Chapter 285: Threatening You with the Woman You Love Most
Sheng Hanyu was not bluffing him.
Zhu Yiwen's little hobby might be nothing in some countries, but in L Country, it was enough to ruin his reputation.
"You all go out; I have something to say to Mr. Sheng alone." Zhu Yiwen, fearing the consequences of his actions, chased all his bodyguards out.
Everyone went out, except for A Qing, who remained.
A Qing was his confidant and knew all his secrets, so there was nothing wrong with him staying.
Moreover, A Qing stayed because he was worried about his safety, fearing that Sheng Hanyu might do something to the Head of the Family.
"Mr. Sheng, please sit. Let's have a good talk."
Zhu Yiwen had A Qing close the door, preparing to begin his plan.
"Where is Xuanxuan?"
Sheng Hanyu asked again.
"Heh..."
Zhu Yiwen sneered: "Sheng Hanyu, you had better get the situation straight. You snuck into my house in the middle of the night and keep insisting on finding my wife—what exactly are you trying to do? I am already showing you respect; don't think I am easy to talk to."
"If I send you to the police station tomorrow morning or leak this matter to the television station, have you thought about what the consequences will be?"
Zhu Yiwen was just bluffing him; Sheng Hanyu knew this in his heart.
If he were really going to do that, he wouldn't be negotiating with Sheng Hanyu at all, but would have called the police beforehand and had people lying in ambush in the room.
As it turned out, the people in ambush were only Zhu Family bodyguards; there wasn't a single policeman or reporter, which clearly showed he wanted to catch him in a compromising position and "settle it privately" with him.
"Don't wait for tomorrow; call the police right now. Do you want me to help you make the call?"
Sheng Hanyu made a gesture to reach for his phone, only to realize he didn't know when he had dropped it; it wasn't on him.
"Sheng Hanyu, don't be too arrogant. Don't think I really won't do anything to you. Didn't you ask about Xuanxuan? Xuanxuan has already been implicated by you, and I have locked her up..."
"Let her go; this has nothing to do with her." A flash of panic crossed Sheng Hanyu's eyes; only when it came to matters involving Shi Youxuan would he lose his composure.
Zhu Yiwen felt smug inside, though it didn't show on his face: "So, are you willing to talk to me now?"
He told A Qing to go out, preparing for a long talk with Sheng Hanyu.
As long as he held Shi Youxuan in his hands, he wasn't afraid that Sheng Hanyu wouldn't obediently do as he was told.
Only the two of them remained in the room. Zhu Yiwen took a document out of a drawer and handed it to him: "As long as you sign this, today's matter will be wiped clean, and I will act as if nothing ever happened."
Sheng Hanyu opened it and scanned it roughly—it was an agreement to relinquish market share.
The gist was that Sheng Hanyu agreed not to meddle in L Country's business under any name in the future; not only himself, but his business partners were also not allowed to.
Additionally, there was another item: giving up the Jiangzhou real estate market!
Zhu Yiwen had quite an appetite, and his schemes were terrifyingly deep.
On the surface, this document didn't look like much, but if Sheng Hanyu were to actually sign it, there would be endless trouble.
His business partners included Wang Yong and the Tianma Group.
And the Tianma Group was jointly owned by Jian Yining and Shi Youxuan.
Once this was signed, it would become illegal for Wang Yong to do business in L Country in the future.
Furthermore, Jian Yining would also have to leave L Country, and Shi Youxuan would have no one to rely on in L Country other than Zhu Yiwen, leaving her no choice but to wholeheartedly help him expand his commercial territory.
This was killing four birds with one stone, completely resolving future troubles.
"What if I don't sign?"
Sheng Hanyu held the document in his hand, nonchalantly began to tear it, tore it into pieces, and then casually scattered them all over the room.
"Not signing is certainly an option."
Zhu Yiwen was not annoyed; he wouldn't be naive enough to think that Sheng Hanyu would sign just because he said a few words.
"Take a look at this."
He handed over his phone, which displayed several short videos.
They were videos sent by Shi Youxuan and Shi Ran on a yacht; the two of them were playing very happily and laughing very sweetly.
No wonder Zhu Yiwen was here; it turned out Shi Youxuan had taken the child and was not at home.
Before he could figure out why Zhu Yiwen was showing him this, Zhu Yiwen said as if chatting about daily life: "You say the wind and waves at sea are so big, what if there were some natural disaster..."
"Zhu Yiwen, what do you want to do?"
Sheng Hanyu completely panicked. He, who had always remained calm even if Mount Tai collapsed before him, now had his face change drastically. He grabbed Zhu Yiwen's arm tightly and said word by word: "If you dare to touch a single hair on their heads, I will definitely make you die a miserable death."
If looks could kill, Zhu Yiwen would surely have been sliced to death by him by now.
He shrugged, indicating with complete indifference: "I know. I know everything about what you did in Jiangzhou back then when you acted in a fit of rage for the sake of a beauty."
"It doesn't matter. I don't care. If you want, you can strangle me right now; anyway, I won't be your match in a fight."
Sheng Hanyu let go, beads of sweat even forming on his forehead.
The video couldn't be fake, and he couldn't risk the mother and daughter!
"Print the document again; I'll sign."
Zhu Yiwen opened the drawer, took out another copy, and threw it in front of him: "Here, it's already prepared for you."
Sheng Hanyu picked up the pen and signed his name on it.
Then he threw the pen to the floor and grabbed Zhu Yiwen by the collar to warn him: "Treat the mother and daughter well. If I find out you are tormenting Xuanxuan, I will ruin your reputation and bankrupt you."
Zhu Yiwen still smiled faintly: "It seems this mansion of mine really needs a good cleaning; you really did plant eyes in my house."
"Clean it then. At least half of your bodyguards and servants are my people. Unless you fire them all, I will know about any bad thing you do!" Sheng Hanyu said this deliberately.
"Please leave, Mr. Sheng. It's getting late, so I won't keep you."
Zhu Yiwen issued an order to leave, not forgetting to mock him: "How to treat my servants is my family business, so don't you worry about it. How to explain this to your brother is what you should be considering."
"I think Mr. Sheng shouldn't be stupid enough to tell his brother everything. After all, Xuanxuan, Ranran, and I are the ones who are a family."
This was a threat.
He was telling Sheng Hanyu that this matter must not be told to anyone else, and that Shi Youxuan and Shi Ran were both in his hands.
If Sheng Hanyu wanted them to be safe and sound, then he should continue to carry this pot for a long, long time!
"I know what I should do; I don't need you to remind me."
When Sheng Hanyu left the Zhu Zhai, he did not climb down the drainpipe, but walked out through the main gate.
This time, there was no need to carry the gardener's pesticide sprayer; he just walked out brazenly.
Along the way, he also realized something: even the most careful plan has a loophole.
The last time he left, he had disguised himself as a gardener going out to spray the trees.
The process itself was fine, but the problem was, wouldn't the real gardener have been exposed when he went to spray the trees?
With such a big flaw, it was impossible for the Zhu Family not to have noticed anything, yet the result was silent, as if nothing had ever happened.
Perhaps at that time, Zhu Yiwen had already calculated that he would return and had woven a large net waiting for him, and he had truly crashed right into it.
……
Sheng Hanyu walked to the checkpoint, and the guards did not stop him; they opened it directly, and he walked out smoothly, then continued straight along the main road.
Wang Yong was puzzled, but he did not make a sound; he followed him through the woods all the way to where the car was parked, and only asked after getting in: "Brother, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." He leaned back against the seat and closed his eyes.
