Chapter 540: Brewing Storm

But what... what exactly is going on?

Why is it like this?

Those people, that storm, what exactly is going on?

Could it be...

One misfortune after another befalls the Li Family...

Chen Jianguo’s vigorous retaliation against their business group...

......

In his mind, various matters gradually connected, one by one, forming an increasingly clearer line, within which an increasingly undesirable outcome began to emerge before him...

No... it can’t be...

Chen Jianguo couldn’t possibly have that kind of power!

He absolutely couldn’t have caused such a huge disturbance...

Gao Wencheng’s figure trembled continuously as his mind stubbornly shook its head, unwilling and afraid to admit that such a significant event had been orchestrated by Chen Jianguo...

But all the facts laid out before him, each and every clue, he couldn’t shake off.

He knew, this time, the Gao family had made an unfathomably wrong choice, a choice that had plunged the Gao family into an abyss of darkness!

Perhaps... perhaps it’s irrecoverable!

.........

Chen Jianguo actually managed to make Glass City’s Ma Family take action!

At the Han Family ancestral home, the current head, Elder Han Han Yuqi, looked at the latest information in his hands, his expression becoming exceedingly solemn, his heart filled with unparalleled shock.

Although it was an era of information technology, and Han Yuqi knew some basic computer operations and occasionally surfed the internet, he still preferred reading paper documents. Almost all the reports and information he needed to read were printed out and handed to him in paper form as soon as possible.

It seems, this time, he really made the right move!

After a long while, Elder Han recovered from his immense shock, deeply exhaled, and a trace of relief appeared in his eyes.

Although the Han family might not fear a newly established family like the Ma family, due to its special position, they were not easily provoked, and if provoked, it would definitely bring trouble.

If it wasn’t for his granddaughter’s reminder, he might have unwittingly stood on the opposite side of the Ma family! But now, everything was different; he took the initiative to extend an olive branch to Chen Jianguo, drawing Chen into his circle of friends.

This time, he really had to thank that girl.

A slight smile of pride appeared on Elder Han’s face as he stroked his beard and raised his head, saying to the man standing respectfully below, "Pass down the order, from now on, the Han family will fully assist Jianguo Group! Whoever is an enemy of Jianguo Group is an enemy of our Han family! If Jianguo Group needs funds, provide funds; if they need people, give people!"

"This..."

Hearing Elder Han’s words, the men below almost thought they had heard wrong and it took a moment before a look of disbelief appeared on their faces and they looked up at Elder Han.

"What are you standing there for, don’t just stand there, go!"

Elder Han frowned in displeasure.

He naturally knew what shocked them, but there were certain things he was too lazy to explain seriously.

"Yes!"

Hearing the slightly discontented tone in Elder Han’s voice, the man below hurriedly snapped out of his shock and quickly withdrew, knowing that very soon, the entire Han family would be thoroughly stirred by this order!

............

Zhao Family villa.

The current Head of the Zhao Family, Zhao Dongfang, stared intently at the paper before him for a long time without speaking. After a while, he put down the paper, gently stretched out his hand, and slowly tore the paper into bits, a trace of regret flashing in his eyes.

In the past few days, he made a wrong judgment, chose wrongly, and missed an opportunity.

However, for him, it was just a minor decision and meant little.

What surprised and bothered him was something else.

"Old Fox Han, how could he respond so quickly? Did he sense something beforehand?"

He murmured to himself, his gaze revealing a trace of contemplation.

.........

"Haha... The Li Family really fell into a big mess this time!"

In the Zeng family villa, Zeng Tieshan, the Zeng family head, put down his phone, issuing a loud, satisfied laugh that reverberated across every corner of the villa.

His face radiated happiness and satisfaction.

Recently, the Li Family had been furious, continuously seeking trouble with the Zeng family in secret. He went to meet Old Fox Li Wenchao, whose arrogant demeanor infuriated him, demanding many conditions from the Zeng family. Finally, after Zeng revealed some of their strengths, they settled their differences with a handshake.

Although they resolved their differences, Zeng Tieshan still felt stifled, thinking why should the Li Family be able to press down on the Zeng Family whenever they felt like it? When upset, the Li family could just vent on them?

But he had no choice; the Zeng family was indeed weaker than the Li Family in terms of background, and some forces behind the Zeng family also valued peace, so he had to swallow his anger.

But he never expected that Chen Jianguo and Jianguo Group, once deemed incapable of withstanding a single blow from the Li Family, not only staunchly defended against the Li Family’s attacks but also stunningly dealt the Li Family a severe blow!

How could he not be thrilled?

"Old Fox Li, Old Fox Li, I want to see how you can remain lofty now; Zeng Family replacing the Li Family, this time, you have nothing to say!"

After a while, Zeng Tieshan finally ceased laughing, murmuring to himself, yet the pride and joy, the excitement in his eyes and brows, were indescribable.

He couldn’t help but feel overjoyed and exhilarated; Chen Jianguo’s strike brought the greatest benefit to the Zeng Family. With the Li Family’s strength greatly diminished, the Zeng Family’s power correspondingly rose, making the long-awaited goal of overtaking the Li Family no longer just a dream!
