After Breaking Off the Engagement, a Cold Military Officer Spoils Me Endlessly

C225 - C227

"Yaoyao doesn't want to go, so why did you agree?" Ling Xuemei looked at Ji Yanting in confusion.
　　
　　Ji Yanting reached out and gently patted Ling Xuemei's arm, then cast his eyes on Ling Yao, "Yaoyao, will you blame Dad for acting on his own?"
　　
　　Ling Yao smiled and shook her head, "I will go tomorrow." Since the He family specifically asked her to go, their purpose must be not simple. She wanted to see what tricks the He family was going to play.
　　
　　"Don't worry, Dad is here, and Dad will never let anyone bully you." Ji Yanting's tone was full of determination. He knew that his daughter was smart, but the world was often full of dangers and challenges. As a father, he was willing to do his best to protect his daughter and keep her from any harm.
　　
　　On the other side, He Xueli hung up the phone and looked respectfully at a foreigner sitting next to him, "Mr. Smith, I have invited the person you want to see, and she will go to the banquet tomorrow." This time Mr. Smith came for Longteng Pharmaceutical.
　　
　　That day he attended the wedding banquet of Ling Yao and Lu Qingyun, and was surprised to learn that Ling Yao was actually the boss behind Longteng Pharmaceuticals. He then called Mr. Smith to tell him about it. He knew that Mr. Smith had always intended to acquire Longteng Pharmaceuticals.
　　
　　"Very good!" Smith nodded with satisfaction. Last time he went to talk to Zhao Kun about acquiring Longteng Pharmaceuticals, but was rejected by Zhao Kun. Now he knows that Zhao Kun is not the person in charge of Longteng Pharmaceuticals, and the real person in charge is actually a 20-year-old girl. Compared to Zhao Kun, Ling Yao should be easier to deal with.
　　
　　The next day, Ling Yao followed her parents to the He family's graduation banquet.
　　
　　When they arrived at the hotel, He Xueli had been standing there waiting for a long time.
　　
　　As soon as he saw Ji Yanting's family of three, He Xueli immediately came up with a smile on his face: "Brother Ji! Welcome, welcome! Please come in! This must be your daughter, right? Oh my, she is so generous and beautiful, no wonder Young Master Lu fell in love with her, hahaha..."
　　
　　As He Xueli spoke, he personally led Ji Yanting and the other two into the banquet hall and arranged them in the main seats.
　　
　　Ling Yao sat down slowly, her eyes inadvertently swept across the seat next to her, and she was surprised to find that there was a blond foreigner sitting there.
　　
　　She raised her eyebrows slightly, and a trace of doubt surged in her heart. The face of this foreigner was somewhat familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.
　　
　　After thinking carefully, Ling Yao remembered that she had seen this person in the financial news in her previous life. It is reported that most of the state-owned enterprises in the country were acquired by him.
　　
　　These so-called Sino-foreign joint ventures sounded glamorous on the surface, but in fact, they gradually disappeared shortly after being acquired. Instead, there are some products from abroad.
　　
　　Some companies that did not want to be acquired, such as Lotus MSG, were attacked by malicious rumors claiming that consuming the product would cause cancer. Although Lotus MSG has been trying hard to persist, its sales have dropped sharply and it has fallen into trouble.
　　
　　Seeing Ling Yao looking at him, Smith smiled like a gentleman, "Hello! Beautiful lady, I am Smith, nice to meet you."
　　
　　Ling Yao smiled back politely, "Hello!" She didn't want to talk to Smith more.
　　
　　He Xueli saw the opportunity to introduce Ling Yao, "Ms. Ling Yao, this is Mr. Smith. He is a foreign investor who specializes in investing in some domestic companies to help them go international and become world-renowned brands."
　　
　　
Ling Yao immediately understood what He Xueli meant. Zhao Kun had told her that day that a foreign businessman called him and wanted to acquire Longteng Pharmaceuticals, but he refused. If she guessed correctly, the foreign investor should be Smith in front of her.
　　
　　It seems that He Xueli invited her to the banquet this time for this purpose. But they were destined to be disappointed. Not only would she not let Longteng Pharmaceuticals be acquired by Smith, she would also invest in some domestic companies to make them stronger and avoid the fate of being acquired.
　　
　　Smith took out a business card and handed it to Ling Yao, "Ms. Ling Yao, I heard that you are the boss of Longteng Pharmaceutical. I wonder if I have the honor to cooperate with you? In fact, I have learned about your golden wine. The effect is indeed very good, but it is not well-known enough. So if Ling Yao is willing, I can invest 100 million to acquire your Longteng Pharmaceutical."
　　
　　Ling Yao smiled faintly, "Sorry! Our Longteng Pharmaceutical does not accept acquisitions."
　　
　　"Ms. Ling Yao, don't rush to refuse. It will definitely benefit you to cooperate with me. Now Longteng Pharmaceutical's popularity is limited to the country, but after being acquired by me, it will be different. It can go international and go to the whole world. Isn't this what Miss Ling Yao expects? And 100 million US dollars is not a small amount. Miss Ling Yao, you have to think about it carefully."
　　
　　"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Smith. I won't consider it. I believe that within a year, my Longteng Pharmaceutical will also be able to go abroad and go to the world." Ling Yao said confidently. She had already made plans, and now it was just a matter of time.
　　
　　"Ms. Ling Yao, are you too confident? Without the EU certification, your products can only be sold by yourself forever, and you can never go abroad." Smith's tone was a little threatening. "
　　
　　Then Mr. Smith, don't worry about it." Ling Yao picked up the red wine glass on the table and raised the glass to Smith with a smile.
　　
　　Smith smiled coldly, "Then I will wait and see. I hope Miss Ling Yao will not let me down." He will definitely get what he wants. If he can't get it, he will destroy it directly.
　　
　　"Of course not." Ling Yao elegantly picked up the wine glass and took a sip of red wine. Her bright eyes flashed with a firm light, as if she had already seen through Smith's tricks.
　　
　　She knew very well that Smith was a man like him. His method was nothing more than spreading some false news in the newspapers to try to discredit the reputation of Longteng Pharmaceutical. In addition, he would hire some people to make trouble at the door of Longteng Pharmaceutical to create chaos and adverse effects.
　　
　　Smith was secretly angry. He picked up the wine glass on the table, drank it all, and then put the glass heavily on the table. "I hope you don't regret it!" After saying this, he stood up and walked towards the door. He must make Longteng Pharmaceutical pay the price. Since soft tactics don't work, he can only use hard tactics.
　　
　　He will use the power of public opinion to create huge pressure on Longteng Pharmaceutical. He believes that as long as Longteng Pharmaceutical is forced into a desperate situation, he can easily acquire the company by proposing a takeover. Although doing so may greatly reduce the market value of Longteng Pharmaceutical, it is much better than getting nothing.
　　
　　Thinking of this, a smug smile flashed across Smith's face.
