On November 12, 2004, on the same day, the heads of 37 companies in Guangzhou City simultaneously received invitations from the Fu Group.

Huashi Business Association

Vice President Wang Jin was glued to his office for nearly three hours by phone, receiving calls from dozens of company leaders. Without exception, they were all companies that had recently imposed a business blockade on the Fu Group.

"The Fu Group is shameless enough to offer themselves up for humiliation." Wang Jin said sarcastically, throwing his phone onto the sofa.

The secretary, standing to the side, chimed in, "I think they've come to beg for mercy." They're completely blocked off; if they don't beg for mercy, they're doomed.

"Let's go to the hospital." Wang Jin said with a gloomy face, the pain from the wound on his forehead still lingering.

Given the chairman's unpredictable temperament, things would be even worse if he didn't give a report.

"yes."

Wang Jin took a few steps toward the door, then remembered he hadn't taken his phone, so he quickly turned back to get it. Just then, the phone rang again.

His thick eyebrows furrowed in frustration. Which idiot called this time?

He pressed the answer button, and asked in an unfriendly tone, "Who is it?"

"Wang Jin, I am Cao Ming from Yuan's Security." The man's deep voice was tinged with coldness.

Yuan's security?

Wang Jin was taken aback, and the next second, a dark glint flashed in his eyes. "President Cao, what brings you here?"

"At one o'clock tomorrow morning, bring your thirty-seven dogs to the Gray Angel Chamber of Commerce. Latecomers will not be waited for, and you will bear the consequences." The man's voice was calm, but behind the calmness was a chilling aura.

With a loud slam, Wang Jin threw his phone onto the sofa again, growling angrily, "Damn it, whoever dares to threaten me now! I'm not going, let's see what you can do about it!! Let's go! To the hospital!"

After yelling, Wang Jin abandoned his phone and strode out, his black heels slamming heavily on the floor with a thud. His secretary, following behind, didn't dare to breathe, grabbed her phone, and quickly caught up.

City Hospital.

Qin Mu stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a gloomy face, looking at the bustling crowd outside for a long time.

For three days, the suffocating feeling in his neck was like a maggot clinging to his skin, impossible to dispel. Every time he closed his eyes, he would be transported back to that day, giving him nightmares.

Yuan's Security! A security company that has been established for less than two years has already gained considerable influence in the Beiyu industry, and its reputation is spreading rapidly throughout Qiannan Province. All the businesses that cooperate with it are well-known names in Qiannan. At this rate, Yuan's Security will soon become the dominant force in the entire Qiannan region.

On the table beside the hospital bed, there was a stack of snow-white documents, all belonging to Yuan's security.

Regarding the two senior executives of Yuan's Security, apart from Cao Ming, there is almost no information about Yuan Zhou. Even the shareholder registration information of the industrial and commercial department does not include his information, not to mention his photo.

Yuan Zhou! Those mysterious and unpredictable methods must be the backing behind the rapid expansion of the Yuan family's security forces!

Yuan Zhou, Yuan Zhou, he remembered it very clearly. That night, Yuan Zhou turned on the light, but why was Yuan Zhou's appearance so blurry? He couldn't even remember his outline, and his height wasn't very clear either.

Is this the sorcerer's method?

Recalling the humiliation and fear of that night, hatred almost overwhelmed Qin Mu's reason.

Completely powerless, the fear of impending death was especially clear, so clear that even with a heart full of rage, he dared not take any retaliatory action.

He discovered the bald patch, about the size of a thumb, on the top of his head, along with the hair roots, when he woke up in the hospital the next day.

Clearly, Yuan Zhou was warning him that no matter where he hid, he could find him by the hair.

This was the fundamental reason why he dared not make any move: he had no ability to counter the sorcerer's unpredictable methods. He was absolutely certain that if he acted rashly, he might really make headlines again, this time for suicide.

A knock on the ward door interrupted Qin Mu's reverie.

The bodyguard pushed the door open and came in. "President, Vice President Wang is here. He says he has something to say to you personally."

Qin Mu said coldly, "Let him in."

"President." Wang Jin stood at the door, not daring to go forward.

"explain!"

"The Fu Group sent out 37 invitations at the same time today, inviting the heads of the companies that had blocked them to the Grey Angel Business Club to discuss matters. In addition, Cao Ming, the general manager of Yuan's Security, asked me to take them with me."

Upon hearing the words "Yuan's Security," Qin Mu's breath hitched. He turned around angrily and shouted, "Yuan's Security wants to get involved in the Fu family's mess?!"

The surging anger made Wang Jin shudder, and he almost turned and ran away.

"It should be. Cao Ming's attitude is very assertive. I don't know where he got the guts. This isn't Beiyu."

Where did they get the courage?

Qin Mu's face turned pale. With a master like Yuan Zhou in charge, what wouldn't Yuan's security dare to do?!

Mingtian Real Estate is one thing, but now they're even meddling in the affairs of the Fu Group. They're completely taking advantage of Qin Mu, knowing he can't do anything about Yuan's Security, right?!

Qin Mu, who had always had a smooth life since birth and had been pampered to this day, had never suffered such humiliation. His chest heaved violently with anger, and after taking several deep breaths, he finally lost control. He turned around, kicked over the sofa behind him, rushed to the bedside table, swept everything off the table, and kicked the table like a madman. The room was filled with frantic and loud noises.

The bodyguard peeked out from the doorway, and once he was sure Qin Mu was alright, he shrank back and stopped paying attention.

Wang Jin, standing at the center of the storm, wanted to rush out but dared not move his feet, because he knew that if he dared to leave before Qin Mu told him to get lost, he would die a terrible death.

As a result, when Qin Mu was venting his anger, Wang Jin could only lean against the door and try to minimize his presence.

"Damn it!! You bastard!!!! Yuan Zhou! Yuan Zhou! I, Qin Mu, will kill you sooner or later, kill you!!! Aa ...

hotel.

"Has the private room been booked?" Cao Ming called Zhai Xin.

"It's settled, Mr. Cao."

"Okay." Cao Ming hung up the phone and looked at Yuan Zhuan sitting on the sofa. "The discs containing the evidence materials have been delivered. I'll go pick them up later. Are you going to Gray Angel's place?"

“Let’s go together.” Yuan Zhuan said without hesitation.

Cao Ming laughed, "I thought you wouldn't contact me."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhuan looked at Cao Ming in confusion, "Why?"

"I let Xu Xiang go. You Xu will work as a data clerk in the administration department."

“Brother Ming, you know I’m not really interested in starting a business. Yuan’s Security and Yuan’s Supermarket can’t function without you. Their future development also depends on your control. I don’t have time to manage them, so don’t take what I said the other day to heart. Mingtian Real Estate is your starting point, and Yuan’s Security is your foundation. Go all out and do it.”

Seeing Yuan Zhuan's unchanged attitude, Cao Ming's eyes welled up with tears. "I thought you were going to break up with me."

Yuan Zhuan stared in astonishment at Cao Ming's reddened eyes, his feelings a mix of emotions. He got up and sat down next to Cao Ming as usual.

The close proximity caused the tears that had been welling up in Cao Ming's eyes to burst forth.

Yuan Zhuan: ...

She pulled out a tissue, both amused and exasperated, and wiped the tears of the incredibly aggrieved man. "Brother Ming, if I remember correctly, you're almost thirty. Aren't you afraid I'll laugh at you every day from now on? Then keep crying."

Cao Ming's tears flowed freely, and Yuan Zhuan wiped them away, but the more he wiped, the more tears flowed.

"Brother Ming..." Why are there more and more of them?

Alright...

Men need to be coaxed too.

He took out a string of black Bodhi beads from his pocket, pulled Cao Ming's left hand, and put it on. "It's a talisman, made of sandalwood. I had Yuan Sun set up an array inside. In case of an emergency, I will know, and even if you are thousands of miles away, I can still get there in time to save you."

Cao Ming's eyes were red as he looked down at the sandalwood bracelet on his wrist. The grievances he had been holding back dissipated a little, and he muttered, "Will you still scare me like that in the future?"

Yuan Zhuan, speechless, took out another tissue and continued wiping the person's face. "Are you three years old this year?"

If those businessmen from Beiyu saw Cao Ming like this, they would be shocked, and he would have no intimidation power at all when discussing business in the future.

"Heh, that's not funny at all. You think you can scare me? I'm telling you, if you do this again, I'm quitting, I'm telling you!"

"No, Brother Ming, I can't live without you." Now it was Yuan Zhuan's turn to be nervous.

Seeing Yuan Zhuan's anxious expression, Cao Ming finally burst out laughing, and the gloom that had been weighing on his heart for the past few days dissipated.

"Here, wear this for fun." Men, no matter how old, always need to be coaxed.

Cao Ming felt a chill in his palm as a men's mechanical watch came into view, its dazzling emerald seemingly blinding him.

"A Gino mechanical watch." There are only three in the world. "Where did it come from?"

"I stole it," Yuan Zhuan said innocently.

Cao Ming: ...

Boss, that's ruthless.

Needless to say, it was obtained from the pirates last time.

"Okay, since you apologized, I won't resign." Cao Ming, like a child, complained as he put on his watch.

Yuan Zhuan: ...

“There’s something wrong with Xu Xiang.” Yuan Zhuan thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth. Otherwise, even if the matter was dropped today, it would still make Cao Ming feel uneasy.

"What?"

"He is Xu Yixiang, the favorite grandson of the CEO of Fuhai Group."

Cao Ming jumped up from the sofa, dumbfounded. "What?!"
