Chapter 1654: Coercion and Inducement to Acquire
When Gu Ning heard Jing Yunyao get up, he also got up.
Before Gu Ning went downstairs, he heard noises coming from the kitchen and immediately knew that Jing Yunyao was going to make breakfast.
Gu Ning felt a little bad about asking Jing Yunyao to make breakfast, so he immediately went downstairs and walked into the kitchen: "Aunt, let me do it!"
"It's okay, it's okay. I'll do it. You just wait outside." Jing Yunyao said.
Gu Ning didn't insist and went out.
Gu Ning also saw that the scar on Jing Yunyao's face was gone, but that was expected, so he was not surprised at all.
Soon, Jing Yunyao prepared breakfast and brought it out. Gu Ning wanted to help, but was rejected.
Then while eating breakfast, Gu Ning always felt that Jing Yunyao looked at her with sympathy and love, which made Gu Ning feel a little amused and helpless, and she also had some guesses.
"Aunt, I see sympathy and love in your eyes. Did you misunderstand something?" Gu Ning asked.
"No, no," Jing Yunyao denied. No matter whether Gu Ning knew that she had heard her phone call yesterday, she didn't want to mention Gu Ning's sad story.
"It's obvious from your looks! Did you hear me making a phone call yesterday?" Gu Ning asked, and took the initiative to mention the phone call, not wanting Jing Yunyao to misunderstand or worry.
Jing Yunyao paused. Since Gu Ning had already brought it up, Jing Yunyao knew that if she said no, Gu Ning would not believe her, so she admitted, "Yes! I heard it all."
Because Gu Ning already knew that Jing Yunyao had heard it, he was not surprised at all.
"Then did you misunderstand that I was the Tang Aining?" Gu Ning asked. Although he was asking, he had already determined it in his heart, otherwise she would not have suddenly felt sympathy and pity for him!
"Isn't it?" Hearing this, Jing Yunyao was stunned and asked back.
Although it was a rhetorical question, Gu Ning's words made it very clear that Gu Ning was not Tang Aining.
Sure enough... "No, Tang Aining is dead. I am Tang Aining's apprentice, so I deal with the Tang family to avenge my master. I impersonated Tang Aining to make Tang Aining's father more frightened and uneasy." Gu Ning explained. Since Jing Yunyao had heard it, it would be bad if he didn't explain and let her misunderstand.
Although it was not a misunderstanding, Tang Aining was already her past and her present was Gu Ning, so to her own people, it could only be Gu Ning.
"So that's how it is!" Upon hearing this, Jing Yunyao understood and breathed a sigh of relief.
After breakfast, Jing Yunyao said to Gu Ning: "Ningning, if you have something to do, just go and do it! You don't have to accompany me specially. I'm not a child. I can take care of myself."
Jing Yunyao didn’t know whether Gu Ning was just a hands-off boss as she said, and it didn’t matter whether he went to the company or not, but she knew that Gu Ning stayed to accompany her on purpose.
She appreciated Gu Ning's kindness, but she couldn't delay her.
"I don't have anything to do for the time being. If I were to have something, I would go and take care of it. Don't worry!" Gu Ning comforted him.
After hearing what Gu Ning said, Jing Yunyao didn't know what to say. It would not be good to say too much, as it seemed like they didn't want her to be there.
Although Gu Ning didn't go anywhere for the time being, he didn't keep staring at Jing Yunyao, because everyone needs private space.
Of course, what Gu Ning meant by staring was not to be on guard, but to be worried about what she might need.
At noon, Gu Ning received a call from Ning Changkai, who told Gu Ning that the Lannio Group of the Dilanxier United Kingdom wanted to acquire Coach. Peng Zijie, deputy general manager of the capital branch of the Dipu Dongxia United Kingdom Company of the Lannio Group, visited him many times, but was rejected by him, and then he used threats and inducements.
[Laneo Group] is one of the world's leading cosmetics companies, with operations in more than 130 countries and regions. It is also one of the Fortune Global 500 companies.
[Laniao Group] currently has nine cosmetics brands, including two top brands, two first-line brands, two second-line brands, and the rest are third-line and below brands.
Among them, Lannio is a second-tier brand.
[Laniao Group] The reason why Laniao is a second-tier company is because [Laniao Group] initially made its fortune from Laniao.
Gu Ning was not surprised to be targeted by such a large group, after all, Coach was indeed a targeted force. Gu Ning was also curious about how the Lanio Group would position Coach after acquiring it!
However, Gu Ning was indeed unhappy about the other party's coercion and inducement, and asked, "What coercion?"
What Gu Ning hated most was intimidation. In normal negotiations, it was necessary to weigh the pros and cons, but if someone used their status to pressure others, and continued to harass her after she was rejected, Gu Ning didn't think she could ignore it.
"The other party said that he is a relative of the Yuan family in the capital. If we don't agree, he will make it impossible for us to survive in the capital." Ning Changkai said. If it weren't for such a big background, he would not easily alarm Gu Ning.
Hearing this, Gu Ning's face darkened even more: "Very good, I want to see how he makes it difficult for us to survive in the capital. If he comes again, just give him my phone number and I will talk to him."
"Yes." Ning Changkai responded. Although he was worried that Gu Ning could not handle it, Gu Ning was much more capable than him after all. If he were asked to handle it, he would be even more unable to handle it.
Ning Changkai was worried that Gu Ning would not be able to cope with it because he did not yet understand the specific identity behind Gu Ning, but he knew the status of the Yuan family in the capital.
Although the other party is only a relative of the Yuan family, they may not be unwilling to help. As long as the Yuan family makes a move, they will be in endless trouble.
After hanging up the phone with Ning Changkai, Gu Ning called K and asked him to investigate Peng Zijie, the vice president of the [Lanio Group] Dipu Dongxia United Kingdom Company, and his relationship with the Yuan family in the capital.
Although it seems a little early to investigate the opponent before we even meet, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle, right?
Soon, K found out that Peng Zijie was indeed related to the Yuan family in the capital, but the relationship was a bit distant.
Peng Zijie is the husband of the sister-in-law of the eldest son of the Yuan family in the capital. In other words, Peng Shaojie and the Yuan family are separated by several generations.
Although the Peng family and the Yuan family sometimes interacted with each other, it was rarely, so their relationship was not close.
Gu Ning couldn't help but sneer. Such a distant and not even close relative is also used to bully others? It's simply ridiculous.
Although the position of deputy general manager of the capital branch of the [Lannio Group] Emperor East Xia United Kingdom Company is not small, [Lannio Group] is a foreign group after all, so its influence is very strong in the United Kingdom of Dilansir, but not so strong in the United Kingdom of Dipu East Xia. It is not enough to rely on [Lannio Group] alone to exert pressure.
