Chapter 221 I Won't Let You Down

Ou Minghan slammed the table in anger, "Su Ming is going too far!"

The executive's eyelids twitched. That familiar feeling…

Help, he wasn't Feng Jie and couldn't calm Ou Minghan down!

"Uh… also…" the executive said, bracing himself. "HR says several management employees have submitted their resignations. Should they be approved?"

He then quickly listed the names of those resigning.

Ou Minghan was stunned, his face instantly turned extremely unpleasant!

He had just returned, and these people wanted to resign? This was clearly slapping him in the face!

"Tell them to get lost!" Ou Minghan gritted his teeth in anger. "Do they really think the company can't function without them? Even if they stay, I'd suspect they've been bought off by Su Ming and are deliberately acting as spies! I won't keep disloyal people around! I'll see where they go after leaving Qianbai!"

The executive hesitated to speak. Those were his colleagues. Ou Minghan didn't know, but he was well aware that his colleagues had already found new jobs before resigning.

As for those who hadn't resigned, it was mainly because they hadn't found new jobs yet. Moreover, Taoxun was their ideal choice, but Taoxun's hiring process was notoriously strict. For them, if they couldn't join Taoxun, switching to other companies wouldn't be as meaningful.

Forget it, he wouldn't say anything that might provoke Ou Minghan. The executive sensibly agreed and quickly turned to leave.

Only Ou Minghan remained in the office, his face gloomy as he called Su Ming.

The call was answered quickly. Ou Minghan, full of frustration, asked, "Chairman Su, I heard you're planning to short Qianbai's stock?!"

Su Ming's heart skipped a beat. He immediately started to prevaricate, "Oh, Mr. Ou, how could that be? Nothing of the sort, I have no idea…"

Ou Minghan's anger intensified. Su Ming was feigning ignorance! He sneered, "Chairman Su, it's best if there isn't. I can tell you, I have plenty of money! If you want to short Qianbai's stock, be prepared to lose every penny!"

After speaking, Ou Minghan hung up the phone directly.

However, after making threats to Su Ming, his face was now full of worry.

His savings were almost depleted.

Su Ming had been relentless these days, and he had a constant feeling of being led by the nose. Buying back stocks was like being addicted to pay-to-win in a game; you didn't feel anything while paying, but you regretted it the moment you finished.

Now, he no longer had enough money to throw into the stock market to stabilize Qianbai's stock price. Of course, he wasn't without a backup plan.

Ou Minghan's expression turned grim. Ou Tiantian, no matter how much she acted up, should have had enough!

With that thought, Ou Minghan, who should have been checking Qianbai's operating status, left Qianbai and rushed to the hospital.

Upon arriving at the hospital, he coaxed Ou Tiantian for quite a while, finally managing to make her happy.

"Tiantian, I think you should move back home," Ou Minghan said with feigned concern. "It's not easy for me to take care of you when you're in the hospital."

"Brother, I don't want to leave the hospital!" Ou Tiantian suddenly grabbed his hand, her face filled with terror. "Now, whenever I close my eyes, I dream of people pointing guns at me in the royal hospital. I wake up terrified every time, and there were several occasions where I could barely breathe!

Fortunately, this is a hospital, and the doctors were able to rescue me in time. Brother, what if this happened at home, and I couldn't get to the hospital in time for timely treatment?"

Ou Minghan frowned displeasantly. Ou Tiantian dared to disobey his arrangements, which annoyed him greatly.

However, his reason for asking Ou Tiantian to go home was simply because he knew she was attached to him and he wanted to please her. Now that he had taken over Qianbai and was preparing for a major undertaking, he had no time or energy to placate Ou Tiantian.

"Alright, alright, you can continue staying in the hospital then," Ou Minghan conceded. He changed the subject and continued, "Tiantian, I've recently taken over Qianbai again and am planning a new project that's guaranteed to be profitable. You should invest too. I'm your brother, I wouldn't cheat you. In the future, Qianbai will be ours, and you'll be an investor in Qianbai…"

"Okay," Ou Tiantian said with a pout. "Brother, what's between us? What investor, I don't care!"

Ou Minghan was overjoyed. He knew Ou Tiantian would never refuse his request!

Ou Minghan suppressed his eagerness. "How much are you planning to invest?"

"Brother, didn't you ask me to start a credit company before, and you said there was a share for me?" Ou Tiantian thought for a moment and then said, "I don't want my share anymore. Give all that money to you, use it however you want!"

Ou Minghan froze instantly. He had just said it casually, how could Ou Tiantian take it seriously?!

Seeing Ou Minghan speechless, Ou Tiantian asked with confusion, "Brother, why aren't you talking? Did the credit company perform poorly and lose money?"

Ou Minghan quickly forced a smile. "How could it? You know my abilities, don't you? The credit company has been making money, and a lot of money!"

"That's good," Ou Tiantian said with relief. "All the money earned, give it to you too. That much money should be enough, right, brother?"

Ou Minghan was choked up. He couldn't backtrack now and say the credit company wasn't making money, otherwise, Ou Tiantian might not believe his ability to make money and refuse to invest.

After sitting for a while longer, seeing that he couldn't persuade Ou Tiantian, Ou Minghan left in frustration.

However, Ou Tiantian's words reminded him that he hadn't inquired about the credit company for some time.

Ou Minghan then quickly called Wu Yongzhi to ask about the credit company's situation. However, Wu Yongzhi said with great difficulty that the money had been lent out almost entirely, and even the part that was recovered had been re-lent. He had very little money on hand. If Ou Minghan wanted money, he would have to wait until the repayments were collected.

Ou Minghan immediately urged him to collect the money as soon as possible, as he had an urgent need. Unfortunately, Ou Minghan didn't have to wait long to realize that he wouldn't need it anymore.

Because Ye Zhi had already publicly disclosed Taoxun's financial report to the shareholders.

Although it was only an internal disclosure, news still leaked out. The news that Taoxun had captured 80% of the online shopping market caused Qianbai's stock price to plummet like an avalanche.

After all, if Taoxun occupied so much, how much market share would be left for Qianbai? The prospects of online shopping were good, but that didn't mean Qianbai's prospects were equally good.

Ou Minghan was naturally furious upon hearing this and completely disbelieving. This must be fake news deliberately spread by Ye Zhi to destabilize Qianbai's stock price!

He had to announce Qianbai's financial report as soon as possible to counterattack!
