Chapter 2669 - 2643: Bob’s Big Deal

"Hi, Gao, hello, Yelena, you look really beautiful today."

While Gao Yang was teaching Yelena some new knowledge, he heard someone greeting him, and then he looked up and shouted in surprise.

"Hi, Bob!"

Gao Yang excitedly punched Bob in the chest, saying, "You’re here too, this guy didn’t even tell me."

"I asked him to keep it a secret to surprise you, oh brother, don’t shout so loud, people are starting to look at us."

Bob had been drifting at sea for a long time, but instead of getting a healthy tan as he wished, he looked thinner.

He lost at least two kilograms.

Gao Yang said excitedly, "You finally decided to come back?"

Bob said with a frown, "Come on, brother, don’t you know me? I’ve been wanting to come back for a long time, but my father said that until something is done, I shouldn’t just leave it unattended. Since I chose to make maritime security vessels my first career, I have to finish it before letting go."

Gao Yang laughed and said, "Looks like you’re doing well."

Bobo shrugged and said, "Let’s just say it’s okay. Haven’t you seen the financial statements? We can earn over 20 million a year actually, I’m forced to come back because of my father’s health... he wants me back eagerly."

Gao Yang remained silent for a moment, sighed, then patted Bob on the shoulder, and said softly, "Are you okay?"

"I’m okay. I’m just angry that you knew about his illness before I did, although I know he didn’t want me... to be too sad. You know, ever since my mom passed, he’s my only family, and of course, we’re each other’s only family. I’m just a bit upset he didn’t tell me sooner. He wanted to protect me, but I’ve already... I don’t need that kind of protection anymore, I’m not complaining, I just wanted to come back sooner and stay by his side."

Both Bob and Gao Yang’s emotions were a bit down, but soon Bob waved his hand, saying, "Let’s not talk about this now. How are you doing? I heard you’re retiring."

Gao Yang spread his hands and said, "Not bad, still not very used to it, but I’m starting to adapt."

For a moment, they fell into an awkward silence, both looking down. After a while, Gao Yang quietly asked, "How’s the thing you’re taking over going?"

Bob shook his head and said softly, "I’ve taken over a foundation, that’s going smoothly, but there’s a factory takeover that’s encountering some trouble. That company is a cash cow, my father invested 60 million dollars a long time ago, holding 55% of the shares, and now these shares bring in a return of 100 million to 120 million dollars each year, but now there’s a problem with the board of directors of this company, they want to kick me out by acquiring shares."

Gao Yang frowned and said, "How much are they willing to pay for the shares back?"

"600 million dollars."

"Damn it! They’ve got a death wish!"

After muttering angrily, Gao Yang looked at Bob and said, "Tell me who it is, I’ll take care of it for you."

Bob shook his head and smiled, saying, "No, I can handle these things."

Gao Yang said softly, "No, Bob, your hands need to stay clean, mine are already stained red, I don’t mind getting a little more bloody, you understand?"

Bob patted Gao Yang on the shoulder and said quietly, "I mean, this kind of thing can’t be solved with force at all, buddy. This is the arena of capital operations, since they launched the war, we have to defeat the enemy using capital operations. My father will take care of them, he’s planning to kick the opponent out of the board and fully acquire their shares to make this company 100% owned."

Gao Yang nodded and said, "Alright, this really isn’t my area of expertise, but Bob, we’re friends, we’re best friends, remember if there’s something that can’t be solved with capital operations, you need to let me know."

Bob smiled and said, "Of course, I’m not stupid. By the way, how’s Eileen?"

"She’s great, in Yemen. Why, are you still thinking about her?"

"Oh no, I was just asking casually. Actually..."

Bob looked around, then whispered beside Gao Yang, "Actually, I’ve got someone in mind."

"Oh?"

"It was just tonight, I saw a girl, oh God, I swear it was love at first sight, she’s so beautiful, my heart, I want to pursue her!"

Watching Bob hold his heart wasn’t exactly pleasant, Gao Yang elbowed Bob and said urgently, "Who is it? Where? What’s her name? Is she some socialite’s daughter? Go get her!"

Bob whispered, "I don’t know her name yet, but she probably isn’t a socialite, right? I’m not really into those very prim and proper rich girls, you know me, I prefer girls who look more wild. She does, she looks quite muscled, was wearing a very neutral suit."

Gao Yang looked Bob up and down for a long time, then whispered, "I see, so that’s your type. But since she was wearing a suit, how do you know she’s well-muscled?"

"She bumped into me, it hurt, but she’s really beautiful, I suspect she’s a bodyguard for some big shot, and that big shot is likely a woman."

Gao Yang rubbed his hands together and whispered, "Bodyguards can’t come in, the organizers have a resting area for them. My bodyguards are also there, I think we can ask around."

Bob said excitedly, "Right, right! It’s good to have you help me, I don’t even dare tell my dad about this, uh, you know. So go call your bodyguard!"

At this moment, Yelena couldn’t help but say, "The former president is about to speak, is it appropriate to do this now?"

Bob said urgently, "No, no, this is the big thing!"

Gao Yang also said urgently, "Exactly! This is the big thing. How can you miss out on a girl you’re interested in, what if you miss the chance and never see her again?"

"Exactly, that’s it."

Gao Yang started dialing on his phone, waiting for Joseph to pick up, he immediately spoke softly, "Porcupine, I have a mission for you, extremely important!"

Joseph’s voice immediately became tense and serious, speaking softly, "What’s up, Boss!"

"Is there a girl on your side, uh, what does she look like?"

Bob said urgently, "Black suit, white shirt, no tie, black flat leather shoes, brown hair in a ponytail, about five feet five inches tall, no makeup but wearing lipstick, that’s all I noticed, but I remember her voice."

Gao Yang spoke softly, "Joseph, did you hear that? First observe if there’s anyone like that, report back once you find her, we need to discuss further to decide the next step of the operation."

Joseph said softly, "Operation? Do you need to take her out?"
