“Although the situation is a little tense, we can’t panic,” Sun Ce said. “It’s just like a game of tug-of-war. Now is the time to get excited. Whoever panics first will lose.”
“His strength is not enough to make me panic.” Zhao Mo held the pen in his hand and spun it repeatedly. “If I can’t even defeat him, won’t I, Zhao Mo, have wasted my time building my reputation until now?”
“That’s right.” Sun Ce chuckled.
“You still have about eight billion yuan worth of stocks in your hands. If you have to dump them, then dump them. You can’t lose the momentum.”
“I think what Old Sun said makes sense. It’s possible that the other party will be unable to bear it the moment you dump 7.9 billion. Who knows, his entire defense might crumble all at once,” Lu Xuan said.
“That’s right. Even if he absorbs the last eight billion, the three of us will borrow another 246 million shares tomorrow. That’ll amount to about 60 billion,” Sun Ce said.
“Add that to the 40 billion you spent previously, and it’ll be a total of 100 billion. With so much money, he’ll undoubtedly be exhausted!”
Zhao Mo smiled. “This is getting more and more interesting. Let’s see how much more he can take!”
…
Zhonghai, Yangcheng TV station.
After the day’s recording ended, Wen Shu walked out of the building with a cup of Starbucks coffee in her hand. She was wearing a white one-step dress and a small suit. She walked toward her Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
Ring!
At this moment, Wen Shu’s phone rang. It was a call from her boyfriend.
She was very glad that she did not break up with him in advance that day, so that she still had someone to rely on.
It was an Internet saying that girls who continued to smile always had options.
This situation was a perfect example of this.
“Shu, you should have gotten off work by now. I’ll look for you now. The restaurant has been booked. Let’s go eat Faguon food.”
“There’s no need to pick me up. Let’s just meet at the entrance of the restaurant.”
“Okay, okay, okay. I’m closer to the restaurant. I’ll be there in about ten minutes. Don’t be anxious. Drive slowly.”
Wen Shu hung up the phone. There wasn’t any hint of joy on her face.
Looking at the lights outside the window, Wen Shu sighed secretly.
Every time she thought back to that night a month ago, her heart would be filled with regrets that she still could not let go of.
If Cheng Su hadn’t suddenly appeared that night, her relationship with Lin Yi would have improved, right?
With her looks and figure, coupled with her profound knowledge, she should have had many common interests with him.
However, Cheng Su’s appearance disrupted all her plans.
“Damn it! It’s all your fault!”
Wen Shu cursed in her heart.
In her opinion, if not for Cheng Su’s appearance and that b*tch’s instigation, she might not be sitting in a Mercedes-Benz C-Class now, but a Mercedes-Benz G that cost more than three million yuan.
“Sigh…”
Sighing inwardly, Wen Shu took the Starbucks in her hand and placed it next to the steering wheel. She took a photo and posted it on her WeChat Moments.
“In the end, I was the one who suffered.”
Soon, someone replied.
“What happened? Do you want me to take you on a trip to relax?”
Seeing that someone had left a message, Wen Shu’s expression changed. She picked up her phone and replied, “Sure.”
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Just as Wen Shu was waiting for the other party’s reply, she unexpectedly heard someone knocking on her car window.
Wen Shu was shocked. She looked up and saw a man standing outside. He had a high nose bridge, deep-set eyes, and looked a little handsome.
“You… what do you want?” Wen Shu cautiously rolled down the window and asked.
“Beauty, don’t be nervous. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Zhu Feng. I’m the person in charge of the Terra office of Muddy Waters LLC, which is originally from Meiguo.”
“Muddy Waters LLC?” Wen Shu frowned. The defensive look on her face grew stronger. “What kind of company is that? The name is too strange. It’s not auspicious at all.”
“Meiguo is quite different from Huaxia, so please don’t mind the name too much, Miss Wen.” Zhu Feng smiled faintly and said.
“If you have any doubts about my company, you can search up our information on Baidu. At the same time, enter my work number on our company’s official website. You can also find my information there. In short, I have no ill intentions.”
Wen Shu was very vigilant. She held her phone and openly checked Zhu Feng’s details.
Ten minutes later, Wen Shu found Zhu Feng’s information on the webpage and finally believed that he was not a bad person.
Moreover, this was a television station. The security guards were at the door, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
However, what made Wen Shu curious was Muddy Waters LLC itself.
This company’s business was as strange as their name.
They specialized in digging up negative information on major companies and publicizing it in exchange for profits.
Such a company refreshed Wen Shu’s understanding of the world.
It turned out that people could earn money doing things like this, and the profits were not small either.
“What do you want with me?”
Due to Muddy Waters’s strange profit model, Wen Shu was still on guard against Zhu Feng.
“Miss Wen, I have something to discuss with you. I hope you can let down your guard.”
Zhu Feng took out a bank card from his pocket and said,
“There’s 200,000 yuan in this card. If Miss Wen is willing to spare a little time to chat with me, this card is yours.”
Wen Shu’s eyes moved and her gaze fell on the bank card in Zhu Feng’s hand.
This 200,000 yuan was almost equivalent to two years of her salary.
If he didn’t have any other excessive requests and just wanted to have a simple chat, she could still accept it.
“Sure. What do you want to talk to me about?”
Zhu Feng looked around. “This is not the place to talk. There’s a Starbucks nearby. Shall we go there?”
“Okay.”
Wen Shu believed that if the other party was a liar, he would not ask her to go to Starbucks.
Thinking of this, Wen Shu called her boyfriend.
“I have something on at work. I might have to work late, so I won’t be coming.”
“Not coming? But I’ve already made reservations.”
“My department has to work overtime. I have to focus on work.”
Wen Shu hung up the phone and smiled at Zhu Feng. “Let’s go.”
“I’m really sorry for interrupting your meal with your boyfriend.”
“I’m still single. He’s not my boyfriend. He’s just chasing after me. It’s fine even if I don’t go.”
“That’s good. I won’t feel guilty anymore,” Zhu Feng said with a smile.
Wen Shu locked the car and walked slowly with Zhu Feng toward the entrance of the TV station, where a Starbucks was located just 100 meters away.
During this walk, Wen Shu realized that Zhu Feng’s appearance was quite good.
Although he couldn’t compare to Lin Yi, he was still more attractive than most men she knew.
Moreover, his eyes were sunken, and his nose bridge was high. He also had a mixed-race appearance that gave him an exotic charm.
Soon, the two of them arrived at Starbucks. Zhu Feng said gently,
“Miss Wen, what would you like to drink? I think a cup of Matcha latte would be most suitable for a lady like you.”
Such a gentlemanly action inexplicably made Wen Shu’s heart race.
“Alright, I’ll have a matcha latte.”
Zhu Feng nodded and looked at the Starbucks clerk.
“An Americano, a Matcha latte. Make the Americano with only ice and no water. Make the Matcha latte with half sugar and soy milk. Less ice.”
“Okay, one moment.”
Wen Shu had a good impression of Zhu Feng as he ordered the dishes with great familiarity and made additional requests.
Usually, when she came here, she would order casually. She never knew that you could make such request.
It seemed that people who worked in American companies had unique insights into coffee.
The two of them found a quiet corner and sat down. Soon, the waiter brought the coffee.
Wen Shu resisted the urge to take a photo. She looked at Zhu Feng and said,
“Mr. Chu, what did you want to talk to me about?”
“It’s like this. We got some information on a company. Before this, you seem to have met a person called Lin Yi. I’m wondering how much you know about him.”
