Chapter 1409: Even His Biological Father
As Yi Qianmo had arranged, in the days after the kidnapping, the Han Corporation had received a few sanctions from companies under the Mu Corporation, and the Chen family had joined in the brawl too, with their sanctions.
Chen Yichen had picked up a few problems that came up from the end of the Han Corporation during the last few collaborative projects and used them in their lawsuits against the Han Corporation. This placed a strain on the corporation’s resources. The Han Corporation had not been doing well financially since being kicked out of the Big Four Conglomerate Families, and many corporations had cancelled their projects. The numerous lawsuits and fines had added more fire to the hell Han Yaotian was in as the vice-director.
Han Hongbin had a good knowledge of the happenings inside the Han Corporation, but he did not dare to share his plans with Han Yaotian in fear that word would travel in ways he did not want it to.
He could only watch as the stocks of the Han Corporation crashed and they lost millions of dollars. It was a heartbreaking experience.
There was nothing else he could do but wait. He had to wait till the opportunity was right.
Being left in the dark, Han Yaotian was stunned by the sudden attacks from the Chen family and the Mu Corporation. He could only wonder what had happened for the two giants to suddenly strike down on the Han Corporation.
As he waited at the lift lobby, he caught sight of Han Hongbin rushing out from a lift, and he was left even more confused than before.
“Where are you going, dad?”
“Meeting a friend—trying to see if they can help with the company. We have been tight on our cash flow, and you’ve been working so hard every day. I need to think of a way to solve this.”
“Right. I was just thinking about this. We were doing fine for a bit. Why did the Mu and Chen Corporations suddenly make a move? I checked the collaborative projects thoroughly and could not find any big issue, yet the Chen Corporation was insistent, acting as if we had offended them in some way.”
Han Hongbin’s expression stiffened, and his fatigued features seemed fraught with emotion for a moment. Han Hongbin furrowed his brows and straightened his lips with a cough. “Seeing the state we are in now,” he said as he patted Han Yaotian’s shoulders, “these things are normal. Thank you for working so hard lately!” He ended his sentence with a gingerly smile.
Han Yaotian digested Han Hongbin’s conspicuous phrasing and his cryptic expression. He could not help but scoff in his mind. His father was hiding something.
He was right to assume someone in the Han family had offended the Young Commander in some way to evoke the kind of sanctions they were experiencing while the Han Corporation was in recovery.
“Thanks! I’ll do my best!”
As he stepped into the lift and watched his father walk away, the friendliness in his expression was immediately replaced with a chilling glare.
He was still excluded from the family by Han Hongbin. He was only willing to share his plans with Han Wanling. He felt like a chess piece in his father’s hands—only needed when he was useful, and discarded once he had lost his value.
Arching his brow, Han Yaotian laughed to himself. It did not matter who had offended the Young Commander. He had to pull through this rough patch no matter what.
He had not heard from the unit surveying Yun Xi for a few days. It seemed that she had not attended school too. Rumours had it that she departed with a professor to work on a virus vaccination research, so she was nowhere to be found.
“Boss, Miss Yun was spotted in school.”
Han Yaotian immediately pressed the buttons on the lift as soon as he got the call, “Good. I’m on my way.”
He believed it was worth trying to earn some brownie points from Yun Xi. She had a large amount of Han Corporation shares in her hands. If Yun Xi was willing to side with him and let him have these shares, it would be a breeze for Han Yaotian to take over the Han family.
When that happens, he would have the power to kick all those that did not respect him out.
Even his biological father, Han Hongbin, would not be spared.
The Han family would become his property no matter what!
