Chapter 497: Anger

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

According to Fu Sheng’s thoughts, with the Le family’s ability, if they wanted to take over the land in the north of the city and develop it later, they would have to empty half of the Le Corporation’s assets. This project was still very difficult for the Le family.

Therefore, Fu Sheng was wondering if the Fu family and the Le family could work together to take down the project. That way, the risks and benefits would be split equally. In the end, he met with Le Chang and was rejected as soon as he started talking.

Fu Sheng was annoyed, so he wanted to find a way to contact Dai Chun and intercept the Le family.

He had interacted with Dai Chun many times. Although Dai Chun had said to the public that he valued the Le family’s life-saving grace, that was more than ten years ago. He hadn’t interacted much with the Le family in recent years. He said that he wanted to repay the kindness, but he was afraid that he wanted to gain a good reputation. In the end, he still prioritized his interests. Therefore, if he could grab Dai Chun’s weakness, he might be able to snatch the project.

With this plan in mind, Fu Sheng wanted to find an opportunity to get in touch with Dai Chun again at today’s banquet. However, he didn’t expect that his assistant would receive news that Dai Chun had gone out to sea with a group of young people on a cruise last night. He wouldn’t attend tonight’s banquet at all. His original plan fell through.

This was also why Fu Sheng had an unhappy expression when he was on the phone. Then, he instructed his assistant to quickly investigate who had made the first move and abducted Dai Chun to the sea.

As the brother-in-law of the director of the Land and Resources Bureau, although Dai Chun enjoyed a lot of power dividends, he was also very clear that he couldn’t affect his brother-in-law’s official position. Therefore, no matter how rich he was in secret, he wouldn’t openly buy high-profile luxury goods such as cruise ships and mansions. Just like when he said that he wanted to cooperate with the Le family, he would only hide in the dark. His name wouldn’t appear on any written documents.

Therefore, when Dai Chun went out to sea to play, he wouldn’t have taken the initiative to go out to play. Someone must have invited him out to play. Fortunately, Dai Chun’s whereabouts weren’t hidden, so the secretary quickly found out about it.

Although Dai Chun was invited by a rich second generation, the cruise they were on was Big Brother Le’s, so the Le family must be behind it.

After Fu Sheng found out, he immediately thought of many things. The Le family must have deliberately sent Dai Chun away to prevent others from coming into contact with Dai Chun and afraid that someone would steal the project.

He guessed that the Le family was acting as if they were facing a great enemy and that their security was tight. Did this mean that the cooperation between the Le family and Dai Chun wasn’t as secure as they had imagined?

Therefore, when he heard Le Wan mention Dai Chun, he deliberately stopped to chat with the two of them, hoping to get some information from them. However, he didn’t expect that Le Wan would stab him in the heart the moment she spoke.

Fu Sheng suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at Le Wan as if he was looking at an ignorant child. He sighed and said,

“It’s not that easy to do business. Although Dai Chun is now inclined to cooperate with the Le family, if someone else offered a higher price, he might go back on his word and work with someone else. Therefore, before the contract is finalized, he can’t relax at all.”

“It can’t be. From Uncle Dai’s tone that day, he doesn’t seem like someone who would go back on his word.”

Le Wan looked at him suspiciously.

“I heard from Dad that Uncle’s company also wants this project, so you’re not trying to fool me, are you?

“How could that be?” Fu Sheng would never admit this. He said regretfully, “Although I really want this project, our company is not strong enough to take it down, so I don’t even have the chance to go to the gambling table. It’s useless to fool you. I’m just curious about the progress of this project.”

Le Wan waved her hand and said nonchalantly,

“Where else can we go? You mentioned that it’s such a big project. I heard from my father that he’s trying to persuade the other shareholders and higher-ups of the company. I’m afraid it’ll take a lot of time.”

Fu Sheng nodded.

“After all, it’s such a large investment. We have to be careful.”

Le Wan’s eyes darted around. She seemed to have thought of something and suddenly turned around to run away in small steps.

“No, I have to urge my father to settle the project as soon as possible.”

Little Brother Le was polite and greeted Fu Sheng before chasing after Le Wan.

Even after walking far away, he could still hear his unhappy voice asking Le Wan,

“Even if it’s related to your dowry, you don’t need to be so anxious, right?” Le Wan turned around and patted him.

“What do you know? Since it was a good thing, it had to be settled as soon as possible. Otherwise, the longer it was delayed, the worse it would be.”

The two of them walked into the banquet hall and heaved a sigh of relief when they were free from the prying eyes behind them.

Little Brother Le was a little worried.

“Sis, do you think he’ll fall for it?”
