Chapter 545 Are you targeting me?

Chapter 545: Chapter 545 Are you targeting me?

"If I’m not mistaken, Xu Dong is merely the General Manager of Tianhui Construction Company,"

"And Tianhui Construction Company is just the contractor for Jinxiu City, not the developer, right?"

Chen Xuan looked at Guo Gongcheng with a leisurely and meaningful gaze.

Guo Gongcheng smiled proudly, "It seems like you’re also pretending to know things you don’t around here."

"Let me tell you, the entire Jinxiu City project was sold to Xu Dong a long time ago."

"Now, Tianhui Construction Company is not just the contractor of Jinxiu City, but also the developer!"

"So I say, Xu Dong is now the boss of Jinxiu City; do you have a problem with that?"

Having managed to circle back smoothly from his lie, Guo Gongcheng appeared very smug.

Chen Xuan smiled faintly, "No problem, I’m just very curious, when you discussed the acquisition with Xu Dong, how come I didn’t know about it?"

"You?" Guo Gongcheng scoffed, "What does it matter to you? Are you even qualified to know?"

Zhong Ling and Sun Jun both sneered repeatedly, thinking Chen Xuan was taking himself too seriously.

Finally, Han Jingting could not stand it anymore, "Of course he’s qualified to know, because, he is the owner of Tianhui Construction Company!"

"What?!" The smirk froze on Guo Gongcheng’s face.

Zhong Ling and Sun Jun were also completely stunned.

It took a while for Guo Gongcheng to come back to his senses and he let out a derisive laugh, "Just because he’s a live-in son-in-law, he dares to claim he’s the owner of Tianhui Construction Company? What a joke!"

Zhong Ling couldn’t believe it either, "Yeah, Jingting, have you gotten it wrong?"

Han Jingting’s expression was serious, "I’m not mistaken, Tianhui Construction Company has always been Chen Xuan’s, and Xu Dong is just working for Chen Xuan."

"Zhong Ling, this Guo Gongcheng keeps saying he’s going to buy the Jinxiu City project, yet he doesn’t even know who the real owner behind it is; don’t you find that very abnormal?"

"This..." Zhong Ling fell into deep thought.

Sun Jun and Gu Ruirui also exchanged glances, unsure of the current situation.

Guo Gongcheng’s face turned ugly, "What do you mean? Are you implying that I’m deceiving Zhong Ling?"

"You and this Chen Xuan are really a pair, both of you can’t stand to see others doing better than you, right?"

"Your mentality is indeed dark enough!"

Chen Xuan snorted coldly, "We’ll see who really has a dark mentality if we just prove it."

"You said that you’ve always been discussing the acquisition with Xu Dong, right? Call Xu Dong now, and we’ll see who’s lying," Chen Xuan challenged.

Han Jingting nodded, "That’s right, it’s a good idea! What do you say, Guo Gongcheng? Do you dare to try?"

Guo Gongcheng’s heart skipped a beat.

If they were so confident, could Chen Xuan genuinely be the owner of Tianhui Construction Company?

Even so, Guo Gongcheng, an experienced conman, wasn’t going to admit defeat easily.

"You’re joking, right? President Xu is such a busy man, busy all day long with important tasks, and now you want me to disturb him just to prove your ludicrous joke? That’s quite impolite!"

"I think you should stop this nonsense. I’m not going to make that call!" Guo Gongcheng declared with feigned moral superiority.

Chen Xuan snorted, "No problem, if you won’t call, I’ll do it for you!"

"What..."

Before Guo Gongcheng could react, Chen Xuan had already dialed Xu Dong’s number.

The call connected quickly, and as Chen Xuan put it on speakerphone, Xu Dong’s respectful voice came through.

"President Chen, may I ask what you need?"

Hearing Xu Dong’s respectful tone and him addressing Chen Xuan as President Chen, Zhong Ling and the others were taken aback.

Could it be that Chen Xuan really was the owner of Tianhui Construction Company now?

"Nothing much, just that there’s someone named Guo Gongcheng here saying that he’s recently been discussing the acquisition of the Jinxiu City project with you. I was wondering if that’s true or false?" Chen Xuan asked.

Xu Dong’s voice immediately became stern, "Nonsense! Who is Guo Gongcheng? I’ve never even heard of this person!"

"Besides, even if it’s about an acquisition, I would have to discuss it with President Chen. How could I possibly have that authority!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Guo Gongcheng with suspicious eyes.

"What do you have to say now?"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xuan looked at Guo Gongcheng with great interest.

Guo Gongcheng had been walking through the jianghu for many years and had seen many big scenes, but even he was a bit nervous now.

Being called out on the spot in a live connection was something Guo Gongcheng didn’t anticipate.

"I... I might have remembered it wrong. The acquisition I discussed before was with President Dong from Jianke Real Estate..."

Guo Gongcheng had no choice but to change his statement again, trying to muddle through.

However, just as he finished speaking, Chen Xuan dialed Dong Jianke’s number again.

"No problem, I also have Dong Jianke’s number right here. Do you need me to call him now?"

Guo Gongcheng: "..."

Guo Gongcheng was almost going crazy.

He had been scamming for many years and had never been caught so badly before.

I say who I’ve discussed the acquisition with, and you have their number, what’s the deal, are you targeting me or what?!

At this point, Guo Gongcheng naturally didn’t dare to call Dong Jianke again. He had to resort to another tactic.

"President Chen, what do you mean? I invite you all over for a nice meal, and you keep doubting me time and again?"

"Zhong Ling, what kind of friends are you making?"

"I drive luxury cars, live in villas, and own such a huge holiday hotel. Am I having trouble finding a girlfriend, that I need to lie to you?"

"You deliberately bring these people over just to disgust me, don’t you?"

Guo Gongcheng, realizing he had been exposed, now attempted to turn defense into a counter-attack with his desperate demeanor.

Sure enough, when Zhong Ling heard what Guo Gongcheng said, she immediately became anxious, "Gongcheng, you’ve misunderstood, that’s not what I meant..."

"What do you mean it’s not what you meant! Forget it, since you doubt me so much, I think we don’t need to get married."

"Let’s just break up!"

With that, Guo Gongcheng got up and left without another word.

"Gongcheng! Gongcheng!" Zhong Ling was stunned.

At the same time, Zhong Ling was also seething with anger.

"Jingting, what the hell are you guys doing? Can’t you stand to see me happy?!"

In Zhong Ling’s eyes, it was all because of Han Jingting and Chen Xuan that Guo Gongcheng broke up with her.

It was all because of them that she missed out on that carefree life of a wealthy lady!

"Zhong Ling, listen to me..."

Han Jingting wanted to explain, but Zhong Ling didn’t wait to hear it and chased after Guo Gongcheng.

Sun Jun was also very dissatisfied, "Han Jingting, both you and your husband really, what great person Brother Guo is, and you target him right from the start. I think you did it on purpose, didn’t you?"

"You keep saying you’re Zhong Ling’s good friends, but in the end, that’s how you sabotage someone else’s marriage, isn’t it?"

"Your jealousy as a couple is just too strong!"

Sun Jun shook his head in disappointment.

He had been thinking of clinging to Guo Gongcheng’s coattails, but now because of Han Jingting and Chen Xuan’s offence, his opportunity was completely lost, naturally leaving Sun Jun extremely displeased.

Not just him, even Gu Ruirui couldn’t help but sigh, also disappointed with what Han Jingting and Chen Xuan had done.

Han Jingting felt wronged in her heart; she was clearly well-intentioned, worrying that her good sister would be deceived, so why did it end up being her fault?!
