If he could, he would secretly help them.
After some deliberation, Xiao Cheng made a decision, "I'll think about it and give you an answer tomorrow."
Hearing his words, Antina was overjoyed.
As long as he was willing to consider it, it meant there was hope.
Then, Antina stood outside and chatted with Xiao Cheng for a very long time, mostly expressing her humble apologies and seeking an opportunity to atone.
Of course, Xiao Cheng would agree, but he didn't want to appear too obvious.
He planned to agree tomorrow when Antina came again.
...
Lan City.
Zhuo Rui Technology, President's Office.
Qing Muyye's company faced an unprecedented crisis, and he was extremely anxious as the company's funds were tied up.
After much thought, he called Lu Yanming, "Yanming?"
"What is it?" Lu Yanming asked, busy in his office.
Qing Muyye rubbed his temples, "You know my company is in crisis. Can you... lend me some money?"
Currently, the company had frozen his bank accounts, and he needed to borrow money to keep things afloat.
"How much?"
Lu Yanming knew Qing Muyye would come to him for a loan, especially given his current situation.
"One hundred billion."
"One hundred?" Lu Yanming breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was difficult, he agreed, "Okay, I'll transfer it to Song Ci by tomorrow afternoon at the latest."
"Thanks," Qing Muyye said, without adding anything else.
After that, he called Tang Si and borrowed thirty billion from him.
Tang Si had just taken over Bo Ren Group and was still in fierce business competition with Huo Xiaohua, requiring a lot of funds. Thirty billion was his limit.
After contacting Tang Si, he also reached out to Han Yu.
Han Yu's family was in business, but Han Yu had always stayed away from company affairs. In the end, Qing Muyye only managed to borrow fifty billion from Han Yu.
The money from the three good brothers combined only amounted to one hundred and thirty-five billion. While it was a drop in the bucket, it was enough to get through a few days.
Because his bank cards were frozen, their funds could only be earned under Song Ci's name.
Afterward, Qing Muyye listed several of his properties for sale at low prices through a real estate agency.
He also sold various luxury cars, watches, and other items.
In an instant, Qing Muyye's actions caused a huge stir in Lan City.
News spread like wildfire and quickly climbed to the trending topics list.
Various rumors circulated, making the situation known to everyone.
Meanwhile.
Qing Si Huai, who was in the hospital, also received the news.
Lying in his hospital bed, he looked at the tablet handed to him by his subordinate and the trending news. The corners of his lips curled into a smile, "Heh, I didn't expect Qing Muyye to reach this point!"
This was the day he had been waiting for, for years.
The subordinate continued to report, "Qing Muyye is selling his assets and seems to have borrowed a lot of money from Lu Yanming and Tang Si. I heard it's over a hundred billion."
"Heh," Qing Si Huai smirked evilly, "Let alone a hundred billion, the money he already owes the bank, even five hundred billion wouldn't be enough to cover the deficit."
The assistant adjusted his glasses and tentatively asked, "Will he ask the Qing family for help?"
Qing Si Huai shook his head, "His reign is over. The elders in the family, who doesn't distance themselves from him? No one is willing to lend him money at this juncture."
Hearing this news, Qing Si Huai felt refreshed, and even the pain from his injuries didn't seem to bother him.
"It's exhilarating, truly exhilarating, Hahaha!"
He laughed heartily.
