All eyes were on Wen Shao, eager to know the inside story of this business battle.
There's no way around it; their reputation as the "Twin Jewels of Beijing" is just too great.
Yelena and Wen Wan's talents and abilities would rank them among the top ten even in Beijing.
One is the undisputed future head of the Ye family, and the other is a madwoman who has risen to fame in the capital in recent years.
Such a high-profile business battle between the two naturally attracted the attention of these top second-generation elites.
These people are bound to become the heads or pillars of the ten great families in the future, and Yelena and Wen Wan are naturally among their formidable rivals.
Under everyone's gaze, Wen Shao put down his cup and gave everyone a smile.
"Actually, I don't know much more than you all. After all, as you know, my sister has a rather peculiar personality. As for our relationship, well, hehe."
Hearing this, no one was surprised. There are few good relationships between the legitimate sons and daughters of aristocratic families. There's no way around it; the interests involved are too great, so great that they can disregard blood ties.
Seeing Wen Shao say this, Luo Cheng, the eldest son of the Luo family, who was closer to Wen Shao, noticed that Wen Shao was more familiar with him.
The two were not only the same age, but they were also classmates and even shared a bunk bed. Now they were allies, so he was naturally the most suitable person to step in and smooth things over.
"Brother Shao, just tell us what you know. We'll just listen to it for fun."
"That's right, that's right, just say it, just say it."
Everyone joined in trying to persuade him, but Wen Shao glanced at them and pretended to be helpless.
"Okay, okay, I was just saying. But if my sister asks about it later, you absolutely mustn't say that I told you."
Everyone became interested and listened to the storyteller with the same enthusiasm.
"The information Zhao Rusong just mentioned is correct."
Wen Shao looked at Zhao Rusong, the son of the Zhao family, who was sitting in front of him, and Zhao Rusong immediately realized what was going on.
"Brother Shao, are you saying that it wasn't your sister who defeated Yelena, but this young man named Chen Luo?"
"Yes."
Wen Shao gave an affirmative answer, and everyone present looked at each other in disbelief.
Upon hearing Chen Luo's surname, everyone looked at Chen Qun, the eldest son of the Chen family, one of the ten great families.
"Chen Luo, Chen Luo? Could he be a member of the Chen family? Chen Qun, I've never heard of anyone like him in your family before."
"That's right! Chen Qun, I've never heard of him before. Could he be your old man's son who was lost to the common people?"
"Oh my, I never would have guessed! Your old man always has such a stern face. Was he quite the womanizer when he was young?"
"You lot, get out of here! Your old man is the one who's a womanizer!"
Chen Qun swore and quickly stepped forward to clarify.
"Don't look at me like that, you bunch of idiots. There are so many people with the surname Chen in the whole country, they can't all be my relatives, right? This Chen Luo, let alone you guys, I've never even heard of him."
At this moment, Wen Shao spoke up at the opportune moment.
"That's right. This Chen Luo is not a member of the Chen family, nor even a member of any local family. He is just a college student from an ordinary family. He should be less than 20 years old now."
"Brother Shao, it can't be that your sister is deliberately pulling the strings behind the scenes to boost this pretty boy's reputation, can it?"
Luo Cheng was the first to raise doubts, after all, it was simply unbelievable that someone from an ordinary family could defeat Yelena in a head-on business battle.
“Yeah, Brother Shao, even though this person’s surname is Chen, it’s still unbelievable, isn’t it? If I, Chen Qun, were to face Yelena head-on, I wouldn’t dare say I’d be 100% sure I could win.”
"Chen Qun, stop talking nonsense. If you were to have a 50% chance of winning against Yelena, that would be an extraordinary performance."
"Get the hell out of here, Zhao Rusong! Why are you all coming after me today?"
"I didn't believe it at first either, but as it turns out, anything is possible. Here, take a look at the report my men gave me."
Wen Shao took a document out of his bag and handed it to Luo Cheng. Everyone quickly gathered around and began to read it together.
The document records every step of the entire business battle, the order in which both sides made their moves, including the resources used and data on each project.
After reading the report, the entire hall fell silent again, but everyone's eyes revealed a look of apprehension.
From this report, they can draw the following conclusions.
First of all, this battle was indeed fought by a person named Chen Luo, not orchestrated by Wen Wan behind the scenes; the two have very different styles.
Secondly, throughout the entire business battle, Yelena was constantly being manipulated, while Chen Luo consistently came up with ingenious tricks and maintained the initiative. Most people present wouldn't dare say they could replicate such improvisation.
Finally, although Chen Luo came from an ordinary background, his unique tactics and composure in this business battle were truly remarkable.
Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Wen Shao's eyes.
Not to mention them, even Wen Shao himself was quite wary of Chen Luo, especially after hearing that his father had personally met Chen Luo and seemed quite satisfied with his future son-in-law after the meeting.
This made him feel a sense of danger; he vaguely sensed that Chen Luo would threaten his position and future plans.
The reason he told these people today was to expose Chen Luo to everyone as soon as possible.
Only a small portion of those present were Wen Shao's allies, so Wen Shao didn't expect them to immediately turn against Chen Luo.
However, once Chen Luo is exposed to the public, and these people become wary, if Chen Luo and Wen Wan want to continue their development, these people will inevitably eliminate Chen Luo, this future threat, for their own benefit.
"Even I'm a little unsure about my future brother-in-law. Everyone, be careful in the future. Okay, that's enough gossip. I'm leaving."
Wen Shao added fuel to the fire, saying that anyone who could make Wen Shao wary would inevitably become their greatest threat in the future.
After Wen Shao left, everyone left one after another, as they needed to go back immediately to report on the matter.
Unbeknownst to Wen Wan and Chen Luo, Chen Luo's name had already stirred up an astonishing storm among the top second-generation members of the ten great families.
...
Late at night, somewhere in Hangzhou.
"Ugh, why does my head hurt so much? Did I sleep too long?"
Chen Luo covered his head, the smell of ether still lingering in his mouth, and struggled to open his eyes.
I wanted to rub my eyes and raise my hand, but then I heard the clanging sound of chains.
"Huh? Where am I?"
"Baby, you're awake?"
