The Tempting Road to Becoming an Official

Chapter 414: Family Affection Warm as Spring


Tan Xiao felt a huge relief seeing the parts sold.

But when Feng Wenyu asked that question,

Her heart immediately leapt into her throat.

She instinctively looked towards Chen Fang.

Seeing her reaction, Chen Fang quickly stood up and said, "President Feng, you're worrying too much. We don't have to pay a penalty to Morrow Group. On the contrary, they owe us a penalty of thirty million."

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

Feng Wenyu angrily asked.

Chen Fang smiled slightly and said, "Of course, I know. When this order was initially signed, President Tan found an anomaly, which is why we decided not to produce Morrow Group's order."

"Anomaly? What anomaly?"

Feng Wenya continued to inquire.

Chen Fang turned to glance at Gao Younan.

Gao Younan took out a document from his bag.

Chen Fang waved the document in his hand and said, "This is a letter from the Sveiden Department of Commerce to President Tan. This company called Morrow Group is actually a shell company that lacks the qualifications to execute foreign trade orders. Moreover, all the materials they reported to the Sveiden Department of Commerce are false. Just over an hour ago, the Sveiden Department of Commerce has already ordered the company to close and has frozen all their payment accounts. Now whether we have the parts or not, they can't receive the shipment, so it's their turn to be in breach of contract."

"What are you saying?"

Feng Wenya said, surging forward in surprise,

And took the documents from Chen Fang's hands.

After all, she had been in charge of Gaoling Group for many years, and she could tell the authenticity of the Sveiden Department of Commerce's materials.

She was suddenly stunned.

She took a deep breath,

And quickly changed her attitude,

Saying, "Xiaoxiao, it seems that after so many years abroad, you've indeed learned quite a lot. Luckily, luckily, our group doesn't have to suffer losses this time."

Yang Feng also gave a wry smile,

And said, "Right, right, right, lucky indeed. We need to quickly inform Dad about this so he can rest easy. Xiaoxiao, since there's no issue here anymore, your aunt and I will head back first."

After speaking,

The couple exchanged glances,

And they were about to leave the scene,

When Chen Fang called out, "President Yang, wait a moment."

"Is there anything else?"

Yang Feng turned his head and frowned as he asked.

Chen Fang took another document from Gao Younan's hands,

And said, "This is an investigative report on Morrow Group. This report shows that Morrow Group's actual controller is named Yang Shan. This Yang Shan shares a name with President Yang's brother, doesn't he?"

As soon as these words were spoken,

Yang Feng's expression clearly tensed up.

He hesitated for a moment before saying, "There are many people with the same name. How could it possibly be my brother?"

Chen Fang smiled and said, "Then it seems we've made a mistake. Why don't we give this document to the Chairman? Let the old man investigate and find out who this Yang Shan, the person who set a trap for Gaoling Group, really is. I'm certain that with the Chairman's capabilities, he will definitely uncover the real culprit."

Yang Feng's complexion turned even grimmer,

And beads of sweat started to appear on his forehead.

This so-called Yang Shan was actually Yang Feng's brother.

The whole chain of plans was orchestrated by the couple with the aim to force Tan Xiao to make a mistake and leave.

In this way, they could swallow Gaoling Group's assets themselves.

They had thought that, no matter how capable Tan Xiao was, she would not be able to trace the real controller behind Morrow Group, but, unexpectedly, she had easily acquired all the evidence she needed.

Moreover, she managed to get the Sveiden Department of Commerce to take action and shut down the shell company Morrow Group. Her tactics were incredibly astute.

Inconceivable, truly inconceivable.

As things had developed to this point,

Even the naive Tan Xiao started to sense something was amiss.

She took the document from Chen Fang's hands, waved it at Yang Feng, and asked, "Uncle, should we give this document to Grandpa? Or should we have the people from Morrow Group compensate for the breach of contract? I just can't decide at the moment."

Sweat poured down like rain.

Yang Feng was at the peak of tension.

Feng Wenyu was no different.

After all, the two of them setting up Tan Xiao and causing the group to suffer losses was a major taboo. If Feng Liyan ever found out, they wouldn't just lose any claim to the inheritance, but they could also potentially be kicked out by the old master himself.

"Heh heh, Xiaoxiao, I think it's better to hold them responsible and have them pay a penalty. For such a small matter, let's not bother your grandfather about it."

Feng Wenyu, who had just been looking down from above.

Now hurried up to Tan Xiao's face.

Her tone of speaking had clearly been lowered a notch.

"I think what Auntie said is right, we shouldn't trouble grandfather with such a small matter. So, Auntie, could you do me a favor?"

Tan Xiao asked.

Feng Wenyu replied with trepidation, "We're all family, there's no such thing as who helps whom. Whatever it is, just tell me, and that's fine."

Tan Xiao nodded and said, "With Auntie's words, I feel so warm. Since that's the case, then I won't be polite. I'm not that familiar with Dowo Group. Could you please help me claim the compensation? It would be best if it could be in the account within three days, is that okay?"

Thirty million.

It wasn't a small sum.

Naturally, when it comes to claiming compensation, it meant she and Yang Feng had to cough up the money themselves.

It seemed they were resigned to swallowing this dumb loss.

Gritting her teeth and steeling her heart, she said, "Okay, Auntie will help you with this matter. But this document..."

Her hand reached out, trying to grasp the files Tan Xiao was holding.

Tan Xiao quickly avoided her reach.

She said, "This document, I think I'll hold on to it for the time being. Once the penalty fee is transferred, I'll give it to Auntie."

"Well... alright then."

What other choice did she have?

None!

Feng Wenyu had no choice but to clench her teeth and accept the situation.

Although both were resentful, they could only stomp their feet and leave the scene in anger.

For the workers, as long as they got paid, these so-called family feuds had nothing to do with them. After a lot of noise and commotion, they dispersed, and Gao Younan went to send off the person from Deep Blue Machinery.

Tan Xiao and Chen Fang stood on the steps, the atmosphere somewhat awkward, neither of them speaking.

"Thank you."

Finally, Tan Xiao said a cold word of thanks.

Chen Fang was about to speak.

Tan Xiao said, "The last time you helped me, you repaid the debt of my dad helping your parents take revenge. This time you've helped me, you've also repaid the debt of my dad raising you for ten years. From now on, we owe each other nothing."

Seeing her so heartless.

Chen Fang swallowed the words that had reached his lips.

"Alright, from now on, we owe each other nothing."

As he said this, Chen Fang's heart ached a bit.

Tan Xiao responded with a hum and then turned and left.

Chen Fang sighed deeply. At this moment, Gao Younan came back and, having seen the scene just now, indignantly said, "Ah Fang, how can that woman have no conscience? After all you've done for her, she actually..."

"Enough, no need to say more."

Chen Fang waved his hand, stopping Gao Younan's complaint.

He looked back and murmured, "After all, she's my godfather's only daughter; no matter how much I do, it's never too much..."

...

That very evening.

Wen'an City's Gold Cup Hotel.

Yang Feng walked into a private room with a woman.

Inside the room.

A man had been waiting already.

Upon seeing Yang Feng come in, he immediately stood up respectfully and greeted, "President Yang, it's good to see you."
