After catching his breath, Li Xijin asked his secretary to buy a plane ticket to the United States.

"Okay, Chairman."

The secretary nodded, took Li Xijin's identification, and left.

"Damn Ni's Capital, if I can't afford to mess with you, can't I at least avoid you? If you want my Taiwan TSMC, go find me in America if you dare."

As Lee Seok-jin was about to leave Taiwan, he couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

In Li Xijin's view, he would rather remotely control TSMC than sell his company to someone else.

A few minutes later, the secretary returned.

"when's the flight?"

Li Xijin asked subconsciously.

"Chairman, there's been a problem."

The secretary, looking grim, said, "They said you're restricted from leaving the country and can't buy a plane ticket."

"What? A travel ban?"

When Li Xijin heard this news, he was stunned again; it was completely unexpected.

In his original imagination, Ni's Capital might be very powerful, but its methods were limited to assassination.

However, it now appears to be much more than that.

In that instant, Li Xijin trembled all over, fully realizing the enormous gap between himself and Ni's Capital.

"Chairman?"

The secretary noticed that something was wrong with Li Xijin and asked him about it.

But Li Xijin had no time to pay attention to his secretary; he was consumed by fear.

Just then, a tall man, completely clad in black armor, walked over; it was Snake Eyes.

Snake Eyes walked straight up to Li Xijin and handed him a cell phone.

"Mr. Li, I think you must be very confused right now and have many questions you want answered."

"Don't rush, I've booked a table at Taoyuan Hotel, waiting for you to come and we can chat at your leisure."

A charming, feminine voice came through the phone.

"You, who are you?"

Lee Seok-jin asked, panting heavily.

"Zhuang Lingyan".

Zhuang Lingyan said calmly.

Upon hearing those three words, Li Xijin was completely stunned.

As a Taiwanese entrepreneur, Li Xijin has a deep understanding of the Taiwanese leadership and knows exactly who Zhuang Lingyan is.

Zhuang Lingyan had already shown her talent long ago, but she didn't make any big moves until recently. She rose to prominence and overcame all obstacles to become a core figure in the emerging political party.

"So it's Ms. Zhuang. I can't refuse her kind invitation. It seems I have no choice but to go."

Li Xijin smiled bitterly.

Faced with a series of actions, Li Xijin had no chance to catch his breath, let alone retaliate.

Now Li Xijin has no other thoughts but to see Zhuang Lingyan and see what she really wants.

"Mr. Li, those who understand the times are wise."

Zhuang Lingyan hung up the phone after speaking.

Lee Seok-jin paused for a moment, then looked at Snake Eyes standing silently to the side, shook his head helplessly, and said to his secretary, "Go back to the company immediately and prepare the documents. I want to sell the company as a package."

"Chairman..."

The secretary was shocked upon hearing this and wanted to offer some words of advice.

"Don't say anything, just do as I say."

Li Xijin waved his hand wearily. At this moment, he knew that he could not fight against Ni's Capital. The other party was an unreasonable behemoth that could decide his life or death in an instant.

In this situation, even Lee Seok-jin had no choice but to cooperate obediently.

Otherwise, if this continues, he might suffer the same fate as those high-ranking officials who had "accidents."

"Yes, I understand."

Seeing that Li Xijin was very determined, the secretary had no choice but to agree.

"Then let's go."

Lee Seok-jin said to Snake Eyes.

Snake Eyes silently turned around, took Lee Seok-jin away from the airport, got into a car, and drove off.

Taoyuan Hotel.

Snake Eyes led Lee Seokjin to a private room on the second floor, then left the room and stood guard at the door.

In the box.

Li Xijin saw a table laden with food and a figure standing by the window with her back to him—it was Zhuang Lingyan.

"Mr. Li, you've arrived."

Zhuang Lingyan turned around, looked at Li Xijin, and said with a smile, "Please sit down."

"Ms. Zhuang, I..."

Li Xijin did not sit down, but seemed to want to say something.

However, she was interrupted by Zhuang Lingyan before she could finish speaking.

"Mr. Li, please don't worry. There is still one person who has not arrived. We can talk about it later."

Zhuang Lingyan smiled as she spoke, her warm and infectious smile making one feel as if bathed in a spring breeze.

This is one of the reasons why Zhuang Lingyan was able to become the core of the party so quickly. She is a natural orator, and every move she makes can stir the emotions of those around her, which is especially useful during elections.

Li Xijin sighed, not daring to say anything more, and could only sit down in his seat.

For Li Xijin right now, every minute and every second is extremely agonizing.

Half an hour passed like this.

The door to the private room opened again.

Li Xijin immediately turned around, saw the person's appearance clearly, and was so frightened that he retreated repeatedly.

The person who arrived was none other than Haitang.

This time, Haitang didn't wear a women's suit, abandoning the business style and returning to her usual bright red trench coat.

"Ms. Zhuang, is she the other person you mentioned?"

Li Xijin looked flustered and asked.

"Sister Yan, I'm sorry there was a bit of traffic on the way, I'm late."

Haitang glanced at Li Xijin, then walked up to Zhuang Lingyan on her own and said.

"It's not late, please have a seat."

Zhuang Lingyan said.

Seeing the two of them looking so familiar, Lee Seok-jin was momentarily speechless.

"Oh, Mr. Li is here too?"

At this moment, Haitang seemed to have just seen Li Xijin and said in surprise.

Li Xijin looked embarrassed.

"By the way, I wonder what Mr. Li's decision is? Has he changed his mind?"

Haitang then asked.

"It's been changed! It's been changed!"

Lee Seok-jin quickly replied, "I'm willing to sell TSMC in Taiwan; we can sign the contract right away!"

After all this turmoil, Li Xijin finally understood that he had no way to compete with Ni's Capital; they could crush him with a single finger.

Even now, Li Xijin doesn't understand why Ni's Capital insisted on acquiring TSMC, when there are many companies in the industry that are much stronger than TSMC.

"Very good, it seems that Mr. Li is also a pragmatic person."

Haitang said with a smile.

"There's just one thing I don't understand: why are you so incredibly powerful that you insist on acquiring TSMC in Taiwan?"

Li Xijin, wanting to die knowing why, asked.
