Chapter 844 How Much Potential...
“Yunxi, wasn’t this also within expectations?”
Chen Xuan smiled.
Su Yunxi thought about it and agreed.
She had anticipated this day would come, but she hadn’t expected it so soon. It was clear that the development of the Su family in the provincial capital had alerted Kyoto!
“Yunxi, what do we do next?”
Jiang Biyun asked anxiously, “Why don’t I call your father and ask him to come back earlier?”
Chen Xuan said, “Aunt Jiang, don’t worry. Let Yunxi seize the opportunity to acquire the Li family’s assets. We need to seize all available time to unite all our enterprises. Only then can we deal with Su Ning.”
Su Yunxi felt that Chen Xuan’s words made a lot of sense. As long as their own strength increased, Su Ning wouldn’t be able to do anything to them.
The fastest way for their Su family to improve their strength now was to quickly integrate all enterprises and form a complete industrial chain. It would be extremely difficult for Su Ning to suppress them then!
With Li Tianxing’s incident, they could seize the opportunity to annex the Wei family!
However, Jiang Biyun was completely clueless. “The Li family? What Li family?”
She didn’t know about Li Tianxing’s incident yet.
Su Yunxi remembered and explained, “Mom, the head of the Li family, Li Tianxing, has been arrested for murder…”
“Ah? How is that possible?”
Jiang Biyun couldn’t believe it. While there were dark dealings in high society, they usually took protective measures for life-threatening crises, and it was impossible for someone of Li Tianxing’s caliber to be implicated.
Su Yunxi looked at Jiang Biyun’s shocked eyes and recounted what had happened.
Jiang Biyun was greatly alarmed after listening: “Li Tianxing is that ferocious? I’ve met Li Tianxing a few times, how did I not notice?”
As a member of high society, she naturally knew the dirt and darkness within it, but she never expected it to be so dark, and she was still quite surprised.
Su Yunxi shook her head. “I didn’t expect it either.”
Jiang Biyun muttered, “You can know a person’s face, but not their heart.”
After saying that, Jiang Biyun looked at Chen Xuan again.
Clearly, this was another of Chen Xuan’s masterpieces!
She couldn’t help but wonder, how much potential did her son-in-law have?
Afterward, Su Yunxi went to work, while Chen Xuan returned to the bedroom and called Jiang Ning, telling him to be ready for a battle, as Su Ning would likely seize this opportunity to launch an attack.
Jiang Ning laughed. “Don’t worry, I’m prepared. Su Ning has already launched two attacks on the stock market, but I’ve managed to neutralize them all.”
“That’s good.” Chen Xuan nodded.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Xuan leaned back on the sofa, lost in thought.
Outside the window, the wind was rising and the clouds were gathering, signaling the approach of a heavy downpour!
Following the press conference, the entire Jiangnan Province exploded. The four major families were all finished. They had thought the Su family was about to become an invincible behemoth, but they didn’t expect the Su family from Kyoto to arrive in the provincial capital and intend to suppress the Su family.
With the Kyoto Su family backing Su Ning and bringing a massive fortune of 150 billion, half of the merchants immediately defected, leaning more towards cooperating with Su Ning. However, the other half were observing. Merchants pursued profit, and few people would truly uphold loyalty in the face of interests.
It was very late at night when Su Yunxi returned to the villa, and she left again early in the morning with dark circles under her eyes!
After Chen Xuan washed up and had a simple breakfast, he grabbed the contract and rushed to the Wei family.
The Wei family’s building was also located in the city center, not far from the Su family’s building. It took him half an hour to get there.
“I want to see Wei Changzhe!”
Chen Xuan strode forward and went directly to the front desk.
The front desk was a young woman in her early twenties, wearing black-rimmed glasses, a white shirt, and a pencil skirt. She was of average looks.
The front desk lady sized up Chen Xuan and frowned. “I’m sorry, sir, do you have an appointment?”
“You could say that!”
Chen Xuan thought for a moment.
Yesterday, he had told Wei Changzhe that he would deliver the contract in person, so that counted as an appointment, right?
“Sir, may I ask for your surname? I’ll check.” The front desk lady followed procedure.
“Chen, my name is Chen Xuan!” Chen Xuan announced himself.
Upon hearing the name, the front desk lady felt it sounded familiar but couldn’t recall it immediately, so she stopped thinking about it.
“I’m sorry, sir, we don’t have your registration. Who did you make an appointment with?”
The front desk lady, who had been addressing him with respect moments ago, immediately lost her patience and became extremely impatient when she saw there was no appointment.
“I made an appointment with Wei Changzhe!”
Chen Xuan said directly, which almost made the front desk lady drop her jaw!
Generally, those who made appointments usually did so with Wei Changzhe’s assistant or secretary. It was the first time she had heard of someone making an appointment directly with Wei Changzhe.
This guy must be trying to bluff his way in!
She glanced at Chen Xuan and sneered, “I’m sorry, sir, please leave. Our second master Wei is in a meeting and doesn’t have time to see you.”
“Doesn’t have time to see me?”
Chen Xuan frowned. How could he not understand the front desk lady’s intentions?
Normally, this was an excuse to refuse; in reality, they just didn’t want to see him.
“Exactly!” The female front desk lady nodded.
“Alright, then I’ll have to call myself.”
Chen Xuan shook his head helplessly.
The front desk lady was stunned and said disdainfully, “Sir, please make your call to the side so as not to disturb others.”
This kind of broke freeloader wants to call Mr. Wei, just keep pretending!
Chen Xuan directly dialed Wei Changzhe’s private mobile number.
The front desk lady wasn’t lying; Wei Changzhe was indeed in a meeting at the moment. Many people were seated in the meeting room, looking like they were in a large assembly.
Just then, a mobile phone ringtone sounded, piercing the needle-drop silence of the meeting room.
“Whose phone is it! Don’t you know we’re in a meeting?”
Wei Changzhe’s face instantly darkened, and a powerful aura emanated from him.
His cold gaze swept across everyone. Those caught in his gaze felt their scalps tingle and their breathing quicken.
But the ringtone continued…
“Whose phone is still ringing?”
Wei Changzhe’s expression became even more displeased. He had already spoken, yet no one turned off their phones. Wasn’t this an insult to him?
“I’ll ask one more time, whose phone is it? Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude!”
But there was still no response.
He looked at his assistant. “How did you arrange this? Didn’t I say all phones should be turned off? Immediately, now, find out whose phone it is, or your bonus for this month will be canceled!”
The assistant beside him blushed and said, “Second Master Wei, that call is yours…”
Wei Changzhe froze.
The ringtone was the same as his phone’s ringtone…
Wei Changzhe felt his pocket. It was indeed his phone that was ringing, and he felt extremely embarrassed.
But now, he couldn’t care about his embarrassment, because the caller was Chen Xuan!
He quickly answered the phone. “Brother Chen Xuan, you’re here? Excellent! What do you mean no appointment? Did the front desk stop you from coming up?”
He initially wanted to scold the front desk lady, but the front desk lady was just following the rules and hadn’t done anything wrong.
“I’ll call the front desk now… No, I’ll come and pick you up personally!”
After hanging up the phone, Wei Changzhe glanced at the meeting room and immediately said, “Let’s adjourn the meeting here for now!”
With that, Wei Changzhe left the group of executives and rushed out.
The executives exchanged glances, wondering what had happened.
