Chen Yun reluctantly accepted the task and left the King's Mansion.
"Mr. Chen, where do we go now?"
Lai Fu asked as he drove.
Chen Yun said to Chen Yun, "Go to the Qin family!"
Lai Fu replied, "Yes!"
Not long after.
Arrived at the Qin family's residence.
Old Master Qin was tending to the flowers and plants in the garden when he saw the servants bringing Chen Yun and Lai Fu in. His old face broke into a smile: "Chen Yun, you're here. Have you had lunch yet? If not, I'll have the kitchen heat up the food."
Chen Yun shook his head: "I don't have time to eat."
Old Qin was slightly startled upon hearing this, then his expression became more serious, and he lowered his voice: "What happened? You went to see the superior, what did the superior say to you?"
Chen Yun smiled wryly and said, "They didn't say anything, they just assigned me a task."
Old Qin was stunned: "What mission?"
Chen Yun then explained the task assigned to him by his superiors: to eliminate the Crown Prince's Society.
Then he said, "Not only does the higher-ups want me to take down this Crown Prince Society, but they also want me to thoroughly deal with those arrogant and domineering powerful families behind it who have been using their power to amass wealth."
Old Qin listened thoughtfully, and slowly said, "The one who took over did it on purpose!"
Chen Yun: "Hmm?"
Old Qin said, "Do you remember? I told you last night that you were the Grand Commander recommended by several of us old men. We had concerns about taking office because we felt that the power behind you was too great, and we were afraid that if you became the Grand Commander, no one would be able to check you."
"So your superiors deliberately assigned you this task!"
“If you take down the Crown Prince Society and sweep through the powerful families behind it, you’ll offend half of the elite in the capital.”
"This achieves the purpose of balance!"
"Only in this way can the higher-ups feel at ease appointing you to the position of Grand Commander!"
"Of course, we can also take this opportunity to deal with a group of arrogant and lawless privileged disciples!"
Chen Yun laughed and said, "That's why I said this mission is tricky!"
Old Qin was taken aback upon hearing this. Looking at Chen Yun, whose face was full of smiles but whose eyes held a hint of helplessness, he suddenly realized, "Ha, so you figured it out a long time ago. I thought you came to me to ask for my advice..."
At this point, Old Qin's expression changed again. He suddenly understood something and looked at Chen Yun in surprise: "Since you have seen through the King's considerations, why did you come to me? Could it be that you are worried that some of our Qin family members have joined the Crown Prince's Society?"
Chen Yun nodded.
Old Qin stared at Chen Yun in shock.
Previously, in his mind, Chen Yun was just a war god.
That kind of war god who commands orders like mountains, fights across thousands of miles, and is invincible.
But now, he suddenly realized that Chen Yun had become more mature and composed.
Not only can they see through the essence behind events, but their ability to handle things is also getting stronger.
For example, now that Chen Yun wants to deal with the Crown Prince's Society, he is worried that there are Qin family disciples in the society, so he came to talk about this matter. His real intention is to hope that the Qin family will not get involved with the Crown Prince's Society!
If there is any connection, sever it immediately!
After his initial shock, Old Qin's expression turned serious, and he called out in a deep voice, "Gaoping!"
Guard Gao Ping appeared quickly and said respectfully, "Elder Qin, I'm here!"
Old Master Qin instructed, "Tell Qin Sheng and Qin Hao immediately to investigate whether any members of our Qin family have joined the Crown Prince's Society or have any close connections with it."
"After the investigation is completed, these young men will be immediately ordered to sever all ties with the Crown Prince's Society."
"Furthermore, the Qin family is undergoing internal rectification. All members of the Qin family must be careful in their words and deeds and must not do anything illegal or disorderly. Otherwise, they will not be tolerated by family law, let alone by national law!"
"Note that this matter must be handled discreetly and not publicized."
Gao Ping replied sternly, "Yes!"
After Gao Ping left in a hurry.
Old Master Qin looked at Chen Yun and said, "Chen Yun, don't worry. Our Qin family is very low-key. No one should join an organization like the Crown Prince's Society. Just follow the orders from above and deal with the Crown Prince's Society!"
Chen Yun smiled and said, "Okay!"
Old Qin then said, "Why don't you stay for dinner tonight and have a couple of drinks?"
Chen Yun declined: "No, I just bought a house, Ziqi Donglai No. 1 Courtyard, and I'm busy buying furniture and making wedding preparations!"
Old Qin laughed and said, "Alright, then next time! But remember to invite me to your wedding for drinks."
Chen Yun also laughed and said, "It can't be as simple as just drinking. You are my mentor, so I'll have to ask you to be my witness at the wedding!"
Old Qin beamed, "Good, good, good! I'm getting old, and I'm happy to see you young people getting married and starting your careers, hahaha!"
Chen Yun chatted with Old Master Qin for a few more minutes, then took his leave with Lai Fu and departed from the Qin family.
I just got back to the courtyard house where I'm temporarily staying.
There they saw Shu Tangyin, Shu Lengyue, and their whole family having dinner!
Long Pingting was there too!
When Shu Tangyin saw Chen Yun return, she quickly got up and added a bowl and chopsticks for Chen Yun and Laifu respectively.
Chen Yun sat down and said with a smile, "Xiao Ting is here too!"
Long Pingting smiled and said, "I've been busy integrating Tianjiao Group with various companies lately, so I haven't had time to come over. But something happened today, so I had to come."
Chen Yun asked in surprise, "What is it?"
Long Pingting asked, "Young Master, did you beat up a guy named Cui Lingyun at the Starshine Nightclub last night?"
Shu Tangyin and the others all looked at Chen Yun, they had no idea about this!
Chen Yun smiled and said, "That's right. Last night, I went to Xinghui Nightclub to find Shu Lingyue and happened to run into this playboy named Cui Lingyun, who was harassing Shu Lingyue with a few followers. So I just beat up those bastards."
Shu Tangyin and the others looked at Shu Lingyue.
Shu Lingyue's cheeks flushed slightly, and she felt a little uncomfortable.
After Chen Yun finished speaking, he asked, "What happened? This guy surnamed Cui came to Tianjiao Group to cause me trouble?"
Long Pingting nodded: "Yes, he somehow found out that you are the eldest son of the Chen family and the chairman of Tianjiao Group. He sent people to cause trouble at Tianjiao Group and asked me to pass on a message to you."
Chen Yun sneered upon hearing this: "Passing on a message? What message did he pass on?"
Long Pingting said, "Cui Lingyun said he's still waiting for you at Xinghui Nightclub tonight, hoping you'll go there in person and talk to him about how to resolve this matter. He said if you don't dare to go, you'll bear the consequences!"
If it were in the past...
Chen Yun would never bother with trouble caused by a powerful scion like Cui Lingyun. He would simply give Gao Ping a word and send someone to eliminate Cui Lingyun.
But he recently took on a new assignment.
His superiors ordered him to dismantle the Crown Prince's Society, and he was only allowed to do so in his personal capacity.
So when he heard that Cui Lingyun had set up a trap at the Star Shine Nightclub tonight, inviting him to negotiate, he was surprised.
He couldn't help but sneer, "It's like a pillow being delivered to someone who's just sleepy. I was just about to teach them a lesson, but I didn't expect them to come to me on their own."
"Come to Fulinle!"
Lai Fu and Lin Le hurriedly replied, "Mr. Chen, we are here."
Chen Yun said, "Hurry up and eat, then come with me to beat someone up!"
Lai Fu and Lin Le replied in unison, "Yes, Mr. Chen!"
This time, Chen Yun was ordered to beat someone up!
