Chapter 539: 475 blind man

The mansion’s doors opened.

"Thank you."

Jiang Chen even politely thanked the bodyguard who helped open the door.

Bai Haoran didn’t wait in the car, but paced around it, glancing at his watch from time to time. When he saw Jiang Chen come out safe and sound, he let out a slight sigh of relief.

Jiang Chen approached.

"Mr. Jiang..."

"We’ll talk in the car."

Bai Haoran looked at the heavily guarded mansion, nodded, and pulled the car door open.

The two of them got into the car, one after the other.

The car started.

"Mr. Jiang, that old man didn’t give you a hard time, did he?"

Jiang Chen laughed it off, "Why would he give me a hard time? The man is a bona fide businessman."

A bona fide businessman?

Bai Haoran could not agree with that statement.

In his opinion, the unresolved shooting case at Prince Park Stadium was very likely the work of Takagi Gentarou and his nephew, who controlled the K.E Group.

Even to be more precise.

Not a single capitalist could claim they were squeaky clean.

Underneath the mountains of gold and silver, who knows how many corpses and how much bloodshed have been buried.

"Mr. Jiang, what’s the old man’s next move?"

Bai Haoran asked tentatively.

Jiang Chen fell silent for a moment, "He has loosened up, agreed to let me take over the K.E Group."

What?

Bai Haoran’s eyes widened in disbelief, "Really?"

Jiang Chen smiled and nodded.

"This..."

Bai Haoran couldn’t fathom it and blurted out, "But the K.E Group is the life’s work of the Takagi family. How could he give it up so easily?"

"That’s why I say he is a smart man,"

Jiang Chen said softly, "With the current situation of K.E, it’s beyond his ability to handle. Letting go now means he can cut his losses in time. But if he doesn’t, he’d have to watch his own creation fall to the ground. When your own child is sick, and you can’t cure them, but someone else can. If it were you, how would you choose?"

Bai Haoran fell silent, seemingly hesitant as well.

Indeed, this was not an easy choice.

He frowned slightly, struggling, "I don’t know. Maybe I’d rather destroy K.E."

Jiang Chen laughed.

"That’s why they say the older, the wiser. Most people, in a moment of impulse, might truly prefer death to surrender. But as a Dongying man who managed to establish such a big company in France, he must have some tactics."

Bai Haoran gave a wry smile, speaking from feeling, "Indeed, he can tolerate."

The K.E Group has gradually deteriorated from its glory days to its current state, to the point where even the head of the family committed suicide by hanging. It could be said that Jiang Chen was the root cause of all this.

Yet, Takagi Jiro ended up willingly ceding the company to his enemy in the end.

It just goes to show.

Compared to those big shots who call the shots internationally, I still need to elevate my own way of thinking.

It wasn’t just Bai Haoran who was taken by surprise; Pei Yunxi felt the same way upon learning that Takagi Jiro had thrown in the towel.

"How did you convince him?"

Jiang Chen leaned against the window sill, shrugged his shoulders and said calmly, "I simply stated facts and reason."

Pei Yunxi looked skeptical.

"Even if Takagi Gentarou’s death has nothing to do with you, all these tragedies were caused by you, isn’t he bound to hate you?"

"Don’t spout nonsense, what do you mean all caused by me? I was merely conducting business operations legally and reasonably, I refuse to carry unfounded accusations. And don’t forget, I almost died under the barrel of a gun myself."

Pei Yunxi was once again reminded of the harrowing experience at Prince Park Stadium.

If luck had been a bit worse, perhaps her name and this man’s would have been linked forever.

"Then why didn’t he choose the Fujihara Family? Hasn’t the Fujihara Family always wanted to acquire K.E? And they’re both from Dongying."

Jiang Chen smiled slightly.

"Don’t you think, compared to me, the grudge between the Fujihara Family and the Takagi Family runs deeper? I was simply robbing openly, while the Fujihara Family pretended to be righteous, acted as if they were helping on the surface but were actually stabbing in the back secretly. If you were in his shoes, who would you hate more?"

"How can you say such words with such righteousness?"

Jiang Chen’s expression remained unchanged, "Isn’t what I said the truth?"

Pei Yunxi’s eyes flickered, "Did you tell Takagi Jiro that the Fujihara family approached you for a partnership?"

Jiang Chen shrugged, indifferent, "Why should I have any obligation to keep it a secret?"

Pei Yunxi was left without a comeback.

The Fujihara Family was cunning and shrewd.

But this guy was not far behind.

"I think you shouldn’t be too happy too soon."

Pei Yunxi spoke demoralizingly, "Takagi Gentarou acted this way likely with bad intentions. If the Fujihara Family finds out that you’ve stolen their fruits of victory, they probably won’t let it go easily."

Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows, a bit surprised.

That she could see this point so clearly was unexpected to him.

He looked at a certain aspect of Pei Yunxi’s figure, leaning against the headboard, his face revealing realization, "Indeed, not too big."

Pei Yunxi immediately grabbed a pillow and threw it at him.

Jiang Chen caught it, and with an unconcerned smile said, "You’re right, Takagi Jiro’s eagerness indeed has ulterior motives. He wants to take revenge on me and the Fujihara Family. To breed estrangement and turn us into enemies. But the Fujihara Family and I, we were never friends to begin with."

Jiang Chen had never underestimated Takagi Jiro’s intelligence.

Being away from home, having carved out such a large business empire, and having remained unscathed under the fierce gaze of the Fujihara Family, was testament enough to his capabilities.

A person like him, probably even his hair was calculated.

The moment he entered the door today and mentioned the Fujihara Family, Takagi Jiro likely guessed his intentions.

But he didn’t mind the other party guessing at all.

Because he had never intended to play any tricks, this was an outright overt plot.

Takagi Jiro knew he wanted the K.E. Group.

He was also aware of Takagi Jiro’s malicious intentions.

Both parties understood each other’s unspoken intentions and struck a deal immediately.

Jiang Chen put down the pillow, "Just like you said earlier, collaborating with a power like the Fujihara Family is tantamount to bargaining with a tiger for its skin. In their eyes, K.E. has long been in their bag; how could they possibly share the meat from their own plate with someone else? Even if they’re polite for the time being, they will definitely find a way to make one spit it out later. So why should I sit and wait for death? Why not strike first and gain the upper hand?"

"You’re well-matched opponents indeed."

Pei Yunxi said calmly.

Jiang Chen smiled brightly, "Thanks for the compliment."

He walked over and gently stuffed the pillow back under Pei Yunxi.

"I’ll go ask the doctor about your recovery. If it’s suitable, let’s get you discharged in the next couple of days. The hospital isn’t a nice place, staying too long can affect a person’s fortunes."

Pei Yunxi remained silent.

Jiang Chen stood up and walked out.

"Creak."

The door opened and then closed again.

Pei Yunxi glanced at the door, confirming the guy had left before she couldn’t help but lower her head to look at the prominent bulge that not even the loose hospital gown could hide, clenching her teeth tightly.

"Blind man."
