Chapter 1098: Wang Sheng is No Ordinary Human
by xennovelFinished breakfast.
Xu Shaochen suddenly thought of visiting Wang Sheng.
After all, this guy is no ordinary human now.
He’s money.
He’s worth a whole fifty billion.
If he suddenly dies or something, won’t those fifty billion fly away? Yet Xu Shaochen thinks Wang Lan is really carefree.
A fifty billion deal, and he doesn’t even do a video call to ensure his son’s safety.
(Wang Lan: Damn you, I’d video call if you didn’t just hang up on me.) As Xu Shaochen arrived, Wang Sheng was eating.
Xu Shaochen was stunned at the sight.
He said it casually.
Didn’t expect Long Yi really treated Wang Sheng like a dog.
Wang Sheng was grumbling, eating breakfast from a large dog bowl.
“Hey, Young Master Wang, having a good meal? How’s the taste?”
Xu Shaochen greeted.
“Xu! I’m telling you, I will remember this!”
Wang Sheng said through gritted teeth, then lowered his head to sip porridge more, which tasted quite good.
“What are you guys doing? Hurry and get Young Master Wang a proper breakfast. Is this fit for a human?”
Xu Shaochen said to Long Yi.
Wang Sheng’s porridge-drinking stopped as he looked at the bowl of porridge, feeling Xu Shaochen was calling him inhuman.
“Xu! What do you mean by this? What’s your game?”
Wang Sheng looked at Xu Shaochen warily, suspecting his sudden kindness was like a weasel wishing a chicken Happy New Year.
“I mean nothing. Your dad called me, so I need to treat you better, or I’d lose a lot.”
Xu Shaochen grinned, making Wang Sheng’s scalp tingle.
“What… what did my dad tell you?”
Wang Sheng swallowed hard, Xu Shaochen’s look making him feel in danger.
Xu Shaochen patted his face: “Wang Sheng, you’re a cash cow. You’re worth fifty billion, do you know that?”
“You should be thankful. Without me, you’d never dream your life is worth this much.”
Fifty billion!!!
Hearing the number, Wang Sheng’s eyes widened in disbelief at Xu Shaochen.
As Wang Lan’s son, he’s never seen fifty billion in his life.
“Yeah, isn’t it a surprise?”
Xu Shaochen said with a smile.
Wang Sheng’s mouth twitched—the surprise felt more like a shock.
Fifty billion!
It’s all his family’s!
But it’s about to fly into Xu Shaochen’s pocket, making his heart ache to think.
“Rest assured, before I get the money, I’ll keep you healthy. But if time passes and I still don’t have the money, you’ll be on your own.”
Xu Shaochen spoke as his smile turned chilling.
Then got up and left.
Watching Xu Shaochen’s back.
Thinking about that sinister expression earlier.
Wang Sheng shivered, previously pained by the fifty billion about to leave.
Now he’s afraid, scared Xu Shaochen won’t get the fifty billion.
After all, if Xu Shaochen doesn’t get the money, he’s in danger.
On the way to Tianyu Game Company.
Xu Shaochen received a call from an unknown number.
“Hello, who is this?”
“Good morning, Mr. Xu, it’s me, Wang Kun. Just calling to report I’m safe.”
Hearing Wang Kun’s voice, Xu Shaochen perked up: “How’s it feel being back home?”
“Not great! Still being suspected, got to go through observation. Having been caught so long, I must prove I didn’t spill a word.”
Wang Kun sounded helpless. He had to work hard to find a chance to call Xu Shaochen.
“In two days there’s an opportunity. I’ve got Wang Sheng. I asked Wang Lan for fifty billion, gave him two days to raise the money.”
Xu Shaochen said, crossing his legs and tapping his knee.
“You mean to have me trade and bring Wang Sheng back?”
Wang Kun quickly understood Xu Shaochen.
“Right. Once you bring Wang Sheng back, you’ll regain your father’s trust.”
“You volunteering for this task fits because it shows you want to regain trust.”
Xu Shaochen found it ironic. A son must schematically earn his father’s trust.
“I’ll try when the time comes.”
Wang Kun spoke with uncertainty, unsure if Wang Lan would agree.
“Let’s stop here. Someone might be coming. I’ll contact you when I can.”
Wang Kun quickly finished and hung up.
“Beep~beep~beep~”
Hearing the dial tone, Xu Shaochen worried if Wang Kun was discovered.
“Boss, we’re here.”
Long Yi’s voice came from ahead.
Long Er had already jumped out to open the door.
Xu Shaochen adjusted his collar and got out of the car.
“Boss, the RV will be ready today afternoon. Please check if you’re satisfied when it arrives.”
Long Er closed the door, speaking to Xu Shaochen.
Xu Shaochen nodded, then headed towards the Tianyu Building.
“Morning, boss.”
Security at the entrance greeted him.
………
In an unknown villa in San Francisco, America.
One room had been turned into a large conference room.
It was filled with people, each wearing masks, black suits, shoes and ties.
They wore voice changers to keep their identities hidden during speeches.
“Here’s the situation. I can raise ten billion myself and borrow another ten billion. I want to use the public funds for the remaining thirty billion and will repay it within two years.”
Seated at the head of the table, Wang Lan said, looking around, speaking through a voice changer.
Having explained Wang Sheng’s situation, he sought permission to use public funds by vote, needing a majority.
“I oppose. Wang Sheng’s mistake is his responsibility, not the organization’s.”
“I oppose as well. Three billion isn’t insignificant. It’s personal business, not our collective burden.”
“I agree…”
“I oppose…”
After voting, two-thirds opposed while one-third either agreed or abstained.
Seeing this, Wang Lan remained silent for a long time before saying:
“Meeting adjourned.”
