"This is the last one, it's finally over."
Ning Xi glanced back at the gate of the Zhao Group and let out a long breath.
After several days of efficient and intensive work, I have finally managed to bring most of my targets to my side.
Although there are many opportunists among them, as long as our side maintains the advantage, they will not dare to make any moves.
Once in the car, Ningxi leaned back in the seat, closed her eyes, and let the other two people accompanying her report the final results.
"Of the ten great families in the capital, the Zhao family and the Li family have explicitly formed an alliance with us."
"The Liu family, one of the top ten local powerful families, has explicitly allied with us."
"There are more than 60 influential groups in the central market, and 19 of them have already clearly pledged their allegiance to us."
"These are the forces that have clearly sided with us."
"Okay, thank you all for your hard work."
After saying that, Ningxi herself felt extremely tired.
Dealing with these shrewd people is no easy task.
Using both soft and hard tactics, combining kindness and severity, and manipulating the distribution of benefits to intimidate others.
Even someone as talented as Ningxi felt her heart was about to break, having to maintain her best condition at all times, constantly calculating benefits, and also guarding against the other party's treachery and schemes.
For example, the Zhao family she just visited, she had to face Zhao Zhi, an elder of the Zhao family.
This person, who was sent by the Zhao family head to the central market to take charge of the overall situation, is naturally no ordinary person.
The talks lasted for three hours. Faced with the other party's scheming and various conditions, Ning Xi even ceded some of her interests before she could barely appease the Zhao family and get Zhao Zhi to agree to stand on her side.
The ten great families are all formidable forces, and it's hard to imagine that the eldest young master will ascend to the position of family head in such an environment surrounded by enemies and crises.
The cost and suffering involved are unimaginable to ordinary people.
The mental fatigue far outweighed the physical fatigue, and Ningxi just wanted to get a good night's sleep.
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"
The phone rang unexpectedly, and even Ningxi, with her composed nature, couldn't help but frown.
"Hello."
Ningxi's good manners calmed her down, and when she saw the unfamiliar number, she still chose to answer it politely.
"Hello, Mrs. Ning."
It was a very cheerful male voice, full of confidence, but it also seemed to carry a hint of teasing.
"Hello, may I ask who you are?"
"Don't worry about who I am. I'm calling to tell you that your company's fund transfers in Jiangling are too unusual. We've sensed something dangerous, so you'd better prepare as soon as possible."
Who are you? What are you saying?
"Beep beep beep!"
As the busy signal sounded, Ningxi frowned and spoke to a woman in the front row.
"Find out who made that call right now!"
"I need all the information about this person!"
The woman brought out a computer, connected a network card, and immediately began operating it.
A few minutes later, he stared blankly at Ningxi.
"Sister, this card cannot be locked. The other party must have used some means, such as a space card or signal jamming technology."
Ningxi frowned even more deeply at this moment. At such a critical juncture, receiving such a strange phone call made Ningxi feel a sudden sense of panic for some reason.
Logically, one shouldn't respond to such a call, but Ningxi's intuition told her that the other party might be telling the truth!
Who could it be? Could it be an employee of the company? Or is it an attack from an adversary?
"Turn around immediately! Go back to Jiangling!"
"Sis, didn't you say you were going to go back to the hotel to rest for the night before going back?"
"Stop talking nonsense and get back!"
"I hope that stupid woman Tang Xiwei doesn't do anything stupid!"
The thought of her apprentice made Ningxi even more panicked. Had this woman really done something too outrageous?
"good!"
The vehicle made a sharp U-turn at a designated spot, heading towards Jiang Ling.
However, from their current location, it would take them a full 5 hours to get back to Jiangling!
...
Wanluo Group, reception room.
Yelena and Chen Daoyun were sitting there, watching Chen Luo finish making the call.
"Chen Luo, are you tipping them off, letting Ning Xi know about our plan sooner? Aren't you just making them more prepared?"
"Yeah, Chen Luo, I don't quite understand this. Even if you want them to fight amongst themselves, the benefits are far outweighed by the pitfalls we've created!"
Chen Luo did not answer, but turned to look at Bai Shiya, who was making tea for everyone.
"Shiya, you should understand what I mean, right?"
Bai Shiya walked over with several teacups and placed them on the table.
"Chairman Ye, President Chen, it's normal that you don't understand what our boss means, because you don't know Tang Xiwei as a woman."
"Once this woman is driven to the brink, she can unleash a ruthlessness and potential far beyond what is usually possible."
"I was tricked by her back then, otherwise I wouldn't be working as our boss's secretary now."
She felt a burning hatred every time she recalled being kicked off a cliff by Tang Xiwei.
That was a truly fatal kick; I almost fell to my death.
However, I also gained some understanding of how ruthless this woman was; she was a woman who was selfish to the core.
Upon hearing this, Yelena and Chen Daoyun exchanged a glance.
"You mean you want to put Tang Xiwei in danger so that you can use her to get rid of Ning Xi, Wen Shao's most trusted confidante?"
"Well, you're only half right."
At this point, a murderous glint flashed in Chen Luo's eyes.
"My ultimate goal is to turn this bitch into a ticking time bomb planted next to Wen Shao."
"As long as we detonate it, it will explode. It would be best if it could kill Wen Shao directly, or at least cripple him."
Upon hearing this, Yelena looked at Wen Wan, who remained silent to the side.
"Your man is so cruel to a girl, aren't you going to do anything about it?"
She smiled gently and sweetly.
“I dare not speak up. He’s the one in charge of this family.”
Yelena and Chen Daoyun rolled their eyes in unison. Good grief, you're never going to stop showing off your love, are you?
As a new member of the alliance and an older single woman, Chen Daoyun was not used to such a public display of affection and immediately changed the subject.
"By the way, Chen Luo, the people you asked me to prepare are in place. You can start your plan now."
Chen Luo nodded and looked at Bai Shiya.
"Shiya, have Zhou Mei come up here. I need to ask her how the software development is going."
