Chapter 378: Bankrupt
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The video taken by Tang Zhenghao’s private investigator only showed Li Sicheng’s face, and he had not mentioned one word about Tang Mengying. His plan to send Li Sicheng to prison failed, and at the same time, Li Sicheng’s countercharges rendered him guilty. Tang Zhenghao immediately decided to blame his wife for everything.
Tang Zhenghao went back to his office and dealt with the business while figuring out a way to get his wife out. In the end, he paid a great fortune for Li Sicheng’s lawyer to “lose the case.” When Mrs. Tang got out of detention, it was five days later.
This incident had a great impact on the Tang company. The board had a meeting and requested an explanation from Tang Zhenghao. After dealing with the board members, he had another trouble: although the customs had agreed to hand the raw materials imported from Germany to him, they needed to deduct a part of it. He quickly showed his sincerity by “thanking” the officials properly and got his hands on the materials.
However, at this time, Shengfeng called to ask him to s.h.i.+p the first batch of products. His head hurting, Tang Zhenghao pleaded to have more time. The Shengfeng guy changed his tone. “I ordered the products with you a long while ago. You said you have something in stock, which was the only reason why I placed a huge order. Now you’re telling me nothing is ready, please enlighten me, what I should tell my supervisor?”
“You can’t put it that way… It is not the first time for us to collaborate…”
“That was the very reason that I trusted you. My supervisor originally wanted to give the order to the Li group. I gave it to you because I respect you. Now you’re telling me you can’t deliver? Do you still remember what our contract says?”
Tang Zhenghao had an even worse headache and quickly nodded.
“All right, I will give you two more days. If you still cannot deliver then, it will be considered a breach of the contract.”
Tang Zhenghao quickly became pale and yelped, “Two more days, how…” How is that possible?
Before he finished, the guy hung up.
“What the heck!” Tang Zhenghao was p.i.s.sed off. Pacing back and forth, he took out his cell phone and wanted to dial back. However, the guy never picked up again. Stomping his feet, he called the factory, which was already working hard to catch up. “Hurry. Hire more people and make them work overtime! We must get the first batch ready in just two days.”
The damages would be worth more than his entire company!
Tomorrow would be grandpa’s birthday, and Su Qianci finally got her present ready at the last minute. Li Sicheng was not back yet, so she had some food herself, had a shower, and studied in the living room. When he came back, it was past 9 PM. Seeing him, she put her book down and asked, “Did you eat?”
“Not yet.”
“All right, I will heat up some dishes for you.”
“Okay.” He looked at her softly. “Then I’ll have a shower first.”
“Sure.”
After getting the dishes ready, she saw him walking downstairs wearing nothing but a bathrobe.
Feeling the thick fabric of her pajamas, Su Qianci asked, “Aren’t you cold?”
“No. Sit down with me.”
She sat down and asked, “Are you still busy with the plan?”
“Almost done. I’m now handling the acquisition of the Tang group.”
“Acquisition of the Tang group?” She stared at him, her eyes wide. “Meaning Tang Zhenghao’s company?”
“Yes, they are bankrupt.”
