Chapter 216: Jiang Sui, you've gotten fat!
The Hawke Casper family is the world's richest and most mysterious family. Preliminary estimates put its assets at over 80 trillion, which is more than the combined assets of over 500 of the world's richest people.
Moreover, this family has controlled the global economy for two centuries, and even in today's Western political arena, they secretly manipulate events.
They are the "shadow emperors" of the Western world.
As early as the 19th century, this family controlled more than 50% of the world's wealth on its own.
This is the first time such a powerful Western family has cooperated with a group from Country A, making it a highly anticipated event.
Instantly, the stock price of Zhan Group began to soar.
In just half a day, it had already returned to its previous level.
……
Jiang family
Jiang Zhengguo said to Jiang Qianhui in shock, "Qianhui, the Zhan Group has actually partnered with the Hawke Casper family."
Jiang Zhengguo was extremely shocked, and he looked unwell.
Jiang Qianhui remained silent, but her heart was also churning. In her previous life, Zhan Yanxun had no connection with the Hawke Casper family. Why was he cooperating with Hawke Casper in this life?
Yang Huirong said angrily, "We were about to see Zhan's stock hit the daily limit down, and we were about to see the Zhan family go bankrupt. How could they cooperate with the Hawke Casper family at this time? The Hawke Casper family's subsidiary is a top global luxury group."
Although Yang Huirong was not familiar with business matters, the Hawke Casper family was renowned worldwide.
"Mom, it's alright. Although he narrowly escaped this time, Zhan Yanxun is playing with fire and it won't last long."
Jiang Zhengguo said, "Sui Sui is right. The Hawkesper family is no benevolent family. We don't want them to swallow the Zhan Group whole, leaving nothing but bones. However, now that he has recovered, I'm afraid Zhan Yanxun might turn against us."
Upon hearing this, Yang Huirong immediately became agitated. She angrily said, "He's the one who had an affair. Does he want to take revenge on us?"
Jiang Zhengguo said seriously, "This time it was Sui Sui who almost bankrupted the Zhan Group and even forced him to divorce in public. It's a great humiliation for him, and I'm afraid he will retaliate."
Jiang Qianhui did not speak, but her eyes were deep.
Just then, Jiang Qianhui's phone rang; it was Old Qin calling.
"Sui Sui, something's happened at the jade mine."
"Old Qin, what's wrong?"
"Official officials just came and sealed off our jade mine."
"The jade mine has been shut down by the authorities? All the permits are in order, how could it be shut down?"
"They said our jade mine polluted the water source and forcibly shut it down."
Pollution of the water source? But they clearly took measures during the mining process, and there were dedicated personnel monitoring the water source every day, so there was no pollution of the water source.
How is this going?
"Mr. Qin, I understand. Don't worry too much. We will cooperate with the investigation and clear our names."
After the call ended, Yang Huirong asked Jiang Qianhui in confusion.
"Sui Sui, what happened?"
"The jade mine has been shut down."
Jiang Zhengguo frowned and said, "How could the jade mine be shut down? Old Qin has been in this business for forty or fifty years, and his jade mine has never had any problems. How could it be shut down now?"
Yang Huirong asked doubtfully, "Old Qin is a very influential person in the jade industry and has connections with government officials. His mines have never been shut down. Is it just a coincidence that they were shut down this time?"
Jiang Qianhui's eyes darkened: "It's clearly not a coincidence, but rather someone did it on purpose."
Yang Huirong said anxiously, "Is it Zhan Yanxun? Zhan Yanxun now has Hawke Casper's support, so he does have the ability to surpass diligence and get the authorities to shut down the jade mine."
Jiang Zhengguo said seriously, "I just thought he would retaliate, but I didn't expect him to act so quickly. We all have to be careful from now on."
"It's just a jade mine; it can't harm us."
Jiang Qianhui was trying to comfort her parents when her phone rang. It was Zhan Yanxun calling.
"Today is the day we announce our partnership with Hawke Casper, and we're having a cocktail party. As the CEO of the Zhan Group, aren't you coming?"
Zhan Yanxun's voice was languid, yet carried a hint of danger.
Jiang Qianhui gripped her phone tighter and said coldly, "President Zhan, I think you're just too forgetful. We're already divorced. It might not be appropriate for you to invite me over."
Zhan Yanxun said lazily, "We are divorced, but I haven't received your resignation. You are still the CEO of my Zhan Group. You should attend the cocktail party that the Zhan Group is cooperating with the Hawke Casper family."
What if I don't participate?
Jiang Qianhui actively restrained her emotions, while Zhan Yanxun coldly smiled and said, "Your jade mine will probably be sealed off indefinitely."
Jiang Qianhui was furious upon hearing this.
"Zhan Yanxun, it really was you. What's the point of doing this?"
Zhan Yanxun said in a sinister and cold tone, "How could it not be interesting? And if you don't come over right now, let me tell you, this is just the beginning. First it's the jade mine, next it's the Jiang Group, and your parents."
Jiang's parents are Jiang Qianhui's Achilles' heel.
"Where are you now?"
"Zhan Group, President's Office."
Yang Huirong said anxiously, "Sui Sui, Zhan Yanxun asked you to go over there, didn't he? You absolutely mustn't go!"
"Mom, don't worry, it's okay. I want to see what he's really up to."
……
Jiang Group
Jiang Qianhui never expected that she would come to this place again after her divorce from Zhan Yanxun.
Wu Ye was also very surprised to see Jiang Qianhui, as he thought he would not see her again at the Jiang Group.
"Madam, you are back."
Madam? Come back? Wu Ye's sentence consisted of only seven words, four of which were words she didn't want to hear.
“Assistant Wu, please stop calling me Madam. You can call me Miss Jiang. Also, this is not my place, and it is not appropriate to use the word ‘return’ to describe it.”
Because she felt it was unlucky!
Suddenly, Zhan Yanxun appeared amidst a biting wind. His handsome, aloof face and eyes, like stars in a winter night, possessed a languid yet deadly danger beneath their cold, clear light.
“We’ve only signed a divorce agreement, we haven’t officially gotten the divorce certificate yet, so it’s only right that I call you my wife. Besides, the Zhan family hasn’t received your resignation letter, so this is still your workplace, and it’s not wrong to say that you’ve come back.”
Jiang Qianhui didn't expect Zhan Yanxun to be interested in arguing with her about words. How come she never realized he was so boring before?
"Zhan Yanxun, don't go too far."
"That's going too far. How did I go too far?"
Zhan Yanxun suddenly wrapped one arm around Jiang Qianhui's waist and gripped her chin tightly with the other.
"You've gained weight in just a few days. You've gotten bigger around your waist and have a little belly."
