Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Chapter 169: Chapter 169: This Really Sucks



"How do you know all these details?" Xu Yang asked.

"A friend told me, my friend has another friend who is a vice president at Triumph Investment." Wang Xiaocong said.

"Then this has nothing to do with me, why are you saying it's related to me?" Xu Yang was somewhat speechless.

Listening to the story, he couldn't see any connection to himself.

"You see, if it weren't for you acquiring that aluminum mine, Chen Ankang wouldn't have become a laughingstock. He originally planned to use the timely sale of the guild to change people's opinions of him, to stop them from laughing at him, which is why he made it public. But who knew that his son didn't follow his instructions.

Realizing he would become an even bigger laughingstock might have been too much for him. It led to a fit of rage which brought on a heart attack, and he died despite resuscitation efforts," Wang Xiaocong said.

"That's a bit far-fetched. You can't go around saying things like that, or people might think I had something to do with his father's death." Xu Yang was a little exasperated.

"Hehe, don't worry, I'm just telling you. I would never say this to anyone else," Wang Xiaocong chuckled.

"Alright, Chen Ankang's business has nothing to do with us. On the movie side, keep an eye on things, don't let Tencent Pictures pull any tricks." Xu Yang didn't care about Chen Ankang's business.

Whether Chen Ankang lived or died had nothing to do with him.

If it weren't for Wang Xiaocong suggesting there was a connection, he wouldn't have even bothered to ask what exactly happened.

"No problem, rest assured, I've got this. Everything will be taken care of," Wang Xiaocong assured him.

...

That evening, Zhao Yulu returned home and mentioned Chen Ankang's death while having dinner with Liu Yujuan.

"What, Chen Guanglei's dad died? What happened? Wasn't Chen Guanglei's dad still the president of Triumph Investment? How could he just die? Was there an accident?" Liu Yujuan exclaimed in surprise.

"There was an accident. He was angered to death by Chen Guanglei." Zhao Yulu said.

After a day of brewing, the employees of related companies to Triumph Investment were aware of the incident.

Jia Sheng Guild, being a wholly-owned subsidiary of Triumph Investment, the news of the death of its president quickly spread.

The cause of death was also circulated.

As the vice president of Jia Sheng Guild, Zhao Yulu naturally knew about it.

She really hadn't expected that Chen Guanglei would anger his own father to death.

It truly was a case of "son's treachery."

"Angered to death? Tell me more about how he was angered to death," Liu Yujuan put down her chopsticks, very interested to find out.

Whether Chen Guanglei's dad died or not was of no concern to her.

But a death caused by anger clearly had the flavor of gossip.

These days, she had nothing to do, just hanging out shopping with friends, doing beauty treatments and she loved to chat about gossip.

As for whether this gossip was disrespectful to the deceased or not, it wasn't within her considerations.

"Originally, Chen Guanglei's father thought the live streaming industry was chaotic, with many guild broadcasters selling fake and shoddy products. Believing the state would eventually crack down, he told Chen Guanglei to sell Jia Sheng Guild and withdraw in time."

"But Chen Guanglei didn't listen to his father, and didn't sell Jia Sheng Guild. Now that the state has started to regulate, our Jia Sheng Guild is a main target. All major broadcasters have been banned, and we've also been suspended for a month, facing a huge fine."

"Chen Guanglei's father thought that Chen Guanglei had sold the guild and was very happy about it. But when he heard from Chen Guanglei that it hadn't been sold, he was instantly infuriated and it brought on a heart attack. He didn't make it through at the hospital."

Zhao Yulu knew the details quite well.

"This Chen Guanglei really did betray his father," Liu Yujuan couldn't help but comment.

In the past, she only watched such things on TV, witnessing people betraying their fathers.

Now, she had finally come to know of such a person in real life, making for a perfect gossip protagonist.

The next time she went shopping with her friends, she would definitely have to talk about this incident.

"This Chen Guanglei is really irresponsible, to have actually driven his father to his death. Yu Lu, you were right to refuse to be his girlfriend; such a person isn't reliable. With his father gone, I doubt he'll be able to hold onto the wealth," Liu Yujuan said.

"Before, you kept telling me I should agree to be his girlfriend, how come you've changed your tune now?" Zhao Yulu rolled her eyes.

"Things were different before, and now can't be compared to before, besides, Xu Yang is much better than him now," Liu Yujuan didn't feel that there was anything wrong with her behavior.

As long as someone is wealthy, she'd prefer her daughter to marry him.

Whether her daughter was happy or not was not within her consideration.

All she cared about was getting money from her son-in-law to squander.

"By the way, have you made up your mind about when to meet Xu Yang? He must be waiting for you to meet him and get back together," Liu Yujuan added.

"Mom, I still need to think about it," Zhao Yulu hadn't made up her mind.

Anyway, she always felt that although Liu Yujuan made some sense, something didn't sit right with her.

"What's there to think about?" Liu Yujuan looked disappointed, "If you wait any longer, the opportunity will be gone. Meet Xu Yang as soon as possible; it's better for both of you if you get back together quickly."

"Mom, I told you, I still need to think it over, stop pressuring me, I'm done eating and going back to my room,"

Zhao Yulu really didn't want to listen to Liu Yujuan going on about this matter; she quickly finished her meal, put down her chopsticks, and went back to her room.

Weekend.

Zhao Yuxin and Shen Yuyan went shopping.

On Wang Xiaocong's birthday party, Zhao Yuxin made a bunch of friends with whom she got along very well.

Today, Shen Yuyan called her to go shopping, so Zhao Yuxin went.

Xu Yang was at home alone with nothing to do, so he played some mobile games.

After two rounds of "King's Glory," the system's notification sound echoed in his mind.

[Ding! Great White Shark Game Company is facing financial difficulties and is at risk of closing!]

[In one week, someone will invest five million, allowing the company to complete the game it is developing, "Shadow Pursuit"!]

["Shadow Pursuit" will pioneer a new genre of martial arts mobile games and will become the hottest mobile game in the second half of the year!]

[With the popularity of this game, Great White Shark Game Company will make a huge profit and subsequently release several more hit games!]

[Three years later, Great White Shark Game Company will become the second-largest gaming company in the country, second only to Tencent Games!]

Xu Yang's eyes lit up.

This is yet another excellent investment opportunity.

He immediately put down his phone, took out his laptop, and started searching online.

Truth be told, he had never heard of Great White Shark Game Company.

It was only after looking it up that he learned it was a startup gaming company established last year.

The founders, all college graduates from the year before, used the money from their families to jointly invest and establish the company.

So far, Great White Shark Game Company had developed two small games, which received a lukewarm response.

They were currently developing a new game called "Shadow Pursuit."

Due to the mediocre response to the two small games, the company was out of money and found it extremely difficult to raise more funds.

If they can't secure funding, the company will soon close down.

According to the system, someone will invest five million in one week, allowing Great White Shark Game Company to finish developing "Shadow Pursuit," which will become a hit mobile game.

So, Xu Yang only needs to invest in Great White Shark Game Company within this week, before that happens.

For Xu Yang now, five million isn't much; he could even invest more to get a larger share, helping Great White Shark Game Company make "Shadow Pursuit" even better.
