Wang Peng never expected that Wang Cheng would sell his shares to Wang Xia.
At this moment, only he and Wang Xia remain as shareholders of the entire Huihuang Supermarket; the brother and sister are now the owners of Huihuang.
Wang Xia smiled slightly: "Brother, I'll give him 1.5 million to buy all his shares. Let's go through the procedures tomorrow, and I'll transfer the shares to you."
“Okay, I’ll give you 1.5 million too.” Wang Peng agreed immediately. Only by taking over Brilliant could he transform it.
"I don't want any money, I'll give it to you for free." Wang Xia waved her hand and said with a smile, "Big brother, you've always taken care of me since I was a child."
"When I was little, you did my laundry and cooked for me. When I was in school, you gave me the opportunity to earn my tuition."
"And then, it was because of you that I was able to become the vice president of the James Bond Group. But I've never given you anything."
At this point, Wang Xia's eyes welled up with tears. Recalling the past, her heart felt like it was being torn apart.
She shook her head and said softly, "Brother, this 40% stake in Brilliant Supermarket is a gift I'm giving you."
Wang Peng felt a pang of sadness seeing her teary-eyed appearance.
"Xiaoxia, let's not talk about the past anymore. As long as you still call me big brother, I will always take care of you."
"Brother!" Wang Xia threw herself into Wang Peng's arms, hugged his waist, and cried uncontrollably.
Wang Peng patted her on the back: "Alright, you're all grown up now, don't cry."
Holding Wang Xia in his arms, he thought of his fourth sister, Wang Zhen, who was even more stubborn. Since Wang Zhen left the provincial capital, there had been no news of her.
"I don't want to think about it anymore. I can only respect her fate." Wang Peng shook his head gently, banishing Wang Zhen from his mind.
Just then, the bedroom door opened a crack. He saw Li Guifen standing in the doorway, staring blankly in his direction.
Wang Peng met her gaze, and just as he was about to go over and take care of her, he changed his mind. He thought, "Let her witness a moment of family affection; maybe it'll clear her head."
After a long while, Wang Xia also noticed Li Guifen, and hurriedly let go of Wang Peng, taking a few steps to the door.
"Mom, why are you up?" She took Li Guifen's arm and slowly led her to bed.
Wang Peng went to the bathroom to fetch a basin of clean water, carried the basin into the bedroom, and washed Li Guifen's feet.
While washing his feet, Li Guifen kept staring at his head.
Looking at her blank, lifeless eyes, Wang Xia whispered to her, "Mom, why are you staring at my older brother? Do you even know his name?"
“My name is Wang Xia, and I am your third daughter. His name is Wang Peng, and he is your eldest son. You used to treat him badly, but now only she washes your feet.”
"Mom, don't worry, take your time to remember. One day, you'll remember who we are, you'll remember the past..."
Wang Xia kept talking, but Li Guifen still didn't react at all, staring straight at Wang Peng.
After washing her feet, Wang Peng helped her lie down on the bed and said, "Xiaoxia, I'm going back now. Take good care of her."
Wang Xia nodded: "Brother, don't drive too fast, and be careful on the road."
"I know." Wang Peng waved his hand, glanced at Li Guifen again, and turned to leave the bedroom.
Just as he was about to leave, Li Guifen's right hand suddenly trembled, and a glint of light flashed in her dazed eyes.
At that moment, Wang Xia was seeing Wang Peng off at the door and did not notice anything unusual about her.
Over the next few days, Wang Peng and Wang Xia began the process of transferring the shares of Huihuang Supermarket to Xiongdi Supermarket.
The moment the process was completed, Wang Peng felt a sense of relief. What had once been an obstacle, a major concern, had now become his business.
In the days that followed, a series of explosive news stories exploded in the provincial capital.
First, Wang Peng deregistered Huihuang Supermarket Co., Ltd., and the once powerful Huihuang Supermarket, which had dominated the provincial capital for ten years, became history.
Very well, the sign for Brilliant Store No. 5 was taken down and replaced with that of Brother Store No. 6.
The provincial capital was in an uproar again, with curious citizens flocking to Brothers Supermarket.
"Waiter, you've acquired Brilliant Store No. 5, right? From now on, it's a sister supermarket, isn't it?"
"Does Store No. 6 sell counterfeit goods? Is it exactly the same as Brother's? We absolutely do not sell counterfeit goods."
"Young lady, is Mr. Wang Peng the owner of Store No. 6? If not, then Store No. 6 is not Brothers Supermarket."
Brother Supermarket has a total of five branches, and many customers at each branch ask this question.
The store managers had no choice but to play the audio tape in their respective stores: "Chairman Wang Peng solemnly promises that the original Huihuang No. 5 store is a branch of Brother Supermarket."
The recording is played on repeat every day, over and over again.
Store No. 5, Chairman's Office. Du Lei is reporting to Wang Peng.
"Brother Peng, our suppliers are working at full capacity. Store No. 6 will be officially open for business in at most half a month."
Wang Peng nodded: "Brother Lei, don't report these small things to me anymore. Only report important things to me."
Du Lei chuckled and joked, "Brother Peng, what kind of thing is considered a big deal? Can you give me an example?"
Wang Peng laughed and asked, "How is Wang Cheng now? What is he doing?"
"Haha." Du Lei snapped his fingers. "Brother, I knew you'd ask this. I'll call Mingyue over."
Du Lei took out his phone from his pocket and called Hu Mingyue. A few minutes later, Hu Mingyue arrived in a hurry.
She's wearing a floral dress today, which has a strong vintage feel, making her look like a rural woman from the 1970s or 80s.
Wang Peng couldn't help but laugh when he saw his attire.
"Hmph!" Hu Mingyue gripped the hem of her skirt with both hands and twirled twice in front of Wang Peng. "Brother, isn't my skirt pretty?"
"It looks good." Wang Peng couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Du Lei couldn't help himself either, and quickly turned his back to Hu Mingyue, grinning silently.
Hu Mingyue got angry, walked over to him, and stomped hard on his foot, causing Du Lei to cry for help while clutching his foot in pain.
Wang Peng hadn't felt this relaxed in a long time; he felt comfortable all over and exceptionally good-hearted.
After joking around for a while, Du Lei and Hu Mingyue sat on the sofa opposite Wang Peng, their faces returning to seriousness.
Hu Mingyue said, "Brother, my men have been secretly following Wang Cheng. His life is very regular. He sleeps at home during the day and basically never goes out. At night, he goes to bars and nightclubs to drink, living a life of debauchery, as if the whole world owes him money."
Du Lei scratched his head and said softly, "At this rate, his 1.5 million won't last long. He spends a few thousand today, a few thousand tomorrow, and it'll be gone in no time."
Hu Mingyue sneered: "What can he do now? Work for someone else? He'd definitely not be used to it. Invest and start a business? He doesn't seem to have any professional skills."
"Mingyue, keep a close eye on him," Wang Peng said. "Even a dozing tiger is still a tiger; we can't let our guard down."
