Chapter 152 Zhou Yanli wants to acquire Weiting Technology
Since Lin Shu met He Yuanhang, he had never seen him like this today.
"He Yuanhang..."
Lin Shu was no longer able to speak.
She walked up to He Yuanhang and wanted to comfort him, but suddenly He Yuanhang reached out and hugged her in his arms.
Lin Shu was startled and tried to break free from his arms, but heard a choking sound coming from He Yuanhang's throat.
"Don't move. Just let me hold you like this. Just for a little while."
He leaned on his shoulder. The man in his twenties suddenly became as fragile as a big boy.
Lin Shu's eyes were red, and he let him hug her quietly.
Her hand unconsciously touched his back and patted it gently.
"I've never felt so useless. I'm the one who should be shouldering the responsibility in this family. Yet, I've let three people in their forties take the blame for me and go to jail. I'm truly useless."
He Yuanhang was still choking up as he spoke.
He held Lin Shu for a while, but Lin Shu didn't move. Only when they separated did Lin Shu notice that his left hand was deeply bitten and bleeding.
If He Yuanhang hadn't desperately stuffed his hands into his mouth to stifle his sobs, he would have cried like a baby.
Lin Shu still remembered when he came to the He family many years ago, and how Mr. and Mrs. He doted on He Yuanhang and took care of him in every possible way.
Old Master He always followed He Yuanhang around with a loud voice, scolding him from time to time, and even leaning on his crutches to threaten the only grandson in the family to beat him.
But no matter what, Lin Shu could feel that the He family truly loved He Yuanhang.
He Yuanhang's rebelliousness has never stopped since he was in his teens.
Even though many people at his age have married and had children and have family responsibilities, he still fights against his original family alone.
While enjoying the wealth brought by the previous generation with a guilty conscience, he is also constantly rebelling against his family like a rebellious teenager.
However, this time Lin Shu felt that He Yuanhang had changed.
"He Yuanhang, they will be fine. Don't worry, I will never let anything happen to them."
Lin Shu knew that all this was related to Zhou Yanli.
Back then, she had worked tirelessly to help Zhou Yanli build connections for him. Now, Zhou Yanli, in both career and ability, had reached heights she could never reach.
The knife that Lin Shu spent six years sharpening finally returned to him.
The person whom I once trusted and loved the most finally became the person whom I was most cruel to.
He Yuanhang grabbed Lin Shu's wrist, his eyes firm and revealing an unprecedented sense of responsibility.
"Shushu, don't get involved. You can't solve this problem. I don't want you to be threatened by others. I don't want you to beg for help on my behalf.
Our He family is not all dead yet. I am still alive, am I not? "
He Yuanhang knew what Lin Shu wanted to do, but the grudges and hatred between them had lasted for so many years, and Lin Shu still hadn't waited for that bastard to be sincere to her.
He Yuanhang was even more unwilling to see Lin Shu return to that kind of person for his sake.
He almost gritted his teeth and spat out a few words: "Don't go to beg him. Don't go."
Lin Shu forced an ugly smile and gave He Yuanhang one last deep hug.
"Don't worry, I won't trade my dignity for anything. He Yuanhang, wait for my good news."
Lin Shu turned around, tears already flowing uncontrollably.
He Yuanhang chased after him.
Lin Shu was already sitting in the car.
"Lin Shu..."
In the rearview mirror, He Yuanhang tried his best to catch up with Lin Shu's car. But gradually, she finally disappeared from his sight.
Lin Shu's mood gradually calmed down.
She knew what Zhou Yanli wanted. Over the years, no one knew Zhou Yanli better than her.
Zhou Yanli has always been very generous on the surface and allowed her to be willful and free.
However, when she was weaving a huge net and wanted to fight back, she found that there was an even bigger net behind her that trapped her invisibly.
She wasn't the only one playing this game. Perhaps Zhou Yanli had already made plans behind her back the moment she decided to leave.
When I returned to the Sheng family, Sheng Zhaoting had also returned.
The tear marks on Lin Shu's face had long since dried. Seeing Sheng Zhaoting and Sheng Ye playing a jigsaw puzzle in front of the coffee table, Lin Shu inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.
"aunt……"
Sheng Ye still called her obediently.
But he was not as cheerful and lively as other children. After being polite, he continued to play his jigsaw puzzle game silently.
Sheng Zhaotingting stood up from the sofa and looked at Lin Shu.
"Have you met He Yuanhang?"
Lin Shu nodded.
Sheng Zhaoting: "It's not convenient for me to come forward to rescue them right now. But I'm already working on their behalf. Kyoto is so big and it's a place where power is concentrated. We can always find a way."
"Well, big brother, you should take care of yourself during this period. Remember to keep in touch with me."
Sheng Zhaoting was slightly surprised to hear that she was planning to leave.
"Don't you plan to stay a few days longer?"
Lin Shu shook his head, a reassuring calmness on his face.
"I'm relieved to see that Big Brother is safe. There are too many things waiting for me to do in Haicheng. I have already booked a flight to leave this afternoon."
She wanted to go back. Only by going back could she save He Yuanhang.
Although his elder brother didn't say anything, his study was brightly lit all night yesterday. Lin Shu guessed that this matter was very difficult.
If she had spent a little more time thinking about it before establishing Weiting Technology, she would not have dragged He Yuanhang into it.
If the He family hadn't gotten involved in this, nothing would have happened to my eldest brother.
It was she who dragged them into the water, and now she is the only one who can bring them ashore.
If the Lin family was still the same Lin family six years ago, she wouldn't have to be afraid of Zhou Yanli at all now.
But six years had passed, the political and business circles had been completely transformed, and her grandfather was no longer around. No matter who she went to now, they wouldn't give her the honor.
It was she who gave the knife to Zhou Yanli, and the boomerang hit her. She had no choice but to admit her bad luck and bow to him.
"I won't stop you from doing anything, but just promise me, big brother, that you'll always protect yourself first. As long as you have the green mountains, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood."
Lin Shu was very touched.
Sheng Zhaoting is not like his brothers in other families, who are either overprotective or extremely controlling.
He treated her differently. No matter what Lin Shu wanted to do, Sheng Zhaoting would only silently support her and give her the help she needed. He would never discourage her or pour cold water on her.
Even at this critical moment of life and death, Sheng Zhaoting still respected her choice.
But Lin Shu didn't know that the worry and heartache revealed in Sheng Zhaoting's eyes the moment she turned around.
In the afternoon, they went to the airport, and Sheng Zhaoting and Sheng Ye personally saw her off to board the plane.
Sheng Ye gave the puzzle he had put together to Lin Shu.
"Aunt, this is a gift from me to you."
Lin Shu touched Sheng Ye's head lovingly, with tears in his eyes.
"Aunt will come to see you and dad next time."
She didn't know when the next time would be. She just hoped Sheng Zhaoting was safe.
"Take care of yourself……"
Sheng Zhaoting hugged Lin Shu, and the love of an older brother for his younger sister was fully revealed at this moment.
Tears welled up in Lin Shu's eyes as the plane finally entered the clouds. She sat in the business class and looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside, her face gradually becoming silent.
A few hours later the plane landed at Haicheng Airport.
Yu Yu's car was parked outside the airport waiting for her.
"Ms. Lin, something happened at Weiting Technology..."
Yu Yu didn't want to talk about the company's affairs at this time, but the matter was urgent and she had to let Lin Shu know as soon as possible.
"Um……"
Lin Shu nodded faintly and got into the back seat of the black business car.
"The government cooperation plan we signed with Commissioner Sheng was abruptly terminated. The billions of yuan we earned from the game were all invested in drone development, and the funds for those projects are now on hold.
I've also contacted Commissioner Sheng. He said there were some issues with the project recently and asked us to put the plan on hold for now."
Yu Yu's voice sounded a little anxious, and his speech speed was much faster.
"Also, our original plan to go public overseas has been terminated. Without external funding, the drone development project will be forced to be extended indefinitely.
All our previous efforts would be wasted. Furthermore, an unnamed company offered to acquire Weiting Technology for $5 billion.
Miss Lin, I should have told you this yesterday. Since you weren't here, I had to wait until today."
Lin Shu listened to Yu Yu's report quietly, a mocking smile on his lips.
"Five billion?"
She invested all the money she earned from the racing game, plus external investment and her own jewelry design and painting income over the years, which was just enough to make this amount.
An unnamed company acquired Weiting Technology and calculated the figures so accurately. She couldn't think of anyone else except Zhou Yanli.
Lin Shu secretly clenched his fists, his well-manicured, rounded nails digging deep into his flesh.
"I checked the accounts with the Finance Department. The total cost of developing new drones and all other company expenses over the past few months is almost exactly five billion.
If we agree to the acquisition plan now, we will get an additional 300 million in revenue. The other company has made an offer, and if we delay for another month, their revenue will drop by 500 million every month until we agree to the acquisition."
Lin Shu listened silently to Yu Yu's words. That is to say, now that she agreed to sell Weiting Technology to Zhou Yanli, he was willing to bear all her previous losses and even give her an additional 300 million yuan in funds for her working capital.
If she didn't agree now and kept postponing the time, he would continue to acquire them by lowering the price by 500 million per month on average.
Zhou's is now the leading enterprise in Haicheng, but Weiting Technology is unknown.
Originally, once Zhou Yanli took action, no other company would interfere in the acquisition of the company.
What's more, they are a newly emerging small technology company, which has no value at all to other companies.
Zhou Yanli played a brilliant chess game. Lin Shu realized then that while she was meticulously planning her strategy from the very beginning, there had been a fierce tiger watching from behind.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it.
It turned out that she was the one who brought him up, and he is even better than her.
Yu Yu was still waiting for the next step.
Lin Shu opened his lips gently.
"Tell him to stop dreaming."
