<h4>Chapter 1078: Chapter 1085: Stepping Down</h4>
Liu Wei didn’t expect Nanrong Wanqing to speak harshly to him and was momentarily stunned. He immediatelyughed and said, "Miss Nanrong, do you think I would care? I just said, your Nanrong family is vast and wealthy, while our Liu family ispletely iparable. If we both end up hurting each other, who do you think will suffer in the end? I think you know very well. Everyone does business for profit. There’s no need to make everyone unhappy. Rest assured, as long as your Hongyu Group supports me, we can make money together in the future. How does that sound?"
"Doesn’t sound good," Nanrong Wanqing said coldly, "I’ve already said, if you think the Nanrong family is easy to bully, then you are gravely mistaken." With that, Nanrong Wanqing stood up, walked to the desk, picked up a signed document, and casually threw it in front of Liu Wei, saying, "Take a good look, I’ve already signed a resignation letter. From now on, I’m no longer the chairman of Hongyu Group; Nanrong Hao will take over the management of Hongyu Group. From now on, whatever I do will have nothing to do with Hongyu Group. I’ve seen the contract you tricked me into signing; it only has my signature and fingerprint, which only represents me personally and cannot represent the entire Hongyu Group. If you wish to threaten Hongyu Group with it, you’ll be disappointed."
"You..." Liu Wei stared dumbly at the resignation letter, his mind unable to process it. He couldn’t believe that Nanrong Wanqing chose to step down. He hadn’t anticipated this move at all. Perhaps he saw Nanrong Wanqing as a fragile woman who couldn’t take such a drastic step.
But what he didn’t consider was that Nanrong Wanqing, being so young, could take over Hongyu Group and make it grow stronger; she is not someone an ordinary woman canpare to.
"Liu Wei, don’t you want Hongyu Group to share a boat with you? I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed. From today onward, no matter how many bad things you do, even if responsibility is shared, it would only be attributed to me, Nanrong Wanqing, and won’t implicate Hongyu Group and the Nanrong family."
"Good, very good!" Liu Wei regained hisposure, looked coldly at Nanrong Wanqing, and said in a deep voice, "I underestimated you. However, what difference does it make if you step down as chairman? You are still a part of the Nanrong family. I don’t believe your brother, Nanrong Hao, will be heartless enough to see you get into trouble." After saying this, Liu Wei stopped speaking and walked out of the office.
After Liu Wei left, Nanrong Wanqing felt as if she lost all her strength, slumping onto the sofa and slowly exhaling.
Stepping down as chairman was the most difficult decision Nanrong Wanqing had to make. Although this position would eventually pass to Nanrong Hao, the timing was meant to be yearster at least. The current decision was ast resort, as she didn’t want her actions to implicate Hongyu Group and the Nanrong family.
Hongyu Group represents decades of the Nanrong family’s hard work and must not fall because of her.
...
Wealthy Manor.
Bam!
In the spacious living room, Liu Wei grabbed a vase and smashed it hard onto the ground, his face livid.
"Well done, Nanrong Wanqing. Consider yourself ruthless. Just wait, I want to see if your Nanrong family really can bear to give you up. Come here!"
"President Liu, what are your orders?"
"Go prepare the information on the Tianyu Leisure Club, and remember, I want everything, both the legitimate and the underground business, as detailed as possible."
"Yes, President Liu, when do you need it?"
"As soon as possible."
"Understood."
Liu Wei’s subordinates were very efficient, and in less than half an hour, aplete file was delivered to Liu Wei. As he browsed through Tianyu Leisure Club’s business, Liu Wei’s expression gradually returned to normal, and he smiled slightly, saying, "What do you think? If this information fell into the hands of the police, how many years would they get?"
"President Liu, without mentioning anything else, just selling drugs alone is enough to get a life sentence. Adding up other illegal trades and multiple charges, it’s either life imprisonment or the death penalty. President Liu, why are you asking about this?" his subordinate asked in confusion.
"Life imprisonment?" Liu Wei chuckled to himself, saying, "Enough! I don’t believe Nanrong Hao would disregard his sister’s safety. Go, prepare a car for me, I want to visit Nanrong Hao and have a good chat."
As he spoke, a cell phone rang. Seeing his subordinate’s sudden change in expression while answering the call, Liu Wei casually asked, "What’s the matter?"
"President Liu, Tianyu called, saying Nanrong Hao has gone there, and he’s brought quite a few people and is preparing to wreak havoc on our venue."
"Really?" Liu Wei’s eyes gleamed, and he couldn’t help butugh out loud, "This truly is a stroke of luck! Let him smash it up, we’ll catch him right in the act. Let’s go, apany me to Tianyu. By the way! Don’t forget to call the policeter; we’re legitimate businessmen, it’s better to let the police handle this sort of thing."
At this time, Nanrong Wanqing was sitting in the chairman’s office, repeatedly calling Nanrong Hao’s phone, but no one was answering, and she didn’t know where he had gone. She originally wanted to discuss the matter of assuming the chairman position with him, but now she couldn’t even find him.
"Chairman." As she pondered, Wang Lan pushed open the office door and said, "A person named Jiang Hao called, looking for you. Do you want to take the call?"
Jiang Hao?
Nanrong Wanqing was slightly taken aback; wasn’t he a good-for-nothing friend of Nanrong Hao? Why would he be calling her?
Thinking for a moment, Nanrong Wanqing said, "Put the call through."
"Yes."
The call connected, Nanrong Wanqing asked, "Jiang Hao, do you need something from me?"
"Miss Nanrong, is Haozi with you?" Jiang Hao’s tone carried a hint of urgency.
"No, his phone is off, and I can’t reach him. Why, are you looking for him?"
"Sigh!" Jiang Hao said helplessly, "That guy rushed out with a big crowd just now. My subordinates said they were all armed, looking intimidating, saying they wanted to deal with that Liu fellow. I wasn’t around at the time, and when I got back, Haozi had already left. I can’t reach him, and I’m afraid he’ll do something stupid, so I called to check."
Oh no!
Nanrong Wanqing immediately felt a strong sense of unease. Nanrong Hao had mentioned he would find a way to resolve the Liu Wei issue. She thought Nanrong Hao was just venting anger, but she didn’t expect him to take it seriously.
"Jiang Hao, do you know where he went?"
"He’s definitely gone to find Liu Wei; I think the likelihood of him going to Tianyu Leisure Club is very high."
"I understand, thank you!" After saying this, Nanrong Wanqing immediately hung up the phone, got up, and ran out of the office.
No matter what, Nanrong Hao must not get into trouble.
At this moment, Ling Chen, resting at home, also received a call from Jiang Hao.
