Chapter 125: Cormann: What a Coincidence

Chapter 125

President Liu never imagined he'd ride in such a luxurious car in his lifetime, especially not under these circumstances.

Sheng Yuxiao took him directly to Rongxiang Restaurant, the very place where he had first met with Zhou General to devise the plan to oust President Liu.

This was President Liu's first time setting foot in this members-only restaurant.

He couldn't bring himself to feel happy, not even a little bit.

So Zhou General's so-called "acquaintance" was actually through this kid!

"Young Master Sheng, right? Young Master Sheng, there might be a bit of a misunderstanding about today's events..." President Liu began speaking as soon as they entered.

Sheng Yuxiao ignored him and instead turned to the waiter, saying: "Milk."

The waiter, familiar with the routine, first poured milk for Li Xiaoya.

Sheng Yuxiao even bent down to lift Li Xiaoya onto the chair.

President Liu watched this scene, even more shocked than Zhou General had been initially.

At this moment, Qin Sui also unhurriedly entered Rongxiang Restaurant.

For others, getting through the door here was difficult, but for Qin Sui, it was as simple as eating or drinking water.

"Which private room is Sheng Yuxiao in?" Qin Sui asked.

"Ah?" The waiter didn't dare answer, fearing trouble might ensue.

Qin Sui slowly blinked and casually told a lie: "Did he bring a child with him?"

"Yes..."

"That's my family's child."

"What?" The waiter's expression was about to crack.

"Show me the way, or do you want my father to come and speak with your manager personally?"

The waiter didn't even have time to think and hurriedly led him inside.

Soon after, Zhou General arrived with Wei Wenjuan and Wei Wenqing.

"I've been here before, remember me? Last time I dined with Young Master Sheng." Zhou General pointed at himself, then at Wei Wenjuan, "The child inside is from this gentleman's family."

The waiter wanted to speak but hesitated.

No, wait.

Why is everyone claiming the child as their own? Whose child is it really?

If it weren't for the fact that they were all clearly wealthy individuals, he would have thought they were child traffickers.

"Alright, just lead the way," Wei Wenjuan, unable to tolerate Zhou General's roundabout approach, simply pulled out a card.

The waiter glanced at the logo printed on it, barely had time to marvel at today's surreal events before quickly leading them inside.

The door was first pushed open by Qin Sui.

President Liu found it hard to accept such a reason.

"I haven't offended Young Master Sheng, I haven't offended any of you, why? Why help him like this?"

President Liu couldn't suppress the indignation in his voice: "Just because I don't have a daughter to be Miss Li's classmate?"

"But you couldn't raise a daughter like Zhou Xiaoshu, nor could you find a wife like Aunt Liu Meng," Li Xiaoya gently reminded him.

Zhou General, upon hearing this, felt as if he had just drunk honey. Oh my, this Li Xiaoya was really something, impressive yet so pleasant with her words!

It made him feel almost embarrassed.

"Miss Li! That's prejudice!" President Liu cried out, unwilling to accept.

"Prejudice? Like how you, knowing the game started making money, couldn't wait to come find Li Xiaoya..." Sheng Yuxiao's eyes were cold.

Wei Wenjuan coldly added: "There are two new shareholders, why didn't you dare to come find me? Did you think she was young, easy to deceive, easy to bully?"

President Liu was speechless.

He looked around the room.

He glanced at Sheng Yuxiao, then at Qin Sui, then at the grim-faced Wei Wenjuan... Where was the easy to deceive? Where was the easy to bully?

President Liu could only squeeze out three words with difficulty: "I didn't..."

"If Li Xiaoya hadn't agreed to talk with you today, were you planning to forcibly take her away?" Sheng Yuxiao asked.

"I, I wouldn't dare, that would be kidnapping, wouldn't it?" President Liu's mind was in chaos, not knowing how to salvage the situation. "Look, I, I must have frightened Miss Li, I'll apologize to her, I'll, I'll buy her something to make amends..."

Meanwhile.

Ke Muning gave his subordinates some information.

"Find a Chinese person. He was once a shareholder of a company called 'Dream Maker' and recently sold all his shares."

The hacker quickly found the information Ke Muning needed.

"Sir, is this the company you're referring to? There's only one person who matches your requirements. We also found a photo of him at an event."

The hacker turned the notebook screen towards Ke Muning.

Former shareholder, Wei Liu.

"That should be him," Ke Muning raised an eyebrow. "Now, choose a suitable gun."

"Understood." The hacker was about to close the laptop.

"Wait." Ke Muning grabbed his shoulder and leaned in to look at the screen again.

On the second-level page was an updated shareholder page for this company. There were no photos of the shareholders, but their names were listed.

The name Wei Wenjuan caught Ke Muning's eye.

He couldn't distinguish Chinese faces very well, but he had a strong impression of the shape of Chinese characters.

"This is Wei Er's name," Ke Muning bent his finger, the gun callus on his fingertip rubbing over the name.

"What a coincidence? He's also a shareholder in this company?"
