Best friend turned enemy? Marrying the villain, if she runs, I'll run too.

This move, cutting off the enemy's supply line from the ground, is absolutely brilliant!

If it weren't for the fear of affecting the negotiations, Meng Tang would have burst out laughing on the spot.

He truly deserves to be called the main villain in the book, fully embodying the capitalist's pursuit of profit and avoidance of harm.

It is indeed quite difficult to get a piece of meat from Meng Deqian.

So Song Guanting took a different approach and set his sights on Meng Yurou.

Sure enough, although Meng Deqian's expression was not good, he was clearly somewhat swayed.

“But these shares are, after all, what I gave to Yu Rou a long time ago. If I give them all to Xiao Tang, Yu Rou might be sad. How about... we split it into five percent, with Yu Rou only taking five percent?”

“But Xiaotang already has 25%, which is second only to me in the company, Guanting, what do you think…”

Meng Deqian wanted to get back another 5%, but Song Guanting wouldn't give him that chance.

His words were brief, almost a laugh, but also a cold sneer: "Father-in-law, when I produce the contract, I'm not negotiating with the other party, I'm informing them, understand?"

The young man's tone remained casual and ordinary, but his imposing aura, like dark clouds pressing down on a city, made Meng Deqian dare not even breathe.

Meng Deqian's hands trembled slightly as he shakily wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"I understand, I understand. Guan Ting, you've thought this through very well."

Song Guanting moved one of his long, slender fingers again. "Ten minutes are almost up. If you, father-in-law, still want to consider it, then let's pretend that our conversation never happened."

Seeing that Song Guanting was about to leave, Meng Deqian panicked.

Anyway, it wasn't his shares that were being taken. As for Meng Yurou's portion, he can just give it to her. At worst, he can compensate her with a villa or cash.

However, if the advertising space project with Brilliant Department Store is missed, that would be the biggest loss for Qiannuo Media.

Meng Deqian acted decisively, immediately grabbed a pen, and quickly signed his name on it.

"Guanting, the agreement has been signed, so what about the bidding qualification..."

Assistant Zhou smiled and said, "Mr. Meng can just read the announcement tomorrow. Since Mr. Song has promised, he will naturally keep his word."

Before Meng Deqian could say anything more to Song Guanting, Song Guanting had completely lost patience.

She got up and straightened the slightly wrinkled hem of her clothes.

Then, a long, slender, jade-like hand reached out towards Meng Tang.

"Tangtang, let's go home."

Meng Tang looked up at the man who was looking down at her and reaching out his hand.

For a fleeting moment, my heart skipped a beat.

Come back home.

It is a familiar yet unfamiliar word.

Meng Tang never considered this world in the book as her home. After transmigrating here, she was prepared to never return to reality.

So she and her best friend worked hard to make money, just waiting to save enough so they could live happily ever after as rich women.

The moment Song Guanting uttered the word "home" to her, she felt an indescribable sense of peace.

It's as if as long as this man is there, even if the sky were to fall and the earth were to crack, he would be there to protect them.

Meng Tang placed her hand in his palm without much hesitation.

Song Guanting gathered his hands together, his large palms easily enveloping her entire delicate hand.

"Guanting, are you leaving already? The banquet isn't over yet, why don't you stay a little longer..."

Meng Deqian also wanted to take Song Guanting on a tour of the guests, so that the subsequent bidding would go more smoothly.

But Assistant Zhou stepped forward and blocked Meng Deqian.

"President Meng, President Song's time is very precious. He was able to take this time to come over in person, all because of his wife. I hope President Meng can understand."

As they were talking, Song Guanting had already led Meng Tang away.

Meng Deqian didn't pursue the matter further, since he had already achieved his goal.

Meng Yurou, who had been waiting at the corner, saw Song Guanting come out and originally wanted to go up to him to leave a good impression.

But before she could take a step, she saw Meng Tang following Song Guanting out.

The two were almost side by side, but upon closer inspection, one could see that their fingers were interlocked.

They were so close, like a loving couple.

How could this be? The Song family didn't value this marriage at all. Not only did they not hold a wedding ceremony, but Song Guanting didn't even show his face on the day of the wedding.

In just three short months, how could Meng Tang possibly change Song Guanting's opinion of her?

No, that can't be possible; it must be an act.

That's right. Song Guanting is a businessman, so naturally he needs to maintain a perfect image. Nothing is more suitable than being a perfect husband with a harmonious marriage.

Meng Tang also saw Meng Yurou and deliberately raised an eyebrow at her in a provocative manner.

"I forgot to tell you, my dear sister, I wish you a memorable birthday today."

Meng Yurou forced a smile, "Happy birthday to you too, sister."

But Meng Yurou still felt a little unwilling and glanced in Song Guanting's direction.

But Song Guanting didn't even lift his eyelids. After Meng Tang greeted him, he took her hand and left, without giving Meng Yurou a single glance the whole time.

Meng Yurou watched the two figures leave angrily, clenching her fists in resentment.

Just you wait, she won't let Meng Tang laugh for long!

"Yu Rou."

At this moment, Meng Deqian came out of the VIP room and looked at Meng Yurou with a hesitant expression.

"Dad, have you and your brother-in-law finalized the business deal? Is your brother-in-law willing to help Qiannuo?"

Upon seeing Meng Deqian, Meng Yurou instantly put on a smile, went to his side, and affectionately took his arm.

"Of course we agreed. If there are no unforeseen circumstances, the project for the advertising space at Brilliant Department Store is practically secured."

If Qiannuo Media can successfully go public through this project, it will be a guaranteed profit for Meng Yurou.

After all, she owns 10% of the shares; she could make a fortune without even lifting a finger.

"That's great..."

Before he could finish speaking, Meng Deqian sighed.

“Yu Rou, I just transferred 10% of your shares to Meng Tang.”

Meng Yurou's smile froze instantly, completely shattering and becoming impossible to maintain.

"Dad, what...what did you say?"

Meng Deqian was also helpless: "Song Guanting only agreed to give Qiannuo a chance to enter the market by allowing Meng Tang to own 30% of the shares. Dad had no choice but to accept it."

"But Yurou, don't worry. Once we win this project and Qiannuo goes public, Dad will buy you the best house in the city center. We can buy as many as you want."

"After this conversion, it's about the same as your original 10% share. Don't worry, Dad won't treat you unfairly."

As he spoke, Meng Deqian patted the back of her hand affectionately to comfort her.

But how could Meng Yurou be willing to exchange shares for a house or cash?

If Qiannuo Media can successfully go public, as long as you hold shares, you can just sit back and count your money. It's a continuous stream of money, much more profitable than stocks.

Where are the houses and cash that appreciate slowly that can be compared?

"Dad, I don't want the house, I just want the shares..."
