31: Chapter 31: Annulnt of Engagent 31: Chapter 31: Annulnt of Engagent The next morning, as soon as Su Wanqiao arrived at the company, her secretary Ding Wei rushed to report.
“President Su!
There’s trouble!
This morning, all the dicinal herb suppliers related to our Su Group suddenly stopped their shipnts!”
Shua~ Hearing the secretary’s report, Su Wanqiao’s beautiful eyes narrowed.
She had anticipated the Ye Family’s retaliation, but she had not expected it to be so swift.
“Activate the ergency plan, prepare to contact suppliers from other provinces.
Increase the budget for dicinal materials and buy them from other provinces at high prices,” Su Wanqiao ordered with deep and earnest eyes.
However, Secretary Ding Wei responded with complicated news, “I have already contacted several suppliers from other provinces…
but once they learned about our issue with the Ye Family, they all refused to supply us…
The Ye Family has made it clear that anyone who dares to supply us will have all their agency rights in Shanghai and Hai cut off…”
At that mont, Su Wanqiao’s expression beca grave.
The Ye Family was one of the super pharmaceutical enterprises in Hai City.
The Ye Family had absolute dominance in the dical industry in the south of the Yangtze River.
It was unexpected that the Ye Family would go so far as to threaten suppliers in order to deal with the Su Family.
“President Su!
There’s more bad news!” Just then, outside the office, the financial director of the group rushed in to report!
“Just minutes after the stock market opened, a huge amount of capital suddenly targeted our Su Group’s stocks!
Our company’s stocks have been maliciously short-sold!
The market value of our group’s stocks has plumted, and we have already lost more than 1 billion!”
At that mont, Su Wanqiao felt sowhat embarrassed.
Who could have expected Ye Haiyuan’s counterattack to be so fierce and rciless, attacking both online and offline, catching the Su Group off guard?
All supplies were cut off, and the pharmaceuticals could not be manufactured and shipped as contracted, leaving the Su Group facing massive breach of contract risks.
With the stock market targeted for malicious short-selling, the Su Group was suddenly besieged on all fronts overnight.
This was a major blow for the Su Group.
All day long, Su Wanqiao sat in her office, thinking of solutions.
But even after contacting many suppliers, none dared to cooperate with the Su Family.
Her father, Su Beicheng, also personally reached out, contacting so old friends in the south of the Yangtze, hoping that they could lend a hand.
But those old friends all avoided him, pretending to be out of reach.
Clearly, these people had all been threatened by the Ye Family and didn’t dare get involved with the Su Family.
Even though Ye Haiyuan was behind bars, it didn’t an he couldn’t co out.
His prestige was imnse, with just one command, who in the business community of Shanghai and Hai would dare not give him face?
By the ti everyone left work in the evening, the Su Group’s stock losses had already exceeded 1.5 billion.
In one day, 1.5 billion in market value had evaporated.
This was another major blow for the Su Group.
In the evening, Su Wanqiao dragged her weary body out of the building.
Her sister, Su Zhiyan, followed behind her, also with a gloomy expression.
She too knew that the company had lost a lot of money that day and no longer dared to play gas, afraid of being scolded by her older sister.
At the entrance of the company, a red-flag sedan was already waiting outside, Lin Shuang stood by the car in her security uniform, waiting.
Just as Su Wanqiao was about to get into the car, her cellphone suddenly rang; she checked the caller ID: Bai Jingze.
Su Wanqiao’s brows furrowed, what was Bai Jingze calling for at this ti?
After hesitating for a mont, she still answered the call.
“Wanqiao, I’ve heard about what happened to your Su Group.
Do you need help?” On the other end of the line, Bai Jingze’s gentle voice ca through.
“No need, are you calling to mock ?
If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up,” Su Wanqiao replied coldly and was about to end the call.
“Wait, Wanqiao, I’m calling you today to talk about our marriage arrangent,” Bai Jingze’s gentle voice ca from the other end of the line.
“I’ve told you, I won’t marry you, give up on that thought,” Su Wanqiao said coldly.
On the other end, Bai Jingze responded, “I know, and that’s why I want to see you tonight to discuss the arrangent.
Even if you want to call off the engagent, we still need to talk things through, right?”
After considering for a mont, Su Wanqiao replied, “Fine.”
She made an appointnt for a Western restaurant with Bai Jingze, preparing to et him.
Her engagent to the Bai Family was the result of careless words spoken by her father decades ago while drinking.
Twenty years ago, her father and the head of the Bai Family were close friends in business.
The child betrothal they had carelessly agreed upon two decades earlier…
should not be Su Wanqiao’s burden to bear today.
Su Wanqiao planned to clarify everything that night and sever ties with the Bai Family.
She asked Lin Shuang to take her sister ho first, then had Lin Shuang personally escort her to the prearranged Western restaurant.
…
Half an hour later, the red-flag sedan slowly stopped at the entrance of the Blue Whale Western Restaurant.
Lin Shuang and Su Wanqiao got out of the car.
Lin Shuang took a look around the restaurant, lit a cigarette, and said, “Huh, looks like the restaurant is booked for tonight?
I doubt dinner will be pleasant.”
“What do you an?” Su Wanqiao asked.
“There are bodyguards lurking around the restaurant, seems like it might be a setup for a trap,” Lin Shuang said lightly, blowing out a ring of smoke.
