Chapter 45

That meant.

Regardless of whether she divorced Shen Lin or not...

This debt was bound to fall squarely on her shoulders, and she could no longer escape it!

At this thought...

Li Guifen's legs went soft, and she nearly slid from her stool down beneath the table...

Feng Xin's face turned completely pale.

He took a deep breath, looked at Lin Qingying, and asked through gritted teeth, "Manager Lin, what on earth is going on here? I hope you can give me an explanation! Give all of us an explanation!"

Sun Yuan also abruptly stood up, pointing a chubby finger at Lin Qingying and shouting, "Lin Qingying, what is the meaning of this? Make it clear to me!"

"Right! Make it clear!"

"That's right!"

Listening to the voices, a dumbfounded Li Guifen suddenly seemed to find some kind of breakthrough.

She got up from her chair, her hair somehow standing on end in several places, and shrieked with gritted teeth, "Lin, you lied to me! You framed me! How dare you frame me! I'll kill you!!!"

She screamed incoherently a few times, swung her arms in wide arcs, and charged straight at Lin Qingying.

"Sister-in-law, wait, listen to me first..."

"Sister-in-law, listen to me first..."

Lin Qingying was right.

When Li Guifen had trouble, she really went all out.

Yet the first person she truly went all out on was not Shen Qingyan.

It was him!

Despite dodging repeatedly, he was still struck several times by Li Guifen's mad-dog-like attack and had his face scratched up completely.

Warm blood streamed down from his forehead. He reached out to wipe it, and upon discovering it was blood, his anger could no longer be contained. He swung his arm in a wide arc and delivered a vicious slap across the face of Li Guifen, who was still frantically scratching at him!

Slap! ...

: Solution? That's right, sell shares! 4 updates requested for collection

This slap was exceptionally loud, instantly causing a stunned Li Guifen to clutch her face and quiet down, while also bringing absolute silence to the entire conference room.

Lin Qingying took a deep breath, dropped heavily back into his chair, pulled out a cigarette, and lit it right there without caring about the location.

"Hiss... puff!"

"I can understand you being agitated, but I'm helpless against this kind of situation."

"How could we possibly guess the minds of the investors?"

"My shares are worth more, so the debt I have to shoulder is also greater."

"The money I've pulled out to subsidize the group over this period is several times more than yours, too."

"Therefore, with something like this happening, I am the one who should be the most anxious!"

Lin Qingying's words.

Made the people briefly grow a fraction calmer.

He continued, "Fortunately, however, I have already found a solution."

"Found a solution?"

"What solution?"

"You managed to find other investments?"

The people asked in a hurry.

Lin Qingying shook his head: "No other investments. Forget Magic City; across the entire country, not a single person would be willing to invest in us..."

"Nobody is willing to invest, then what solution are you talking about?" Sun Yuan asked with a solemn voice: "It couldn't possibly be selling shares, could it?"

Lin Qingying looked at him and nodded with utmost seriousness: "That's right, it's selling shares!"

"Are you kidding me?!" Feng Xin frowned and said: "What time do you think it is right now? Sell shares?"

"Even if you're willing to sell, is there anyone willing to take them? Who would spend money to buy a mountain of debt-ridden shares?"

Lin Qingying nodded with absolute sincerity: "I have found someone willing to buy the shares in our hands."

"What?" Feng Xin was stunned.

"I've already found someone willing to acquire our shares," Lin Qingying raised his voice and said. "It's just that the price is a bit low; my shares are only worth 500,000."

Ten-thousand?

The moment this number came out.

The entire conference room descended into chaos once again.

"500,000? I didn't hear that wrong, did I?"

"He's crazy, he must be out of his mind!"

"Lin Qingying has so many shares, and they're only worth 500,000? Doesn't that mean ours are worth even less?"

Lin Qingying said: "This price is actually quite a lot already. After all, being able to shake off the debt brought by the shares is the top priority! No matter how much money it is—even if it's 50 yuan—having someone willing to take this hot potato off our hands is already a fantastic blessing!"

The people looked at each other in dismay.

That was indeed how things stood.

Yet...

"I just took out over 700,000 yesterday and threw it into the group, and now I have to sell my shares for a few hundred thousand? Why the hell didn't you say so earlier!"

"I brought out a lot, too..."

"Me too..."

Lin Qingying said: "I put in several million, isn't it the same for me? None of us wanted to see this happen, but it has already occurred... So let's not worry about how much we're losing. Cutting our losses in time is what matters most! If you can't bear to let go today, the company will go bankrupt tomorrow, and you'll be saddled with debts that will make it impossible for you to draw a breath for the rest of your lives, even leaving you homeless and utterly ruined..."

Inside the conference room.

The people fell into a blanket of silence.

Someone spoke up to ask: "Then have your shares been sold?"

Lin Qingying directly produced a contract: "Right before I came here, I already sold the shares in my hands. This is my equity transfer agreement."

: Regretting it so much bowels turned green, why didn't he sell sooner! 5 updates requested for collection

The people inspected his contract and exchanged glances with one another.

Though extremely reluctant, they still gritted their teeth and nodded one after another: "Fine, we'll sell too!"

"Mine are for sale as well!"

"Damn it, you screwed us over to death. Sell, we're selling!"

Sun Yuan and Feng Xin looked at Lin Qingying's contract with a myriad of lingering resentments in their hearts, but they still gritted their teeth and said: "Sell! I'm selling too!"

"I'll sell as well, when can we sign the contract?" Li Guifen asked Lin Qingying anxiously.

Lin Qingying cast a disgusted glance at her and shook his head, saying: "I don't know about that."

"I can only give you the contact information of the person acquiring our shares. Anything else, I have no idea."

The people exchanged glances.

Immediately, someone stood up directly, preparing to leave.

It was truly lacking in manners.

Yet since the company had already collapsed, did they still need to observe a single shred of polite decency toward the people here? Not sending the mothers of everyone present here out for a greeting before leaving was already the absolute limit of courtesy.

"Everyone, wait a moment!"

And right as everyone was about to leave one after another.

Lin Qingying suddenly spoke up and called them back.

Everyone looked at him in bewilderment.

He took a deep breath and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, us being together can be considered working side by side for so many years. Now the tree has fallen and the monkeys have scattered, and we can only say our luck has run out."

"Yet it has been five years."

"We fought with that little brat Shen Qingyan for a full five years, and in the end, we've been reduced to this kind of outcome."

"I am not reconciled to this, and I believe none of you are either."

"Therefore, I would like to make one final request of everyone."

"And that is to temporarily blockade the news of the investors withdrawing their capital."

"In this way, Shen Qingyan will have no idea what is happening."

"By the time the group can no longer hold on and completely collapses, it will finally dawn on her."

"Yet by that time, she will long since be powerless to turn things around!"
