Chapter 308 Many Changes
How did he find his way here?
“I don’t know,” Fang Lanxin said. “But I think he might be the one investigating us.”
Guan Jingshen's eyes turned cold.
"I will have Ah Kun investigate this matter thoroughly."
Fang Lanxin nodded.
She felt uneasy.
Lu Chen gave her a very strange feeling.
There was a kind of obsession and madness in his eyes.
This kind of person is dangerous.
The next morning, Fang Lanxin received a call from Huo Qibang.
"Mom, are you free today?"
"What's wrong"
"Something's happened at the company," Fok Kai-pong said. "I'd like to ask you to come and help take a look."
Fang Lanxin frowned.
"What's up"
“There’s been a problem with the new district project,” said Fok Kai-pong. “The government suddenly said they need to re-examine the planning.”
"The project may have to be suspended."
Fang Lanxin's heart sank.
In the previous life, the new district project was indeed halted due to policy changes.
But that was three months later.
How come there's a problem now?
"Qibang, don't panic," Fang Lanxin said. "I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Fang Lanxin changed her clothes and prepared to go out.
Guan Jingshen came downstairs.
"Lanxin, you need to go out."
"Yes, something happened at Qibang," Fang Lanxin said. "I'll go take a look."
"I'll go with you."
"No need," Fang Lanxin said. "You rest at home, I'll be back soon."
Guan Jingshen looked at her.
"Lanxin, you've been working too hard lately."
"I'm fine," Fang Lanxin smiled. "Jing Shen, don't worry."
Guan Jingshen sighed.
"Then be careful on your way."
"Um."
Fang Lanxin drove to the Huo Group.
Kenneth Fok was already waiting in his office.
"Mom, you've come."
"Okay." Fang Lanxin sat down. "Tell me, what exactly happened?"
Huo Qibang handed the document to Fang Lanxin.
"Mom, look at this."
Fang Lanxin opened the file.
It was a notification from the government.
They said the new district project involves environmental issues and needs to be reassessed.
The project was suspended until the evaluation results were available.
After reading it, Fang Lanxin frowned even more deeply.
"Qibang, when did you receive this notification?"
“Yesterday afternoon,” Fok Kai-pong said. “I felt something was wrong then.”
"We completed the environmental impact assessment report for the new district project a long time ago."
"And they all passed the review."
"The fact that they're suddenly saying there are environmental problems is clearly a ploy by someone."
Fang Lanxin nodded.
"you're right."
"Mom, do you think it could be someone from the Li family?"
“No,” Fang Lanxin said. “The Li family is too busy taking care of themselves to deal with us.”
Who could it be?
Fang Lanxin pondered for a while.
"Ki-pong, have you offended anyone recently?"
Kenneth Fok thought for a moment.
"No."
“That’s strange,” Fang Lanxin said. “This project is very important to the Huo family. If someone wants to sabotage it, they must be targeting the Huo family.”
"Mom, what should we do now?"
"Let's talk to someone in the government first," Fang Lanxin said. "Let's see if we can smooth things over."
“I’ve already contacted them,” Fok Kai-pong said. “But they were very firm and said a reassessment was necessary.”
Fang Lanxin's eyes turned cold.
"It seems the other party has quite a background."
"Mom, do you have a solution?"
Fang Lanxin didn't say anything.
She quickly recalled her memories of her past life.
The Qian Shi New Area project was halted because someone reported that the project was damaging the ecological environment.
It was later discovered that the person who reported it was from the He family.
He family
Fang Lanxin suddenly remembered.
The He family and the Huo family have always had business dealings.
In their previous life, the He family had a falling out with the Huo family due to unequal distribution of profits.
Is the He family starting to cause trouble again in this lifetime?
"Kai-pong, what's been going on with the Ho family lately?"
Huo Qibang was stunned for a moment.
The He family
"Um."
“There’s been no movement,” Huo Qibang said. “Old Master He was hospitalized a while ago and is still recovering.”
"Young Master He manages all of the He family's businesses."
Fang Lanxin nodded.
What kind of person is Young Master He?
“Young Master He…” Huo Qibang thought for a moment. “He seems very amiable on the surface, but he is actually very cunning.”
“I’ve dealt with him a few times, and he always had a smile on his face, but I always felt that he was hiding a knife behind his smile.”
Fang Lanxin understood.
"Qibang, go and check the He family's recent cash flow."
"Especially Young Master He's."
“Okay.” Huo Qibang immediately instructed his secretary to take care of it.
Half an hour later, the secretary returned with the documents.
"Mr. Huo, we've found it."
"Young Master He recently invested in a real estate project overseas."
How much was invested?
"Five hundred million."
Kenneth Fok gasped.
"Where did the He family get 500 million?"
Fang Lanxin took the documents and glanced at them.
"The location of this project is very close to our new district project."
Kenneth Fok also saw it.
"Mom, do you mean that Young Master He wants to steal our project?"
“It’s not about stealing,” Fang Lanxin said. “It’s about making our project fail so he can take over.”
Huo Qibang's expression changed.
"Is the He family trying to completely break ties with us?"
“It seems so,” Fang Lanxin said. “Qibang, go find Young Master He right now.”
"Just tell him I want to see him."
"Mother, you want to see Young Master He."
“Yes,” Fang Lanxin said. “There are some things that need to be discussed openly.”
Kenneth Fok nodded.
"I'll arrange it right away."
That afternoon.
Fang Lanxin arrived at a high-end club.
Young Master He was already waiting in the private room.
He stood up when he saw Fang Lanxin come in.
"Ms. Fang, I've long admired your name."
"You're too kind, Mr. He." Fang Lanxin sat down. "I asked you out today to talk about the new district project."
Young Master He laughed.
"Ms. Fang, I don't know what you're talking about."
“Young Master He, we’re all smart people,” Fang Lanxin said. “There’s no need to play dumb.”
"The sudden halt to the new district project—was that your doing behind the scenes?"
Young Master He's smile froze for a moment.
"Ms. Fang, you can't just say things like that."
"Whether I'm lying or not, Young Master He knows perfectly well," Fang Lanxin said. "Young Master He, I'm here today to ask you why you did this."
Young Master He put down his teacup.
“Ms. Fang, since you’ve come this far, I won’t pretend anymore.”
"That's right, I was the one who had the new district project halted."
"Why"
“This project originally belonged to the He family,” said Young Master He. “But the Huo family snatched it away.”
Fang Lanxin sneered.
"Young Master He, that's not quite right."
"The new district project was awarded through open bidding, and the Huo family won it based on their own strength."
"How can you call it robbery?"
"Strength?" Young Master He chuckled. "Ms. Fang, what strength do you think the Huo family possesses?"
"If it weren't for the marriage alliance between the Huo and Guan families, the Huo family wouldn't have been able to secure this project."
Fang Lanxin's eyes turned cold.
"Young Master He, are you just jealous?"
“I’m not jealous,” He Shao said. “I just feel it’s unfair.”
"The He family and the Huo family have been cooperating for so many years, but the Huo family never thinks of us when there are benefits to be had."
"Now that the Huo family and the Guan family have formed a marriage alliance, they treat our He family as outsiders."
"Ms. Fang, tell me, how can I not be angry?"
Fang Lanxin understood.
Young Master He is holding a grudge.
“Young Master He, in business, it’s all about ability,” Fang Lanxin said. “The Huo family has no obligation to take care of the He family.”
"Is that so?" Young Master He sneered. "Then, Ms. Fang, don't blame me for being impolite."
"I'm definitely going to take the new district project."
"If the Huo family knows what's good for them, they should obediently withdraw."
"Otherwise, don't blame me for turning my back on you."
Fang Lanxin stood up.
"Young Master He, you'll regret this."
After saying that, she turned and left the private room.
