Chapter 297: Chapter 180 Guo Mengyao’s Trouble_2

After taking care of that matter, he went to the big city to indulge all the way, buying luxury goods left and right, staying in five-star hotels, and being surrounded by fine wine, food, and women. In just two or three days, he blew through most of the money left after repaying his debt.

It was evidently going to be very difficult for Hong Yongming to recover this money.

Chen Feng didn’t expect that after Hong Yongming had threatened him that night, he would encounter such a situation. He was a bit surprised, but also found it somewhat amusing.

After talking with Wu Mengting for over ten minutes, Chen Feng went on to read other messages.

There was a message from Hong Xiaodan, whom he knew from Tianzhou. She said she wanted to come to Lu City to play and asked if he could be a guide.

This message was sent over an hour ago. Chen Feng was just now taking a closer look at it. Initially, he didn’t want to bother, but thinking of his aunt, he typed a reply: "I’m very busy these days, no time."

Under normal circumstances, such an obvious refusal should be understood by the other party.

But Hong Xiaodan responded immediately: "Then when do you have time?"

Seeing this, Chen Feng felt a bit helpless and replied directly: "No time at all. After the fifteenth, I’ll be going to Xiu Zhou."

Hong Xiaodan sent an astonished emoji, then texted: "That’s too bad."

Seeing this, Chen Feng couldn’t be bothered to respond to her and continued to check other unread messages. Little girl Qin Xiaorou also left him a message, asking when he would return to Xiu Zhou. Chen Feng replied that it would probably be after the fifteenth.

Lastly, there was a message from Xiao Ya saying that the milk tea shop had officially opened today. She mentioned that business was quite good so far and attached several photos of the milk tea shop, both inside and outside.

It seemed that business was indeed booming, with the entrance crowded with customers.

Chen Feng was always a man of his word. He had promised to invest in Xiao Ya’s milk tea shop and indeed kept his promise. He even had his proxy lawyer sign a joint venture agreement to open the shop with her, making it quite official.

He invested five hundred thousand in the milk tea shop, Xiao Ya put in two hundred thousand, along with her technical equity without counting salary,

resulting in Chen Feng holding 40% of the shares and Xiao Ya holding 60%.

This share distribution scheme was definitely a bit unfair to Chen Feng.

But Chen Feng really didn’t care much about the money and shares.

After all, Xiao Ya had been with him for a while, and later he broke up with her. Although it was a fair transaction, Chen Feng did not feel like he owed her.

But they had shared a bed numerous times, and now that Chen Feng didn’t lack money, it seemed natural to support her a bit. With Chen Feng’s investment and Xiao Ya’s efforts, her milk tea shop finally opened, and she, of course, had to notify Chen Feng.

After reading her message, Chen Feng sent her a motivational emoji.

A few minutes later, Chen Feng received a smiling emoji from her.

At this time, Chen Feng also received a sighing emoji from Qin Xiaorou.

After seeing it, he did not respond and continued to browse the news.

After another ten minutes or so, Guo Mengyao finally finished her work, stood up, and said to Chen Feng: "Sorry to keep you waiting. Bored?"

"Got my phone, so I’m not bored." Chen Feng raised the phone in his hand.

"Why don’t you keep waiting then? I’ve just taken over this factory, and there’s really a lot to handle on my end."

Chen Feng gave her a somewhat speechless look.

Guo Mengyao chuckled seeing this: "Just teasing you. Work is important, but so is rest. I understand that much."

"So you’re done now? How about I treat you to a meal?"

Guo Mengyao looked at her watch and said: "It’s still early, not even four o’clock."

Chen Feng said: "We’ll reach the county by then."

Guo Mengyao readily nodded: "Alright then. Where shall we eat?"

"You’re more familiar with the county than I am. You decide."

Guo Mengyao thought for a moment and said: "Let’s go to Old Li Slope. Have you heard of Old Li Slope restaurant in City South? Their beef soup is exceptional."

Chen Feng had indeed heard of it, but never had the chance to visit, so he nodded in agreement.

So, after a little tidying up, Guo Mengyao left the factory with Chen Feng, and each drove to Old Li Slope in City South.

It wasn’t mealtime yet, so there weren’t many customers in the restaurant. They ordered some dishes, and they were served up quickly.

The two chatted and laughed, enjoying their meal, when Guo Mengyao received a call and her expression suddenly changed, losing her smile.

"What’s wrong?" Chen Feng asked with concern.

Guo Mengyao, slightly somber, said: "Remember Xue Jun? The one who was with me at the hotel reunion."

Chen Feng nodded: "I remember. What about him?"

Guo Mengyao, looking distraught, said: "He wants to withdraw his shares, or else he will use his position as the second-largest shareholder to file a lawsuit in court to dissolve the company."

Chen Feng asked in surprise: "How many shares does he have? Does he have the right to dissolve the company?"

Guo Mengyao, slightly somber, said: "He has 30% of the shares. If he proposes to withdraw his shares and I can’t buy them back, he has the right to apply to the court to dissolve our company. Once the company is dissolved, he can liquidate our assets and take back the part corresponding to his shares."

Chen Feng asked puzzledly: "Why would he do that? Doesn’t he have faith in your move to relocate the company here?"

Guo Mengyao shook her head: "Quite the opposite. He places great confidence in the company’s future development. His aim is to take advantage of the fact that I can’t come up with so much money at once to repurchase his shares, thereby squeezing me out of the company."

"Wow! That guy is really treacherous. He only has 30% of the shares, how can he push you out? You are the major shareholder, you should have control, right?"

Guo Mengyao smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I own 45% of the shares, and there’s a third shareholder, Sister Li, with the remaining 25%. She’s a local from Guang City, and she was against moving the company to my hometown from the beginning. But Xue Jun and I both agreed, so she couldn’t do much. She had also expressed her desire to exit earlier, wanting us to buy back her shares. Unfortunately, the price hadn’t been agreed upon, and I don’t have that much capital on hand. Now, it seems highly likely that Xue Jun has reached some sort of tacit understanding or collusion with Sister Li to oust me together."

Chen Feng, not being dumb, quickly realized the crux of the issue, and immediately said: "Then you should contact Sister Li right away and persuade her over."

Guo Mengyao nodded, picked up the phone, found Sister Li’s number, and dialed it.

After a while, the call finally connected.

"Sister Li, I’ll buy your shares, at the price you mentioned last time."

As soon as the phone connected, Guo Mengyao said bluntly.

The other party paused for a moment, then said awkwardly: "Mengyao, Xue Jun also agreed to buy back my shares at my price,

and I already promised him first."

Guo Mengyao frowned, stayed quiet for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said: "I’ll add another hundred."

"Mengyao, it’s not about being disagreeable, but about being honest, you know?"

"Two hundred!" Guo Mengyao gritted her teeth again.

"... Three hundred then. We’ve been sisters for so many years, I definitely lean a little more towards you."

"... Alright! We’ll sign the contract tonight. I’ll contact you when I’m in Guang City."

After saying that, Guo Mengyao, with a face full of displeasure, hung up the phone.
