Chapter 297: Helping Hands
An Baiqiang laughed "haha": "The lie is that he is too busy with work and has no time to come." The truth is, he doesn't want to see you. ”
None of the people present expected An Baiqiang to speak so bluntly, they looked at Huo Beixiao with worried eyes, for fear that he would say something out of line because of the anger that would rise, or even make something out of line.
What people didn't expect was that after listening to An Baiqiang's words, Huo Beixiao was not angry, but looked more and more calm.
"Xu Jinnan doesn't want to see me? It seems that he is still haunted by the past...... That's fine, I don't want to see him anyway, so we'll be even. ”
An Baiqiang smiled and nodded: "Although you have all grown a lot better than before, this kind of child's temper has not changed much." That's it, Beixiao, next time you come to D City, I'll gather you together for a meal. Let's even laugh at each other! ”
Huo Beixiao raised his eyebrows: "No problem, I'll listen to your arrangement." ”
"Good! That's it! When he was about to end the conversation, An Baiqiang remembered another thing: "By the way, do you still want to see Duan Ping'an later?" ”
Huo Beixiao nodded: "There is such an arrangement." ”
An Baiqiang lowered his voice and reminded Huo Beixiao: "You have to pay attention, she definitely wants you to help the Duan Group." You'd better not say yes at this point, because their company can't afford the debt now. Once you're dragged in, it's like you're stuck in a bottomless quagmire. No matter how strong you are, you will be dragged down by them in the end. ”
Huo Beixiao thought for a moment, and then said to An Baiqiang: "Thank you for the reminder, I already know it in my heart." ”
"That's good!" An Baiqiang stood up and shook hands with Huo Beixiao to say goodbye.
After seeing off the teacher, Huo Beixiao returned to the conference room. Lu Qiran leaned over to him and whispered, "Mr. Huo, how do I feel that this President An is speaking in a weird way?" ”
Huo Beixiao hooked the corners of his mouth: "That's because he has a ghost in his heart, so he will cross the two worlds of yin and yang when he speaks." ”
Lu Qiran thoughtfully suggested: "In this case, we should be careful to deal with this kind of person to prevent him from causing trouble for us in the future." ”
"It's okay, I've been paying attention for a long time, and he can't make any waves." Huo Beixiao said as he sat down in his seat and instructed Lu Qiran: "Go and invite Duan Ping'an." ”
"Yes!"
Not long after, under the leadership of Lu Qiran, Duan Ping'an came to the conference room. When she saw Huo Beixiao's handsome face, she couldn't help but get excited.
"Hello Mr. Huo! I am Duan Ping'an, the interim president of Duan's Group! Thank you for your first meeting! ”
Huo Beixiao looked at Duan Ping'an's figure and thought that she was one of the few women who could make her unforgettable. He nodded, motioning for the other to sit down.
"Mr. Duan, first of all, I want to thank you and Dr. Fang for curing my wife's illness."
Duan Ping'an hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You're welcome, this is what we should do!" ”
Huo Beixiao shook his head slightly: "In this world, there is nothing that should be done. Your willingness to help proves that you are all good people at heart. Honestly, if you hadn't exhibited this trait, I probably wouldn't have met you. ”
Duan Ping'an nodded very sincerely: "I know that this meeting is an opportunity for Mr. Gu to help me, so I am very grateful to her!" ”
Huo Beixiao raised his hand: "You don't have to thank her, there's no need." It was you who seized the opportunity, and if you want to thank yourself, thank yourself. ”
Duan Ping'an lowered his eyes slightly, not knowing what to say for a while.
After being silent for a while, Duan Ping'an plucked up the courage to say to Huo Beixiao: "Mr. Huo, the purpose of my request to see you this time, you must have already guessed it. Although Duan's Group is not a particularly famous enterprise, it also carries the hard work of many predecessors. I don't want to watch it disappear in my hands...... So I would like to ask you to help the company out of this difficult situation! ”
Huo Beixiao crossed his arms and leaned back: "Mr. Duan, I heard that the Duan Group has now reached the level of insolvency, is this true?" ”
Duan Ping'an replied seriously: "That's true." But that's because I insist on not wanting to sell the rights to Libra Mountain! ”
"Why don't you want to sell?"
Duan Ping'an sighed: "Because that is the only capital that our Duan family may turn around, once it is sold, although it can solve the immediate debt problem, it also means that the Duan Group will never be able to make a comeback." ”
Huo Beixiao sneered: "Do you know? Just ten minutes ago, An Baiqiang, the head of the Chamber of Commerce in your D City, kept telling me not to lend a helping hand to you. He describes your company as a bottomless pit that will never be filled, and if I help you, I will end up unlucky with you. ”
"That's nonsense!" Duan Ping'an stood up angrily and excitedly and said, "President An is Xu Jinnan's teacher, so he will naturally help Xu Jinnan speak!" As the president of the Chamber of Commerce, he can't maintain a neutral attitude at all! ”
Huo Beixiao touched his chin: "You mean, the biggest threat facing the Duan Group at the moment is the Zhou Group from Xu Jinnan?" ”
Duan Ping'an nodded angrily: "Xu Jinnan has always wanted to force us to transfer the management rights of Libra Mountain, and after Zhou Xian's resignation, he put more pressure on us in this regard. Otherwise, I wouldn't have thought to come to you for help. ”
Huo Beixiao said with a smile: "You really found the right person." There is a situation that you may not know very well, Xu Jinnan and I are actually college classmates, and the president An Baiqiang is the teacher of the two of us. ”
"You...... What did you say?! Hearing this, Duan Ping'an sat down as if he had been struck by lightning. She never expected that Huo Beixiao would have such a close relationship with Xu Jinnan. This made the flame of hope that had been burning in her heart shattered in an instant.
Huo Beixiao took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and then asked Duan Ping'an calmly: "Mr. Duan, don't you want to say something?" ”
Duan Ping'an shook her head in despair, she bit her lip, and felt that she had stood up and left this sad place directly.
"Wait." Huo Beixiao looked at the other party's figure, and suddenly spoke: "Since you have nothing to say, then listen to me." ”
Duan Ping'an didn't refuse, but he still twisted his head to the other side. She didn't want to see Huo Beixiao's expression anymore, or rather, she was so sad that she couldn't face the other party's face.
Huo Beixiao didn't care about Duan Ping'an's attitude towards him, he said to himself: "Since your opponent is Xu Jinnan, then I will help with this favor." ”
Duan Ping'an's pupils instantly contracted violently, as if he thought that his ears were hallucinating. She raised her head suddenly and looked at Huo Beixiao with a surprised and expectant gaze. Although she didn't say anything, her expressions and movements all indicated that she wanted to hear Huo Beixiao repeat it again.
