After a mont of silence, the middle-aged man slamd his hand on the table. "Investigate! Find out what the hell happened, and then resolve this issue for !"
"Understood!" everyone imdiately responded.
"Alright, get to work!" the middle-aged man gestured with his hand.
Only after hearing these words did the people in the conference room stand up and leave.
Then, the Qi Family mobilized all its resources to investigate the reason for the sudden stock crash. Half of the real estate sector in the Imperial Capital was set into motion.
However, after an entire night, the Qi Family had found absolutely nothing.
anwhile, the instigator was at ho, watching a romance movie and shedding tears.
"Damn, this actress’s performance is so good it moved to tears!"
Vigorously wiping his face, Chen Zheng took a sip of water. He decided to go for a drive to change his mood; the movie was just too emotionally devastating.
The speed of the Lamborghini slowly cald him down. As the cold wind blew past him, he felt like a stoic, stone-cold man, impervious to any romance movie.
But just then, a van at the intersection suddenly ran a red light and barreled straight for him.
SCREECH...
Chen Zheng forcefully wrenched the wheel, managing an elegant drift with the Lamborghini. Although he executed an extre maneuver, the rear of his car was still hit.
However, the van showed no signs of stopping. Instead, it continued to push Chen Zheng’s car toward the greenbelt!
BANG!
The rear of Chen Zheng’s car was completely deford. The engine was undoubtedly a write-off.
"My God, are all van drivers this aggressive now?"
Chen Zheng let out a breath. Despite the severe damage to the rear, his driver’s seat was completely untouched. Then, through the rearview mirror, he saw a hulking brute get out of the van and start walking toward him.
Is soone trying to kill ? Chen Zheng narrowed his eyes. He could sense that the other driver showed no signs of post-collision nerves but instead looked rather disappointed.
Without hesitation, Chen Zheng kicked open his car door and stepped out.
"Not bad driving," the brute said coldly upon seeing Chen Zheng. "The plan was to kill you in the crash, but it looks like I’ll have to get my hands dirty after all."
"Who are you?" Chen Zheng narrowed his eyes at the man.
"You don’t need to know," the brute muttered, exuding a faint, murderous aura.
Chen Zheng was familiar with this feeling—it was an aura honed in the crucible of life-and-death battles.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have triggered a choice mission!]
[Option 1: The assailant is a retired King of Soldiers! Defeat him and thoroughly insult Qi Lei! Reward: The Qi Corporation’s stock will remain at limit down!]
[Option 2: A King of Soldiers?! No way I can beat him! Flee imdiately! Reward: One-tenth of Qi Lei’s personal assets!]
Hearing the sudden system notification, Chen Zheng’s brow furrowed slightly. So, this is Qi Lei’s doing!
With that thought, he let out a cold laugh. Indeed, aside from that bastard, who else would do sothing so audacious? If not for his quick reflexes, he would have died in that car crash.
"Option one!"
Chen Zheng made his choice instantly. If you want to play, I’ll play along. I’d like to see just how much market value the Qi Corporation has left to lose!
With a sneer, Chen Zheng looked at the brute before him and said, "From Qi Lei, are you? Go back and tell him he can’t afford to ss with !"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the brute charged at Chen Zheng. Yet, in the face of the attack, Chen Zheng showed no fear whatsoever.
Ha! Scared stiff, are you? A guy like this has the right to talk tough to Young Master Qi? the burly man sneered internally. His movents never faltered as his fist flew straight for Chen Zheng’s face.
But just then, Chen Zheng suddenly raised his hand and caught the punch. While simultaneously diffusing the force, he twisted the man’s joint.
CRACK!
A crisp sound echoed. The brute’s forceful punch had sohow resulted in his own arm fracturing. Moreover, his wrist was locked in Chen Zheng’s iron grip, making it impossible to pull back.
How is this possible! The burly man’s eyes widened, filled with utter shock.
"Rember my words well, and don’t forget to tell Qi Lei," Chen Zheng said with a smile. "If he wants to play, I’ll play with him."
To the burly man, however, that smile was terrifying. Having stared death in the face before, his senses were incredibly sharp. He wanted to flee imdiately, but no matter how much he struggled, he couldn’t break free from Chen Zheng’s grasp.
The next second, a punch too fast to see clearly landed squarely on his chest.
PFFT!
The burly man spat out a mouthful of blood as he flew backward through the air, soaring more than ten ters before crashing to the ground.
"Damn it..." The brute suppressed another surge of blood, scrambled to his feet, and fled toward a nearby greenbelt.
Chen Zheng didn’t pursue him. Instead, he took out his phone and called Li Yitong.
Li Yitong arrived at the scene shortly after.
"What happened?" she asked, her brows tightly furrowed. The scene was chaotic; the Lamborghini was a complete wreck.
Chen Zheng told her everything.
Li Yitong nodded and turned to her subordinate. "Check the surveillance!"
Soon, an officer ran over. "Captain Li, all the surveillance caras in the area have been destroyed. The only evidence we have is that van!"
Li Yitong narrowed her eyes. The work of a professional?
Just then, another officer ca to report. "Captain Li, the van was pieced together from scrap parts, the license plate is fake, and they even welded a steel plate to the front! The van is almost undamaged, while Mr. Chen’s car is completely totaled!"
Li Yitong licked her lips, a hint of nace flashing in her eyes. "What kind of trouble have you gotten yourself into? Who did you offend?"
Chen Zheng waved his hand dismissively. "I’ll handle it myself."
Li Yitong sighed. "Do you need protection?"
Chen Zheng laughed. "Don’t be ridiculous. With my skills, if I can’t handle it, no one you send to protect could handle it either."
With that, Chen Zheng left in a police car.
He didn’t want to ask for help with this matter. He had called Li Yitong simply to inform her of what had happened. This way, if anything else occurred in the future, there would be an official record of the incident.
After getting ho, Chen Zheng downloaded a stock trading app and began checking the Qi Corporation’s stock.
Indeed, it was a sea of green—as green as the cuckold’s hat he imagined was nailed firmly to Qi Lei’s father’s head.
"Heh! The Qi Corporation? What a joke," Chen Zheng scoffed. He admired the stock’s downward trend for a mont before putting his phone down, washing up, and going to bed.
anwhile, because of him, soone else was on the verge of a ntal breakdown.
On the top floor of the Yunzhou Grand Hotel, Qi Lei was staring at a set of docunts, having read them over and over again.
