154: Submission and the Chen Family

Shu Ya frowned, “Who said I don't have a solution? He's here to help us.”

At this moment, she quickly grabbed Chen Tianming's arm, “Tianming, quickly tell them…”

“Nonsense.”

To Shu Ya’s surprise, before she could formally introduce Chen Tianming, Shu Boyuan, who was on the sofa, directly interrupted her.

A hint of impatience appeared in his eyes, “I think you’re becoming more and more unruly. Are you saying you want to solve my Shu family’s crisis with just this pretty boy?”

He was asked to believe that such a young man could solve the problem.

He would rather believe his daughter was an idiot!

Seeing that her father and brother didn't believe her, Shu Ya was truly anxious, “How could you…”

Before she could finish, Chen Tianming immediately stopped her.

“I'll tell them myself.”

He then immediately ordered someone to enter the door.

“Master!”

A Qi led people in from outside the door.

They hadn't expected Chen Tianming to bring people into their house.

Shu Yong panicked, “Who are you?”

He then pointed at Shu Ya’s nose, “Look at the trouble you’ve caused! If anything happens to our family, I won’t let you off!”

Chen Tianming ignored him and immediately ordered A Qi to take out the things he had prepared.

“This is the acquisition contract.”

A Qi neatly placed the document on the table, “After signing the contract, Shu's Group will officially be acquired for fifty-one percent of its shares by our party, and become a branch of our party.”

In a word, they were going to annex the Shu family.

Upon hearing this, Shu Boyuan trembled with anger.

Shu Yong, however, laughed in extreme anger.

“What a joke, you don’t even know your own weight.”

“You, of all people, want to acquire our Shu family?”

“Who do you think you are?”

At this moment, footsteps were heard again from outside the door.

“In Modu, the Chen family is the boss.”

The voice, upon entering his ears, carried a hint of domineering power that commanded respect without anger.

The person who entered was none other than Zhao Xuexuan.

Chen Tianming was very satisfied with her performance.

As expected of his woman, she had learned a bit of his aura.

Coupled with her absolute strength in corporate management, just standing there was enough to intimidate many people.

The Shu family father and son were indeed startled.

Shu Boyuan was the first to react, “What did you just say? His surname is Chen?”

“What's so great about Chen…”

Shu Yong had just mumbled a sentence when he immediately received a slap from his father.

Shu Yong was still somewhat dazed from the slap.

And Shu Boyuan had an expression of disappointment, “I think you've truly lived in vain!”

“The strongest in Modu is the Chen family!”

“Not only in Modu, but even in the Alliance and West Continent, the Chen family's strength should not be underestimated!”

He had never seen anyone else with the surname Chen dare to be so arrogant.

When facing Chen Tianming again, Shu Boyuan’s voice clearly held a hint of respect, “May I ask for your esteemed name, sir…”

“Chen Tianming.”

It was Chen Shao.

Recalling his terrible attitude towards Chen Tianming just now, Shu Boyuan felt a wave of regret.

Wasn't he just looking for death?

Shu Yong, who was still not very familiar with the business world, rubbed the spot that had just been hit.

His eyes still clearly held a hint of doubt as he looked at Chen Tianming.

And soon, Zhao Xuexuan's words made him completely submit.

“Last year, the Chen family's total income in Modu accounted for two-fifths of the city's total income, and they enjoy abundant resources locally. The reason why the Four Great Families are what they are today is mostly due to the support of Chen Shao.”

Zhao Xuexuan crossed her arms, “Even our Zhao family is no exception.”

If the Shu family father and son had even a slight doubt about Chen Tianming’s strength before, they could be said to be completely submissive now.

“Can you really help us alleviate the current crisis?”

Shu Boyuan's voice trembled, filled with more excitement than anything else.

Rather than being targeted by other forces and gradually heading towards bankruptcy, it was better to rely on a powerful backer and still have a glimmer of hope.

Moreover, joining the Chen family and becoming part of their influence was not a bad thing for them.

After receiving an affirmative reply, Shu Boyuan picked up a ballpoint pen and swiftly signed his name on it.

“From today onwards, the Shu family will exist as a branch of the Chen family!”

“To trouble the Shu family is to oppose the Chen family.”

Zhao Xuexuan presented the contract to Chen Tianming with both hands.

Chen Tianming only glanced at it before telling Zhao Xuexuan to put it away.

Then he sat on the sofa, scrutinizing the Shu family father and son, “Tell me, who exactly is troubling you.”

To help the Shu family resolve their crisis, he first needed to figure out who the enemy was.

Shu Boyuan let out a long sigh.

“These days, many people have been taking advantage of our misfortune, and even the Zhao family is targeting us now.”

“But the biggest impact on us has been from the Fu family.”

After speaking, he recounted the troubles of his company in detail.

The current head of the Fu family, Fu Shao, had already allied with many connections, almost simultaneously attacking the Shu family’s company.

This was why they had lost so miserably.

Shu Boyuan almost slammed the table when he reached an emotional part of his story.

But he quickly turned to look at Chen Tianming, his eyes now showing a hint of flattery.

“However, there’s nothing to fear anymore. With your ability, you will surely be able to handle this matter.”

After leaving the Shu family, Chen Tianming immediately handed over the task of investigating people to Yan Yu.

Then he took Zhao Xuexuan to a hotel.

Towards evening, as a woman's soft sigh echoed in the room, Yan Yu's call finally came back.

“The eldest young master of the Fu family is preparing to marry into the Ye family soon.”

“The Ye family?”

Chen Tianming frowned, “Continue.”

But his movements didn't stop, and a hint of an ambiguous atmosphere still lingered in the room.

“Although Ye Xuan is an illegitimate child looked down upon by the Ye family, she is still the second daughter of the Ye family. If judged by normal status, she would not be worthy of Fu Shao. However, rumor has it that the eldest young master of the Fu family is a disabled person who can only sit in a wheelchair and cannot move at all. A second daughter marrying a disabled person is considered a suitable match, which is why this engagement was facilitated.”

Yan Yu was reporting, and at the same time, Zhao Xuexuan's ambiguous voice from Chen Tianming's side also came through the phone.

This caused a subtle feeling in Yan Yu's heart.

“Understood.”

Chen Tianming immediately hung up the phone.

And in his mind, Ye Xuan’s sharp eyes instantly appeared.

Such a woman was actually going to marry a cripple under her family's arrangement.

Chen Tianming sneered.

Afterward, Chen Tianming gently stroked Zhao Xuexuan's cheek.

“How much do you know about the local Fu family?”

Seeing Chen Tianming ask, Zhao Xuexuan answered truthfully.

This Fu family indeed had some capabilities locally.

However, Zhao Xuexuan was not entirely clear about what the current head looked like.

“Since there’s an engagement, there will inevitably be a ceremony. Help me investigate the Fu family’s financial situation and get an invitation card.”
