Chapter 178 The Hunt 2

Zhou Minyi's small villa.

Knock on the door.

Zhou Minyi opened the door.

"Tianyi".

"Nuonuo".

The woman's eyes were red.

Go inside and sit down.

You've lost weight.

I'm currently on a diet.

long silence.

Zhou Minyi was dressed in casual clothes and without makeup. Her normally fair and healthy skin appeared somewhat yellowish, likely due to not having been out for a long time.

"Why aren't you at work?"

"I've taken the day off. What's wrong? Is something the matter?"

"No, I just came back to see you. Have you eaten?"

Zhou Minyi shook her head.

"Let's go shopping, buy some groceries, and I'll cook for you tonight."

"kindness."

Zhou Minyi nodded and quickly went to change her clothes.

"Wait a minute, I need to put on some makeup."

After half an hour.

"What would you like to eat?"

"You made stewed lamb chops, braised pork, congee with preserved egg and lean pork, and hand-torn cabbage."

"Okay, everything's arranged for tonight."

Zhou Minyi put her arm around my shoulder, and we strolled through the entire mall.

After buying groceries, I went home and cooked a sumptuous dinner.

"This is delicious, and so is this. Tianyi, would you like some wine?"

I shook my head: "Don't worry, take your time eating. Nobody's going to take it from you. I'm not leaving tonight."

When Zhou Minyi heard the words "I'm not leaving," she burst into tears and ran to my side to hug me.

"Please don't leave. I'm afraid you'll never come back."

"Sweetie, eat slowly."

Zhou Minyi held me tightly and wouldn't let go.

"Eat up, and I'll tell you a story after you finish."

At her bedside, I told Zhou Minyi about my failed business venture in Shanghai and my suicide attempt, about going back to my hometown for blind dates, and about a woman in Beijing who was under a lot of pressure just like me, and how we were both working hard.

Zhou Minyi's fingers, gripping my clothes tightly, began to turn white at the tips.

I held her hand.

"Nuonuo, I must succeed. This isn't just a matter of feelings. Ever since I died once in Shanghai, I've wanted to climb to the top, to reach the very top!"

Zhou Minyi sobbed, trying desperately to keep herself from making a sound.

"Were you lying to me during your time in Liancheng?"

No, our feelings for each other are real.

Saying those words made me feel much better.

overnight.

When I woke up early, Zhou Minyi was still asleep, and I sat by her bedside all night.

I didn't wake her up when I left.

"Xiao Qi, let's go back to the provincial capital."

Call Qiuya: "Tell Xiaomai's family that they will be fine."

This really caught me off guard.

The plot of the novel did not come true for me.

Everyone says to wait until the pig is fattened before slaughtering it.

My company is only in Series A funding.

I can't wait that long!

They didn't give me any chance to grow and expand!

ZG Company.

Wang Yan and Xu Jingyan accompanied Xiao Mei and the others to check the accounts in the conference room.

"Captain Xiao, come have some coffee."

"Team Leader Xiao, there's steak at the company lunch today..."

Xiao Mei was baffled as two beautiful women fawned over her. If she weren't a woman, she would have mistakenly thought that the two women had taken a liking to her.

I pushed the door open.

"Captain Xiao, come out with me for a moment."

They came to my office and locked Wang Yan and Xu Jingyan out.

"Mr. Shen, what do you mean by this?"

I moved closer to Xiao Mei: "Tell me, which family are you from?"

"I don't understand what you're talking about?"

"So far, four companies have challenged me. You can investigate for a month or two without any problems, but if I can't hold out any longer, I'll just have to take action against one of them, and all your efforts will have been in vain!"

Xiao Mei remained silent.

"After checking the taxes, shouldn't you check the fire safety at the logistics and distribution warehouse?"

Xiao Mei looked at me in surprise.

I made the call right in front of her: "Xiaoqi, report ZG fire department for non-compliance and get the fire department to come and investigate."

"My current logistics warehouse delivers to 23 supermarkets in the provincial capital, has over 30 e-commerce partners, and holds more than 4000 million yuan in unpaid debts from suppliers. Starting tomorrow, the company will cease operations. A week from now, what will be left of this company? Still thinking about taking it public? Dream on!"

Xiao Mei hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "Zhou."

I knew it!

But I haven't figured out how to face the Zhou family yet.

At the very least, we mustn't break ties before the new logistics and distribution warehouse is fully relocated!

Open the door and let Xiao Mei out.

Wang Yan asked me, "Cousin, what happened?"

"It's alright, they'll leave in about a week."

I took out my phone and called Zhou Fei: "Brother Fei, tell Xiaomai and the others to go back."

"Tianyi, I can't make that decision."

"For Feng Hong's sake, let Xiaomai and the others go back. I guarantee that the Series B funding will not use any funds from local forces."

"Okay, I'll pass on your message..."

The Zhou family is afraid that I will switch sides with other families in the provincial capital during the Series B funding round, and that I will lose my advantage in the final harvest before the IPO.

So they decided to strike first.

Wu Yingrong called.

"Tianyi, they've agreed, but they want to see your sincerity."

"Series B funding won't work; I promised someone else that."

Wu Yingrong: "This is a difficult situation."

This is the first time I've been driven to the brink by a group of people.

"Let me think of a way."

I dialed Chen Yuanyuan's number again.

"Why did you suddenly call me, Mr. Shen?"

"Let's meet up? Let's go somewhere less crowded."

Hotel, room.

"Why did you choose this place?"

"As you requested."

I took out a cigarette and handed it to her: "I need your help."

Chen Yuanyuan: "Okay."

"Why did you agree without even asking?"

"The Chen family now only cares about making money in business. They finally managed to clean up their act, and they no longer use the old methods."

"Are you aware of the recent situation in ZG?"

"kindness."

What role did the Chen family play in all of this?

Chen Yuanyuan looked completely innocent: "The Chen family hasn't done anything yet."

"Want to take a shower?"

Chen Yuanyuan: "???"

"Since we're already here, let's take a shower first."

Chen Yuanyuan was baffled, her face clearly showing anger: "Shen Tianyi, if you called me here for this kind of thing, then I really overestimated you!"

Ignoring Chen Yuanyuan's anger, I took off my clothes.

Go into the shower room.

Sure enough, it took less than 5 minutes.

Chen Yuanyuan entered completely naked.

"Shh!"

I made a silencing gesture and turned the rain sound up to the maximum.

Chen Yuanyuan, her face flushed, pushed me away.

After all, we are now naked together.

"Is Su Hang one of your people?"

Chen Yuanyuan: "How did you know?"

Me: "Never mind how I know, all I want to know is how much power you have in the Chen family."

Chen Yuanyuan laughed and said, "So you've come here to ask me for help?"

I laughed and said, "If you want to enjoy it first, that's fine too."

Chen Yuanyuan subconsciously covered her lower abdomen.

"You're pregnant? Whose father? The Chen family?"

Chen Yuanyuan shook her head: "This is none of your business."

Me: "To be frank, I won't give the Series B funding to the Chen family, the Zhou family, or any other powerful figures in the provincial capital. However, I can give you a hidden stake in the Series C funding, which belongs to you."

Chen Yuanyuan was taken aback.

"Think about the value of your shares before the company goes public; consider this your way out. Now, I need your help."

"you say."

"I need you to warn someone for me, the deputy director of the Industrial Development Division of the Provincial Development and Reform Commission."
