"Zhang Yang!"
Han Wenkang looked at him with surprise and unease, asking, "What do you mean by this?"
Li Jiangshan was also silently observing Zhang Yang.
Li Jiangshan was very curious about Zhang Yang.
He had been paying attention to the struggle between Han Xiyao and Han Wenkang these past few days.
It was clear that Han Xiyao was able to hold her ground and not suffer any losses, largely due to Zhang Yang.
Even.
Li Jiangshan could guess that Zhang Yang was related to the data errors in the pharmaceutical factory, Han Xiyao's launch of new drugs, and the Guiyuan Dan purchased by the Dragon Group.
This young man was not simple.
Zhang Yang walked directly into the conference room, closing the door behind him.
Holding the equity transfer agreement in his hand, he said coldly.
"Han Wenkang, you have to pay the price for losing. You won't get away clean today."
"Do you know why the other shareholders are not present today?"
"Because all their shares have been acquired by me!"
This!
What!?
Zhang Yang's revelation shocked everyone!
Han Xiyao's eyes were filled with surprise and joy.
She hadn't expected Zhang Yang to actually accomplish this.
Han Wenkang was greatly alarmed, and more so, disbelieving.
Those old foxes were all cunning and sly; how could they have sold their shares at this time!
However, Han Shaowei, who was unusually clear-headed, retorted.
"Zhang Yang, do you think we're all fools? Do you know how much money it takes to acquire those shares?"
"You're just an employee of the Han family, how could you possibly have that much money!"
Reminded by Han Shaowei, the others also looked on with suspicion.
The Han Group, while not a massive conglomerate, had a market value of five to six billion.
The shareholders' stakes accounted for about twenty percent, which was still over a billion.
Zhang Yang did not look like someone who could afford that much money.
The most composed was probably Han Xiyao.
She knew very well that Zhang Yang could afford the money.
Because...
The Guiyuan Dan was sold by Zhang Yang.
"If you think the transfer agreement in my hand is fake, feel free to call and ask for clarification."
Zhang Yang said dismissively, throwing the transfer agreement onto the table.
Han Wenkang gave Han Shaowei a look.
He himself picked up Zhang Yang's equity transfer agreement to examine it.
Meanwhile, Han Shaowei made calls to inquire with the absent shareholders.
Soon.
The expressions on both father and son turned extremely grim.
Han Wenkang, who was examining the equity transfer agreement, naturally recognized the signatures of the other shareholders.
Han Shaowei also received confirmation from the other party over the phone.
The absent shareholders had indeed sold their shares to Zhang Yang.
"Dad, this... this seems to be true," Han Shaowei said nervously.
Han Wenkang's face was also ashen, and he was very unwilling!
At this moment.
Han Xiyao stepped forward, a cold smile on her face.
"Han Wenkang, starting tomorrow, all matters of the Han Group will have nothing to do with you."
Pausing, Han Xiyao looked at Li Jiangshan and said.
"Uncle Li, I now have more supporting shares than you. Do you have any other opinions?"
"If you do, then don't say anything."
Li Jiangshan gave a wry smile.
No one had expected that Zhang Yang would acquire all the shares of the Han family's collateral branches.
Now.
Han Xiyao, combined with Zhang Yang's shares, indeed had a slight majority.
"Xiyao, listen to Uncle Li's advice, still..." Li Jiangshan wanted to negotiate further.
However, Han Xiyao waved her hand dismissively, showing no mercy.
"No need to persuade me, my mind is made up!"
Li Jiangshan cleared his throat.
After thinking for a moment, he finally said no more.
Han Wenkang knew he had lost completely, with no chance of recovery.
He could only turn and leave with great reluctance.
However, the next moment.
Zhang Yang called out to stop them.
Han Xiyao's matter was resolved, and his own business needed to be dealt with.
"Stop, did I say you could leave?" Zhang Yang's voice was clear and cold.
"Zhang Yang, we've all admitted defeat, what else do you want?" Han Shaowei said unpleasantly.
Although they had lost and had to withdraw from the management of the Han Group, they still held substantial shares in the Han family!
Their father and son status remained as the second largest shareholders of the Han family!
Zhang Yang narrowed his eyes and sneered.
"If I remember correctly, you still owe me a favor, don't you?"
This~
Han Shaowei then remembered.
When they made the bet, Qin Shengnan had asked him to bring this up.
"What do you want me to do?"
"I don't want anything. I just want to know what you would have gotten from me if I had lost," Zhang Yang asked.
This...
Han Shaowei fell silent.
This additional condition was proposed by Qin Shengnan.
But what exactly the other party wanted to obtain from Zhang Yang, Han Shaowei did not know.
After a moment of thought.
Han Shaowei chose not to expose Qin Shengnan.
"At that time, I just didn't like you, so I added that condition on the spot. I hadn't thought of anything specific," Han Shaowei replied.
Zhang Yang raised an eyebrow slightly, clearly dissatisfied with the answer.
"Are you sure that's all?"
"Of course, otherwise what else could it be?"
"..."
Zhang Yang fell silent.
He sensed that Han Shaowei was hiding something, but if the other party remained stubborn,
He didn't seem to have a better way to force it out.
"Fine, then fulfill the bet. Kneel before me now," Zhang Yang suddenly said.
What?
Han Shaowei looked furious.
Han Wenkang's face also immediately darkened.
To make his son kneel before Zhang Yang in front of him, where would that leave his dignity!
"Zhang Yang, don't push it too far!" Han Wenkang said grimly.
"Heh? Too far?" Zhang Yang sneered.
"If you don't want your son to kneel, that's fine, but you have to tell me why you hired assassins to kill me!"
In fact.
Zhang Yang had no intention of making Han Shaowei kneel before him.
He didn't have such vulgar taste.
The reason for doing so.
Was to make Han Wenkang voluntarily reveal the truth about hiring assassins.
"This... When did I hire assassins to kill you?" Han Wenkang asked with a look of confusion.
Zhang Yang narrowed his eyes, already getting angry.
"To remind you, Chen Xiong told me himself about you hiring assassins to kill me."
"Chen Xiong?" Han Wenkang muttered to himself.
He suddenly remembered that two days ago, he had asked Chen Xiong to help him protect the employees who had been captured by Li Dabai.
"So you're talking about that. I just mentioned it casually at the time."
"But something seems to have happened to Chen Xiong these past two days. He shouldn't have acted against you, should he?"
Han Wenkang admitted this point willingly.
However.
Zhang Yang was extremely dissatisfied. He stepped forward, grabbed Han Wenkang by the collar, and slapped him!
Slap!
The sound of the slap was crisp and loud.
"Han Wenkang, do you take me for a fool? I'm not talking about what happened these past two days."
"I'm talking about the car accident before I came to the Han family, and what were you rummaging through my house for!"
Zhang Yang was furious. He didn't want to bicker with Han Wenkang!
"Zhang Yang, are you crazy! Let go of my dad quickly, or I..." Han Shaowei was furious!
However, before he could finish speaking.
Zhang Yang, in his rage, kicked directly at his knee.
"Did I say you could speak? Kneel!"
This!
Zhang Yang's sudden outburst stunned everyone present.
Seeing his son injured and himself violently subdued by Zhang Yang.
Han Wenkang's anger surged instantly!
"Zhang Yang, what car accident are you talking about, what about my house being searched, it has nothing to do with me!"
"I didn't do any of this!" Han Wenkang roared!
Zhang Yang's expression turned cold.
"Chen Xiong played the recording for me, and you still won't admit it! Or do you think I dare not do anything to you!"
Han Wenkang was also angry. He never took responsibility for what he didn't do.
"I admit that when I tampered with the pharmaceutical factory data three days ago, Wu De did take me to see Chen Xiong!"
"But I had no idea about the car accident you were in before coming to the Han family!"
"I don't even know who you are, why would I kill you!"
This!
Zhang Yang suddenly grasped the key point. "Wu De took you to Chen Xiong? You only went three days ago?"
"Otherwise! I didn't even know who Chen Xiong was before!" Han Wenkang said angrily.
Hearing this, Zhang Yang fell silent.
He thought of another possibility.
Han Wenkang might not be the mastermind behind the attempt on his life.
This killer was someone else.
Then...
Suddenly!
Zhang Yang thought of something else and looked at Han Shaowei.
"Han Shaowei, tell me the truth, was the bet you made with me alone orchestrated by someone from the Qin family?"
With his knee broken, Han Shaowei gasped in pain.
If it had been at the beginning, he might have told Zhang Yang the truth.
But now.
Zhang Yang had trampled on the dignity of him and his father in front of so many people.
Han Shaowei would absolutely not tell Zhang Yang!
"It has nothing to do with the Qin family, it was just a whim of mine."
"Are you sure?"
Zhang Yang released Han Wenkang and approached Han Shaowei, pressing him.
"Of course it's true, I just didn't like you!" Han Shaowei gritted his teeth.
Han Shaowei's expression, besides the contortion of pain, also showed anger.
Zhang Yang stared at him, but did not detect anything amiss.
Now.
It was his turn to fall silent.
"Then what about the Qin family? Why did they help you?" Zhang Yang pressed.
"Heh, I won them over myself. It just so happened that you and Wu De had a grievance, so it benefited me."
Han Shaowei said with an unwilling expression, "It's just a shame that you won in the end."
Hearing this, Zhang Yang showed a look of suspicion.
Is that all?
Vaguely, Zhang Yang felt something was wrong.
But he couldn't pinpoint what was wrong.
At this moment.
Li Jiangshan, who had been observing, spoke.
"Zhang Yang, your name matches your style, but your methods just now were a bit excessive."
Zhang Yang glanced at him.
Thinking that he was Li Dabai's father, he didn't bother to argue with him.
Li Jiangshan paused. "Xiyao, as you wished, the Han Group is yours from now on."
"If you have nothing else, I'll take Han Wenkang and the others away."
After Li Jiangshan finished speaking, without waiting for Han Xiyao or Zhang Yang's agreement.
He helped Han Wenkang support Han Shaowei and left the conference room.
...
Li Dabai and Gao Xiaohei immediately went to Zhang Yang's side.
"Zhang Yang, we've made up for our mistakes this time. It's acceptable, right?"
"Brother Zhang, it was our fault last time. Please don't be angry anymore."
Zhang Yang shook his head slightly.
"I'm not blaming you at all. If you don't believe me, ask Xiyao. She doesn't even know you two were responsible."
Huh?
Li Dabai and Gao Xiaohei exchanged glances and said silently.
Zhang Yang is a person worth befriending; he won't push the blame onto them when there's trouble.
"Dabai, you two go out first," Han Xiyao sensed Zhang Yang's unusual expression and asked them to leave.
"Okay."
Li Dabai and the other nodded, taking the bound members of the network department with them.
"Zhang Yang, are you alright?"
After the two left, Han Xiyao walked towards Zhang Yang with concern.
"I'm fine, just something I can't quite figure out," Zhang Yang shook his head.
Han Xiyao, who had witnessed everything, knew what Zhang Yang was thinking about.
From her perspective as an observer, she offered her opinion.
"Zhang Yang, perhaps Han Wenkang and his son really have nothing to do with your car accident."
"Do you remember your first interview at the Han family? Han Wenkang didn't recognize you at all."
This...
Reminded by Han Xiyao, Zhang Yang recalled carefully.
It seemed.
It was indeed like that.
At that time, Han Wenkang's impression of him was still that of an employee fired by Fenghua Group.
If that's the case, there's only one possibility.
Chen Xiong is lying!
Wu De is cooperating with him in lying!
It seemed he had been tricked by Chen Xiong!
"Xiyao, Han Wenkang has been kicked out of the company. I'll be going now."
After saying hello, Zhang Yang turned and left.
"Then... then be careful," Han Xiyao reminded him.
Although she wanted to help, Han Wenkang was expelled from the company today.
She had to seize the time to consolidate the entire group.
Promote those who should be promoted, demote those who should be demoted, and replace everyone with her own people!
...
Meanwhile.
The defeated Han Wenkang and his son.
After bidding farewell to Li Jiangshan, they returned home.
The father and son sat in the living room, drinking in silence!
At the same time.
Han Wenkang's home welcomed two guests.
Qin Shengnan, with her neat short hair, entered with Wu De.
Upon arrival.
Qin Shengnan saw their dispirited expressions and frowned.
"Why the gloomy faces? Did you lose the bet?"
Han Wenkang glanced up at her and said weakly.
"We failed. Zhang Yang outmaneuvered us, and they took..."
About ten minutes later.
After listening to Han Wenkang's account, Qin Shengnan's expression was unpredictable.
Guiyuan Dan!
Dragon Group!
It seemed this Zhang Yang was more than what she had investigated!
With Qin Shengnan's insight.
She naturally knew what the Guiyuan Dan sold to the Dragon Group was!
"So, you not only failed but were also kicked out of the Han Group?" Qin Shengnan asked sternly.
Han Wenkang gave a bitter smile and nodded.
"Indeed. Moreover, Zhang Yang asked me about his car accident today, and he even suspected you regarding the conditions you asked us to propose."
"But don't worry, I didn't reveal anything about you."
Han Wenkang knew.
He couldn't blame Qin Shengnan for his loss this time.
Because.
Qin Shengnan had done her best to help him; they had underestimated Zhang Yang.
"Is that so? Then I should really thank you," Qin Shengnan said faintly.
A slight change occurred in her eyes.
Han Wenkang did not notice this.
"No need for thanks. Although I lost this time, I will find a way to get back in."
"When the time comes, if there's an opportunity, I will definitely help you get what you want from Zhang Yang."
Qin Shengnan remained unmoved by Han Wenkang's promise, shaking her head and saying meaningfully.
"Han Wenkang, you are a good partner. It's a pity, I can't wait for you that long."
Instantly.
As Qin Shengnan's words fell, the temperature in the entire room dropped to freezing point.
Han Wenkang sensed the change in Qin Shengnan's attitude and the killing intent, and suddenly felt a pang of panic.
"This... Ms. Qin, what do you mean by this?"
"Since you're willing to keep my secret, then for safety's sake, let's keep it that way forever!"
With that said.
Qin Shengnan, who was sitting, was holding a dagger in her hand.
In an instant, cold light flashed.
Two bloodstains appeared on the throats of Han Wenkang and his son!
"You... Qin Shengnan, you..." Han Wenkang couldn't even utter a complete sentence.
He couldn't believe that Qin Shengnan would kill him.
Wu De, beside him.
Was even more frightened by the sudden turn of events, his legs went weak, and he desperately retreated.
"Wu De, where are you going?"
Qin Shengnan's cold voice came, instantly breaking Wu De's mental defenses, causing him to fall to the ground.
"Qin... Ms. Qin, I didn't see anything just now, I don't know anything, I..."
Swish!
However, before Wu De could finish speaking.
A bloodstain also appeared on his throat, and he fell to the ground, eyes wide open in disbelief.
"I don't like cheap promises. I only believe in the guarantees of the dead," Qin Shengnan said coldly.
Having killed three people, Qin Shengnan remained unfazed.
She erased all traces of her presence and then silently left Han Wenkang's home.
...
The tragic deaths of Han Wenkang and his son, as well as Wu De, were unknown to anyone.
On Zhang Yang's side.
After leaving the Han Group, he went straight to the Shanhe Club to find Chen Xiong and get a clear explanation.
But...
When he arrived, he couldn't find Chen Xiong anywhere.
Furthermore, apart from the staff maintaining the normal operation of the club, all the members of the Shanhe Gang had also disappeared.
However.
The staff at the club recognized Zhang Yang, this formidable figure.
After some interrogation, they revealed Chen Xiong's whereabouts.
He went to Han Wenkang's house?
What was going on?
Zhang Yang was very suspicious.
However, since Chen Xiong was at Han Wenkang's house.
Then he might as well go there. With both parties confronting each other, the truth of the matter would become clear.
