Feng Jun's retort carried considerable force, and Dou Jiahui spoke sternly as well. "If this is how your company conducts business, then regarding our cooperation... we'll have to reconsider it seriously."
Lin Xiaojia was angry too. She said sternly, "Third Uncle, we were discussing this perfectly well. You're... putting me in a difficult position."
"What was perfectly well about it?" Third Uncle said sternly. "Have they paid? The full one million?"
"The full one million... what are you thinking?" Dou Jiahui gave a cold laugh. "It's not that I can't afford it, but I'm not going to use my money to fund someone else's cash flow, especially with this kind of attitude."
Mr. Zhou sneered. "They couldn't afford it in the first place... could they?"
"Mr. Zhou!" Lin Xiaojia's face turned red with anger. "This is White Night, the Lin Family's White Night. It doesn't belong to the Zhou Family!"
Mr. Zhou said nothing, merely watching Third Uncle with calm composure.
Third Uncle could no longer save face. This White Night had been established by him and the eldest brother, with the second brother and eldest sister also holding some shares.
Lin Xiaojia was the second brother's daughter. Lin Old Third and the eldest brother already had some conflicting business philosophies, while Lin Xiaojia represented the will of the second brother and eldest sister.
Family businesses were usually tightly united, but disputes were not uncommon. If they were merely conflicts of interest, everyone could still sit down and negotiate. But if business philosophies diverged, they might not even have the patience to hear the other side out.
Even with Dou Jiahui's shallow business knowledge, he could sense that something was off about White Night. There really was a reason for it.
Lin Xiaojia actually did not want to get involved
