"If you don’t say what you’re going to do, I absolutely won’t give you this two million. At most, I’ll only give you two hundred thousand, and if you try to treat like that again, I won’t even give you that." Lin ngyao said expressionlessly, holding the bank card between her index and middle fingers.
"I didn’t raise you all these years to threaten . Hurry up and give the two million, I know you have the money." Li Lihua frowned as she spoke, not believing Lin ngyao’s words about not giving her the money. Lin ngyao had never refused her before, not in over twenty years, so she didn’t take ngyao’s threats seriously. Instead, she cursed herself inwardly for only now rembering that she had such a golden ticket.
Seeing Li Lihua’s insistent attitude, Lin ngyao directly handed over the card containing two hundred thousand to Li Lihua. "The password is your birthday." After leaving that statent behind, Lin ngyao walked past Li Lihua, pulling Xu Ke along, leaving the still gleeful Li Lihua standing there.
"Did you really give her two million?" Xu Ke struck up a conversation with Lin ngyao.
"No, two hundred thousand."
"Aren’t you afraid your mother might cause a scene at the company?"
"Once I resolve this loan issue, she won’t bother for quite a while, at least not until the impact of this matter has subsided." ngyao understood Li Lihua, and Li Lihua also understood ngyao.
Thinking about having to play tricks on her own mother, Lin ngyao inexplicably chuckled, though sparkling tears appeared in her eyes.
"Don’t cry, you still have ." Xu Ke placed his hand over one of Lin ngyao’s hands. The warmth from his body spread to ngyao, warming her sowhat cold fingertips.
Lin ngyao didn’t speak, only nodded, causing the tears to escape from her eyes as she nodded, falling directly onto her dark purple gown and blossoming into an inky purple flower.
Xu Ke parked the car in front of Huaxia Bank, and the two entered Huaxia Bank one after the other.
"Excuse , I’m looking for your Vice President Huang, could you please contact him for ?" Lin ngyao was unlike the Lin Family mbers; they didn’t know who was behind everything, stumbling about like blind flies, hitting walls everywhere. Lin ngyao knew who was targeting the Lin Family and went directly to confront the person behind it.
"Who are you?" A bank employee looked up at Xu Ke and Lin ngyao.
"I’m Lin ngyao from the Lin Group." Lin ngyao introduced herself.
"So you’re Lin ngyao. Our vice president instructed that if it’s you, you can go directly to him. He’s waiting for you on the sixth floor." Without raising his head, the employee confird her identity, his attitude was arrogantly dismissive, not giving Lin ngyao any regard.
Xu Ke morized the employee’s appearance and na from his badge before following Lin ngyao into the elevator and pressing the number six.
"What were you looking at just now?" Lin ngyao glanced lightly at Xu Ke and asked.
"That employee who just spoke to you."
"Why were you looking at her?" Lin ngyao suddenly looked up at Xu Ke, and realizing her reaction was too intense, she quickly lowered her head as if nothing had happened, attempting to appear indifferent, though a hint of jealousy flavored her voice.
"Of course, to rember her and help you with revenge later." Seeing Lin ngyao relax, Xu Ke’s lips slightly curled up, satisfied with her response.
"She was just doing her job; I didn’t mind." Hearing Xu Ke’s words gave Lin ngyao a slight feeling of contentnt, but she purposefully made her voice sound unaffected to mask it, unaware that the mirror in the elevator had long exposed her true expression.
The elevator stopped on the sixth floor, with Lin ngyao stepping out first, followed closely by Xu Ke.
When they t Vice President Huang, he was already standing by the window, looking out with his back to them.
"Vice President Huang." Lin ngyao spoke out.
Upon hearing her voice, Vice President Huang turned around, glaring at the pair who had entered his office with eyes full of imnse hatred.
"Are you the ones who beat up my nephew and his wife?" Vice President Huang’s bloodshot eyes glared fiercely, speaking with gritted teeth.
Having been anxious all the way up, Lin ngyao surprisingly felt a sense of calm upon seeing Vice President Huang’s deanor.
"We were rely repaying them in kind." Xu Ke, holding Lin ngyao’s hand, didn’t wait for permission to sit and directly sat on the sofa, wearing an expression of indifference toward Vice President Huang’s glare, as if daring him to act.
"Stand up. Did I tell you to sit?" Vice President Huang bit his words out one by one through clenched teeth.
Lin ngyao, being a girl with a thin skin, naturally wanted to stand up when told, but the hand on her shoulder kept her down. "No need for such an intense reaction, given your age. Let’s sit down and discuss whatever issues there are," Xu Ke said, raising an eyebrow and sitting unmoved.
Even though Vice President Huang was furious, he couldn’t do much against Xu Ke’s immovable stance. He couldn’t possibly try to forcibly drag Xu Ke off the sofa. Though Xu Ke didn’t look muscular, he was not soone who could be easily removed by soone of Vice President Huang’s age.
Vice President Huang shot a fierce glare at Xu Ke, then snorted coldly before sitting on another couch. His originally fierce and angry face cald down, though it still stretched taut as if ready to pounce at any ti.
"The thickness of both of your skins is sothing I’ve rarely seen in my life. Hmph! I know why you’re here today. If you want to spare the Lin Group, it’s possible but there are conditions." Vice President Huang peered at the two opposite him, speaking bluntly.
"What are the conditions?" Lin ngyao asked, unable to suppress the excitent in her heart upon hearing there was a chance, her body leaning forward involuntarily.
"My nephew and his wife were beaten up by you like that; if I don’t do sothing about it, I won’t feel right, not to ntion the injustice for them still lying bedridden." ntioning the two, Vice President Huang’s eyes filled with a trace of pain, and an added layer of resentnt was directed at Xu Ke and Lin ngyao.
"What do you want us to do?" Lin ngyao didn’t know their current condition, but judging by Xu Ke’s rciless attack, she figured things couldn’t be good for them. She understood that this couldn’t be easily resolved without knowing how much it would cost to make them relent and spare the Lin Family.
"Simple. I want the two of you to kneel before their window day and night, repenting and apologizing until they are fully recovered." Vice President Huang’s eyes narrowed, and his harsh gaze targeted Xu Ke and Lin ngyao.
"If both of you agree to this condition and sign this contract, I’ll help the Lin Family get through this hurdle. If you don’t, then you can wait for the Lin Group’s bankruptcy. I’m sure you haven’t forgotten the Lu Group’s bankruptcy case." Vice President Huang ended with an ominous warning, leaving a palpable tension in the air.
