Chapter 416: Chapter 416: Absolutely Cannot Let Him Off Lightly_1

"Brother, say that again!" Chen Jiuzheng’s expression was as if he had seen a ghost.

"What’s wrong with you?" Chen Jiutian was startled by his own brother’s reaction.

"The name you just mentioned, say it again!" Chen Jiuzheng urged.

"Bai Xiaosheng?" Chen Jiutian said in astonishment.

"Bai Xiaosheng!" Chen Jiuzheng exclaimed, "Is it ’Bai’ as in black and white, ’Xiao’ as in little ghost, and ’Sheng’ as in promotion? A young man at first glance plain and unremarkable, but with deep and bright eyes, and always wearing that annoying faint smile? Is that the person!"

"That’s him!"

As soon as Chen Jiutian heard this, his own eyes widened in surprise, "You’ve met him?!"

"Met him? This bastard has made my life miserable!" Chen Jiuzheng said through gritted teeth.

If it hadn’t been for Bai Xiaosheng, how would his inappropriate remarks have been overheard by the corporate inspection team!

And to receive a warning!

Being warned by the inspection team, this could be a big deal or a minor issue!

From today onwards, he, Chen Jiuzheng, would inevitably have to lie low for a while and not make waves.

Even in the future, he’d have to be extra cautious and vigilant!

It was all this guy’s fault!

"What exactly happened, tell me quickly!" Chen Jiutian, upon hearing news of Bai Xiaosheng, his eyes gleaming coldly, immediately perked up!

So, this kid hadn’t disappeared but had actually run off to Zhongjing!

This cursed star!

Chen Jiutian couldn’t help but want to burst into curses, especially hearing that his own brother seemed to have suffered at his hands, too.

Chen Jiutian was even more furious!

Bai Xiaosheng, after duping his son and himself, was now aiming to dupe his brother!

It seemed like he was targeting the entire Chen Family!

How can someone bully others like this!

Bai Xiaosheng, I will never let this go!

Chen Jiutian resolved fiercely in his heart.

Pressed urgently by his own brother, Chen Jiuzheng immediately started from the beginning.

Bai Xiaosheng had sabotaged his plan to recruit Ron Team, insulted the Chen Family’s talent Chen Changqing, inexplicably become the general manager of Zhongjing Media, rejected his kind-hearted offer for collaboration, and not only did he lose face, but he was also overheard by the corporate inspection team and warned on the spot!

These incidents, one by one, Chen Jiuzheng recounted, seething with anger.

"Brother, this guy is a goddamn jinx! Nothing but bad luck comes from dealing with him, and always the worst kind!" Chen Jiuzheng summarized harshly.

This conclusion was eerily consistent with his brother’s opinion...

"This Bai Xiaosheng!"

After listening to Chen Jiuzheng’s description, Chen Jiutian calmed down considerably, stroked his chin, and said with a glint in his eyes, "Hearing you say this, the background behind him is not simple at all!"

"I think so too, and it could very well be one of the high-ups from the Greater China Region!" Chen Jiuzheng promptly shared his suspicions with Chen Jiutian.

"It can’t be someone at the level of the general manager of the Greater China Region or above. If it were, his actions would be straightforward; everything would be done in a word. He wouldn’t need to make all this trouble, to act so recklessly!" Chen Jiutian analyzed calmly, "Below the general manager of the Greater China Region, anyone who can influence the appointment and dismissal of a subsidiary’s head must be at least a regional general manager or a senior Affairs Officer. An ordinary Affairs Officer wouldn’t suffice!"

Chen Jiuzheng nodded, indicating his agreement, "However, this is Zhongjing, the territory of your East China regional general manager. Other regional general managers shouldn’t have such a long reach, right?!"

It’s not that the regional general managers don’t have conflicts with each other, rather, from the bigger picture, if Bai Xiaosheng is a pawn tossed over the boundary by one of them, it would be a miscalculation, which might backfire and offer their opponents ammunition—a loss not worth the gain.

It wasn’t exactly a brilliant move...

"A mere pawn crossing the river to check the car!"

Chen Jiutian’s eyes flickered uncertainly, and he said coldly, "You’re underestimating him. Haven’t we suffered enough from our losses? This Bai Xiaosheng is a troublemaker!"

Hearing Chen Jiutian curse Bai Xiaosheng as a troublemaker, Chen Jiuzheng couldn’t help but cough.

Chen Jiutian also realized at once.

He was really furious, but cursing Bai Xiaosheng like that, what did that make them...

"A regional general manager is a possibility, but it’s more likely to be a high-ranking Affairs Officer!"

Chen Jiutian’s eyes were dark and gloomy, and he sneered, "I know that over the years, some people have been eyeing my position with envy, and have even made some small moves. If this time Bai Xiaosheng is their man, then I cannot let this kid off!"

"Could it be someone from the inspection team?" Chen Jiuzheng suddenly suggested but then shook his head, dismissing his own thought, "People from the inspection team wouldn’t be so high-profile, so ostentatious, to the point of having others from the inspection team warn me... Bai Xiaosheng might have caught the eye of the inspection team, and he’s currently under observation!"

"That’s possible!" Chen Jiutian nodded and then furrowed his brow, "If it’s just someone from the high-ranking Affairs Officer, even if I, Chen Jiutian, have to pay a price, I would kill the chicken to warn the monkey. However, once the inspection team gets involved... that gets a bit tricky!"

"Should we let Bai Xiaosheng off?" Chen Jiuzheng asked.

As he said this, he was very reluctant.

"Let him off?" Chen Jiutian glanced at Chen Jiuzheng and snorted coldly, "That’s impossible. Even for Xiaofeng’s sake, I won’t let him off!"

The brothers were similar in temperament, never tolerating slights, and especially after gaining high positions, they were of the type who could take advantage but never bear a loss...

"However, we also can’t act rashly! After all, behind Bai Xiaosheng, there’s a very good chance that it’s a high-ranking Affairs Officer, and what’s more important is the connection with the inspection team!"

Chen Jiutian stood up with a frown and started pacing beside.

His gaze was distant, as if deep in thought.

Chen Jiuzheng quietly watched him, not interrupting.

After a while, Chen Jiutian stopped and a sinister, inscrutable smile appeared on his lips.

"Bai Xiaosheng just became general manager, huh? Well, let’s let him enjoy a couple of good days. Once this period is over..."

Chen Jiutian walked over to Chen Jiuzheng, bent down, and whispered into his ear.

Chen Jiuzheng’s eyes brightened tremendously as he listened, nodding incessantly, with a vicious smile also emerging on his face.

"What do you think?" Chen Jiutian asked.

"Not bad!" Chen Jiuzheng nodded, saying admiringly, "As long as it’s done cleanly, I believe even the inspection team won’t notice!"

Chen Jiutian coldly smiled, his gaze piercing the void like a knife, seeming to probe into Bai Xiaosheng’s very flesh...

"Bai Xiaosheng, to be my enemy, Chen Jiutian, even if you are one of the Affairs Officer’s people, you must die!" Chen Jiutian steeled his heart.

Now, having a plan to deal with Bai Xiaosheng, Chen Jiuzheng felt greatly uplifted.

"Brother, don’t rush off. Have dinner at my place tonight; I have a servant who makes an exceptional fish soup!" Chen Jiuzheng laughed.

Seeing his brother’s enthusiasm, Chen Jiutian was also in good spirits.

After all, Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t run away. Dealing with him could wait and need not be rushed.

"Alright, I won’t leave tonight!" Chen Jiutian laughed, "Let’s the two of us brothers have a proper drink!"

Here, the brothers spoke with gusto.

There, Bai Xiaosheng and Wang Xincheng were deep in their cups, cheerfully linking arms and reveling.
