He looked at Huo Minghao curiously and asked, "Mr. Huo, take your time explaining. If there's anything our Wang Family can help with, we definitely won't turn a blind eye!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Minghao immediately showed a grateful expression. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

He grabbed Wang Zhangyu's hand and said sincerely, "Patriarch Wang, actually, whether or not you make the decision doesn't really matter. The key is, I'm truly feeling wronged this time, otherwise, I wouldn't have come to you for help."

Though his words were full of pretense, Wang Zhangyu didn't completely believe him. He simply pretended to comfort Huo Minghao, patting him on the shoulder and said, "Mr. Huo, don't worry, sit down first and we'll talk slowly."

Huo Minghao nodded and sat down on the sofa. He lowered his head and exaggeratedly described how Lin Beichen had brought Huo Sizun to demand an explanation for Huo Ziyan.

In his narrative, he had already been highly considerate of Huo Sizun, but Huo Sizun, taking shelter under Lin Beichen's influence, wouldn't let him off.

"Honestly, it's all family shame. But that man is truly ruthless, not only injuring my bodyguard but also forcing me to kneel and beg. He says he won't let me go, or the Huo Group!" At this point, Huo Minghao's tone was full of anger and helplessness.

Listening to Huo Minghao's account, Wang Zhangyu couldn't help but be curious. He wondered if Lin Beichen was really as formidable as Huo Minghao claimed.

He couldn't resist asking, "Mr. Huo, you're considered a prominent figure in the business world. How could you be intimidated by an obscure person like this?"

Upon hearing Wang Zhangyu's words, Huo Minghao's face instantly flushed.

Indeed, in their eyes, Lin Beichen was nothing but a minor figure.

Yet it was this very person who had his men utterly defeated. What more could he say?

Seeing Huo Minghao's predicament, Wang Zhangyu quickly offered him a way out: "But speaking of which, as your uncle, Huo Sizun's actions this time are truly disgraceful!"

With this offered way out, Huo Minghao's expression eased significantly. He nodded and said, "Exactly, my uncle hasn't contributed anything to the company, yet he's insatiably greedy. I had no choice but to come to you, Patriarch Wang. If you don't mind, would you be willing to help me against Lin Beichen?"

Help Huo Minghao against Lin Beichen? Wang Zhangyu did not rush to respond to Huo Minghao's request.

Instead, he began pondering what benefits he might gain from aiding Huo Minghao.

Huo Group was a large family enterprise, holding a significant market position.

If he could gain control over Huo Group, their Wang Family would surely become the local dominant power.

Once they made enough money, they could then thoroughly annex Huo Group, allowing them to go further and fly higher.

Such thoughts kept swirling in Wang Zhangyu's mind. He glanced at Huo Minghao and deliberately put on a troubled look, "To be honest, this matter is really your personal affair, and our Wang Family might not be appropriate to intervene."

Upon hearing this, Huo Minghao immediately understood Wang Zhangyu's intention. He was just aiming to gain some benefits from Huo Group.

Although the price was steep, Huo Minghao was determined to ally with the Wang Family, determined to capture Huo Ziyan, Huo Sizun, and Lin Beichen all at once.

"If the Wang Family could become shareholders of Huo Group, then naturally the Wang Family would have the right to intervene. How does the Patriarch feel about this?" Huo Minghao looked at Wang Zhangyu with excitement, his eyes shimmering with expectancy.

He knew well, faced with such great temptation, even the Patriarch of the Wang Family, Wang Zhangyu, might struggle to remain composed.

Wang Zhangyu's lips curled into a smile, and he spoke leisurely, "Mr. Huo, you've really made a big sacrifice, all just to get rid of them, huh?"

Huo Minghao gritted his teeth, a flash of ruthlessness in his eyes, "Whatever means necessary, I want this group to vanish from my sight completely!"

Wang Zhangyu chuckled and proposed his terms: "In that case, if Mr. Huo is willing to relinquish forty percent of Huo Group's shares and market share to our Wang Family, I will certainly help Mr. Huo deal with this group. How does Mr. Huo feel about this?"

Forty percent? Huo Minghao was shocked. He had expected Wang Zhangyu to propose harsh terms but hadn't anticipated he would ask for so much. Nonetheless, since the arrow was already on the string, he had no choice but to release it. If he didn't agree to the Wang Family's terms, he would no doubt anger the Wang Family, and then he would face attacks from all sides, his fate obvious.

Huo Minghao took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Alright, forty percent of the shares and market share, considering Patriarch Wang is so straightforward, I have no reason to refuse!"

Wang Zhangyu chuckled lightly and praised, "As expected of the head of Huo Group, you truly have boldness. I'll have my secretary prepare the documents." With that, he stood up and made a call.

Ten minutes later, the secretary delivered a pile of documents. Huo Minghao reviewed them carefully and signed his name without hesitation. As the pen touched down, the anger in his heart also peaked. He silently vowed, "Lin Beichen, let's see how you dare to boast in front of me now!"

Meanwhile, after returning home, Lin Beichen told Huo Ziyan everything—how Huo Minghao had already conceded and agreed to let Huo Ziyan return to Huo Group, and was willing to hand back the shares to Huo Ziyan.
