Chapter 490: Chapter 0490: Snatching Food from the Tiger’s Mouth

"Pfft!"

Zhou Xianyi spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood, all spraying onto Zhou Dafu’s face.

"Dad!" After steadying himself, Zhou Dafu immediately cried out in shock.

"Don’t, don’t be foolish." Zhou Xianyi painfully reminded him, then his body slumped down weakly.

"You bastard, how dare you hurt someone under broad daylight." Zhou Dafu hurriedly supported Zhou Xianyi and angrily faced Jin Gang.

"Hmph, what evidence do you have that it was I who hurt him?"

Jin Gang sneered coldly, withdrew his palm, and said suggestively, "There are so many people here who can testify. I didn’t touch your dad; who knows if maybe he just has some illness that flared up suddenly?"

"You..." Upon hearing this, Zhou Dafu instantly became furious. Although he was certain that it was Jin Gang who had struck, there truly was no evidence proving it was Jin Gang’s doing, who had merely waved his hand without so much as touching Zhou Xianyi’s body.

"Kid, this is the power of a Four-star Martial Master. If you really want to die, keep resisting."

Jack looked at Zhou Dafu with a cold smirk. At the level of a Four-star Martial Master, one can kill invisibly; even legal forensics have no means against such people, which is why officials fear martial masters.

If a martial master wishes to kill an ordinary person, they have many ways to evade legal repercussions.

"Cough, cough!" Since Zhou Xianyi took Jin Gang’s attack with his back, avoiding a fatal blow, his life wasn’t in danger, but still, he sustained severe injuries from the casual strike of a Four-star Martial Master.

"I need to take my dad to the hospital."

Seeing Zhou Xianyi’s pale and pained expression, Zhou Dafu quickly hoisted him up on his back, trying to leave.

Escaping won’t be so easy. If you don’t sign this contract, you and your dad might as well skip the hospital because you’ll both die in an ’accident’."

Qin Aotian blocked Zhou Dafu’s path, threatening him with a cold sneer.

"You ruthless people."

Zhou Dafu clenched his teeth, quickly picked up a pen, and signed a contract. Then, carrying Zhou Xianyi, he ran outside and shouted without turning back:

"You just wait. When my boss returns, he definitely won’t let you off the hook."

"Idiot!" Hearing this, Qin Aotian and Jack cursed in unison. With two Four-star Martial Masters in command, it wasn’t just that Tang Ming wouldn’t come back; even if he did, what could he possibly do?

After Zhou Dafu left, Qin Aotian coldly turned to Ma Benyue and Li Xiangui and said fiercely:

"The Zhou family has signed the contract. Now it’s your turn to decide. If you don’t want to end up like those two, suddenly coming down with a severe illness, then just sign the document obediently."

Ma Benyue and Li Xiangui looked at each other, then reluctantly picked up the pen and signed the contract. Although they were reluctant, Zhou Xianyi’s living example was before them. Facing the threat of a Four-star Martial Master, they simply had no ground to resist.

Thus, under the coercion of Qin Aotian and Jack, the Zhou family, the Ma family, and the Li family sold all their shares of the Minghuang Group for a mere dollar.

"Haha, from now on, the Minghuang Group is ours."

Qin Aotian looked at the contract in his hands and laughed satisfactorily.

"You can leave now," Jack said coldly, looking disdainfully at Li Xiangui and Ma Benyue:

"Your current plight is entirely due to following Tang Ming back then. From now on, stay in line in Songlan City, or else I won’t hesitate to deal with all of you."

"Sigh!"

Ma Benyue and Li Xiangui sighed helplessly, their faces full of dejection as they left the meeting room and, it could be said, despondently left Minghuang Group.

"So what should I do from now on?" With everyone else gone, Zhou Jian looked anxiously at Qin Aotian and Jack.

"Although you previously worked for Tang Ming, you have performed very well this time." Qin Aotian looked very satisfied with Zhou Jian, smiling as he said, "Since you are so aware of the times, I will not be utterly ruthless. You may stay and continue as the CEO of our new company, stabilize the emotions of the Minghuang Group’s staff, and ensure no disruptions occur in the group’s normal operations because of the change in ownership."

"Absolutely no problem." Zhou Jian smiled, seemingly unaffected by the change of power at Minghuang Group.

"Where are the people? The people of Minghuang Group?" Just then, a noisy commotion came from outside.

"What’s going on?" Qin Aotian looked towards the door, puzzled.

Soon after, Sun Zhuangjia walked in, looking bewildered, accompanied by Ma Zhisong and Qin Kong.

"What’s happening? Where are the people of Minghuang Group?" Looking around the conference room filled with unfamiliar faces, Sun Zhuangjia asked in confusion,

"Isn’t it said they were holding a board meeting here? Could we have entered the wrong room?"

"You aren’t in the wrong room. This is indeed the board meeting of Minghuang Group; we are now the shareholders of Minghuang Group. Do you have any business here?" Qin Aotian looked them over, recognizing that they were not from Minghuang Group but was unsure of their intentions.

"You are shareholders? Then what about the people from the Zhou Family, Ma Family, and Li Family?" Sun Zhuangjia asked, puzzled.

"They are a thing of the past. We just bought Minghuang Group’s shares from them, and from now on, Minghuang Group has nothing to do with them," Qin Aotian said with a smug look.

"You’re kidding? What about Tang Ming’s shares?" Sun Zhuangjia immediately frowned and asked.

"Tang Ming has disappeared. His shares go to the company," he said, a hint of irritation in his voice when Tang Ming’s name was mentioned.

"We are here to collect a debt!" Relieved to hear Tang Ming’s shares were still available, Sun Zhuangjia quickly produced a contract and stated,

"Tang Ming owed me money, and he offset his debt with shares of Minghuang Group."

"How many shares did he give you?" Qin Aotian’s expression changed slightly, and his tone was unfriendly. They had gone through so much trouble to acquire forty percent of Minghuang Group’s shares. If these people had more shares than them, wouldn’t they just be minor shareholders with no real power?

"Twenty percent." Sun Zhuangjia immediately handed the contract to Qin Aotian, saying proudly,

"We bought these shares for over ten million. Quite cheap, right?"

Looking at the document that Sun Zhuangjia and others had forged, Qin Aotian could not tell if it was genuine. Frowning, he handed the document to Zhou Jian, "Check if this document is real, and see if there’s anything wrong with Tang Ming’s signature."

"Let me take a look!" Zhou Jian quickly took the document and carefully examined it.

The expressions of Sun Zhuangjia and the other two tensed up. They had forged the document because they were relying on the fact that Tang Ming had disappeared and now could not deny the forgery. But if someone familiar with Tang Ming looked at it, they would definitely spot that the contract was fake, as the signature was forged.
