I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping-Chapter 2255 - 1435: Blaming Me? (Part 2)

"I’m not worried, your little girlfriend is the one who’s worried."

Lan Peizhi revealed the truth, while also pointing out someone’s self-centeredness.

"Shu Rui? What does this have to do with her?"

Jiang Chen was caught off guard, his brain short-circuited a bit, he asked skeptically, "She told you this?"

As for the word "little," it was directly ignored; given Lan Peizhi’s age and experience, such a term was irrelevant.

"Do you think she should be worried?"

Lan Peizhi countered, with significant meaning.

Jiang Chen’s eyes flickered.

He thought it was a movie for just two people, but who knew the main creative team was far larger.

It seemed like only Shi Qianxi and Cao Jinse were on stage, but there were many people concerned behind the scenes.

Jiang Chen gave a bitter smile, finally understanding why the other party would intervene against the logic, he immediately stated, "I will fix it."

No matter what.

Whether in business or any other scenario, one must first show confidence.

Even if there’s no guarantee, one must appear poised to win.

"I don’t think you can manage it."

The opposition spoke frankly, giving no face at all, or rather, this was the most impartial judgment of Blood Guanyin.

"I’ll go to Jiuding Group tomorrow."

"Do you think just by showing up you can resolve the issue?"

Jiang Chen was silent.

Lan Peizhi had an insight like fire, directly revealing his inner thoughts. Actually, all previous rhetoric expressed this attitude. Jinhai was merely implicated; there’s no deep-seated hatred. If he’s willing to offer an apology and let Cao Jinse vent, Princess Cao probably wouldn’t be too particular, the crux would be resolved, and trouble wouldn’t be trouble anymore.

According to Jiang Chen’s thoughts, indeed, this conflict isn’t insurmountable. But Lan Peizhi’s next words were a real shock to him.

"She’s already formally proposed to Jinhai to acquire Great Wall’s shares for fifty billion. Do you think the words she’s said personally will be taken back?"

Jiang Chen was stunned, then moved, blurting out, "How is that possible."

"You didn’t know?"

He was caught off guard, and Lan Peizhi was caught off guard by his being caught off guard, understandingly said, "No wonder you still have the interest to drink."

Jiang Chen’s mind was in turmoil, only then realizing the seriousness of the issue.

No wonder Lan Peizhi questioned him repeatedly.

If it were just Cao Jinse’s sulking, then the problem wouldn’t be big; letting off steam would solve it.

But the fear is that Cao Jinse’s action is a calm, rational decision.

If that’s the case.

The situation is quite dire.

A decision made on a whim is easy to change, but if it’s a well-thought-out decision, will it be easily taken back?

"Who told you?"

Upon hearing him still ask such foolish childish questions, Lan Peizhi finally had an emotional outburst.

"Idiot!"

"..."

Jiang Chen was baffled by the rebuke, then realized.

Who else could it be.

It could only be Li Shuru who mentioned it.

And how did Li Shuru know?

It could only be Shi Qianxi.

They’re inseparable, only keeping it from him, leaving him in the dark, this... is indeed a bit embarrassing.

To make an inappropriate analogy.

The emperor is unaware of the plans among the concubines in the harem, only hearing it from a minister, it’s truly a laughingstock.

"Impossible."

Jiang Chen murmured as if to deceive himself.

Lan Peizhi clearly didn’t expect this guy to still be unaware of the true situation, should have understood this guy’s "naivety."

"I thought you knew women well."

"..."

Is this a compliment?

"I never understood."

Not understanding, can stir such a big storm?

Can make such outstanding women jealous?

If he truly doesn’t understand, should the provoked women feel ashamed, or should he feel ashamed?

There was silence on that end for a while, then a sound came through, "Blocking Jinhai from acquiring land seems to be Xiang Zhuang dancing with his sword. Cao Jinse’s initial goal was the shares in Jinhai’s hands."

Jiang Chen now understood.

"Are those shares that important to her?"

"If she successfully gets Jinhai’s shares, she would be the largest shareholder of Great Wall."

Lan Peizhi’s tone was without personal emotion, purely stating objective facts.

What?

Jiang Chen was surprised.

Could it be that Lan Peizhi cared too, and intervened not just out of personal relationships?

But even if she cared.

It seems entirely understandable.

Though Great Wall currently doesn’t match an established group like Jiuding Group, it has exceptional talent and promising prospects, caring is only natural.

"You don’t want her to successfully acquire the shares in Jinhai’s hands either?"

Jiang Chen couldn’t help but say, "Even if Jinhai sells the shares and she becomes the largest shareholder, she still won’t have decision-making power."

The shares in Jinhai’s hands and in Cao Jinse’s hands make a difference but not a major one.

Because Jinhai holds the smallest share, limited equity, even if Cao Jinse gets it, she still can’t form a 51% absolute holding, meaning as long as the remaining two shareholders, him and Lan Peizhi, band together, Great Wall will never be a one-man show.

Great Wall won’t change its surname due to this transaction.

"You’re quite good at calculating."

"Is there something wrong?"

Jiang Chen was indeed curious, even though neither Lan Peizhi nor Cao Jinse is led by emotions, or rather, they belong to an extremely rational type, not influenced by personal feelings in their decision-making, but anyhow, compared to Jinhai, it’s reasonable to say Lan Peizhi should be closer to Cao Jinse, right?

In the past.

When he met Cao Jinse, it was through her introduction.

The more he thought, the more confused he became, the more he reasoned, the more tangled.

The other side remained silent, not answering, so Jiang Chen decided not to pursue, "What should we do now."

After truly understanding the seriousness of the matter, he immediately started seeking help, really not caring about saving face, completely forgetting he just confidently proclaimed he could solve it alone.

"Weren’t you very confident?"

Jiang Chen smiled wryly, "I wasn’t aware she was eyeing the shares in Jinhai’s hands, you’re not helping me, you’re helping yourself. Now that she’s set on Jinhai’s shares, once Jinhai is dealt with, she might target the other shares."

It’s fine to joke.

But it needs a thought.

It is evident that Jiang Chen did not think thoroughly.

"But that would be a matter for later."

Lan Peizhi was not swayed, originally her proactive call had already indicated her stance, but after Boss Jiang’s little jest, she seemed intent on taking a step back.

"How can you say that."

Jiang Chen immediately said, "When I met her, it was through your introduction."

What does that mean?

Is this starting to randomly assign blame?

"Is it my fault?"

Even though unseen, the dense sense of danger already penetrated through the radio waves, making one’s spine chill, the surrounding temperature seemed to drop a few degrees.

Hm.

The Lan Peizhi on the other side was already squinting.

She managed her emotions from beginning to end, showing considerable restraint, but didn’t anticipate the conversation veering towards herself.

It’s true she was the introducer.

But even the strongest person can’t predict the future.

At the time of introducing the two, how could she foresee today?

"How could I blame you."

Realizing his slip of the tongue, Jiang Chen immediately tried to smooth things over, now the only consolation is that she’s far away in East Sea, otherwise he’d surely get beaten again.

"If you regret, you can go clarify things with Cao Jinse, I believe she won’t hold it against you, you can become familiar strangers."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen was about to speak when he heard a "beep," indicating the call had ended.

With a stiff smile, Jiang Chen slowly put down his phone, wishing he could smack himself twice.

Alright.

As soon as one wave ends, another begins.

This side is not resolved, and East Sea has another issue.

Why always target him like this.

While other masters of time management walk with ease and grace, he’s surrounded not just by Vajra Bodhisattvas, but also by the Mother Night...
