The employee eagerly reported to Ye Chen.
This employee works at the Shanghai branch of Ye Chenxunheng Law Firm. Ye Chen had asked him to help him with something before.
"Coming to cause trouble at the firm?"
Ye Chen frowned. Someone causing trouble in a law firm—was that person out of their mind?!
Who is it?
However, judging from the employee's anxious appearance, it seems that something really has happened, and it's a big one at that!
"Boss, the troublemaker is Zhu Pengyu, a wealthy tycoon from Shanghai."
"Zhu Pengyu brought a large group of bodyguards and started smashing things as soon as he came in. In no time, one-fifth of our firm was destroyed."
"Everyone else in the firm has been detained by Zhu Pengyu. I was released by him specifically to inform you."
The employee answered.
Even if an ordinary person had a lot of guts, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble in a well-established law firm.
But Zhu Pengyu is different. He is a wealthy man in Shanghai with amazing influence and connections.
Let alone the fact that they are just a branch of Xunheng Law Firm in Shanghai, even the top-ranked law firm in Shanghai is nothing compared to Zhu Pengyu.
"What happened?"
Ye Chen then asked why Zhu Pengyu, whom he didn't know, was causing trouble at the firm.
"Boss, it's like this, a few days ago, one of our lawyers was doing his regular work and took on a case..."
The employee explained to Ye Chen.
In short, Xunheng Law Firm took on a rather unusual case.
A rich second-generation heir forcibly humiliated a young girl. The girl's parents heard that the lawyers at Xunheng Law Firm were very responsible, so they went there.
After discussions with the girl's parents, Xunheng Law Firm took on the case.
Logically speaking, this kind of thing is not particularly rare. Their firm had received similar cases before, and everything went relatively smoothly, but this time an unexpected incident occurred.
That rich kid is actually Zhu Pengyu's son!!!
In order to prevent his son from going to jail, Zhu Pengyu spared no effort in using all his connections to try to overturn the case, counter-sue the other party, and send the girl to jail.
Zhu Pengyu had everything arranged perfectly, but then he heard that Xunheng Law Firm had actually accepted the case and was preparing to handle it according to the law.
Knowing the strength of Xunheng Law Firm, Zhu Pengyu immediately became worried.
Zhu Pengyu sent people to threaten Xunheng Law Firm, forcing them to take on the case but not to contribute their efforts; instead, they secretly helped Zhu Pengyu and his associates.
After being threatened, the staff of Xunheng Law Firm decided to ignore the threats.
They cannot abandon justice because of threats from the powerful!
They are lawyers, and their duty is to uphold justice!
Upon learning of this, Zhu Pengyu flew into a rage and led a group of people to vandalize Xunheng Law Firm.
"Boss, Zhu Pengyu wants you to go there immediately to handle this matter, or he'll smash up our entire firm!"
The employee continued.
"Walk."
Ye Chen spoke up, preparing to go and take a look at Xunheng Law Firm.
On the way there, the game sent me a message.
【bite】
[Challenge issued: Support the decision of the lawyers at Xunheng Law Firm, uphold justice, and refuse to bow to the powerful]
[Challenge Reward: 6% ownership of Hilton International Hotels Group]
[Challenge Reward: 117 Experience Points]
[Challenge Reward: 58 Mall Points]
After looking at the challenges, Ye Chen knew what to expect. Even if the game didn't have any challenges, Ye Chen, as the boss, wouldn't just sit idly by.
On the way, Ye Chen also sent a message to Lin Beishuo.
Coincidentally, a few days ago, Lin Beishuo brought a team from Yinglong Security Group to Shanghai.
The mercenary squad that Ye Chen had previously turned back has returned, leaving Ye Chen with no one to use. This would be troublesome if there were any emergencies requiring manpower.
Although Zhu Yeqing had many subordinates, their strength was relatively ordinary, far inferior to that of his own Yinglong Security Group. Therefore, Ye Chen sent a message to Lin Beishuo, asking them to come to Shanghai from Yuecheng.
As luck would have it, it came in handy today.
Half an hour later, they arrived at their destination.
When Ye Chen arrived, Lin Beishuo had already arrived with more than twenty bodyguards.
"boss!!!"
"boss!!!"
"boss!!!"
Upon seeing Ye Chen, Lin Beishuo and the others greeted him respectfully, displaying their well-trained manner.
Without Ye Chen's orders, they did not break in.
"Walk."
Ye Chen led his entourage toward Xunheng Law Firm in a grand procession.
"Wait, only one of you can go in at a time!!!"
Upon seeing this, Zhu Pengyu's two bodyguards, who were guarding outside Xunheng Law Firm, immediately stopped Ye Chen and his group.
Thud, thud!
Without Ye Chen's orders, Lin Beishuo and the others took action directly, knocking them to the ground with just two punches.
Ye Chen strode into Xunheng Law Firm.
Upon seeing Ye Chen lead a group of people in, Zhu Pengyu, who was sitting there with his legs crossed, immediately became serious.
"boss?"
"The boss is here!!"
"The boss is here! We're saved!"
The people at Xunheng Law Firm, who were under Zhu Pengyu's control, became agitated.
Upon hearing these words, Zhu Pengyu also learned Ye Chen's identity.
"Enough with the nonsense. Agree to my demands, and we can discuss everything else. I can compensate you for your losses."
Zhu Pengyu gave orders to Ye Chen.
"As long as you pretend to help the other side, but actually help us..."
Before Zhu Pengyu could finish speaking, a cold voice rang out.
"Give in to your request? Who do you think you are?!"
This Zhu Pengyu dares to order him around, haha.
Hearing Ye Chen say this, Zhu Pengyu's face darkened.
"Kid, I, Zhu Pengyu, have been in Shanghai for decades. I know far too many big shots in the underworld."
Zhu Pengyu said confidently.
“If I just ask, many big shots in Shanghai will help me. Your Xunheng Law Firm can just wait to go bankrupt, and you can just wait to go bankrupt.”
"Are you really that confident that you'll have plenty of people helping you?!"
Ye Chen countered with a question.
"Of course, I, Zhu, don't have many merits, except for having many friends and a wide network of connections!!!"
"When my friends encounter trouble, I, Zhu, will do my best to help them. If I encounter trouble, they will definitely go all out to help me!"
Zhu Pengyu boasted to Ye Chen.
He wanted to scare Ye Chen into bowing down and submitting to him!
