Chapter 179: The Enraged Chen Yangzhe (Please subscribe)

"What? Daojun was attacked?"

At Jeongsimjae, Chen Yangzhe, who had been in the middle of cultivating his character, was stunned the moment he heard this report from his secretary.

Then came a towering rage.

"Those bastards, those bullshit assemblymen!"

"To win a presidential election, they would actually stoop to such underhanded tactics; they are truly lawless! Who on earth gave them the courage?"

"Do they think that just because I, Chen Yangzhe, am old, they can act however they please? Daojun is the last hope of the Sunyang Group. If he is injured or killed, I will make sure everyone pays the price with him!"

Chen Yangzhe was truly furious.

He then suppressed his anger and asked his secretary: "How is Daojun now? Is he injured? Where is he? Have him return to my Jeongsimjae immediately; I have something to discuss with him."

Hearing Chen Yangzhe’s words, the secretary replied very respectfully: "Reporting to the Old Chairman, Chairman Daojun is currently at the home of Chief Prosecutor Xu Zai-zhong."

"Xu Zai-zhong?" Chen Yangzhe was taken aback; he never expected Chen Daojun to be with Xu Zai-zhong right now.

However, he suddenly remembered that Xu Zai-zhong had a daughter named Xu Minying, who was Chen Daojun’s university classmate.

He also knew that Chen Daojun and Xu Minying had been dating, and Chen Yangzhe actually quite liked this young girl.

After all, she was different from other second-generation elites.

She relied on her own hard work, not on her family, nor on her father’s prestige as the Prosecutor General.

She was an inspiring and hardworking girl who had passed the prosecutor’s exam on her own merit.

If she were to become the future wife of the Sunyang Group’s chairman,

he would absolutely give his full approval.

As a wife, Xu Minying didn’t need to be exceptionally powerful or capable, but she had to be someone who could ensure her husband maintained his dignity while out in the world.

Xu Minying was the daughter of the Prosecutor General, with high status and a pedigree of pure political lineage.

Yet she was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and she didn’t associate with those other wealthy second-generation heirs.

She remained as grounded as any ordinary person.

This was her greatest asset.

When a chaebol family selects a future daughter-in-law, they primarily look at character and family background.

Previously, he had valued Mo Hyun-min highly.

But Mo Hyun-min was now on her second marriage, and her reputation wasn't exactly pristine.

Marrying the older brother and then the younger brother.

If this news were to spread, it would greatly affect the Sunyang Group.

By comparison, Xu Minying, who was Chen Daojun’s classmate,

was more qualified, and if it got out, it would be considered a beautiful story.

Two people going from classmates to spouses would prove that Chen Daojun was not as fickle as the rumors suggested.

Instead, he was devoted and consistent, which would also help improve the overall image of the Sunyang Group.

After all, he was now a chaebol leader, and every move he made would be under scrutiny.

It would also be magnified by the media.

Chaebols usually pay even more attention to their image in front of the public than celebrities do.

Thinking of this,

Chen Yangzhe said to his secretary: "When Daojun leaves Xu Zai-zhong’s house, tell him to come to me immediately."

"Yes, Old Chairman!"

…………

"What, Grandfather wants me to go to his Jeongsimjae? It’s so late, is there something wrong?"

Having just finished chatting with his father-in-law, Xu Zai-zhong,

and enduring the lingering farewells with Xu Minying,

Chen Daojun returned to his car.

Just as he was about to drive back, he received a call from the Old Man’s secretary.

Hearing that the Old Man wanted him to return to Jeongsimjae, Chen Daojun felt a bit puzzled.

At this moment, he didn't know that the Old Man already knew about his brush with danger.

"Yes, Young Master Daojun, will you be coming yourself, or should I send someone to pick you up?"

Chen Yangzhe’s secretary said respectfully on the phone, and Chen Daojun waved his hand.

"I’ll come myself. Tell Grandfather I’ll be there soon."

"Understood, Young Master Daojun, please be careful on the road."

After ending the call,

Chen Daojun stepped on the gas,

and drove at high speed toward Chen Yangzhe’s Jeongsimjae.

As he drove, he thought to himself,

"I can't go out flaunting this supercar anymore."

He was a chaebol chairman now.

He needed to be more low-key, and he also had to get himself an armored car.

In case something like this happened again,

he might be fine, but the women around him would be in trouble.

They were ordinary people, after all; they couldn't defend against bullets like he could.

If they were hurt, no matter which one it was, Chen Daojun would be heartbroken.

Driving his slightly damaged Lamborghini, Chen Daojun sped all the way and soon arrived at the Old Man’s home.

After pulling the car to the entrance,

bodyguards immediately stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Chen Daojun.

"Young Master Daojun, you have arrived."

Chen Daojun nodded slightly and handed the car over to them to park.

He then straightened his clothes,

and walked into Jeongsimjae.

Passing through the foyer and the living room,

he saw at a glance that the Old Man, Chen Yangzhe, was sitting in the study, brewing tea while waiting for his arrival.

A faint smile appeared on Chen Daojun’s face.

"Grandfather, why aren't you asleep so late? Is there something you wanted to see me about?"

Seeing Chen Daojun arrive,

Chen Yangzhe looked him up and down, and upon finding no signs of injury, he said unhurriedly,

"If my secretary hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known you were nearly in danger. Tell me, what exactly happened?"

"Tell me the specific details of what happened."

Hearing Chen Yangzhe’s words, Chen Daojun said with a calm and lighthearted smile: "It’s nothing, I was just taking Prosecutor Xu’s daughter to Everland today, and on the way back, we were nearly hit by a car."

"The car was carrying Cui Youzhen, the chairwoman of the JSS Group, and her bodyguard, and they were being pursued by assassins."

"Min-young and I were just caught in the crossfire. They wanted to kill Cui Youzhen, but because Min-young and I were witnesses, they wanted to silence us."

"In the end, they failed, they died, Min-young and I are both fine, and we even saved Cui Youzhen in the process."

Hearing Chen Daojun’s understated tone, Chen Yangzhe didn't believe him at all. He glared at his grandson, full of suspicion, and said,

"Don't try to pull that on me, kid. Since when did you have the strength to take down armed assassins in a one-on-one fight? Do you think you're Superman? Or Spider-Man? They had guns; how could you possibly beat them with your bare hands?"

Chen Yangzhe looked unconvinced.

"Was there someone else there? Or was there a special forces unit nearby that just happened to save you?"

Who knew that upon hearing this,

Chen Daojun said with a grin, "Grandfather, I’m telling the truth, I took them out all by myself. You didn't know, did you, Grandfather? Actually, I was born with divine strength."

Hearing Chen Daojun’s serious tone,

Chen Yangzhe thought he was joking.

There is no such thing as born divine strength; he is a human, not a god.

How could a human, empty-handed, defeat fully armed mercenary killers?

He just assumed that Chen Daojun, without anyone noticing,

had established a mercenary company in addition to founding Miracle Investment.

After all, this grandson always managed to bring him unexpected surprises.

"Alright, let’s not talk about that. As long as you’re fine, that’s what matters. You said the woman you saved is named Cui Youzhen?"

"I remember she is the eldest princess of the JB Group, right? She is the wife of the presidential candidate and assemblyman Zhang Shijun, correct?"

"Her father and I were old acquaintances, but heaven is jealous of talent, and he passed away young."

Chen Yangzhe recalled.

"It seems this was a long-planned attack. As Zhang Shijun’s wife, Cui Youzhen is also responsible for managing his campaign affairs; she is his capable right-hand woman."

"Zhang Shijun’s opponent, Park Gwan-soo, has always been known for being ruthless. I really dislike that man."

"I didn't expect that this time, by accident, he would nearly hurt my grandson. How could I let him off easily? Daojun, Grandfather will get revenge for you!"

Hearing Chen Yangzhe’s words, Chen Daojun was surprised: "Old Man, you want to get involved in this too? There’s no need. Actually, I planned to handle it myself. Although I was just caught in the crossfire, Park Gwan-soo is breaking the rules by using so many mercenary killers within our South Korean borders."

"He must face sanctions. I’ve already discussed it with Chief Prosecutor Xu Zai-zhong. We must have the prosecutors investigate this in a big way. Once I get the evidence, I will definitely bring him down. These assemblymen have been acting more and more brazenly lately, causing extremely negative consequences. If I hadn't been capable, I might have died on the spot today."

"I don't think either of these assemblymen is fit to be president. What do you think, Grandfather?"

Hearing Chen Daojun’s words, Chen Yangzhe nodded slightly. Chen Daojun was a chaebol chairman now, and the aura he exuded with every gesture was full of confidence and dominance.

His words were spoken with such conviction that no one could doubt he would achieve it.

"Since you, Daojun, intend to take action yourself, then I will provide you with some support from behind the scenes. I think you should first find that Cui Youzhen. She should have some leverage on Park Gwan-soo. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so desperate."

"Cui Youzhen’s safety needs to be guaranteed."

Chen Yangzhe was, after all, an old fox.
