Chapter 712: Chapter 721: Return (2)
Actually, Yu Jingxi’s Huanyu Group, whether in terms of financial strength or connections, was far more substantial than his newly established West Coast Sunshine Company. However, Situ Xuan just happened to strike at a tily opportunity, firstly contending with him over water treatnt technology, in which Yu Jingxi’s additional fifty million investnt secured success smoothly. Also, since the ti between acquiring the technology and starting production should not be too long, or else the expensive technology might be surpassed by others, potentially turning it into nothing but a stack of worthless papers.
Furthermore, while Yu Jingxi was dealing with the water company, Situ Xuan ddled once more, picking just the right mont, forcing Yu Jingxi into a bout with him over the matter.
But Yu Jingxi, after all, had more experience, had been through more, and also, possessed powerful financial resources. While Situ Xuan did cause Yu Jingxi so trouble during their tussle, as Shen Lanxiao had said, it was just a matter of spending a bit more money, nothing they couldn’t handle.
However, in this round of probing, not only had the spies Situ Xuan planted within Huanyu Group been entirely rooted out by Yu Jingxi, but even his connections in the import-export trade had been called into question due to the previous “blunder” of falsely reporting Huanyu Group for tax evasion. If he wanted to play this ga further, he would have to invest even more money and tap into more of his connections—simply put, it was not worth the loss.
On the surface, it might seem like he was evenly matched with Yu Jingxi, yet Yu Jingxi still had room to maneuver. But what about him? Once his actions here were discovered by the Situ Family, based on the personalities of his cousins, they would undoubtedly kick him while he was down and even get his uncles to oppose him.
Especially since, in just a few days, it would be ti for the bid submission.
Situ Xuan also knew that this ti, Huanyu Group was determined. If he decided to go head-to-head with them, he would gain no advantage. Yet he couldn’t bring himself to give up so easily, being left hanging in such uncertainty, not to ntion—the arrival of his so-called “fiancée,” Moon Cheng—actually Cheng Tingting, was nearly driving him out of his mind.
His way of dealing with Cheng Tingting was straightforward and rough— he handed her off directly to Ya Jiayi.
Wasn’t it you, Ya Jiayi, who told them I was in Huaxia Country? Wasn’t it you who inford them I wasn’t in Yancheng headquarters but had gone to Shangcheng instead?
Well then, my apologies, but you can entertain her yourself! For 24 hours a day, Ya Jiayi acted like a complete butler and nanny, constantly revolving around Cheng Tingting. His demands were clear: one, don’t interfere with my work. Two, if I find out she’s troubling Jian Anning, you’re fired!
However, precisely because his capable right-hand woman, Ya Jiayi, was tied up playing nanny to Cheng Tingting and couldn’t assist him, he had to scramble for additional help, busy as a spinning top.
And in these stressful days, unbeknownst to him, the face that kept appearing in his mind was that of Jian Anning!
He didn’t understand what was happening to him.
From his childhood, due to his parents’ loveless marriage and the constant fighting among his cousins. Coupled with the endless overt and covert battles among the other branches of the family, he seed to have completely accustod himself to living amid strife.
