Nowadays, Chen Jin Chao's primary adversary is Li Tian Ce.
Previously, Li Tian Ce had deliberately humiliated Chen Jin Chao, so Chen Jin Chao would not easily turn over a new leaf.
He always remembered this debt.
"Are these all backed up?" Chen Jin Chao inquired.
Qian De Shui chuckled, "Of course. How could I dare to keep only one copy of such valuable information? Only by letting the enemy know it is ubiquitous will they feel fear."
"Well done," Chen Jin Chao said.
"It's a pity I can no longer promise you anything."
Upon hearing this, Qian De Shui's smile gradually faded. He said to Chen Jin Chao with deep emotion, "Young Master Chen, you shouldn't be dejected now. If I wanted wealth and status, this list alone would be enough to make me a distinguished person. But my ambition is far from that simple. I want to assist Young Master Chen in reaching the pinnacle!"
"This is my dream, and also President Li's entrustment."
"I cannot let President Li down."
When Qian De Shui was in trouble, it was Chen Jin Chao who helped him.
Later, when Qian De Shui was lost in life, it was Li Qiu Tao who pointed him towards the right path. Qian De Shui was filled with gratitude towards this family.
Chen Jin Chao took a deep breath. Great kindness needs no thanks.
"There's no point in saying any more pleasantries. I can only say that I will not let your efforts go to waste. You should set off for Jiang Nan today. I fear some desperate people might try to harm your life." Chen Jin Chao said, and Qian De Shui nodded repeatedly.
As Qian De Shui rose to leave, Chen Jin Chao suddenly called out to him.
"What is it?" Qian De Shui asked, confused.
Chen Jin Chao inquired, "Do you know where my father went?"
"Your father?" Qian De Shui was stunned, not immediately comprehending.
"The President Li you mentioned is my biological father. There are many old matters involved that are inconvenient to explain. You only need to know the outcome," Chen Jin Chao said patiently. Qian De Shui's pupils contracted sharply. It took him a while to recover. A look of respect appeared in Qian De Shui's eyes. "President Li said he was going to a very distant place, perhaps never to return.
"But I believe he will return."
Chen Jin Chao felt a sense of loss but said, "Regardless, thank you."
"I'll see you off."
Chen Jin Chao personally escorted Qian De Shui to the airport and only left after watching him board the plane.
On his way home, Chen Jin Chao received a call from Yu Huai Qing.
Chen Jin Chao parked the car on the roadside and asked, "Third Brother, what made you think of calling me?"
"Chen Jin Chao, something big has happened at the company. Why don't you come and take a look?" Yu Huai Qing's tone was anxious, and his breathing became rapid.
"Third Brother, what exactly is going on? Speak slowly!" Chen Jin Chao frowned.
Yu Huai Qing gasped for breath and said in a deep voice, "It's like this, Li Tian Ce just arrived at the company with a group of people and is currently in the conference room discussing matters with Meng Zhi. It's been an hour already, and there's been no news from the conference room. My subordinates said they could hear arguments coming from inside. I intended to go in and check, but I was stopped by Li Tian Ce's men!"
Chen Jin Chao's heart sank, vaguely guessing what was happening.
Coming back to his senses, Chen Jin Chao said coldly, "Alright, I'll be there immediately. It will take about half an hour."
"If anything happens, notify me immediately."
After receiving Yu Huai Qing's assurance, Chen Jin Chao ended the call with peace of mind and started the car engine, heading towards Gou Chen Group headquarters.
Damn Li Tian Ce.
He actually dared to lay his hands on Yu Meng Zhi!
This was something Chen Jin Chao could absolutely not tolerate.
This step.
Chen Jin Chao would never retreat again.
One step back meant a step back at every turn.
Because Chen Jin Chao was burning with anxiety, the usual thirty-minute drive only took twenty minutes. Chen Jin Chao parked his car at the entrance of Gou Chen Group headquarters. As soon as he got out of the car, Yu Huai Qing rushed to meet him, his face filled with anxiety.
"Chen Jin Chao, you've finally arrived," Yu Huai Qing said.
"My wife and my elder brother-in-law have entered the conference room, but there's still no news. Hurry and go in to see what's happening."
Yu Huai Qing's wife and elder brother-in-law were Bai Mei Zi and Bai Zong Min, respectively.
"I know. Thank you for your hard work," Chen Jin Chao patted Yu Huai Qing's shoulder.
Yu Huai Qing paced anxiously, unsure of what to do, now pinning all his hopes on Chen Jin Chao to turn the tide.
Xu Jin Song also walked over and said to Chen Jin Chao with some guilt, "I should have protected President Yu, but I was blocked by Li Tian Nan at the door. I'm no match for Li Tian Nan. Li Tian Nan has improved significantly in the past three years, while I've essentially remained stagnant."
Chen Jin Chao calmed himself down and said to Xu Jin Song, "You've done very well. Leave the rest to me."
"Can you handle it?" Xu Jin Song hesitated.
"Perhaps it's better not to go in?"
Yu Huai Qing's eyes widened in alarm, but Xu Jin Song quickly gave him a look. Yu Huai Qing belatedly realized that the current Chen Jin Chao was no longer the same as before, and barging into the vortex of trouble now might endanger him.
Understanding this, Yu Huai Qing stammered, "I think we might be too impulsive. Should we wait a bit longer?"
Chen Jin Chao did not understand why Yu Huai Qing had suddenly changed his mind and immediately shook his head, "There's no time to delay. I need to go and see the situation now; we can't miss the best opportunity."
Xu Jin Song also chimed in, urging Chen Jin Chao to calm down.
Looking at their earnest pleas, Chen Jin Chao gradually realized their concerns. He couldn't help but smile wryly, "I understand why you've suddenly changed your minds. Are you afraid that Li Tian Ce will humiliate me?"
Their expressions were unnatural, and they did not deny it.
"Heh heh..."
Chen Jin Chao's laughter was desolate. "Yu Meng Zhi is my wife, and I cannot stand by and watch her be bullied. Even if I am just a useless person now, I will do my utmost to protect her. Third Brother, you should understand my thinking very well."
Yu Huai Qing thought of himself.
After a moment of hesitation, he nodded and said, "I will unconditionally support your decision."
Xu Jin Song then added, "Alright, one cannot always remain rational in life. You just go in. If anything unexpected happens, I will do my best to protect you. Even if I'm not Li Tian Nan's match, they'll have to step over my corpse before they can get to you."
Chen Jin Chao felt the profound care from the two and nodded, "Good. Take me to the conference room now. I want to meet Li Tian Ce personally."
The three of them arrived at the floor where the conference room was located.
As they reached the door of the conference room, Li Tian Nan, who was guarding the entrance, blocked their way. Xu Jin Song was prepared for a fierce fight.
Chen Jin Chao looked up at Li Tian Nan, their gazes clashing in the air!
But clearly—
Li Tian Nan's aura had overpowered Chen Jin Chao.
Chen Jin Chao had no power to retaliate.
Even so.
Chen Jin Chao still coldly spat out a single word.
"Scram!"
