Chapter 302: Chapter 183: Just Wait and SeeThe scene suddenly quieted down. Guo Mengyao picked up the tea in front of her, took several sips, and then put it down. Her gaze was icy as she stared down Xue Jun, saying word by word, "Xue Jun, if you insist on fighting me to the end, then I can only accompany you to the end." Xue Jun smirked nonchalantly, "Mengyao, you’re very capable in cosmetics sales, but you’re somewhat lacking in company management and interpersonal relationships. It’s really not suitable for the company to let you take charge. Of course, if you insist on having a falling-out, we can dissolve the company, liquidate the assets, and split them according to our shares. I’m not afraid." Sister Li also smiled, "I’m not afraid either. If we liquidate the company’s assets, I should get a fair share. Besides, if I hold a board meeting with Xue Jun, we have the power to remove you as CEO." The two of them were clearly joining forces to pressure Guo Mengyao, or in other words, bullying her together. Chen Feng couldn’t stand to watch this. After all, he and Guo Mengyao were old classmates, and they had been intimate before. How could he stand by and watch others bully her in front of his eyes? "Both of you, don’t you think you’re going too far, colluding and plotting against Mengyao like this? Especially you." Chen Feng fixed his gaze on Xue Jun, his voice icy, "This company was built through Mengyao’s hard work. While you two shareholders have contributed, it doesn’t compare to Mengyao. In recent years, she’s worked hard, giving you dividends, making money for you. She hasn’t wronged you, has she? You two joining forces to stab her in the back, especially Xue Jun, you’re even using her good-for-nothing husband to scheme against her. Don’t you think you’ve gone too far?" Xue Jun’s face was a bit unsightly, but he didn’t deny what he did. He just sneered, "Business is like a battlefield; deception is all fair game. Her husband has always been a burden to her. I’m just making them cut it off early, isn’t that better?" Chen Feng pointed at him, "That’s what you said. Since we’re enemies now, then there’s no need to be polite. If you can do it first, then don’t blame us for retaliating harder." After saying this, Chen Feng stood up, pulled Guo Mengyao up, and strode away. Staying to bicker with them any longer was pointless. Left behind were Xue Jun and Sister Li, looking at each other with unhappy expressions. Sister Li complained slightly, "Why did you cooperate with her good-for-nothing husband? That’s really not right. We’ve known each other for so many years." Xue Jun replied angrily, "I just said it was for her own good. Her good-for-nothing husband often asks her for money, squanders it, and is a complete burden to her. Making a clean break sooner isn’t better for her? In the future, she’ll have more energy to develop our business." "Hah! You’re fooling no one. I think you have feelings for Mengyao. But she has never given you the time of day, and you’re just jealous out of love." Xue Jun said with a stern face, "Believe it or not, I’m genuinely looking out for her. And of course, to reduce the funds she can mobilize." Sister Li shook her head, "It seems you’re really scheming. You’re too cunning; I don’t dare deal with you in the future." Xue Jun grumpily said, "Aren’t you the same? We agreed to advance and retreat together, but you just sold me out." Sister Li said, "Isn’t it different? Even if I didn’t say it, Mengyao could have guessed it anyway. Besides, you’ve indeed gone too far, as Chen Feng said earlier. You should be worried about their possible revenge. I feel this Chen Feng is not simple; Mengyao wouldn’t bring him here for no reason." Xue Jun couldn’t hide his jealousy, "Isn’t he just her lover? Maybe he has some influence in their hometown, but here in Guang City, we’re the locals. He should be more worried about me dealing with him." Sister Li shook her head, "Better be cautious. I think that with you and Mengyao clashing like this, one of you has to give way. She can’t possibly stay below you. If she leaves, the company won’t be easy for you to manage, either. I suggest you cash out your shares at a premium with me and leave." Xue Jun said somewhat reluctantly, "This company is her hard work. She won’t just sit by and watch it dissolve. Maybe she’ll agree to my solution. If not, then I’ll cash out." "You do as you see fit." Having said that, Sister Li got up and left. Xue Jun sat for a while, then picked up his phone and called Guo Mengyao’s husband, Li Kewei. After stirring things up with words about Chen Feng, he heard Li Kewei’s furious breathing on the other side before he hung up the phone with satisfaction. Meanwhile, Chen Feng, pulling Guo Mengyao out of the teahouse, got into the car. Only then did Guo Mengyao gaze at him with affection and say, "Chen Feng, are you planning to step in and deal with Xue Jun for me? What’s your plan?" Chen Feng felt a bit of a headache at this. He had just been pretending to scare Xue Jun, and of course, to impress and win some favor with Guo Mengyao, since he stood up for her. But he really didn’t have any tactics against Xue Jun at the moment. He had some money but knew nothing about Xue Jun, and it was his first time in Guang City, where he was unfamiliar with everything. How to deal with Xue Jun? But since he had already put on the act, he couldn’t back down in front of Guo Mengyao. He had to put on a brave face and, with a mysterious smile, said, "Don’t worry, I have a trick up my sleeve. Just wait and see." Guo Mengyao gave a sweet smile, "Alright, I’ll wait for you to surprise me then." After saying this, she started the car and drove Chen Feng back to the hotel, but she didn’t stay herself. She promised to go home and be with her daughter tonight. Chen Feng didn’t feel too disappointed hearing this, as he had just been with Lin Yujiao that morning. Once Guo Mengyao left, Chen Feng felt a bit lost staying in the hotel room. He had boasted, so he had to go as far as possible to fulfill it. Besides, Xue Jun was indeed loathsome, and if Chen Feng didn’t teach him a lesson, he himself wouldn’t feel good. Chen Feng had some experience in plotting against others. In the past, he had paid to have Yan Jun and Cao Kun investigated in his company. It wasn’t too difficult as long as you found the right people and could pay. With this in mind, Chen Feng opened QQ on his phone and found the information broker he had previously dealt with, sending a transaction request. Having traded with him a few times before, the broker trusted him relatively. Chen Feng straightforwardly paid a two-thousand-yuan deposit, asking him to obtain as much detailed information on Xue Jun as possible, like real estate, bank deposits, family members, address, license plate numbers, etc. While Chen Feng began gathering information on Xue Jun, Xue Jun was on his way to his lover’s house. At forty-three, Xue Jun was a successful businessman with a complete family. He had two children, who were both smart and studious. His eldest daughter had just been accepted to a prestigious university last year, and his son had gotten into a top local high school, with a bright future at a prestigious university ahead. The downside was that his wife was two years older than him. She was reasonably good-looking when she was younger, but now at forty-five, she neither maintained nor dressed up her appearance, looking like an old lady. Sometimes when the two stood together, one could mistake them for mother and son.
