"Do you know about the crime of possessing enormous assets from unknown sources?"
Ye Shishi looked at Shen Lang and said word by word, "The crime of possessing enormous assets from unknown sources refers to special groups who suddenly acquire a huge amount of wealth whose source cannot be explained. This amount of wealth far exceeds their legal income."
"Shen Lang, as an unemployed person like you, suddenly receiving a transfer of hundreds of billions, unless you can explain every single transfer, not only will your money be confiscated, but you will also be thrown into prison."
Ye Shishi snorted, "You should be grateful to me, because I helped you. Otherwise, your consequences would be unimaginable."
"This..."
Hearing Ye Shishi's words, Shen Lang's face instantly sank. He had calculated everything, but he never expected this aspect. It was a miscalculation.
That's right, if it were to be investigated, he indeed could not prove the legality of this money.
As for finding the transferors to testify, don't be ridiculous. Let alone Shen Lang doesn't even remember who those people are, how could he find them and expect them to testify for someone who extorted them for a billion?
Tricky, very tricky.
"Shishi, you froze my account to help me?"
After his expression softened, Shen Lang looked at Ye Shishi with a playful smile and said, "Since when did you become so kind?"
"Shen Lang, don't attribute the worst motives to a gentleman. I have always been kind."
Ye Shishi looked at Shen Lang and smiled, "Moreover, we are friends."
"For friends, I, Ye Shishi, am always loyal and unwavering. I absolutely cannot watch you fall into an abyss, so I must save you."
"Save me?"
Hearing Ye Shishi's words, Shen Lang smiled, "How do you want to save me?"
"I run a bank, so I naturally have my ways."
Ye Shishi said, "This hundred billion is enormous wealth from unknown sources to you, but to me, it only takes a day to turn it into legal income."
"However, although we are friends, I can't help you with such a big favor for nothing."
Ye Shishi smiled charmingly, "A nine-one split, no problem?"
"What?"
Hearing Ye Shishi's words, Shen Lang's eyes widened in disbelief and he said, "My money, you take one tenth, and I can only take nine tenths?"
One tenth of a hundred billion is ten billion.
He worked so hard, and Ye Shishi was about to take away ten billion in an instant. How could Shen Lang accept this?
"Brother Shen, calm down, calm down, don't be so agitated."
Seeing Shen Lang's agitation, Ye Shishi smiled, "The nine-one split I mentioned is that I take nine tenths, and you take one tenth."
"Ye Shishi, you scoundrel! What did you say? Say it again?"
Shen Lang had already found it unacceptable when he heard Ye Shishi taking one tenth. Now, hearing that Ye Shishi was taking nine tenths, Shen Lang's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Don't get agitated, don't get agitated. Perhaps my previous expression was problematic. I'll say it again."
Ye Shishi spoke with a serious expression, "Listen carefully, out of one hundred billion, nine tenths are mine. You can get one tenth, and even then, you'll have to look at my face."
"What? Damn it! That's my money, you take nine tenths, I take one tenth, and I still have to look at your damn face?"
Hearing Ye Shishi's words, Shen Lang slammed the table and stood up, saying, "I disagree."
"Disagree?"
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Ye Shishi picked up her teacup, gently blew on the steam, and slowly took a sip, saying, "The latest amended regulations stipulate that banks have the right to freeze enormous unexplained transfers. If the legal source cannot be clarified within three working days, the bank's securities and exchange commission will intervene in the investigation."
After putting down the teacup, Ye Shishi picked up the purple clay teapot in front of her and slowly poured tea into Shen Lang's cup, saying, "Do you know what this means? It means if I don't unfreeze it for you, you will be investigated, and the consequences will be as I just told you: the hundred billion will be confiscated, and you will be imprisoned."
"One hundred billion. This is because of our friendship. If it were someone else, I would give them at most ten million."
Ye Shishi smiled playfully, "You can think it's unfair, but you have to accept it, because this is the rule."
"You have one minute to tell me, do you accept or not?"
A sharp glint suddenly flashed in Ye Shishi's eyes as she commanded.
"Ye Shishi, you're really something."
After a long pause, Shen Lang said with a depressed expression, "No wonder the outside world says Ye Shishi is a deeply scheming and calculating shrew, who can even scrape two taels of meat from a bone.
"If I'm not mistaken, from the moment you saw a hundred billion appear in my account, you not only thought of freezing my account but even planned how much of this hundred billion to split."
"I thought I had no bottom line in my actions, but I didn't expect you, Ye Shishi, to have an even lower bottom line than me. What is there you can't do?"
Hearing this, Ye Shishi smiled and said, "Shen Lang, let's focus on the matter at hand and don't talk about irrelevant things."
"Alright, I agree."
Shen Lang said with a pained expression, "One tenth is one tenth. It's better than having everything confiscated and being thrown into prison."
"Shen Lang, I indeed didn't misjudge you. You are a smart person."
Hearing Shen Lang's decision, Ye Shishi looked at him and did not hide her admiration, saying, "Actually, we are the same kind of people. We always know what is the most advantageous choice. To be honest, if it were me, I would also agree, but I wouldn't do it in such a short time."
"Good, since you've agreed, I will legalize this money as quickly as possible and then unfreeze your account."
Saying this, Ye Shishi raised her teacup and said, "To our win-win, cheers."
"Cheers—"
Although Shen Lang felt bad, he still managed to keep a hundred billion. He raised his teacup and clinked it with Ye Shishi's.
"Shen Lang, I heard you've been getting quite close to Gu Qinghan recently?"
After drinking the tea in her cup, Ye Shishi looked at Shen Lang and asked playfully.
"She's my sister, is there a problem?"
Shen Lang replied.
"Sister?"
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Ye Shishi smiled, "You're so brilliant, can you really not see Gu Qinghan's feelings for you?"
"I've known Gu Qinghan since I was young. I know what kind of person she is. She's as cold as ice. The reason she's willing to be close to you is definitely not because she considers you a younger brother, but because she has feelings for you."
Hearing this, Shen Lang's expression remained calm, and he said faintly, "Is this all you want to say?"
"Of course not."
Ye Shishi said, "What I want to say is that Gu Qinghan actually has a marriage engagement. Within these two days, the other party will come to Nanling to fulfill the engagement."
"Shen Lang, what will you do if Gu Qinghan's fiancé really appears?"
