Chen Fan’s eyebrows raised, "With such a massive estate, could he really force it to death just with a company he set up in secret?"
Su Qingyan said, "The issue involved is very complex, I can’t explain it in detail, but to put it simply, for years my uncle has relied on his position as the next head of the Mu Family, funneling many major projects to his own company. Grandfather, out of trust, never suspected anything. Today he ca to the Mu Family to declare that he would completely sever these projects from the Mu Family. His thods are extrely clever—just by securing the approval of Tianyuan Comrce Chamber, these projects would fully beco his. If he really does that, grandfather wouldn’t be able to stop him, and once the Mu Family loses these projects and our cash flow breaks, bankruptcy won’t be far behind."
Chen Fan said, "Your uncle is really cunning—to be doing this kind of thing even after he’s been confird as the next family head."
Su Qingyan sighed. "Everyone is almost out of their minds with worry now. If my uncle truly shows no rcy, hundreds in the Mu Family will be left out in the cold."
At that mont, a senior mber of the Mu Family shouted angrily, "This is all Su Qingyan’s fault. If it weren’t for her, Mu Guangping wouldn’t have been driven out of the Mu Family, and none of this would have happened!"
The emotions of the Mu Family mbers were already under strain, and now soone was directing their anger at Su Qingyan, imdiately prompting nurous people to join in the accusations.
"Exactly, if it weren’t for that incident, Mu Guangping wouldn’t have targeted the Mu Family like this. Now look what’s happened—the Mu Family is being pushed to the brink, and we’re all going to go down with it!"
"And this Su Qingyan is only the family head’s granddaughter, yet she’s brought so much trouble to the Mu Family. She’s truly a scourge."
...
Su Qingyan didn’t expect everyone to bla her, and her heart was imdiately filled with grievance.
However, Mu Guangping being expelled from the Mu Family was indeed related to her, so she couldn’t say much, only bowing her head in silence.
Hearing the accusations, Chen Fan’s expression turned cold, and he said loudly, "Mu Guangping was expelled from the Mu Family for overstepping his bounds, making decisions on his own, and coveting the position of the family head. Qingyan’s matter was rely a catalyst. How can she be held responsible for this?"
The person who had led the accusations against Su Qingyan pressed on assertively, "So things would never happen without a catalyst. With so much happening to the Mu Family lately, if it’s not her fault, then whose fault is it?"
This person, nad Mu Qingsong, was the son of a deceased brother of Mu Tianxiong, and thus a senior relative of Su Qingyan.
Chen Fan said coldly, "Is it also her fault that Qingyan was being forced into marriage by the Jiang Family? Why don’t you bla the Jiang Family?"
Mu Qingsong didn’t know how to rebut and rely sneered, resorting to labeling tactics, "Stop making excuses for her. With all the issues in our Mu Family, you’re not innocent either. Both of you are disasters!"
Chen Fan felt a surge of anger and couldn’t help but clench his fists.
Su Qingyan quickly tugged at him, "Don’t argue with him, they just need a scapegoat right now. If they want to vent, let them."
Chen Fan said, "But they can’t just throw the bla at you for no reason, I won’t allow others to slander you like this."
Mu Tianxiong watched the scene with a look of helplessness. With the Mu Family mbers panic-stricken and desperate to vent their emotions, if he were to persistently intervene, it would only provoke deeper conflicts.
Mu Qingsong looked at Chen Fan and said, "You two have put us in a situation where hundreds of people in the Mu Family will face hardship, and you won’t even let us speak our minds? What are you planning to do with that clenched fist? Do you want to hit ? If you dare, go ahead and beat to death, that will just prove your guilt even more!"
Su Qingyan clutched Chen Fan’s arm tightly, afraid that he would act rashly in the heat of the mont.
Seeing Su Qingyan so distressed, Chen Fan felt a pang of pity and realized that his behavior would only make her situation more embarrassing.
He also knew that the Mu Family’s accusations against Su Qingyan were just a way to vent their frustrations, and arguing with them pointlessly would be aningless.
The only solution now is to resolve the crisis of the Mu Family, so that Su Qingyan won’t have to bear the burden of being maligned.
He took a deep breath and looked at Mu Qingsong, saying, "Since you’re so convinced that we caused the Mu Family’s current situation, I’ll solve the trouble the Mu Family is facing first, and then I will settle the score with you."
Mu Qingsong curled his lip, "So many top executives of our Mu Family don’t know how to solve this issue, where do you get the confidence to say such things?"
"You indeed are powerful, but business competition is different from fighting; it’s not sothing you can solve just because you say you will."
Many people from the Mu Family expressed their agreent.
Chen Fan sneered, "Since you’re so pessimistic, how about we make a bet? If I can solve this problem, you’ll kneel down and kowtow to and Qingyan, how about that?"
Mu Qingsong scoffed, "Sure, but if you can’t solve it, then Su Qingyan will be expelled from the Mu Family and her na will be inscribed on the Mu Family’s pillar of sha!"
Chen Fan said, "This bet has nothing to do with Qingyan. If I can’t do it, I will kowtow and apologize to all the Mu Family mbers here!"
Mu Qingsong imdiately shouted, "It’s a deal!"
Su Qingyan’s complexion changed, and she quickly said, "What’s the need for this? It’s not easy to solve this matter."
Chen Fan looked at her and smiled, saying, "Don’t worry, since I dare to say it, I surely have a solution. They may want to vent their emotions, true, but that doesn’t an you should bear all the grievances."
Mu Qingsong laughed, "The Mu Family is about to be finished, and before that happens, seeing you—a peerless powerhouse who could even be the master of the elder of the Jiang Family—kneel down to all of us in the Mu Family would indeed be a bitter pleasure."
The rest of the Mu Family clearly didn’t share his sentint, as they all sighed softly.
"Alas, no matter how strong he is, he’s just a brute. How could he solve the troubles of the business world? He’s really too arrogant."
"Chen Fan is ultimately still too young. Mu Guangping’s tactics are extrely clever; you can’t find any fault with them at all. Now, he just needs the consent of Tianyuan Comrce Chamber to completely overthrow the Mu Family; there’s just no way to stop it."
"At this point, we can only leave it to fate, but honestly, without Su Qingyan and Chen Fan, the Mu Family would indeed not have fallen into this situation."
...
Chen Fan ignored their words; he would shut these people up with his actions.
Mu Tianxiong ca over and sighed, "Chen Fan, you’ve acted too impulsively."
Chen Fan smiled and said, "I don’t think so."
Su Qingyan expressed her concern, "Then how should we solve this problem? The actions my uncle took were all legal and regulated, you just can’t fault them."
Chen Fan turned to look at her and said, "Didn’t you say earlier that he needed the consent of Tianyuan Comrce Chamber for those projects to beco his? If we find a way to make Tianyuan Comrce Chamber refuse, won’t he then be at a loss?"
But Mu Tianxiong said with absolute certainty, "Tianyuan Comrce Chamber will never refuse!"
