My Ares Son-in-Law

There was some soothing and consolation in the secretary's words, as if telling Wang Xiong that he just needed to wait for good news and all problems would be solved.

"it is good!"

When Wang Xiong heard what the secretary said, a look of great joy suddenly appeared on his face.

He secretly praised in his heart that Shadow King was really powerful. He could easily control the famous giant group in Haixi region, the Amei Group. His means and strength were truly amazing.

With the help of Aramco, a powerful ally, Wang Xiong's confidence instantly doubled. He firmly believed that no matter how great the difficulties and challenges he encountered, as long as he had the support of Aramco, his plan would be implemented smoothly without any suspense.

A smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were shining with cunning and expectation, as if he had already seen the glorious moment of his success.

He tapped the phone on the table gently, as if to thank it for bringing him this exciting good news.

Then he stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the prosperous city scene in the distance, his heart filled with infinite longing and expectation for the future.

After a while, Wang Xiong picked up the phone a little nervously, slid his fingertips lightly across the screen, and finally dialed the number of Bai Maogong, chairman of Aramco Group.

The air seemed to freeze, and his heartbeat quickened as the phone rang, each beat carrying his anticipation and anxiety about the outcome of the call.

"Who are you looking for?" On the other end of the phone, Bai Maogong's voice came through the cold radio waves, with a bit of majesty and indifference that could not be ignored, as if it could penetrate everything and reach people's hearts.

There was no warmth in that voice, just like the biting cold wind in winter, which made people shiver involuntarily.

"Hello, Mr. Bai, I'm Wang Xiong." Wang Xiong explained hurriedly, with a hint of urgency and respect in his voice, "King Ying asked me to call you about Lin Youya's matter..."

There was a hint of hesitation in his words, as if he was weighing the right words. "Although I have called several banks and bosses I am familiar with and repeatedly told them not to lend money to Lin Youya, but considering that my influence is limited after all, I am worried..."

On the other end of the phone, Bai Maogong's voice was still extremely cold, as if it was an echo from the abyss, making people feel terrified: "Don't worry, Wang Xiong."

Every word he said was like a carefully carved ice pick, hitting the point directly.

"I have already informed the top executives of several major banks. They know exactly what to do. No one will lend her money. You continue to keep an eye on her. If she tries to seek financial support through other channels, no matter who she finds, tell me immediately. I will personally inform her and ensure there are no loopholes."

After hearing this, Wang Xiong couldn't help but feel relieved, but it was immediately replaced by a complex emotion.

He knew very well that in this war without gunpowder, he was just an insignificant chess piece on the chessboard. All he could do was to try his best to execute the orders of his superiors. The turbulent situation behind him was beyond his reach. On the other end of the phone, Bai Maogong's voice came through the phone line with unquestionable determination and deep calculation, and continued:
"I can't say anything else, but within the Eastern Region, my name of Bai Maogong is enough to scare people. No one would dare to risk offending me to support Lin Youya. This time, you are sure to win, Wang Xiong. The balance of victory has already tilted towards you."

An irrepressible smile of excitement instantly broke out on Wang Xiong's face, in that smile there was both a desire for victory and awe for Bai Mao's achievements.

He nodded hastily, his voice trembling a little: "Okay, Mr. Bai, I understand. I admire your strength and determination. I will definitely do my best and not let you down."

Bai Maogong laughed deeply on the other end of the phone, and that laugh revealed an unfathomable cunning and cruelty:
"However, Wang Xiong, I think your plan is still too superficial, not ruthless enough, not decisive enough. The business world is like a battlefield, kindness and weakness will only become stumbling blocks.

I have a new plan, which is more thorough and ruthless. It will make Lin Yue give up his shares and let you take full control of the Lin Group and become the real helmsman. Will you do it?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiong's eyes flashed with surprise and curiosity, and then he bowed his head respectfully, his voice full of expectation and determination: "President Bai, please go ahead! As long as it can help me achieve my goal, no matter how difficult the plan is, I am willing to give it a try, even if the road ahead is full of thorns, I will not hesitate."

Bai Maogong's voice on the other end of the phone was as cold as ice, and every word was like a carefully crafted blade, piercing people's hearts:
"I will make it so that she can't get a loan. Once the capital chain is broken, her business will be like a fish out of water, and struggling will be in vain.

Then, I will create a little light of hope for her, like a weak candlelight in the darkness, so that she can see a ray of hope in despair and step into the trap I carefully set for her, and so on..."

Wang Xiong unconsciously increased the strength of his hand holding the phone, and his knuckles turned white from the force. He listened carefully to every word Bai Maogong said. The more he listened, the more shocked he became, and waves of indescribable fear rose in his heart.

It is a fear of the unknown abyss, a fear of the dark side of human nature, and a premonition of an impending tragedy.

To Wang Xiong, Bai Maogong's plan was not as simple as asking Lin Yue to hand over his shares. It was clearly intended to push Lin Youya into a desperate situation step by step, making her exhaust her last bit of strength in despair and struggle, and eventually fall into the trap set by Bai Maogong, with no chance of recovery.

Wang Xiong couldn't help but feel a little confused and reluctant. Although he was hostile to Lin Youya, deep down, he still hoped that Lin Youya could become a chess piece in his hand and be used by him instead of being completely destroyed.

He didn't quite understand why Bai Maogong wanted to kill Lin Youya so ruthlessly. Couldn't he leave some leeway?
As if he had keenly detected the hesitation and struggle in Wang Xiong's tone, Bai Maogong sneered on the other end of the phone. That laugh was full of unquestionable authority and a precise grasp of human weaknesses:

"Don't worry, Wang Xiong, you just want to use her work ability, right? When I push her into a desperate situation, she will serve you obediently like a slave who has lost his freedom.

At that time, no matter what you ask her to do, no matter how difficult or humiliating the task is, she will do it without complaint, just to have a chance of survival in this cruel world."

Wang Xiong's hand holding the phone trembled slightly. He could feel the coldness and determination in Bai Maogong's words. It was a force that could not be resisted. (End of this chapter)
