Chapter 186: Pretending to be Confused
by SunflowerChen Feng really didn’t understand what Guo Mengyao was saying, but seeing that she was a little angry, he wasn’t stupid enough to ask clearly.
It’s rare to be confused. Chen Feng just looked at her with a faint smile on his face.
Seeing that Chen Feng was no longer pretending to be confused and innocent, Guo Mengyao was very satisfied. This represented his absolute trust in her.
“As for Sister Li’s husband, do you want to say hello first? Now that her husband has just been detained for investigation, it should be in time to rescue him, right? Of course, if things are difficult, we’ll just deny it. Anyway, Xue Jun has been arrested now and is considered useless. Sister Li’s shares are not very important. At most, I’ll take a loss and buy them back according to the original repurchase agreement, as a little compensation for her.”
Hearing Guo Mengyao’s words, Chen Feng was really confused.
However, he also knew that Xue Jun and Sister Li’s husband had both been arrested. He really wanted to ask about this matter, but seeing that Guo Mengyao had already decided that these two things were his credit, he would only make her angry if he asked.
This was a bit interesting.
For what reason did Guo Mengyao decide that he had done both of these things?
Chen Feng immediately thought of his European emperor attribute. From this point of view, it seemed that Xue Jun and Sister Li’s bad luck might really have something to do with him.
“How long will Xue Jun be locked up this time? Do you know?”
Chen Feng asked tentatively.
Guo Mengyao gave Chen Feng a beautiful eye roll and said with a slight smile, “Aren’t you clearer about this than I am? He intentionally injured someone this time, and it was a serious injury. He can’t escape a few years in prison. The specifics still depend on the degree of the victim’s injury. If it causes serious disability, it will be at least ten years.”
Hearing this, Chen Feng was really shocked.
Xue Jun and Sister Li’s husband had an accident at the same time. Combining these two things, it was strange no matter how you looked at it.
This was too much of a coincidence! It just so happened that both of them had offended Guo Mengyao, and it just so happened that he wanted to help Guo Mengyao… Then, before he could make a move, the matter was resolved so strangely.
It seemed that after his divorce, he had become the son of luck, specially favored by God. All those who opposed him, or those he wanted to deal with, God automatically helped him solve.
Not to mention, this feeling was quite cool.
After the shock, Chen Feng said to Guo Mengyao jokingly, “If I say that their affairs have nothing to do with me, do you believe it?”
Guo Mengyao rolled her eyes at him, “You’re really cautious. There are only the two of us here, and you still won’t admit it. Alright, I can understand. It’s not a bad thing for you to be so cautious. On the contrary, I quite appreciate it. Well, I believe their accident has nothing to do with you.”
Chen Feng was speechless.
Guo Mengyao continued, “I think you can wrap things up now. Don’t leave any clues. Of course, even if I don’t say it, you should have already done it, right?”
At the end, Guo Mengyao looked at him with concern. She looked as if she was afraid that he had committed a crime and would be caught with evidence.
Chen Feng was speechless again in his heart. But seeing her worried look, he still said, “Don’t worry. I don’t know anything about the things you said, let alone participated in them. Their accident has nothing to do with me.”
After being stunned for a moment, Guo Mengyao showed a look of sudden realization and said with a bright smile, “Right! You have nothing to do with these things. They had an accident at the same time this time. They can only blame themselves for being too unlucky.”
After saying this, she leaned over and said in a low voice, “Although Sister Li made a mistake this time and targeted me, to be honest, I’m not very angry. I’ve known her for seven or eight years, and she gave me a lot of help at the beginning. Not long ago, she also called to apologize and beg for mercy, and even said that if her husband was fine, she would transfer the company shares she held to me at the original price. Look, why don’t you help and get her husband out?”
Chen Feng asked curiously, “What was the original price?”
Guo Mengyao gave the answer, “Six million two hundred and fifty thousand.”
“Damn! She was asking for sixty-three million before. That’s a tenfold difference. Is she really willing?” Chen Feng asked in surprise.
Guo Mengyao said with a smile, “Of course she is. You don’t know how much she loves her husband. In addition, she is actually very rich. She is a local native. A few years ago, her family’s house was demolished, and she got seven or eight houses, worth at least seventy or eighty million. In addition, she is not only a shareholder of my company, she also has shares in several other companies, and her annual dividends are over ten million.”
Chen Feng sighed with some emotion, “She’s really a rich woman.”
Guo Mengyao continued, “So, after she knew our strength this time, she was really scared and would definitely not fight us to the death. Especially since you have a hold on her husband. This is her weakness. She is even more unlikely to act recklessly. In this regard, I am very impressed with you. If you had dealt with Sister Li directly, she might not have given in. But by dealing with her husband, she immediately gave in.”
“It seems she really cares about her husband,” Chen Feng said with a smile.
“Of course. Her husband is five or six years younger than her, a top student who graduated from Guangcheng University. He is tall and handsome, has knowledge, and is also very capable. He is already a section chief in his unit at the age of thirty-something. It was Sister Li who had been sponsoring him when he was studying, and also took care of him with warmth and care. Otherwise, such an excellent man would never marry a woman like her.”
Sister Li’s appearance was very ordinary. She had a flat face, a garlic nose, and was at most 1.55 meters tall. Now she was middle-aged and had gained weight, and her figure was out of shape.
“This is also Sister Li’s ability.”
Thinking of her failed marriage and comparing it with Sister Li’s, Guo Mengyao couldn’t help but sigh, “She is capable and has a good eye for people. Her husband is also grateful. He married her after passing the civil service examination. He has been very good to her these years. The couple often travel and shop together.
They have a son and a daughter, and their family is happy. She is a proper winner in life. Of course, if her husband can’t get through this hurdle this time, her happy family will be greatly discounted. Give me a word, can her husband be saved?”
Seeing this, Chen Feng knew that Guo Mengyao would not believe him even if he denied it. What’s more, this matter was more or less related to him. Whether it was his jinxed mouth or his great luck, in short, in the dark, these three people seemed to have had bad luck because of his intervention.
“Are you really going to buy back Sister Li’s shares at the original price?” Chen Feng asked.
Guo Mengyao blinked and said, “Of course not. I’m not that shameless. I can’t do such a thing as taking advantage of a fire. However, I can’t buy them back at the price of more than sixty million. I can buy back her shares for at most thirty million.
By the way, didn’t you say you wanted to invest thirty million? I can transfer the 25% of the shares she holds to you. Of course, you can choose to trade directly with Sister Li. However, I still suggest that you let me buy them back first and then transfer them to you. What do you think?”
Chen Feng was a little tempted, but he still teased, “Didn’t you say before that you would only give me 12% of the shares for thirty million? Now you’re suddenly giving me 25%. I’m afraid I can’t afford it.”
Guo Mengyao rolled her eyes at him and said, “You helped me so much. I have to show my gratitude, right?”
Chen Feng shook his head and said, “Thank you. But you’re giving me too much. I won’t accept it. How about this, you give me 15%.”
Chen Feng was not short of money. The reason he invested in her company was not for himself, but to find a way for his family, especially his parents, to receive dividends every year after his death, to ensure that they would have a worry-free and comfortable old age.
Guo Mengyao was now giving him so many shares because she was grateful to him and had some emotional factors. When he died in the future, his shares would be held by Wu Mengting on his behalf, and then his family would enjoy the dividend benefits. After a long time, Guo Mengyao might feel heartache and regret giving too many shares at the beginning. It was possible that conflicts would arise and cause trouble.
So, for safety’s sake, it was better to take fewer shares. In this way, after Chen Feng’s death, this friendship might be extended to his family.
Of course, Guo Mengyao didn’t know Chen Feng’s thoughts. She looked at him in surprise and asked, “Are you serious?”
Chen Feng nodded, “Of course. 15% is fine. If it’s more, I won’t feel at ease.”
Guo Mengyao was silent for a moment, but her eyes looking at Chen Feng became more and more gentle.
In her mind, Chen Feng didn’t want to take more shares because he didn’t want to take advantage of her. And these shares represented money. Chen Feng was willing to give up this readily available benefit for her, which was undoubtedly true love for her. Or rather, it was undoubtedly that he had her in his heart.
Chen Feng felt very uncomfortable being looked at by her watery eyes. He pretended to be relaxed and said with a smile, “Don’t be moved. The reason I don’t want to take more is that I don’t want to have any conflicts with you in the future. I’m also afraid that you will regret it in the future and affect our pure relationship.”
Their relationship was indeed very pure, a pure classmate relationship and a bed partner relationship.
Hearing his words, Guo Mengyao thought of their relationship and blushed rarely. She nodded with a smile and said, “Alright. I know. Then 15% it is.”
Guo Mengyao thought that Chen Feng was being chauvinistic, so she readily agreed.
In addition, she felt that their future was still long. If they developed further, it was very likely that they would get married. At that time, they would be a couple, and there would be no need to care about the company’s shares.
“That’s a good girl. In the future, you will do a good job of making the company bigger and stronger, and strive to let me get my money back in a few years.”
Chen Feng said and reached out his hand very frivolously, gently lifting her chin with his fingers.
Guo Mengyao looked at him with a shy and coquettish look, with a slight smile on her lips.
Such a charming look made Chen Feng’s heart skip a beat, and his fingers unconsciously wanted to move down.
Just at this moment, Guo Mengyao’s phone rang, waking them both up.
Guo Mengyao blushed and quickly took out her phone from her bag. After looking at the number, she said to Chen Feng, “It’s Sister Li.”
“Then you answer it,” Chen Feng said.
“How should I talk to her?” Guo Mengyao asked.
Chen Feng was a little helpless, but since it had come to this, he said along with her words, “You just tell her to wait for two days, and there will be a result then. Don’t make any promises, and don’t say there’s no hope. You first get back the share repurchase agreement and the three million deposit you signed with her before.”
Hearing this, Guo Mengyao knew what to do. She then answered Sister Li’s call and turned on the speakerphone.
“Mengyao, how is it? Have you contacted him? What did he say?”
Sister Li’s tone was helpless. During this period, she had used all the connections she could, but at most she could only find out some simple news. Because the investigation team this time came directly from the province, her previous network of connections was not enough.
She also went to the place designated by the investigation team as required and accepted some questioning. The other party was still relatively polite and did not make things difficult for her. After asking some questions, they let her leave.
But the more this was the case, the more uncertain she was in her heart, and the more she was up and down, afraid that her husband would be sentenced to several years.
“I’ve already told him. He said to let you wait for two days, and there will be a result then,” Guo Mengyao expressed according to Chen Feng’s meaning.
Sister Li was not stupid and quickly asked, “Then will my husband be okay?”
“In this situation, I can’t make any promises to you. But I will ask him to find a way. After all, we have known each other for so many years, right?”
Hearing this, Sister Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief and was also worried. After all, her husband was still in custody, and she hadn’t even seen him before.
“Mengyao, I know your friend is powerful. Ask him to find a way to help. I’m begging you,” Sister Li said in a somewhat humble tone.
“Sister Li, I really didn’t know about this matter at the beginning. I didn’t expect such a thing to happen. Sigh!”
“Sigh!” Sister Li also sighed, and then she took the initiative to say, “Mengyao, I was blinded by lard before. The repurchase agreement of sixty-three million will be considered void. I will also return the three million deposit to you immediately.”
Seeing that Sister Li was so sensible, Guo Mengyao immediately said, “Alright then. Let’s meet tonight. You bring that repurchase agreement to me. As for the three million deposit, you can just transfer it back.”
She would definitely not be polite about this kind of thing. When Sister Li forced her to sign this agreement, she was not polite either.
“Can we meet now? I want to talk to you in person,” Sister Li said eagerly.
Guo Mengyao was a little unwilling, but she still looked at Chen Feng and asked him to decide. Seeing him nod slightly, she said reluctantly, “Alright then. At the Lige Hotel on Huaidong Road, in the coffee shop on the first floor. I’ll wait for you.”
“Okay, okay, I’ll be right there.”
After hanging up the phone, Guo Mengyao asked, “Are you sure you can get her husband out?”
Chen Feng could only say ambiguously, “I’ll only know after I ask.”
“Why don’t you ask now? I can give Sister Li a reply later.”
Chen Feng was in a difficult position. But on the surface, he was very calm. He just nodded slightly, then picked up his phone and said to her, “I’m going to the bathroom. I’ll tell you when I come out.”
After dawdling in the bathroom for a few minutes, Chen Feng came out and said to Guo Mengyao, “This matter is a bit difficult. The investigation procedure has already been initiated over there. There is no turning back. However, I have asked my friend to try his best to get him a lenient treatment. You can just tell her that. We can’t deliberately deceive her. Of course, if her husband is fine in the end. She has to keep her word and transfer the shares to you at a low price.”
After Guo Mengyao’s beautiful eyes rolled, she nodded and said, “Yes. I know. I’ll tell Sister Li.”
