My Son-in-law Is A War God -
Chapter 1110 - 1111: Here Comes the Villain Xiao Chen
Chapter 1110: Chapter 1111: Here Comes the Villain Xiao Chen
"Xiao Chen, that abandoned child, the lowly son-in-law who married into the family, has no right to step foot into our Duanmu Family!
We can’t let War God continue to misunderstand."
In the eyes of the Duanmu family, the only reason Xiao Chen had received their protection was because of the Duanmu Noble Clan.
"Father, regardless, War God has helped us this time, and we must thank him.
Moreover, we can slip a note into the gift for War God, clarifying that we have no relationship with Xiao Chen and hope he will not assist Xiao Chen in the future.
The worse we make Xiao Chen sound, the better. Whether it’s true or not doesn’t matter; the key is to write something that will make War God detest him."
Duanmu Lin suggested after some thought.
"That’s a good idea, but what kind of gift should we send?"
Duanmu Chang furrowed his brows. Sending a gift to War God was no small matter.
Too expensive, and it might offend War God.
Too cheap, and it would be embarrassing.
They needed to choose an appropriate gift—something not too conspicuous yet very precious.
"Grandfather, doesn’t War God have a fondness for Yin Que? Then let Yin Que deliver the gift. I think no matter what it is, he should like it.
I heard War God likes antique calligraphy and paintings. Fortunately, our family has a Ming Dynasty official kiln blue and white porcelain piece that is well-preserved and extremely exquisite.
Having Yin Que deliver it will surely please War God."
Duanmu Yun proposed.
"Yes, the most treasured in our family is indeed Yin Que. As long as she delivers the gift, and it’s not too vulgar, War God should like it and remember the favor from our Duanmu Noble Clan."
Duanmu Chang nodded: "Alright, let’s get it done."
Zhou Yin Que was naturally delighted to learn that the gift was for Xiao Chen.
In the entire Duanmu Noble Clan, she alone knew Xiao Chen’s true identity.
Soon enough, Zhou Yin Que arrived in Xiongcheng City, first feigning a visit to Chen Yigeng’s residence, then having Chen Yigeng deliver it to the Dark Moon Club.
Of course, all the spies sent by the Duanmu Family had already been cleaned out.
"Hehe, this is a fine item, and it’s a unique piece. The value of a unique piece often doubles.
Originally, this Ming blue and white porcelain would’ve been worth a hundred million at most, but now it might not even be obtainable for two hundred million.
The Duanmu Family truly deserves its reputation as a dark money aristocracy, indeed very generous."
Xiao Chen laughed.
"Brother, this won’t affect you, right?" Zhou Yin Que was somewhat concerned.
"Not at all. Sooner or later, the entire Duanmu Family will be mine; what’s one gift?"
Xiao Chen laughed, "Besides, the money I use annually for charity and welfare projects exceeds a hundred billion. Who dares to say anything about me?
Let them try donating a hundred billion a year first."
"That’s good then."
Zhou Yin Que felt reassured: "Brother, Duanmu Lin wants me to assume the position of Vice President at the Duanmu Group. Although it’s a nominal post for now, who knows, they might actually hand over the Duanmu Group to me in the future.
Should I accept?"
"Accept it, why wouldn’t you? Some in the Duanmu Family are rotten to the core, but not everyone is bad. We despise those people, not the entire Duanmu Family.
I would actually hope for you to become the Family Head of the Duanmu Family, to truly cleanse it anew."
Xiao Chen smiled: "If there’s anything you need my help with, just say the word, I’ll definitely help."
"Mm, with your words, brother, I’m at ease."
Yin Que nodded.
Although she was intelligent, she had just begun learning, definitely inadequate in all aspects and lacking confidence.
Having someone like Xiao Chen secretly assisting her was the only way she could truly feel confident.
"But Yin Que, what I’m worried about now is you," Xiao Chen said. "Duanmu Lin is recklessly charging down a road of no return and will eventually find his own doom.
I’m afraid that if you’ve developed feelings for him, I, your brother, won’t be able to take action when the time comes."
"That won’t happen."
Yin Que shook her head and said, "I completely gave up on him the time he tried to send me to Africa. Even when Bai Qiaoqiao gave me a severe beating, I still had a glimmer of hope. But now, my heart is truly dead to him.
It’s just that, brother, the person who kills him shouldn’t be you, no matter what, he is your father.
If someone has to take action, it should be someone else."
"I’ll handle this myself. You just focus on studying hard and strive to take over the Duanmu Family group. I’ll secretly support you,
to ensure that your status in the Duanmu Family rises higher and higher."
After chatting for a while, Zhou Yinque reluctantly left.
She was thinking to herself, how would the people from the Duanmu Family react once they found out that this Ming blue and white porcelain ended up in Xiao Chen’s hands—would they cry or laugh?
After returning to the Duanmu Family, Yin Que reported the gift she received from War God.
She indicated that "War God brother was really very satisfied, repeatedly praising the Duanmu Family, and hoping that the Duanmu Family could continue to be a benchmark for Dragon Country."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the Duanmu Family was almost excited to the point of cerebral hemorrhage.
War God had praised them, saying they were a benchmark for Dragon Country.
They hoped they would keep up the good work.
Perhaps the previous matters had been done because of Yin Que, but now, War God had truly communicated with the Duanmu Family.
They were pleasantly surprised.
However, little did the Duanmu Family know that War God was Xiao Chen, and if they found out, they might actually suffer cerebral hemorrhages one by one.
The Ming blue and white porcelain was soon sent by Xiao Chen to the Xiao Corporation’s museum in Capital City.
For these things, Xiao Chen hoped that everyone who appreciated antiques could enjoy them.
He also hoped that there, the cultural treasures of Dragon Country could be best preserved and passed down.
"Honey, I might need to go to Chaoyang City in the next few days. Will you come with me?"
Just as Xiao Chen was pondering over how to deal with the Duanmu Family’s matters, Jiang Meng came in.
"What happened?"
Xiao Chen asked.
If Jiang Meng personally needed to go to Chaoyang City, it was inevitably because there was a problem there.
"There’s a bit of a situation,"
Jiang Meng sighed and said, "Our Xinmeng Entertainment is doing very well, isn’t it? And ever since we acquired Chaoyang Film, our popularity has skyrocketed.
Many companies want to work with us for endorsements and advertisements.
There’s an American company that, because it has the backing of Langpu Group, is quite arrogant.
They owe us a full billion in endorsement fees.
Xinmeng Entertainment has just started to flourish, and a billion is definitely no small amount.
What’s most frustrating is that when our branch in Chaoyang went to collect the payment, they were beaten up, and two people had their legs broken."
Jiang Meng was angered whenever she mentioned this. Can’t everyone just do business amicably?
If you don’t have the money for an endorsement, then don’t come to us. Now that the endorsement is over, they refuse to pay the fee—it’s disgusting.
For such enterprises, all Jiang Meng could do was call the police.
But it seemed to be of little use; although the other party was warned and even had people arrested, they still refused to pay the endorsement fee.
They even threatened them, saying if they dared to call the police again, they would kill someone.
Actually, this wasn’t Jiang Meng’s fault. She was running a legitimate business, and when faced with such ruffians, there were very few options.
There’s an old saying, ’Let the villains grind each other down.’
Dealing with such rascals would require someone like Xiao Chen, a villain himself, to step in.
