This was the first time Xiao Jin had seen Quan Jingzhou in such a wretched state.

Oh wait, that wasn’t entirely true. Previously, Quan Jingzhou had been in an equally wretched state because of Quan Jue.

However, what grudge did Yan Zhengchen and the others have against Sir that they had to trick him like this?

This matter was very problematic. From the beginning, Quan Jingzhou did not promise the five families any real money as part of the deal. He only promised to put their names on the bridge.

The contract was only about an empty title on the bridge. Even if they sued them for breaking the contract, the five families couldn’t possibly be required to compensate them financially. At most, they just had to issue an apology.

On top of that, if they brought this matter to court, others would know that the Quan Corporation no longer had any money. This would greatly reduce the Quan Corporation’s reputation. They had no way of pursuing the matter!

“These brats came prepared. They were prepared to trick me from the beginning.” Quan Jingzhou’s eyes were turbulent as he gritted his teeth.

He couldn’t understand. He really couldn’t understand what grudge those brats had against him.

“Sir, do you want to talk to their parents? They might give you face and perhaps things will turn around,” Xiao Jin suggested.

Quan Jingzhou rubbed his temples and said worriedly, “Think of a way to arrange it and see if there’s a suitable opportunity. But the most important thing now is to settle the project funds. How much money did the five families invest in us? Have we spent it all?”

“The project has just begun. We didn’t use much money. The five families gave us a little more than a billion yuan. So far, we only used the funds to buy Feng Ting Company shares,” Xiao Jin explained.

“We have no time to care about Quan Jue’s company now! Where’s Fu Shangchen? Get him to sell all of the shares immediately! Convert them into cash and use that to support the project for a few days so that we can have some time to recover.” Quan Jingzhou punched the table angrily. “Those brats better not let me get a chance to make a move. I won’t let them off no matter what!”

Xiao Jin quickly nodded and went out to find Fu Shangchen.

At the same time, Yan Zhengchen and the others took the elevator to the underground parking lot.

When they reached their sports car, they immediately saw Fu Shangchen standing in front of it.

Fu Shangchen seemed to have been waiting there for a long time. Seeing them, he smiled and bowed. “Hello, ladies and gentlemen. My name is Fu Shangchen. I’m the general manager of Mr. Quan Jue’s company.”

Yan Qingqing looked at him with a faint smile and asked, “Mr. Fu is the general manager of Feng Ting Company. Why aren’t you at Feng Ting Company but at the Quan Corporation?”

“Although you have been very generous in helping us, Mr. Quan felt that it was not enough, so he asked me to be a business spy,” Fu Shangchen answered frankly.

“Are you business spies all so arrogant? Aren’t you afraid of being overheard?” Shen Liao raised his eyebrows.

“My work is done. I’m leaving the Quan Corporation now, so it’s alright. In addition, this is a gift from my boss to everyone. Take it as a thank you for your help. Please do me the honor of accepting it.” Fu Shangchen handed over the gifts he had prepared.

The number of gifts matched the number of people in the group perfectly. It was obvious that Quan Jue knew them like the back of his hand.
