Wen Ying is renowned in the business world for her sharp vision and swift, accurate, and ruthless execution. This ability has fueled the Zhou family's rapid growth. However, when this same skill is applied to Zhou Liheng, he experiences the same pain his competitors have endured.
He was in a critical position and had no choice.
If he refused to divorce and allowed the other party to upload the evidence, he would not only be ruined in his circle, but also lose his reputation in front of netizens nationwide. Although Zhou Liheng looked down on those who earned a few thousand yuan a month, he knew in his heart that if the boycott became louder, it would indeed affect the company's stock price.
"Is it really going to come to this?" Zhou Liheng felt truly sad when he thought about the property that was going to be divided up.
Wen Ying just looked at him with cold eyes.
"Okay, I promise you." Zhou Liheng's voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, "But I also have a request. You must sell your company shares to me!"
If Wen Ying gave all those shares to Shi Miao, Zhou Liheng would be so angry that he would vomit blood.
Wen Ying curled her lips and said, "Sure, as long as you are willing to buy it back at the market price."
Only then did she realize that she had been fooled for so many years. How could Wen Ying let Zhou Liheng take advantage of her?
Wen Ying's shares were worth at least 20 billion. If Zhou Liheng wanted to buy them back, he simply didn't have that much cash on hand. He would probably have to transfer most of his real estate, land, and other company stocks.
Zhou Liheng asked, "Aren't you going to give some of your shares to Yuntang and Liuan? They are your sons too."
Wen Ying was deeply disappointed with her two sons. Aside from their first visit to the hospital to see Shi Miao, they'd spent the rest of their time preparing a new house for Zhou Man, completely ignoring their own sister, who was still in critical condition. They didn't even think Zhou Liheng's fault was serious, and even thought she was making a big deal out of nothing. Ultimately, they were just being complacent, believing that as their mother, she would forgive them no matter what they did and that they should be willing to sacrifice for them.
Wen Ying said calmly, "Don't they have you?"
They chose Zhou Liheng and Zhou Man, while Wen Ying chose Shi Miao. Fortunately, she still had Miao Miao.
Zhou Liheng heard her tone and realized that his sons' behavior over the past few days had hurt her heart. He secretly cursed his two sons for being stupid and not knowing how to win over their mother. At this moment, he completely forgot that he was relieved when he first learned that his two sons were loyal to Zhou Man, thinking that they had consciences.
He could only console himself by thinking that Yuntang and Liu'an were Wen Ying's biological sons, destined to inherit the family business. As a mother, Wen Ying would only be angry with them for a short while, not forever. She wouldn't be so rebellious as to leave all her property to Shi Miao, only to have it benefit an outsider. That would be a laughing stock.
He just acted very generous and said, "It's up to you. It's yours after all. You decide."
Wen Ying chuckled, "I'm glad you know."
Zhou Liheng gnashed his teeth in hatred at her cold expression. Then he thought, there are benefits to Wen Ying divorcing him. He could take Manman back, whose destiny would bring him good luck. With Master Shan's help, the Zhou family's business would surely soar. Wen Ying wouldn't benefit from it, and if she became jealous and wanted to get back together with him, he would have no choice but to let her control her. He imagined Wen Ying bowing to him, and his mood brightened up a lot.
For the following period of time, Zhou Liheng basically negotiated with Wen Ying about the distribution of property.
For him, the most important thing is the company's shares.
After learning their parents were serious about getting a divorce, Zhou Yuntang and Zhou Liu'an stopped trying to offer their support to Zhou Man. Initially, the two brothers tried to persuade her with earnest words, only to be blocked by the increasingly annoying Wen Ying. Later, after Zhou Liheng spoke to them, they changed their tune, adopting the filial, "As long as Wen Ying is happy, she's fine with anything she does" approach.
Regardless of whether they were pretending or not, this at least saved Wen Ying a lot of effort.
The day before Shi Miao was discharged from the hospital, the couple, who were once known for their love in the wealthy circle, quietly obtained a divorce certificate.
Zhou Liheng's assets had shrunk by half, the bulk of which was company shares, followed by several houses and hundreds of millions in cash. The rest had basically been given to Wen Ying, and he held his breath, waiting for Wen Ying to regret it.
On the other hand, Wen Ying, who had successfully divorced, felt relieved, and the anxiety that had been weighing on her heart was relieved a little.
News of their divorce wasn't deliberately spread. Wen Ying simply moved all her belongings out of their old house. Changes in Zhou Group's shareholdings sparked speculation, but since neither party was willing to explain, their inquiries yielded no results.
After receiving the divorce certificate, the Wen family immediately set up a brazier and prepared a feast to celebrate. If Wen Ying hadn't wanted to keep a low profile, they would have even planned to throw a banquet.
The more they investigated Zhou Liheng's affairs, the more disgusted they felt.
However, both Zhou Yuntang and Zhou Liuan found excuses to turn down the family banquet.
Wen Chenghan was very unhappy, "I think they are just afraid of offending their own father, so they don't come enough."
Zhou Liuan gave the excuse of shooting a magazine cover, while Zhou Yuntang said that he had an appointment that he couldn't turn down.
Wang Hui said slowly, "Maybe in their minds, Zhou Liheng might have illegitimate children outside, so the property may not be given to them. But Aying definitely won't have any illegitimate children, so the property will be divided between them sooner or later."
So for them, it is more important to please Zhou Liheng.
