Chapter 454 A Lifeline!



One day ago.

When Qu Wanting heard that Grandpa Qu was willing to forgive her, she shed tears of emotion.

"Father has finally agreed to acknowledge her as his daughter."

Shallow Bay Villa District.

"Dad, I've come to see you."

Looking at her elderly father, Qu Wanting wiped away her tears; it had been nearly twenty years since they last met.

Her father always refused to see her, and every time he brought his son Ouyang Fei to visit, she couldn't even see her father.

Now, standing before her father once again, one can imagine Qu Wanting's overwhelming excitement.

"It's good that you're here, it's good that you're here."

Grandpa Qu held Qu Wanting's hand, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

Twenty years have passed.

My daughter has gone from a mischievous girl to a married woman.

Time waits for no one.

What grudges or resentments are there that you can't let go of?

"Cough cough..."

"Dad, are you alright? I'll go get the family doctor," Qu Wanting asked with concern.

"No need, why see a doctor? I know my own body very well. These are all old ailments. Your father is getting on in years, I don't think he has many years left to live."

Qu Wanting feigned anger, "What are you saying, Dad? You'll definitely live to be a hundred or a thousand years old. You'll even see Xiaofei get married and have children."

"Then he'd become an old, immortal tortoise, hahaha..."

Grandpa Qu laughed heartily, which triggered another bout of violent coughing.

Seeing her father's condition, Qu Wanting was very worried. Her relationship with her father had just improved, and now his health had deteriorated like this. She felt a pang of self-blame.

Grandpa Qu was quite open-minded. He patted Qu Wanting's hand and said, "In this life, birth, aging, sickness and death are the norm. I've long since come to terms with it. The only thing I'm uneasy about is my relationship with you. Now, our relationship has improved, so I have nothing to be upset about. I'll live one day at a time."

"As for you, if you still think about this old man in the future, bring the children back to see me more often when you have time. I'm afraid that we really won't see each other much then."

Qu Wanting was already in tears.

"Dad, no, don't worry. I will bring your grandson Ouyang Fei and Ouyang Ming to visit you every year. You will definitely live to be a hundred years old."

Qu Wanting clung to Grandpa Qu's arm, just like when she was a child and would snuggle in her father's arms.

"Haha, I hope so too, but all that hard work in my youth has taken its toll on my health now... let's wait and see..."

"Dad, please stop talking."

Grandpa Qu didn't want to say anything more about this sad topic, so he changed the subject to Ouyang Fei.

"I heard from Xiaofei that he offended someone in Hong Kong, and it even implicated Ouyang Ming. What exactly happened?"

Grandpa Qu naturally wouldn't listen to Ouyang Fei's one-sided opinion, so Qu Wanting's attitude became crucial at this point.

Qu Wanting came here to ask for help. Before this, she and her son Ouyang Fei had already spoken and knew what to say.

Therefore, their words were exactly the same.

Grandpa Qu didn't investigate further. Since his daughter and grandson both said so, then it must be true.

"This is outrageous, absolutely lawless."

"The business world is like a battlefield, so don't linger here. There's no time to lose. You and Xiaofei should head back to Hong Kong today. I'll have your Uncle Ming give you a check. Use this money to get through this difficult time."

The Uncle Ming mentioned by Grandpa Qu is the Qu family's old butler, who also watched Qu Wanting grow up.

Upon hearing this...

Qu Wanting felt a surge of joy. With her father's help, she was sure she could help her husband stabilize the Ouyang Group.

However, Qu Wanting underestimated Chen Dong's determination and even more so his strength.

One hundred million Hong Kong dollars.

That's right, the funds provided by Mr. Qu were exactly HK$100 million.

If most shareholders hadn't switched sides a few days ago and sold their increasingly worthless shares, there would still be a chance for things to turn around.

It's true that Chen Dong is rich.

Forcibly acquiring shares in the Ouyang Group won't be so easy.

As long as most shareholders don't sell their shares, Chen Dong's wealth is irrelevant.

In this way, at least Ouyang Group's control has been preserved.

Unfortunately, the help Qu Wanting sought came far too late.

Due to manipulation by Wangcai and others, the stock price of Ouyang Group has been hitting new historical lows. Faced with this situation, no one can sit still.

This includes shareholders within the Ouyang Group.

That's far from all.

After acquiring shares in the Ouyang Group, they exploited loopholes in the stock market by pledging these shares and then manipulating the stock price. When the stock price plummeted, they were required to replenish the margin, thus ensuring the safety of the pledged shares.

Here comes the crazy move.

Since Chen Dong did not pay any additional margin, the brokerage firm will liquidate the pledged shares to recover its costs.

This method of operation is compliant.

However, no one would be foolish enough to suppress a stock in this way.

It can only be said that Chen Dongyi is highly skilled and daring, and has sufficient funds to do this.

This action exacerbated the decline in Ouyang Group's stock price.

How can things remain intact when caught in a vicious cycle?

......

The office of the chairman of Ouyang Group.

The secretary rushed in, shouting, "Chairman, something terrible has happened! Someone is trying to break in! I told them the chairman has important business to attend to and won't see anyone, but they won't listen, and they even beat up the security guards!"

Before she could continue speaking, Wangcai pushed aside the secretary who was blocking his way and made room for Chen Dong.
