Xie Zhen knew Zhang Yu was looking for him for sothing important. After listening to her narrative, he truly didn’t know what to say.
Zhang Yu waited for a long ti, not hearing Xie Zhen’s voice, her anxiety mounting. Really, isn’t it good or bad news? At least give a reply.
But no matter how unhappy, she can only wait. This person seems very likely to give her an answer, so she must wait.
Xie Zhen also knew Zhang Yu was anxious on the other end of the phone: Did you cooperate with this investnt bank before?
Zhang Yu replied: Yes.
Xie Zhen: No wonder. I just heard so news at a gathering with old friends. Han Bin recently has a mistress and is quite fascinated by her. She’s also in the financial circle and is considered a career-oriented woman.
Upon hearing Han Bin’s na, Zhang Yu’s expression beca serious. Xie Zhen isn’t one for idle talk; he must have sothing important to say, so she listened quietly.
Xie Zhen: She said she also wants to work hard to prove her ability and not let people say she’s dependent on a man. You know Han Bin and his father have once again ascended to power, becoming the decision-makers in the Han family. Although the family’s reputation has fallen a bit after this internal struggle, at least their positions are quite stable now.
Xie Zhen: If there were people previously eager to pull Han Bin and his father from power, they’re all behaving now. Even if they’re not willing, they have no choice. At least being obedient allows them to survive under the Han family’s umbrella, living a so-so life.
Xie Zhen: If they don’t behave, the fate of Han Xue and her family is what awaits them, or maybe even worse, because Mr. Han vouched for them.
Xie Zhen: Mr. Han also said he is completely uninvolved now.
Zhang Yu suddenly realized that Mr. Han’s health is waning, and in the future, when his descendants cause trouble, he might not have the chance to plead for them.
Xie Zhen: With Han Bin holding substantial power, he’s certainly going to restructure the Han family’s assets. For instance, the investnt bank you’re currently working with used to be controlled by Han Xue’s father and a distant relative of the Han family.
Xie Zhen knew that once Zhang Yu heard this news, she would definitely be furious, so he imdiately moved his phone further away.
What? Zhang Yu never expected that the investnt bank she previously cooperated with actually had shares owned by Han Xue’s father. If he had shares, the money earned would go to Han Xue.
Fuming, Zhang Yu cursed: So now Han Xue’s father gave his shares to the main branch?
Xie Zhen replied: What else could he do? He didn’t want to give them up; it was his cash cow. But thanks to your connections, you managed to earn a little. Who would willingly deal with such lucrative assets?
Xie Zhen: But there was no choice. Had he refused, Han Bin wouldn’t have spared their family.
Zhang Yu: I just want to know when this happened.
Xie Zhen thought for a mont: I’m not sure of the specifics, but probably by the end of the year. Oh, by the way, if you hadn’t asked , you might never have found out. Neither shareholders nor legal representatives have any direct ties to the Han family.
Zhang Yu: Is it that mistress?
Xie Zhen: You’re overthinking. The shares belong to the mistress. Once they break up, it’s not just wasted effort, it’s a re facade.
What? Zhang Yu previously thought Xie Zhen’s story was a real romance tale: Isn’t he fascinated? Isn’t he infatuated?
Zhang Yu: If he’s so infatuated, is there a problem giving a small investnt bank?
Zhang Yu said self-righteously: As a rich boss, isn’t giving planes and villas standard practice?
Zhang Yu smirked: Really, calling him the heir of the Han family, turns out he’s so stingy.
Xie Zhen heard Zhang Yu’s words and laughed heartily. The old friends were surprised by his prolonged absence and ca to see what was happening, only to find him laughing heartily.
The old friend was startled by Xie Zhen’s laughter; what’s going on? Don’t be fooled by his perpetual smile, which is rely superficial, and never truly felt.
But now, Xie Zhen was laughing cheerfully, sothing the old friend hadn’t seen in a long ti, having forgotten the last ti he saw such a smile.
Xie Zhen still wanted to laugh but turned and saw the astonished old friend, waving him away, which he understood imdiately, realizing he was being a nuisance.
The old friend found soone’s actions amusing and agitating; he hadn’t done anything, just ca to see what was going on, but was imdiately turned away.
Humph, why should he leave? If he walks away, it becos clear that what’s happening is shady.
Xie Zhen saw the old friend hadn’t moved, staring angrily at him, but despite this, he didn’t leave, making Xie quite helpless: Have you been reading too many CEO novels? No one spends money like that.
Xie Zhen: Or else, no matter how wealthy, it won’t bear the strain.
Zhang Yu was truly helpless: Okay, I understand, so I get it, this ti it looks like they’re setting a trap for .
Zhang Yu: I really don’t understand why they’re targeting . I’m just a small fry; I didn’t offend Han Bin or anyone, so why are they focusing on ?
If she was allied with Han Xue, and Han Bin didn’t like her, always trying to get her, she’d understand. But paradoxically, she really didn’t do anything.
Xie Zhen: It’s simple; you embarrassed Han Xue.
What? Zhang Yu wondered if she had heard incorrectly; how could she hear such a thing: I embarrassed Han Xue? Didn’t they have a falling out with Han Xue?
Zhang Yu: Didn’t they kick Han Bin off his pedestal, making father and son laughable to everyone? They weren’t polite to Han Xue afterward.
Whether it was Han Xue’s rise to power or Han Bin’s return, neither was polite, now united against her. Zhang Yu really didn’t know what to say; the notions of a wealthy family aren’t sothing a small fry like her can analyze.
Xie Zhen laughed: Because they’re family, they are united; no matter the internal tumult, externally they’re a single entity, maintaining the family’s reputation.
Alright, after listening to Xie Zhen’s analysis, Zhang Yu understood: This is what’s called family.
Zhang Yu knew Xie Zhen was a busy man. Being able to pass on this information was enough: I signed a cooperation agreent before. If I propose to terminate the contract now, will the Han family intervene?
Since knowing the company’s ties to the Han family, Zhang Yu doesn’t want to continue cooperating.
Maybe the company duped her this ti, the submitted information had issues, but Zhang Yu just doesn’t want to continue working with them. This ti the issues were many, fortunately not causing further traps, but what about the next ti?
The best option is to stop cooperating now. Whoever they want to trap is their business; she definitely won’t fall into the trap again.
Xie Zhen knew Zhang Yu worried about Han family interference, preventing the contract’s smooth cancellation: Don’t worry, Han Bin is trying various ways to separate the investnt bank from the family, likely with his reasons, so barring major surprises, the Han family won’t intervene.
Hearing this answer, Zhang Yu breathed a sigh of relief: Okay, then I’m at ease.
