273 Life and Death
“Compared to President Shan’s methods, my ability is really far inferior. You’re an outstanding talent of the younger generation. I believe your ability shouldn’t be inferior to Zhou Xuan’s, right?”
Tang Xia’s especially focused eyes stared intently at Shan Yue. “You came to look for me before this. First, you revealed that you had the photo as evidence, making me subconsciously think that you only had this photo in your hand. Then, you suggested that I use 20% of my shares and 50 billion yuan as a bargaining chip in exchange for evidence. If I agree to your request, you’ll achieve your goal. You’ll keep the video and no one will know of its existence from now on.”
His words gradually became heavier. Tang Xia’s dark eyebrows tightened a little, but his eyes were still following Shan Yue.
“But once I don’t agree to your request, this video will become your last resort. It’s enough to kill my Tang family. I think if we don’t come to this lounge to look for you, you’ll probably look for us later.”
“That’s right, Uncle Tang.” The curve of Shan Yue’s eyebrows carried a hint of mockery. “You have to know that my original intention was not to let Miss Tang suffer in jail. I just wanted to get what I wanted. Wouldn’t it be best if we each take a step back and fulfill each other’s wishes?”
Tang Xia was deliberately suppressing his emotions. After all, he was at a disadvantage now. “Once I give you the shares and you release the video during the court session, won’t my Tang family never be able to stand out?”
“No, Uncle Tang. At this point, we should have some basic trust in each other. We’re both businessmen. I understand the principle of paying and delivering at the same time.”
Shan Yue sat leisurely on the sofa. “As long as I get what I deserve, I can guarantee that no one outside this room will know about this video. If you had agreed to my request from the beginning, there would have been no need for this video to exist at all. It’s just that you thought you were smart and missed the best time to deal.”
“The Tang Corporation is my Tang family’s life’s work. I’ve seen all kinds of storms over the years, but I’ve still survived them. However, it’s impossible for me to hand over the shares to you so easily with just this photo.”
Shan Yue nodded slightly. “Although that’s what you say, Uncle Tang, you have to know that society is not your home. There are many things that everyone doesn’t want to do. Some things are not up to them. A wise man submits to circ.u.mstances. Everything depends on what you think.”
“Miss Shan, I have to praise you. If not for our opposing relations.h.i.+p, I would prefer to be partners with you. Although you’re not old, you’re really good.”
As Tang Xia listened to Shan Yue promise word by word, the determination in his heart slowly began to waver. Just as he was hesitating, Tang Li’s words broke the silence.
“Father, don’t agree to her conditions. We can’t just hand over the Tang Corporation that we’ve worked so hard to manage.” There was no warmth in Tang Li’s words. She said in a slightly hoa.r.s.e voice, “The more she’s like this, the more we can’t let her evil plan succeed. Even if we can’t win against her, we have to lose fair and square.”
“But like this…”
Tang Xia looked at his daughter with heartache. “If we don’t agree to her request, she can use this video as evidence after she goes to court. At that time, it will confirm the fact that we perjure ourselves. Not only your a.s.sistant, but even you have to go in for a few years. However, you only have a few years of youth. I don’t want you to spend all your time in prison.”
“Even if I have to waste a few years of my youth, I don’t want our Tang Corporation to fall into the hands of such a person.” At this moment, Tang Li’s eyebrows and lips were filled with unwillingness and resentment. “Didn’t you already greet that chief judge? I believe you will definitely think of a way to let me go out early. Even if we have to fight to the death with her today, we can’t give up our shares.”
