My Son-in-law Is A War God
Chapter 859 - 860: My Husband is Very Fierce!

Chapter 859: Chapter 860: My Husband is Very Fierce!

"Alright, enough, let’s focus on work instead."

For a fleeting moment, Xiao Yulan felt as if she had glimpsed the Xiao Chen of the past.

But she knew it was just an illusion, the Xiao Chen of now was but a pitiable son-in-law who had joined her family, no longer the hero she had once idolized in her heart.

Indeed, she had been badly beaten by Li Chengde, and more than once she had dreamt of having a brother to protect her.

But today that dream too had shattered.

At this moment, Xiao Yulan’s father, Xiao Gang, called: "You’ve met Xiao Enze’s son?"

"Who told you?"

Xiao Yulan glanced at Li Chengde beside her, feeling somewhat discontent.

"It doesn’t matter who told me. I heard that the kid is going to attend your wedding with Chengde, good, he should come and see that without them, our family is still doing very well.

By the way, I heard he’s become someone else’s son-in-law, that’s truly shameful.

I’ve always said it, that family is no good."

Xiao Gang sounded excited on the phone, as if he had found an outlet for venting, and he spared no effort to mock and deride Xiao Chen’s family.

"Enough, Dad, the downfall of the Xiao family wasn’t their fault, why must you hold onto such resentment, Xiao Chen may have disappointed me, but he is after all my cousin, you can’t do this."

Xiao Yulan frowned.

"Shut up!"

Xiao Gang said angrily: "If it’s not their fault, is it mine then? I’m telling you, on the day of the wedding I’m going to make sure to humiliate that brat properly."

Having said that, Xiao Gang hung up the phone.

Xiao Yulan felt a wave of melancholy.

Her father harbored deep resentment towards Xiao Chen’s family.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Yulan turned to Xiao Chen and said, "Let’s start the negotiation then, we’ve talked about personal matters for too long already."

Before she could continue, Li Chengde laughed and said, "It’s less a negotiation today, more like giving you an opportunity."

"Stop."

Xiao Chen interrupted Li Chengde: "I didn’t come here to negotiate with you today, but to deliver an ultimatum.

First, the March Group has swindled fixed assets worth five hundred billion from Liu Heidan’s name, which must all be handed over, otherwise, get ready for a lawsuit;

Second, the March Group must issue a public apology for the vile crimes you’ve committed in Dragon Country, high-level executives such as Pei Yongjun must go to jail, and sufficient compensation must be provided to the victims’ families;

Third, the March Group must treat Dragon Country consumers the same as it does foreign ones, no double standards are permitted!

Fourth, from now on, the March Group must comply with Dragon Country’s laws in all their dealings, otherwise, leave Dragon Country."

As these words left his mouth, the entire room was stunned.

Even Jiang Meng was somewhat surprised.

Xiao Chen had apparently prepared early on how to confront the March Group.

However, his words seemed too audacious.

After all, this was the March Group, the commercial titan of Zhili Prefecture, who dares tell them to leave Dragon Country?

Perhaps even the officials wouldn’t dare to say so.

Where did her husband get such courage?

On the other side, Li Chengde’s complexion turned grim.

Xiao Yulan was utterly shocked.

Even though she also knew that many of the March Group’s deeds were disgraceful, defrauding five hundred billion in assets was no small matter, and she was completely unaware of it.

Could it be that the company had been keeping it from her all along?

She looked towards Li Chengde.

Li Chengde sneered: "Xiao Chen, you’re Yu Lan’s brother, so I won’t hold it against you, but you can’t spout nonsense either. The March Group obtained Liu Heidan’s assets through lawful and legitimate means, and we have contracts for all of them."

Xiao Chen laughed: "You dare mention those contracts? The provincial office approved your low-cost acquisition of those assets so you could develop the economy of Xiongcheng City and expand the employment scale there.

You also promised to do so at the beginning.

But what did you do afterwards?"

Flipping it at a high price, you became a true middleman.

"The provincial government doesn’t want to tear their face off with you, but I’m not used to coddling these habits of yours."

Li Chengde’s face went through a series of changes.

Indeed, it was because they relied on March Group’s standing in Zhili Prefecture that they deceived the trust of the provincial government and then disregarded the government’s requirements.

But so what if they did?

Even the provincial government dared not break ties with them, what could a mere March Group do?

"Hmph, I didn’t expect you to know this inside story, but what if you do? We did just that, so what?

What can you do to us?

I’m telling you, today we’re here to acquire Xinmeng Group. If you know what’s good for you, just sign the contract obediently. Otherwise, I can’t promise you two will still be alive to go back."

Li Chengde coldly said, since his scheme was uncovered, there was no need to waste words, he should just get straight to the point.

Xiao Chen didn’t pay attention to Li Chengde, but turned to Xiao Yulan and asked, "Yu Lan, do you think so too?"

Xiao Yulan kept her head down, saying nothing.

She wasn’t a kind person and had done many things for the March Group before.

But there were always limits.

After all, the business world is much dirtier than the entertainment industry; an innocent person couldn’t possibly survive in this circle.

But basically, everyone has a bottom line.

However, what March Group did this time was too much, it had crossed Xiao Yulan’s line.

To even deceive the officials?

To even privately swallow the assets meant for economic development and expansion of employment?

This was simply seeking death.

"It seems you are not aware."

Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief, relieved that Xiao Yulan had not been completely corrupted.

He looked at Li Chengde and said, "I won’t bother with idle chatter, those four conditions have been clearly stated, and March Group should follow them one by one.

Otherwise, not only will you be kicked out of Dragon Country, but I also promise you’ll pay a heavy price."

In that instant, the sunshine in Xiao Yulan’s heart seemed to shine again.

It was so dazzling, so splendid.

Xiao Chen, her big brother, was always so brave, so domineering.

That’s a true man.

Lost in a reverie, it was as if she had returned to the past.

Jiang Meng’s eyes sparkled even more as she wrapped her arm around Xiao Chen, basking in the masculinity of her husband.

"Li Chengde, your wedding is in three days, right?

I’ll be there, but that’s also your final deadline. If you don’t follow my instructions, don’t blame me then,"

Xiao Chen said coldly, looking at Li Chengde.

In reality, he didn’t like Li Chengde because he could tell that the guy was just a spoiled rich kid.

What good could come out of Xiao Yulan marrying him?

What Xiao Yulan sought was nothing but status and a change from her past hardships, and all of that, he could give her.

"You really think too highly of yourself, you can’t bear the responsibility for the words you’re saying,"

Li Chengde coldly said.

"Of course he can bear the responsibility, I’m saying it,"

Jiang Meng said, looking at Li Chengde.

"And it’s not about him bearing the responsibility; it’s whether you can handle my husband’s fury. I’ve seen plenty of people as arrogant as you.

But they all vanished into thin air in the face of my husband’s anger.

I advise you, my husband is not the superficially gentle lamb he appears to be. He can be very fierce."
