The Crippled Boss Loves Me Chapter 166 - Do You Dare to Bet

Chapter 166: Do You Dare to Bet

“Of course I’m prepared!” Cheng Songyang raised his head proudly and sneered, “Let’s see if you dare to bet with me, CEO Ji.”

“I advise you to think twice before doing anything, Mr. Cheng” Ji Yan pointed at the phone on the table. “You have been busy with the shareholders’ meeting today and haven’t had the time to look at the news on your phone, right? Why don’t you take a look at your phone first before making a decision?”

With Cheng Songyang’s ability, he still wanted to kick Ji Yan out of the Board of Directors? Ji Yan was afraid that Cheng Songyang wouldn’t be able to get what he wanted.

Cheng Songyang’s heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition welled up in him. He quickly picked up his phone and saw countless missed calls and messages on the screen. His vision went blurry with what he saw on his phone.

His mother had been arrested, and the foreign trade and investment company had been temporarily shut down. Even the charitable fund under his mother’s name was going to be investigated! Bad news came one after another. Cheng Songyang’s head buzzed non-stop, and he could see stars in front of his eyes.

The east side of the city was the foundation of the Zhuang Corporation. He had already reached a preliminary agreement with the Second Young Master of the Zhuang Corporation, Zhuang Li. In order to further improve their cooperation, he had to show his sincerity. Otherwise, why would others share their benefits with just empty words coming from him? Originally, with Ji Mei operating outside, in addition to the foreign trade company and the ambiguous income of the fund, it was enough to provide Cheng Songyang with the financial support he needed. This would have allowed him to seize the initiative in the development of the old city district and make a lot of money.

But now that Ji Mei’s side was in trouble and the potential financial support chain was broken, how could he share the profits with Zhuang Li?

Was he going to give up just like that? Cheng Songyang’s heart was filled with dissatisfaction. He gripped his phone tightly. His knuckles had turned white because he had used too much force, and his eyes were gradually filled with madness.

Shen Hanxing, all of this was Shen Hanxing’s fault! This woman who came out of the slums kept ruining his great plans time and time again! Why, why would such a person stand on Ji Yan’s side?!

“Mr. Cheng, if you want to change your mind, then return to your seat and sit properly.” Ji Yan looked at Cheng Songyang’s current sorry state with interest. Then, he said indifferently, “For the sake of our familial relations, I can pretend that I didn’t hear what you said before.” These words sounded like he said them with good intentions, but to Cheng Songyang, it was tantamount to humiliation!

Did he really want to give up the power that was within his grasp and become a dog that could be ordered around by Ji Yan? No, he was not willing to do that!! He was clearly so close to becoming the head of the Ji Corporation. As long as he took one more step forward, the person standing in that position would be him. Having already experienced the feeling of being the person in charge of the Ji Corporation, how could he give up so easily?!

Cheng Songyang quickly calculated in his head. It was not that he had no chance of winning. As long as he could take the project on the east side of the city, the returns would definitely be astonis.h.i.+ng. As long as he could bring sufficient benefits to the Ji Corporation, these people in front of him would no longer follow Ji Yan and would choose to support him.

As for his mother’s side, although he no longer had his mother’s financial support, he still had… Thinking up till this point, Cheng Songyang’s eyes flashed with the viciousness of a desperate gamble. He said, “No, I will never go back on my words. I only want to see if you have the guts to compete with me, CEO Ji!”

“Since you insist, Mr. Cheng…” Ji Yan looked at him coldly and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. “Then I will naturally accompany you to the end.”

At this point, the two of them had completely taken off their hypocritical facade, explicitly showing their conflict on the surface. Both sides parted on bad terms. Cheng Songyang took away his supporters, while Ji Yan took the remaining people back to the meeting.

Zhou Xun was a little hesitant. “CEO Ji, you mean that you are more optimistic about the development of the west side of the city?”

“That’s right.” Ji Yan’s eyes were heavy as he looked at the city map spread out on the table. He said in a deep voice, “Although the east side of the city is convenient for transportation and the investment would break even faster, the problem of the west side of the city can not be ignored. The development of the city can not be focused on just one side. The government would not let such a huge gap between the rich and the poor be seen in the city.”

“But…” Zhou Xun was a little hesitant. “The higher-ups want to look for an investment, so they can not just blindly follow their own wishes.”

“This is the time to gamble with the capital.” Ji Yan nodded. There was a strong glint of confidence in his eyes. He continued, “What we need to do is to make a better plan for the west side of the city and influence the decisions of the higher-ups.” Even if the government initially wanted to choose the east side of the city, they would change their plans from the east side of the city to the west side after reading their tender doc.u.ments!

To influence the entire situation with just one person was Ji Yan’s ability!

Everyone was surprised to find that the car accident did not make Ji Yan cower in fear. On the contrary, he was more confident, bold, and even more daring than before the accident. He was more daring in doing what he wanted to do. Seeing him like this, everyone seemed to have endless pride in their hearts. In the end, they decided to start a heated discussion on how to develop the west side of the city.
