"Xiaohan, I told you not to pop the champagne at halftime. You said it was a sure thing last week, so what happened now?"
Han Chao hung his head. "President Li, it's my fault. I never expected the higher-ups at Xinyue Group to actually approve terms like that."
Li Yang's expression was grim as his index finger tapped lightly on the desk. Han Chao hadn't seen this coming, but Li Yang had a feeling it might happen. If Zhang Chun went to bat for them, they'd have a chance. From the looks of it now, that must be what happened. 'It seems Yang Hui's interests are very tightly bound to his,' he thought.
"Chat up some people at Xinyue Group over the next few days. Find out what happened with that anonymous tip. And you know what I mean by 'find out,' right? Don't just go asking like an idiot. Listen more. Try to figure it out from the gossip they're spreading. Don't ask a single direct question. Got it?"
