Chapter 1523: You’re Playing with Him/ Unforgivable
Chapter 1821: You’re Playing with Him
However, time can’t be reverted. If time could be reverted, Goode wouldn’t have died, and Caique wouldn’t be the Family Master. It was just wishful thinking. It could never come true.
The youth in front of Caique had a calm expression. It was hard to relate the ruthless man who killed Goode and destroyed the Lancer Family with this youth.
The only thing Caique knew about the ruthless man was that he was from China. He never expected that man would be sitting in front of him. Caique had even recklessly acquiesced to Chen Zhiye’s request, and even wanted to use twenty million yuan to buy the man’s hotel!
According to rumor, Goode’s tragic death had occurred due to him lusting for Yang Ming’s fiance. And now, Chen Zhiye’s son Chen Xiaolong was making a move on Yang Ming’s woman…
When he thought until here, Caique wanted to immediately cut all ties with Chen Zhiye and shout loudly, “I don’t know this guy!” However, it would only work if Yang Ming believed it.
Caique felt that him helping Chen Zhiye was equivalent to Thomas of the Lancer Family helping Goode. In the end, him, Chen Zhiye and Chen Xiaolong would be done for.
Caique’s beautiful life from ten minutes ago had suddenly turned into a dark one. He stared at Yang Ming and wanted to weep, but he couldn’t shed a tear, “Mr. Yang… I… I’m the one in the wrong…”
Caique stuttered for a long time, and couldn’t find the words to express his current thoughts. He didn’t know what he had to say for Yang Ming to forgive him.
“You’re in the wrong?” Yang Ming smiled plainly and looked at Caique. Yang Ming already knew that Caique had confirmed his identity over the phone, so he did not have to hide anything anymore, “Seems like your Douglas Family is seeking death? I returned here from Ello Town, and you followed me all the way here. Are you trying to show that you’re the new Family Master, and that you’re very overbearing?”
“This… It’s not like that, Mr. Yang. I was too muddled last time, and was tricked by Chen Zhiye. Actually, this matter has nothing to do with me…” Caique quickly cut his ties off with Chen Zhiye.
“Boss, what are you saying? What happened to you?” Chen Zhiye didn’t know about the details, and why Caique was acting so strange. Why did he suddenly say that?
“Chen Zhiye, do you still not understand? Your boss has already abandoned you,” Yang Ming said plainly while looking at Chen Zhiye.
“Yang Ming, don’t spout nonsense! Don’t try to sabotage my relationship with my boss!” Chen Zhiye still hadn’t understood Yang Ming’s meaning. He laughed coldly and said, “I’ve been following my boss for so many years. You can’t decide our relationship!”
“Is that so… Alright, if that’s so, I won’t bother telling you anything else,” Yang Ming looked at Chen Zhiye with pity.
Since Yang Ming didn’t say anything, Caique didn’t dare to open his mouth and sat there silently. He lowered his head with cold sweat dripping down his forehead. Caique regretted believing in Chen Zhiye’s words, and involving himself in this matter.
Why did I come here to show off when I could have just been a Family Master in Ello Town? In the end, I didn’t show anything off, and my life is already in someone else’s grasp! Caique didn’t doubt that Yang Ming could kill him at any minute. He was already above the law. It was just like that time no one stood out for the Lancer Family when they were annihilated in Europe.
After Goode’s death, no one from the Douglas Family dared to voice out any complaints. Not only did they not dare to speak out, but they also rejoiced that only Goode had died as it meant that they were stronger than the Lancer Family since they did not get annihilated completely.
Caique knew that even if he was killed on the spot by Yang Ming, the Douglas Family would curry Yang Ming’s favor and praise his actions. No one would take revenge for a bane that got killed.
No one was stupid. Only a fool would do such death-seeking acts.
Because of this, Caique could only think of how to survive and appease Yang Ming’s rage. As for Chen Zhiye’s life, he didn’t care anymore. It’s this guy’s fault! If it wasn’t because of him, how could I come to Song Jiang to build some hotel?
“Alright, Caique. Relax a little,” Yang Ming shrugged. “In this place, I’m still a very reasonable person. Of course, that’s as long as you do not cross my line.”
“Yes, yes…” Caique let out a sigh of relief after hearing Yang Ming’s words. However, he could not relax completely as he didn’t know if Yang Ming was telling the truth.
“Caique, should we talk about the purchasing matter?” Yang Ming said as he tapped on the asset valuation report on the table.
“Not… Not purchasing anymore, not purchasing anymore…” Caique quickly shook his head. How can I dare to purchase Yang Ming’s hotel? I still don’t want my life to end yet.
“Caique, pay attention. I’m just talking about purchasing. It’s not about you purchasing from me, but me purchasing from you!” Yang Ming said calmly, “Caique, what do you think of twenty million yuan?”
“Ah, very reasonable, very reasonable! Not bad, not bad!” Caique wouldn’t have a heartache just for some hotels. If he were to offend Yang Ming, he and his family could possibly be wiped off the earth. There was no point in keeping the hotels located in China.
Besides, Caique had made an oath in his heart that he would never come to China again. While he couldn’t offend Yang Ming, he could hide away from him. He wouldn’t dare to come here even if he was beaten to death.
Because of this, Caique accepted Yang Ming’s proposal to acquire all the Douglas Vast Hotels in China. As a matter of fact, the price of twenty million felt like nothing at all.
Even if the family knew after this that he gave the hotels to Yang Ming, no one would dare to criticize him. If you have the capability, go take it back! Do you dare to? Caique was not afraid of their criticism.
“Really?” Yang Ming asked.
Caique was shocked. What does Yang Ming’s “really” mean? Does he think that the price is inappropriate? Is it too high? Oh, right. Chen Zhiye had offered the price of twenty million yuan to Yang Ming last time. It would be shameful for Yang Ming to spend the same twenty million yuan to buy my hotel! That must be it!
As he thought until here, Caique said carefully, “Twenty million is too much. We have no use for it. Just two million yuan is enough!”
Caique was afraid that Yang Ming would be displeased, so he immediately lowered the price by tenfold. He didn’t dare to give the hotel to Yang Ming for free, as he wasn’t sure if Yang Ming would accept it. Him decreasing the price to two million was practically giving it away for free.
Chen Zhiye was very confused as he was listening by the side. He didn’t know about the Douglas Family’s secret. Although he knew that Caique had inherited the position as the Family Master because the first-in-line successor was killed by a ruthless man, he could never relate that fierce man with Yang Ming. Because of that, he couldn’t understand what Yang Ming and Caique were talking about.
“Yang Ming, what nonsense are you talking about with my boss? What Douglas Vast Hotel acquisition? Are you sick?” Chen Zhiye asked in a displeased manner. He was still unclear of the situation, and still thought that his side was dominant.
“Chen, don’t interrupt. We’re discussing selling the management rights of all the Douglas Vast Hotels in China to Mr. Yang for the price of two million!” Caique stared at Chen Zhiye with displeasure. He thought, Just die by yourself later if you want to die. Don’t drag me down with you. After I hand the rights of management over to Yang Ming, just die however you want to. I have to go home quickly. I won’t bother with you anymore.
“Ah?” Chen Zhiye was stunned after hearing Caique’s words.
Sell all the Douglas Vast Hotels in China to Yang Ming for two million? Is this two million gold or diamonds? Is Caique okay? How is this possible? This is impossible!
However, he saw how serious Caique’s face was. He doesn’t look like he’s joking. What’s going on? All of a sudden, Chen Zhiye was confused and didn’t know what Caique wanted to do.
However, very quickly, Chen Zhiye thought that he had figured it out. He slapped his head and shouted in surprise, “Ha, I get it, boss. You’re playing with Yang Ming! You’re lying about selling the hotel to him for only two million yuan! Haha, I get it! How hilarious. This idiot Yang Ming actually believed it. He must really lack brain cells! Haha…”
Chapter 1822: Unforgivable
Chen Zhiye felt like his guess was the truth the more he talked, and his laughter became happier and happier. “Haha, Yang Ming. Why do you think that two million yuan can buy a hotel? You must be very silly. And yet, you still fell for it. You’re even pretending to discuss here. Let me tell you, my boss was playing with you!”
Chen Zhiye was dancing with excitement at the side while criticizing Yang Ming. This time, not only Yang Ming, but even Caique was looking at Chen Zhiye like he was a fool.
Guo Jianchao didn’t know how the tables had suddenly turned. Yang Ming had just spoken a few words and Caique had called to confirm it. But it was as if Caique had transformed into a different person afterward!
Guo Jianchao saw fear in Caique eyes, a strong sense of fear. It was just like the time he was chasing Sun Jie. It was the same kind of fear which arose from despair when he was being beaten up by Bao Sanli! In fact, Caique’s fear was even stronger.
Because of this, Guo Jianchao knew that this deal would be sealed. The deal didn’t mean selling the Song Jiang International Hotel to Caique, but Caique selling the Douglas Vast Hotel to Yang Ming.
However, Chen Zhiye had overestimated himself and thought that he had a full grasp of everything. He was laughing lunatically like an idiot, which made Guo Jianchao despise him.
“Chen, have you laughed enough?” Caique coldly asked Chen Zhiye, “If you have finished laughing, please remain silent! If you haven’t, go outside and laugh. Don’t interrupt my discussion with Mr. Yang.”
“Haha, boss. Why are you still pretending in front of me? Haha, I have already guessed it all!” Chen Zhiye still had a “know-it-all” look. “Boss, stop playing around with this kid. Stop dragging things out. Since he wants to die, just let him be.”
“You’re the one that wants to die!” Caique was angered by Chen Zhiye. How can this kid be so ignorant? Can’t he tell that I’m not capable of offending Yang Ming? And yet, he is still spouting such nonsense. He must not know what death is.
“Ah?” Chen Zhiye never expected Caique to be in such a deep rage.
“Guo Jianchao, throw this guy into the washroom first. Lock him up together with that kid who farted just now. Don’t let him delay our matters here. It’s irritating me,” Yang Ming pointed at Chen Zhiye and ordered Guo Jianchao.
“Yes, Brother Yang!” After receiving Yang Ming’s orders, Guo Jianchao lifted Chen Zhiye by the neck. He then walked towards the staff preparation room nearby the conference room.
Guo Jianchao naturally understood what Yang Ming meant when he said to lock him in the washroom together with the guy who just “farted”. He wanted to lock Chen Zhiye together with his son.
The so-called “washroom” was just said to criticize both Chen Zhiye and Chen Xiaolong.
“You… What do you want to do?” Chen Zhiye was surprised. He wanted to escape from Guo Jianchao’s grasp, but it was too late. His body was lifted up.
“Silence. If you keep on making noise, I won’t mind making you quiet for a while.” Guo Jianchao stared at Chen Zhiye. The “silence” he mentioned naturally meant knocking Chen Zhiye unconscious.
Chen Zhiye shivered. He didn’t understand why things had turned out like this. Was Caique speaking the truth? Does he really want to sell the hotel to Yang Ming? Did he get possessed or what? How did it turn out like this?
From Caique’s “You’re the one that wants to die”, Chen Zhiye could make out that something was unusual. Caique was really angry. He wasn’t faking it.
When he saw how Caique did not say anything when he was lifted up by Guo Jianchao, he understood Caique’s thoughts. Caique did not want to care about him.
What went wrong? Before this, Caique was still supporting me firmly. How did it suddenly turn out like this? Something changed suddenly, and he started to yield to Yang Ming?
Even if Chen Zhiye thought hard about it, he could never think of the subtle relationship Caique had with Yang Ming. He could not have expected that Yang Ming was the one to destroy the Lancer Family, and cause the Douglas Family to be in such turmoil.
“Bang!”
Guo Jianchao kicked open the staff preparation room’s door, and threw Chen Zhiye inside.
Chen Xiaolong had his ears high up and was listening to the commotion outside. He was also curious as to why his father and Caique had started arguing with each other because of Yang Ming.
Just as he was pondering, a powerful force came from the door. It knocked Chen Xiaolong away and made him fall on the floor. The vibration caused him to see stars, and made him dizzy. Before he could react, an unidentified object as big as a sandbag fell on him.
“Ouch…” Chen Xiaolong’s bones were about to be broken apart. After howling, he shockingly realized that the unidentified object thrown on his body was actually his father, Chen Zhiye!
“Dad! What happened to you?” Chen Xiaolong asked, terrified.
“Stop spouting nonsense!” Guo Jianchao had already heard of how useless Chen Xiaolong was. He even dared to make a move on Yang Ming’s woman. Guo Jianchao kicked Chen Xiaolong in the crotch. Chen Xiaolong was in so much pain that his eyeballs were about to burst out. After shouting tragically, he fainted.
This punishment is still considered light! The punishment I received when I made a move on Sun Jie was even more frightening! Whenever Guo Jianchao remembered that scene, he would tremble in fear.
“What do you want to do!” Chen Zhiye was shocked, and immediately stood in front of Chen Xiaolong’s body to shield him. His eyes were filled with a frantic gaze, “How dare you hit my son!? I won’t let you go!”
Chen Zhiye leaped towards Guo Jianchao as soon as he finished speaking.
“Go away!” Guo Jianchao slapped Chen Zhiye’s head and said coldly, “Stay here obediently. Wait for Brother Yang to take care of you later. Stop making more trouble!”
After he finished speaking, Guo Jianchao did not bother with them anymore. He turned around and exited the staff preparation room after closing the room door with a “bang”.
“Jianchao, be more careful. This hotel is going to be ours very soon. Don’t use so much force. We still have to repair it if it’s broken,” Yang Ming said as he looked at Guo Jianchao.
“Ah? Hehe…” Guo Jianchao was a little embarrassed, and scratched his head.
However, Caique was frightened. He thought that Yang Ming was purposely messing with him. He quickly said, “I’ll repair it, I’ll repair it! Mr. Yang, don’t worry. Before handing the hotel over to you, I’ll let some people check it. If there’s nothing wrong, I’ll hand it over to you.”
“Oh, sorry for troubling you then.” Yang Ming did not make things difficult for Caique when he saw how understanding he was.
“It’s not troublesome, it’s not troublesome. What troubles are there? This is what I’m supposed to do,” said Caique carefully.
“For those two million, give me your account number. I’ll find someone to transfer it to you after I go back,” said Yang Ming. “There’s no need to sign a contract. After you have gone through the procedures, just send it to the Song Jiang International Hotel and pass it to President Guo.”
“Yes, yes!” Caique nodded and agreed.
“En, you won’t change your mind, right?” Yang Ming asked with a smile.
“Ah? I won’t. Of course I won’t!” Caique quickly waved his hand to deny it. How could he dare to change his mind? He couldn’t wait to quickly hand the hotel over to Yang Ming to appease his rage.
As for the contract, Caique didn’t really care if they signed it or not. Does Yang Ming need any contract? Even if he wanted the whole world’s Douglas Vast Hotels, I must give it to him!
When comparing the whole family being annihilated with money, Caique knew which was more important.
Yang Ming nodded. He had just casually asked. Yang Ming knew Caique was not an idiot. He was not of Caique going back on his words.
“Let today’s matters end here. I don’t want to see Chen Zhiye and his son anymore.” Yang Ming stood up, “You’ll settle this matter, right?”
“Yes, Mr. Yang. Please rest assured!” Caique assured Yang Ming.
Yang Ming did not say anything else. Instead, he waved his hand at Guo Jianchao to signal that the two of them could leave.
After Guo Jianchao stood up and followed Yang Ming out of the conference room, Caique let out a sigh of relief. Finally, Yang Ming has left! Everything has ended well!
Hmph, this Chen Zhiye. Even if Yang Ming had not said anything, Caique did not plan on letting Chen Zhiye go. This guy almost caused my whole family’s downfall. He is unforgivable!
As he thought until here, Caique picked up his phone and summoned his bodyguard…
