Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mr. Lang was quite pleased and began to tell Chen Mo and Xu Ye about his entrepreneurial journey abroad.

Chen Mo found the conversation dull and tried to leave several times, but Xu Ye kept pressing him down.

Ive enjoyed the conversation with Mr. Xu and Mr. Chen today, and this meal was worth the long wait, Mr. Lang said contentedly, his face greasy as he held up his wine gla.s.s and slightly swayed while standing up.

As for the matter of cooperation he said, burping from the alcohol, Ive had a bit too much to drink today. Lets talk about cooperation another day!

Mr. Lang finished his drink and wobbled towards the exit, leaning on the table.

Xu Ye hurriedly stood up to help him, but Mr. Lang waved him off, shouting loudly, Secretary Chen! Where are you? Where have you gone?

Mr. Langs voice was loud, and the door of the private room was pushed open from the outside.

Secretary Chen helped Mr. Lang, nodded to Xu Ye and Chen MO, and then turned to leave with Mr. Lang.

Xu Ye stood at the door of the private room, watching Mr. Langs retreating figure, and spat lightly: Pah! This old fox, playing tricks with his drinking! Chen MO sat in his chair, sipping his wine, Did you call me here just for this?

Xu Ye sat back down next to Chen MO, took a swig of his drink, and said, Dont be fooled by this old foxs appearance; hes quite skilled in business. If you want to expand your business, youll probably have to deal with him in the future.

I heard he recently returned to the country, so I specially invited him over.

It seems, though, that things wont go smoothly.

Hmm, Chen MO replied indifferently to Xu Yes long speech.

Alright, tell me about your situation! Xu Ye stood up and poured another gla.s.s of wine for Chen Mo.

Did you see Xia Wan today? Have you figured out your little rivals intentions? Xu Ye asked teasingly.

Chen MO downed his drink in one gulp, Havent you already investigated everything clearly? Why ask me about that kids motives?

Besides, I trust Xia Wan.

Xu Yes eyes twitched, and he said, Fine, I know your love is unbreakable and sacred.

But I think that Jiang guy really has ill intentions. I worry he might have some hidden secrets. Youd better be careful.

Chen MO responded with a Hmm, Keep investigating. As for Xia Wan, shes also cautious. There shouldnt be any problems for now.

I heard Xia Wans family took over the shop opposite theirs, Xu Ye said, I hear that shop is not just owned by that clerk but has broader implications. Then let that shop stay clean, Chen MO said casually.

Xu Ye was momentarily stunned, then laughed, You really do think of her in everything.

Shes worth it, Chen MO said, a smile appearing on his face.

Xu Ye, unable to bear it, rolled his eyes and shook his head, Look at you, all smitten.

What about that list I asked you to prepare? What did she say? Xu Ye pressed on.

Those businesses were all in a grey area and had now become ownerless.

If it werent for his preemptive action, breaking both the polices trail and the overt capital grabs, those a.s.sets would probably have been divided up long ago.

But news about these a.s.sets couldnt be hidden forever and would soon attract attention.

Then they might face even more trouble.

No rush, Chen MO said lightly, seemingly unconcerned about potential troubles.

I advise you to plan ahead, to avoid being targeted. Otherwise

I know, Chen MO interrupted Xu Yes advice and stood up to leave, My dad is coming tomorrow. If theres nothing else, dont contact me for now.

Xu Ye frowned and stared at Chen Mos retreating figure, Am I that intolerable? Do I need to avoid your dad?

Chen MO, all these years, my sincerity towards you, how can you treat me like this!

Xu Ye, looking forlorn, only got a response from Chen MO without turning his head, A family dinner, you sure you want to come?

Chen Mos words immediately shut Xu Ye up..
