an instant.
He was clearly angry.
As the chairman of the Hong Group, a super conglomerate in Binzhou, even the four major families in China wouldn't dare to confront him like this.
However, Ye Tianyu, a rising star in the business world, was so arrogant that he dared to disrespect him.
He wanted to get angry, but he quickly held back.
After a while, he gave a dry laugh.
"Hehe! Impressive. You're the first person to dare talk to me like that. You've really impressed me."
"However, despite your business genius, the Tianbaoshan Scenic Area is doing very well."
"But our strength is still limited, and we still have a long way to go if we want to expand and grow."
"So I advise you again, joining my Hong Group will save you ten years of detours."
"With the strength of my Hong family, it wouldn't be a problem to help you completely rebuild the entire scenic area."
"Such a great opportunity, you should really think about it!"
The promises made personally by the head of the Hong Group are something most people cannot afford.
However, Ye Tianyu remained unmoved and smiled mockingly: "Chairman Hong, don't think I don't know that you've dangled such a big pie in my face, only to set a trap for me to fall into!"
"Once I join the Hong Group, Tianbaoshan Scenic Area will be yours."
“The Liu Group is a case in point. I predicted that she would fall into your trap when Lin Xueyan approached Liu Qingyao and offered her a 500 million yuan electronics manufacturing order.”
"As expected, it has come true today. Not only has the Liu Group been acquired by you, but even her people have become your possession."
"But I'm not her. You're trying to use the same tricks on me? I advise you to give up. None of your schemes will succeed!"
When he mentioned the Liu Group as an example, Liu Qingyao immediately looked at him with an extremely complicated expression in her eyes.
Hong Guoliang was speechless after being rebuked, his face turning pale and then red.
Ye Tianyu saw through the plan and realized that this young man posed an immense threat to the Hong Group's full-scale expansion.
Keeping him around is a recipe for disaster.
Such a brilliant business genius, if not useful to us, must be eliminated to prevent future troubles.
"Cough cough!"
He coughed twice, his expression turning menacing, and said in a sinister tone, "Ye Tianyu, anyone who offends me will never have a good ending!"
"Shouldn't you think it over?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Tianyu's arrogance was immediately aroused, and he responded without showing any weakness.
“Chairman Hong, you’ve got it backwards. I haven’t offended you; you’re the one who wants to offend me.”
"I also warn you, anyone who provokes me will not have a good ending. If you want to mess with me, please be careful!"
"I've said what I needed to say, I'm leaving!"
After Ye Tianyu finished speaking, he didn't look at him again and strode away...
