Chapter 335: Vicious Nature
Her voice choked with sobs. "To be frank, these things are all my fault. I like Han Xi. Even though I know he doesn't like me, I still refuse to give up and insist on fighting for him. I was also the one who switched the construction materials. I know I was wrong. I..."
"Qian Rui girl, you are confused too!"
Han Guodong was so disappointed with his friend, "You and Xiu Jin grew up together, but there's no first come, first served rule when it comes to liking someone. Xiu Jin's heart isn't with you, so you should just let it go. You used all these tricks, and what did you get in the end?!"
Sheng Qianrui sobbed with red eyes, "I know, I know everything, but my heart is beyond my control. I don't know why I have become like this..."
"That's fine. The relationship between you young people is inherently muddled, and it's hard to tell right from wrong. But how dare you tamper with the building materials?"
"I......."
Han Guodong's face was gloomy. "Do you know that if you use substandard materials and something goes wrong, it can be a matter of life and death! This is no longer a matter of a moment's thought; it's the wickedness of human nature!"
These words are extremely serious.
Sheng Qianrui even forgot to cry for a moment.
She lowered her head, her hair hanging messily on the side of her face. One could only feel that she was trembling all over, but no one could see the expression on her face.
Or Sheng Jinghui couldn't bear to see his daughter like this, so he took the blame again, "Uncle Han, this is all my fault. I really know I was wrong, but you also know that Shengshi is my father's life's work. If it is destroyed in my hands, how can I explain it to my father in the afterlife?"
Seeing that Han Guodong was still unmoved with a stern face, Sheng Jinghui also knelt down, "Uncle Han, please help your nephew one more time!"
"Get up." Han Guodong frowned. "What a shame."
Sheng Jinghui remained unmoved.
Han Guodong looked at Sheng Qianrui and said, "Help your father up quickly."
Sheng Qianrui's eyes were red. She looked at Han Guodong and then at her father, but did not go to help him immediately.
Han Guodong's face was gloomy. "If you don't get up, both of you will be kicked out!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Sheng Qianrui hurriedly supported her father, and the two of them got up from the ground one after the other.
After sitting down again, Sheng Jinghui seemed to have aged a dozen years and whispered, "Uncle Han, for the sake of my father, can you..."
Han Guodong finally let go of the teacup in his hand, his old eyes sharp as an eagle: "Jinghui, your father saved me on the battlefield that year, and I will remember this favor for the rest of my life. Shengshi has suffered losses in recent years, and you should know how many times I helped you behind Xiujin's back."
He paused, "But the business world is like a battlefield. This time, you and your daughter really went too far. You angered Xiu Jin. He is now the head of the Han Group, so his decision is the Han Group's decision."
“…”
"Go away, I can't help you."
When the Sheng family father and daughter came out of the old house covered in dust and dirt, Han Xi also received the news.
Han Xi's Office
Lin Mo hurriedly pushed the door open and walked in: "Boss, the Sheng family's father and daughter went to the old house."
Han Xi's pen tip paused slightly as he signed.
Old house.
"Li Duo, what do you think the human heart is made of?" Han Guodong put down the teacup, looked at the direction where the Sheng family father and daughter left, and said helplessly.
Li Duo stood straight and said seriously, "Commander, the human heart is made of flesh."
"Yeah?"
Han Guodong was silent for a long time, then murmured, "Then why can't it be filled?"
......
Less than half an hour after the Sheng father and daughter left, a car slowly drove into the gate.
After a while, a slender figure got out of the car and walked towards this side with slow steps.
Han Guodong still sat in the chair without moving, watching his grandson getting closer and closer, and finally stopping in front of him in a neatly dressed suit. His gloomy face finally brightened up a bit.
"You know everything, don't you? The Sheng family father and daughter just came to see me."
Han Xi pulled out a chair opposite the old man and sat down. Although he leaned against the back of the chair, he was still as straight as a pine tree. "Grandpa, do you think I should let them go?"
The old man answered the question irrelevantly: "Back in the battlefield, his father took a bullet for me."
He sighed, "I have to repay this favor."
The old man is soft-hearted after all.
It is said that debts of favor are the hardest to repay. If possible, the old man would rather be shot to death by the enemy on the battlefield than sign this debt that can never be repaid!
The grandfather and grandson sat quietly for a long time. As the sun set, Han Xi pushed away the chair and stood up.
"The weather is getting cold, Grandpa, please go back to your room early."
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
But the old man's voice came from behind, "What are you going to do?"
"......." Han Xi could hear the nervousness in the old man's voice.
He remained silent, his back turned, and motionless, his handsome face hidden in the afterglow of the setting sun. After a long while, he spoke in a deep voice, "I can retain the Sheng family's 10% stake in the Taihu Bay project, but they must take 5% of Shengshi shares in exchange. Also, Sheng Qianrui is not allowed to interfere in any of Shengshi Group's business again."
"......" Han Guodong breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this was the biggest concession his grandson had made.
"Just as you say."
---
Shengshi Group.
Sheng Jinghui and his daughter had just returned to the company in a dejected state, and had not yet figured out how to explain to the company's shareholders, when they received a call from Han.
“Ten percent?!”
Sheng Jinghui was stunned. "You want us to give up 5% of the shares in exchange?!"
Looking at the nervous assistant, Sheng Jinghui could no longer endure it and finally grabbed the teacup beside him and smashed it out.
With a bang!
The teacup shattered and knocked over the ornaments on the shelf next to it, with several loud noises heard at once.
The assistant who conveyed the content of Han's call was so frightened that his body trembled and he huddled aside, not daring to make a sound.
"What does Han Xi think of us, the Sheng family? A beggar who can be summoned and dismissed at will?!"
Sheng Jinghui was rarely this angry.
As the patriarch of the Sheng family and the chairman of Shengshi Group, although the company's business has been stagnant, given his reputation, few things can really anger him.
But this time, Sheng Jinghui was really forced into a hurry!
"A young boy who has been in charge of the Han Group for a few years really thinks he's serious! He wants shares in our Shengshi Group, he's dreaming!"
Sheng Jinghui's eyes were fierce, "If Han Xi doesn't give us Shengshi a chance to survive, then at worst we'll both die together!"
Sheng Qianrui stared at the project change notification she had just received on her phone, digging her nails deep into her palms: "Han Xi... is he really so cold-blooded..."
"Qian Rui, he's no longer the same kid he was back then. He's so ruthless that he doesn't even care about his own father. And there's still no news about Sun Zhixin. He must have been behind it!"
Sheng Jinghui paced anxiously: "We can't give him the shares no matter what. With Han Xi's methods, 5% of the shares is just a brick for him to knock on the door of Shengshi. As long as it falls into his hands, it won't be long before we can even keep Shengshi!"
How could Sheng Qianrui not know this?
but.......
"In the current situation, what else can we do if we don't agree to his conditions?"
