As Nie Yunfan was saying this, he stretched out his hand to catch Xu Huaining, Xu Huaining hurriedly avoided him. His face had turned as white as a sheet. He said hesitantly, “Heavily indebted? Haven’t you all repaid the debts? How is this possible? How can you not repay the debts yet? How can he.
enjoy freedom as if nothing had happened? If not… he would have long…”
“He would have long been sent to jail, right?” The hint of mockery in Nie Yunfan’s eyes grew increasingly prominent. “So, you are aware that if one fails to return the debts, he will be sent to jail, right? Then, why did you still abscond with the money, leaving Chen alone? Did you want him to be put behind
the bars?”
“L.. I don’t…”
“You don’t what? Hah! Didn’t you say that Chen has no money and is only a poor fellow? How can a poor fellow possibly repay such a massive debt?” Nie Yunfan sneered, “I know what’s in your mind. You must have used up all the money and thought that the incident must have been settled after so long.
You assumed that Chen had either returned all the debts, or been put behind the bars. Regardless, it has nothing to do with you as long as the incident has been settled. As such, you can return and do anything you desire without any pressure. Am I right?”
“L.” Xu Huaining’s expression kept changing. The next moment, he seemed like he had understood something, His eyes sank. “Well, stop threatening me. I know that the massive debt of the Sheng Shi Group had been settled. You can’t deceive me.”
Nie Yunfan cocked one of his eyebrows and thought to himself. ‘It looks like this guy is not as stupid as I’d expected.”
Just then, Han Yichen, who had been watching everything by the side, abruptly blurted out the words, “So?”
Xu Huaining’s anger was once again invoked upon hearing what Han Yichen had said. His face contorted into absolute savagery. “So what? How shameless can you be to ask me this? Don’t go around thinking that I’m not aware that you two have set me up! Both of you have used the Sheng Huang Group to
set me up and take over the Sheng Shi Group. The two of you are robbers! Traitors!”
As Xu Huaining was saying this, he wanted to lunge at Han Yichen once again. However, he was stopped by the two quick-witted bodyguards, who had been standing by the side.
Nie Yunfan’s face tumed dark. The way he stared at Xu Huaining was akin to staring at an idiot. “Chen and I set you up, huh? Hah! Do you think you are worthy of the two of us having to go to such great lengths just to set you up?”
“Nie Yunfan, you
“What’s with me? Was I wrong?” Nie Yunfan let out a bark of laughter without hesitation. “You’re right. Chen and you are the ones who had started the Sheng Shi Group. To be precise, it’s me, Chen, and you who have started the Sheng Shi Group. However, I pulled out half way. Do you want to know why I
pulled out at that moment?”
“It’s all because you are ambitious. The Sheng Shi Group is only a small company and is too small to accommodate someone as capable as you.”
“Hahah…!” Nie Yunfan covered his face and burst into laughter. “I’m ambitious?! Xu Huaining, that’s so brave of you to have the guts to say that! Let me tell you, the reason I have retreated was because I couldn’t bear to stand with you anymore! Xu Huaining, reflect on yourself! Aside from contributing the
capital to the company at the beginning, what else have you contributed to the company? The moment the Sheng Shi Group began to prosper, you asked for money from Chen under the guise of all sorts of excuses. Once you got the money, you spent it on your own entertainment, slept with women, and
in the end, you have even absconded with the company’s public fund!”
Xu Huaining’s expression changed upon hearing Nie Yunfan’s words. He said in a panic, “You… You are spewing nonsense!”
“Lam spewing nonsense, huh?” Nie Yunfan sneered at him. He looked into Xu Huaining’s eyes and enunciated each and every word clearly at him. “I didn’t spew nonsense. You know it very well yourself. At the early stage of the company start-up, Chen and I are the only ones who strived our best to.
achieve excellent results for the business. You, on the other hand, often looked for various excuses to skip work and be absent from work. By the time the company’s performance was stable, you returned to us and acted as if you had been through the ups and downs with us. In the end, when the
company’s performance began to rise, you embezzled the public fund from the shadows. On top of that, you even assigned several kith and kin of yours to join the company because you were afraid that your actions would be discovered. You had your relatives to help you embezzle the company’s money
and use it for your own good. Do you think that Chen and I were not aware of all this?”
Xu Huaining’s complexion kept changing. In the end, his expression tumed black. “Since you are aware of it, why didn’t you stop me and have others work to expose my deed?”
A smile arched across Nie Yunfan’s face. “I intended to do so. Unfortunately, Chen was kind enough to advise me to give you a chance out of his sympathy on account that you are our “friend” who started up the business with us together. He told me that once the incident was exposed, your reputation
would be tainted and your professional life is bound to be restricted in the future. I showed my honor to him and spared you. However, I could no longer stay in this company anymore. I’m afraid that the longer I stay on, the more I want to strike you the moment I see your annoying face. As a result, I left
the company and set up another company.”
As Nie Yunfan was saying this, he gave a profound glance at Xu Huaining. There was an obvious hint of mockery in Nie Yunfan’s eyes. “However, I’d never expected that Chen’s kindness would become the reason for you to go overboard. After I left the company, you became more outrageous and even
absconded with the company’s public funds. Chen was truly disappointed with you. However, at that moment, it was already too late. The company was filled with your spies. As a result, the company was turned into a turmoil all of a sudden because of you! Despite the fact that Chen still held the majority
of the control over the company’s resources, it was already too late. Chen had already predicted the Sheng Shi Group’s future and so, he had already forked most of his capital and invested in the Sheng Huang Group with me three years ago.”
As Nie Yunfan was saying this, he looked away, refusing to give another glance at Xu Huaining’s contorted expression, as if it would only dirty his eyes if he gave him another look.
“Fortunately, Chen is a capable man. He was able to drag on for another one and a half years before the barely surviving company was finally declared bankrupt. If I were in Chen’s shoes, I would have given up on it. At the end of the day and at the very last minute, you even absconded with the money
Sob…”
Xu Huaining’s expression turned white under Nie Yunfan’s aggressive words. He leaned on the hospital’s wall for a long time before he laughed, and his laughter slowly tuned into a burst of hysterical laughter.
By the time he finished laughing, his expression grew increasingly contorted. “Stop making it sound so noble. You accused me of being the one who had absconded with the money, how was Han Yichen better than I? If he hadn’t used the company’s money, a poor fellow like him, who could not even afford
a computer in university days, could not possibly have the capital to invest in the Sheng Shi Group. You are right. I’ve taken the company’s money. So what? I was the major shareholder in the company. It’s my right to spend the company’s money. It’s not against the law. I didn’t blame Han Yichen for
taking the money from the company just like me.. So, who are you two, who are no different from me, to have the right to rebuke me?”
