Chapter 173: Only This Family

Liang Weimin sneered coldly, pointing at those guys still taking pictures, and said, “If you want compensation, have your people get out of the room quickly!

Let me tell you, this is private intrusion, and it’s something you can go to jail for!”

Sun Xiaofei snorted lightly and said, “I’m not afraid. If I go to jail, the disgraceful scenes of you and this woman will be disclosed to the public!”

Liang Weimin looked at Sun Xiaofei, who seemed prepared to go down with him, and sighed inwardly at his misfortune. To think that he had married such a crazy woman for the sake of the support from the Sun family back then.

“Do you still want compensation or not?”

Sun Xiaofei approached the bedside, looked at Liang Weimin, and suddenly reached out, flipping the quilt open.

“Ah—.”

The sound of camera shutters clicking was heard again.

“Sun Xiaofei! What are you doing?” Liang Weimin was beyond furious.

Sun Xiaofei looked at the two people on the bed trying clumsily to cover themselves with the quilt and suddenly started laughing.

She turned to those who were taking photos and yelled, “All of you, get out! Close the door behind you!”

After all the extra people had left the bedroom, the room fell silent for a while.

Sun Xiaofei looked down at Liang Weimin in the bed and said, “Did you know from the start that my dad was going to be in trouble? Or even worse, did you cause it?”

Liang Weimin said dismissively, “Am I stupid, to mess with my own father-in-law? I divorced you because our feelings really ended. I’m neither in love with nor loyal to you, so what’s the point of keeping this marriage?

We’ve already talked about it, and that’s why we broke up amicably. What’s with this sudden act of yours today?”

“When we divorced, I listened to you and kept it from my family. Now I realize you must have known what would happen to my dad. Are you saying you didn’t kick a man when he was down?”

Liang Weimin patted the bed as he spoke, “I swear on heaven and earth, how could I do something like that to him?

Besides, I didn’t have any dealings with your dad. Even if I wanted to make things worse for him, I couldn’t.”

“You’re washing your hands clean of it, but I don’t care. You must compensate me now, or I will take you down with me!”

“Sun Xiaofei, don’t overdo it. When we divorced, I gave you two-thirds of my assets out of consideration for the many years of support from the Sun family…”

“Fine then, your nighttime activity with him will hit the internet tonight!” Sun Xiaofei glanced at the bedside and turned to leave the room.

“Hey, don’t go! Let’s talk more!” Liang Weimin called out helplessly.

Being exposed himself was not a big deal, but if Yan Liusu was exposed in this way, it would truly ruin her future prospects.

He had invested a lot of himself in this woman and couldn’t let it all go to waste.

Sun Xiaofei paused, turned around, and looked at Liang Weimin, saying, “So, how do you plan to compensate me?”

“You know all about the assets I own. How about I give you everything I have so I walk away with nothing? Are you satisfied now?”

Sun Xiaofei sneered and said, “Liang Weimin, you’re still lying to me. Talking about how generous you were when we divorced by giving me two-thirds of your assets.

Are you going to tell me you didn’t transfer or hide assets? You’re still trying to fool me, but let me tell you, I won’t fall for it again.”

“So, what do you want?” Liang Weimin asked, showing impatience.

“10% of Powerful Capital’s shares!”

“Impossible!”

Liang Weimin suddenly realized something and said, “Wow, it looks like you’ve been investigating me quite thoroughly lately, huh?”

Sun Xiaofei replied coldly, “If I hadn’t investigated, I wouldn’t have known how much you’ve been hiding from me.”

“I only own a total of 18% of Powerful Capital’s shares. I can’t give you 10%, not even 1%, or it would affect my control over Powerful Capital.”

“What about the stock rights of those companies that Powerful Capital has shares in? I know that you’ve used various private equity funds in a crisscross shareholding pattern to make it appear that you don’t own much stock. Now you can definitely transfer some of that to me, right?”

Realizing that Sun Xiaofei did indeed seem to have thoroughly researched, Liang Weimin said helplessly, “This is possible. Powerful Capital has shares in 78 companies, with controlling stakes in 48 of them.

However, I only have the right to transfer shares in 10 of these companies to you personally.

Thus, you can’t be too greedy. At most, you can choose 5 companies, which would be a fair split between us as a couple.”

“I don’t want 5 companies; I only want one!”

Liang Weimin, feeling uneasy, asked, “Which one do you want?”

“Xingguang Precision!”

“No way!”

“Liang Weimin, do you have no intention of being sincere? You were the one who let me choose, and I only want this one!”

“The stock rights of this company are very important to me. I must ensure control of the shares is in my hands, or I won’t have a say in the boardroom. Instead of one, I can give you six…”

“No, I only want this one! Otherwise, we’re through!”

“Why?” Liang Weimin gritted his teeth in frustration and demanded to know.

Sun Xiaofei calmly stated, “I know that the parent company of Xingguang Precision is Dream Technology, which is currently the most profitable company in the world.

With it, the stock rights of Xingguang Precision will only become more valuable. I feel the other company shares you have are risky.”

At this point, Liang Weimin felt so angry he thought he might spit blood. Dream Technology was indeed becoming a household name.

Sun Xiaofei seemed not to notice the rage in Liang Weimin’s eyes and continued, “It doesn’t matter to me, really. My father has been incarcerated, and no one has any regards for me.

I turned all the assets you gave me into cash to compensate for my father’s mistakes. Now I have nothing. If you’re not willing to pay, I’m fine with ruining your reputation and calling it even.”

After saying this, Sun Xiaofei turned to leave yet again.

“I’ll transfer it to you!” Liang Weimin’s teeth-grinding voice came from behind, “I can’t give you all the shares of Xingguang Precision, only 4%. Plus, I’ll compensate you with shares in two additional companies.

If you don’t accept this, we’re done.”

Sun Xiaofei turned and looked at Liang Weimin, pausing for a moment before nodding, “Alright then.”

Liang Weimin added, “But I have a condition.”

“What condition?”

“These share transfers can only be completed tomorrow.”

“That’s not acceptable. If you don’t sign the stock transfer to me now, once I leave, your scandalous video will be online.”

“You…” Liang Weimin gasped in anger, “Then… the voting rights of your shares must be entrusted to me, managed by Powerful Capital, and you can just enjoy the dividends.”

“Sun Xiaofei, I’m not haggling with you. What I’m asking for are complete shares, not just some dividends. Either give it to me or don’t.”

“How did I ever marry a woman like you?”

“You married the power of my father, not me!”

“Enough, I’ll sign it over. However, you must give me decision-making power over the Xingguang Precision shares.”

“I can write you a proxy!” Sun Xiaofei said nonchalantly, causing Liang Weimin to feel a bit more at ease as he added, “Alright, but it’s late at night now, and I may not be able to notify all the shareholders of the three companies’ boards.

On top of that, Xingguang Precision is a publicly-listed company, and I hold more than 5% of the shares, which requires advance disclosure of the transfer.”

Sun Xiaofei sighed and said, “Liang Weimin, you’re really making this too complicated.”

“I’m not complicating things. I’m talking about the legal process.”

Sun Xiaofei observed Liang Weimin’s anxious behavior and said, “You should start calling the entire board of directors of the three companies now, and I don’t believe they will disagree with you transferring shares to me.

As for Xingguang Precision, sign the agreement, and notify the board secretary to start preparing the announcement immediately. The agreement will take effect after tomorrow’s announcement is done.”

“Okay, I can make the calls, but the text of the share transfer agreement…”

“Your assistant Miss Su, who’s loyally guarding your door outside, should be quite familiar with such matters, right?”

After this back-and-forth negotiation, they finally signed the share transfer agreement. Sun Xiaofei left behind all the electronic photography equipment that her people brought, and then she left.

Meanwhile, Liang Weimin was so furious that he started smashing things all over the living room.

“Weimin, don’t you find your ex-wife’s visit a bit odd?”

Liang Weimin turned around and saw Yan Liusu, neatly dressed, slowly descending the stairs, her every move exuding an indescribable charm that immediately ignited a fire within him.

“What’s so odd about it?”

“How did she know we were together? And she came just in time? My car has an anti-paparazzi system, you know. Also, how was she able to open the password-locked front gate of the villa?”

Liang Weimin waved his hand dismissively and said, “You don’t need to be suspicious. One of Sun Xiaofei’s men, known as ‘Big Head,’ used to work in electronic warfare in the army.

For him, cracking the password lock of this villa is a piece of cake.

As for how she knew we were together, since she investigated my stocks and assets so thoroughly, it wouldn’t be strange if she also followed me. Looks like I need to install an anti-paparazzi system too.”

“What about next week’s shareholders’ meeting? With these stock rights gone, will it…”

Liang Weimin picked up a document from the coffee table and said, “Don’t worry. With Sun Xiaofei’s power of attorney, I can still exercise these stock rights’ voting powers at the shareholders’ meeting as usual.”

“I just can’t believe it’s such a coincidence.”

“Stop being paranoid, let’s go to bed and rest.” Liang Weimin was getting impatient.

“No, it scared me to death just now. I need to go home and calm down.”

“Alright, I’ll take you.”

“No need, I’ll drive myself back.”
