"Not long after I was kicked out of the Su Family, they dragged me back again, saying they wanted me to be a maid to repay for the items I broke on the day I left the Su Family..."
Xu Mengjie took a deep breath and slowly recounted.
"I knew the Su Family’s financial chain was broken, but I never thought that selling me to Splendid Culture was orchestrated by them... I used to think they were mere pimps... President Zhou told me the truth, then I understood their plan!"
"Earlier, the Su Family favored a new project and to board the ship for that project, they found a middleman and invested almost all their money into it. But not long after, the policy changed, they didn’t get any benefit, and had to keep investing money into it, otherwise, the initial funds would be wasted..."
Zhou Jue nodded, they were trapped.
The Su Family wanted to take a share in the new intelligent project, but didn’t consider their own strength. Millions, even if the profit is small in other projects, there is still meat to eat after breaking even.
The problem is, it’s this project, President Yue recently invested over ten billion into it just barely managed to get through the gate with the government side.
The pie is good, but the Su Family can’t touch it.
Daring to bet all the liquid funds, isn’t it just waiting to die?
Xu Mengjie continued: "The funds were trapped, and the middleman kept evading, saying that investments always have pros and cons, and you can’t expect money to incubate just after investing. The Su Family’s unreasonable pestering really annoyed people until the middleman suggested that if the Su Family could do them a favor, then they could truly get on board."
Zhou Jue frowned: "Is this matter kidnapping Young Master Yan? The middleman you mentioned has a grudge against President Yue?"
Xu Mengjie shook her head: "No grudge, it’s just... President Yue’s influence in Hua Country is significant, and the overseas Jiang Xiaoxing, President Jiang, has taken on many new projects, several of which conflict with President Yue’s. Both parties have plenty of money; the competition will likely increase market pressure. Furthermore, the overseas interests represented by President Jiang seem to have many people interested and wanting to join in to take a share of the pie. If President Yue intervenes in them..."
Xu Mengjie recalled Su Haoyang’s original words: "Not afraid of President Jiang and President Yue fighting, just afraid that they will cooperate and divide the profits; if those two carve up the pie, others won’t even get crumbs."
Greed always blinds people.
Zhou Jue roughly understood.
"So, the Su Family wants to kidnap President Yue’s son as a pledge to board President Jiang’s ship?"
Xu Mengjie replied softly: "I don’t know the specifics, just that they have started preparations."
After listening, Zhou Jue was silent for a few seconds, then the corner of his mouth slightly curved, suppressing a snicker in his throat.
"Kidnap Jun Yan?" He found it hilarious, "Su Family... hahaha."
Xu Mengjie was a little dazed by his reaction: "President Zhou, you... you don’t believe me? I can guarantee that what I heard is all true!"
"I believe." The more Zhou Jue thought, the funnier he found it. He leaned back easily in his chair, arms crossed on his lap, "I believe everything you heard is true."
Just didn’t expect the Su Family members to be so foolish.
President Yue being related to President Jiang is unknown to others, but Zhou Jue knows clearly.
Xingyue’s former boss has the surname Jiang, President Yue is Jiang Yu’s daughter.
After going overseas, it didn’t take long for Jiang Xiaoxing to return.
Is it hard to guess?
To stand with Jiang Xiaoxing, you need to kidnap President Yue’s son? If this reached Young Master Yan’s ears, he’d surely be dumbfounded: "Ah? My mom sent people to kidnap me?"
