Just as Huo Jinning and Fu Qinian were enjoying their sweet time together, the Huo family was also putting their plans into action.
Taking advantage of Qian Chengyi's incident, Huo Nanchu secretly joined forces with Qian Mubai to prepare an offensive against Qian Chengfeng.
Although Qian Mubai lacks a holistic perspective, he can steadily move forward according to plan as long as someone gives him advice.
Moreover, Qian Mubai is ruthless.
While Qian Chengfeng was already under immense pressure, he bribed his driver to cause a serious car accident.
Although the accident was not fatal, it left Qian Chengfeng seriously injured and he had to stay in bed for a period of time.
At this moment, Qian's father stepped forward and said that because his son was injured, he would temporarily hand over the work he was in to Qian Mubai.
This decision, while seemingly reasonable, was actually a choice made by Mr. Qian to protect his own interests.
After all, Qian's father had always been somewhat wary of the power in Qian Chengfeng's hands, and this was the perfect opportunity that had been presented to him.
It was also to test Qian Mubai's abilities. If possible, what he most wanted to see was a check and balance between the power held by the two of them.
Therefore, Qian Mubai naturally took over Qian Chengfeng's work and quickly took action to weaken Qian Chengfeng's power.
He ruthlessly dismissed Qian Chengfeng's confidants and capable assistants, replacing them with people he trusted.
These new employees are not only loyal to Qian Mubai, but more importantly, they will not sympathize with or support Qian Chengfeng.
As a result, Qian Chengfeng's power was greatly weakened, while Qian Mubai gradually consolidated his position.
Under Qian Mubai's meticulous planning, Qian Chengfeng found himself in a predicament.
He found his influence in the company rapidly declining, and many key decisions were no longer made with his consent. Despite his attempts to resist, he was powerless in the face of Qian Mubai's forceful methods.
For Qian Mubai, this was just the first step toward success.
He knew that he would need more time and strategy to fully take control of the family business.
However, he has already gained a certain advantage. All he needs to do now is wait for the right opportunity to defeat Qian Chengfeng in one fell swoop.
However, Qian Chengfeng did not give up easily.
He knew he couldn't just sit and wait to die; he had to find an opportunity to fight back. During his recovery, he actively thought of countermeasures, hoping to find a way to break through his predicament.
Qian Chengfeng knew that as long as the car accident was investigated thoroughly, it would be a blow to Qian Mubai, but so far there seemed to be no more evidence.
At first, Qian Chengfeng thought Qian Mubai was just an insignificant nobody.
I initially just wanted to have some fun, and I never expected it to turn out like this.
Of course, he wasn't in a hurry; he was taking his time, finding the cat-and-mouse game quite interesting.
Just as Qian Mubai was immersed in joy, a shocking revelation suddenly exploded on the internet: Qian Mubai was actually an illegitimate child.
Even more shockingly, his existence indirectly led to the death of Qian's mother.
This news was like a bombshell, instantly causing a huge uproar.
Following this, Qian Chengfeng's car accident was also attributed to Qian Mubai. Although this was indeed the case, netizens did not need this due to a lack of conclusive evidence.
They just needed an outlet to vent their emotions, and Qian Mubai happened to become the target of everyone's criticism.
The Qian Group is once again in turmoil, with its stock price plummeting and its reputation severely damaged.
However, Huo Nanchu unexpectedly gained many benefits in the midst of this chaos.
However, this situation did not last long.
A few days later, a new hot topic emerged, people's attention quickly shifted, and the previous turmoil gradually subsided.
Of course, Qian Chengfeng's methods went far beyond this.
Soon after, rumors began to circulate again about Qian Mubai's mother having an affair, bringing shame to the entire family.
Furthermore, Qian Mubai was also reported for soliciting prostitution and was eventually arrested by the judicial authorities.
In fact, Qian Mubai was already a womanizer when he was abroad. Although he restrained himself after returning to China, he still did not change his lecherous nature and continued to secretly have fun behind the scenes.
Getting arrested wasn't a big deal; it could be resolved with a little money. But surprisingly, the girl suddenly changed her tune and took him to court, accusing him of rape.
This unexpected turn of events complicated the situation, and he ultimately had to pay a considerable amount of money and was detained for half a month before being released.
The fact that Qian Mubai's mother had an affair was undeniable, and this incident caused both mother and son to completely lose their standing in Qian's father's eyes.
Mr. Qian was a selfish and cold-hearted man, and he did not hesitate to sever ties with them and stop associating with them.
When Qian Mubai walked out of the detention center, he found that he had nothing.
Huo Nanchu felt sorry for him. He originally thought that Qian Mubai was not so incompetent, but he did not expect that he could not hold on for such a short time.
He had hoped to gain some benefits from Qian Chengfeng by secretly helping him, but now it seems that the plan has failed.
However, Huo Nanchu was not discouraged, because the recent series of events involving the Qian family had already had a huge impact on him.
Many partners have switched to other companies, and although everything seems normal on the surface, the company is actually becoming increasingly hollow inside.
The Qian father and son were only interested in vying for power and profit. They were so engrossed in the power struggle that they completely disregarded the company's true situation and future prospects.
When Qian Chengfeng saw the news about Qian Mubai and his mother, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a disdainful smile.
He is not yet able to manage the company affairs effectively, so his father is temporarily managing them on his behalf.
However, Qian's father's attitude towards his son underwent a subtle change.
Compared to the past, he became more lenient and even began to urge Qian Chengfeng to get married as soon as possible, hoping to cultivate the next generation of successors through marriage.
Ideally, this successor should be someone he can easily control.
For Qian Chengfeng, marriage was out of the question, and he would not give his father the opportunity to harm his child.
Qian Mubai and his mother have already been punished, so of course he won't let Qian's father off the hook. The reason his mother died of depression was all their fault, and he is determined to avenge his mother.
On the surface, the Qian family father and son appeared to be in harmony.
