Supremely Talented Tyrant-Chapter 619: The Hat Turned Green

"To be exact, it was two billion. I also borrowed money from the bank and some friends. Dad, you don't know, this is a big project. If we miss it, it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," Yuntian said with an air of innocence.

"What project is it? You haven't been scammed, have you?" Yang was skeptical. How could such good fortune fall from the sky?

"How could I be? Initially, when I wanted to invest, they even snubbed the amount I offered and didn't let me invest, I had to beg persistently before they finally agreed to let me buy into it, giving me a small share. Dad, we're talking about a 300% return on investment. Twenty billion in would mean earning back sixty billion. If we make that much for the family, I don't believe grandpa will ignore us," Yuntian explained, firmly believing that Jessica hadn't deceived him.

But Yang still felt it was too good to be true, asking, "What's the girl's name? What's her father's name? How did you meet her?"

"Her name is Jessica. She accidentally hit my car a while ago. I thought she was pretty and was initially just planning to have a little fun, but it ended up with her inviting me to a meal as an apology. Who knew that at the dinner table she would reveal her identity and her plans to look for partners in Huaxia, and I quickly bought in when I sensed an opportunity. Dad, don't worry, there's no way she could deceive me; her family is even wealthier than ours," Yuntian reassured, waving his hands confidently.

"Are you sure?" Yang looked at Yuntian doubtfully. It's no wonder Yang didn't believe Yuntian; since Yuntian had started working under him, he hadn't done a single thing to earn Yang's respect, rather it was always Yang cleaning up his messes.

"Don't worry dad, I know what I'm doing!" Yuntian signalled to Yang not to worry, as he now placed almost blind trust in Jessica.

"By the way, dad, would you mind changing daughters-in-law?" Yuntian said with a sly smile, already planning to divorce his current wife and marry Jessica instead, because Jessica could help him much more than his current wife could.

Yang was shocked, asking, "You mean..."

"Compared to that hag, Jessica's family background is much deeper and can help us a lot more. If I marry her, it's like marrying a goddess of wealth, what do you think, dad?" Yuntian asked, even beginning to brainwash Yang at this point.

Listening to Yuntian's words, Yang too was somewhat tempted, saying, "If she really can bring benefits to our family, then do as you said! You've grown up now, you can make some decisions on your own!"

Both father and son were of the same ilk, ready to forsake family for profit.

"Then I will go see her now," Yuntian said, sporting a sinister smile.

"Go ahead, send her my regards!" Upon hearing about Jessica's extraordinary identity, Yang too began to harbor ulterior motives, agreeing with Yuntian's decision to abandon his wife and child.

When Yuntian arrived at the restaurant excitedly for the appointment, he found that Jessica hadn't arrived yet, so he casually took a seat.

At that moment, Jessica arrived late, apologizing with, "Have you been waiting long? Sorry, I'm late."

"It's no problem; waiting for a beauty is a pleasure," Yuntian quipped, trying his best to display his witty and humorous side.

Jessica too played along, covering her mouth with her hand, her smile blooming beautifully, and threw Yuntian a flirtatious glance: "Such sweet talker."

Yuntian immediately got carried away, thinking to himself, "This girl definitely has a thing for me!"

"Shall we order? What would you like to eat?" Yuntian handed the menu to Jessica with gentlemanly manners.

"Hang on, I'm waiting for a friend," Jessica said, her smile turning playful.

"A friend? Another partner perhaps?" Yuntian asked, excited at the prospect of meeting other partners so soon.

"You'll know in a bit," Jessica teased, just as a figure appeared at the entrance.

"Here! Over here!" Jessica stood up and waved towards the door.

Yuntian turned around joyfully, but his face fell the moment he saw who it was.

It was none other than Hao Jian!

At that moment, the last person Yuntian wanted to see was Hao Jian!

Murong Yeyun had set a deadly trap that failed to kill Hao Jian, but instead, Hao Jian insulted him yet again, and Hao Jian's extraordinary status had since come to light, making him the undisputed top figure in Hua City to be wary of.

"Your friend, is it him?" Yuntian pointed at Hao Jian, his expression one of utter shock as he addressed Jessica.

"Yes, he's a good friend of mine!" Jessica responded, seemingly oblivious to Yuntian's ghost-like expression, still smiling, but intentionally stressing the words "good friend."

Seeing this, Yuntian suddenly realized something and a sense of foreboding surged within him.

"Yuntian, long time no see," Hao Jian laughed heartily, slapped Yuntian on the shoulder, and then unashamedly took the seat between Yuntian and Jessica.

"What do you want? I have no quarrels with you!" Baili Yuntian was so frightened that he hurriedly tried to defend himself, indirectly showing weakness to Hao Jian.

"Don't be nervous, I didn't plan on doing anything to you, after all, you're my cash cow," Hao Jian laughed heartily.

"Cash cow?" Baili Yuntian was suddenly taken aback, seemingly realizing something, and looked at Hao Jian in astonishment, "What do you mean by that?"

"Didn't you just give me two billion? Aren't you my cash cow?" Hao Jian chuckled mischievously.

"What two billion?" Baili Yuntian quickly caught on, looking at Jessica in shock, "You guys..."

Baili Yuntian realized he had been played, Jessica and Hao Jian were in cahoots, and the two billion was exactly the same amount he had given to Jessica.

Jessica and Hao Jian said nothing but exchanged a meaningful smile.

"You actually dared to deceive me for my money?" Baili Yuntian's face flushed red with rage, Hao Jian had actually tricked him?

Was Jessica's appearance also a trap set by Hao Jian?

"Don't use the word 'deceive,' it sounds so harsh. You've been troubling me before, and this little punishment is nothing. You should feel lucky I didn't kill you!" Hao Jian said with a wicked grin.

"Didn't you already beat me up? Why do you still insist on tormenting me?" Baili Yuntian said frustratedly, after having been beaten by Hao Jian, he still wouldn't let him go? This incident caused his family to lose two billion, how was he going to explain this to his father and grandfather?

"Originally, I just thought of beating you up and that would be it, but unfortunately, you unintentionally got involved in another mess, forcing my hand," Hao Jian sighed and then took out a document and placed it in front of Baili Yuntian, "By the way, not only did you have to give me two billion, but you also transferred the securities company you and your father co-own to me."

"Are you dreaming? Why would I possibly transfer the securities company to you?" Baili Yuntian sneered, not remembering having done such a thing.

"Not? Have you forgotten the investment contract you signed earlier?" Hao Jian said with a wicked grin.

"Did you tamper with the contract?" Baili Yuntian was shocked, Hao Jian had tampered with the contract he signed?

"Maybe you didn't notice, but there was a hidden compartment in that contract, and inside this compartment, there was a transfer agreement. That is to say, you've already signed the contract," Hao Jian said, tapping on the desk, a relaxed expression on his face.

Baili Yuntian was stunned, had he been tricked so much without realizing it?

But soon, Baili Yuntian thought of something and scoffed coldly, "You think just having my signature is enough? It's useless. To transfer the securities company, apart from my signature, you also need my fingerprint and the company seal. Without these two things appearing in the contract, my signature alone has no legal effect."

Hao Jian was still too naive, thinking his possessions were so easily taken. It was bad enough that he was cheated out of two billion, but now they also wanted to take away their family's securities company.

Their Baili Securities Company was well-known in Hua City, handling many large securities transactions right there. Just the fees and commissions were enough to fill their coffers to the brim.

The securities company was genuinely a juicy piece of meat since his father was the eldest son of the house, his grandfather had entrusted this important business to his father.

The value of this company was worth far more than two billion.

"The company seal? You mean this?" Hao Jian placed a red seal on the table.

"How could it be in your hands? That's not possible!" Seeing his own seal in Hao Jian's hands, Baili Yuntian was utterly shocked, wondering how Hao Jian had gotten his seal? He had always kept it in his briefcase.

At that moment, Baili Yuntian suddenly remembered how he couldn't resist Bai Yulan's seduction the night before and had spent the night at her place. He had brought the seal with him then; could it be that Bai Yulan had stolen his seal?

"Exactly, this seal was indeed given to me by your mistress, Bai Yulan!" Seeing Baili Yuntian's confusion, Hao Jian simply stopped hiding it.

Baili Yuntian was at a loss for words. Bai Yulan had betrayed him? When did she get involved with Hao Jian?

"Don't be so surprised, after all, love is ruthless, aren't you aware of that?" Hao Jian then scattered a bunch of photos on Baili Yuntian's desk and snickered coldly, "Moreover, you probably don't know yet, your mistress has been using your money to support a young lover!"

Baili Yuntian picked up the photos and instantly felt as if his eyes were about to pop out of his skull, nearly going mad.

The woman in the photos was unmistakably Bai Yulan, kissing a young, pretty-faced man.

At this moment, Baili Yuntian felt as though his hair had turned green. It was bad enough that Bai Yulan had betrayed him, but to also cuckold him like this?
