Chen Rulong stormed out of the party and returned to his presidential suite.

"A-Gui, stay here. The rest of you, get out!"

Chen Rulong sat down on the sofa, still seething with anger.

"yes!"

A group of retainers withdrew.

Luo Changgui poured Chen Rulong a glass of warm water and brought it over, comforting him, "Master, don't be angry. You're ill; you can't afford to get angry."

Chen Rulong took the water glass but didn't drink it. He said thoughtfully, "Something's not right. Chen Yun seriously injured Commissioner He's son, and he's still in the hospital!"

"But not only did Commissioner He not hold a grudge against Chen Yun, he was as obedient as a grandson in front of Chen Yun. This is very strange!"

Luo Changgui nodded: "I also feel something's not right!"

Chen Rulong narrowed his eyes. Without Chen Yun's presence to influence his emotions, he regained his usual composure and slowly analyzed, "For a seasoned veteran like Commissioner He to be so obsequious to Chen Yun, there are probably only two possibilities."

Luo Changgui: "Which two?"

Chen Rulong said, "One possibility is that Chen Yun's identity is extremely powerful, so powerful that Commissioner He is afraid. So even if Chen Yun injured his son, he wouldn't dare to utter a word and would have to be very polite to Chen Yun and try to please him in every way."

Luo Changgui scratched his head: "Didn't we already investigate? Besides Long Pingting as his moneybag, Chen Yun only has Lin Le as his henchman. The rest of his friends are local wealthy people like Tang Shirong and Liang Chenglong. That's not enough to make Commissioner He so afraid, is it?"

Chen Rulong nodded: "So the other possibility is more likely."

Luo Changgui: "Hmm?"

Chen Rulong said, "I suspect that Chen Yun has some irrefutable evidence of Commissioner He's illegal and disorderly conduct, and has grasped Commissioner He's Achilles' heel, which is why Commissioner He is as cowardly as a grandson in front of Chen Yun."

Luo Changgui first widened his eyes, then nodded: "This is very likely. This old servant also thinks that the young master must have something on Commissioner He."

"Although this old servant also hopes that the young master used his powerful status to force Commissioner He to bow down, a rational analysis suggests that it is more likely that the young master has something on Commissioner He."

After Luo Changgui finished speaking, he suddenly realized that he had referred to Chen Yun as the young master again, and he looked at Chen Rulong with some guilt.

Two days ago, Chen Rulong sternly ordered his subordinates not to call Chen Yun "Young Master" anymore, as a sign of a complete break with Chen Yun.

At this moment, Luo Changgui subconsciously addressed Chen Yun as "Young Master," and he was a little flustered, afraid that the master would be furious.

To Luo Changgui's surprise, Chen Rulong did not seem angry.

Chen Rulong slowly said, "Yes! I also think the second possibility is the most likely."

Luo Changgui couldn't help but say, "Master, should I send someone to investigate again to find out if the young master's status is so powerful that Commissioner He is in awe of him, or if the young master has something on Commissioner He's hands?"

Chen Rulong waved his hand: "No need. It doesn't matter if it's a black cat or a white cat, as long as it catches mice, it's a good cat."

"The same goes for Chen Yun. Regardless of whether he has a mysterious and powerful identity or has something on Commissioner He to control him."

"None of this changes the fact that he has won against me in our recent encounters."

Luo Changgui hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

Chen Rulong sighed, "Although tonight is just a preliminary hearing and the final verdict won't be out for another three days, I have a feeling that the operating rights for Zhonghai Port will eventually belong to Zhonglong Group."

"We've completely lost to that kid this time."

"Let's leave a few senior executives to await the results, and head back to Beijing tomorrow!"

Luo Changgui was surprised: "So fast?"

Chen Rulong said calmly, "Every extra day I stay in Zhonghai, that woman in the capital won't feel at ease."

“Last time, she sent Xiao Wenbing to Zhonghai to deal with Chen Yun.”

"If I stay in Zhonghai for a few more days, she will become even more suspicious, and who knows what crazy things she will do to that kid Chen Yun!"

Luo Changgui looked up in shock at Chen Rulong, whose temples were gray and whose face was weathered: "Master, so you've always cared about the young master all along..."

Chen Rulong's lips twitched, a smile that was both mocking and self-deprecating: "It's no use regretting what I did wrong before."

Luo Changgui hurriedly said, "Master, why don't you humble yourself and apologize to the eldest young master? The eldest young master may seem cold, but he has a warm heart. If you are willing to apologize to him, repent to his mother, and restore their status as mother and son, the eldest young master will definitely forgive you..."

"Ah Gui!!!"

Before Luo Changgui could finish speaking, he heard the master call out to him loudly.

He stopped speaking and looked up at Chen Rulong in astonishment.

Chen Rulong's temples were gray, his face was thin, and he looked unwell; he was the very image of a hero in his twilight years.

Chen Rulong said slowly, "The only person I feel guilty about is Chen Yun's mother! I don't think I have any guilt towards this kid. I did kick him out of the family, but wasn't he already 16 years old at that time?"

“It doesn’t matter if he hates me, whether he wants to avenge his mother or take back the wealth that rightfully belongs to him.”

"I will wait for him in the capital!"

"Let him defeat me fair and square with his true strength."

"At that time, he could take away the Chen family's wealth and the Tianjiao Group openly and legitimately!"

"Instead of me begging him for forgiveness and begging him to come home! Even if I let him inherit the Chen family, he wouldn't be able to hold onto it, and he might even meet a tragic end!"

Boom!

Chen Rulong's words struck Luo Changgui like a thunderbolt.

The old man is getting old.

Neither the Chen family nor the Tianjiao Group can be truly controlled by the patriarch.

The Chen family and Tianjiao Group have now been sidelined by that woman Xiao Wenwei. Moreover, Luo Changgui has heard some gossip that Xiao Wenwei has a lover, who is said to have a very powerful background, even surpassing that of the master.

If the eldest son is not capable enough, even if the master hands over the Chen family business to the eldest son to inherit, the eldest son may not be able to keep it!

They might even be guilty of possessing a treasure and meet a tragic end.

In an instant, Luo Changgui finally understood the master's predicament and his good intentions.

The master's visit to Zhonghai was ostensibly for the Zhonghai Port, but in reality, it was for the eldest son.

The master probably wanted to test the young master's abilities and see if he was capable of inheriting the Chen family business.

It must be said that, so far, the master is still satisfied with the young master's performance.

But it's too early to say whether to hand over the family business to the eldest son!

Just as the master said, if Chen Yun wants to take back what belongs to him, he should show his true strength and make a big splash in the capital!

Only by defeating the master.

Only by defeating Xiao Wenwei can the eldest son truly be qualified to inherit the Chen family business.

Luo Changgui wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and said softly, "Master, this old servant understands. I will make the arrangements in a moment. We will return to the capital tomorrow and wait for the young master to come back!"

...

The party has ended.

Long Pingting drove Chen Yun back to the island in the middle of the lake.

She asked Chen Yun, "Young Master, it's still early. Would you like to come in and have a cup of tea?"

Chen Yun recently clashed with his biological father, Chen Rulong. Although he won both times, he didn't feel the satisfaction of revenge he had imagined. Instead, he felt somewhat lost.

Faced with Long Pingting's invitation, he calmly waved his hand and said, "No, I'm a little tired and want to go home and rest early."

Long Pingting replied respectfully, "Yes, Young Master!"

Chen Yun returned to Villa No. 1.

The living room light was still on; Shu Tangyin hadn't gone to sleep yet and was waiting for him to come back!

Instantly, Chen Yun felt a warmth in his heart, as if the weariness and fatigue on his body had been dispelled by this warmth. His handsome face, which had been somewhat haggard, regained its smile. He put his hands behind his back and walked into the house with light steps...
