Li Wen: I Want to Leave the Group to Xiao Yi

Li Wen shook his head. "This isn't a matter of sincerity. I need that land to build a school."

"Many people from Port City go out to work, and a significant reason is education. Furun Group, as a major industry in this city, naturally needs to contribute to the city."

Everyone listened, slightly stunned, a hint of surprise flashing in their eyes. So, he's a veteran. His perspective is really broad.

Miss Huang was silent for a moment, then continued, "How about this: my company in Magic City will fund the construction of a school elsewhere in the city. You sell me that piece of land."

The three bosses chimed in. "Manager Li, please agree. Miss Huang has already made a big concession."

"This is a great condition, a win-win for both sides. Agree quickly!"

"Li Wen, Miss Huang is giving you face, you should accept it. You can't afford to incur the wrath of Magic City."

Xu Yi watched the two sides put on a united front and couldn't help but be speechless. Indeed, the world is just a giant makeshift stage. He had actually thought there would be a passionate business war.

To everyone's surprise, Li Wen shook his head, his tone still firm. "No!"

"The southwest urban area has good transportation, making it convenient for children to go to school. Besides, our city can handle its own education. We don't need any help from Magic City." The lifeline must be held in our own hands.

Miss Huang: "Then let's co-invest in the school, with you holding the majority stake."

"Still no."

Miss Huang closed her eyes and stopped speaking. The other three looked extremely displeased. To put it bluntly, the three of them were using Miss Huang's status to act tough. Now that Li Wen wasn't even giving her face, was there any hope for further negotiation?

Shen Shi slammed the table forcefully. "Li Wen, don't mistake politeness for weakness. You should know that even though you're the leading enterprise in this city, if Miss Huang truly wanted to deal with you, it would be as easy as crushing an ant."

"I know, but I'm not afraid."

"You!"

Gu Feng: "You're amazing, so noble. If not for yourself, you should at least consider your nephew. Oh, that's right~" Gu Feng chuckled a couple of times. "After all, you're not related by blood. So you wouldn't consider his future, would you?"

"Stop trying to sow discord!" Li Wen stood up in anger.

"Oh? Am I wrong?"

"Xiao Yi, I'm sorry..." Li Wen looked at Xu Yi, his face full of guilt. His fingernails dug deeply into his flesh as he wrestled with himself internally. Brother Fan, will you blame me for this?

Xu Yi naturally saw Li Wen's struggle and kindly comforted him, "It's okay, Uncle Li. You've already done enough for me. If it weren't for you, I'd probably still be skipping class to work part-time every day."

"Skip?" Li Wen clenched his fists tighter.

"Li Wen, you might as well have been a deserter!"

"If you need anything, go find your Uncle Li. He's Dad's best brother."

"How nice~ Brother Fan took a bullet for you and entrusted his son to you. He must be doing well, right?"

Numerous voices echoed in Li Wen's mind. With each replay, his face turned paler.

[Guilt Points +200] [Guilt Points +200] [……]

Xu Yi stared with wide, bewildered eyes. What the heck? I just said a few comforting words, and he's feeling guilty now?

"Enough!" Li Wen suddenly roared, startling everyone. "I've done enough for them. Xiao Yi, this time Uncle Li is only doing this for you..."

Xu Yi: "???"

What happened?

The sudden deep affection left me completely flustered.

Li Wen continued, "Xiao Yi, I will hand over the Furun Group to you in the future."

"!!??"

whathappen?

MEN!

Xu Yi was completely confused. Why was he suddenly supposed to take over the group?

Uncle Li, are you really that bold? Your son isn't your biological son, is he?

I don't have a son... Never mind.

"Miss Huang, I can agree..."

"Uncle Li!"

Before Li Wen could finish speaking, Xu Yi interrupted him.

"Uncle Li, don't rush to agree. Let's hear what Huaqing (crossed out) the three of them have to say."

Ji Bowen sneered, "The matter concerning the three of us is very easy to discuss.

Our three groups want to invest in Furun Group. Each will buy 15% of the shares."

Xu Yi couldn't help but scoff, "You're dreaming. 45% of the shares? You might as well ask for the Chairman's position."

Ji Bowen was furious. How had he not noticed this young man's sharp tongue before?

"Who is this brat? Go cool off somewhere else."

Li Wen: "What he says is what I say."

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

"Don't even think about buying shares. Furun Group only needs my voice to be heard."

Ji Bowen was not giving up and continued, "Then let's both compromise. Our families will each buy 10%."

"No."

"8%"

"No."

"7%"

"No."

"We're offering 30% above market price, isn't that enough?"

"No."

Li Wen's repeated "no"s broke them.

"Why?!"

Shen Shi: "Li Wen, although Furun Group is an industrial pillar, it's been in turmoil for a long time, right? It's in a very dangerous period.

From what I understand, three of your affiliated hospitals and one property development have already gone bankrupt."

Xu Yi couldn't help but look at Li Wen.

What? It's been in turmoil for a long time?

There hasn't been any news outside at all.

Li Wen didn't hide it, "Yes."

"Furun Group might go bankrupt."

"So what?"

"..."

"Isn't it better for us three families to buy the shares now and help you withstand the risks and overcome the difficulties together? Unity is strength, much better than one person working behind closed doors."

Li Wen nodded, "That's true, but it's still a no."

The three of them simultaneously thought "mmp" in their minds.

"Why?" Ji Bowen asked patiently.

"Because I want to leave Furun Group to Xiao Yi. If your three families get involved, Xiao Yi will definitely be manipulated by you.

I cannot pass on even a sliver of risk to Xiao Yi."

The three of them burst out laughing, thinking he was truly out of his mind.

He really intended to pass the group on to a child with no blood relation?

"You're talking nonsense. Brother Fan is my brother, though not from the same mother or father."

At this moment, Gu Feng asked the fatal question.

"What if the company suddenly goes bankrupt? Are you planning to saddle this little brat with a mountain of debt?"

A flicker of nervousness flashed in Li Wen's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.

"You don't need to worry about that; the Group will naturally overcome this difficulty."

"Heh heh~ Hilarious!"

At this moment, the three looked at Xu Yi as if they wanted to devour him. If looks could kill, Xu Yi would have died ten thousand times over.

[Negative Emotion Points +200 * 3]

Xu Yi felt like crying and laughing at the same time. He was clearly just a broke student who had stumbled into a high-stakes game.

He hadn't even done anything yet, and he was already at the center of the storm.

But with the system backing him up, who was he afraid of?

The negotiations remained deadlocked. The three exchanged glances and decided to unleash their final trump card.
