Chapter 118.
The breeze blowing down from the top layer easily stirred up a big storm when it reached the lower layer. Even some small businesses felt the coming storm, and some small businesses that were already poorly managed went bankrupt directly.
Qian Chengshu finally persuaded his father to transfer the shares to him, and signed a contract that was completely unfavorable to him. However, from his perspective, if he could gain enough benefits from this turmoil, the upfront payment would be completely bearable.
After getting the shares, Qian Chengshu immediately made an appointment to meet with the person who had contacted him when his father was just arrested and put in the detention center, and who was willing to pay a large price to buy his shares. Of course, Qian Chengshu did not want to sell his shares, but just planned to use the shares as collateral to get a large sum of money from this person.
"General Qian, your courage is truly admirable. We have a pleasant cooperation." Looking at Qian Chengshu signing the mortgage contract, the man sighed, not knowing whether it was true or false.
"Thank you, Mr. Su, for trusting me. I will redeem my shares as soon as possible." Qian Chengshu thought he was being praised and responded generously.
"Heroes are truly born young. I'll be waiting for good news from General Qian." General Su said, extending his hand.
"Mr. Su, you are too polite. I don't know the funding..." Qian Chengshu realized that those companies were preparing to take action against the Mu family, so they came to Mr. Su to sign the contract so quickly. So he wanted to know when his funds would be in place.
"Don't worry, I'll transfer the money right away, but the amount is a bit large, so it will arrive tomorrow at the latest." Mr. Su said.
"Then I feel relieved." Qian Chengshu breathed a sigh of relief. However, a little delay would not affect what happened later.
President Su saw off Qian Chengshu with brisk steps, and then called someone. After a while, the other end of the phone was answered. President Su, who had always been very arrogant in front of Qian Chengshu, was now humble.
"General Qian, he has signed the contract." General Su said in a report-like manner.
"Very good, thank you for your hard work. Mr. Su, please bring the contract over later." If Qian Chengshu was there, he would definitely be able to recognize the familiar voice on the other end of the phone and would not feel that he had taken advantage of him.
"Okay, General Qian, I'll be right over." said General Su.
So half an hour later, Qian Yirong got the mortgage contract and the supplementary agreement. She showed a satisfied smile. It can be seen that Qian Chengshu was really anxious this time, and the mortgage price was not the best.
Moreover, the contract stated that if Qianchengshu was unable to repay the mortgage amount within the specified time, all the mortgaged shares would belong to President Su. The supplementary agreement signed by Qian Yirong and President Su stipulated that Qian Yirong would pay the money mortgaged to Qianchengshu. Naturally, when the shares of Qianchengshu fell into the hands of President Su, they would all fall into Qian Yirong's hands.
"Thank you, Mr. Su, for coming forward." Qian Yirong said with a smile after everything was settled.
"I didn't do anything. I'd like to thank General Qian for his help," Mr. Su said modestly. "Now that the matter is over, I'll take my leave."
"Okay, let's make an appointment again when we have time," Qian Yirong said, and called Zhou Rongruan, "Secretary Zhou, please send Mr. Su off."
Zhou Rongruan quickly took President Su away from Qian Yirong's office. Qian Yirong and others couldn't wait to call Xu Baiqing as soon as they left, and Xu Baiqing answered the phone almost as soon as the call was connected.
"Rongrong, you're looking for me." Xu Baiqing's voice came from the phone, slightly distorted, but the sweetness in his words was still fully revealed.
"You answered it so quickly. You haven't been waiting for my call, have you?" Qian Yirong asked jokingly.
"Of course," Xu Baiqing admitted it immediately. She said, "I even set up a special call reminder for you, to ensure that I know it's you when the phone rings."
Xu Baiqing's straightforward answer made Qian Yirong a little shy. It was because this was a phone call, not a video call, otherwise Xu Baiqing would definitely see Qian Yirong's blushing face.
"Ahem," Qian Yirong cleared her throat awkwardly. She changed the subject and said, "Qian Chengshu was fooled. He has already mortgaged his shares."
"So fast, he's quite fast." Xu Baiqing said with some surprise.
"No one knows a father better than his son. Although I don't know what Qian Chengshu did, the shares he pledged were with Qian Chaowen. When this is over, you should have more than half of Qian's shares in your hands."
Xu Baiqing heard that Qian Yirong wanted to transfer all of her Qianshi shares to herself after the matter was over. Although this made Xu Baiqing feel Qian Yirong's importance to her, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
"What's wrong?" The long silence on the other end of the phone made Qian Yirong keenly aware of Xu Baiqing's complicated mood, and she immediately asked.
"...I don't think this is a good idea." Xu Baiqing was silent for a moment and then answered truthfully. She knew that it was best not to hide anything between lovers. Since she felt that it was not a good idea, of course she had to say it out loud and find a solution with Qian Yirong.
"I know what you're worried about," Qian Yirong suddenly realized. She realized she was wrong and said, "I didn't consider your feelings. How about this? Your shares in our company are temporarily under my name. I won't give you your annual dividends. Think of it as repaying the loan you took out to buy Qian's shares from me."
Xu Baiqing's eyes lit up when she heard this. She suddenly understood and found the reason why she felt awkward in Qian Yirong's words. In this situation where Qian Yirong gave everything to her, she felt that there was an imbalance between her and Qian Yirong.
But if she had bought the shares of Qian's by herself, she would not feel awkward. Although she was still taken care of by Qian Yirong, Xu Baiqing needed time to grow up. She would eventually grow up to be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Qian Yirong, although Xu Baiqing knew that it was a bit hypocritical for her to think this way.
But Qian Yirong discovered his pretentiousness and immediately tolerated her little awkwardness, which made Xu Baiqing's feelings for Qian Yirong even deeper. Only by keeping her in his heart all the time, Qian Yirong would suddenly realize what he cared about.
"Rongrong..." Xu Baiqing's voice couldn't help but choke. He had never been loved so truly by someone before. At this moment, Xu Baiqing felt that he was willing to do anything for Qian Yirong.
Just when her emotions reached their peak, she suddenly heard the sound of water in her ears. She felt as if she was immersed in water, and seemed to be separated from the current world. A blue light seemed to appear in front of her eyes, and the picture in front of her suddenly distorted, as if she saw something through the water.
However, this abnormality came and went quickly. Xu Baiqing closed her eyes and opened them again, and everything returned to normal. She couldn't help but rub her eyebrows, thinking that she was too tired during this period, so she had hallucinations.
"Bai Qing, Bai Qing..." When I came to my senses, Qian Yirong's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
"...I'm fine." Xu Baiqing spoke, his voice becoming a little hoarse.
"What happened just now? Why didn't you leave my side?" Qian Yirong asked, feeling relieved after hearing Xu Baiqing's reply.
"Nothing..." Xu Baiqing paused and said, "I'm probably a little tired. I was in a trance just now."
"You've been very busy lately," Qian Yirong couldn't help but frown. She said, "I'll pick you up and take you to the hospital for a checkup later. You can't refuse."
Qian Yirong had predicted her prediction, and Xu Baiqing didn't even have time to persuade her not to make a fuss. However, the deep concern in Qian Yirong's words still made Xu Baiqing feel warm in her heart, so she didn't say anything else and agreed.
So after a while Qian Yirong arrived at Qian's. She picked up Xu Baiqing and drove directly to the hospital. At the private hospital, with sufficient funds, Xu Baiqing quickly completed the physical examination.
Fortunately, apart from a little lack of rest, there was nothing wrong with her body, which made Qian Yirong, who had been worried all the way, feel relieved. However, after the physical examination, Qian Yirong did not listen to Xu Baiqing's words to send her back to Qian's, but took her home.
However, Qian Yirong did not forbid Xu Baiqing from working, but this time she was also by his side, paying attention to Xu Baiqing's situation at any time, which made Xu Baiqing feel a sweet trouble.
Moreover, Qian Yirong did not let Xu Baiqing work for long. After they had dinner, Xu Baiqing was urged by Qian Yirong to wash up and rest. In order to prevent Xu Baiqing from getting up secretly to work, Qian Yirong simply slept next to Xu Baiqing.
As a result, Xu Baiqing had no choice but to give up the idea of secretly getting up to work. However, perhaps because he felt very safe with Qian Yirong by his side, Xu Baiqing really fell asleep after a while.
After she fell asleep, the sound of water seemed to ring in her ears again, but this time, in addition to the sound of water, there were also several sounds that made her feel familiar and unfamiliar.
"...The fluctuations...are...really...good..."
"...open your eyes...thank God..."
"...Thanks...Rong...woke up..."
Only a few broken words were heard, but Xu Baiqing felt very nostalgic, as if she had not heard these people's voices for a long time. And from the broken words, she seemed to hear Qian Yirong's name, but she couldn't be sure.
"Bai Qing...Bai Qing..." Qian Yirong's anxious voice sounded in his ears. Xu Baiqing opened his eyes blankly and saw Qian Yirong's panicked look.
"Bai Qing, you finally woke up. Did you have a nightmare just now? Why are you crying all the time?" Qian Yirong finally coaxed Xu Baiqing to sleep, but unexpectedly, after a while, her expression became a little painful, and tears kept falling from the corners of her eyes.
Qian Yirong was so scared that she wanted to wake Xu Baiqing up quickly, thinking that she had dreamed of something terrible. However, she couldn't wake her up for a while. If Xu Baiqing didn't wake up, she would send her to the hospital again.
"I'm crying?" Xu Baiqing asked in confusion, looking dazed and as if he didn't realize it.
"Yes, if you don't believe me, just touch it." Qian Yirong said, lifting Xu Baiqing's hand and placing it on her face.
Xu Baiqing touched the tear marks on her face and was sure that she had indeed cried just now. But now she couldn't remember why she was crying. She was not a fragile person. Since she was sensible, she had cried very few times. How could she suddenly cry for no reason?
