Chapter 198: Chapter 170: i Xiang’s Disappearance Without a Farewell_2
Chen Cheng’s fingers quickly slid across the screen, reading every related piece of information.
The news ntioned that Mr. Xingye Dajie had not announced his heir before his death, and his family mbers as well as the senior managent team remained silent on the matter, leading the public to speculate that this would cause a fierce power struggle.
And Hoshino Mika, as the only daughter of Xingye Dajie, while usually low-key, was undoubtedly thrust into the spotlight at this mont.
The two of them exchanged glances, and Wen Shulin spoke up, “This just made things even more complicated.”
Chen Cheng nodded, “Yeah, she must be overwheld right now.”
Wen Shulin: “Make a trip over.”
“To Japan?”
Wen Shulin nodded, looking towards Chen Cheng, “Now’s a critical ti. You’re the only one who should go and take a look.”
Chen Cheng pointed at his nose, “?”
“If I show up now, the Xingye side will think CGG is making a move.” Wen Shulin stated bluntly, “That would be detrintal to our subsequent arrangents.”
She continued, “But you, having been a more flexible contact for i Xiang’s recent visit to China, showing up now would not only express concern and sincerity but also avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and suspicions.”
“After all, Dajie’s sudden death may cause a huge upheaval within Xingye Products. She needs not only financial support but also emotional understanding and practical help at this mont.” Wen Shulin sighed.
Chen Cheng pondered for a mont, “It seems I really have no choice but to go.”
Wen Shulin shook her head, “Take Xia Yubing and Tong Jialu with you.”
Chen Cheng: “Why take the two of them?”
“You’ve never been there, right?”
Chen Cheng shook his head.
“If you go alone, you’re unfamiliar with life there, but the two of them have accompanied there more than a dozen tis.” Wen Shulin said directly, “Plus, you need people who understand Japanese by your side. And ones you can trust.”
“Besides, shouldn’t there be so prestige when Mr. Chen goes out?”
Chen Cheng took a deep breath, “Alright, I’ll listen to you. But I have no idea what situations I might encounter on this trip.”
Wen Shulin patted his shoulder, “Play it by ear, try to forge a partnership with i Xiang if possible, and even if it’s not feasible for now, maintain a good relationship.”
“Shouldn’t we also let Mr. Jin know? After all, that 2 billion is ultimately his.”
“I’ll call Mr. Jin right away; you get in touch with them and have them prepare.”
Both took out their phones and called the respective people they were looking for.
Xiao ier, who had just finished her exams, erged from the examination room with a beaming face.
Without any surprises, after several days of continuous practice, she breezed through the hundred questions with ease.
She quickened her pace and imdiately spotted Chen Cheng on the side of the road.
“Husband! I passed~”
Looking closely, she saw Wen Shulin was also there.
Both were making calls separately, with serious expressions on their faces.
She slowed down and approached Chen Cheng, “What’s the matter?”
Chen Cheng hastily hung up the phone and turned to Xiao ier with a forced smile, “How was it? Eh? No need to say, you must have passed, right?”
Xiao ier nodded, “Just the right amount, exactly 100 points.”
“Wife, you are so incredible!” Chen Cheng praised.
Xiao ier looked at him, “Stop changing the subject. What’s really going on? You and Sister Lin both seem very tense.”
Chen Cheng told her the details, Xiao ier covered her mouth in surprise, “So sudden?”
“I just read the news; it was two days ago,” Chen Cheng said.
Wen Shulin also ended the call and said to Chen Cheng, “Mr. Jin has agreed, he said we’ll handle it as we see fit.”
She looked towards Xiao ier, “Xiao Er, did you pass?”
“I did, Sister Lin.”
“Congratulations!”
“Thank you.” Xiao ier nodded, her expression turning concerned, “Sister Lin, Xiao Cheng just told about i Xiang’s father…”
Wen Shulin: “Yes, so, Mr. Chen has to take a trip over there.”
Xiao ier’s eyes widened as she turned to Chen Cheng, “You’re going to Japan?”
“Yep, the situation with i Xiang is complex, and Mr. Jin’s money has already been transferred. I have to ask if i Xiang still needs the funds.”
Xiao ier frowned, “You going on a trip alone, and it’s overseas…”
She looked at Wen Shulin, “Sister Lin, are you accompanying Xiao Cheng this ti?”
Wen Shulin shook her head, “CGG is very busy during this period; I can’t get away. But don’t worry, I’ve arranged for reliable people to et Mr. Chen over there.”
“Then you should also bring Xiao Hai,” Xiao ier suggested, “to help you with things like driving and carrying luggage over there. Having an extra person around ans extra care, and I’ll be more at ease.”
Chen Cheng: “Okay.”
Xiao ier held Chen Cheng’s hand, “I was thinking that after I finished my exams, we could have so good relaxation. I didn’t expect such an incident.”
“Take care when you’re over there; call every day to check in,” she continued. “If you encounter anything uncertain, discuss it with Sister Lin, don’t be impulsive.”
Chen Cheng smiled, “Don’t worry, I have an idea. Besides, I’m just going to have a look; I’m not actually going to do anything.”
He hugged Xiao ier’s shoulders, “Moreover, I haven’t left yet, have I? You passed the exam today, we should really celebrate.”
Wen Shulin watched the couple, wishing she could spend more ti with Chen Cheng before he left the country.
But the reality of the situation simply didn’t allow it.
“Mr. Chen, I should be going now,” Wen Shulin forced a smile and said, “We’ll keep in touch.”
Chen Cheng nodded, Xiao ier quickly chid in, “Sister Lin, why don’t you join us for a al?”
Wen Shulin opened the car door, “Mr. Chen’s about to leave, and he probably has a lot to say to you. I don’t want to be a third wheel.”
With that, Wen Shulin got into the car and drove away.
Xiao ier pouted her lips, “You’re leaving again. How many days will this trip take?”
