381 Ultimatum

“Uncle Tang, you’re being too serious. Our Zhou Corporation doesn’t lack money or things, so I don’t want anything.”

Zhou Xuan’s tone was very firm, giving off an invisible pressure. “I only have one request. It’s very simple. Return all the money to the citizens of the Federation City and clarify that this matter has nothing to do with the Shan Corporation. As for the rest, I can ignore it.”

“President Zhou, do you have to be so ruthless?” Tang Xia’s words were trembling. He was at his wits’ end. “We’re the first partners. Shan Yue is just an outsider. Why are you helping an outsider?”

Zhou Xuan shook his head helplessly from the bed. “Uncle Tang, you’re wrong. There’s no eternal partner in business, only eternal benefits. You should understand this logic earlier than me, right? Why are you so confused now?”

“Since you’re doing this for benefits, I can give you money.” Tang Xia was very anxious. “I can give you half of the money I earn. You can even get hundreds of billions of assets without doing anything.”

“I remember that Uncle Tang used to be one of the most law-abiding entrepreneurs in Federal City. How did you become like this after what happened last time? This time, it’s no longer about money. I have my own principles, so I won’t make concessions.”

Tang Xia knew that his plan had failed again. “President Zhou, don’t tell me you really like Shan Yue as the rumors say. She’s a bottomless woman. Because of her arrival, the entire Federal City has changed. You don’t know what else is hidden behind her. Once my Tang Corporation declines, won’t your Zhou Corporation be the next to be dealt with?”

It was obvious that Tang Xia was still making one last effort to sow discord between the two of them with his words and find a chance to survive.

However, his words really hit home. If Shan Yue had set off a wave in his heart during the Las Vegas project.

Then, not long ago, in Pang Village, Shan Yue had truly touched his heart during a night of escape. She had made Zhou Xuan feel differently about a girl for the first time in more than twenty years.

As for the annexation of the Zhou family, if Tang Xia had said that in the past, Zhou Xuan would definitely have doubts and be prepared.

However, if Shan Yue really had designs on the Zhou family, she would not have saved the group of people, including him, in Pang Village. Therefore, Zhou Xuan had completely dispelled his doubts in this aspect.

Zhou Xuan did not answer Tang Xia’s question directly. He only issued an ultimatum.

“President Tang, I know what you mean. You don’t have to say anything else. We all know what you mean.”

Zhou Xuan’s words suddenly turned cold. “I’m already calling you today on account of our past relationship. There are some things that I’ll only say one last time. I’m still the one resolving it now. Do as I say, and everyone can live in harmony in the end. If we let Shan Yue resolve it, you won’t be so lucky. In the end, whether you’ll enter the court or suffer more serious consequences, we can only leave it to fate.”

With that, Zhou Xuan didn’t say anything else. Without waiting for Tang Xia to respond, he hung up.

The three people in the office looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

After a moment of silence, Tang Li was the first to break the stalemate. “Dad, what should we do now? Should we listen to Zhou Xuan? He has already unlocked the password and knows that we’re the ones who did this.”

“That’s not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is his attitude towards helping the Shan Corporation.”

It took Tang Xia a long time to recover from the phone call. “His tone on the phone was not to discuss with us at all. He was just here to inform us. He wanted to tell us that if we don’t do as he asks, we’ll bear the consequences.”

Then, Tang Xia slowly looked at Yun Yan, who was also at a loss. “Didn’t you say that only one person had the chance to unlock the password you set? What’s going on now? At the most critical moment of the development of the matter, there was actually a mistake. This had a good opening but a bad ending. In the end, it actually failed.”

Perhaps the three of them would never have dreamed that Zhou Xuan was the only person who had a chance. Moreover, even if Zhou Xuan did not make a move, Shan Yue would still be able to find out the final direction. It could only be said that Tang Xia was still too naive.
