Chapter 196 Disturbing People's Hearts
Chapter 197 Disturbing People's Hearts
The meeting between the Bai and Liu families ended in a bad mood.
On the day he left the Bai family, Liu Yuhang found a reporter and made all of Bai Xiaofeng's misdeeds public, reporting them through all major news channels.
For a time, ordinary people were extremely indignant at the despicable behavior of the rich second generation, and they criticized it verbally and in writing; while people in the circle treated this incident as a topic of conversation after dinner, waiting to see the Bai family make a fool of themselves.
Early in the morning, the second son of the Bai family stormed into his eldest brother's study and threw the newspapers and magazines in his hands onto the table.
"Brother, look at what good things Xiaofeng has done outside? Because of this incident, our company's stock has been seriously affected. Those shareholders call me every day to ask what is going on. I even heard that Lao Zheng and others have started selling their shares! If this continues, our company will become someone else's! Brother, think of a solution quickly..."
The head of the Bai family sat steadily behind the table. After listening to his younger brother's complaints, he raised his hand to motion him to sit down. He then brewed a cup of Kung Fu tea and pushed it in front of his younger brother.
“Second brother, I already know about this matter, but it’s not as simple as you see.
Although Xiaofeng is mischievous, he would never do such a thing. It is obvious that someone is targeting us on purpose.
You should have guessed who it is. Humph! In the past two years, the Liu family has gradually surpassed us. Even if this incident didn't happen, our two families would have been at odds sooner or later. This time, they just used Xiaofeng's incident as a lead, and found a few media to fan the flames and create public pressure. They just want to impact us in terms of stocks. Their little tricks can't be hidden from my eyes."
The head of the Bai family took a sip of tea slowly, then exhaled, "Second brother, don't interfere in this matter. I know what to do. What you need to do recently is to keep an eye on those shareholders and tell me immediately if there is any movement."
Although the second son of the Bai family was puzzled by his eldest brother's nonchalant attitude, his eldest brother always had his own considerations, so he could only nod obediently and do as he was told.
In the next few days, all major newspapers and entertainment news in the capital were reporting on the Bai family's affairs. For a time, Bai Xiaofeng became a laughing stock in the circle, and those playmates who were usually close to him also found excuses to avoid him.
But Bai Xiaofeng didn't care at all and continued to do his own thing. However, some people discovered that Bai Xiaofeng seemed to have secretly sold his favorite car.
"Have you heard? Bai Xiaofeng has started selling cars recently!"
"That's impossible. That guy is so rich, why would he suddenly sell his most beloved car?"
"What else could it be? Their family is going bankrupt! I heard that the stock price has already hit the limit down. Seeing that the situation is not good, the shareholders of the Bai family have already sold all their shares..."
"Alas, this is really a case of things changing so drastically. A few days ago he said he wanted to buy an island and lease it as a holiday resort, but only a few days later he's already started selling everything he has..."
After hearing the news, Liu Yuhang's physical and mental pain finally eased a little. That day, he brought a group of people to the teahouse that Bai Xiaofeng was renovating.
"Miss Fang, how are you?"
Looking at Liu Yuhang at the door, Fang Qing frowned slightly.
Although she knew that he wouldn't dare do anything to her in public, she was still a little nervous when she thought of what happened in the hotel that day.
"What are you doing here?"
Looking at Fang Qing who was extremely serious, Liu Yuhang laughed.
Because of this incident, his marriage with Qin Xue was off. But this stinky girl surnamed Fang, who had no power or influence, actually dared to turn her face away from him. He was furious when he thought of this!
It was difficult for him to deal with others, but it was easy for him to deal with Fang Qing.
"Miss Fang, don't you know what I'm doing here? You were flirting with me that day in the hotel, weren't you trying to get me to pay attention to you? So I came to see you today..."
Although Liu Yuhang did not finish his words, everyone present understood them. An erotic scene automatically appeared in their minds, and they looked at Fang Qing with disdain and contempt.
Fang Qing gritted his teeth, knowing that he was here for no good reason, but this was a workplace and he absolutely could not conflict with him.
"Mr. Liu, I don't understand what you are talking about. This is a workplace. Please leave here as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Liu Yuhang laughed out loud, "Still working? Ha! The Bai family is going bankrupt, and there's no point in renovating this shabby shop. We might as well tear it down quickly. This piece of land may be sold for some money while it's still warm."
Seeing that Liu Yuhang had caused panic among the workers around him with just a few words, Fang Qing's face turned pale.
"Mr. Liu! If you continue to make trouble, I will call the police! You are not welcome here, please leave!"
Liu Yuhang originally wanted to find an excuse to close the place, but Fang Qing immediately called Qin Xue, "Boss Qin, Mr. Liu is causing trouble here! What do you think we should do?"
Although Liu Yuhang was not afraid of the police, he did not dare to offend the Qin family easily, and immediately left with his people.
"Okay, you're brave, let's wait and see!"
Liu Yuhang left, but the workers around him were panicked.
"Engineer Fang, is this true? Is this shop owner's business really bankrupt? Should we continue to renovate this teahouse?"
"Miss Bai, we are just ordinary people. If you can't do this job, please tell us in advance so that we can find another job..."
"Yes, we turned down many jobs in order to take this one. You have to give us a definite answer!"
Amid the buzz of discussion, Fang Qing raised his hand to signal everyone to quiet down.
"Masters, don't listen to rumors outside! This teahouse has nothing to do with the Bai family. It is the employer's private property. In addition, your salary and project budget have long been given to me by the other party, so the project will continue and will not be stopped for other reasons."
Although Fang Qing spoke very frankly and did not deduct their wages and benefits, the workers relied on this for their livelihood, and the gossip outside still caused them anxiety.
On the same day, someone privately approached Fang Qing and asked him to pay half a month's salary. Fang Qing took out the contract, which was signed by Fang Qing's company and the decoration team. Even if they didn't want to do it anymore, they had to continue the work.
The workers had no choice but to go back and resign to the decoration team leader, refusing to continue working there no matter what.
When the others saw this, they also ran to the captain, finding all kinds of excuses to go home and demanding payment of the remaining wages.
These people are all fellow villagers, and the renovation team leader cannot really deduct their money, so he can only let them go.
In less than three days, only two people were left in the renovation team. The team leader had no choice but to find some temporary workers to barely keep up the renovation progress.
Fang Qing told Qin Xue and Bai Xiaofeng about this matter. The two of them joined forces for the first time and prepared to deal with Liu Yuhang!
