Chapter 19 Chen Zhuo, Legal Representative of Hengxing Investment

"Brother..."

A long-lost smile appeared on Chen Zhuo's face, and the depression from being kicked out by the Company vanished at this moment.

Beside him, Tan Xiaolei walked up and slapped Chen Ang on the shoulder, "Brother, I've missed you to death."

Chen Ang smiled, "Let's go, we'll talk in the car."

Walking out of the high-speed railway station, Chen Ang pressed the car key, and a brand-new black bmw x5 on the side of the road flashed its lights.

Tan Xiaolei was stunned for a moment, circled the car, and asked, "Whose car is this?"

"Just bought it."

"You bought it?" Tan Xiaolei's eyes widened, "Where the hell did you get the money?"

Chen Zhuo was also stunned; he remembered that just last month, Chen Ang was still driving that beat-up Magotan.

"Get in the car first." Chen Ang smiled, opened the car door, and got in.

Along the way, Tan Xiaolei kept asking, but Chen Ang only said they would know once they arrived.

The car drove into the underground garage of the Bin City Financial Center. The two were confused and followed Chen Ang into the elevator to the twenty-third floor, their faces full of surprise.

Lawyer Shen's law firm was as bright and clean as ever.

Pushing open the glass door, that figure with soft curves but a crisp and efficient aura was already waiting in the conference room, with several documents laid out on the table.

She was wearing a dark blue suit today, her hair pulled up to reveal a smooth forehead, her eyebrows lightly brushed, and her lips painted in a soft color.

Tan Xiaolei was stunned for a few seconds, then leaned close to Chen Ang's ear and asked, "Xiao Ang, when did you start eating so well?"

"Get lost."

Muttering a curse, Chen Ang turned to nod at Lawyer Shen, "Lawyer Shen, let's begin."

After speaking, he pulled Tan Xiaolei directly toward the chairs on the other side.

Lawyer Shen glanced at him, nodded slightly, and then pushed the documents to the middle of the table.

"Mr. Chen Zhuo, please sit. There are some documents here that require your signature."

Chen Zhuo was completely confused. He didn't understand what this very beautiful woman in front of him was talking about. He could only turn to look at Chen Ang, and seeing Chen Ang nod, he sat down, looking slightly nervous.

"The first document is the legal representative change agreement for Hengxing Investment Management Co., Ltd. From today on, you are the legal representative of Hengxing Investment."

Chen Zhuo was dumbfounded, stunned, "Legal representative? Me?"

"Yes."

"The second document," Lawyer Shen pushed over another file, "After the acquisition of Yuda Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd. is completed, you will serve as the supervisor, responsible for supervising the finances."

When this was said, before Chen Zhuo could react, the water cup in Tan Xiaolei's hand on the sofa almost dropped.

"Company? That Company Chen Zhuo was at?" He turned to look at Chen Zhuo, then back at Chen Ang, his face full of disbelief.

Then he leaned close to Chen Ang again, baring his teeth and glaring at Chen Ang, saying, "You really hit it big, brother. You said even if you had to sell your ass, you'd make sure I drove a Land Rover..."

Chen Ang smiled; the joke between brothers from years ago was actually quite interesting now that it was brought up.

He turned his head and said softly, "Don't worry, just because you've helped me out from time to time, I couldn't possibly let you be a gigolo just to buy me a Land Rover."

Hearing this, Tan Xiaolei chuckled and said nothing more.

In front of the desk, Chen Zhuo looked down at the documents, his fingers trembling slightly.

He had been a purchaser at the Jiangning branch of the Company for four years and had just been fired. Now his brother was telling him that he had bought the Company.

No matter how he thought about it, it felt like a dream. What was their family's financial situation? How could this be possible?

"Brother, where did you get the money?" Chen Zhuo looked back at Chen Ang, his voice a bit hoarse.

Chen Ang leaned back in the chair, "I did some business and made a profit. Just rest assured."

He didn't explain the specific situation. It wasn't that he didn't trust his brother, but the numbers were too large, making it hard to explain. Besides, nine more payments hadn't arrived yet, so it was too early to say.

Chen Zhuo was silent for a while, finally withdrew his gaze, picked up the pen with some difficulty, and signed the documents.

His hands were still shaking when he signed, but his eyes were a little red, because he knew why his brother wanted him to be the legal representative.

Although he hadn't told his family about his work issues, sometimes when the brothers talked on the phone, they would vent their frustrations to each other.

At this moment, he thought Chen Ang's purpose in acquiring the Company was because of him, and a wave of warmth rose in his heart.

He thought of his father, Chen Zhonghui. They were brothers from the same mother, bound by kinship, yet the difference in their characters was like heaven and earth.

For a moment, he didn't know whether to feel lucky for himself or pity for his old father.

Lawyer Shen packed up the documents, stood up, and said, "The acquisition of the Company will be settled this week. During the transition period before Zhou Yuda retires, I suggest Mr. Chen Zhuo participate throughout the whole process."

"Alright." Chen Ang stood up and looked at Chen Zhuo, "Don't tell Mom and Dad about these things yet. We'll give Dad a surprise when the time comes."

Chen Zhuo nodded vigorously, a bit more of a smile on his face. He finally remembered why Chen Ang had said so firmly on the phone that he could handle all the debts.

Tan Xiaolei rubbed his hands on the side, "Alright, you brothers are done, what about me? You didn't bring me here just to be an audience, did you?"

Chen Ang glanced at him, "We'll talk about your matter later. You two sit for a while; Lawyer Shen and I still have some things to discuss."

Having said that, he ignored Tan Xiaolei, stood up, and followed Lawyer Shen to the office next door.

"Tomorrow I will take Chen Zhuo to complete some procedural matters. By the day after tomorrow at the latest, the first sum of US dollars in the New Hengtai account will be transferred back."

"Also, this is the contract for you to hire me as your long-term legal advisor." Reaching out to hand over a stack of contracts, Lawyer Shen sat down beside Chen Ang with a cup of coffee in one hand, her clear eyes continuously observing Chen Ang's subtle expressions.

As if he hadn't noticed her staring at him, Chen Ang took the documents and began to read. A few minutes later, he signed his name and looked up, "I'll have to trouble you to put in more effort in the future, Lawyer Shen. Once the money comes back, we'll complete the acquisition of the Company, and your retainer fee will be paid at the same time."

"It's no trouble at all... Rather, I should thank the boss for his generosity." Lawyer Shen's mouth curved, and her eyebrows also bent into crescents.

"I've always been willing to pay, as long as the job is done well." Picking up his teacup and taking a sip, Chen Ang added, "Do you have any acquaintances here who specialize in divorce lawsuits?"

Lawyer Shen reined in her smile, hesitated for a moment, and then met Chen Ang's gaze, "I do have one, but how should I put it... let me ask first and see."

"As long as you have one, that's fine. I'll wait for you to schedule a time. Remember to keep it confidential." Chen Ang didn't pay much attention to the change in her mood.

"No problem." Lawyer Shen didn't discuss this further but said, "By the way, the president of China Merchants Bank in Bin City just suggested wanting to meet the boss of Hengxing Investment. Do you think you should go, or should Chen Zhuo show up?"

Chen Ang glanced at her, quite surprised, then nodded in agreement, "I'll go."

The 24.9 million USD returned from New Hengtai was deposited at China Merchants Bank. Such a large sum of money would definitely be eyed by others, not to mention the more than one billion to follow. Chen Ang's first thought was that confidentiality must be maintained.

Chen Ang didn't trust Chen Zhuo with this; he knew his younger brother had been worn down by life over the past few years, losing all his spirit, and he didn't know what would happen later.

Lawyer Shen looked down at the time and then asked Chen Ang, "It's about time, shall we go directly?"

"Let's go, it's better to make contact early." Chen Ang stood up directly.

Leaving the office, he tossed the bmw x5 keys to Tan Xiaolei, agreed on a place to eat that night, and then left with Lawyer Shen.
