The CEO's 100 Billion Bride: The Secret War of the Rich

Su Wanwan stood on the top floor of the Su Group headquarters building, looking down at the city below. As night fell, thousands of lights came on one after another, but her heart was like the dark night sky, without a glimmer of hope.

After Huo Yanshen left, she thought about it for a whole afternoon, but still couldn't make a decision. Accepting the acquisition means giving up her father's hard work, but refusing may face a greater crisis. The dilemma made her feel unprecedented pressure.

At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the office door.

"Come in." Su Wanwan said without turning her head.

Xiao Lin walked in cautiously, "Mr. Su, look at this."

Su Wanwan turned around and took the tablet computer that Xiaolin handed over. The screen showed the latest financial news:

"Breaking news! Su Group was exposed for large-scale financial fraud, and many banks suspended credit!"

This news hit Su Wanwan's heart like a heavy hammer. Her hands began to tremble unconsciously, and she almost dropped the tablet on the ground.

"This...what's going on?" Su Wanwan asked with difficulty.

Xiao Lin looked anxious. "We are still verifying the specific situation. But several banks have called us and said they will suspend our loans. Mr. Su, what should we do now?"

Su Wanwan took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. "Immediately call all the senior executives from the Finance Department and the Legal Department. I want to know the authenticity of this news. At the same time, contact the Public Relations Department and prepare to respond to media inquiries."

"Yes, I'll arrange it right away." Kobayashi quickly left the office.

Su Wanwan turned to the window again and saw a large number of reporters and creditors gathered downstairs. The flashing spotlights were particularly dazzling in the night, like a huge net that was about to completely swallow up the Su Group.

At this moment, her cell phone suddenly rang. It was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello?" Su Wanwan answered the phone.

"Ms. Su," a deep male voice came from the other end of the phone, "I am Cheng Yuan, the chairman of Chenguang Group."

Su Wanwan instantly became alert. Chenguang Group was Su's old rival, and the two companies had been competing head-on in the market for many years.

"Chairman Cheng, is there anything I can help you with?" Su Wanwan tried to keep her tone calm.

Cheng Yuan chuckled, "Ms. Su, I think your current situation must be very difficult. Why don't we meet and discuss the possibility of cooperation?"

Su Wanwan was shocked. First, Huo Yanshen proposed to acquire the company, and now Cheng Yuan wanted to discuss cooperation. Why did these two rivals who usually did not get along with Su's suddenly become so interested in Su's?

"Chairman Cheng, excuse me for being blunt, but now is not a good time to discuss cooperation." Su Wanwan answered cautiously.

Cheng Yuan seemed to have expected this. "Ms. Su, you may not know the seriousness of the matter yet. I just got the news that after tomorrow's opening, Su's stock price is likely to hit the limit again. By then, your situation will only become more difficult."

Su Wanwan clenched her fists and suppressed her inner anxiety. "Thank you, Chairman Cheng, for reminding me. But we have our own plans for Su's affairs."

Cheng Yuan was silent for a moment, then said meaningfully: "Miss Su, your father once said that business is like a battlefield. Sometimes, choosing a strong ally is more likely to win than fighting alone. I hope you can consider my proposal carefully."

After hanging up the phone, Su Wanwan fell into deep thought. Cheng Yuan's words made her more confused. Did her father really say such a thing? Or was it just a trick of Cheng Yuan?

At this moment, Xiao Lin rushed in, "Boss Su, it's bad! The creditors downstairs are very excited and want to rush into the building! The security guards can no longer control the situation!"

Su Wanwan's expression changed, "I'll go down and take a look myself."

When Su Wanwan arrived at the lobby of the building, she was shocked by the scene in front of her. Dozens of creditors were having a fierce conflict with the security guards, and the lobby was in chaos.

"Su Wanwan! Come out and face us!"

“Give us back our hard-earned money!”

"Su Group is a fraudulent company!"

Facing the angry creditors, Su Wanwan took a deep breath and stood in front of the crowd.

"Everyone, please calm down!" Her voice was not loud, but it was very firm. "I understand how you feel. But making trouble now will not solve the problem. Please give us some time, and I promise to give everyone a satisfactory explanation."

"Explanation? What else do you have to explain?" A middle-aged man sneered, "Your father committed suicide out of fear of punishment, and now the company has been exposed for financial fraud. Su Wanwan, what else do you have to say?"

Su Wanwan suppressed the pain in her heart and said in a deep voice: "We are verifying the rumors about financial fraud. If there is a problem, we will definitely take responsibility. But now, I implore you to give us some time."

At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "Don't listen to her nonsense! We are going to seize the company's assets now!"

As soon as the words fell, a group of people rushed towards the elevator.

At the critical moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded: "Stop it!"

Su Wanwan turned around and saw Huo Yanshen walking in quickly with a team of bodyguards.

Huo Yanshen looked around and said in a stern voice: "Everyone, I understand how you feel. However, illegal entry and forced closure are illegal. If you have any demands, you can resolve them through legal means."

Seeing Huo Yanshen, many creditors showed fearful expressions. After all, the influence of Huo's Group in City A should not be underestimated.

Taking advantage of the situation to calm down a little, Su Wanwan quickly said: "Everyone, I promise you in my personal name that within three days, I will give you a clear repayment plan. Before that, please give us some time and space."

The creditors looked at each other and finally left the hall reluctantly.

The crisis was temporarily resolved, and Su Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief. She turned to Huo Yanshen and said, "Thank you."

Huo Yanshen smiled faintly, "You're welcome. However, Miss Su, you should understand that this is only temporary. If you don't make a decision quickly, you may not be so lucky next time."

Su Wanwan remained silent. She knew that what Huo Yanshen said was true, but she couldn't make up her mind to give up her father's hard work.

At this moment, Xiao Lin ran over in a hurry, "Boss Su, there's news from the Finance Department just now. They found some abnormal account records. Maybe... there really is a financial problem."

This news was like a bolt from the blue, and Su Wanwan felt dizzy. She staggered and almost fell, but fortunately Huo Yanshen supported her in time.

"Miss Su, are you okay?" Huo Yanshen asked with concern.

Su Wanwan barely stood still and said with a wry smile: "Boss Huo, it seems that I am really at my wit's end."

Huo Yan looked at her deeply, "So, are you ready to accept my proposal?"

Su Wanwan closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes again, her eyes were full of determination.

"Give me one night. Tomorrow morning, I will give you an answer."

Huo Yanshen nodded, "Okay, I'll wait for your news."

Looking at Huo Yanshen's departing back, Su Wanwan felt unprecedentedly lonely and helpless.
