Chapter 405: Chapter 404: Retaliation
Upon hearing Ouyang Feiting’s words, a trace of regret appeared on Ouyang Lieqing’s face. Had he known that Ouyang Feiting and Wang Yan were in love, and that Wang Yan had taken over Gangzhe Group, why would he have gone to so much trouble to marry his daughter off to Li Zhe?
Now, Li Zhe had become a penniless prisoner, while Wang Yan had become a new elite in Wanghai City, yet he foolishly insisted on giving Ouyang Feiting to Li Zhe.
Therefore, before Ouyang Feiting could finish speaking, Ouyang Lieqing quickly chimed in, “Yes, yes, I’m inviting someone to accompany my daughter on vacation, and that person must be CEO Wang Yan. Feiting is about to have a holiday, and you young people should go out and have fun after the holiday. I’ve arranged everything for you, waiting for you to go on vacation together.”
Hearing this, Ouyang Feiting’s face couldn’t help but show joy, but then she asked incredulously, “Dad, are you inviting brother Wang Yan to accompany me? Wasn’t it said earlier…”
Before Ouyang Feiting could finish, Ouyang Lieqing interrupted her, “Of course it’s CEO Wang Yan. Who else could be worthy of my daughter?”
Wang Yan sat in the chair, listening while Ouyang Lieqing and Ouyang Feiting exchanged words, understanding only half of it. Why was Ouyang Lieqing wanting him to accompany Ouyang Feiting on vacation, yet there was mention of matching and being worthy?
Wang Yan was about to speak when he suddenly felt Ouyang Feiting lightly pinch his back.
This pinch made Wang Yan immediately fall silent.
At this point, Ouyang Feiting revealed a cheeky smile and sighed, then walked up to Ouyang Lieqing and dragged him out of the office.
Ouyang Lieqing was perplexed, yet Ouyang Feiting forcefully took him out, followed closely by Ouyang Feiqiang.
Once the three left the office, Ouyang Lieqing immediately shook off Ouyang Feiting’s hand, complaining, “I was speaking with CEO Wang Yan, and you rudely pulled me out.”
Ouyang Feiting sighed and said to Ouyang Lieqing, “Dad, this was my intention. I am afraid brother Wang Yan would refuse you later, and you’d lose face.”
Ouyang Lieqing froze and asked, “Refuse me? Could he refuse my invitation to accompany you?”
Seeing Ouyang Feiting’s face instantly darken, Ouyang Lieqing was stunned, urgently asking, “Weren’t you two dating?”
Ouyang Feiting’s face became even darker, “Oh, Dad, you don’t know. Since you met brother Wang Yan last time and treated him indifferently, brother Wang Yan has grown distant from me. Moreover, Beiming Xue has continuously pursued brother Wang Yan, and Uncle Beiming Bufan has decided to give control of Beiming Group to brother Wang Yan, so now brother Wang Yan has chosen Beiming Xue.”
There was truth and falsehood in Ouyang Feiting’s words. The issue of Beiming Bufan handing over control of Beiming Group to Wang Yan was a complete fabrication.
Wang Yan wouldn’t even want to manage Peak Group, let alone any Beiming Group.
However, Ouyang Feiting understood Ouyang Lieqing very well, knowing that Beiming Group was Ouyang Group’s largest competitor and that Ouyang Lieqing would certainly believe her words.
Sure enough, after hearing Ouyang Feiting’s words, Ouyang Lieqing slapped his thigh and cursed, “It’s that Beiming Bufan again. Always competing with me, in business and now even trying to take away the son-in-law I picked.”
Ouyang Feiting said, “Unless you can also give management of Ouyang Group to brother Wang Yan, maybe he’ll still consider me? Otherwise, it’ll be really difficult.”
Ouyang Lieqing slapped his thigh, “I won’t let Beiming Bufan have his way. I’ll also give Ouyang Group’s management to Wang Yan.”
Ouyang Feiqiang, standing nearby, urgently called out, “No, Dad, the management of Ouyang Group was supposed to be handed to me!”
Hearing Ouyang Feiqiang’s words, Ouyang Lieqing hesitated, and suddenly, his eyes turned, as if realizing something, glancing at Ouyang Feiting, “Feiting, aren’t you bluffing me?”
Ouyang Feiting shrugged, “Dad, since you don’t believe me, I’ll have to prove it to you.”
Saying so, Ouyang Feiting opened the office door slightly and shouted inside to Wang Yan, “Brother Wang Yan, who is Beiming Xue to you?”
Wang Yan, puzzled as to why the trio ran outside to speak nonsense, suddenly heard Ouyang Feiting’s question and replied without thinking, “Girlfriend, what’s up?”
Ouyang Feiting tossed a casual “Nothing, just asking” and closed the office door, looking at Ouyang Lieqing.
Once Ouyang Lieqing heard it, he immediately believed Ouyang Feiting’s words and hastily rubbed his hands in anxiety, “That Beiming Bufan. Didn’t realize he already got ahead. If Beiming Group and Peak Group collaborate, how can Ouyang Group survive in Wanghai City?”
Ouyang Feiqiang nearly cried out, “Dad, you can’t give the group to one outsider to manage!”
Hearing this, Ouyang Lieqing hesitated again.
Seeing that the timing was right, Ouyang Feiting sighed again, “Dad, I think it’s better to forget about it. Let’s not waste time here. How about we go to prison now, and I still marry Li Zhe?”
With that, Ouyang Feiting turned around to leave.
At this moment, Ouyang Lieqing made a decision, “Alright, I’ve decided. The management of Ouyang Group will go to Peak Group. I won’t interfere with anything.”
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Feiting was elated internally. The Ouyang Group had deep-rooted foundations and extensive connections, which were lacking in Peak Group. If management were handed over to Peak Group, they would surely grow rapidly and potentially become the top financial consortium in Wanghai City.
However, on the surface, Ouyang Feiting still appeared reluctant, “Forget it, Dad. There’s no need for us to compete. Even if I don’t marry Li Zhe, I can marry an ordinary person.”
Ouyang Lieqing promptly waved his hand, “This matter is settled. From today, Ouyang Group’s management is fully handed over to Peak Group.”
…
The next day, a bombshell announcement rocked Wanghai City.
The first explosive news was that Gangzhe Group had gone bankrupt and was absorbed by Peak Group.
While Wanghai City hadn’t fully processed this news, a second explosive announcement came through.
Ouyang Group formed a strategic alliance with Peak Group, with management handed over to Peak Group.
Peak Group, almost overnight, catapulted from a second-rate group to a top-tier financial consortium in Wanghai City.
Meanwhile, on the vast sea beside Wanghai City, a gigantic cruise ship swiftly sailed towards the port, carrying Zhao Xinyao and Shi Sanquan, both with fierce expressions.
In between Zhao Xinyao and Shi Sanquan stood a man with a cold face and a full beard.
Glancing at the man with the cold demeanor, Zhao Xinyao’s face filled with confidence as she scanned the shores of Wanghai City and coldly remarked, “Wang Yan, your revenge is imminent.”
