Chapter 369: Jumping Means Certain Death

~5 min read 946 words

This is what I couldn't understand at the beginning; later I realized that all this conspiracy plot was merely to lure me and my son into this trap, and you didn't personally do this thing at that time; the one who did it should have been Tang Mu and Bo Er, the two of them, right?

When he said this, Zong Long indeed became somewhat silent.

That's right, he indeed did this back then.

But why is Xiao Ming now managing to investigate all of this?

But it doesn't matter; it's all in the past, and now everything has become an ironclad fact—even if he continues to resist, it's utterly meaningless.

Hehe, it seems I really underestimated General Manager Zong; I never expected General Manager Xiao to have such a complete grasp of everything—indeed, the kidnapping case back then was indeed planned by me.

Your purpose in plotting the kidnapping back then was to lure Yun Zhe and me into this conspiracy trap, right?

Yes, that's exactly it; at first I didn't consider you, but later I didn't expect that there would be some disagreement between Meng Ni and Yun Zhe, and that's how I noticed you.

From that time, have you already started scheming these things?

Yes, I started scheming then, and gradually lured you step by step into this trap, but I never expected you to actually believe all of this back then.

Yes, I was indeed convinced of this back then, but I tell you, some things aren't as simple as you imagine; do you really think you can control the whole situation?

After saying all that, Zong Long was stunned at that moment; he didn't know what clues Xiao Ming had in his hand red, and whether those clues were beneficial or harmful to him.

These things, Zong Long must verify one by one,

I thought I could control the whole situation, but I don't understand what you mean by that, General Manager Xiao.

It's simple: I tell you, don't think that Tang Mu and Bo Er's shares have already been transferred to you, and if I'm not mistaken, before this matter was settled, did you join forces with them and already kick Bo Er out?

This...

Zong Long never dreamed he would uncover something so secret; if that's the case, is there really any secret left before him?

If there really is a secret, why would he still go ahead knowing there are tigers on the mountain?

He knows this acquisition itself is a scam, and whoever can take over this deal will ultimately be the biggest victim; so why would he deliberately sign this agreement with me?

Since Xiao Ming has said all this, let's get straight to the point: I know you probably have a deadline in hand, but no matter what, this agreement has been signed—do you think you can still get away?

Yes, maybe I can't escape, and I know I'm indeed trapped on the ship, but don't forget that not everyone on the ship is me—General Manager Zong, you're also on the ship, aren't you?

Me? Do you really think saying this means we're stuck together? I tell you, if I wanted to jump ship, I could do it anytime.

Yes, if it's really jumping ship, in shallow water that might be understandable, but the key is we're already on the high seas, surrounded by sharks—jumping would certainly mean certain death.

Xiao Ming, what exactly do you mean by what you're saying?

It's nothing; I just want to tell you that I know all of your conspiracies, and before accepting you, I already fully acquired their assets—I believe these shares are truly present here, right?

You, what are you saying?

When Zong Long heard all this, he suddenly flew into a rage; you should know that Tang Mu's holdings are all actual shares—if he really took those shares, then he would be further tied to me.

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to push Xing Ya Company out entirely, so that everything could be blamed on Xiao Ming.

But if he obtains genuine shares, then this matter might be quite different.

I mean, these shares are now all in my name; if you don't believe me, I can let you have a look—this is the transfer document he signed for me back then, covering every asset, which I've carefully checked.

Xiao Ming said this while taking out the share transfer document and placing it before him.

Before coming, Xiao Ming had already made preparations; he knew it was time to show his cards with Zong Long.

Zong Long still seemed somewhat doubtful; he widened his eyes as much as he could and then took over the share transfer document.

He clearly saw that the document indeed gave detailed descriptions of these things, and each item was written very clearly.

And the signatures at the end were indeed their names; one could still distinguish Tang Mu's handwriting.

Impossible—Tang Mu would absolutely never betray me this way.

Fine, if you don't believe it, you can call him now; if I'm not mistaken, he shouldn't answer your call at this time.

How do you know he won't answer my call?

Go ahead and call; after you hang up, I'll tell you what all this is really for.

After hearing this, Zong Long felt even more like a monk two zhang tall—utterly bewildered.

Because many things seem not as I imagined; Tang Mu and company now clearly understand why Xiao Ming knows everything so well.

Under normal circumstances, he and Tang Mu had agreed to call only when there was something important, and such calls definitely involved important matters.
