The building was already deserted, with only the remnants of the relocation left behind. Through the glass, one could see the scenes inside, all chaotic.
One could imagine that many people had already fled this place when the company was acquired.
Fortunately, the building still had power, so the group didn't have to navigate the floors in the dark.
Jiang Wen shielded his aura and followed Zhang Jiao into the building, gazing into its depths. He could feel a surging demonic energy.
Clearly, the demon Wang was here.
"It should be here," Jiang Wen said.
"Ah? It's here? Then, should I still go?" Zhang Jiao asked cautiously.
"Go ahead, we'll protect you," Li Mu, who was beside her, reassured her.
"Okay." Zhang Jiao finally overcame her fear and mustered the courage to step into the place she thought she would never return to.
The corridor lights flickered on, accompanied by various tapping sounds.
In the darkness, only the boss's office remained lit, as if something were sitting inside, quietly waiting for their arrival.
Zhang Jiao stepped forward and pushed open the office door, the bright light blinding her.
Inside the office, a young man with long hair was playing with something in his hands.
Hearing someone enter, he looked up. Seeing Zhang Jiao, he grinned, revealing an eerie smile.
"You've finally deigned to come," the long-haired youth said in a hoarse voice. "I thought you were going to hide forever."
"If you hadn't withheld my ID card and passport, and forbidden me from leaving by plane, I would have left long ago!" Zhang Jiao suddenly felt unafraid and vented her anger at the long-haired youth.
"Did your Wuye Consortium destroy my company just for me?"
Zhang Jiao asked in confusion, finding the whole thing absurd and bizarre. That one of the heirs of the major consortiums in an overseas country could use his wealth to make her years of hard work go down the drain just because he took a fancy to her was an unimaginable blow to any entrepreneur.
"Yes, we just took a fancy to you," the long-haired youth said with a smile. "If you had yielded earlier, perhaps your company could have done even better."
"Go to hell!! I would never be a dog of your Wuye!" Zhang Jiao could no longer hold back. Even though she knew the consequences of offending the Wuye Consortium, she couldn't suppress the anger in her heart at this moment.
She wanted to curse them properly with the most vulgar language, to let these arrogant people know that even if the Wuye Consortium had a lot of money, it was nothing but dog shit in her eyes.
The long-haired youth didn't care about Zhang Jiao's swear words, and smiled even more happily at her anger.
"You really are good material," the long-haired youth said meaningfully. He was about to take a few more steps forward when he found his way blocked by two people.
The long-haired youth frowned in displeasure, scrutinizing the two: "You are the bodyguards she hired?"
"Exactly, so please stay away from our Ms. Zhang," Jiang Wen said with a polite smile. He and the others had completely concealed their auras, so no one could see through them unless they were a great demon with thousands of years of cultivation.
Smelling the faint stench of corpses on the long-haired youth's body, Jiang Wen was sure that Wang was hiding inside him.
This play is quite interesting, Jiang Wen thought with amusement.
"How much did she give you? I'll double it. As long as you leave here, the Wuye Consortium will not pursue anything you've done. If you continue, you might lose your lives. Is it worth risking your lives for a few hundred thousand?" The youth's movements were quite stiff, indicating that Wang hadn't fully adapted to the body. But even so, the appearance and words he put on still had some seductive power.
If it were an ordinary person, they would have already started weighing the options in their mind after hearing the youth's words. After all, everyone in the overseas country knew about the Wuye Consortium. Upon receiving such news, most people would take the money and leave.
The long-haired youth had seen this situation too many times, including couples who claimed to be inseparable. But the way they said they would live and die together one moment and then took the money and left the next was too funny. He had always thought this was an interesting project.
This is humanity, this is the greedy and timid creature. With just a little coercion and inducement, their disguised faces can be torn off. It really is a pleasant thing. The youth thought to himself, and couldn't help but take out a large bill and hold it in his hand.
Since coming here, he had become very curious about the things in his hands. It was just a piece of paper, but why did it have such omnipotent power? It seemed to be able to do anything, as long as there was enough of it. And those things that consumed demonic power to fight and kill were far less effective than using money.
He, the demon Wang, after understanding the charm of money, used his power to subdue people much less. Instead of forcibly grabbing people and leaving clues, it was better to spend some money to make them follow willingly.
"How is it, have you considered it?" Wang asked again, confident that the two in front of him would definitely take the money and leave.
"Ms. Zhang offered us a price of two hundred million each, can you afford it?" Jiang Wen asked with a smile.
"How much?" Wang asked, his smile fading.
"Two hundred million, and not in the currency of the overseas country," Jiang Wen replied again.
"Impossible! Where did she get so much money!" Wang was somewhat disbelieving, knowing what two hundred million meant. Her company had already gone bankrupt, and even the money in the bank had been frozen by him. Where would she get the extra money to pay bodyguards?
"Really? If you transfer the money now, we'll leave immediately," Jiang Wen said, pretending to be surprised.
"Hmph, I'll transfer it to you now. And hurry up and leave," Wang said, picking up the phone and calling the Wuye Consortium. Perhaps hearing his absurd request, the other side of the phone couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
After all, taking out eight hundred million at once, even if the Wuye Consortium was strong, it would still be affected to some extent.
It was a pity that the finance people of the Wuye Consortium were facing a demon. He had never felt bad about taking such cheap advantages.
He ordered the finance department to transfer the money immediately. If they couldn't do it, he would make sure they never appeared in the company again.
Upon hearing this, the finance people on the other side of the phone also panicked. Finally, after adjustments, a huge sum of eight hundred million was gathered on the bank card in the youth's hand.
"How is it, if you leave, this money is yours," Wang said with a smile, holding the bank card.
"......" Jiang Wen silently looked at the bank card, nodded, and then stepped aside.
In the silence, Zhang Jiao's face showed an extremely astonished expression. Perhaps she had never expected things to turn out this way.
She seemed to have been abandoned......
