Chapter 493: Chapter 313: Heartache
“So you better come back soon to check on Yaoyao. That girl has practically become all skin and bones. I don’t understand what exactly happened, but I’m sure it’s because of you! You heartless guy, how could you bear to hurt such an innocent girl like Yaoyao!” Li He complained, treating Bai Ruguo almost like her own sister now.
Just skin and bones??
Although Li He tended to exaggerate, since she said so, it seemed that Bai Ruguo really wasn’t in good shape.
Thinking of the occasionally temperamental but genuinely considerate and gentle girl made him feel heartache.
“What, feeling pity now?” Li He, on the other end, giggled as if she could read his mind, “If you feel pity, then call her quickly. Little brother, sister still has things to do, so I’ll leave it at that for now.”
Li He hung up the phone. Her smile faded, revealing the troubles facing the group. Yet, with such a powerful enemy this time, she didn’t believe Liu Wentian could offer much help.
She looked somewhat worn out, returning to the meeting room with a stern and icy demeanor, confronting the somewhat downtrodden directors, frowning, “Today, I’ve gathered everyone to discuss our response strategy. Present any ideas you might have!”

Li He, though just holding the title of General Manager, was handling almost everything for the group now, practically no different from the chairman since her father wasn’t around.
A slightly overweight middle-aged director replied with a wry smile, “Director Li, what kind of response can we even have? We’re up against the Yan Family from the capital. If they decide to sink their teeth into us, and treat us like a dish, can we even escape?”
“Yeah, Director Li, why not just do as they say? Being suppressed like this continuously will only keep our group moving backwards,” another voice added.
Li He scoffed, “One billion in exchange for thirty percent of our shares, that’s outright robbery!”
A tall, thin director sighed, “Director Li, there’s no helping it, just like how Liu Wentian took ten percent of the shares from Director Liu without spending a dime, as long as one is powerful enough, even robbery seems justifiable. What can we do?”
The room fell silent upon hearing this. The Yan Family wanted thirty percent of the shares, partly from them.
They naturally didn’t want to give it up, yet, as the director pointed out, Liu Wentian had once just taken ten percent of the shares directly; now facing the Yan Family, one of the Top Seven influential families in Huaxia, who dwarfed Liu Wentian’s power myriad times, how could they resist after eyeing ‘Hua Xiangrong’ from the Tiange Group!?
Li He understood this logic, but really didn’t want to surrender, ultimately sighing helplessly. It seemed she had no choice in this matter after all.
Ding-dong-dong…
The cellphone rang, and a hint of a smile appeared on Li He’s weighed-down face. Could this little brother actually miss me so much? Just hanging up and now calling again.
Expecting it to be Liu Wentian’s call, she answered, but her expression immediately turned ice cold, “What do you want now?”
A young voice came from the other end, teasing like a cat playing with a mouse, chuckling, “Li the beautiful, don’t be mad. Nothing much, I just suddenly decided to add a condition, can’t help it. I’m ready to be called shameless, who wouldn’t for someone as charming as you. My billion, I want not just thirty percent of your Tiange shares, but also your company for one night. How about that? No problem, right? Ha ha!”
Smack!!
Li He, furious, turned ashen, and her phone smashed into pieces on the floor!
…
On the other side.
Having been hung up by Li He, Liu Wentian turned and saw Qin Keqing staring at him.
He chuckled awkwardly, “Keqing, what’s up?”
Qin Keqing sighed, “Seems like you, this little playboy, not only have dealings with Li He but also with the celebrity Bai Ruguo. She’s already lost her appetite over you. If her millions of fans found out, even if you were Wang Wuzheng, they would probably tear you to shreds.”
Liu Wentian laughed awkwardly, “Not like that, you know, I’m her bodyguard, she’s my employer, so we get along alright, heh heh.”
Toward the end, he chuckled twice, feeling somewhat guilty.
Qin Keqing scolded, “Where’s there a bodyguard as incredible as you, almost seducing your employer. Alright, I know you want to call her, so go ahead, I’m not that easily jealous.”
Not that easily jealous, my foot, I can already smell the sourness. And when I make calls, you’ve got your ear all but pressed against my phone. You’re obviously trying to clarify the nature of my relationships with them! Liu Wentian thought silently.
Nevertheless, after hearing from Li He, he also genuinely wanted to call Bai Ruguo. However, barely moments after dialing, the call was abruptly disconnected.
“Pfft!!”
Qin Keqing, seeing his defeated look, couldn’t help but laugh, “Looks like the big star doesn’t want to bother with you anymore.”
Liu Wentian wore a bitter smile. Bai Ruguo must have really started hating him now.
“Ah!! Liu Wentian, you’re awake!!” Excited exclamations came from the door, followed by a tall, sexy, stunningly beautiful blonde rushing in.
“Qianmei, how come you’re here?”
Seeing Sheng Qianmei’s sudden arrival, Liu Wentian was a bit surprised, but seeing the smiling Qin Keqing next to him, his expression immediately stiffened, somewhat confused about the situation.
