Chapter 415: Chapter Four-Hundred and Fifteen: Found

Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

There were missed calls from Dawn, John, Shi Nian, Liang Han, Lily the maid… and the list went on.

Xi Cheng dialed Shi Nian’s number. The doorbell rang right when Shi Nian picked up. “Where are you?” Xi Cheng could hear Shi Nian ask urgently as he opened the door at the same time.

John’s blood-covered figure, face bruised and swollen, tumbled on him. “John! Who did this? Who beat you up like this?” Xi Cheng went to help John up, and his phone slid to the ground.

“Xi Cheng!” Shi Nian’s voice blared from the floor. “Where are you? Are you currently in danger? Say something!”

John leaned against the wall and strugglingly sat up. He agitatedly said, “Boss! You sold the company! You sold ALL of them! Why? WHY?”

John began to cry. His tears mixed with blood made pink trails down his cheeks. Xi Cheng couldn’t believe his eyes and ears. He heard John’s every word clearly but couldn’t make head nor tail of what he was saying.

Dazedly, Xi Cheng subconsciously showed concern over John’s injuries—it was the only thing his brain chose to focus on right then. “John, who beat you up?”

John winced from his wounds, and seeing Xi Cheng’s reaction, he just shook his head with a bitter smile and pointed at the phone on the ground. “Mr. Shi. Ask Mr. Shi.”

Xi Cheng picked up the phone and yelled at Shi Nian on the other end, “Hello? Shi Nian, you there? F*ck! Someone beat up John! Someone actually beat up John! If I find out who did it, I’ll kill him!”

“Xi Cheng, why did you transfer your company?” Shi Nian ignored Xi Cheng’s words and asked gravely. He knew that, right now, what’s most important to John wasn’t his injuries. ‘Xi Cheng’s the only one ignoring the main problem and fiddling while Rome burned,’ Shi Nian mentally sighed.

Xi Cheng was dumbfounded. “Transfer the company? What are you talking about? Which company has been transferred?”

Shi Nian forced himself to patiently answer, “You transferred the ownership of all five independent subsidiary companies under your name overnight. You didn’t mention anything or notify anyone about it in advance. What exactly is this about? What happened?”

“What?! No! I didn’t transfer any of my companies! Why would I? Are you kidding me? That’s impossible! My companies are doing fine. Why would I transfer them? The Xi Corporation’s shareholders would kill me if I did that.” Xi Cheng stood up and stared at the wall opposite him dazedly, disregarding John’s predicament in his bewilderment, reflexively answering Shi Nian’s questions.

Shi Nian went silent for a moment before stating, “Try and think a bit harder. What did you do recently? If you don’t remember how this happened, your shareholders will bury you alive. I’m at the Xi Corporation headquarters right now. Xi Cheng, if even you don’t know what happened, that’s more so the case for everyone else. Think, Xi Cheng! How did you make such a basic mistake?”

“I didn’t! There’s no way! I really didn’t!” Xi Cheng replied, slightly distraught.

“Then what are you loitering around for? Come to the Xi Corporation’s headquarters and give everyone an explanation!” With that, Shi Nian hung up. Xi Cheng stared blankly at his phone, dumbstruck, feeling like his brain was having problems keeping up.

John got up with much difficulty. “Young Master Xi Cheng—” he began.

Xi Cheng finally snapped back to his senses and grabbed John’s shoulder. “What happened? What’s going on? Tell me, what on earth happened?”

John’s heart completely sank. His boss still didn’t know what had happened, or how, but the transfer contract he’d signed, there in black ink on white paper, had come into effect. The contract was currently on the company’s office desk; John had seen it with his own eyes—he had personally verified the signature was indeed his boss’s handwriting.

Before the door he knocked on opened, John even thought his boss might’ve been kidnapped and coerced and had no choice but to sign away the companies as a delaying tactic. If that were the case, John would risk everything to rescue him, call the police, and ask for help.

Then, it turned out his boss was safe and sound and totally unaware. He actually had no idea about the transfer of his own assets!

John was beyond tears. Years of work experience and training allowed him to suppress the myriad of emotions in his heart and succinctly inform Xi Cheng about the company’s matters.

“How is that possible?” Xi Cheng cried out as he retreated and leaned against the wall opposite John.

“I called you, but your phone was switched off. I called Mr. Shi, and he asked me to come out and look for you, but they refused to let me go and even beat me up! Young Master Xi Cheng, why on earth did you sign those documents? Why didn’t you tell us you signed such documents?” John couldn’t hold it in anymore and started crying.

“I didn’t! I didn’t sign any such thing! I didn’t!” Xi Cheng muttered.

Gu Man came out, having gotten dressed. “Oh? What was going on? Why all the waterworks?”

Xi Cheng suddenly turned toward Gu Man. In a flash, he finally understood. He rushed forward, grabbed Gu Man’s neck in a stranglehold, and held her against the wall. “What documents did you have me sign? What did you make me sign when I was p*ss drunk?” he roared at her. “You did this! B*tch! You did this?! To me?”

Gu Man’s face went from white to green and then purple. She couldn’t break free from Xi Cheng’s grip, nor could she speak.
