Kyoto Qian Meng KTV.
When Ye Cangtian and Xu Shi'an arrived, the first thing they saw in the private room were two men, bound hand and foot, urinating themselves in fear.
Ye Cangtian?
The moment they saw Ye Cangtian, Chen Zekai and Gong Xin's faces turned deathly pale.
The ruthless scene of Ye Cangtian beating off Zhou Bang and others was still vivid in their minds.
"Heh heh, President Chen, President Gong, it's been a few days, and I've missed you dearly!"
"Quickly, quickly, untie them. How can we treat our esteemed guests like this?"
After nodding to Cang Lang, Ye Cangtian revealed a sinister smile. Cang Lang in the room quickly signaled his subordinates to untie them, and then retreated from the room.
Cang Lang could be responsible for 'inviting' people.
But he didn't want to get involved in the specific matters!
After all, the people involved behind this matter were too influential!
"Mr. Ye, wasn't our cooperation going smoothly? Why did Mr. Ye invite us here?"
Chen Zekai swallowed and managed to calm himself down, saying, "Why did you invite us here?"
"Heh heh, asking like that is meaningless. Don't you know why I called you here?"
Ye Cangtian said with a faint smile, rubbing his hands and walking forward.
"This... this has nothing to do with us!"
"Our company has completed the handover. What does the disappearance of those employees have to do with us?"
Seeing Ye Cangtian approach, Gong Xin's head was covered in cold sweat, and he quickly said, "What does this have to do with us?"
"Nothing to do with you? Don't bully me for being uneducated!"
"Although I don't handle business, I still understand the basics of acquisitions."
"After signing the acquisition contract, the employees of your two companies belonged to Tang Group. On the first day of the formal handover, they disappeared. If I don't find you, who else should I find?"
Ye Cangtian smiled slightly and picked up Gong Xin's chin with his hand. This simple gesture almost made Gong Xin cry.
This was like buying groceries. If the weight was short, you naturally had to find the seller.
"The disappearance of those employees really has nothing to do with us. How could we have such great power?" Chen Zekai quickly said.
"Really nothing to do with us?"
Ye Cangtian's expression changed, and he continued, "It's easy to make one person disappear, but how can it be so easy to make tens of thousands of people disappear?"
"Without your company's employee information, how could they have done it? And why are you hiding at home?"
With just a few words, Chen Zekai and Gong Xin became incoherent, their bodies trembling more violently.
The two suddenly realized that no matter how much they explained, they probably couldn't dispel Ye Cangtian's doubts.
Finally, under Ye Cangtian's pressure, Chen Zekai gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Ye, if I tell you everything, can you guarantee our safety and the safety of our families?"
"Naturally." Ye Cangtian showed a satisfied smile.
Upon hearing this, Chen Zekai said, "It was the Zhou family of Kyoto who colluded with the Song family and the Xia family, threatening our safety and the safety of our families, forcing us..."
Chen Zekai confessed everything. He was already powerless against just the Zhou family.
What's more, the other party had also colluded with the Song and Xia families. Under duress, he could only steal personal files from the human resources department to protect himself.
...
Zhou family villa.
A burly man in black stood respectfully in front of Zhou Quan.
"Mr. Zhou, we just received news that Cang Lang kidnapped Chen Zekai and Gong Xin. I'm afraid the matter of those employees will be leaked."
"Should we get rid of these people..."
"Hmm?"
Zhou Quan paused slightly and waved his hand.
"It doesn't matter! We dug up so many people, the news will spread sooner or later."
"As for Cang Lang and Chen Zekai, they are nothing more than annoying insects. Killing them would dirty my hands."
The man in black nodded in understanding.
"How is Bang'er?" Zhou Quan asked.
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhou. Young Master Zhou is much more stable emotionally after learning that his legs can be healed. He is actively cooperating with the treatment, and we believe his recovery speed will be faster," the man in black replied respectfully.
Zhou Quan nodded and responded, "Mm, that's good. Take me to see him tomorrow."
...
Back at the villa.
As soon as Ye Cangtian entered, he heard Tang Xinwan talking on the phone.
The call was from Tang Yongchang. With such a major incident, Tang Group had also received the news and was in chaos.
Although Tang Group was a conglomerate formed by the integration of the Tang family's entire industry, it also included some branch enterprises of the Tang family.
Under normal circumstances, these branches made money by riding on the Tang family's ship, so they wouldn't say much.
Even if the Tang family changed its leadership, as long as there was money to be made, no one would object to whoever was the head of the family.
But now it was different. Tang Group had been established, binding the interests of all family enterprises together.
Now, after acquiring two medium-sized pharmaceutical companies, Tang Group's capital had been basically emptied.
Now that they heard that these two companies were just empty shells, this deal was equivalent to a complete loss, and a massive loss at that.
A losing business, coupled with Tang Xinwan's previous insistence and unilateral decision-making, inevitably led to resentment from some people.
"The incident happened too suddenly. Give me a few days, and I will definitely give Tang Group a satisfactory explanation!"
"If not, I will immediately abdicate!"
Tang Xinwan was in a very bad mood, but she had no solution to this matter for the time being, so she could only brace herself and stabilize Tang Group first.
"How can that be? You are the head of the family appointed by the old man. Your abilities are evident to all. How can you just step down like that!"
"If Tang Group changes hands, won't it regress instead of progress!"
Tang Yongchang's anxious voice came from the phone.
But Tang Xinwan had lost the mood and hung up the phone directly.
She then saw Ye Cangtian return, frowned slightly, then relaxed, appearing to want to say something but stopping, sighed, and leaned back on the sofa, closing her eyes to rest.
How could Ye Cangtian help with such matters?
"Heh heh, are you really planning to abdicate?"
Ye Cangtian sat down, handed her a glass of water, and continued, "If that were the case, as uncle said, Tang Group would regress instead of progress!"
After this incident, those who complained would surely think that Kyoto was a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, and would not dare to develop further in Kyoto. Perhaps the newly established Kyoto branch company would also close down.
This would greatly affect the development of Tang Group, and Tang Group's reputation would also be greatly diminished.
Tang Xinwan glanced at Ye Cangtian, snorted, and said, "Am I the kind of person who gives up easily? Let me tell you, I've already guessed who is behind it, it's..."
Tang Xinwan was not stupid. She had sensed everything when Zhou Bang came to disrupt the acquisition.
This matter was likely related to Baishan Pharmaceutical, as they did not want to see the Kyoto branch company grow stronger.
Now that the two pharmaceutical companies were empty, and the equipment was destroyed, this was exactly what Baishan Pharmaceutical wanted to see.
However, even though Tang Xinwan guessed it, she had no concrete evidence, nor did she know the whereabouts of those employees or have a way to get them back.
"Heh heh, necessity is the mother of invention. Since you've already guessed the mastermind, it shouldn't be difficult to come up with a solution."
"It's just that your mind is in a mess now, affecting your thinking. How about this, I'll take you out to relax tomorrow..."
Ye Cangtian said with a smile, but was glared at by Tang Xinwan before he could finish.
At this critical moment, who had the mood to go out and relax!
Seeing Tang Xinwan's cold expression, Ye Cangtian's smile remained unchanged, saying, "Xinwan, we are husband and wife. No matter when, I will stand behind you. Trust me."
"Hmph! Fake couple! You'll be kicked out in a year!"
"No, it's only a few months left!"
"You'd better perform well! If I'm not satisfied, you'll be useless!"
Tang Xinwan snorted, then got up and returned to the master bedroom.
Although she appeared fierce, she still chose to believe him, because in times of crisis, Ye Cangtian had never disappointed her and always stepped forward.
Heh heh.
Ye Cangtian smiled triumphantly and followed her.
As soon as he entered the master bedroom, he saw Tang Xinwan preparing a floor mat for him.
Ye Cangtian looked at the soft big bed, then at the floor mat, and couldn't help but sigh.
I wonder when I will be able to...
