CHAPTER 630: CHAPTER 376: EXCLUSION AND REGRET

Extremely furious, Lian Fengnan called Qiao Dongsong and accused him of having found support behind Moselle Family’s back.

Qiao Dongsong, feeling helpless, told him that he was also unclear about the origins of Yihua International Investment Company that had just timely injected funds.

How could Qiao Dongsong claim ignorance under such circumstances? Wasn’t that plainly lying? Lian Fengnan roared and slammed the phone down.

In fact, Lian Fengnan had wronged Qiao Dongsong; why Yihua International invested was something entirely unclear to the Qiao Family.

Originally fully mentally prepared and waiting to receive Lian Fengnan’s revenge, before any action started, Old Master Qiao received a call from Lian Shengnan, president of Yihua Investment.

The other party directly told Old Master Qiao that they had received the latest news that Moselle was withdrawing investment from China. What a coincidence, Yihua International wanted to invest in China. They could seize this opportunity for a beachhead landing, with terms completely identical to previous conditions, and the funds would be immediately injected when Moselle withdrew their capital.

This unexpected pie falling from the sky, Old Master Qiao naturally didn’t dare to catch. He couldn’t just climb out of one pit to jump into an even deeper one, could he?

The other party seemed to fully understand his feelings and proactively offered him time to think it over; he could contact Yihua at any time to discuss cooperation.

Not long after hanging up, Qiao Aimin, who had just finished his divorce procedures, came back. Father and son discussed and decided to discuss it together with the second brother and Fourth while they were still around.

Second brother and Fourth quickly arrived at Qiao Mansion. After hearing about the situation from the old master, they were also somewhat confused. The whole thing was too peculiar. The Qiao Family had just gotten their hands on Qiao Aimin and Lian Qinghua’s divorce certificate and were still unclear about the whole affair - how could Yihua International be so well-informed?

But, just to flat-out reject the other party felt unbearable. Eventually, they unanimously decided to utilize their contacts to investigate Yihua’s background.

The data showed that Yihua’s boss was a man named Si Jiayi of Chinese descent. Yihua’s investments included finance, logistics, software, textiles, and other industries, covering countries like France, England, the United States, and Germany. It had a very good reputation, being a high-quality investment company.

The problem was, just with these data alone, the Qiao Family wouldn’t dare to accept this pie. But by the time they finished a thorough investigation and then start cooperation, the projects from which Moselle had withdrawn would suffer huge losses.

With no alternative, Qiao Dongsong had to thick-skinnedly seek help from his old friend, Minister of National Security, Yao Li, who half an hour later called Qiao Dongsong back with only a short sentence: "Old buddy, you can accept it." He refused to say anything more.

Qiao Dongsong understood that even this sentence gave him great face; he would not trouble his old friend if it wasn’t absolutely necessary.

Thus, the Qiao Family somewhat muddled through and accepted the assistance from Yihua International. During the negotiations, they did ask the president of Yihua why they offered assistance. The other party officially replied that it was just a normal cooperation beneficial for both sides and asked not to overthink it.

Not overthink? Could they? If it wasn’t for the reassurance from Yao Li, they would have really worried about letting the wolf into the house.

Fortunately, everything that unfolded showed that Yihua International truly had no ill intentions; their objective seemed genuinely to expand their domestic business through this opportunity.

Actually, as the mastermind behind the scenes, the Four Families didn’t intend to be enigmatic. Lian Fengnan’s personality was too arrogant and eccentric. For Luo Ye’s safety, they had to adopt this secure method.

Thus, when Lian Fengnan came to inquire about Qiao Dongsong’s new support, Qiao Dongsong’s evasive yet truthful reply seemed very much like lying, and Lian Fengnan’s anger was imaginable.

Originally holding a glimmer of hope, Lian Qinghua, seeing her father’s violent demeanor, felt her heart cool down. If Moselle Family’s actions against the Qiao Family failed, how could Qiao Aimin willingly ask her to return?

She truly regretted it now, feeling like she had tried to steal a chicken only to lose the rice it ate, cleverly outsmarted by her own cleverness..., and not just a little, but completely.

"Thinking they can use this opportunity to drive us out of the domestic market, it won’t be that easy." Lian Fengnan quickly calmed down, immediately notifying the person in charge of Moselle’s various domestic regions, to cancel the withdrawal talks of the unwithdrawn investment projects. The cooperation must continue!
