Chapter 2528 - 1854: Black-hearted Merchant
After some investigation by Yang Junluo and the information sent back by the chairman of the Yang Corporation, Yang Xiaoyu, the Yang Family finally confirmed that the person driving their business into an unprecedented crisis was Bai Xiaosheng!
And this man was currently in the Yang Family’s residence, enjoying fine food and wine, even chatting and laughing with them recently without showing any unusual signs.
No smugness, no rampant arrogance, the previous Bai Xiaosheng was so normal that no one could see that he had such a hand up his sleeve.
That’s what’s truly terrifying!
Yang Junluo and Yang Xiaoyun couldn’t help but reevaluate Bai Xiaosheng in their hearts.
Yang Yishan still found it a bit hard to believe.
After all, this Bai Xiaosheng was clearly a different person from the one in her previous impression, difficult to fully reconcile.
Just as the three generations of the family fell silent, a burst of urgent phone ringing broke the tension.
Yang Junluo and Yang Yishan looked towards Yang Xiaoyun.
Yang Xiaoyun took out his phone, saw the caller’s name, and couldn’t help telling his father, "It’s big brother."
The call was from Yang Xiaoyu, the chairman of the Yang Corporation.
"Answer it!" Yang Junluo urged promptly.
This call might contain important information at this time!
Under the watchful eyes of Yang Junluo and Yang Yishan, Yang Xiaoyun answered the call, putting it on speaker.
So that if there was any news, the two could know right away.
Upon answering, it was as if they were hit by a volcanic eruption, a deluge.
The other side’s rage billowed in, mixed with roaring, and came surging—
"Yang Xiaoyun, look at what you’ve done! How did you describe it to me back then, huh!"
"You said those Huaxia businessmen were soft, easy to manipulate, said using a few tactics could make them obediently pay for Yang family’s business, said they couldn’t find trouble with us!"
"Look at this! Now our new partners refuse to sign contracts with us! This is those Huaxia businessmen’s revenge!"
"You bastard, I’m telling you, if we can’t sell our oil, I’ll make you drink it all up!"
...
The stormy ranting and abuse didn’t allow any time for interruption, nor did it give Yang Xiaoyun time to refute.
It seemed the situation on Yang Xiaoyu’s end was terrible, making his mood extremely bad, leading to immeasurable agitation.
A person who was originally quite gentle was forced to break into profanities.
Yang Xiaoyun couldn’t hang up, couldn’t argue back, and could only listen.
After all, it was initially his idea.
Yang Junluo and Yang Yishan couldn’t chime in either and could only listen from the side.
Only after five minutes of scolding, did Yang Xiaoyu start coughing in anger, allowing for a pause.
Yang Xiaoyu, panting angrily on the phone, said, "The mess you made, go clean it up yourself! That Huaxia Business Group is still in the Aisha Emirate, right? Their leader, Bai Xiaosheng, is the mastermind, you go beg him, kneel if you have to, I don’t care how you do it, just get this sorted out!"
"But..."
"No buts! I’m in North America right now, are you expecting me to fly over and grovel? Do you want the Yang Corporation to lose face! It’s my fault for listening to you in the first place! And it’s also dad’s fault for having you, such a useless disaster..."
Yang Xiaoyun opened his mouth only to be cut off by Yang Xiaoyu.
In his fiery rage, Yang Xiaoyu even blamed Yang Junluo.
Yang Xiaoyun and Yang Yishan looked awkwardly at Yang Junluo, whose eyebrows were already raised.
Yang Xiaoyu finally added, "In any case, don’t tell dad about this right now..."
"I heard everything!" Yang Junluo roared angrily.
On the other end, Yang Xiaoyu’s voice came to an abrupt halt.
Then, in a shocked tone, he exclaimed, "Second brother, you’re with dad?"
And added, "You put it on speaker?!"
"Uh—" Yang Xiaoyun replied dryly.
"Hello, Uncle." Yang Yishan said timidly.
Yishan was there too? How many others were listening...
Yang Xiaoyu fell silent instantly.
"It’s all my fault, it’s all my fault! It was a mistake to have you! How dare you speak about me behind my back like this, you’ve turned against me!" Yang Junluo scolded angrily.
"Dad, I didn’t mean it like that, please let me explain..." Yang Xiaoyu hastened to say on the phone.
Too late, Yang Junluo had already started a tirade of cursing.
This time, it was Yang Xiaoyu who could only listen.
No matter how powerful a businessman is, he is still just human, with emotions, complaints, and capable of cursing, just as equally being cursed at.
"Dad, I, um, have to go see a guest now, so I won’t chat anymore." Eventually, Yang Xiaoyu couldn’t handle it anymore and needed to escape.
But before hanging up, he didn’t forget to instruct Yang Xiaoyun, "Anyway, Yang Xiaoyun, I’m leaving this matter to you!"
Then, the call ended hastily.
Yang Junluo continued to curse furiously.
"Dad, calm down, my brother already ended the call." Yang Xiaoyun promptly consoled Yang Junluo.
But those words felt awkward...
Yang Yishan also offered comfort from the side.
After much persuasion, the old man of the Yang family finally cooled down.
"Now, what should we do? That Bai Xiaosheng is here at our place." Yang Yishan cautiously reminded from the side.
Yang Junluo furrowed his brow, looked up, thought for a moment, rubbed his face, and said, "How long have we been out of the dining room."
"Quite a while." Yang Xiaoyun quickly said.
"Let’s go back!" Yang Junluo waved his hand, reminding the two, "You two, put your emotions in check; whatever trouble at home, can’t be shown in front of outsiders, to avoid being laughed at!"
Especially not by Bai Xiaosheng, he is, after all, the one who’s put the Yang family in a tight spot, he can’t be allowed to see the family as a joke.
