15: Dimensionality reduction attack from Chen

“Chen Corporation?” Everyone’s expressions changed.

“Which Chen Corporation?”

The man with the gold-rimmed glasses said indifferently, “Is there a second one in all of Jiangnan City?”

“Impossible!” Zhao Long blurted out subconsciously.

“The Zhao Corporation is involved in multiple Domains such as medicine, genetic biology, and real estate, with a market value of hundreds of billions.”

“The major shareholder has never shown his face in public. It is said that he is a big shot in political and business circles, and also has connections with the military. He has immense power and is the most powerful person in Jiangnan City!”

“The second shareholder is a doctor of medicine and genetic biology, one of the founders of Chen Corporation, who invested with his technology. He earned a net worth of twenty billion within two years of graduation…”

His words stopped abruptly. Zhao Long looked at the man with glasses in front of him, still in shock.

The more he looked, the more familiar he seemed, as if he was the one on TV…

The man with glasses ignored the scrutinizing gazes of the three, smiling as he handed the exquisite gift box to Su Lei.

When opened, a small booklet lay quietly inside.

Looking at the three large characters “Thousand Layer Wave” on the cover, Su Lei’s breathing hitched, and he suddenly looked up.

“This is… a B-Grade Martial Skill!”

On the way back by bus, he had been browsing the forum section of the Martial Artist Association’s official website on his phone.

He had seen an introduction to the Martial Skill “Thousand Layer Wave” in a post about Moves and Cultivation Techniques.

The learning difficulty was extremely demanding, but once mastered, its power was astonishing.

Innumerable streams of overt and covert Qi layered and intertwined, like a thousand layers of waves, unstoppable.

It was not only classified as a B-Grade Martial Skill, but also a High Grade among B-Grade ones!

“A B-Grade Martial Skill?”

His words instantly attracted the attention of everyone else present.

Zhao Ming was momentarily stunned. He had been somewhat suspicious, but now his concerns were completely dispelled.

He couldn't help but let out a snort of laughter.

“Do you know how much a B-Grade Martial Skill costs?”

“Let me tell you, you can’t buy it even with money!”

For a Martial Artist, Martial Skill scriptures meant power, and power determined everything!

A B-Grade Cultivation Technique scripture was enough to become a Family heirloom passed down through generations, and perhaps one day it would allow the Family to soar!

Advanced Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills on the market had long been monopolized by the big shots.

B-Grade Cultivation Techniques occasionally appeared in the black market, and each time they caused a huge stir, easily being sold for tens of millions.

Even he had never seen one with his own eyes!

Who would use such a valuable item as a greeting gift?

And give it to Su Lei, this good-for-nothing who was overdue on his loan and lived off subsidies?

Zhao Long forced a smile, his teeth baring chilling words: “Su Lei, where did you hire this actor? He plays the part quite well.”

“You used this trick back then to deceive the school’s beauty, didn’t you? Forcing your way into a relationship?”

The two elders immediately trembled with anger, their eyes filled with indescribable disgust as they looked at Su Lei.

“Are you even human?!”

“Despicable and vile, worse than a beast!”

Before Su Lei could speak, the warm smile on the man with glasses’ face instantly vanished.

“Zhao Long? The heir of Tiandi Pharmaceutical Group?”

Zhao Long was startled, then glanced at the other party disdainfully.

“That’s right, I hold 20% of the company’s shares. Once it goes public, my net worth will directly exceed a hundred million!”

“Li Xue凝, it’s not too late to change your mind now. Come live with me from now on, and I guarantee you a lifetime of comfort and prosperity!”

As he spoke, his gaze lingered on Li Xue凝’s graceful figure, moving back and forth.

Finally, it rested on her slightly rising and falling chest, and he swallowed constantly.

Li Xue凝 frowned incessantly, quietly stepping back a few paces.

A murderous intent flashed in Su Lei’s eyes. Clenching his fist, he took a step and walked towards the other party.

“Mr. Su.” The man in the suit suddenly called out to him.

Meeting Su Lei’s unfriendly gaze, the other party gently pushed up the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose and said unhurriedly, “How about I take Your Excellency’s place and teach him a lesson?”

“A lesson?” Zhao Long laughed in extreme anger.

Being spoken to like this in front of the goddess he had long dreamed of, his already impatient mood completely exploded.

“Pretty boy, what are you? If you know what’s good for you, get lost!”

“Otherwise, I’ll have someone break both your legs!”

After speaking, he took out his phone from his pocket, making to dial.

The man with glasses’ eyes suddenly turned cold. He ignored the other party’s shouting, merely looking at Su Lei silently, awaiting a reply.

After a moment of silence, Su Lei nodded slightly and made a gesture to invite him.

After receiving approval, the man in the suit and glasses took out his phone from his pocket, said a few simple words to the other end, and then hung up.

Listening to the conversation, Li Father and Li Mother exchanged glances, unable to resist turning to look at Zhao Long.

Zhao Long let out a disdainful scoff.

“If I heard correctly, you just said you wanted to acquire Tiandi Pharmaceutical Group?”

“Idiot, we’re a Family business, and we haven’t even gone public yet! What are you going to acquire us with?”

The man in the suit said nothing, only offering a faint smile.

Soon, a crisp ringing sound echoed in the room.

Zhao Long frowned slightly and answered the phone in his hand.

Listening to the voice from the other end of the phone, his face instantly changed.

“Wait! What did you say?!”

“Major institutions and investment companies are choosing to withdraw? Our C-round financing is over?!”

“What?! The company is facing a hostile takeover? Shareholders are starting to transfer shares?!”

Zhao Long’s hand holding the phone trembled violently, his tone instantly rising.

“What kind of joke are you playing?! Who dares to lay a hand on our Zhao Family?!”

Before he could say two more words, the urgent ringing of the phone sounded again.

Looking at the caller’s name, he quickly answered.

“Dad! What exactly is going on?! Are Second Uncle and the others crazy?! Why are they collectively transferring shares at this critical moment?!”

A desperate voice came from the phone.

“Someone leaked the news that Chen Corporation is going to target us.”

“All the dirt on our company has been exposed. Your Second Uncle has already surrendered himself.”

“Chen, Chen Corporation…” Zhao Long’s Adam’s apple bobbed, and he swallowed with difficulty.

Before he could say anything more, a piercing siren suddenly sounded from the phone.

“The Security Department is already downstairs at the company…”

“Alas, you’re on your own.”

With a sigh, the call abruptly ended.

Listening to the dial tone, Zhao Long’s legs went weak, and he slumped to the ground, his eyes vacant.

Li Mother beside him was dumbfounded, stammering, unable to utter a complete sentence.

“Little, little Zhao, don’t worry, maybe it’s…” Just as she was about to offer a few words of comfort, she was suddenly glared at fiercely by her husband beside her.

Li Father quickly put on a smile, bowing and nodding, saying, “Your, Your Excellency is… who exactly?”

Zhao Long suddenly startled awake, quickly looking up at the man in the suit in front of him, his eyes full of pleading.

The man in the suit ignored the three, taking out a pure black business card of unknown material from his pocket.

Several lines of gilded characters were hot-stamped on it.

Shareholder, Chief Executive Officer of Chen Corporation.
