425: Chapter 426: Colluding with Each Other in a Disgraceful Manner
Seven or eight big n jumped out of the van, each one holding a dagger or so other kind of lethal weapon.
Chen Jun imdiately locked the car door and said, “President Xiao, I’ll try to hold them off while you and the young lady find a way to escape.”
Xiao Haiqing’s expression was as still as water as he replied, “It’s clear they won’t let us go, there’s no need for pointless sacrifice.”
Chen Jun said, “But…
these people are obviously up to no good, I’m afraid they’ll harm you and the young lady.”
At that mont, Xiao Haiqing fully displayed the deanor of a company president, saying, “It’s fine, apart from wanting money, what else could this display be for?”
Crash!
As soon as the two in the car finished speaking, the window was smashed open with an iron bar.
A man in his thirties said, “President Xiao, get out of the car, stop struggling in vain, otherwise don’t bla us for being rude.”
As the three of them got out of the car, Chen Jun positioned himself in front of Xiao Haiqing and Xiao Yingying, only to have two muscular n imdiately grab his arms, then one struck Chen Jun’s neck with his palm, and Chen Jun fainted on the spot.
Before passing out, Chen Jun was shocked; the attackers were clearly not ordinary people.
He was skilled in combat, but the way those n grabbed his arms left him unable to resist, especially the palm strike to his neck, which was not sothing any regular person could do.
But now he could no longer warn Xiao Haiqing.
Xiao Haiqing and Xiao Yingying were taken hostage onto the van, and their mobile phones were confiscated.
Shortly thereafter, both were tied up and had hoods placed over their heads, all done with practiced ease.
About half an hour later, Xiao Haiqing and Xiao Yingying were brought into a cottage and tied to chairs, and their hoods were removed.
Xiao Haiqing and Xiao Yingying then saw Xiao Zhiming.
“Uncle, aren’t you surprised to see ?” Xiao Zhiming asked coldly, with a dark expression on his face.
Xiao Haiqing let out a cold laugh and said, “I truly didn’t expect that for the sake of profit, you would stoop to such actions.
If you had shown such capabilities before, I would have made even better use of you.”
“Before?
Wasn’t I devoted and dedicated enough before?
I did so much for the company, and now you kicked
out just like that.
Do you think I, Xiao Zhiming, am so easy to bully?
Let
tell you, there’s no way!” Xiao Zhiming said through clenched teeth, hysterical.
Xiao Haiqing shook his head slightly and asked, “Zhiming, what do you want now?”
Xiao Zhiming snorted, “What do I want?
I just want to take what rightfully belongs to .”
“And what is that?”
“The company, everything you own should be mine.
Now just because this girl is still alive, you want to give everything to her.
That’s absolutely unacceptable.
No one can take away what belongs to .”
Xiao Haiqing said, “You sure have a big appetite.”
Xiao Zhiming replied, “Yes!
My appetite is not small, but this is originally mine.
Old man, stop wasting words.
I’ve drafted the stock transfer agreent.
Sign it quickly and I’ll let you leave; otherwise, you’re headed for a dead end.”
“Zhiming, you’ve been with
for quite a few years now.
Do you really think a stock transfer agreent can transfer the company to you just like that?
There are a lot of procedures that need to be followed.”
“You don’t need to worry about that; I’ll handle the rest.
Just tell , will you sign or not?”
“If I sign now, will you really let us go?
You’re going to kill us once I’ve signed, destroy the evidence, so you can really get the company into your hands.
I’m not that foolish.”
Xiao Zhiming snorted coldly and said, “Then I’ll just kill you now, and the company will eventually co to my hands through inheritance, anyway.”
“You’re not that naive.
That would require too many complicated procedures, and by the ti you could truly inherit my shares, who knows what state the company would be in.”
“I won’t waste words with you.
The agreent is right here.
If you don’t sign it tonight, I’ll sink you all into the sea to feed the sharks tomorrow.”
Having said this, Xiao Zhiming had Xiao Haiqing and Xiao Yingying released and then he withdrew from the room.
“I say, Young Master Xiao, isn’t this thod a bit too troubleso?” A middle-aged man sat on a chair outside the room, puffing on a cigar, his brow furrowed, asking; it was none other than Jin Long, the head of Tiannan City’s underground forces.
Switching to a smile, Xiao Zhiming said, “Brother Long, a big company like this is not like your places where you just take over territory and it’s ready to use.
Everything has to go through procedures before you can get the company smoothly.
Otherwise, how could I access the company’s funds or pay you your reward, Brother Long?”
Jin Long took a drag of his cigar and said, “Xiao Zhiming, this is no small matter.
Xiao Haiqing is a well-known figure in the city.
If there’s even a slight loophole, and it leads back to us, we won’t be able to handle the consequences.
The risk involved in doing this with you is not ordinary.”
Xiao Zhiming said, “Risk and reward naturally coexist.
Once this is done, you will own ten percent of Xiao Corporation.
That ans your legitimate business will rise to the next level, and it’s a great opportunity for you to go legit.”
“But I feel like ten percent is a bit low,” Jin Long flicked off so ash, his tone casual.
Xiao Zhiming’s mouth twitched, “Brother Long, you know how much Xiao Corporation is worth—it’s over ten billion.
Ten percent of the shares is over a billion.
Isn’t that enough reward for one job?”
Jin Long shook his head, “A billion sounds like a lot, but this is very dangerous.
If a figure like Xiao Haiqing were to disappear, it would definitely shake up the city.
I’d be under trendous pressure.
If there’s even a hint of a leak, you won’t be able to get the company, and we will both end up getting caught.”
Cursing inwardly, Xiao Zhiming thought Jin Long’s greed knew no bounds, and he was going back on their agreent.
Although they were bound together in this matter, clashing was beneficial to neither, so the only option was to negotiate slowly and try to give a little less if possible.
Inside the room, Xiao Haiqing looked at Xiao Yingying and asked, “Yingying, are you alright?”
“I’m fine, Dad.
Don’t worry, I already ssaged Brother Dongzi for help before we got out.
He will co to find us soon,” she assured him.
Xiao Haiqing’s mouth twitched slightly.
Even if Song Xiaodong was capable, he was not Superman.
How could he co to rescue them?
Now he had to think of a way to stall Xiao Zhiming, buying ti for him and Xiao Yingying to find a chance to survive.
