Chen Fan watched Shang Wushuang with a calm expression.
"I came to the capital for you!" Shang Wushuang blinked and said, "I told you, I'm very interested in you, and we'll meet again."
"Is something wrong?"
Chen Fan frowned and asked.
"Are you just pushing people away?" Shang Wushuang remained unperturbed and said.
Chen Fan said lightly, "We have no connection!"
"Who says we don't?" Shang Wushuang said, "Isn't the Guankou Ghost Market our connection? Besides, how do you know we won't have opportunities to cooperate?"
"If there's nothing else, goodbye."
Chen Fan turned to leave.
"Wait a moment."
Shang Wushuang said, "If you dare to leave, I will publicize your true identity right here and let everyone know that you, the mighty Undefeated Heavenly King, came to this equestrian club in disguise."
"I don't know your specific purpose, but I believe this will ruin your plans!"
Chen Fan's gaze turned chilling.
Shang Wushuang ignored Chen Fan's murderous aura and said, "Don't look at me like that."
"You took Master Ba from the Guankou Ghost Market. That Master Ba is said to have offended some formidable power and has never left the underground fighting ring."
She lowered her voice and said, "If I guessed correctly, the matter you are investigating is related to you killing Feng Qianyuan, the prodigy of the Feng family, three years ago. After that incident, you disappeared for a full three years!"
"Are you investigating me?" Chen Fan's expression darkened slightly.
"Do I need to investigate? What ordinary people don't know is not a secret among the top circles in the capital. How could I not find out?" Shang Wushuang revealed a victorious smile and said, "Actually, I can help you."
"There's no need." Chen Fan refused directly.
"You look down on me?" Shang Wushuang said, "The Shang family is also a martial arts family, standing tall in the outer regions for hundreds of years. Whatever you want to investigate, I believe my family can fully provide you with assistance!"
Chen Fan said lightly, "What is your purpose?"
"There's no specific purpose, just pure curiosity. Of course, you can also think that I have taken a liking to you!" Shang Wushuang said with a smile, "A man like you has immense appeal to women, and I am no exception."
Chen Fan naturally didn't believe her and couldn't be bothered to respond.
"Leave your contact information." Shang Wushuang said, "I'll find you later to discuss in detail. It's always better to have one more friend than one more enemy, isn't it?"
Chen Fan's thoughts raced, and he gave his phone number.
Shang Wushuang took out her phone, saved it, and then dialed it, before smiling, "Alright, I won't force you now. I'll call you later."
Chen Fan did not respond and turned to walk towards the door.
Shang Wushuang's companions had not yet left. Looking at Chen Fan's retreating back, they were in a heated discussion.
Xiang Jingshu naturally left with Chen Fan.
"Wow, Sister Wushuang, who is that man? He looks so arrogant?"
"Sister Wushuang, you're a martial artist. He dares to disobey you, can't you just slap him unconscious?"
"Oh my, Wushuang, quickly tell us, who is this man?"
"..."
"That man, you know his name. I'll tell you about his background next time we meet. I don't believe I can't conquer him!"
Shang Wushuang replied, as if Chen Fan were already her chosen prey. She chatted and laughed as she walked into the club with her companions.
On the other side, Yu Fuguo was also walking out. He happened to see the scene just now, and his gaze fell on the woman in white, a thoughtful expression appearing on his face.
However, he did not approach them, as his status did not allow it, and no one would pay attention to him if he did.
He was self-aware of that.
Once in the car, Xiang Jingshu couldn't help but hum, "Who is that woman? Is her name Shang Wushuang?"
Chen Fan's tone was calm, "As a subordinate, don't ask questions you shouldn't!"
"Hmph, as if anyone cares about your private affairs. I'm afraid it might interfere with the mission!" Xiang Jingshu pouted.
Chen Fan said lightly, "You don't even know the specific details of the mission, so don't worry unnecessarily!"
Xiang Jingshu was angered by his words.
But Chen Fan was right. She really didn't know the specific details of Operation Dawn. All she knew now was that Yu Fuguo was the primary target to follow.
And it was obvious that Yu Fuguo, at his level, was just a small fry. The real big fish were yet to come.
Due to discipline, she couldn't pester Chen Fan for information.
Moreover, the security level of this operation was so high that even if she inquired with her family, she wouldn't get any useful news.
After having Ye Cheng drive him to the Longteng branch, Chen Fan let the two of them leave on their own.
At the company, Chen Fan continued to cultivate his image as a tyrant with a powerful background, who acted with impunity at the branch.
The employees who remained at the company were convinced that he had gotten his position through connections. They were resentful but helpless.
"Mr. Chen, do you think this project is suitable?"
After a while, Deputy Manager Zhao Yaodong knocked and entered, holding a document.
"According to your requirements, there should be no problem securing this investment report. There is room for maneuver!"
Chen Fan glanced at it and said dismissively, "Then apply for funds from headquarters. Don't worry, you won't be shortchanged after the application is approved."
"Mr. Chen, I still suggest you don't do this." Gu Yaodong said, "Your elder is a veteran of the company. As long as you work hard and achieve results, President Han will definitely promote you. Your future in Longteng is boundless, why would you ruin your prospects?"
Chen Fan said coldly, "This is none of your business. If you are dissatisfied, you can report me to headquarters."
"President Han is just a woman, what right does she have to lead Longteng? As for Mr. Long, he doesn't interfere with company affairs at all. My uncle is capable, and the Longteng Group should be handed over to him!"
"Even if I pocket all the funds from this investment plan, who dares to say anything?"
Seeing Chen Fan's arrogant tone, Gu Yaodong was speechless and quietly withdrew from the general manager's office.
Chen Fan watched his dejected back and smiled.
Let's see how this person acts. If he really reports it, the position of manager of the Kyoto branch will be his in the future.
This act of his was naturally a plan tailored for Yu Fuguo.
Or rather, preparing leverage to give to Yu Fuguo.
Only in this way would Yu Fuguo feel that he could control himself!
On the other side, Yu Fuguo, back at his company, sat in his executive chair, tapping his fingers on the desk.
In front of him lay a performance report showing the results of his investment company in the past few days.
His investment company's main business was actually mortgage and lending.
The mass resignation of employees at the Longteng branch had caught his attention from the beginning.
However, it was just a notice.
Until today, when he met Chen Fan, the new branch manager of Longteng, at the club.
Chen Fan's impression of him was young, arrogant, and reckless, but also with a very strong background, possessing immense value within the Longteng Group.
Longteng Group's headquarters were in the south, and its influence in the capital was relatively weak.
However, as one of the top conglomerates in the country, Longteng Group was extraordinarily valuable.
Moreover, this conglomerate often supported the government in certain aspects and cooperated with official agencies in various layouts. In terms of influence and connections, it was second to none in the domestic business world.
Especially the mysterious Mr. Long of Longteng, who had repeatedly intervened in market rescues and had close ties with the government.
If he could plant a pawn in the Longteng Group, he would undoubtedly have made a great contribution and would be more trusted by those above him.
In the organization, his role was called 'Hyacinth,' and his mission was to spread information and identify targets that could be controlled by the organization.
In his opinion, this Chen Fan, young and arrogant, was extremely valuable and a new target that could be completely controlled.
However, this matter required approval from above and must be reported and arranged before proceeding!
After pondering for a moment, he took out a phone he rarely used and made a call.
"Young Master Yu, I have a new prospect here. Shall we discuss it in person?"
"Okay, okay, I'll be over tonight!"
After hanging up the phone, Yu Fuguo took some documents, got up, and left.
