Chapter 396 - Confrontation and Battle

Upon hearing Huo Xuan mention that he wanted to listen to his opinion, Mi Lai rubbed his palms nervously. Then, he looked up into the man’s eyes and explained indifferently, “Mr. Huo, the conflict between our subordinates and you this time was really an accident. It’s all because of the pressure from other organizations in Southeast Asia that we had no choice but to do this. I think you should consider everyone’s sincere suggestion just now. In that case, it’s more beneficial for everyone’s future development. After all, harmony makes money!”

When Huo Xuan heard this, his fingers continued to knock rhythmically on the wooden dining table in front of him. He raised his eyes and glanced at Mi Lai coldly. He smiled and said, “Sure, since you’ve already asked, it’s impossible for me not to give you face. How about this? We’ll split the business in Southeast Asia into two. I don’t care about the four regions. After you’ve divided the geographical location, give me a map of the area. I want half of the business. You can distribute the rest according to the original arrangements!”

Upon hearing Huo Xuan shamelessly make such an excessive request in their territory in Country N, someone immediately slammed the table and stood up, loudly expressing his displeasure with the man’s words. “Mr. Huo! What do you mean by this? Your suggestion is too much. I hope you have some self-awareness and see whose territory you’re in now! If we can’t reach an agreement now and we part on bad terms, I believe the subsequent development of the matter is not what you and I are willing to see!”

These threatening words came one after another, but Huo Xuan didn’t take them to heart at all. He picked up the glass in front of him as if nothing had happened and took a sip of the red wine that emitted a mellow fragrance. He looked up coldly at the man who had slammed the table and stood up. “Why? Do you think you can threaten me in Southeast Asia and Country N?”

After a pause, Huo Xuan placed the wine glass back on the table and gently raised his hand to move his wrist bone. His entire body emitted a cold aura as he continued unhappily, “If anyone wants to take action, you can try. I, Huo Xuan, have been doing business in Southeast Asia for the past few years. There are really many people who say that they want to take my life. As the saying goes, don’t bite off more than you can chew!”

“You!” That person’s anger instantly surged to the top of his head after being provoked by Huo Xuan. His face was red as he said anxiously, “Don’t go too far!”

Seeing that they were about to fight as they spoke, Mi Lai stood up nervously and quickly walked two steps in front of the man. He looked at Huo Xuan respectfully and asked in a low voice, “Mr. Huo, we naturally know how powerful you are. However, is there any room for discussion on this matter? Can you be magnanimous and give us more benefits?”

Upon hearing this, Huo Xuan looked at Mi Lai coldly and frowned tightly. “What I said just now is already a suggestion after I take a step back. In Southeast Asia, you guys have hurt my brothers. If I take a step back, how can I face them?”

“You should be glad that I didn’t ask you to pay with your lives for hurting my brother. Otherwise, if we don’t come to an agreement today, you can forget about profiting from the resources and business I have in my hands in the future!”

When Huo Xuan said this, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically. Although Huo Xuan hadn’t been in the Southeast Asia market for long, his actions were swift and decisive. In just a few years, he had expanded the Huo family’s business to the four regions.

Therefore, no matter how dissatisfied these people were with Huo Xuan’s domineering actions, they didn’t dare to openly clash with him.

Mi Lai lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment. A few minutes later, he seemed to have thought of something and looked straight into Huo Xuan’s eyes. He threatened in a low voice, “Mr. Huo, you and your subordinates are indeed very capable. However, now that the matter has come to this, although we can’t do anything to you, we can attack the little girl who came with you yesterday!”

“Mr. Huo, do you not care about her safety anymore?”
