In the Chi family residence, the atmosphere in the hall was heavy and oppressive.
Chi Feng's eyes were fixed intently on the contract before him, as if glued to the paper, unable to look away. Each word on the document shimmered with an enticing glow, drawing his thoughts deep into its contents.
Chi Mu Jiu quietly observed his focused expression, and her earlier worries dissipated like mist. She knew that the weight of this contract was significant enough to compel him to seriously consider the request she was about to make.
After a long silence, Chi Feng finally lifted his head slowly. A complex emotion flickered in his eyes as he asked in a low voice, "What do you want?"
The air seemed to freeze around those words, pressing heavily upon the entire living room.
Chi Mu Jiu felt a surge of joy within her but expertly masked her emotions, keeping her expression neutral. She slightly raised her chin and looked at him with unwavering determination, responding slowly, "The contract was given to me by him."
Chi Feng immediately understood who she was referring to—the man who had been inseparable from his daughter and carried an air of mystery about him.
Hearing the figure of "hundred million," Chi Feng's heart stirred with unease. How could someone of such humble status possess such an immense sum?
Images of their encounter that day flooded back into his mind. The man had stood tall and imposing, exuding an indescribable aura. His movements were agile and precise, as if honed through rigorous training. The pressure he emanated was undeniable—a kind of invisible force that inspired both respect and apprehension.
Chi Feng's gaze darkened as he pondered privately; this man's identity was likely not simple at all.
As for why Chi Mu Jiu refrained from mentioning Du Hang Yan's name directly, it was because she did not want to bring more trouble upon him. Du Hang Yan was an outsider who had helped her significantly this time and had also provided support to the Chi family.
Given Du Hang Yan's status, revealing too much information about him would not be beneficial for him at all. Chi Mu Jiu understood well that business was like a battlefield, fraught with treachery and danger.
In this world filled with conflicts of interest, one could easily fall into an irretrievable abyss. Du Heng was weary of his singular identity and did not wish to put himself in danger due to a moment's negligence.
"I want fifty-one percent of the shares of the Chi family."
Chi Mu Jiu gently set down her teacup. Her tone was calm, but her words detonated like a bomb, leaving Chi Feng slightly taken aback.
"What did you say? You want shares from the Chi family?"
Chi Feng could hardly believe it; he never expected Chi Mu Jiu to use this as leverage in their negotiations.
"As for whether or not you give them, that is your decision. You have already seen my sincerity."
Chi Mu Jiu looked directly into her father's astonished eyes and spoke frankly.
Chi Feng tightened his grip on the contract in his hands, his expression growing increasingly serious.
Chi Mu Jiu was quite certain that her father would agree to her terms. The allure of the contract from the Ye family was simply too great for Chi Feng to resist.
It was not merely a business contract; it was the key to unlocking countless opportunities, a crucial step forward for the Chi family in the business world.
After a moment of contemplation, Chi Feng finally said, "I can agree to your terms, but Mu Jiu, what do you need the Chi family's shares for?"
Chi Mu Jiu met her father's gaze, knowing he had already guessed her intentions. His question was merely an invitation for her to articulate her reasons.
She lifted her chin slightly and replied earnestly, "The fruits of my mother's labor can only be inherited by true members of the Chi family."
Her eyes reflected a deep longing and respect for her mother.
"Rest assured, Father, once I acquire the shares, I will not hinder any development of the group. I only want the shares; I will not interfere with governance."
