Chapter 138: Qin Tao's Perverted Behavior [29th 7/13]
The next day.
The front-page headlines of Jing'an City's major media outlets shocked everyone.
Especially those who had witnessed Xu Hao and Gu Yi's wealth showdown the previous afternoon, their hearts were now stirring with towering waves!
The chairman of the mighty Wangsheng Real Estate, Gu Yi, had actually committed suicide out of fear of punishment, dying in his car!
And all of this stemmed from just one sentence uttered by that young man!
...
But at that moment, the person at the center of the affair, Xu Hao, had just woken up from his sleep.
Seeing Qin Yao, gentle and adorable, snuggling up beside him like a little kitten, he couldn't help but lean over and give her a kiss.
But this woke Qin Yao up. She looked up at Xu Hao and said with a shy face, "You bad man! Not letting me sleep peacefully even in the early morning."
Xu Hao smiled and said, "You go back to sleep, I'll make breakfast for you."
With that, Xu Hao got out of bed and went to cook for Qin Yao.
Qin Yao closed her eyes happily and slept a little longer.
When she opened her eyes, she found the table full of sumptuous dishes.
Her eyes misty, it was the first time someone had treated her so kindly since her parents' death more than two years ago.
She looked at her late parents' portrait on the wall and silently said in her heart, "Dad, Mom, can you see this? Your daughter has found a very good partner. Although he can't be with your daughter all the time, coming over once in a while is already very satisfying for her."
Xu Hao walked over and pinched her little face, smiling, "Silly girl, what are you thinking about? Hurry up, wash your face, and let's eat."
"Okay."
At this moment, Qin Yao was no longer the aloof company chairman she was in front of others, but a well-behaved little girl by Xu Hao's side.
Looking at the portrait on the wall, Xu Hao let out a soft sigh. Qin Yao's parents had died in a car accident, their deaths too sudden. He remembered how Qin Yao had come to him, crying for a long, long time.
But back then, he knew he wasn't worthy of Qin Yao, lacking the courage to speak up.
After breakfast, before the two could spend a moment together, Qin Yao's phone rang.
Putting down the phone, Qin Yao said with a furrowed brow, "There's trouble at the company; those veterans are clamoring to redistribute the shares."
Xu Hao asked, "Redistribute the shares? Why? Weren't the shares already allocated when your father started the business over a decade ago?"
Qin Yao sighed helplessly, "Alas, human greed knows no bounds. Recently, the company faced a major crisis, and they all played dead. Now that the crisis has finally passed and the company's performance is beginning to improve steadily, they take advantage of the fact that I have little say in the company, plotting to carve up my shares."
"How much of the company's shares do you still own?"
With a troubled look, Qin Yao said, "I'm left with only 51%. If even a little bit is divvied up, I'll lose control of the group in the eyes of the law, and they will gradually devour the rest of my shares."
"Can't you refuse to give them the shares?"
"It seems impossible at the moment. If I don't agree, they will instigate the employees to slack off, and the whole group will become a mess. I don't want to watch my father's legacy get destroyed in my hands."
Xu Hao shook his head, "But if you hand over the group's shares, it's the same as losing the entire group. I don't think this is what your father would want to see, in heaven or not."
Qin Yao sighed, "That's what these people are doing, cornering me and it's not even illegal. What can I do?"
Xu Hao pondered for a moment and said, "I've been planning to enter the cosmetics industry recently. How about I acquire your group, and then you become the general manager of the cosmetics division of my group? What do you think?"
Without hesitation, Qin Yao said, "Of course, I can! It's just that these people live off their stock dividends every year; I'm afraid they won't be willing, right?"
Xu Hao smiled, "Don't forget, your man is very capable!"
Qin Yao immediately hugged Xu Hao tightly and said sweetly, "You're so good to me!"
"Hahaha..."
...
When Xu Hao stepped out of the car with Qin Yao in his arms, everyone who saw them nearly had fire shooting out of their eyes.
They could not bear to see the beauty and chairman they longed for embracing another man.
One young man stepped out and directly scolded, "Let go of my cousin, or I'll have security throw you out!"
Seeing Xu Hao unfazed, he instantly became furious, "Security, throw this man out right now! Dammit, daring to hold onto the woman Qin Tao has his eyes on!"
Qin Yao looked at him with disgust and whispered to Xu Hao, "This shameless man is my great uncle's eldest son, and he has had improper thoughts about me for a long time."
Xu Hao glanced at him and said indifferently, "Qin Tao? You actually have such vile thoughts. Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
"Retribution? Hahaha! You're trying to make me die of laughter, aren't you? What era are we in to still believe in such things?"
Qin Tao laughed scornfully and then disdainfully said, "I am a firm atheist. I don't believe in any retribution. Life is short, I believe in living it up!"
