Crazy Wife: Mr. Lu, Fight Me if You Dare!

Chapter 141: She Doesn’t Want Him to Lose

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After a few hours, Elder Tao and Liao Changqing came to an agreement.

Liao Changqing was not willing to sell his shares to the Tao family because Phantom was the blood and sweat of the Liao family.

If he sold it, he would be too ashamed to face his ancestors.

However, he was willing to help Elder Tao.

Other than being the biggest shareholder, one could also take control of Phantom by having the board of directors elect a new chairperson.

Elder Tao already owned 35% of Phantom. If he won Liao Changqing’s vote worth 13% of the company, he could definitely take over Phantom.

Liao Changqing also said that the Phantom board of directors could vote at their board meeting next Tuesday.

The loose ends could be tied up speedily.

Elder Tao didn’t want the battle to drag on in case there were any mishaps.

Naturally, he agreed to Liao Changqing’s suggestion.

Elder Tao also promised generous rewards to the other directors.

Everyone left the meeting satisfied.

Two days went by in the blink of an eye.

Lu Zhi had announced to the public that he was putting in every possible effort to buy back Phantom’s shares. He had also bought 3% of the shares from one of the smaller major shareholders. He would never let someone take over Phantom in such a hostile manner.

Elder Tao refused to be outdone even after he obtained Liao Changqing’s support.

He was still at war with Lu Zhi.

The Tao family bought almost two-thirds of shares that were traded in the market.

The remaining one-third were held by people who refused to sell.

They were in a stalemate.

While Lu Zhi was in a terrible fix, Tao Niannian was very pleased with herself.

She purposely waited outside Jiang Yining’s classroom to catch her.

“Jiang Yining, this whole fight started because of you. You still have the cheek to come to school?”

“You’re such a shameless person. If you dare to come to school, why wouldn’t I?” Jiang Yining said sarcastically.

“B*tch! Just you wait! This is just the beginning. My grandfather’s next moves will blow your mind!” Tao Niannian cursed angrily.

Jiang Yining chuckled disdainfully and walked away.

Tao Niannian was annoyed that she got snubbed.

She stomped her feet and walked to her car.

After Jiang Yining got home, she thought about it and went to look for Lu Zhi.

She knocked on the door to the gym.

Lu Zhi was doing push-ups, wearing black sweatpants and a sleeveless top that showed off his strong muscles.

Bean-sized beads of sweat slid down slowly along his shapely torso.

He looked like he was bursting in hormones, very attractive.

Jiang Yining looked away from him and said, “Lu Zhi, are you already at wit’s end with the Tao family?”

“Who said that?” Lu Zhi said with a slight pant as he stood up and wiped the sweat off his face with a white towel.

“No one… I’m just a little worried.”

Jiang Yining hated owing people favors.

If Lu Zhi lost Phantom, she would have caused him to lose a listed company with a market value of 50 billion yuan.

How could she let that happen?

She was afraid that she would never be able to pay him back in her lifetime…

Lu Zhi’s gaze fell on her face for a long time before he said in a deep voice, “Idiot.”

Jiang Yining said unhappily, “I’m not stupid, okay? My IQ and EQare both very high.”

Lu Zhi chuckled. “Yes, you have a high IQ. 1 don’t deny that. However, in terms of business, you’re still a newbie.”

Jiang Yining pouted unhappily.

Lu Zhi did not explain further even when he saw her like this.

Instead, he said, “Don’t worry. Even if 1 lose Phantom, it’s just a drop in the bucket for me. I can afford it.”

Jiang Yining frowned.

She didn’t want him to lose.

But she was indeed not interested in business. She couldn’t help him even if she wanted to.

While she remained quiet, Lu Zhi took off his top and revealed his beautiful eight-pack abs.

Jiang Yining looked up and was about to speak when her gaze swept across his half-naked body, and her face turned red.

In the next second, she raised her hand and covered her eyes.

“Lu Zhi, you exhibitionist! Put on your clothes!”

“I need to take a shower after exercising, so naturally I’ll have to strip. If you don’t get out, I’ll take off my pants in front of you.”

Lu Zhi’s cold and handsome face flashed with playfulness.

Jiang Yining quickly got up and walked out. “Hold on. I’ll leave now!”

“Hurry up, or I’ll take off…” Lu Zhi urged her with a smile.

Jiang Yining ran out too quickly and almost tripped.

Fortunately, she grabbed the door frame.

She didn’t have time to think about it and quickly left the gym.

Bang!

The door closed.

Lu Zhi wiped away the smile on his face and walked into the bathroom unhurriedly.

Jiang Yining walked far away, but her face was still as red as a cooked shrimp.

She muttered under her breath, “Stinky Lu Zhi, bastard! Don’t you feel shameful stripping in front of a girl?”

She went back to her room and sat on her bed.

She took a few deep breaths to calm her surging emotions.

Then, she was worried again.

Old Patriarch Lu had made a pact Lu Zhi which required him to settle the conflict with the Tao family.

But now, not only did he not settle the conflict, but the Tao family had also attacked him.

If Lu Zhi lost this battle with the Tao family, he wouldn’t only lose Phantom that was worth 50 billion yuan. He would also lose Old Patriarch Lu’s trust as well as his position as the heir of the Lu family.

Jiang Yining actually didn’t care about the Lu family at all.

If Lu Zhi wanted to leave the Lu family, she would agree with both her hands and feet!

However, she did not want Lu Zhi to be chased out of the Lu family so unceremoniously. Even if he wanted to leave the Lu family, he should walk out with his head held high!

She wanted to help him, but she also recognized her lack of talent in business.

Jiang Yining pondered and finally took out a phone that she had hidden for a long time.

She pressed the power button and the screen lit up.

She tapped on the contact list and saw three names on it: Gu Zhanqing, Lin Yan, and Jiang Rou.

The only person who could help Lu Zhi was Gu Zhanqing.

If he joined forces with Lu Zhi, they could easily overthrow the entire Tao family, let alone snatch back Phantom!

Jiang Yining’s finger landed on Gu Zhanqing’s name, but there was a struggle in her eyes.

Before she left the Gu residence, she had made up her mind to never have any contact with the Gu family again.

She would never ask Gu Zhanqing for anything again!

Once she contacted Gu Zhanqing, he would ask her to return to the Gu residence and order her not to look for Lin Yan again…

She had spent so much effort to escape from that place, would she go back there again?

Jiang Yining felt like there were two little people arguing in her head.

Little Person A said, “Lu Zhi is in this difficult position because of you. Jiang Yining, aren’t you always loyal to your friends? You willingly did so much for Ye Xiaoxi, yet you are not willing to sacrifice a little for Lu Zhi?”

Little Person B retorted, “Jiang Yining, you must think carefully about this. The Gu residence was hell for you! It took you ten years to make up your mind to escape from that place. If you go back, everything will be in vain! Also, don’t you want to find Lin Yan? She’s still alive. Only you can save her…”

Jiang Yining fell into her bed with a thud.

Hugging a pillow, she tossed and turned for a long time.

Finally, she made up her mind.

She tapped lightly on Gu Zhanqing’s name. His number was immediately dialed.

In a resort on the other side of A-City, Gu Zhanqing was sitting at the dining table when he saw the caller ID flash on his phone.

His face instantly tensed up.

He picked up his phone and said in a somber voice, “Jiang Yining, you’ve finally decided to call me?”
