Chapter 259 Entrusted with important tasks
Bian Yue narrowed her eyes, and there was a flash of sharpness in them. Then she smiled and said calmly, "Okay."
Hong Kong Hotel, top floor box.
Shen Jinci would be here for some time, so Bai Xu politely handed the menu to Bian Yue and said with a smile, "I don't know what Mr. Bian likes, so you should order first."
"Assistant Bai, do you have any dietary restrictions?" Bian Yue took the menu and said calmly, "If you have any dietary restrictions, I will pay attention to them."
"I don't have any dietary restrictions, but I do remember that Mr. Bian used to not eat many things."
"Things are different now. People in my current position can no longer do whatever they want. Even if they don't like something, they have to pretend to eat it."
Bai Xu's smile deepened, and he followed Bian Yue's words and said, "So, Mr. Bian has to take over this mess?"
"Assistant Bai, given my relationship with the Li family, there's no need for me to stand up for Li Tingmo, right?"
"I understand what you mean, but... I was just about to liquidate Feng Cheng, and you signed Feng Cheng. It's inevitable that you're doing something a bit awkward." Bai Xu sighed and said, "This kind of behavior may be criticized by others for adding insult to injury."
"Li Siheng was still plotting against Li Tingmo before he died. If we talk about kicking someone when they are down, Li Siheng was ahead of me."
Bai Xu was stunned by Bian Yue's straightforward words. He paused and then said calmly, "Boss Bian, Mr. Li treats you very well."
"I know, so I'm sitting here, asking Assistant Bai to show some mercy and stop suppressing the Bian Group." Bian Yue said this, put down the menu, took the tea beside her, and raised it towards Bai Xu.
Bai Xu looked helpless and drank the wine in his glass. "How did Mr. Bian know that I was suppressing Feng Cheng?"
"Li Siheng must have instructed you to do this, so you would force Li Tingmo so hard." Bian Yue paused and said, "Or maybe there is something hidden in Feng Cheng that cannot be known by others."
"Something that cannot be told?"
"For example, how did such a large group get hollowed out? Assistant Bai used all means to force Li Tingmo to step down and liquidate Feng Cheng, wasn't it just to clear up the evidence? Maybe all this is not only related to Li Siheng, but also to you."
Bai Xu looked at Bian Yue meaningfully, "Boss Bian is threatening me?"
"You misunderstood. I have no interest in Feng Cheng's missing assets, and I don't want to pursue them. Si Heng is no longer with us, and I won't look for any clues about the scheme he set up during his lifetime. So, now that I have Feng Cheng, he is just the Bian Group to me, and I will destroy everything from the past."
Bian Yue said this, looking at Bai Xu's increasingly deep gaze, and said calmly: "Does this count as knowing the current situation?"
"Miss Bian, you are really embarrassing me by saying these things to me." Bai Xu's smile was dull, and his tone became increasingly shallow: "I don't mean to interfere with Miss Bian. I just want to tell you that if you really take over Feng Cheng, your future will definitely not be easy."
Feng Cheng is now on the verge of collapse. If Bian Yue takes over, he will inevitably have to go through intense pain before the storm can be calmed down.
Bian Yue looked at Bai Xu calmly, her voice steady and calm, "Assistant Bai, since I have chosen it, I have naturally made mental preparations. I will stand together with this group, because now it is the Bian Group."
There was a thought-provoking meaning in Bai Xu's eyes. He didn't say anything else. Instead, he took the wine beside him and raised it towards Bian Yue, "Then I'm here to wish Miss Bian all the best."
The two drank it all in one gulp. Bai Xu spoke again, his voice much gentler than before. He said slowly: "Since Mr. Bian has made up his mind, I am also willing to let go, but I have one condition."
Bian Yue sat upright and said seriously, "Assistant Bai, please speak." "Feng Cheng was operated by Mr. Li and I before. If I liquidate it now, I can get some money and start over. But now that Feng Cheng has become Bian's, how should I deal with it?" Bai Xu smiled and spoke again, his voice calmer, "So, I also need some protection."
"Assistant Bai wants to keep a position in the Bian Group?" Bian Yue said Bai Xu's intention without changing his expression, raised his eyes to look at him, and said gently: "What position does Assistant Bai want?"
Bai Xu's smile faded, "Vice President, 10% of the shares. From now on, Miss Bian will be my immediate superior."
A waiter came in, and Bian Yue calmly ordered the dishes. As the door closed, she looked at Bai Xu, "Assistant Bai, the vice president can give you 10% of the shares. Why?"
"I can write off Feng Cheng's overseas bad debts." Bai Xu smiled and said calmly, "Boss Bian should know how much money it would cost to settle such a huge bad debt. With this money, I can buy 10% of the shares of Bian Group."
Bian Yue completely understood that Feng Cheng’s bankruptcy was the deliberate result of Li Siheng and Bai Xu’s collusion.
Now that Li Siheng is dead, all power and resources are in the hands of Bai Xu alone.
Bian Yue stopped smiling and looked at Bai Xu. "If you want shares, I can give them to you, but I want you to sign an agreement with me to be responsible for managing the core secrets of the Bian Group. No one else can get involved. If the secrets are leaked, you will be fully responsible."
"Boss Bian, are you confident in letting me take care of it?" Bai Xu raised his eyebrows and smiled gently, "Boss Bian, don't you think someone like me can't be entrusted with such an important task?"
"I don't keep idle people, and as long as you dare to sign, I dare to use you."
Bai Xu narrowed his eyes and thought deeply. After a moment, he smiled and said seriously, "I promise, Mr. Bian."
Just then, the dishes started to arrive, and Bian Yue turned the topic to the light-hearted and humorous daily life. The two of them spoke calmly and peacefully.
When Shen Jinci appeared, the atmosphere at the scene was already very harmonious.
He walked in from outside, wearing a dark suit, with a noble temperament and a hint of coldness.
He sat down next to Bian Yue, glanced at Bai Xu casually, then looked away and asked Bian Yue how the talk went.
"We've finished talking about it, Jin Ci. Let me introduce you to my future vice president, Bai Xu." Bian Yue smiled casually.
On the contrary, Bai Xu was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, "I still have to thank Mr. Bian for his favor."
Shen Jinci was a man of few words while eating. He would turn the round plate on the table for Bian Yue from time to time and put her favorite dishes in front of her.
When he did these things, he acted as if no one was around and looked like an ordinary man who had just finished work and was having dinner with his wife.
Bai Xu felt complicated and couldn't help but look at the two of them a few more times.
After finishing her meal, Bian Yue got up and went to the bathroom to tidy up her clothes. Shen Jinci helped her tidy up the clothes hanging on the back of the chair. In the dull atmosphere, he looked at Bai Xu and said indifferently, "Go ahead."
Bai Xu was stunned at first, then he smiled and said, "What does Mr. Shen want me to say?"
