Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat! Chapter 294 - 32: The Disabled Tycoon’s Ex-Wife Refuses to B

"Sorry, President Tao, our contract clearly states that if the paynt isn’t made within the agreed ti, there’s nothing we can do. I really sympathize with your situation, and I believe you can definitely break through the difficulties.

But before that, the shares you mortgaged to our company have already automatically beco our property, totaling thirty percent, which precisely offsets the debt you owe us.

If you still need assistance, you can still borrow money by mortgaging more shares. Finally, I wish us a pleasant cooperation."

Without giving Tao Xinzhu a chance to speak, Mike politely hung up the phone.

In the empty office, Tao Xinzhu suddenly seed to have aged ten years as he collapsed in his chair, his gaze blankly sweeping over the machines in front of him, with stubble already sprouting overnight.

"It’s over."

He muttered to himself.

"Completely over."

His father still didn’t know these investnts were made by mortgaging the company’s shares. Now not only was the company’s money depleted, but even the majority of its equity was now in soone else’s hands.

What should he do now?

Frantically, he retrieved the business card Mike had given him before, and seeing the company address on it, he imdiately drove over.

anwhile, Mike seed to have been waiting for a long ti, sitting early in the office drinking coffee, even instructing his secretary to pour a cup for Tao Xinzhu.

"President Tao, you want to continue the cooperation?"

"Why? Why did Guangjing dical obtain such a cash flow in just a few months? Was it you? Did you collude with them to trick ?!"

Mike shrugged helplessly, looking innocent.

"President Tao, I’m a businessman, an investor. People in my line of work understand one fundantal principle, which is not to put all eggs in one basket.

You ca to to borrow money; you can’t forbid others from doing the sa, especially when they offer benefits. Why would I refuse?"

Hearing this, Tao Xinzhu finally understood he’d been deceived.

The foreign man in front of him had been investing in Guangjing dical while also investing in his company. The two companies were sworn enemies, and yet he still did this, ultimately getting the best of both worlds, gaining both profits and Tao Xin dical’s shares!

Now, he held thirty percent of the shares, making him the largest shareholder of Tao Xin dical!

And what about himself?

Cheated out of everything!

Tao Xinzhu stared at Mike, his eyes about to burst out, losing control and roaring, rushing towards Mike.

"Why!! Why did you screw over?! Why did you do this to !! You want to destroy , don’t you!"

Just then, several bodyguards broke in, restraining Tao Xinzhu before he could reach Mike, pinning him to the desk, rendering him immobile.

Mike, anwhile, still leisurely sipped his coffee, calmly watching the frantic Tao Xinzhu.

"Don’t you Chinese have a saying that victories and defeats are common for soldiers? Investnt inherently involves risk; you can’t expect to make a profit without bearing the risk, right?

Besides, it’s not like I wanted this either; I lost billions in investnt failures. The shares you gave are nowhere near worth that much. Should I cry in your dad’s office too if everyone were like you?"

"I gave you all the machines

"You!! I gave you everything!! Give back my shares!"

Mike sneered, losing his patience.

"Do you think this is a ga in an ivory tower? Go ho and drink milk for a few more years - the business world is not for you. Please leave."

Tao Xinzhu was dragged away.

Facing his malicious and hateful gaze, Mike remained indifferent, even a bit smug.

He turned around and shouted toward the office’s lounge.

"That kid sure hates now, but look at you, making money and getting shares without being loathed."

The lounge door opened, and Jiang Lai, dressed casually, walked out, smiling as he took a sip of the untouched coffee ant for Tao Xinzhu.

"Isn’t this your old trade? Besides, I co up with the strategies, and you implent them. We’ve had such a pleasant cooperation."

Mike snorted.

"You’re ruthless; you even want to swallow the childhood friend’s company. If Tao Xinzhu knew you set him up from the start, he’d probably want to take you down with him."

"What’s a childhood friend worth?"

"So, what now? What are you going to do with the shares you’ve swindled, worth over a billion?"

Jiang Lai glanced at him with disdain.

"What else? Make money, of course. It seems your brain might be malfunctioning."

"Bid for that land in South City?"

"What else? We already own hospitals, schools, shopping malls... Next, we’ll build skyscrapers to profit from the rich."

Mike looked at Jiang Lai, excitent glimring in his eyes.

"I heard Mo Zhoujing is determined to get that project."

"Then let’s teach him a lesson."

——

As the year’s end approached, families were preparing for reunions.

The Jiang Family headed off to Kun City to celebrate the New Year, where it was warm and humid year-round. The four of them spent a harmonious New Year, returning to the villa on the third day.

Jiang Ruantian hadn’t actively contacted Mo Zhoujing for a while. During the entire New Year, she had been in touch with Tao Xinzhu, listening to him talk about complications with going public, and she was constantly worried.

As soon as she returned, Jiang Ruantian saw Tao Xinzhu’s car parked beside the villa.

Feeling a stir in her heart, she made an excuse about visiting a friend and quickly got into Tao Xinzhu’s car.

The man seed more composed and reserved, yet his smile remained gentle and clean.

"How’s the company’s situation?"

"Nothing major, but the first thing you say to at New Year’s is about this?"

Feeling a little shy, Jiang Ruantian handed him a prepared gift.

"I received the car you sent, it must have cost you a lot. This scarf, I knitted it myself as a present for you."

Just a scarf?

Tao Xinzhu looked at the gift and felt a cold sneer inside, but on the surface, he appeared genuinely surprised and pleased.

"You went through such effort, knitting sothing for yourself. I really like it."

The two sat in the car, the air conditioning turned up, and the music slowly growing gentle and intimate. Tao Xinzhu reached out to hold Jiang Ruantian’s hand, leaning in slowly...

On the villa’s third floor, Jiang Lai watched through binoculars with great interest, chatting with Little Buding as he did.

"Mo Zhoujing seems destined to get betrayed; I guess we should make his company’s stock value go up to balance it out."

"If this gets found out, would Mo Zhoujing still want her?"

Jiang Lai smiled.

"Then just don’t let him find out."

"The old protagonist cuckolded Mo Zhoujing, and now the female main character does it too."

Rembering the original plot where the original protagonist was played around by the male and female leads, Jiang Lai felt much more satisfied watching the current scene unfold.
