"Hello, Mr. William." In an instant, Wu Fang gathered her facial expressions and reached out her hand to greet him.
William reached out his hand and nodded at Wu Fang as a greeting. The two exchanged a knowing look.
Ji Jiale hadn't realized that something was wrong. He just thought that things were going very smoothly and that William had a bit of a crush on Wu Fang.
He kept winking at Wu Fang, hoping that she would say something nice.
After a few rounds of drinks, Ji Jiale finally got to the main topic, which was about Ji's Holdings.
When talking about this topic, Ji Jiale had been observing William's expression. He continued only after he was sure that William didn't show any particularly repulsive expressions.
"I'm sure you're quite familiar with the situation of Ji's. Currently, I have great confidence in it. It's just that I don't have the controlling stake. If I had it, the cooperation between Ji's and your company would proceed very smoothly, and I'd also give you an ultra - low discount..." Ji Jiale was really dedicated when talking about Ji's. He could clearly recite the financial statements of Ji's for the past few quarters. It really sounded quite convincing.
William's face opposite was very solemn. He nodded from time to time. It was hard to tell whether he understood or not, but in Ji Jiale's eyes, it only meant that William highly approved of his plan.
Thinking of this, Ji Jiale got even more excited. He even wanted to tell William all of Ji's glorious history.
"Mr. Ji, I've already understood all the situations of Ji's. I'm also very interested in it. But if we want to cooperate, we always need to show a bit of sincerity." After Ji Jiale had been talking for about half an hour, William finally couldn't help interrupting him. He was afraid that if Ji Jiale continued talking, he might fall asleep.
William's words made the smile on Ji Jiale's face a bit awkward.
He knew that when asking someone for help, there must be exchange conditions, but he didn't expect William to be so direct.
However, in some ways, it dispelled Ji Jiale's doubts. If someone really wanted to cheat his money, they wouldn't be so direct.
"What conditions does Mr. William want?" As an old hand in the business world, Ji Jiale didn't show his bottom line. Instead, he pushed the question back to William.
He had his own lowest price in mind. As long as William agreed to help him regain the controlling stake of Ji's, he could make concessions on many things.
"We don't have many conditions. We only require a sum of liquid funds to prove Mr. Ji's sincerity. That's all." William's words were much better than Ji Jiale had expected. At least it wasn't asking for the shares of Ji's, but this condition was still a bit difficult for Ji Jiale at this moment.
He didn't have much liquid funds in hand. If the other side asked for a large amount of liquid funds, he would have to sell his house.
"I wonder how much this liquid fund Mr. William mentioned is?" Looking at William, Ji Jiale tried hard not to show that he was penniless at this moment.
William first looked up at Wu Fang beside him. Wu Fang nodded at William.
"It depends on Mr. Ji's sincerity. We don't have a fixed amount. But if I want to convince the people in my family, there always has to be a bit of sincerity." In the end, William still didn't say a definite price. Instead, he kicked the ball back to Ji Jiale.
Hearing this, Ji Jiale cursed an old fox in his heart, but he had no choice. He just nodded and promised that he would consider it carefully.
For Ji Jiale, he could gather this sum of money by selling his house, but he was hesitating whether he should take a gamble.
Undoubtedly, for Ji Jiale, this was a huge gamble. If he won, he could own the controlling stake of the entire Ji's. If he lost, he wouldn't even have a place to live.
"I'll stay in City A for one day. I have a flight at 8 p.m. tomorrow. Mr. Ji, if you want to consider it, you should hurry up." William wasn't in a hurry. He just said the time he would stay in City A, showing the air of an old fox in the business world.
Wu Fang was quite satisfied with William's performance. She didn't expect that just by hiring a temporary extra, he would have such good acting skills.
Except that the atmosphere was a bit depressing when the conditions were mentioned in the middle, the two groups had a rather smooth conversation.
When seeing William off, Ji Jiale felt that his steps were a bit floating. It seemed that victory was right in front of him.
When the two groups were about to part ways, William took a bag from his assistant and gave it to Ji Jiale. He didn't say anything, just smiled at Jiale.
Seeing William's small action, Wu Fang was extremely panicked. She didn't know what William was going to do.
After all, there was no such item in their agreement.
Since the folder William gave was already sealed, Ji Jiale didn't open it in a hurry.
So Wu Fang had no idea what was inside. She just had her heart hanging in mid - air, afraid that William would suddenly turn against them and tell Ji Jiale everything.
It was not until he got in the car that Ji Jiale opened the folder. Looking at the contents in the folder, Ji Jiale immediately sat up straight. He couldn't believe what he had just seen and flipped through it carefully several times.
Wu Fang carefully observed Ji Jiale's actions and reactions. Seeing Ji Jiale's reaction, she became even more worried.
"Xiao Yang, help me find a real - estate agent." Before Wu Fang could summon the courage to speak, Ji Jiale had already called his assistant.
Hearing the content of their conversation, Wu Fang's hanging heart finally settled down. Looking at the folder, she was extremely curious about what exactly William had given Ji Jiale that made him so decisive to sell his house.
At this moment, neither Wu Fang nor Ji Jiale knew that after separating from them, William made a detour and then returned to the mall.
Shen Nanyi looked at the two men in front of her and fell into deep thought. She didn't expect that Ji Beichuan had set up such a big game, and the most important thing was that she had been completely unaware of it beforehand.
Why was Shen Nanyi staring at him like this? Did she not approve of his arrangement? Ji Beichuan instinctively felt a bit guilty and didn't dare to look at Shen Nanyi beside him.
This small action made the two men beside him seem to have discovered a new continent.
"Even the eldest young master Ji is afraid of someone?"
"It's really too rare."
As Ji Beichuan's die - hard friends, they had seen all kinds of Ji Beichuan, but they had never seen a Ji Beichuan who was a bit afraid.
Being stared at by his two friends, Ji Beichuan didn't care at all. Instead, he stared back.
"Are you two still single up to now?" Strike at the vital point. Ji Beichuan knew better than anyone what words were the most hurtful.
Sure enough, just one sentence made the two men on the scene instantly quiet down. They both looked at Ji Beichuan resentfully, especially William's heart - broken expression, which really seemed like it.
