Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 2301: Chapter 1746: I Want to See Him Beg Us!

Bai Xiaosheng stayed for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, then got up to leave, making it clear that he would participate in the land auction tomorrow and intended to acquire the piece of land.

Jia Chengshan and the others tried to persuade him to stay, but seeing Bai Xiaosheng’s determination, they didn’t insist and got up to send off Bai Xiaosheng one by one.

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying were outside, and upon seeing Bai Xiaosheng coming out, they immediately got up to greet him.

Jia Haoran and Cheng Xuanbei naturally got up quickly and followed. Seeing their contemporary, whom they once wanted to humiliate, now chatting and laughing with a group of business bigwigs, as if those bigwigs were there to accompany him, made Jia Haoran and Cheng Xuanbei feel a bit sour inside.

Bai Xiaosheng chatted with Jia Chengshan and the others for a while, then suddenly caught sight of Jia Haoran and Cheng Xuanbei. Half-jokingly, half-seriously, he said to Jia Chengshan, ”These two really have a natural arrogance; businessmen should have a bit of pride, but being too impetuous is not good, it’s easy to suffer losses and cause trouble!”

Jia Haoran and Cheng Xuanbei heard Bai Xiaosheng’s elder-like comment on them, which seemed more like he was causing trouble for them, and their faces immediately changed.

”Mr. Bai is right. I will teach them properly about today’s matter!” Jia Chengshan responded politely, glaring fiercely at the two of them.

Cheng Baida was even more surprised to hear this, looking at his son who seemed to be gritting his teeth.

If the family loses an opportunity because of his son, it would be too unworthy!

Today, Jia Haoran and Cheng Xuanbei wanted to publicly confront Bai Xiaosheng, making things very embarrassing. If it were them in Bai Xiaosheng’s position, they wouldn’t let it go easily either!

They now needed something from Bai Xiaosheng, so the matter had to be addressed! Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain to everyone!

Cheng Baida directly stood up and yelled in anger, ”Xuanbei, why aren’t you apologizing to Mr. Bai!”

Cheng Baida, usually low-key and reserved, suddenly acting like this, really surprised everyone.

Seeing his father’s reddened eyes, with the expression not faked, Cheng Xuanbei trembled all over and quickly bowed slightly to Bai Xiaosheng, ”Mr. Bai, I was blind to greatness today, I hope you can forgive!”

In front of everyone, Cheng Xuanbei behaved ”obediently.”

Bai Xiaosheng slightly nodded without expression.

Seeing this, Cheng Baida knew that an apology was not enough, and shouted again, ”Now go straight home, I will ground you for three months, and copy the family precepts a hundred times!”

Cheng Xuanbei dared not refuse, and respectfully replied, ”Yes, father.”

This father-son duo performed a whole show in front of everyone, whether real or fake, they gave Bai Xiaosheng enough face.

Bai Xiaosheng also smiled, ”When you’re done, feel free to send it to me. Master Cheng should be honest; don’t hire someone to write it for you, otherwise I might doubt the Cheng Family’s business ethics!”

Bai Xiaosheng’s words made Cheng Xuanbei secretly grimace.

This punishment, which originally might not have been enforced, would now definitely have to be carried out because of Bai Xiaosheng’s words, even if just for the family’s sake!

One hundred copies of family precepts...

The mere thought made Cheng Xuanbei’s head ache.

While Cheng Baida and his son set an ”example” in public, Jia Haoran was the one feeling the most tormented, with a bad premonition rising in his heart.

Soon enough, after talking about Cheng Xuanbei, Bai Xiaosheng turned to him.

Jia Chengshan sighed internally and said sternly, ”Haoran, you should do the same!”

Upon hearing this, Jia Haoran turned pale.

Unlike Cheng Xuanbei’s small family, the Jia Family was a large clan, and their family precepts were a book!

Copying it a hundred times? It would kill him!

Jia Haoran opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but his father gave him a fierce glare, and he immediately wilted like a frost-beaten eggplant.

Jia Haoran was too ostentatious, causing trouble, and Jia Chengshan felt that if he let it continue, it would ruin him. He decided to take advantage of this opportunity to keep his temperament in check!

Seeing this, Bai Xiaosheng didn’t make things any more difficult. After all, he hadn’t suffered any loss, and leaving the mild punishment to their fathers was enough.

Bai Xiaosheng then bid farewell, leaving with Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying.

Watching the back of Bai Xiaosheng and his group, Jia Chengshan and the others remained silent.

Jia Haoran and Cheng Xuanbei also slunk off to the side, not daring to stay longer for fear of further rebuke.

With no one else around, Jia Chengshan’s people couldn’t help but exchange thoughts.

”What exactly did Bai Xiaosheng mean by that, trying to play mysterious? How could Tengyun, Beifeng, and Haoyu not urgently need the resources we hold!”

”We’ve held several meetings for this, how could our conclusions based on investigation data be wrong? I think Bai Xiaosheng is purposely spouting nonsense!”

”That cunning little fox must be playing psychological tactics with us!”

...

Everyone chimed in with different opinions.

Lu Tiandao couldn’t help but lean close to Jia Chengshan and said, ”Mr. Jia, what do you think about what Bai Xiaosheng said about Lu Yun and their movements... Should we make arrangements to monitor them overnight?”

This point concerned him the most.

”Even if we arrange to monitor now, isn’t it too late, and where would we even find Lu Yun’s trace!” Zhang Qinglin, overhearing, couldn’t help but mutter.

Jia Chengshan squinted his eyes, looking in the direction Bai Xiaosheng left, and said in a deep voice, ”This young man, his mind works like a demon, you all saw it. His thoughts are not only clear but agile, and tight-lipped. He might be deliberately leading the topic to distract us!”

Jia Chengshan’s words made Lu Tiandao and Zhang Qinglin exchange glances.

”Mr. Jia, you mean, Bai Xiaosheng brought up this topic on purpose to capture our attention and divert our energy?” Zhang Qinglin said in astonishment.

”That’s possible!” Lu Tiandao pondered briefly, but fully agreed with Jia Chengshan.

After hearing this, Zhang Qinglin also fell silent.

Bai Xiaosheng always gave them the feeling that he was guiding the topic, and if it were really important, how could he just be rambling on.

Jia Chengshan said in a grave voice, ”It’s too late to investigate Lu Yun’s movements now, and Bai Xiaosheng is going to participate in the land auction tomorrow, determined to acquire that land. Perhaps he wants to distract us. His words, true or false, must be taken seriously, but we must not be misled!”

Lu Tiandao and Zhang Qinglin nodded immediately upon hearing this.

Suddenly, Jia Chengshan’s mouth curved into a smile, ”I judge that Bai Xiaosheng genuinely wants that land tomorrow, even if he didn’t, Lu Yun needs it urgently. Entrusted by others, he has to fulfill their business! So we can’t let that land slip away!”

”Absolutely!” Lu Tiandao also smiled coldly, ”We need to make Bai Xiaosheng understand that cooperating with us is only beneficial, otherwise, they will face big trouble.”

Zhang Qinglin also added with a sinister smile, ”Huge trouble!”

Jia Chengshan looked at the two beside him and also laughed, ”This Bai Xiaosheng certainly showed off a bit in front of us today.”

”Tomorrow, I’d like to see him begging us fervently!”
