Chapter 168: Really Pissed Off

Wang Mouren was sitting in a position that didn't bother anyone, full of arrogance. He didn't know whose workstation it was, anyway, his long legs were propped up on the table, holding a phone in his hand and not knowing what he was swiping, swaying back and forth, looking carefree, which made others want to beat him up as a big idiot. Of course, thinking about it was enough to vent; after all, Wang Mouren was the big boss, who was crazy?

Shi Xiaomeng wanted to go to the office, but Wang Mouren's arrogant look was truly too eye-catching, and he saw him at a glance. He stepped forward. "Morning, Brother Wang."

Hearing the movement, Wang Yan looked lazily at Shi Xiaomeng's chin. "Xiaomeng is here, let's go, let's go drink tea."

As he spoke, he stood up, stretched, and walked toward the office first.

"Brother, I saw our WeChat billboards all over the street on the way here, even on the buses, everything is going smoothly, right?" Shi Xiaomeng followed behind; he knew Wang Yan had certain expectations for WeChat.

"Not bad, no problems." Wang Yan said, "Did you tell Shen Bing when you went back yesterday?"

"Mm, she didn't agree, but there was no other way." Shi Xiaomeng nodded. "Brother, what is Shen Bing coming over for?"

By the time they finished talking, they had already entered the office. Sitting by the tea table, Wang Yan shook his head and said with a smile, "Xiaomeng, things have changed."

Shi Xiaomeng was stunned for a moment, thinking Wang Yan didn't want to care anymore, and his face stiffened slightly as he waved his hand. "It's fine, Brother, I'll think of other ways."

Seeing him like that, how could Wang Yan not understand what Shi Xiaomeng was thinking? He explained immediately, "Where did your mind go? It's not that your brother won't help you, but that there's no need for me now."

Shi Xiaomeng asked in confusion, "What happened, Brother?"

"Last night, Dade Group chairman Cheng Shengen had a sudden heart attack and was hospitalized." Wang Yan handed him his phone with a smile, shaking his head and clicking his tongue. "He's had two attacks in a month, this time he'll likely die on the operating table."

Taking the phone and looking at the news above, Shi Xiaomeng raised his head. "Brother, you mean..."

"Of course, his father is about to die—oh, or maybe he doesn't care about Cheng Shengen's life or death, but what about the Dade Group? He definitely has to fight for it, so how would he have the mind to pester Shen Bing?"

Wang Yan started to skillfully play with the tea set. "Xiaomeng, what your brother promised you definitely counts. If Shen Bing comes, I'll find someone to take her to do some clerical work first, let her adapt. However, I think you should see what she thinks."

"Okay, I'll call her and tell her."

Saying that, Shi Xiaomeng stood up and went out to call Shen Bing.

Wang Yan drank tea silently. To tell the truth, he was also very surprised when he received the report from his subordinates earlier. After all, he hadn't taken action yet, but that old bastard Cheng Shengen was about to die; this butterfly effect was a bit too fierce.

As he said, without Cheng Shengen, Cheng Feng was truly a dog-basket. That unlearned second-generation ancestor wanted to break wrists with a group of old bastards like Liang Junzheng, which was basically looking for death. It didn't even need him to take action; those old bastards would directly let Cheng Feng end up on the street, and the outcome would definitely be very miserable.

But the money that should be earned must be earned. The Dade Group was leaderless, internal strife, definitely a mess. By the time the market opened at nine-thirty, the stock price wouldn't lie, it would definitely be a crazy dive. He could operate it on his side, and it would basically be like picking up money. If it went smoothly, it wouldn't be impossible to directly bankrupt the Dade Group, saving a group of old bastards from calculating back and forth, and also helping those people save some trouble.

It was just a Dade Group, not worth Wang Mouren wasting too much energy. The specific operations were left to his group of subordinates; he only needed to give tasks and reward or punish them at the end. The superior works by employing people.

After a while, Shi Xiaomeng came back from calling and sat down. "Brother, Shen Bing isn't coming, she still wants to be a kindergarten teacher."

Wang Yan nodded. "Good, I'll still say the same thing, you can come anytime you want."

Shi Xiaomeng drank tea and pondered. "Brother, there's something I'm not sure about, can you analyze it for me?"

"Tell me."

"It's like this, I went to find Wu Di last night..." Shi Xiaomeng went through the whole thing, and emphatically talked about how he told Wu Di about Cheng Shengen finding him to buy his wife. "Brother, you say if Cheng Shengen dies, am I..."

Wang Yan looked steadily at Shi Xiaomeng, who was drinking tea with his head down. He didn't believe Shi Xiaomeng didn't know what kind of character Cheng Feng was, didn't believe Shi Xiaomeng didn't know what kind of personality Wu Di had, didn't believe Shi Xiaomeng hadn't thought that Wu Di would tell Cheng Feng, and even more wouldn't have thought that Cheng Feng would go to find Cheng Shengen, who was lying in the hospital bed, to make a big scene.

Alright, this kid. Suffering a loss truly makes one remember the lesson and learn experience. This move clearly shows he learned from that bastard Hu Rongqiang, truly learning and applying it.

He thought Shi Xiaomeng wouldn't be ruthless if he hadn't encountered so many messy things, but Wang Yan had to admit he had indeed looked down on Shi Xiaomeng before. No way, staying in the clouds for too long makes one float, makes one have a player mentality; to put it nicely, it's like a tiger taking a nap, indeed ignoring the great power of a small person. Mainly, he hadn't taken Shi Xiaomeng as a matter, ignoring the subjective initiative of the characters in the drama.

However, even if he didn't ignore it, Wang Mouren wouldn't care...

But it had to be said, Shi Xiaomeng walked step by step from the poor hometown to now, he didn't lack thick skin, and this time he could be ruthless enough to use small means to send Cheng Shengen away, and looking at him, he didn't seem to have any regret or fear. It could be said that he was thick-skinned and black-hearted, and that was half of success...

As for the remaining half, naturally, it was opportunity. With Wang Mouren here, there were platforms and opportunities, if he didn't succeed, then it would truly be unreasonable, and it would be God not knowing what he was doing.

"What does this have to do with you? It's Cheng Feng who isn't striving, you don't need to overthink it." Symbolically comforting him, Wang Yan turned and said, "It just so happens that Cheng Shengen is in danger this time, and the Dade Group will definitely be affected quite a bit. Do you have any research on stocks and securities?"

Shi Xiaomeng didn't understand what his Brother Wang meant and asked in confusion, "Just some common sense understanding, very shallow. What's wrong, Brother?"

He was interested in these things when Wu Di introduced his brother Wu Wei to him, and he was conquered by Wu Wei's arrogant look of not pissing on anyone.

"I have a financial company, and I definitely can't let go of this opportunity this time. How about it, do you want to go over and play for two days, open your eyes and see?"

Hearing this, Shi Xiaomeng was quite moved; after all, watching Cheng Feng fall was quite refreshing, but they were friends after all, so he'd better not go and beat a dog in the water, just wish Cheng Feng would die without a burial place.

"Forget it, Brother, I don't understand much, so don't go and cause trouble for others."

"If you don't go, forget it." Wang Yan drank tea and said, "Oh, right, Xiaomeng, there's one more thing to tell you."

"You say, Brother."

Putting down the teacup, Wang Yan picked up his phone and swiped it again, handing it to Shi Xiaomeng. "Hu Rongqiang jumped off the building and died, also last night."

Surprised for a moment, Shi Xiaomeng took the phone and looked at it.

He had no contact with his former colleagues, and he was busy learning early and late just to work formally as soon as possible. To put it ugly, if it weren't for the ten million matter, he wouldn't even have the opportunity to pay attention to Shen Bing, so he didn't know about the things that happened at Hu's Advertising in the last few days at all.

After reading the reported news, Shi Xiaomeng looked up at Wang Yan. "Brother, the one who sued him is our company, Hu Rongqiang he..."

"Don't look at me like that, I didn't think about doing anything to him, just wanted to make him bleed a little and remember the lesson, didn't expect him to evade so much tax... I don't know how he is usually, but how he treated you is what I saw. I think he wouldn't be much better to others. For someone like that, dying isn't a bit unjust..."

Learning of Hu Rongqiang's death, Shi Xiaomeng's mood was still very complicated. One was that he had followed Hu Rongqiang since graduation, and he had indeed helped him a little. The other was that later Hu Rongqiang used him, wanting him to sell his girlfriend to help Hu Rongqiang make money.

He wasn't a fool; even if he really did what Hu Rongqiang wanted, after selling Shen Bing, what was divided to him was only that pitiful little bit. Compared to that, it was better to trade directly with that old bastard Cheng Shengen, after all, there was no middleman, and he got ten million.

In the past, he had thought about cleaning up Hu Rongqiang after he made it, but now that the person was already dead, he was at a loss for a while, because that breath had suddenly leaked out.

As for how Hu Rongqiang died, hmm... whatever his Brother Wang said, he believed.

Shi Xiaomeng was silent for a long time, opened his mouth to thank him. "Brother, thank you..."

No matter what, he knew Wang Yan had no reason to study Hu Rongqiang; after all, he had been in contact with Wang Yan for such a long time, and he knew what level of player Wang Yan was. To put it ugly, someone like Hu Rongqiang wasn't even worthy of carrying Wang Yan's shoes. Then why would Wang Yan waste energy? Wasn't it just to help his little brother vent his anger...

Wang Yan waved his hand indifferently. "I just did it because Hu Rongqiang priced my face at thirty thousand, don't think too much. A small character, handled it when I said I would, nothing big."

Regarding Wang Yan's understated words, Shi Xiaomeng touched his nose and didn't speak again. He naturally knew Wang Yan was telling the truth, it was just this arrogant style... damn, the damned rich man.

Drinking a pot of tea as usual, Shi Xiaomeng went back to work, and Wang Yan tidied up the tea set and continued to go out to watch his subordinates work.

This WeChat movement was quite big, Tencent wasn't blind, they would definitely take action. After all, such a big company had its home stolen by a small workshop that no one had heard of, which was a bit embarrassing. If it wasn't handled well, it would be a joke in the industry, and one that would be laughed at for many years.

Wang Mouren wasn't afraid of that; in fact, as long as WeChat had a go with Tencent this time and stood firm, and then waited for a period of time for him to launch Pinyidao, he wouldn't be afraid of Tencent anymore.

He had already handled the payment business, just waiting to see how many users could be retained after the fight, and then operate accordingly. Payment was based on WeChat's own market share; if not many people used WeChat, the payment he brought out would be like a joke. He still had to wait for Pinyidao to go online, doing activities to pull in new users on one side, and bringing up the payment on the other.

And if he wanted to develop, he definitely needed people to promote it. The problem Shi Xiaomeng could see, Wang Yan naturally wouldn't fail to think of. Having his own ground-push team was a must, and in the future, he would also be involved in local life services, so ground-push was indispensable. The leader Wang Yan had already recruited, and the team was currently being formed. After Pinyidao went online, he would directly launch a big promotion with WeChat.

Shi Xiaomeng returned to his workstation and sat down, starting to learn work.

He had been here for almost a month, and the large amount of strange things made him find the feeling of when he was in school, and he also took these as re-education, taking out the energy of taking the college entrance exam to learn, to absorb, to fight. Overall, the progress was quite good, and he could already handle some things independently.

Focusing on doing things, time always passes quickly. By the time Shi Xiaomeng felt the urge to urinate, it was almost ten o'clock. He stood up and strolled through the vegetable market, curiously watching the fun with others for a while, and then swayed to the restroom...

While washing his hands, Shi Xiaomeng thought of the Dade Group matter Wang Yan mentioned in the morning, thinking about going back to see what the Dade Group looked like in a while.

Going back, he poured a glass of water, put in a pinch of tea leaves given by Wang Yan, took a sip happily, and then comfortably opened the stock market website.

When he found the Dade Group stock market, what came into view first after the website loaded was a piece of green. Shi Xiaomeng looked carefully, hmm, very good, it hit the limit down...

Looking at the green in front of him, after thinking for a while, Shi Xiaomeng picked up the phone and walked out again. He wanted to call Wu Di and understand the detailed situation...

Wu Di's location wasn't close either; he hadn't even arrived home yesterday when Cheng Feng called him over.

When he received Shi Xiaomeng's call, he was waiting for the result outside the operating room with him.

Glancing at the listless Cheng Feng, Wu Di walked to the distance and answered the phone. "Xiaomeng? What's wrong?"

"Don't know, waiting for the result."

"Sigh, don't mention it, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have told Madman that his dad found you yesterday."

"Mm, alright, won't talk to you anymore."

Wu Di hung up the phone and walked back with a long sigh.

He didn't think Shi Xiaomeng had ulterior motives, just thought he was venting to him; he attributed everything to his own meddling, attributed it to his own talkativeness. Anyway, if Cheng Shengen died, he couldn't escape the blame.

Cheng Feng's throat was hoarse, his eyes focused. "Who was it?"

"Xiaomeng." Wu Di opened the water and handed it to him. "Drink some water, your lips are cracked."

Taking the water, Cheng Feng took a sip. "What did he call for? Watching my joke?"

"Xiaomeng isn't that kind of person, he saw the news and knew I must be here, so he called me to understand the situation."

Cheng Feng hummed and didn't speak again, continuing to stare blankly at the lit "In Surgery" sign.

Last time Cheng Shengen was rescued after more than ten hours, this time it had already exceeded the last surgery time. He had a premonition that this time he would likely be finished.

Although he was always talking about revenge, and he was also acting in his own way, no matter what, he was his own father, the person who gave him a comfortable life, and his only relative in the world. His feelings were still very complicated.

Now that his father's life or death was unknown, and he would likely be cold, he didn't know what to do for a while, and his brain was a mess of thoughts.

Just like this, after a while, the sign outside the operating room went out, and then the door was pushed open.

Cheng Feng raised his head suddenly, staring fixedly at the operating room door without blinking. Hearing the movement, even though he was at the door, Wu Di still subconsciously stepped forward two steps.

In the gaze of the two, the doctor who walked out took off his mask. "I'm very sorry, your father at..."

Cheng Feng couldn't hear what the doctor said later, his body softened and he slid down from the chair.

He knew what Cheng Shengen's words that didn't come out yesterday were. Based on his understanding of Cheng Shengen, that sentence must have been "Get out." When he was young and ignorant, he had thought of countless ways for Cheng Shengen, this father who indirectly caused him to lose his mother, to die.

Among these ways of death, none of them was being angered to death by him, Cheng Feng, Cheng Shengen's own son. What he couldn't accept even more was that the last sentence his father left in the world was "Get out"...

"Dad..."

Cheng Feng finally broke down, let out a miserable howl, and crawled toward the inside of the operating room with his hands and feet.

"You can't go in, the suturing is currently in progress, please cooperate..." (Haven't experienced it, don't know if the order is like this, brothers who know can correct me, I will change it.)

Wu Di came back to his senses and hurriedly helped the doctor stop Cheng Feng. "Madman, Madman, the dead cannot be resurrected, please calm down..."

"That's my dad, my own dad is dead, you tell me, how can I calm down, hmm? How to calm down?" Cheng Feng struggled and roared. "And you, Wu Di, stop acting hypocritical here, if you hadn't told me those things, my dad wouldn't have died..."

People without responsibility always find excuses when encountering things, always escape, always attribute mistakes to others, in order to release themselves and obtain spiritual relief.

Cheng Feng was like this, so it was not strange that he would subconsciously blame Wu Di when he was angry. This was also because he was angry, and his words didn't pass through his brain, otherwise he wouldn't have said it without thinking.

Wu Di, who was pulling him hard, became serious when he heard this. He had originally felt that Cheng Shengen's death couldn't be separated from him, and now the person involved had given him a name, and he thought so too.

Wu Di's face stiffened, and he didn't speak, just gritted his teeth and pulled Cheng Feng so he wouldn't disturb. The matter had already happened, the person was dead and the lamp was extinguished, there was no possibility of turning back. What he had to do was make up for it, was to atone for his sins. After the matter passed, when Cheng Feng calmed down, he could hit or scold him as he pleased...

The speed of reporters was something ordinary people couldn't imagine. Cheng Shengen had been dead for less than half an hour, and the news of the Dade Group chairman's death had already filled the sky. Of course, the general public wouldn't care who Cheng Shengen was, and what filled the sky was only the business section. Those who knew the news and cared were only those related to the interests.

Lin Xia worked in the fashion circle, but Cheng Feng was in the business circle. The future father-in-law Cheng Shengen she imagined before was still the chairman of this listed company, Dade Group, so she naturally paid attention; after all, she had to know about her own family's industry.

Although she had recently broken up with Cheng Feng, it was still the same sentence, the sunk cost was too high, so she would habitually pay attention to things related to Cheng Feng and the Dade Group. And even if she didn't pay attention, the gossiping colleagues around her would also mention it as fresh news.

Looking at the news on the computer, Lin Xia couldn't imagine how Cheng Feng would survive such a blow; she had to be by his side.

Without saying a word, she picked up her small bag, greeted the editor-in-chief, and ran.

She didn't expect the editor-in-chief to agree at all, she didn't care if he agreed or not, she was just telling him... ===== CHAPTER 169 =====
