Chapter 32: A Dowry for My Wife
The men wanted to finish quickly, they approached her with wooden sticks in their hands.
Lin Banxia, holding a bag of sweet potatoes, looked at these people with ill intentions and guessed:
“Yang Yiming’s people? How much did you get paid to do this for him? Did you get the money? I’m warning you, he’s a pauper now, Lin Group is about to go bankrupt.”
She couldn’t catch anything in their eyes, she quickly looked around, then took two steps back.
At this moment, a Lamborghini was also driving towards them… Zhan Jingting happened to see this scene.
He looked closely, it was his wife, what was she doing here?
Shouldn’t she be at home?
He slammed on the brakes, Zhan Jingting quickly got out of the car, instinctively running towards her!
Just as those people swung their sticks at Banxia, “Stop!” Zhan Jingting’s voice came, directly scaring them.
The moment the few men froze at the sound, Zhan Jingting stepped forward, directly clamping the wrist of one of them, and with a sudden flip, threw him heavily to the ground!
“Ah—” The man was caught off guard by the fall.
Lin Banxia was also stunned, he appeared out of nowhere! Like a great hero.
Seeing this, the other three swung their sticks at Zhan Jingting, making Lin Banxia’s chest tighten, “Be careful!” She was clutching her heart.
But obviously, her worry was unnecessary.
Because Zhan Jingting’s skills were truly amazing, he just swept his leg, tripping two of them!
Another elbow strike hit the back of the other one! He staggered a few steps, howling in pain.
As these people realized they had met a tough guy and fled in panic, Lin Banxia calmly looked around, she saw Lin Yiyao hiding behind the van not far away!
When their eyes met, Lin Yiyao turned and ran!
And Lin Banxia didn’t chase after her, she was just thinking, where was she targeted? From the moment she left the villa?
So, she knew where she and the children lived?
Zhan Jingting helped her repel the enemy, and when he came to her, she came back to her senses and looked up at him.
At this time, a blinding car light shone over!
“Be careful!” Lin Banxia instinctively pulled his tie, Zhan Jingting leaned against her, and hugged her, a car that lost control brushed past his back!
Neither of them was injured, but it was very dangerous!
Zhan Jingting turned his head, looking at the car speeding away. His face was pale, and he was momentarily dazed.
The feeling this near-death experience gave him… made his blood boil.
“Are you okay?” Banxia stared at his profile, seeing a hint of vulnerability and sadness on his face, as if he was scared, or as if some painful memory had been stirred.
“Jingting…” she called his name again softly.
The man slowly came back to his senses, meeting the girl’s concerned gaze. “…” He didn’t say anything, but he called his men.
Then he put his arm around her shoulder, “Let’s go home.” He led her to the passenger seat of the Lamborghini.
As he bent down to fasten her seatbelt, he said to her, “Someone will come to get your car later.”
But Lin Banxia felt that his mood was different from usual, as if he wanted to escape.
Then, Zhan Jingting sat in the driver’s seat, “Do you know who tried to attack you?”
Lin Banxia handed him the broken sweet potato, “Try some?” The scent of baked sweet potato filled the car.
This girl’s heart was really strong!
Zhan Jingting looked at her, his gaze falling on the soft, sweet baked sweet potato in front of him. He had never eaten it before, but it smelled delicious.
He reached out and took it, taking a bite, then looked at her and asked, “Why did you come out alone?”
Lin Banxia took a bite of the sweet potato, sat up straight, “I was sending a friend. I saw it was Lin Yiyao who ordered it, Yang Yiming’s illegitimate daughter.”
“I wanted to give you a gift.” Something flashed in Zhan Jingting’s eyes, but his tone was calm, “I’ll give you a surprise tomorrow afternoon.”
What was this about? The topic change was too… abrupt!
“Just drive.” Lin Banxia leaned back in her chair, “I don’t need anything.” She suddenly felt tired, “Thank you for taking us in.” She looked out the window, eating the sweet potato.
“Wife, that’s a bit too formal!”
Actually, she wanted to say thank you for taking in Uncle Ming, after all, he was a patient, and most people would think it was bad luck. But at this moment, she didn’t want to explain anymore.
That night, someone really tried to set fire to the Su Lin Mansion. Fortunately, Zhan Jingting was prepared.
His men were waiting outside with the police, and they directly caught the people who were about to do it. They were taken to the police station. One person managed to escape.
Hearing that the plan had failed, Yang Yiming felt like he had tripped over his own feet. He was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he was helpless.
“When did this girl’s anti-reconnaissance awareness become so strong?” Yang Yiming felt that she must have been guided by someone behind the scenes. As long as Lin Banxia didn’t die, he would become more and more uneasy.
If it was found out that he was the ultimate mastermind behind this, he would be going to jail!
The next morning.
The assistant called Yang Yiming, and his heart sank, thinking something terrible had happened. “Speak,” he said, his voice tense as he answered the call.
“Mr. Yang, Assistant Mu called. He said that after careful consideration, Mr. Zhan has decided to meet with you. He seems willing to invest.”
“What?!” The cunning old fox instantly woke up. “Arrange a meeting! Quickly! I’ll be right there!” He saw a lifeline. He quickly got dressed and rushed to the club. This time, he had to hold on to the young master Zhan’s leg no matter what!
When he saw Zhan Jing-ting, Yang Yiming couldn’t hide his smile. “Mr. Zhan, Mr. Zhan, I’ve kept you waiting.” It was like a dream come true.
“Mr. Yang, didn’t you sleep well last night?” Zhan Jing-ting noticed his dark circles, as he brewed tea and asked.
“No, no, I slept well, I slept well.” Yang Yiming was excited and got straight to the point. “Mr. Zhan, my company has some recent financial problems. Could you please help us out? It would be a small favor to help us through this difficult time. I, Yang, will never forget your kindness.”
“I want 40% of the shares.” Zhan Jing-ting took a sip of tea and looked at him calmly. “Junsheng Group is willing to invest. Once I become a shareholder of your company, I will certainly do my best.”
Yang Yiming was stunned. Why did he want shares? How could he possibly care about these small shares of Lin’s company?
He wouldn’t even want the whole company.
“Of course, Mr. Yang, you can think it over carefully. You don’t have to answer me right away.” Zhan Jing-ting’s low voice carried an unyielding authority.
Yang Yiming knew that since he brought it up, even if he didn’t want to give it, he had to.
Besides, if Mr. Zhan was a major shareholder of Lin’s Group, he could brag in the financial circle.
It wasn’t a bad thing at all.
“Good!” Yang Yiming readily agreed and immediately asked his assistant to draft a share transfer agreement.
Zhan Jing-ting sat in the armchair, signing the document. With the shares in hand, he could give them to his wife as a dowry.
That girl didn’t lack anything, but she would definitely love these 40% shares.
