Soon, Chen Shengwu, Zhou Wenxi, and the others entered.

"Chairman, we have something to report to you!"

As soon as Chen Shengwu entered, he got straight to the point and told them about Chen Yun's invitation to meet with them that evening.

Then, in a tentative tone, he asked, "Chairman, we don't know why Chen Yun wanted to see us old guys. We guess it might be related to Tianjiao Group, so we came to ask you, is it appropriate for us to go to Chen Yun's invitation tonight, or is it better not to go?"

Zhou Wenxi and the others also kept a close eye on Chen Rulong.

Chen Rulong remained calm, revealing no emotion whatsoever. He even kept his eyes fixed on the laptop screen on the table, refusing to look directly at Chen Shengwu and the others.

He said calmly, "I thought you came to see me with something urgent, but it turns out it's just this little thing?"

"Whether you go or not is up to you!"

Chen Shengwu and the others were somewhat stunned by Chen Rulong's ambiguous answer.

I don't quite understand the chairman's true thoughts!

However, Chen Shengwu saw the image on Chen Rulong's laptop screen through the reflection in the window glass.

The chairman was actually looking at the stock price of Tianjiao Group!

Chen Shengwu frowned slightly.

Recently, Tianjiao Group has been going through a turbulent period, with its stock price falling again and again after being targeted by Chen Yun.

Even CEO Xiao Wenwei reduced her shareholding and cashed out a considerable amount of money.

Seeing Chen Rulong looking at the company's stock price, Chen Shengwu thought to himself: Even the chairman, who usually doesn't care about anything, is starting to care about the company's stock price. It seems that Tianjiao Group is really in big trouble. It seems that I also need to make plans for myself.

Thinking this way.

Chen Shengwu then said respectfully, "Chairman, we were afraid that you would be unhappy, so we came to let you know in advance. Since you don't mind, we will keep our appointment to meet with Chen Yun tonight and see what Chen Yun wants to do."

Zhou Wenxi and the others chimed in, "That's right, we're just meeting with Chen Yun to see what tricks he's up to. We have absolutely no intention of betraying Tianjiao Group."

"If there's nothing else, we'll take our leave now and won't disturb your rest any longer, Chairman."

The group stepped back, having agreed to meet Chen Yun that evening to see what tricks he had up his sleeve.

In the study.

Chen Rulong seemed to be deep in thought.

Butler Luo Changgui came in and whispered, "Master, the eldest young master has been making frequent moves against Tianjiao Group lately. Today he also approached Chen Shengwu and his group of old shareholders. It seems that everything is ready except for the final push. He will soon have to confront the Chen family and have the final showdown."

"But Madam, through the Qin family's connections, befriended the future Grand Commander by making political donations."

"Master, in your opinion, who will have the last laugh in this final showdown between the eldest young master and the madam?"

Chen Rulong said, "If Xiao Wenwei really manages to climb up to the level of the future Grand Commander, Chen Yun's life will be in grave danger!"

Luo Changgui's expression changed slightly, and he was about to speak.

But Chen Rulong slowly added, "After dealing with Chen Yun many times before, I don't know why, but I always have a vague feeling that Chen Yun still has some trump cards up his sleeve!"

"So it's hard to say who will win and who will lose!"

Luo Changgui was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself: Young Master, Young Master, you'd better use your trump card quickly, otherwise once Madam gets involved with the future Grand Commander, you will be doomed.

Night falls.

As dusk settles, the city lights begin to twinkle.

Songhe Hotel.

A long-established restaurant in Beijing.

Normally, the seats would be completely full by this time.

But the restaurant was deserted tonight.

The reason is simple.

Chen Yun has booked the entire place tonight.

Luxury cars such as Bentleys, Rolls-Royces, extended Lincolns, and Sequoias appeared at the restaurant entrance.

Chen Shengwu, Zhou Wenxi, Dai Chunshan, and other former shareholders of Tianjiao Group all made appearances.

A group of people, each accompanied by their own bodyguards, swaggered into the restaurant.

As soon as they entered the restaurant, a restaurant manager and two waiters came up to them and said politely, "Greetings, esteemed guests. Miss Long has instructed that as soon as you arrive, she will have me take you upstairs. Please follow me."

A group of long-time shareholders of Tianjiao Group frowned.

Chen Shengwu said with some displeasure, "What does Chen Yun mean by this? He invited us to meet, but he didn't even greet us at the door. Doesn't that show him no respect for us?"

Dai Chunshan chimed in, "That's right, this guy has such a big ego, still acting like the eldest son of the Chen family! I don't think there's anything to talk about with him, why don't we just head back home?"

Chen Shengwu and Dai Chunshan have a good relationship with President Xiao Wenwei.

Dai Chunshan, in particular, can be described as Xiao Wenwei's lackey.

He had privately reported to Xiao Wenwei about Chen Yun's meeting with them.

Xiao Wenwei instructed him to sabotage Chen Yun's appointment with the shareholders, and even if he couldn't sabotage the appointment, he couldn't allow Chen Yun to reach any cooperation agreement with the shareholders.

So this guy was shouting loudly, suggesting that everyone just head home and stop talking to Chen Yun.

Zhou Wenxi said, "Since we're already here, let's meet with Chen Yun first, hear why he wanted to see us, and then make a decision."

Zhou Wenxi's words reflected the thoughts of most people, and naturally received unanimous approval.

A group of people followed the restaurant manager.

We went up to the second floor.

We arrived at the Green Pine Hall.

There was only one large round table in the hall that could seat 20 people.

The table was set with various exquisite appetizers, as well as a variety of high-end alcoholic beverages such as foreign liquor and baijiu.

Long Pingting, along with a group of elite subordinates from Zhonglong Group, had been waiting for quite some time.

Chen Yun was nowhere to be seen!

Long Pingting said with a smile, "President Chen, President Zhou, and President Dai, you've all arrived. Please have a seat."

Zhou Wenxi nodded slightly.

Chen Shengwu asked indifferently, "Where is Chen Yun?"

Long Pingting smiled and said, "My young master will be here soon. Please have some tea and wait a moment."

Chen Shengwu was displeased: "That brat Chen Yun didn't come out to greet us, but sent you, a mere girl, to greet us. What kind of attitude is that?"

Taking advantage of the situation, Dai Chunshan slammed his fist on the table and cursed, "Make that brat Chen Yun get out here and see us right now, or we're leaving immediately! What the hell is he?!"

Long Pingting looked angry.

Just then, crisp footsteps sounded outside.

Immediately afterward, a tall, handsome man entered with a burly subordinate.

It was Chen Yun and Lai Fu.

Because of his military background, Chen Yun was used to arriving on time, never being early or late.

He entered with a smile and said, "Hello everyone, it's been a long time. Hope you're all well."

Zhou Wenxi and the others knew that Chen Yun had acquired a considerable number of shares in Tianjiao Group during this period, so they dared not underestimate him and stood up to greet him.

Only Chen Shengwu and Dai Chunshan remained seated, showing no intention of getting up.

Chen Shengwu said coldly, "Chen Yun, you have quite the airs! You actually made a group of us uncles wait for a junior like you."

Before Chen Yun could speak...

Dai Chunshan also sarcastically remarked, "This guy still thinks he's the eldest son of the Chen family, trying to put on airs in front of us. Doesn't he realize he's been kicked out of the Chen family long ago? Even when his mother was alive, she had to be polite to us. What is he anyway?"

Long Pingting had long been dissatisfied with Dai Chunshan, and upon hearing his words, she was about to explode on the spot.

But Chen Yun's face had already darkened, and he said coldly, "Laifu, give this man two slaps across the face!"

Lai Fu replied in a deep voice, "Yes!"

He then moved swiftly, like a tiger pouncing, and in a flash he was in front of Dai Chunshan, raising his hand and slapping Dai Chunshan hard across the face.

A loud cracking sound.

The beating caused Dai Chunshan to spit out a mouthful of blood.

They knocked Dai Chunshan and his chair over!

Chen Shengwu, Zhou Wenxi, and the others were shocked to see this!

Chen Yun said indifferently, "I invited everyone here today to discuss cooperation."

"It doesn't matter whether we can reach an agreement on cooperation or not; after all, even if we don't cooperate, we can still maintain good relations."

"But everyone must have a good attitude, at least basic manners."

"If anyone speaks rudely to me, or even brings up my mother, I will consider it a provocation!"

He glanced at Dai Chunshan, who had been knocked to the ground along with his chair, and said coldly, "This is the consequence of provocation!"
