Strike Back, Proud Goddess!

Tang Xi looked at Xiao Yan and turned up the corners of her mouth. “This is…?”

Xiao Yan took a deep look at Tang Xi, stood up and reached out towards her. “I’m Xiao Yan of the Xiao’s Group.”

“Xiao Yan?” Tang Xi smiled and shook hands with him. “Hi, Cousin. Grandpa told me about Aunt last night. I had planned to visit Aunt this afternoon, but the job is urgent, so I came here first when I reached City A.”

Xiao Yan looked surprised. He looked at Tang Xi and said with a frown, “I felt very familiar with you last time I met you at the airport. It turns out that we are actually blood relatives.”

Tang Xi paused and remembered that she met Yan last time she went to the capital with Qiao Liang. God! How could she forget about it and pretended not to know him?!

Tang Xi hurriedly pretended to take a tumble. “Oh, yes, I met you last time I went to the capital from City A. Sorry, I’m too busy these days, so I forgot about it. Please don’t mind it, Cousin.”

Xiao Yan smiled. “Never mind.”

“Okay, let’s talk about the business.” Xiao Yao frowned.

Tang Xi looked at Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yan hurriedly introduced Xiao Yao and Xiao Sa to Tang Xi. Tang Xi greeted them and turned her eyes to Qiao Liang. “Okay, let’s get down to work.”

…

One hour later, Tang Xi sat on the chair and leafed through the acquisition proposal. “This Mr. William is very mysterious. It’s almost impossible to find out about his real identity. There are too many William’s in the world. We don’t even know whether William is his alias or not, so I don’t think we should challenge him rashly before we come to know his real identity.”

Qiao Liang took a look at her and nodded. “I agree with President Tang. Our purpose is to purchase the Qin’s Group not to bring our companies disaster.”

“Then we are just going to give up on the acquisition plan?” Xiao Yan looked at Qiao Liang and said with a frown, “Some banks suddenly canceled the cooperation that they have with us this morning and some projects we cooperate with other companies on were also stopped. I think the Qin’s Group is behind this.”

Tang Xi narrowed her eyes and looked at Xiao Yan. “This morning?”

Xiao Yan nodded, and Tang Xi immediately took a look at Assistant Wang. The latter nodded and went out to make a call. After a while, she came back and whispered to Tang Xi, “According to the information I’ve received, the Qin’s Group offered them better conditions, so they stopped the cooperation with the Xiao’s Group.”

Tang Xi slightly turned up the corners of her mouth but her eyes were cold. She looked at Xiao Yan and coldly said, “Please continue with these projects. The Empire Group will be the Xiao’s Group’s partner from today on.”

Just then, Xiao Yan’s assistant rushed in. “President, many journalists are waiting outside our company. It seems that some people spread rumors, claiming that our projects can’t continue because our capital chain broke! Please go back and have a look!”

Xiao Yan lunged to his feet and Tang Xi also stood up with a frown. She took a look at Qiao Liang and said, “President Qiao, it seems that we have to chop this guy’s claws off first before we find out about his real identity.”

Xiao Yan took a look at them and said solemnly, “I’m going back to check.”

Xiao Yan quickly left. Tang Xi looked back at the others. “In this case, let’s start to purchase the Qin’s Group. It’ll just take us a little more time.”

He Wanzhou was disappointed that they didn’t start to purchase the Qin’s Group right away, because he wanted to take this acquisition as the start of He Xing Group’s entry into the capital. Now hearing that they had decided to do it now, he smiled gladly. “You can rest assured. With the Empire Group, the Qiao’s International Group and our He Xing Group, we can beat any power in the business circle no matter how strong it is.”

Tang Xi took a look at Assistant Wang who immediately passed on her order. Tang Xi smiled. “But we need to solve the crisis of the Xiao’s Group first.”

Assistant Wang cast a questioning look at Tang Xi but soon she figured out what Tang Xi meant. She immediately stood up. “I’ll contact the Strategy Department, Investment Development Department and Finance Department right away. I believe we’ll be able to solve the crisis of the Xiao’s Group as soon as possible.”

Qiao Liang took a look at Gu Yun and the latter stood up and said with a smile, “Our Qiao’s International Group is also willing to give the Xiao’s Group a helping hand. After all, if the Xiao’s Group wins, the Qin’s Group will suffer a loss.”

Hearing this, He Wanzhou also said, “In this case, let’s join in the battle between the Xiao’s Group and the Qin’s Group. I believe we’ll win.”

Tang Xi stood up and looked around at the others with a smile. “Thank you.”

Xiao Yao also said, “Thanks.”

Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing exchanged a glance and said to them. “I also thank you very much.”

Then they finished the meeting and left the Qiao’s International Group.

Xiao Yan sitting in his car called the PR Department of the Xiao’s Group, asked them to deal with the media’s reports about their company, then called the general manager and ordered him to handle the journalists waiting at the company, he also contacted one of their business partners…

However, that person found an excuse and quickly hung up. Xiao Yan frowned. His assistant looked at him and pursed his lips. “President Xiao, shall we go to visit them in person?”

Xiao Yan rubbed between his eyebrows and shook his head. “No, since they have made up their minds not to cooperate with us, there must be someone offering them better conditions. If we come to visit them, they would force us to give them the conditions that we can’t offer. Let’s just go back to the company.”

He thought the pathway Rourou adopted was right. He didn’t think it was right to submit to the strong.

Besides, they hurt his family so badly. If he surrendered to them and released Tao Yan and her family, he would look down upon himself.

As soon as he reached the Xiao’s Group, a flock of journalists gathered up.

“President Xiao, it’s said that the Blue Sea Bay project has been suspended. Is it because the investors withdrew their investment?”

“President Xiao, it’s said that your company’s capital chain has broken. Is the Xiao’s Group going to go bankrupt?”

“President Xiao, please say something!”

“President Xiao, your company’s projects are almost all stopped. Is it because you offend someone?”

“President Xiao, can you say something about the Xiao’s Group’s current situation?”

Xiao Yan frowned. “I’d like to tell you that those projects won’t be canceled. What you have heard are all false rumors!”
