Rebirth: Pampered by My Children and Husband Chapter 132

Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Your father loves you just like I do

A week later.

Wu Yanghui rushed over to find Ji Tingyang, “Cousin, you must help me this time.”

“What happened?” Ji Tingyang signaled him not to panic.

“There are a few companies I have been cooperating with for a while. We've had a good partnership, but recently they all want to terminate the contract with me. When I asked them why, they refused to tell me,” Wu Yanghui barely contained his anger.

Ji Tingyang raised his eyebrows slightly, “Oh, why is that?”

“I later found out it's a food company I've been competing with for a long time. They're willing to undercut costs to snatch away my companies,” Wu Yanghui slammed the table angrily. “This is absolutely vicious competition. It's nauseating!”

“Then, why don't we also lower our prices?” Ji Tingyang suggested.

At the mention of this, Wu Yanghui sighed even more, “You know the situation of that food company. It's just a small workshop and now, coincidentally, it's lacking in capital turnover. I really can't afford to engage in a price war with them.”

Even with the one million fund that Ji Tingyang had provided, if the price war continued, his small company would inevitably go bankrupt faster than their competitor.

Recently, Wu Yanghui had been so worried about this matter that it turned his hair white.

“Moreover, that major client you introduced to me earlier, we talked very well every time, but he always hesitates when it comes to signing the contract, and nothing gets finalized, nor does any money change hands. Whenever I ask, they say they're not confident about the background of our small company.

“This partnership was introduced by you, a president of Ji's, and besides, our families are relatives. Isn't that a strong enough background? What is there to worry about?” Wu Yanghui was desperate.

Ji Tingyang poured him a cup of water and soothed, “A multimillion-dollar deal is a big deal; it's only natural for the other party to be cautious.”

“I understand that, but although I can wait, my small company can't afford to,” Wu Yanghui sighed.

“Maybe…” Ji Tingyang's thin lips parted slightly and then closed again, “never mind.”

This hesitation piqued Wu Yanghui's curiosity, “Maybe what?”

“I was thinking that their concerns are merely about the capability and subsequent financing of your company, but if I invest in your company, Ji Group would naturally become your backing, providing funds and various resources. This should reassure them,” Ji Tingyang explained.

After thinking it over, Wu Yanghui felt his point made a lot of sense.

But the idea of giving shares of his company to Ji Tingyang made him quite hesitant.

Seeing his conflicted expression, Ji Tingyang quickly said, “I was just saying that offhand, cousin. Don't take it to heart. Maybe tomorrow they'll come around and agree to sign the contract.”

“Heh…” Wu Yanghui laughed awkwardly.

He was about to say something more when his phone received a message from the big client.

[President Wu, after several days of consideration, our president is still uneasy about the background of your company and has decided to abandon the partnership with you. We truly apologize.]

Wu Yanghui's heart skipped a beat.

In a split second, his mind made a choice between the multimillion deal and that tiny five percent share.

He hastily looked at Ji Tingyang, “Tingyang, I think what you just said makes a lot of sense. Let's sign the investment contract right away!”

“Okay.” Ji Tingyang's lips curled into a slight smile, a trace of cold cunning flickering in the depths of his eyes.

Ji Mansion.

Ji Tingyang and Ji Zeqiu were having a rare harmonious conversation in the study.

“The contract is already signed, and I've got five percent of the shares. How about you?” Ji Tingyang tossed the contract onto the table.

Ji Zeqiu counted the contracts he had acquired, “Due to limited time, I've only gradually acquired 35% of the shares, with another 10% still under negotiation. I should be able to sign the contract and get it tomorrow. By then, including your five percent, we'll have enough.”

Wu Yanghui held 45% of the shares in his company, which meant he had the majority and decision-making power.

While other shares were scattered among several smaller shareholders, even if Ji Tingyang was given 5% of the shares, Wu Yanghui would still hold the majority.

He probably never anticipated that someone would gather up these scattered shares.

Ji Tingyang nodded.

The two continued discussing in the study for a while before Ji Zeqiu left.

Ji Tingyang sat in the chair, looking at the several contracts on the desk, his thoughts drifting far away, not knowing what he was thinking about.

Suddenly.

Someone knocked on the door of the study.

Ji Tingyang looked up and saw Lin Xu smiling at him.

“Are you still working overtime?” Lin Xu stood at the doorway, looking at him.

“No, it's already over.”

Ji Tingyang got up and walked over to Lin Xu. Upon getting closer, he noticed she was holding a bowl of scallion noodles, topped with an added egg.

“It's over then; it looks like I can skip this late-night snack. I wonder if Ji Zeqiu has the habit of dieting at night,” Lin Xu mumbled to herself, intending to walk out.

“Can't we eat if we're not working overtime?” Ji Tingyang looked at her with a hint of almost imperceptible sadness in his eyes, contemplating whether to check the two documents now and work overtime.

“I'm just teasing you; of course, you can eat,” Lin Xu placed the bowl on the table and waved Ji Tingyang over.

Ji Tingyang watched her, his lips curling into a slight smile.

Lin Xu rested her cheek on her hand and muttered as she watched him eat, “I wonder what you and your brother have been hiding in the study every day, working on something, and never telling when asked.”

While eating his noodles, Ji Tingyang paused, his expression hesitating, “Mother, what do you think about our cousin's family?”

Lin Xu's expression suddenly turned stern, “Did he come to see you?!”

“No, I mean if their family encountered difficulties, wouldn't it be bad if we just stood by without helping?” He glanced sneakily at Lin Xu.

And even to kick them while they're down.

“What's wrong with that? They weren't much good to you before anyway.”

“But they are still my father's sister…”

It was precisely because of this that, over the years, no matter what they did, Ji Tingyang had always ignored them.

“Fool, your father and I love you just as much. If he knew what your aunt had done to you, he'd even come out of his grave to give them a lesson,” Lin Xu ruffled his hair.

Hearing her say this, Ji Tingyang's internal conflict over the past few days finally lifted.

His mood while eating the noodles greatly improved.

Two days later.

Unsurprisingly, Wu Yanghui arrived at the Ji Group building and started cursing loudly.

A crowd of onlookers stayed around, whispering to each other.

“Ji Tingyang, come out here!”

“Our family used to treat you well, but I never expected you all to be such ingrates, even scheming against your relative's company.”
