After Chen Si's death, the Silin Group experienced a major upheaval. Some senior executives tried to take advantage of the situation to sell off the group's assets. Fortunately, Chen Zhe appeared and accepted Chen Si's invitation before his death to become the president of the Silin Group.
However, this also made many people dissatisfied. They believed that no one could change the current situation of Silin Group, and that selling off assets was the only correct path. They sold off their shares in Silin Group one after another, wanting to cut their losses and leave the market as much as possible. Chen Zhe did not stop them from doing these things. Instead, he offered a price to accept them all. Those people were a little confused when they saw Chen Zhe do this.
Everyone was baffled by Chen Zhe's actions.
On the other side of Donghai City, at the headquarters of Shengli Group, Shen Xingang's office welcomed a special guest.
Shen Xingang treated him with utmost respect, completely unlike his previous arrogant demeanor.
"Young Master, it seems that the Silin Group is already yours."
Guan Yingjie took a sip of tea and smiled.
"That's natural. They still have a lot of land. It's a waste to leave these things in their hands. Once Chen Si dies, they will definitely collapse. In a few days, their shares will become worthless. Then I can take them over. Chen Si can't get the loan, but I can. That's the difference."
"Haha, you're right, you're right, young master. I also thank you for speaking well of me to Director Mu. You've really helped us a lot."
Guan Yingjie waved his hand; "These are all minor matters. I only need to make a phone call. Besides, your old man used to have some connections with my father."
"Yes, yes, my father often mentions your father, and his words are full of praise for him. If it weren't for your father's promotion back then, my father wouldn't have been able to get so many projects."
"It would be best if you could remember this. I'm here in Donghai this time because I might need your help with something."
“Young Master, you say that no matter what it is, I, Shen Xingang, the Shen family, and the Shengli Group will obey your orders.”
Shen Xingang gives the impression of being a serious and aloof person, but this depends on the situation. When facing the powerful official, he naturally bowed his head, indicating his submission.
"Hehe, your attitude is good. It's not a waste of my efforts. What I ask of you is very simple: force Hu Ling out."
"What???"
Shen Xingang was extremely shocked.
"Young Master, isn't Hu Ling dead? Are you going to dig her up from her grave?"
"Heh, she can only fool mindless people like you. If she were dead, would Linglong Club still be running so well? Nobody would believe that!"
After arriving in Donghai, Guan Yingjie became even more certain that Hu Ling was not dead, so he was now considering how to force Hu Ling out.
“This…Young Master, Hu Ling was clearly blown up in public. Everyone saw it. It can’t be faked.”
"What do you mean it can't be faked? How do you know the person who got bombed was her?"
"I……"
Shen Xingang hesitated for a moment, struggling with whether or not to reveal that he had sent assassins to kill Hu Ling.
Guan Yingjie was incredibly intelligent; he immediately realized that Shen Xingang was hiding something from him.
What are you trying to say?
"nothing……"
Guan Yingjie squinted at him; "President Shen, I don't like being lied to. I hope you will be honest with me."
These words startled Shen Xingang. Compared to the officials in the capital, their Shen family was truly insignificant.
"I'm sorry, young master, I'll tell you everything."
Shen Xingang recounted how he had sent assassins. Upon hearing this, Guan Yingjie's expression changed drastically. He stood up abruptly and slapped Shen Xingang across the face without saying a word.
"Damn it! Who the hell told you to do that?"
Shen Xingang, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, dared not refute.
"I'm sorry, young master, we had a really bad fight back then, and I had no other choice."
"Son of a bitch!!!"
Guan Yingjie picked up a chair and slammed it down on Shen Xingang. Each slam was harder than the last, showing no mercy. Shen Xingang didn't dare to dodge. He knew that this young master in front of him had great power, and that he could decide his life or death with a single word.
Five minutes later, Guan Yingjie, whose body had not fully recovered, still felt tired. He sat down, panting, and took out a few pills from his pocket.
Shen Xingang was still kneeling on the ground. He was in a very sorry state, with a large gash on his forehead from which blood was flowing continuously.
Guan Yingjie looked at Shen Xingang as if he were a dead man.
Do you know why I hit you?
"Young Master Guan can hit me without any reason."
Shen Xingang's words showed utter submission, without a trace of resistance.
Guan Yingjie sneered. He wasn't surprised that Shen Xingang didn't dare to resist. He was very sure that even if he asked Shen Xingang to send his wife over, he wouldn't refuse.
Do you know who Hu Ling is to me?
"I don't know."
Shen Xingang really didn't know this, after all, such a big thing happened when Guan Yingjie and Hu Ling got married, and the higher-ups had kept it tightly under wraps, not a single word was revealed.
“Hu Ling is my wife. You sent an assassin to kill her. It’s obvious that you’re going against me.”
Shen Xingang felt a chill run through his body, and he couldn't help but tremble.
"What? Young Master, I really didn't know. If I had known, even if you gave me ten lives, I wouldn't have dared to do this."
Upon hearing that Hu Ling was Guan Yingjie's wife, Shen Xingang was truly terrified.
Shen Xingang kept begging for mercy and kept kneeling on the ground kowtowing.
He kowtowed for an unknown amount of time, his entire face stained red with blood, before Guan Yingjie finally spoke.
"Where is that assassin? I need to see him, I need to get to the bottom of this."
“This…Young Master, he doesn’t meet with people.”
"Heh, what a big shot! Not going to meet him? What if I insist on seeing him?"
"Then... I'll have someone contact them."
Shen Xingang called his strategist in. The strategist was shocked to see Shen Xingang covered in blood and was trembling. Despite his pain, Shen Xingang urged him to contact the assassin.
He immediately called Lin Yi.
But as soon as he dialed, the number was disconnected, clearly indicating that Lin Yi no longer used that phone number.
With a mournful face, he recounted what had happened.
Shen Xingang felt a little desperate when he heard that he couldn't contact the assassin, and looked at Guan Yingjie with some unease.
With a cold expression, Guan Yingjie picked up his phone and casually asked a question.
"It's from the Heavenly Ranking, right?"
The two nodded.
Guan Yingjie had already made the call. After saying a few words, about five minutes later, his phone rang.
The person who called was Lin Yi.
Just now, Guan Yingjie called the person in charge of the Tianbang website. The person in charge of the website can contact any assassin.
"You were looking for me?"
Lin Yi's calm voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I heard you killed my wife? I'd like to ask you something."
Guan Yingjie's voice was extremely cold. He had a life-or-death feud with Hu Ling, but that didn't mean that just anyone could kill her. If anyone was to kill her, it would be him.
"I've killed many people, I don't know which one you're referring to?"
"Hu Ling, do you still remember her?"
The other side paused for a moment.
"It was me who did it, that's right."
Lin Yi admitted it.
Upon hearing the other party admit it, Guan Yingjie's chest heaved with anger.
How did you kill her?
Lin Yi recounted the situation again.
Upon hearing this, Guan Yingjie suddenly felt lost and uncertain.
"So she's really dead?"
"I don't think she could have survived under those circumstances."
These are Lin Yi's words.
Guan Yingjie gritted his teeth; "How dare you! You killed her without my permission!"
Lin Yi sensed Guan Yingjie's anger. He knew that the other party must have considerable influence to be able to contact him through the website administrator, but he wasn't afraid.
"I'm an assassin. I'd kill anyone, even the Emperor himself, if the money's right."
"Hahaha!!!"
Guan Yingjie laughed at his arrogant tone; "Nonsense, do you really have that much ability?"
"You can try it if you don't believe me."
Lin Yi wasn't intimidated at all.
"Heh, fine, then come and kill me!"
Guan Yingjie's words startled Shen Xingang and the strategist beside him.
You have to understand that Guan Yingjie's life is extremely precious. If his family finds out that it was the assassins they contacted who killed Guan Yingjie, would the Shen family still have the right to exist in this world?
"Young Master! Absolutely not!!!"
Shen Xingang quickly grabbed the phone and angrily said into it, "What you said earlier doesn't count!!"
Guan Yingjie looked at him coldly.
Do you think I'd be afraid of him?
Shen Xingang was truly caught in a dilemma. This young master in front of him was unpredictable, and he really didn't know how to serve him.
“Young Master, I don’t think so. I just feel there’s no need to take the risk.”
"You're talking nonsense! He killed my wife. I'm going to call him over and kill him!"
"Young Master, please calm down. Don't gamble with your life. I'm terrified by what you're doing."
"Don't be afraid of your mother! Give me your phone!"
"I won't give it to you!!"
Shen Xingang gripped his phone tightly in his hand, as if it were his life.
"I order you to bring it to me!"
Guan Yingjie was in a state of madness. He was an extremely extreme person. Although he wanted to avenge Hu Ling, he also wanted to avenge Hu Ling if someone else killed her.
Guan Yingjie stood up and tried to snatch the phone, but Shen Xingang quickly tossed it to the strategist.
The strategist was startled when he received the phone. He didn't dare to take it and threw it back to Shen Xingang. They tossed it back and forth like this for several rounds. Guan Yingjie, who was already feeling unwell, collapsed to the ground from exhaustion.
When Guan Yingjie collapsed, the two panicked.
I quickly called an ambulance.
...
At the hospital.
Guan Yingjie lay on the hospital bed, his eyes vacant, as if he had lost something.
At that moment, the door to the ward opened, and Mu Wanzhi walked in holding a bouquet of flowers.
“Your dad asked me to come and check on you. I thought you were about to die, but it seems you're alright now.”
Upon hearing Mu Wanzhi's words, Guan Yingjie turned around and sneered, "Sister Mu, you really are kind-hearted."
Mu Wanzhi sat to the side.
"I've come to tell you something about the Silin Group."
"What's wrong?"
"All of Silin Group's shares have been acquired by Chen Zhe of Linglong Club, so your plan is probably going to fall through."
"What???"
Guan Yingjie sat up abruptly.
When did this happen?
"Just when you arrived at the hospital."
"Damn it, how dare he?"
Guan Yingjie pulled back the covers and prepared to get out of bed. Mu Wanzhi saw this and said, "I think you should give up. What would you do with a company that's about to go bankrupt?"
"This is none of your business!"
Guan Yingjie removed the IV drip from his hand, then got dressed and went out.
