Chapter 2603: Chairman Zhou's Father-in-law

Upon hearing this, Bai Hui's face, which had been incomparably haggard due to excessive exhaustion, instantly lost its last trace of color and turned as pale as paper. The strength in her body seemed to have been drained all at once, and she slumped weakly against the sofa, her hands trembling uncontrollably.

Bai Hui had never met Wu Hui, but she was all too familiar with the name; it was simply deafening. He was one of the top-tier second-generation kids in Guangdong Province. Looking across the entire province, one couldn't count on their fingers how many people could contend with him.

At this moment, Bai Hui's eyes were filled with deep despair and helplessness. Even if Zhou Andong's energy was truly great, could it be greater than Wu Hui's? Would he dare to offend Wu Hui?

Taking a step back, even if Zhou Andong dared to offend Wu Hui, would he really be willing to offend a figure of Wu Hui's level for a little bit of profit?

After all, Zhou Andong's influence was mainly in Beijing and Liaoning Province. Even if he had some relationship network or interpersonal resources in Guangdong, it was likely limited and couldn't possibly defeat Wu Hui.

What's more, Wu Hui wasn't just one person, but a group of people. This was a web composed from top to bottom, which could be described as "pulling one hair and moving the whole body." And for the Baijian Pharmaceutical matter, no matter who intervened, they wouldn't just be offending Wu Hui alone, but the entire interest group with Wu Hui at its core.

Liu Aijun felt Bai Hui's despair and helplessness. When she heard that this Wu Hui's father was the Provincial No. 3, she was also in despair. She didn't know what to say to comfort her, so she could only hold Bai Hui's trembling hand tightly, silently giving her strength.

Shen Wenqi also gave up his last shred of fantasy. There was no hope of getting Zhou Andong to take action, because they couldn't afford the chips. At this moment, he finally understood why his sister-in-law was willing to use all her family assets to trade for her husband, yet no one dared to help.

Even answering a phone call or revealing a bit of information was something no one dared to do, because the other party was too powerful. After all, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is human nature. Moreover, so-called friends are only together because of interests. If it were him, he would definitely hide far away too.

As for Wu Hongkang, he could only sigh inwardly. He knew how strong Zhou Andong's connections in Guangdong were. If he were willing to reach out and help, the matter could be resolved. But if he offended Wu Hui because of this, it wouldn't be worth it; after all, Zhou Andong had quite a few investments in Guangdong.

Zhou Andong turned his chair slightly, faced everyone, and smiled: "Wu Hui, huh? It really is a case of 'enemies meeting on a narrow road'."

Hearing Zhou Andong's words, Bai Hui, who had already been in despair and ashen-faced, had her eyes light up instantly. She didn't know where the strength came from, but her body sat straight, and she stared at Zhou Andong without blinking.

Wu Hongkang was stunned and asked suspiciously: "Old Zhou, do you have a grudge with Wu Hui?"

Shen Wenqi and Liu Aijun's faces simultaneously revealed a look of hope, while Nie Wen, Tang Lin, and Zhang Zuo all looked curious.

Zhou Andong smoked silently. As the smoke crawled out of his mouth, his eyes narrowed slightly: "We not only have a grudge, but this grudge is not shallow."

Tang Lin asked uncomprehendingly: "How could you have a grudge with him?"

Zhou Andong watched the smoke slowly drift in front of him and said softly: "You know about my Third Grandfather's matter, right?"

"Of course I know." Tang Lin nodded: "We even had a meal with your uncle. Last Spring Festival, someone wanted to burn down the bar; didn't your uncle and aunt go over to join in the fun too?"

Zhou Andong organized his language and said: "I have another Great Grandfather..."

Then, Zhou Andong told the story of his Great Grandfather: "Wu Hui hit my cousin with his car. Because she needed a blood transfusion and our blood types happened to be the same, I donated blood to her.

Later, I chatted with her older brother—my cousin—and learned that his grandfather had fled from the Northeast to the south, and his past experience was very similar to my Great Grandfather's. So, I secretly pulled two hairs from my cousin, did a DNA test after returning to Beijing, and confirmed that she was a descendant of my Great Grandfather."

"Damn it!" Zhang Zuo cursed: "Is it that coincidental?"

Nie Wen sighed: "This can no longer be described as a coincidence; it's just Heaven arranging it in the dark."

Zhou Andong stubbed the cigarette butt into the ashtray: "No wonder we remembered the license plate and reported it to the police, but the police kept saying they couldn't find it. It turns out it was because of that Deputy Director Zhuo in the Provincial Department."

Nie Wen said helplessly: "So, you've decided to intervene?"

Zhou Andong didn't answer Nie Wen's question but looked at Bai Hui: "Tell me about the equity distribution of Baijian Pharmaceutical."

Hearing Zhou Andong's words, Bai Hui's body was instantly filled with strength. Regardless of whether Zhou Andong could save her husband, there was always a glimmer of hope now.

"Baijian Pharmaceutical has a total of seven shareholders. My husband and I hold 46%, and the other 54% is in the hands of the other six people."

Zhou Andong pondered: "Are the shares of the other six people still in their hands?"

Bai Hui shook her head: "After my husband had the accident, the other six people sold their shares. At the time, I didn't know who they sold them to or how much money they sold them for. Now I know, they must have sold them to Wu Hui."

"Then this matter is a bit difficult to handle." Zhou Andong's brows furrowed: "Offending trash like Wu Hui doesn't matter. It's just that I have quite a few investments in Guangdong, so naturally, I should offend as few people as possible.

Therefore, this matter must be handled within the rules. There must be a reason that allows me to reasonably intervene, to block the mouths of those dogs, so that even if they want to bite, they can't open their mouths."

Shen Wenqi pondered for a moment and immediately understood Zhou Andong's meaning, his spirit instantly lifted: "Chairman Zhou, my sister-in-law holds 20% of the shares."

Zhou Andong raised his eyebrows and asked Bai Hui: "Are the shares held by you and your husband separate?"

"Yes!" Bai Hui nodded: "When we bought the pharmaceutical factory, we didn't have money in our hands. Aside from the loan, part of the money was borrowed from relatives on my mother's side. To let my parents and relatives rest easy, my husband put 20% of the shares in my name."

Zhou Andong looked at Nie Wen: "How about it? Are you interested?"

Nie Wen didn't answer but asked: "How do you plan to divide the 20% of shares?"

"I want 5%." Zhou Andong said in a deep voice: "As long as I become a shareholder, I have a reason to intervene in this matter."

Nie Wen looked at Zhou Andong with a smile: "How come I feel like you still have something you haven't said clearly?"

"Ah?" Zhou Andong looked blank: "Miss Nie, what do you mean by that? I've said everything that should be said. If there's anything I haven't said clearly, you can ask now; I guarantee I'll tell you everything I know."

Nie Wen rolled her eyes at Zhou Andong: "54% of the shares have already been sold to Wu Hui. How do you plan to distribute them?"

Zhou Andong put on a look of sudden realization and played dumb: "Oh, you mean this? We'll talk about it when the time comes."

Nie Wen said irritably: "Just keep playing dumb."

Zhou Andong's skin was thick; he didn't care what you said or what you thought. "My father-in-law also knows about Wu Hui hitting my cousin with his car, and he's preparing to use this matter to light the first fire.

However, just one Wu Hui, plus some small fry, is a bit light in weight, so he has been slow to take action. Now, adding this Baijian Pharmaceutical matter, the opportunity for my father-in-law to light the first fire has arrived."

"Who is Chairman Zhou's father-in-law..." Shen Wenqi tilted his head to look at Wu Hongkang, his eyes full of confusion.

Wu Hongkang whispered in Shen Wenqi's ear. Shen Wenqi's eyes instantly widened, his eyeballs bulging out of their sockets, looking completely disbelieving. Immediately after, his face turned bright red. ===== CHAPTER 2604 =====
