You can tell from Bai Yaowu's expression that he's unhappy.

However, Bai Jingming didn't seem to care about his feelings and added a casual remark.

"The Bai family has kept a low profile for too long."

"When the development of the Bai family focused solely on the real economy, it completely neglected the internet and public opinion business."

"Although we can mobilize some media now, if we want to target Chen Fan, it will only result in a war of words between the two sides."

"As the head of the Bai family, you must have a strategic vision and carefully consider the future of the Bai family from a strategic perspective."

"The Bai family is currently facing unprecedented trouble. If not handled properly, it could very well lead to utter ruin."

"Although the Bai family looks down on Chen Fan, this kid controls the online channels and directly puts the Bai family's dirty secrets online, making them public. This way, even if we have the opportunity to set up the investigation team, the investigation team won't dare to back down."

"Because if we stop, we won't be able to explain it to the public."

"You should understand what I'm saying, right?"

Bai Yaowu remained silent for a long time before finally nodding.

"Uncle's words are truly insightful. I understand now."

"I will try to make peace with Chen Fan next."

Bai Jingming then nodded.

"That's right."

"Let's make peace with Chen Fan first. Even if we have to pay more money or give up some of our company shares, it doesn't matter. As long as this guy doesn't continue to cause trouble for us, we can extricate ourselves from dealing with the investigation team."

"As long as the Bai family can overcome this trouble, even if they lose some of their businesses, we can still develop and rise again in the future."

"As long as the Bai family still has its capital, the Bai family will never fall in the future."

"As long as the Bai family can get through this difficult time and catch their breath, then the future will naturally be the time to deal with Chen Fan."

After saying this, Bai Jingming glanced at Bai Yaowu and sighed.

"I'm getting old. I can't stay up all night anymore."

"I'll go home and rest now."

Bai Yaowu quickly stood up, "I'll see Uncle San off."

Bai Jingming stood up with his crutch and gently patted Bai Yaowu's shoulder.

"Don't let this family fall apart. Otherwise, after we old bones die, we will have no face to face the ancestors of the Bai family."

Bai Yaowu gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, Third Uncle. I will resolve the current trouble as soon as possible."

"That's good."

Bai Jingming, leaning on a cane, walked out of the villa and, with the help of his driver, got into a stretch Lincoln.

After watching Bai Jingming leave, Bai Yaowu stood at the door, looking up at the night sky above.

His expression was serious.

Of all these families, the Bai family has always been a superior and aloof entity.

Given his status, when had he ever been made so pathetic by someone?

He had gone through a lot of trouble to finally get rid of the Bai family and become the head of the Bai family.

And now, they've been embarrassed by a greenhorn.

Now, we are forced to swallow our pride and beg for peace with the other side.

One can imagine the anger and frustration Bai Yaowu felt.

Sitting in the back seat of the car, Bai Jingming had a cigar between his fingers.

"Let's not go home first, let's go to Mingyue Club."

"yes."

The driver took the person all the way to Mingyue Club.

After getting out of the car, Bai Yaowu was led by several staff members to the elevator and headed upstairs to a private room.

He has a VIP room right here that's all his own.

Today, he specifically called over a few of the younger members of the third branch of the family, because there were some things that needed to be prepared in advance.

The Bai family is currently in a state of panic, and no one can predict what will happen next.

Therefore, as the head of the third branch of the Bai family, he had to make some preparations in advance.

After exiting the elevator, I used my cane to walk to the private room at the end of the corridor.

Bai Jingming stopped and turned to speak with the staff of the club.

"You may all leave. I will call you when I need to."

"yes."

After the staff left, Bai Jingming's driver stepped forward and pushed open the door to the private room.

Bai Jingming walked inside, leaning on his cane.

They were stunned on the spot.

The younger generation, not the third branch, were sitting in the private room.

Instead, it was a woman dressed in business attire.

Bai Jingming would never forget that face for the rest of his life.

"You... what are you doing here?"

Bai Jingming was clearly startled, staggering backward a few steps and almost falling.

"Third Grandfather, it's been a long time."

Bai Ruoxue slowly stood up, looking at the old man in front of her with a blank expression.

Hearing the commotion, the driver at the door rushed in and helped Bai Jingming up.

With the driver present, Bai Jingming breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"You...how did you get here? When are you coming back?"

"What about the other younger members of the third branch of the family?"

Bai Jingming asked several questions in a row, clearly indicating that he was starting to lose his composure.

Bai Ruoxue smiled and took two steps forward, arriving in front of the sofa.

"Don't worry. The third branch of the family doesn't know about the gathering tonight. I'm the one who spread the word, so it was me who invited you here."

Bai Jingming was taken aback, somewhat surprised: "You're the one who did this?"

"You actually dare to show your face? Aren't you afraid I'll call people in and arrest you right now?"

Bai Ruoxue smiled faintly.

"You won't."

"Third Grandfather, don't be nervous. I called you over because I wanted to have a good talk with you."

Bai Jingming snorted coldly.

"It seems there's nothing to talk about between us."

"Do you know that all I need to do is make one phone call and tell Bai Yaowu where you are? You're dead tonight."

Bai Ruoxue shrugged.

"Since I dared to come, I am naturally not afraid of death."

"But Third Grandfather, I urge you to think carefully about whether you really want to talk to me?"

Bai Jingming hesitated for a few seconds, then finally let out a cold snort.

I stepped into the room and sat down opposite them.

However, the driver was not allowed to leave.

It seems he still has some reservations about Bai Ruoxue.

However, after sitting down, Bai Jingming immediately crossed his legs and adopted the posture of an elder.

"Tell me. You took all this risk to come back, you didn't just want to see me, did you?"

Bai Ruoxue picked up the teapot in front of her and poured a cup of tea for the other person.

"Of course not. I came back this time because I have important matters to attend to."

"However, before I do anything, I'd like to meet with my third grandfather first. Maybe we can even get along."

Bai Jingming scoffed.

"We're on good terms? Girl, you don't think your third grandpa is getting senile, do you?"

Bai Ruoxue picked up a cup of tea and placed it in front of the other person.

"Third Grandfather, I won't beat around the bush, let's open the door and see each other."

"I've come back this time to take back what belongs to me."

Bai Jingming's heart skipped a beat.

What do you want to do?

Bai Ruoxue: "Naturally, I'll take back the position of head of the Bai family. It should have belonged to me in the first place."

Bai Jingming stared at Bai Ruoxue for a couple of seconds, then suddenly sneered.

"Girl, are you talking nonsense because you've had too much to drink?"

"There are hardly any people left in the room. You don't actually think that you two sisters can take back the power, do you?"

“Of course, it’s impossible for just the two of us sisters to rely on each other. That’s why I came to talk to my third grandfather.”

Bai Ruoxue looked up at the other person and spoke expressionlessly.

“From today onwards, the third branch of the family will fully support me and help me reclaim the position of head of the family.”

“I can promise you that I will not retaliate against the third branch of the family in the future. My only target for revenge is the second branch of the Bai family.”
