Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1045: Chapter 1045: The Incident of That Year

”Mr. Bai, here is the contract we prepared. Please take a look,” Shen Yu quickly walked up to Bai Xiaosheng, smiling while handing over the contract.

Behind him followed two people carrying black briefcases, dressed in neat suits, with a respectful demeanor.

”This is our company’s legal officer Zhang and financial officer Liu. They will help you address any questions you might have,” Shen Yu continued, introducing the two men to Bai Xiaosheng.

The two employees bowed respectfully to Bai Xiaosheng.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled at them and nodded his head.

After taking the contract, Bai Xiaosheng quickly looked it over, then took the pen and swiftly signed his name.

After doing all this, Bai Xiaosheng smiled and handed the two copies of the contract back to Shen Yu, ”I’ve looked it over. There are no issues.”

Shen Yu was startled, not expecting Bai Xiaosheng to read and sign so quickly.

He then smiled and said, ”Then, thank you for your trust, Mr. Bai!”

Shen Yu thought that Bai Xiaosheng had merely skimmed the document as a formality, showing trust in the project.

Little did he know, this was just Bai Xiaosheng’s style.

With the assistance of Red Lotus, Bai Xiaosheng could scan the document once, and all information would be imprinted in his mind.

With Red Lotus’s help, he could also find any traps or loopholes in the contract within minutes.

In this case, the contract indeed had no issues.

It seemed that Shen Yu was very wary of the Senior Affairs Officer!

He didn’t want to make any underhanded moves and invite trouble.

Meanwhile, Bai Minghang and his wife watched their son handle a multimillion contract so casually, which inevitably worried them a bit.

Lin Weiwei noticed their reaction, quietly walked over, and bent down to explain a few things to the elderly couple.

Over the past year, Bai Xiaosheng had reviewed contracts hundreds of times, if not more.

His speed at spotting issues might even surpass that of professional lawyers.

Lin Weiwei was very confident about that.

After her explanation, Bai Minghang and his wife’s expression returned to normal.

On the other hand, Chu Yue felt that Bai Xiaosheng’s status was extraordinary; his friends were major business magnates.

Boss Shen Yu was all submissive along the way.

There shouldn’t be any foul play in the contract.

And she was right in her thinking.

”Weiwei, please go handle the procedures and transfer the funds,” Bai Xiaosheng looked at Lin Weiwei, smiling and specifically instructed, ”Use the second card!”

Lin Weiwei immediately understood and went to proceed with the two officials.

The second card referred to by Bai Xiaosheng was another bank card, distinct from his Zhenbei Group bank card.

That card was a similarly world-class gold card, specially applied for by Zhengdong Province via the Lu Family’s special channels.

Zhengdong Province’s Shengsheng International had allotted Bai Xiaosheng a substantial share of stock, generating a considerable amount of dividend each year, with most being invested in Zunbai Zhisheng, and a small portion going into this card.

Later, the profits from Zunbai Zhisheng, as well as Xue Lian Wan He, after deducting company expenses and expansion, a small portion of the funds would be transferred to this card for Bai Xiaosheng, the boss, to use.

At the moment, although only a small fraction of the funds was flowing in.

It was about a hundred million!

This card had more than enough to handle over ten million in property payment.

While Lin Weiwei was processing with Beiyu Group’s legal and financial officers, Bai Xiaosheng and Shen Yu chatted leisurely.

Both sides tacitly avoided discussing Zhenbei Group.

When Lin Weiwei returned with the necessary documents, Bai Xiaosheng pushed his teacup aside, stood up, and said his farewells.

Shen Yu made a symbolic attempt to detain him but then arranged for a car to send the Bai family members off.

In passing, he also gave a wheelchair to Li Qiuyun.

Compared to a multimillion-dollar business deal, this ”small gift” was really nothing.

Bai Minghang and his wife didn’t make much of a fuss about it.

Watching the car carrying the Bai family members drive away, Shen Yu stood at the entrance of the marketing center, his eyes flickering uncertainly.

Shortly afterward, he hurriedly returned to the project, as if eager to attend to something.

On the way, Bai Minghang and his wife asked about the house’s selling price.

There was no need to hide it, and Bai Xiaosheng straightforwardly disclosed it.

Thanks to the business magnates of Zhongjing who helped in bargaining and their bookings at Jingyu Courtyard, Shen Yu had offered an internal supreme discount, a cost price of ten million.

A house that claims to be worth forty to fifty million was bought for only ten million.

This discount was indeed astounding.

Bai Minghang and his wife were also taken aback.

Of course, he was genuinely happy.

As they approached the entrance of the neighborhood, the Bai Family members got out of the car and walked home.

On the way, Lin Weiwei suddenly asked, ”Xiaosheng, that Shen Yu, he was actually once an Affairs Officer!”

”Mm, I even sent a message to have someone check into him,” Bai Xiaosheng said.

Due to the sensitive nature of the information about Red Lotus, Bai Xiaosheng switched his phrasing.

Before Lin Weiwei could speak, Bai Minghang laughed, ”You young folks are discussing work, us old folks might as well not listen, we’ll go ahead.”

Involving work meant it could possibly be business secrets.

According to Bai Minghang’s character, he chose to remove himself.

Bai Xiaosheng just smiled at that, ”Alright then, dad, you go ahead.”

Bai Minghang walked ahead with Li Qiuyun.

Bai Xiaosheng and Lin Weiwei walked slowly behind.

”Shen Yu, three years ago, was an Affairs Officer. Unfortunately, at that time, due to financial issues, he was targeted by another Affairs Officer,” Bai Xiaosheng said.

”And then, Shen Yu was removed from his position?” Lin Weiwei asked.

”It wasn’t that simple!” Bai Xiaosheng laughed before continuing.

”An Affairs Officer is equivalent to a provincial industrial leader; it’s no small position!”

”Significant events we’ve encountered, like Elder Chen’s brothers, were directly overseen by Elder Xia, expedited without following the usual protocol.”

”As a New-type Affairs Officer, I’m also a creation by Elder Xia to revitalise the Affairs Department, so our past investigations also had a bit of expedited handling, with processes moving very quickly.”

Bai Xiaosheng said, ”But actually, when an Affairs Officer faces issues, there needs to be evidence gathering, questioning, review, and so on, a whole series of processes.”

”Shen Yu, to say the least, was impressive, withstanding accountability at the same level for a whole year, and it wasn’t until three years ago that he wasn’t brought down by that Affairs Officer.”

”Then, another Affairs Officer took action, drove him into a corner within a month, forcing him to admit to the issues, and leading to his dismissal!”

Bai Xiaosheng seemed contemplative.

Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but nod.

So that was it; Shen Yu was actually a disgraced figure expelled by the corporation.

”Speaking of what came after, that Affairs Officer who took down Shen Yu in a month, you must be familiar with him,” Bai Xiaosheng continued.

Lin Weiwei’s gaze sharpened.

”It is Officer Lin Yu— the benchmark of Affairs Officers!” Bai Xiaosheng spoke gravely, ”It was a well-known incident at the time!”

”And from that moment on, Lin Yu’s career took off like a bamboo shoot after the rain!”

”If there had been anyone to rival him before, no one could match his performance after that. Lin Yu truly secured his position as the benchmark!”

”Heh, this Shen Yu actually ended up making Officer Lin Yu who he is!” Lin Weiwei laughed.

Bai Xiaosheng nodded, still thoughtful.

”Xiaosheng, what are you thinking about?” Lin Weiwei asked, noticing his demeanor.

Bai Xiaosheng shrugged, ”Nothing much...”

”I’m just curious how, after leaving the corporation, Shen Yu rapidly established a real estate company and achieved such success in three years.”

Lin Weiwei’s gaze grew intense.

Bai Xiaosheng then laughed, ”Just curious. He’s already left the corporation, it has nothing to do with us, it’s not our place to investigate him.”

Could Shen Yu’s fear of the Senior Affairs Officer stem from being handled by Lin Yu?

That answer seemed reasonable, yet somewhat wanting.

Bai Xiaosheng shook his head.

Since they had no crossing paths, it wasn’t worth overthinking.

”Let him be, if he crosses the line, the law will handle him,” Lin Weiwei said with a laugh.

Just as Bai Xiaosheng nodded, his phone rang.

”Elder Xia?!” Bai Xiaosheng looked at the name, taken aback.

The elder had been quite busy lately, contacting only via WeChat if nothing urgent came up, he would never call otherwise.

Bai Xiaosheng answered the phone.

From the other end, Xiahou Qi’s voice came through.

His tone carried a bit of seriousness.

”Xiaosheng, are you busy? I have a matter that requires you to make a trip!”

Bai Xiaosheng was taken aback.

What urgent matter?

Indeed, it necessitated dispatching a Senior Affairs Officer.
