"You say!"

Ye Xiao said, "After the deal is done, Hengzhiyuan Group will still be Hengzhiyuan Group, the chairmanship and general manager positions will belong to you and your father. Although I will hold absolute control, I won't get involved in the management. That is to say, within Hengzhiyuan Group, you and your father will have a very significant say."

"You're asking for too much!" Guo Chuan said angrily.

Ye Xiao replied, "You have no other choice!"

"What do you mean?" Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Guo Chuan said, "I'm out!"

"It's not up to you!" Ye Xiao declared!

Hearing these two sentences from Ye Xiao, Guo Chuan was utterly confused, his mind in a whirl.

Guo Chuan confronted Ye Xiao, "What on earth are you trying to say?"

Ye Xiao didn't reply, but suddenly there was a sound from his phone in his hand; it wasn't music, but a recording!

When Guo Chuan heard the content of this recording, he was completely stunned. The recording was none other than the conversation he'd had with Ye Xiao since he'd come in.

"You're blackmailing me!" Guo Chuan immediately said in rage, his eyes wide with fury as if he wanted to strangle Ye Xiao!

Ye Xiao simply smiled, and at that moment, Yang Ming came in with tea. Seeing Guo Chuan's angry face, he was quite puzzled. He put down the tea and looked at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao said, "Go have your meal, nothing to worry about here."

Yang Ming nodded at Ye Xiao's words, gave Guo Chuan one last look, and then quickly left.

"Have some tea, cool down a bit," said Ye Xiao as he picked up a teacup with an amused smile.

"Give me that phone!" Guo Chuan's face turned cold, and his hand stealthily moved towards his lower back!

Guo Chuan did it quite covertly, but Ye Xiao noticed clearly and said with a slight smile, "What else do you think you can do to me?"

"I'll say it again, give me the phone, or I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life!" Guo Chuan said with a face full of anger!

Ye Xiao immediately responded with a chuckle, "Well, I'd like to see how exactly you plan to make me regret it for the rest of my life."

During this exchange, Guo Chuan pulled out a silver Narolber pistol from behind his waist and pointed it at Ye Xiao's head.

Guo Chuan had hoped to see surprise and fear on Ye Xiao's face, but he failed. Ye Xiao's face showed nothing but smiles, nothing more.

"You'd better put the gun down!" Ye Xiao said, locking eyes with Guo Chuan!

"Ye Xiao, I don't want to take action here, but you'd better cooperate with me. Give me the phone," Guo Chuan said, glaring at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao shrugged and said, "I gave you a chance, but you..."

Just as Ye Xiao said the words "but you," he disappeared from the bed in an instant!

How could someone just vanish all of a sudden? Surprise slowly spread across Guo Chuan's face. He wanted to look around to see if Ye Xiao was there. He was successful and did find him. Ye Xiao was now behind him. Guo Chuan immediately raised his gun and aimed once again at Ye Xiao's head.

Guo Chuan was also driven to desperation. He knew exactly what that recording represented, and if those three families found out about it, the Guo family would be totally doomed. So, his current state of mind was understandable; to protect himself and his father from danger, he would even go as far as killing Ye Xiao and destroying the cell phone to prevent the recording from leaking.

But at this moment, Ye Xiao's hand snatched Guo Chuan's pistol like lightning. Guo Chuan immediately tried to pull the trigger, but no matter how hard he tried, it wouldn't budge because Ye Xiao had jammed the gun's trigger with his finger.

Guo Chuan immediately realized something was terribly wrong, but by then it was obviously too late. Ye Xiao's other hand was choking Guo Chuan's neck, and he had no choice but to surrender the gun!

Ye Xiao's hand lifted slightly, and Guo Chuan felt like he was about to suffocate. Was this the rhythm of death?

It wasn't until Guo Chuan stuck out his tongue and his eyes were about to roll back that Ye Xiao finally released his grip, throwing Guo Chuan to the ground.

Guo Chuan, tossed onto the floor, sat there gasping for air greedily, as if the air was the finest food.

Clutching his throat, Guo Chuan looked up at Ye Xiao with shocked eyes, unable to believe what had just happened. How had Ye Xiao done that? How could a person teleport instantly? Was that even real?

Meanwhile, Ye Xiao played with the Narolber pistol in his hand, chuckling, "Nice gun, let's continue our conversation from before, shall we?"

"Conversation?" When Guo Chuan heard Ye Xiao's words, he almost cried.

Was this still called a conversation?

With that kind of damning evidence in Ye Xiao's possession, Guo Chuan felt like he was dying.

Sitting on the ground, composed yet with eyes ringed red, his expression was one of utter despair.

"Haha, is it really such a big deal?" Ye Xiao laughed heartily. "Actually, you should always think positively. Now think about it again, how about my previous offer? Isn't it extremely practical and, most importantly, wouldn't it ensure a very glorious second half of your and your father's lives?"

Guo Chuan really couldn't stand it; the plan he and his father had carefully concocted to take over all shares of Heng Zhiyuan had been utterly ruined because of one encounter with Ye Xiao.

Yes, they had truly lost.

Not to the three families they had always considered their rivals, but to this young man whom they had barely met a few times. This was an enormous irony.

"I... I need to discuss this with my father!" Guo Chuan said listlessly.

Now Guo Chuan really didn't know what to do.

Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "Of course, didn't I tell you already? You should discuss it with your father. I believe he will understand whether you can handle such a large 'cake' or not."

Guo Chuan stood up; he didn't want to see Ye Xiao anymore and so he headed straight for the door. But just a few steps out, he heard Ye Xiao say, "Mr. Guo, wait a moment!"

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Guo Chuan immediately turned around.

Ye Xiao picked up the Narolber pistol, smiling as he spoke, "This is yours. I don't like taking other people's things."

Hearing Ye Xiao's words made Guo Chuan so angry he could spit blood. Not liking to take other people's things? What about those seventy percent of the shares that belonged to someone else?

Ye Xiao tossed the pistol to Guo Chuan, who caught it and quickly tucked it at his waist, looking at Ye Xiao saying, "I will give you an answer as soon as possible. About that recording..."

"Don't worry, I'm interested in those seventy percent of the shares!" Ye Xiao said with a smile!

Only then did Guo Chuan leave the office reassured. As he reached the office door, there was a knock!

Guo Chuan opened the door and was surprised to see a group of stunningly beautiful women. Wasn't it Ling Shuya and others? Each of them was carrying a lunch box; were they bringing Ye Xiao his meal?
