Chapter 534 Exchange Conditions
Chapter 534: Chapter 534 Exchange Conditions
He had already dispatched mercenaries, but it was uncertain when they would encounter the situation.
Just then, Hans received a phone call, and his assistant promptly handed it to him. Hans’s eyes bulged as he lowered his voice, saying it was a call from Venom Fang.
Hans felt a tremor in his chest and hurriedly took the phone.
A moment later, he put the phone down and then angrily punched the desk with his fist.
Venom Fang said he had detained the ship, but assured Hans not to worry; he would absolutely not harm Kurt Gymm or any of the others, not even a hair on their heads. They were all enjoying a vacation on his island.
There was no choice, he didn’t want to cause trouble with the Gymm family, but his opponents were too powerful. If he didn’t agree, he wouldn’t be able to protect his own lair.
The cargo was en route to the Dragon Kingdom; the Gymm family was helping the Dragon Kingdom. So, it wasn’t too much to ask the Dragon Kingdom to exchange Dongfang Hong’s core technology for mutual development, right?
He was waiting for the good news on a distant island.
And then he let Hans hear Kurt’s voice.
His son was angry but calm, reported his safety, and before he could say anything else, he was taken away.
Hans didn’t hear his son’s voice again; he must have been gagged and forcefully taken away.
Hans clenched his teeth in anger.
If this had been about money, it would have been easy to handle, but they wanted Dongfang Hong from the Dragon Kingdom.
This wasn’t a small matter; the implications were massive.
If the Dragon Kingdom didn’t agree, and his son met with misfortune, the Gymm family would feel chilled by the Dragon Kingdom’s indifference.
Wouldn’t he harbor resentment himself?
But then again, exchanging goods voluntarily was a matter of choice. The Gymm family wasn’t altruistically dedicated; every item the Dragon Kingdom traded was of fine quality, and they also had profits to consider. Why should Venom Fang use this to barter?
He just wanted to conduct his business peacefully.
But if the Dragon Kingdom agreed, to just hand over such world-leading technology?
Then the debt of gratitude owed by his Gymm family would be immense.
Everything they had done before and now would be for naught.
What could his Gymm family offer to repay?
The person behind this was truly malicious, aiming to kill two birds with one stone.
Who could it be?
The Gudel Group perhaps?
Hans felt his guess might be right.
Not having secured false leave, Song Yunuan had no choice but to return to class.
But halfway through the course, she was called away by Principal Xu.
This class was Teacher Lin’s lecture.
Sitting at the back, Song Yunuan was preparing to research information on the Sanjia Strait, nearby islands, and pirates.
If Venom Fang was active there, his lair surely wouldn’t be too far away, or perhaps even his recent base wouldn’t be far.
Another point was that Song Yunuan really believed in the power of the plot, just as she believed in her own abilities.
Sometimes, she wondered what she had gone through during those missing five years, feeling as if she might be quite capable.
Of course, now was not the time to dwell on this.
Song Yunuan was studying the material with great focus.
She was also hoping to trigger a plot development from images or text.
Regardless of whether it triggered anything, she was set to depart tomorrow.
She had decided to go.
Shen Kexin and Chen Aijuan, both from her dorm, sat in the first row with Bian Haiying. When Song Yunuan said she wanted to sit at the back, Bian Haiying immediately pulled the other two to the front.
Song Yunuan couldn’t be bothered with her petty thoughts.
It seemed that Bian Haiying was using those two as shields, but since Song Yunuan was better looking, jealousy probably drove Bian not to want Song Yunuan taking the spotlight next to her.
Song Yunuan was visited by the secretary of the Principal’s office; after all, since it was during class, there had to be a good reason to interrupt the teacher.
Lin Han, who was interrupted, was not very pleased, yet since the visitor was a secretary from the school office, he let him in to find someone.
The person he was looking for was called Song Yunuan, hmm, this student’s academic performance was good, she had a beautiful handwriting in fountain pen, and her assignments were completed very well, her prose flowed so smoothly that it was beyond reproach.
The only deficit was the lack of romance and aestheticism.
It could be related to her being younger.
She didn’t, like other female students, always come to him with questions.
Lin Han let her go outside in a gentle manner.
Song Yunuan thanked him and then walked out with the secretary.
Bian Haiying clenched her hands, what exactly was Song Yunuan up to, why did she always seem so busy?
The man was a secretary from the school office, whom she recognized. She had seen him when she went to see Teacher Lin, and only knew he was Principal Xu’s secretary after hearing others mention it, purportedly a relative of the Gu family, no wonder he could be a secretary for the principal at such a young age, it must be a training opportunity given by his family.
But why did he come in person to find Song Yunuan?
Did something happen to Song Yunuan?
It must be a significant issue; to minimize the impact, they discreetly took her away.
So, what serious trouble did Song Yunuan get into?
She was so pretty and claimed to come from a small place, yet she enjoyed the very best of attire and accessories.
Bian Haiying’s heart jumped; maybe Song Yunuan was the mistress of some wealthy and powerful tycoon, otherwise, how could she afford to be so generous?
The look on Bian Haiying’s face turned somewhat disdainful; if that was indeed the case, then everything made sense.
Hmph, acting all innocent and naive, but who would’ve thought she’d commit such a disgusting act.
Thinking about it, though her grades were good, coming from a poor family and a small town, seeing the prosperity of Beidu, who would want to leave? After graduation, if she’d been assigned back to her hometown, could she have accepted it?
Of course, she took advantage of her youth and beauty to find a capable old man.
Pfft, shameless!
Then she sighed inwardly, after all, she shared a dormitory with her, and if Song Yunuan brought disgrace upon herself, the three of them would surely be implicated, and even Teacher Lin might look down on her.
Sacred and beautiful love should not be used for bargaining.
No, she had to find an opportunity to talk some sense into her tonight.
Bian Haiying didn’t even realize that as she thought this, she actually felt happy and relieved.
Song Yunuan had no idea about Bian Haiying’s thoughts.
Song Yunuan walked out of the building to find a jeep waiting at the door, which probably belonged to the principal.
On the way, Secretary Gu had a smile on his face as he talked leisurely with Song Yunuan.
Song Yunuan recognized him as well.
He was the elder brother from the family of Gu Huai’an’s paternal uncle.
On her second visit to the school office, he had introduced himself.
But to say they were familiar with each other was an overstatement.
She didn’t dare to ask what matter the principal wanted with her.
At this moment, Principal Xu felt quite speechless. What exactly had Song Yunuan done in Xiangjiang to have Chairman Wang from the Xiangjiang transportation industry seek her out, even asking him to speak on their behalf and request her to show mercy towards the Wang family, promising to properly make amends to Xia Xindong?
The other party was adopting a very humble posture.
It made Principal Xu think that the call must have been from a lunatic.
As conscientious a person as he was, he felt like he was in a movie.
Yet, his phone number wasn’t something common folk knew.
It was only after Song Yunuan’s enrollment that his superiors contacted him, explaining that for safety and convenience, if anyone was looking for Song Yunuan, they wouldn’t go to the mailroom but to his office instead.
He thought it unnecessary at first, yet unexpectedly, quite a few had come looking for her.
Secretary Fan from the foreign affairs office, Jin Ju from the newspaper, Old Lin and Old Hu from Beiquan, and honestly, quite busy indeed.
The girl has got some chops!
