"Boss Zhou, something bad has happened. The company's stock price has suddenly started to fall!"
The confidant's voice came from the phone receiver. Zhou Jianshu's heartbeat accelerated and his breathing quickened: "How much did it fall?!"
"So far it's 0.85 points... No... 2.1 points... 4.6 points..."
Suddenly, the sound of overturned tables and chairs interrupted the conversation. There was a faint noise, but it was too loud for Zhou Jianshu to hear what was happening. He could only emphasize his tone and urge, "What's going on? How much has it fallen? Why did it fall? What's the point of the company's regulatory department? Didn't they get any advance information?!"
The noisy sound faded away a little, probably because the confidant had moved away from the crowd.
After waiting for a few more seconds, the other party finally spoke again, but his voice was trembling and he could barely form a sentence: "Stop... Mr. Zhou... Mr. Zhou, something terrible has happened... The company's stock... stock... has hit the limit down..."
Zhou Jianshu's pupils trembled: "What did you say? Say it again!!"
The confidant still couldn't recover, his voice drifting: "The stock has hit the limit down... Mr. Zhou, the company's stock has hit the limit down... Just now, in the short time I called you, the company's stock has hit the limit down..."
A full ten points!
In just eight seconds, the company's stock price dropped a full ten points!
How much money does this cost!
Zhou Jianshu felt his heart bleed. Suddenly, he realized the crux of the matter and asked in a trembling voice, "When? Tell me, when did the stock price hit the limit down?"
"Just now when I was talking to you on the phone..."
"I want to tell you the exact time, accurate to the hour, minute and second!!!" Zhou Jianshu was already shouting, with veins bulging on his forehead.
The confidant was startled and quickly opened the stock market interface to take a look. He quickly replied, "Just two minutes ago, at 6:17:09 pm."
6:17:09...
6:17:09...
Not a second more or less, Zhou Jianshu knew the reason without asking any more questions.
Zhou Jianshu felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
Tang Xiuzhi was startled and quickly reached out to help, but Zhou Jianshu slapped her in the face and knocked her to the ground.
Ignoring the look of disbelief on Tang Xiuzhi's face, Zhou Jianshu's gaze immediately fell on Zhou Yiheng. Regardless of his injuries, he dragged him directly in front of Xie Xihe and begged for mercy without hesitation, "Ms. Xie, it's my fault. I shouldn't have made such a sudden conclusion without knowing the truth! And I shouldn't have protected my own son without first figuring out the whole thing!"
"Zhou Yiheng has been naughty since he was little, and was led astray by his mother. No matter what the outcome, he was definitely the one who started it all! It's all his fault! He deserved the beating from Young Master Sheng!"
"I apologize to you and the young master on his behalf. If you have any requests, just ask. I will definitely satisfy them if I can. I only ask that you show some mercy and let Tianheng go this time!"
"Even if Zhou Yiheng has to kowtow and apologize, that's fine!"
Zhou Jianshu pressed Zhou Yiheng's shoulder and shouted, "Hurry up and apologize to Young Master Sheng!"
Zhou Yiheng was completely panicked and knelt down in front of Sheng Ming in a daze, but Sheng Ming moved aside two steps.
Sheng Ming pursed her lips and turned her head away, not looking at him.
Zhou Jianshu was secretly resentful, but he had to continue to lower his posture and beg for mercy. His fawning and obsequious appearance made Director Fang and others who had seen all kinds of people unable to bear it, but they could not sympathize with him at all, and could only sneer and disdain.
I have heard for a long time that the boss of Tianheng Entertainment started his business with the help of his wife, and the company’s current success is also thanks to Mrs. Zhou who is steering the company from behind the scenes.
I thought Zhou Jianshu was just a gigolo, but I didn't expect he was such a person behind the scenes.
He keeps a mistress, has an illegitimate child, bullies the weak and fears the strong, has no sense of responsibility, and is completely good for nothing!
The Ning family must have been blind to find such a son-in-law for Mrs. Zhou!
Mrs. Zhou's face was extremely ugly. She felt that she had lost more face in her entire life than in today's day!
She took a deep breath and wanted to step forward, but just as she took a step, she was stopped by her daughter behind her.
Miss Zhou shook her head and told her to be patient.
Mrs. Zhou's face was tense, but she endured it for the time being.
Zhou Jianshu had lost his previous aggressiveness and sharpness, but even so, Xie Xihe remained indifferent. His expression even grew colder. "Mr. Zhou, save your apology for Tianheng's shareholders and executives. Let's see if they're willing to accept it."
Zhou Jianshu's expression changed: "Miss Xie..."
Xie Xihe raised his eyes and glanced over: "Do you need me to say it a second time?"
Zhou Jianshu's eyes shifted as he scanned the other person's indifferent face. Finally realizing that things were irreversible, he gritted his teeth and said, "Ms. Xie, you have some formidable tactics. Fine, I've made a mistake today. I admit defeat."
"But when Ms. Xie kills her opponent, aren't you afraid of injuring the enemy by a thousand and losing eight hundred of your own?"
"Tian Heng fell into your hands today, but have you ever thought about the consequences if today's incident gets out?"
"A popular movie star and a popular actress have a child out of wedlock. Miss Xie, do you think this news will explode on the internet?"
"And if I remember correctly, Miss Xie is only nineteen years old this year, right?" His gaze fell on Sheng Ming again, and he asked meaningfully, "How old is Young Master Sheng this year, four? Five?"
His eyes were filled with even more meaning. "Miss Xie's feelings for Mr. Sheng are truly profound! So profound that they're even willing to cross certain boundaries!"
Bang!
A loud noise suddenly sounded.
Just when everyone's heart was in their throat, Sheng Ming suddenly broke free from Xie Xihe's hand and rushed out like a cannonball. He pushed Zhou Jianshu far away with his little head and stopped only after hitting a pillar.
No one saw clearly how Sheng Ming did it. Anyway, when everyone came to their senses, they saw Sheng Ming sitting on Zhou Jianshu's chest in the same posture as when he beat Zhou Yiheng before. His small fist, which was not even as big as an egg, fell on Zhou Jianshu's face again and again. After just a few hits, Zhou Jianshu's face was crooked.
Although the child was just a tiny one, he seemed to possess infinite power. Zhou Jianshu struggled several times but failed to break free, and finally a look of fear appeared in his eyes.
The anger that Sheng Ming had suppressed with great difficulty was stirred up again. His eyes were red. While beating people, he cried in a voice full of tears: "Bad guys! You are all bad guys! You are Zhou Yiheng's father, you are as bad as him! Even worse than him!"
"Xixi didn't break any law! Jingjing didn't break any law either! I told you to talk nonsense! I told you to be bad!"
Another punch landed, and Sheng Ming, filled with grievance and sadness, finally couldn't help but burst into tears, saying loudly: "I'm not Xixi's biological child! I was picked up by Xixi!!"
