CHAPTER 383: CHAPTER 374: YANG GUOQING STIRS UP TROUBLE

Yang Guoqing furrowed his brows. Lin Mu was right; he truly had no choice. If he didn’t do it, he would just have to wait to fall from grace, so Yang Guoqing had to act, though someone like Lin Mu probably wouldn’t lie!

"Alright, I agree with you!" Yang Guoqing nodded grimly. By agreeing, he had indicated that he was standing by Lin Mu’s side and offending Han Si Hai.

Meanwhile, Lin Mu secretly chuckled in his heart, "I’m going to screw you over. Han Si Hai still has some incriminating photos of you. Once you’ve offended Han Si Hai, do I even need to deal with you? Han Si Hai will cripple you himself!"

"Alright then, since that’s settled, I thank you in advance. I’ll leave the rest to you!"

Lin Mu said, leaving Yang Guoqing’s home.

After Lin Mu’s departure, Yang Guoqing collapsed onto the sofa as if paralyzed, pondering how to talk to Han Si Hai about this affair. No matter how he looked at it, that money wouldn’t reach Han Si Hai. Yang Guoqing knew very well that offending Han Si Hai was unwise, but it was still better than dealing with Lin Mu. Lin Mu was not even human; he secretly photographed him spending the night with another woman. Given these choices, Yang Guoqing had no choice but to stand with Lin Mu.

Standing by Lin Mu’s side might allow some leverage with Han Si Hai, but siding with Han Si Hai would result in no chance at all. If those photos got online, the disciplinary committee would be on him tomorrow.

Yang Guoqing calmed himself, picked up the phone, and dialed a number. He called an employee specialized in handling such business, named Ah Ming.

"Hey, Ah Ming, has that loan application contract been mailed out yet?" Yang Guoqing asked over the phone.

"Not yet, planning to send it out tomorrow. Is there something you need, Chairman Yang?" Ah Ming asked.

"There’s been a change. Don’t send out that contract. Put it back on my desk." Yang Guoqing instructed.

"Understood, Chairman Yang." Ah Ming responded.

After hanging up, Yang Guoqing thought for a moment before calling Han Si Hai.

"Haha, Chairman Yang, what’s up?" Han Si Hai sounded in high spirits over the phone. With money in hand, his business was like a fish in water, thriving again. How could Han Si Hai not be pleased?

Yang Guoqing remained silent for a moment before saying, "Eldest Young Master Han, there’s been a change."

Upon hearing this, Han Si Hai immediately turned cold. "What happened? Wasn’t everything going smoothly? What’s changed?"

"The provincial bank won’t approve it, so I have no way around this!" Yang Guoqing said into the phone.

"What?! Not approve it? Chairman Yang, you promised there would be no issues with the provincial bank!" Han Si Hai replied coldly, immediately sensing something fishy.

"Eldest Young Master Han, it’s the provincial bank’s decision. There’s nothing I can do. I suggest putting that loan on hold for now. I apologize!" Yang Guoqing said over the phone with some guilt.

"Put on hold?" Han Si Hai was instantly furious, revealing his explosive nature. "Damn it, I have everything set up on my end, and now you tell me to put it on hold. Are you kidding me?"

"Eldest Young Master Han, there’s nothing I can do at this point. You might need to look for another way or apply with a different bank." Yang Guoqing said somewhat tactfully.

Though he spoke tactfully, the message was clear: Han Si Hai wasn’t getting that money. He might as well give up!

"You son of a bitch, I supported you to the chairman’s seat, and now you’re playing tricks on me, aren’t you? Yang Guoqing, I’m telling you, I can push you up there, and I can bring you down too!" Han Si Hai shouted before hanging up.

After hanging up, Yang Guoqing exhaled. Although Han Si Hai was formidable, he had no direct evidence against him, so Yang Guoqing wasn’t too worried. But Lin Mu had evidence against him, leaving him no choice but to be concerned!

At this moment, in the main hall of the Han Family Mansion in East District, after hanging up, Han Si Hai threw a teacup from the table onto the ground in his fury!

"Damn it, Yang Guoqing, you old bastard, how dare you trick me!" Han Si Hai said angrily, wishing he could strangle Yang Guoqing at that moment!

Han Si Hai’s businesses were already prepared, just waiting for this capital injection. But at the crucial moment, this happened, leaving Han Si Hai incredibly frustrated, having celebrated too soon!

"Master Si, what happened?" Jue Qing, standing next to Han Si Hai, asked.

"We’ve been tricked by that dog Yang Guoqing. He just called saying the money can’t be loaned. Isn’t this deliberately screwing with me?" Han Si Hai said angrily.

"What about the business on our side? It’s all set up!" Jue Qing asked.

Han Si Hai blew out a cloud of thick smoke. "There’s no other choice. If it really doesn’t work out, we’ll sell off some stocks from those listed companies at a low price, get some funds to sustain the other businesses, then think of another way to raise some money!"

"Master Si, if we do that, our business will significantly shrink," Jue Qing reminded.

"There’s no better option. I can’t let all my businesses stagnate. Selling stocks for money is the only way now." Han Si Hai said with a wave of his hand. Without the capital injection, this was the only way.

"Master Si, what do you plan to do with that bastard Yang Guoqing? Should I send some people to take him out?" Jue Qing made a throat-slitting gesture.

"Yang Guoqing must die, but he won’t die so comfortably. I’ll mess with him first. Damn it, letting him think he can toy with me like this. He should consider if he has that leverage." Han Si Hai slammed the table in anger.

"What’s Master Si’s plan?"

"Hmph!" Han Si Hai sneered and said, "Post those photos from last night on all the major online forums. Let Yang Guoqing suffer for a few days. Let him know I can uplift him and drag him down just as easily. Once he’s had enough suffering, then we kill him!"

This was ruthless; indeed, Han Si Hai could easily take down Yang Guoqing, but he wasn’t going to do it that way. Death without knowing anything is too easy. Instead, he planned to make him suffer before sending him to his death.

There probably wasn’t anyone as ruthless as Han Si Hai. Clearly, this incident showed how furious Han Si Hai was, and how important the loan was to him!

Jue Qing nodded, "Don’t worry, Master Si. I’ll handle it now. By tomorrow morning, the scandals of Yang Guoqing will be the hottest topic online!"

"Alright, go handle it and do it beautifully!" Han Si Hai waved his hand.

Jue Qing nodded and went to arrange it!
