Moments later, Su Linhai, leaning on his cane, came downstairs.

At this point, he could only shamelessly seek investors.

Zhang Jingzhong was low-key, but his business empire was powerful.

If he could persuade him, he would surely help the Su Family through this crisis!

Before long, Su Linhai arrived at Zhang Jingzhong’s residence.

The door was open.

Su Linhai’s heart surged with excitement.

It seemed that this time, he would succeed!

Stepping into the Zhang Family’s home, Zhang Jingzhong sat on the sofa, looking down with a smile at Su Linhai.

"It seems Mr. Su is quite anxious."

Hearing this, how could Su Linhai not be excited?

He shakily approached Zhang Jingzhong, exclaiming excitedly, "I beseech you, Mr. Zhang, to save the Su Family!"

Given the current situation, Su Linhai was convinced that the benevolent Zhang Jingzhong was about to extend a helping hand.

However, Zhang Jingzhong was unusually calm, merely sipping his tea leisurely.

Su Linhai’s breathing hitched as he asked, "Mr. Zhang..."

Zhang Jingzhong replied with a smile, "Don’t get me wrong, I actually have no intention of meddling in your affairs."

Su Linhai immediately became anxious, "But Mr. Zhang, you have already..."

If he didn’t want to provide financial support, what was all this about?

Zhang Jingzhong laughed heartily, motioning for Su Linhai to take a seat first.

"Old Mr. Su, don’t worry. Although I won’t provide funds, someone else is willing to."

Su Linhai stared with wide eyes, "Who?"

Zhang Jingzhong just teased him with riddles, laughing, "You don’t need to know who it is. They’re willing to invest two billion in the Su Family."

"Two billion?"

Su Linhai nearly lost his balance.

Two billion was more than enough to revive the Su Family.

For a moment, his heart swelled with joy, and he burst into laughter.

"Heaven blesses our Su Family, Heaven blesses our Su Family!"

"Mr. Zhang, where is this gentleman? I want to thank him in person right now!"

Zhang Jingzhong smiled, "This gentleman is very busy and has entrusted me with all the affairs."

At this point, money was what mattered the most.

Su Linhai grinned from ear to ear, nodding vigorously.

"Good! Good!"

"Then may I ask, when will we..." Su Linhai was eager to proceed.

Zhang Jingzhong simply smiled, gesturing for Su Linhai to sit down again.

Su Linhai obediently took a seat, but it seemed to him that Zhang Jingzhong had something else in mind?

Indeed, Zhang Jingzhong began to speak.

"This two billion, the employer has additional instructions."

Su Linhai hurriedly asked, "What instructions?"

"To buy fifty-one percent of your Su Cosmetics shares!" Finally, Zhang Jingzhong’s smile disappeared.

Boom! 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

It was like a bolt from the blue.

Su Linhai shot up from his seat, struggling to believe what he heard.

Fifty-one percent of the shares.

Wouldn’t that mean becoming the decision-maker of Su Cosmetics?

As expected, the two billion wouldn’t come easy.

"Mr. Zhang!" Su Linhai burst out angrily, "It seems we cannot cooperate this time!"

How could he sell the company he had managed for so many years just like that?

At this moment, Zhang Jingzhong let out a laugh.

"Wait, old Mr. Su. Are you sure about your decision?"

"Do you want the Su Family to keep declining until it’s worthless?"

"Or do you want to take this money and make a comeback?"

Su Linhai’s breathing stalled.

The Su Family’s decline was like a hanging sword over his head.

The next moment, the Su Family could be utterly bankrupt!

But by taking the money, he would lose his say in Su Cosmetics...

To take the money or not?

Su Linhai was torn.

Suddenly, with determination in his eyes, he looked at Zhang Jingzhong.

Zhang Jingzhong chuckled, "Old Mr. Su, don’t rush. Take your time to think."

"I need three days to consider!" Su Linhai declared.

It was his final bit of defiance.

Maybe, in three days, other support could arrive.

But Zhang Jingzhong slowly shook his head, "Sorry, but if you miss this opportunity, there won’t be another."

"The employer said if you don’t agree today, they will not invest any money."

At his words, Su Linhai trembled.

It seemed he could no longer hesitate.

Money was of the essence.

After a long while, Su Linhai finally sighed deeply.

"Take the money; I agree."

Zhang Jingzhong laughed heartily, "Good!"

Once the contract was signed, he slowly pushed a bank card across to Su Linhai.

"Two billion, not a penny less."

Su Linhai’s hands trembled as he slowly reached for the bank card.

But the next instant, he froze.

On the bank card was the emblem of Longsword.

A longsword piercing a shield.

An emblem that others would not dare to use without permission!

Was Longsword taking over the Su Family?

Initially shocked, Su Linhai quickly became ecstatic.

It was Longsword!

It was Longsword!!!

If they could be allied with Longsword, what troubles could the Su Family possibly have on their path ahead?

"Mr. Zhang, why didn’t you tell me sooner?"

Su Linhai was overjoyed, his previous doubts long gone.

Zhang Jingzhong smiled without saying a word.

Yet to Su Linhai, that smile was an affirmation!

"Then, I’ll take my leave!"

Just as Su Linhai was about to bid farewell, Zhang Jingzhong motioned for him to stay.

"I’ve heard that Mr. Su will be celebrating your seventieth birthday in a few days?"

"That’s correct; Mr. Zhang, please come. You will be most welcome!"

Zhang Jingzhong laughed, "I will certainly come, but the employer also wishes to bring their family to offer their congratulations."

A leader from Longsword coming to visit?

Su Linhai felt a cramp in his calf.

This was an enormous honor!

The head of the Su Family, him, would have Longsword representatives personally coming to wish him on his birthday.

If word of this got out, his face would be incomparable!

Who in Tianhe City would dare look down on him then?

"You will be most welcome!" Su Linhai said excitedly.

Only after an ecstatic Su Linhai had left,

Did a figure slowly emerge in the room.

Ye Fei.
