Chapter 751: Chapter 751: Eat People Without Spitting Out Bones
Li Feng sipped from his glass delicately, the silence in the private room so profound one could even hear Dong Xing’s sweat dripping.
Falling from the clouds to the dust, it couldn’t be more apt.
The most despairing thing in the world is not the endless night, but the dawn at the end of it—hope is the most despairing thing of all.
Leaving the club earlier, Li Feng had already acquired all of Dongfang Wenzheng’s shares. Dongfang Wenzheng didn’t struggle for long; as a major investor, he wouldn’t abandon his reason for his ideals.
Upon seeing no hope of taking control of Century Group and Li Feng planning to sell the company, Dongfang Wenzheng decisively sold all his shares, since Li Feng offered him a 30% premium, an offer he couldn’t refuse.
Having acquired Dongfang Wenzheng’s shares, and never ceasing his acquisition of more stock, Li Feng ultimately controlled more than seventy percent of the shares.
At this point, Li Feng could solely decide the future of Century Group. If things went as usual, Li Feng would delist Century Group and then sell it off in parts to buyers like Zhang Chang, who had long been keen on it.
But unexpectedly, Dong Xing and his local family from Sea City intervened.
Thus, Li Feng delayed his plan to delist and sell the company, and things logically followed. Ignorant of the situation, Dong Xing and his overly arrogant group of elites started to lose their temper.
Li Feng, to prevent these elite heirs from running short on cash, deliberately made an appointment with Xiao Mingyue.
He met with Xiao Mingyue merely to inform him that someone was contesting him for the shares of Century. Xiao Mingyue, who had long had a falling out with Li Feng, wouldn’t pass up this opportunity.
The result led to the current situation.
Li Feng drank slowly from his glass, while across him, Dong Xing trembled, his inherent pride stopping him from bowing to Li Feng.
"It seems Mr. Dong needs more time."
"My terms are simple, fifteen billion for your shares in Century."
Setting down his glass, Li Feng stated his terms indifferently.
Dong Xing jerked his head up, glaring at Li Feng with bloodshot eyes.
"That’s robbery at a time of disaster."
Dong Xing stood up, slamming his hands on the table, while Li Feng slowly stood up, squinting at the hysterical Dong Xing.
"You’re right. I am robbing you."
"I will give you three days. After that, for every day you delay, I’ll reduce my purchase offer by ten billion." With that, Li Feng walked away without looking back, as Dong Xing watched his retreating figure, gritting his teeth. After Li Feng left, Dong Xing swept all the dishes and plates off the table in a rage.
"Li Feng, I will not submit to you!"
Hearing the roar coming from behind him in the private room, Li Feng took out a cigarette from his pocket and placed it in his mouth.
De Sheng Building.
The place had a nice symbolic meaning.
His phone suddenly rang. Li Feng took it out of his pocket and answered.
"Hello."
"Brother-in-law, it’s me!"
Choking on his cigarette, Li Feng realized the caller was not his ex-wife Zhang Xue’s sister, but Zhou Zhishan.
"Hmm, acting on a sudden impulse?"
"Not at all, just suddenly missed you."
After sending Zhou Zhishan back to Huacheng last time, Li Feng barely called her anymore. Now, hearing the sounds from the other side of the phone, he asked, "Where are you?"
"I’m with Liu Xuan on the high-speed train."
"How long till you arrive?"
"About ten more minutes until we reach the station. Could we meet up?" Zhou Zhishan asked cautiously.
When they first met, Li Feng was just her dorm mate’s brother-in-law. Who could have imagined that in just over half a year, he would become the chairman of Century Group, one of the top ten in Sea City.
It was practically science fiction.
Over that period, Zhou Zhishan was conflicted and had been waiting for a call from Li Feng, who had never called.
"Okay, I’ll come pick you up."
Li Feng hung up.
"What did he say? What did he say?" Liu Xuan hurriedly asked, the call having been fraught with mental struggle for both.
"He’ll come pick us up!"
"Really?"
"Yes."
Zhou Zhishan let out a breath, her heart hanging by a thread for so long, afraid they were just passersby to Li Feng—after all, at his stature, would he be short of beautiful women?
Fifteen minutes later, the high-speed train announcement stated the arrival at Sea City Station.
Zhou Zhishan and Liu Xuan quickly got off and waited on the roadside for Li Feng. They hadn’t been waiting long when a Porsche 911 pulled up beside them.
The joy was evident on their faces as the car window rolled down.
"Hey, senior sisters, what a coincidence, meeting again. Get in, where can I drop you off?" The young man inside, taking off his sunglasses, looked at Zhou Zhishan and Liu Xuan roadside.
"Liu Dong, how many times must we tell you, stop pestering us, we’re not interested."
Zhou Zhishan’s expression instantly chilled. How could it be this playboy again?
Liu Dong stepped out of the car, hanging his glasses on his shirt collar, and approached them with a faux-innocent air.
"Senior sisters, why keep people at such a distance? You’ve graduated, right? Have you thought about what you’ll do?"
"The actors from our school, frankly, can’t compare to those from other top drama academies. Over the years, we’ve hardly produced any famed actors or stars. You senior sisters know the reason. To become an actor or star, the most crucial things are resources and connections, then comes looks, figure, and acting skills."
"If you senior sisters don’t want to persist alone, let me tell you, you’d have to sleep with a hundred people just for a slim opportunity."
"If you don’t keep people at a distance and accept my kindness, my family’s film company is always open to you."
"Senior sisters, opportunities don’t come every time. You have to seize them."
The young man handed them his card, then looked at Zhou Zhishan and Liu Xuan with a smug expression, convinced he had them pegged.
Taking the card from him, Liu Dong curled his lips—he knew they would compromise; after all, everyone understood the stakes. A girl, without family support or money, dreaming of making it—what was the price?
