312: Chapter 1 Face, principles, morals, and even the law do not matter!

The most helpless person tonight is Eris.

He had thought that bringing Cheng Daqi to his side would increase his bargaining chips with Wolf Dracula.

Unfortunately, imagination and reality differ.

After CEO Cheng boarded the ship, he played dumb at first, to a degree that made Eris doubt his life and made Wolf think he was a complete fool, performing quite convincingly for a while.

After the dumb act, CEO Cheng went straight for confrontation, signalled by two coughs, and his men entered conflict mode within a second.

For a West Coast agent, who had faced many confrontations, he wasn’t so helpless when it came to turning against someone.

But what really broke Eris was the behavior of the huge bear, Riel.

Riel, it’s only been a day, have you forgotten the brotherhood we shared living and eating together?

Unfortunately for Eris, tonight he was just a minor character, and no one cared about his mental state.

Wolf Dracula’s security personnel stepped aside at his command, but not too far away.

“Danze, Riel, sit down, don’t be agitated, Mr.

Wolf and Mr.

Eris are both my friends.”

CEO Cheng’s words steadied Wolf, the Dracula heir stepped back, and CEO Cheng found a way to gracefully de-escalate the situation.

Of course, the conflict wasn’t going to be easily glossed over; CEO Cheng wasn’t some naive boy.

At CEO Cheng’s gesture, Little Black Brother and the big bear Riel both heaved a sigh of relief.

It’s better not to fight and kill if it can be avoided; the followers don’t really want to die in conflict.

“Cheng, there might be some misunderstandings, but you really went too far.

I invited you here, and from start to finish, I treated you as a friend.

Is this how you treat the friendship of the Dracula Family?”

Seeing Cheng Daqi trying to downplay the situation, Wolf was not willing to let it go.

His security was nearby, and from his behavior, he clearly occupied the moral high ground.

For an American elite like him, gaining an advantage in any matter as a daily practice was important, and right now, he certainly had more than just a slight advantage.

CEO Cheng awkwardly shifted, picked up his cup and tactically drank water, unable to easily deflect Wolf’s offense.

Before long, Eris spoke to defuse the tense atmosphere.

“Cheng, you’re taking the joke too far, apologize to Wolf now.”

Smart soul, love from the old boys of the Balkans.

The West Coast agent had some skill; he provided Cheng Daqi with a crucial step down.

“Wolf, I’m very interested in working with you, but you really lack some honesty, and you know what I’m talking about.”

He expressed a willingness to cooperate, but CEO Cheng wasn’t planning to apologize.

CEO Cheng could take a step down, but he wasn’t willing to take a second, strength and control of information gave him confidence.

And if he stepped back again…

Thus, CEO Cheng had no choice but to continue playing the role of an impolite jerk.

Wolf’s gentle expression was gone, he now looked solemn; the Dracula heir certainly understood what Cheng Daqi was referring to.

“Cheng, what does our family’s business have to do with you?

You’re just an irrelevant person!

If you think there’s a problem, let’s just split up, why talk about our Dracula Family being targeted?”

Wolf admitted he was reserved, but he couldn’t possibly admit to the baseless notion that the Dracula family was being targeted.

Moreover, in Wolf’s view, CEO Cheng really wasn’t that important.

You think there’s a problem with me?

OK!

Let’s just split ways then!

Faced with Wolf’s rejection and refusal to cooperate, CEO Cheng simply stood up, gave Eris a smile, and turned to leave.

Sorry, Eris, I truly didn’t expect tonight’s surprise; I’ll make it up to you later!

Wolf was decisive, and so was CEO Cheng!

He could wait for a more suitable opportunity, just like Wolf, he didn’t need to hang onto one tree.

“Wait!

Cheng, wait!”

The one speaking was Eris, the West Coast dream chaser who, despite hating Cheng Daqi to the core, couldn’t just watch opportunity fly from his lips!

Having been on the West Coast for so long, Wolf Dracula’s offer was the best opportunity Eris had encountered.

CEO Cheng seemed to mess things up, but Eris wanted to salvage it!

The person with the least presence tonight stopped Cheng Daqi, and then sincerely said to Wolf.

“Wolf, Cheng is a very, very smart man.

If you want to go further, you must learn to cooperate with all kinds of people.”

Was what Eris said reasonable?

It was reasonable!

Was what Eris said correct?

Very correct!

But Wolf Dracula just laughed mockingly.

I respect you because I have manners, not because you’re really that important!

Eris, you think too highly of…

Thinking about the relationship between Eris and Cheng Daqi, Wolf finally realized something was wrong!

Not right!

Very wrong!

Cheng Daqi wasn’t Eris’s subordinate at all; it seemed Eris never really disclosed Cheng Daqi’s strength and intelligence to him.

This Chan, who suddenly appeared tonight, had even managed to deceive him.

He dared to tell his men to draw guns, dared to play me, dared to turn against me, and received such high praise from Eris…

Wolf’s expression turned from mockery to icy cold.

He thought of a terrifying possibility—if Cheng Daqi really was that powerful, so powerful that Eris couldn’t control or dare to explain his attempt to play him.

Could it be that the Dracula Family was indeed being targeted?

“Hahaha, Cheng, you’re too tense, it was just a bit of a misunderstanding, all trivial, all trivial matters.”
