662: Chapter 115: The Main Contradiction is the Key_2 662: Chapter 115: The Main Contradiction is the Key_2 Temir smoked by himself, sitting at a distance watching the two men chat without any intention of interjecting.
Confronted with CEO Cheng’s questions, Eris was a bit bewildered.
He took a moment to think, glanced at Mi’er, and saw her expressionless face watching him, which made Eris anxiously lower his head to reply.
“Chan, I prefer to make friends with you.”
CEO Cheng shook his head, Poor kid, our ship has already been caught in the storm and you still don’t realize it.
Alas.
“How’s Cort doing these days?”
Sitting down and lighting a cigarette for himself, CEO Cheng asked as casually as if he were at home, speaking as though he were asking Eris to report on his work.
“The California Elephant Party’s Grand Committee accepted him, Mr.
Wolf recommended him, and now he is the Deputy Director of the Veterans’ Liaison Department of the Grand Committee of California.”
CEO Cheng had targeted Wolf’s father, Temir was being watched by her brother, and it seemed Gru had fallen out with Cheng Daqi.
Eris saw all this clearly.
But that was as far as his understanding went, which was exactly the most frustrating aspect for Eris.
He didn’t understand why Gru would so blatantly go against Eli of Forbes, nor did he understand why CEO Cheng was attacked, and even less so Wolf’s abundant goodwill towards Cheng Daqi.
He was exposed to a lot of information but lacked an overarching understanding.
He couldn’t see clearly, couldn’t comprehend, so his mental stress was great after taking down Dracula.
And just then, coincidentally, Cheng Daqi was attacked and disappeared.
God knows how he managed to survive these past few days.
From the Governor of California to Gru, to the missing Cheng Daqi, and the elusive Mi’er who flew in and out without a trace, let alone Wolf’s mysterious goodwill, Eris was truly terrified.
For example, what did Wolf seem like in Eris’s eyes?
Initially, Cheng Daqi had pointed a gun at him, then took down his father, and after that, Wolf arranged Cheng Daqi’s people into the California Elephant Party like he was serving his ancestors…
Eris: What the hell are these people up to!
In the past, Eris thought of himself as quite a figure, but recently, he increasingly felt like a Husky that had wandered into a pack of wolves.
The wolves’ eyes shone, their teeth bared, salivating as they watched him, as if they were about to tear him apart and stuff him into their stomachs the next second.
“Hah.”
In response to Eris’s answer, Cheng Daqi just sighed and then fell into contemplation.
The room quieted down for a moment, Mi’er remained silent, and Eris’s forehead began to sweat.
The villa’s servant had originally set down pineapple juice in front of Mi’er, then quietly left.
“Eris, go to the Bahamas for me.
Desel has gotten together with Chen Zihao, and you need to explain this to me.
Any problems with that?”
“None at all!”
Eris obediently took his leave, while Temir had some opinions about Cheng Daqi’s approach.
“You’re always so aggressive, Chan.
Even if his people made a mistake, you don’t have to pressure him so much.”
This sounded reasonable, but CEO Cheng’s thoughts were on a totally different level from Temir’s.
“Wolf’s attitude is still good, Eris is a truly key figure, and a minor one at that.
What I’m considering now is what the cost would be if we cut ties with him.”
The play of retreating to sell is a tricky one, but sometimes Cheng Daqi had few options.
“Surely not, Chan.
Our business involves three layers of insurance.
You kicked Gru to the curb because he’s a risk, and now you’re about to do the same with Eris.
How will you make money then?
Moreover, he’s tied to Wolf, and you were just worrying about the Dracula Family’s affairs not going smoothly.
Driving him away might cause you to lose a card you could have played.”
The black-haired, wealthy woman saw the situation clearly; she disagreed with Cheng Daqi’s thinking.
“So, pressure him a bit in the end.
Wolf is with us now, and Eris can see that.
He doesn’t have the guts to betray us.
If he can give me a satisfactory explanation this time, Mi’er, we can then use him for bigger things.
He has potential; he just lacks the opportunity.”
CEO Cheng wanted to provide Eris with more resources.
This dream-chasing old boy had proven his abilities in many areas, and he had quite a few messes under his belt.
The most convenient part was that, on the surface, Eris was Wolf’s man, and giving Eris more resources could also be seen as the support of Cheng Daqi and Mi’er for Wolf.
After thinking through all this, Temir sighed.
“The problematic ones can indeed be put to good use.
Your way of thinking is always…
unusual?”
CEO Cheng shook his head; he had more than just that one thing on his mind.
“What I’m actually worried about is the trouble Achilles might cause for the Dracula Family.
By securing Eris, at least there won’t be any major problems with that matter, which is why I met him immediately.
A little more pressure, a little test for him; we can’t let our resources go to waste.”
“What resources do we have?”
Temir’s question was a bit sharp, and CEO Cheng responded with a frown.
“Hahaha, quite a few.
I have some other friends and other entrepreneurial projects.
Money is one aspect, status is another.
In the game of California, it’s not just the California Clique under Niu Sen that calls the shots.”
The black-haired, wealthy woman understood that Cheng Daqi had the bigger picture in mind, their bigger picture, but she still had her concerns.
“That man has already fired shots in the Senate, Chan.
Achilles and Niu Sen are teaming up against Gru; shouldn’t we warn him?”
Gru was indeed no good, but Mi’er still wanted to give him a heads-up about what was happening—The black-haired, wealthy woman worried that the fool Gru couldn’t see the situation clearly.
CEO Cheng hadn’t expected the girl to think of this, and he said with a laugh and a cry.
“Let’s not even talk about whether Gru will be in trouble; even if they do join forces, we are not without maneuvers.
At most, we’d need to be more cautious, that’s all.
