375: Chapter 375 Reason

"Our Wang family has indeed run into some problems."

In the end, Wang Gang admitted it.

He gritted his teeth and spoke.

He hadn't wanted to say it, but unfortunately, this person was Lin Heng; he couldn't hide anything from him.

Oh?

Hearing this, Lin Heng's brows twitched slightly.

Heh.

He hadn't expected that a little bluffing would make this guy spill the beans.

However, the Wang Corporation having many unfinished projects lately wasn't a big secret.

Rumors had already been circulating about the Wang Corporation for some time.

Lin Heng's guess wasn't without basis.

For a behemoth like Wanheng Real Estate, even the slightest disturbance suggested many underlying issues.

It was just that Lin Heng happened to guess correctly this time.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoxiao quickly fell silent and curled her lip.

She gave Wang Gang a look of disappointment, frustrated that he wasn't living up to expectations.

This guy...

How could he spill it so easily?

If that was the case, how was she supposed to help him?

And how could she benefit from it?

But Lin Heng only gently patted Lin Xiaoxiao's head, showing no intention of blaming her.

Turning his head, he looked at Wang Gang.

"So, what is the matter you've come to us for this time?"

At these words, Wang Gang hesitated.

He looked up at Lin Xiaoxiao, then at Lin Heng.

Lin Xiaoxiao just glared at him, her expression saying that if he spoke of it, she would cut out his tongue and feed it to the dogs.

Wang Gang was naturally startled.

But...

He soon noticed Lin Heng's expression, which was as indifferent as if he were looking at a dead man.

These two siblings... were truly terrifying!

If it weren't for the fact that he was truly at a dead end, he would never have gotten involved with these two.

Soon...

Wang Gang confessed his situation.

"Wanheng Real Estate has a massive deficit; someone fled with the funds, and we didn't notice..."

He looked at Lin Heng cautiously and spoke with a trembling voice.

Soon...

The air fell silent.

No one spoke for a long time.

Lin Heng's eyes narrowed slightly.

"It seems Young Master Wang still hasn't told the truth. In that case, I think our cooperation can end here."

Lin Heng looked perfectly calm.

Yet, through that calm, he spoke the harshest words.

The other party was clearly stunned.

Wang Gang's knees immediately went weak, and he knelt directly on the ground.

"I'll talk... I'll talk!"

"Besides that person fleeing with the funds, Wanheng Real Estate also suffered massive losses due to poor management. After that incident, our previous practice of 'robbing Peter to pay Paul' could no longer be covered up... That's why, that's why I sought out Lin Xiaoxiao..."

Soon, Wang Gang revealed everything he knew.

Hearing this, Lin Heng's brows twitched.

Oh...

So that was it!

It turned out Wanheng Real Estate had just been putting on a brave face while being at the end of its rope; the slightest thing could bring down this behemoth...

The previous situation of "robbing Peter to pay Paul" naturally made their position extremely awkward.

To say they were strapped for cash was an understatement.

This time, because of that Executive fleeing with the funds, a massive hole appeared, and the trick of "robbing Peter to pay Paul" no longer worked.

This successfully became the last straw that broke the camel's back...

Lin Heng smiled.

He knew it.

Wanheng Real Estate had trillions in assets!

A mere person fleeing with funds would only be a matter of a few hundred million; their appetite couldn't be that large.

If it were any larger, the other party wouldn't be looking for Lin Xiaoxiao, but for the people from the Longan Bureau!

So Lin Heng felt from the start that this guy was lying; it was naturally easy to guess.

"Get up."

"There are no outsiders here, and I'm not some high-ranking official; we're all friends."

Lin Heng glanced at Wang Gang, who was kneeling on the ground with snot and tears, and spoke indifferently.

"Okay, okay..."

"Thank you, Big Brother Lin!"

The man wiped away the mixture of tears and snot from his face, stood up quickly, and spoke with gratitude.

However...

Lin Heng simply waved his hand dismissively.

"Don't be so quick to thank me; after all, I haven't said I'll help you yet."

"I'm just not used to acting superior."

This...

Wang Gang had just stood up, but felt he had stood up a bit too early.

He really wanted to kneel back down to Lin Heng!

"Brother... they are Wanheng Real Estate after all. Wouldn't it be great for us to enter and buy at the bottom now?"

"Hey! Stop right there!"

Lin Xiaoxiao wanted to say more to help, but was cut off by Lin Heng.

"Don't you know how deep these waters are?"

"Do you really think entering means making money?"

Lin Heng's expression gradually became serious.

Real estate is a sunset industry now; wouldn't entering be like being harvested like leeks?

And big leeks at that, used as bag-holders for others.

Lin Heng's consistent principle was to spend the money he earned himself; it was absolutely impossible for others to slaughter him!

"But..."

Lin Xiaoxiao had her own thoughts, but Lin Heng gave her a slight wave of his hand.

"Although I've always been at ease leaving all previous assets for you to manage freely, you have to listen to me on this matter."

"Not to mention whether the stolen money can be recovered, even if it is, what would we use to fill such a massive hole?"

Now Lin Xiaoxiao stopped talking.

Hearing this, Wang Gang licked his dry lips.

He gritted his teeth and said:

"Big Brother Lin... don't worry. As long as you help me this time, we definitely won't let you help for nothing once it's done. Rest assured, Wanheng Real Estate will certainly follow your lead!"

But Lin Heng just waved his hand in refusal.

"Anyone can say pretty words; I don't care for them."

"However, if you truly want to cooperate with me, have the person in charge come over, not a guy like you who doesn't even have the final say."

Lin Heng glanced at him indifferently.

His meaning was clear.

Wang Gang...

This second-generation heir simply wasn't qualified.

"I... I understand!"

Wang Gang quickly lowered his head.

He gritted his teeth and quickly turned to leave.

...

Watching his retreating figure, Lin Xiaoxiao broke into a sweat.

She didn't know if this matter would work out...

But looking at Lin Heng, it seemed like it would be very difficult.

"Brother, this was clearly a great opportunity..."

Lin Xiaoxiao's expression was clearly one of complaint.

To be honest, Lin Xiaoxiao had a good head for business and was a total Miser.

As long as she saw money, it was impossible for her to let it slip through her fingers.

To this, Lin Heng only smiled faintly.

"Didn't you see that he wasn't telling the truth? He was hiding things from you, so what else is there to say?"
