Chapter 147 An Unsolvable Overt Scheme

The strong taste of blood in his mouth made Chen Jingyang almost vomit!

Chen Qishan's move was undoubtedly intended to completely cut off his source of income, rendering him incapable of independence!

Once he kneels down, he'll never have a chance to stand up again!

From then on, he could only be subservient to his so-called father, just like his mother had been back then!

However, this is clearly another question that doesn't require his answer.

Before he could speak, Chen Qishan quickly made a demand that made him feel so indignant that he could hardly breathe: "From today onwards, you must go home every night and come to me at seven in the morning and eight in the evening to greet me."

He paused, his voice carrying a hint of venting satisfaction: "I'd like to see if you can still uphold the rules of the Chen family."

He raised his eyes and glanced at Chen Jingyang indifferently: "Did you hear me clearly?"

Cold sweat broke out on my scalp, quickly soaking my hair and sticking to my forehead, sticky and icy.

These words were like boulders crashing down, squeezing all the air out of Chen Jingyang's chest, leaving him feeling suffocated and in excruciating pain.

He swallowed the blood in his mouth, forcing his voice to calm down. Even though he had been completely defeated, he didn't want to look like he was in a state of panic: "I heard you clearly."

However, Chen Qishan's next words quickly shattered his little scheme.

Chen Qishan stood up, walked up to him, and looked down at him, his leather shoes almost touching his knees. "Don't even think about slacking off at the company. Tanzhi's profits need to double next year. If you can't do that..."

He chuckled and said, "I'll make sure you never see Zhang Pengfei again!"

Chen Jingyang was utterly shaken!

He looked up as if struck by lightning, his head filled with fear and confusion, staring blankly at Chen Qishan.

What does "never to see again..." mean?!

But Chen Qishan clearly had no intention of explaining to him. He kicked Chen Qishan's leg and said disdainfully, "If you want to kneel, kneel further away. Don't block the way!"

But Chen Jingyang knelt there without moving!

This time it wasn't that he was deliberately disobeying; it was simply that he couldn't understand what Chen Qishan was saying at all!

His mind seemed to be racing, all converging into one sentence: What does "never to see each other again" mean?!

Even after all this, will Chen Qishan still not let Zhang Pengfei off the hook?!

"Dad!" Chen Jingyang slowly stood up, his gaze as cold as iron under the blazing sun: "I'm your son. I have no complaints about how you treat me, but Zhang Pengfei..."

He said, word by word, "If even the slightest thing happens to him, I'll blow up the Chen family!"

Chen Qishan snorted coldly and said contemptuously, "Then you'd better behave and listen to me, otherwise I don't mind trying to see if the Chen family gets bombed first, or if you get into an accident first!"

He waved and pushed Chen Jingyang aside. Chen Qinian quickly opened the door for him, and the two strode out.

"Jingyang!" Lin Zheyan supported the staggering Chen Jingyang, his voice filled with worry: "Are you alright?"

Oh no! He's very bad, extremely bad!

But whether it's good or bad, what difference does it make to him now?

"Lin Zheyan." Chen Jingyang steadied himself by holding onto the door. "You can go now."

To avoid being implicated by him.

Lin Zheyan felt a pang of pain in his heart and angrily retorted, "Am I really that kind of person in your eyes?!"

Chen Jingyang looked up, forcing a smile on his dejected face: "That's why I kicked you out!"

"Bastard!" Lin Zheyan cursed at him, his icy demeanor, cultivated for thirty years, shattering into dust in that day: "What are you trying to prove in front of me for!"

He grabbed Chen Jingyang's shoulder and shook him hard: "Chen Jingyang, don't be discouraged. The old man is already seventy-six years old this year. We can outlast him!"

The light in Chen Jingyang's eyes gradually brightened.

yes!

Chen Qishan was already seventy-six years old, and there was a fifty-two-year age gap between them. Even if Chen Qishan passed away at the age of one hundred, he would only be forty-eight years old at that time!

There's still time!

Seeing that he had come back to life, Lin Zheyan breathed a long sigh of relief, released him, and frowned, saying, "But how are we going to achieve double the profits next year?"

Chen Jingyang glanced at the setting sun and squinted.

He thought for a while before saying, "The probability of success is not high, but it's not entirely impossible."

Lin Zheyan was skeptical: "There are so many reports saying that Tanzhi's technology is no good. Chen Qinian wasn't exaggerating. We're even losing our existing customers. How can you expect to double our profits next year?"

“Because of Zenti,” Chen Jingyang said calmly. “On the way back, I suddenly realized something.”

Lin Zheyan suddenly had a bad feeling: "What do you mean?"

"This cooperation was a trap from the very beginning."

Lin Zheyan was even more confused: "How is that possible? All the procedures were completed right under our noses, how could they have arranged it?"

Chen Jingyang shook his head: "Although I can't find any evidence right now, I'm certain that our algorithm is absolutely fine. The hardware must have been tampered with, otherwise, that kind of problem wouldn't have occurred."

"Then we'll investigate!" Lin Zheyan said angrily, "We'll definitely expose Zenti's conspiracy!"

Chen Jingyang gave a bitter smile: "It's pointless."

He told Lin Zheyan, "Tanzhi has officially accepted Zenti's technical assistance. I am almost certain that the hardware obstacle was cleared the moment the document was signed and took effect."

"So what?" Lin Zheyan retorted angrily, "There will always be traces left. Do you think you can't restore it for him with your skills?"

Chen Jingyang sighed: "When I said it's meaningless, I wasn't referring to the fact that the problem has been fixed, because even if we eventually point out the truth, no one will care."

"What people want is not a judgment of right or wrong, but, as Chen Qinian said, how to quickly resolve all the problems to prevent further losses."

Lin Zheyan understood. It was like someone committing murder with a knife in a busy street. At that moment, everyone's thought would be to stop him from continuing to kill, and almost no one would study the reasons why he did it.

Even if the final way to stop him was by killing him, everyone would still think that he deserved it, even if it was later proven that he had a great injustice and grievances.

Chen Jingyang gave a self-deprecating smile: "If I'm not mistaken, after Zenti's technical support team arrives, they will soon announce that they will be fully responsible for the technical work and ensure a smooth delivery. Given Zenti's status and influence in the industry, customers will come back one after another."

But if they try to prove their innocence at this moment, they will lose everything except a sense of pride!

Even if Tanzhi is not wrong, customers will no longer buy into Tanzhi's products!

This is where Zenti's brilliance lies: at the very beginning of the cooperation, or even before, they laid out an unsolvable trap!

What good is knowing the truth? The truth can only be buried in our hearts, never to be revealed to the public!
