The capital city.

President's Office, Tianjiao Group Building.

Xiao Wenwei, wearing a light blue embroidered cheongsam, is talking to her son Chen Kai.

Xiao Wenwei, smoking a slender women's cigarette, said calmly, "Xiao Kai, ever since we announced that Dr. Sun Yuchuan would be leading his team of medical students to join our company and work with us to develop a cancer-specific drug..."

"Our company's stock price surged in response!"

"It also received investment from several financial tycoons, raising 200 billion yuan."

Chen Kai grinned and said, "Mom, it's all thanks to your excellent leadership, especially your spreading the news of Dr. Sun's cooperation with us in advance. That was a brilliant move, and the effect was immediate!"

Xiao Wenwei's eyes revealed a hint of worry as she said, "Everything has two sides, a good side and a bad side."

"I leaked the news in advance, and although the stock price went up, I also secured financing."

"But Dr. Sun is still hesitant and has not yet decided to cooperate with us."

"If this matter is not resolved quickly, once people find out, our Tianjiao Group will be embroiled in negative public opinion, our stock price will plummet, and those big investors who invested in us will withdraw their investments one after another. At that time, we will be in real trouble."

Chen Kai stopped laughing and asked nervously, "Mom, what should we do?"

Xiao Wenwei said irritably, "What else can we do? Of course, we have to speed things up, finalize this matter, and get Dr. Sun to make up his mind to join our research and development team and work with us!"

At this point, she looked at her son and said meaningfully, "Xiao Kai, whether or not you can convince Doctor Sun to cooperate with us depends on you."

Chen Kai's eyes widened, and he pointed at his own nose: "Me?"

Xiao Wenwei said, "That's right!"

"As far as I know, Dr. Sun is a legendary doctor in the military, and many of his students are academicians."

"But he was a man without desires or wants."

"He is neither greedy for fame nor profit. No matter how much money we promise, it may not be enough to convince him to join our R&D team."

Chen Kai said weakly, "Mom, even you can't understand Doctor Sun, how am I supposed to?"

Xiao Wenwei smiled and said, "Don't be in a hurry, let me finish."

"Although this Dr. Sun is without desires, based on my understanding, he does have concerns in his heart."

Chen Kai became interested: "Oh?"

Xiao Wenwei said, "Dr. Sun worked at the General Hospital of Military Medicine for decades. Although he possesses unparalleled medical skills, his family life was not happy."

"He neglected his family because he was working on the front lines at the General Hospital of Military Medicine for a long time."

"He rarely saw his family. When his wife was sick and needed surgery, he was too busy to come back and perform the operation, which led to the failure of his wife's surgery and her death."

“His daughter hated him very much, believing he was the murderer who killed her mother, so she severed ties with him and even changed her surname.”

"This became a lifelong pain for him!"

“He has always wanted to make it up to his daughter. If you, Xiao Kai, can date his daughter or even marry her, he will definitely agree to help us develop a cancer treatment without hesitation.”

Chen Kai's expression was strange: "Mom, so you were planning to have me seduce his daughter!"

Xiao Wenwei laughed and said, "That's exactly right!"

Chen Kai wanted to refuse.

Xiao Wenwei took out a photo, handed it over, and said with a smile, "Don't refuse yet. His daughter is a great beauty. It's said that she used to be the school beauty. Many princes and noblemen in Beijing wanted to pursue her, but they couldn't!"

Chen Kai curiously took the photo, and after just one glance, he was immediately amazed.

It turns out that the beautiful woman in the photo has bright eyes and white teeth; she is indeed very pretty.

Even in Beijing, a city teeming with beautiful women, she would be considered a goddess!

Xiao Wenwei explained, "This daughter of Doctor Sun changed her surname because she blamed Doctor Sun for her mother's death. She is now called Cheng Xilei."

"Son, I'm giving you a task: win Cheng Xilei over in the shortest amount of time."

Chen Kai looked at the beautiful woman in the photo, his heart fluttered, and he grinned, "Yes, Mom!"

Just then.

Wang Shuang knocked on the door and came in, his face full of anxiety. "Madam, young master, something terrible has happened."

After saying that, he recounted how his second uncle had encountered setbacks in Zhonghai and had been severely punished by Chen Yun.

Xiao Wenwei and her son were stunned after hearing this.

Chen Kai was both shocked and furious: "That Chen Yun actually broke Second Uncle's leg. It seems he's determined to return to the capital and fight us to the death."

Xiao Wenwei said, "Xiao Kai, I'll deal with Chen Yun. During this time, you just need to focus on pursuing Miss Cheng Xilei and get her. Don't worry about anything else."

Chen Kai replied, "Yes!"

Little did anyone know, at that very moment, Cheng Xilei was having dinner with several close friends at a restaurant.

They were also talking about Chen Yun.

Cheng Xilei's pretty face was filled with worry as she sighed to her close friends, "Sisters, I've waited so many years and finally got news from Chen Yun, but he told me that he's planning to bring his fiancée back to Beijing to get married. Can you believe how unlucky I am?"

Upon hearing this, the group of girlfriends immediately started chattering excitedly.

"Cheng Xilei, the Chen Yun you're talking about, is he the young master Chen you had a crush on back in school?"

"So all these years, you rejected so many suitors, and remained unmoved even by Yang Hongwei's advances, just to wait for Chen Yun?"

"You're way too infatuated!"

Cheng Xilei said quietly, "What's the use of being infatuated?"

"I offered my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shone on the gutter!"

Several of Cheng Xilei's close friends also felt sorry for her.

Someone comforted Cheng Xilei.

Some people criticized Chen Yun for being a scoundrel, making Cheng Xilei wait for so many years in vain.

Some people even gave Cheng Xilei terrible advice: "Chen Yun only has a fiancée now, and they're not really married yet. Cheng Xilei, you still have a chance. If all else fails, drug his drink, sleep with him, make it a fait accompli, and then stage a scene to steal him away on his wedding day..."

Cheng Xilei blushed and said irritably, "Go away, you're always coming up with terrible ideas!"

However, she was thinking to herself that she had to see what Chen Yun's fiancée looked like, otherwise she would always feel unconvinced.

...

China Overseas.

Guolong Hotel.

Chen Yun and Liang Chenglong and the others had finished dinner, but they didn't leave; they sat together chatting.

Chen Yun said to Liang Chenglong, Tang Shirong and the others, "I have to go back to Beijing in a couple of days. Xiaoting will also be coming back with us. I'm counting on you guys to keep a close eye on Zhonglong Group during this time."

Liang Chenglong and the others laughed and said, "Mr. Chen, President Long, don't worry, we will manage Zhonglong Group well."

Two days later.

Song Yanran also came to Zhonghai from Yuzhou to meet up with Chen Yun and the others, and they prepared to go to the capital together.

Besides Chen Yun, Shu Tangyin, Shu Xinyuan, Xu Yuehua, Long Pingting, and Song Yanran, others also participated in this trip.

Shu Lingyue, along with her parents, also accompanied Chen Yun to the capital to represent the Shu family and to pay respects to Chen Yun's mother...
