Chapter 75: Chen Xiaoyi Confronts Her Rival

An hour later, the transaction contract, in duplicate, was signed, and Zhang Hai left the café with a bitter smile on his face, clutching a one-dollar coin.

Chen Xiaoyi looked at Lu Li, utterly astounded, her eyes filled with admiration, which made Lu Li quite pleased with himself.

“If you want to ask, just ask. This was meant to be a lesson for you,” Lu Li said, raising his eyebrows playfully.

“Lu Li, President Lu, Brother Lu, how did you do it? That shareholder, Zhang Hai, actually sold those shares to you for a dollar,” Chen Xiaoyi asked, clinging to Lu Li’s arm, looking up to him as if he were a towering mountain.

The sweet succession of titles made Lu Li feel particularly appreciated.

“It was just a matter of showing him something on the computer that scared him enough to sell. Such a tactic, too brilliant.”

“What else could it be? I had something on him that could make his death ugly and lead to his family’s ruin. Whether Zhang Hai was motivated by family or the instinct to survive, I don’t know.” Lu Li shrugged nonchalantly, then his expression turned serious as he looked at Chen Xiaoyi.

“Xiaoyi, you have a great talent for business; even I can’t find fault with it. But remember, there’s no bottom line for businessmen, and in business dealings, there are no limits to the methods used.”

“If it wasn’t for the Lu family backing me, Zhang Hai wouldn’t have let go so easily. Most likely, he would have fought to the death with me.”

A ten percent profit drives people mad, twenty percent leads them to take risks, and beyond thirty percent, a businessman will risk his life.

If it were an ordinary person, even with leverage over Zhang Hai, would he give up his shares because of a threat? Unlikely.

Business matters are never just business. The hidden storms behind them are as turbulent as any battlefield.

Chen Xiaoyi’s expression also turned solemn; she knew Lu Li was teaching her. She nodded seriously.

Having weathered storms herself, she wasn’t naïve like a little girl.

If Lu Li needed her to do those things, she would do them without hesitation. To Chen Xiaoyi, Lu Li was the brightest light in her dark life, someone she was determined to hold onto at all costs.

Even if she didn’t like it, if Lu Li needed it, she, Chen Xiaoyi, would help him achieve it.

Seeing Chen Xiaoyi’s reaction, Lu Li gave a tender smile. He truly adored these girls who showed him such favoritism.

“Now that we suddenly have twenty percent of Zhang Company’s shares, we have much more room to maneuver. Now, Xiaoyi, do you think you can take revenge for me?”

“Yes, Brother Lu, I’ll make sure Zhang Company goes bankrupt,” Chen Xiaoyi said firmly, knowing Lu Li had paved the way for her. Failing his task would be too disappointing.

“Ah, that ‘Brother Lu’ sounds really good,” Lu Li nodded, satisfied.

“Hmm…” Chen Xiaoyi blushed.

After You Meng appeared, she had been wanting to change how she addressed Lu Li, just never finding the right moment. To hear that shameless woman You Meng immediately calling Lu Li “big brother” and later “Master Brother” was just too shameless.

She was dying of envy!

“From now on, that’s how you’ll call me, no changes allowed,” Lu Li said with a beaming smile, clearly delighted. Outside, it was “Brother,” and at home, it would be… “Daddy,” it seemed.

He had just made the arrangements clear for Chen Xiaoyi.

“Okay!”

Lesson over, and once back at the company, Chen Xiaoyi started working feverishly. Taking revenge for Lu Li and bankrupting that green tea woman was all she could think about.

Right, in Chen Xiaoyi’s eyes, Zhang Ziqin was nothing but a green tea woman.

When Lu Li pursued her, she kept him hanging yet constantly took advantages from him. Later, when Lu Li stopped pursuing her, she shamelessly came back, clinging to him. If that’s not the behavior of a green tea woman, what is?

The team was ready, all top-notch professionals from Lu Company. With twenty percent of Zhang Company’s shares and the dirt on Zhang Company Lu Li had prepared, failing to fulfill his request would be too shameful for Chen Xiaoyi.

This time, they would make Zhang Ziqin spit out everything she had taken from Lu Li.

“Manager Chen, regarding the dirt, do we hire internet trolls, or do we handle it ourselves?” someone asked Chen Xiaoyi.

Regardless of what they thought about her rise through Lu Li, Chen Xiaoyi had proven her worth. If she had been promoted to manager just through connections, she would have been ridiculed. But having the capability and Lu Li’s support made it a match made in heaven.

Now, aside from a few jealous women in the company, no one dared to gossip about her and Lu Li.

“Both. We’ll do it ourselves and also employ internet trolls. We must make sure the news spreads far and wide,” Chen Xiaoyi said with an icy tone, sending shivers down the spines of those listening.

Employing internet trolls was to expand the influence, while Lu Company taking action was to show Zhang Ziqin they were serious about bringing her down, a warning and revenge for Lu Li.

That damnable woman dared to treat Lu Li like a lapdog, calling him whenever she wanted and dismissing him just as easily. How dare she, when Chen Xiaoyi herself wanted to cherish him so dearly?

Chen Xiaoyi’s face was a picture of frosty determination.

“Understood…”

President Lu was really ruthless! To act against a woman he once liked this way, was it because of love turned into hate?

Those under her command thought to themselves.

Shivering, they realized this was about hand-tearing a love rival. They couldn’t afford to provoke her!
