Chapter 511: I, Yuan Gangxian, Chief of the Yuan Clan!

~7 min read 1,275 words

Five days, five whole days, and you still have no results at all!

You idiot, you fool, where did your usual cleverness go?

Why can't you use your brain when doing things?

You really are...

Yuan Gangxian drooped his head: "I did my best, but I really can't figure out who... I..."

He really wanted to say, "My losses are huge too; all the warehouse supplies are gone."

But Yuan Gangxian didn't have the guts; as he racked his brains for an excuse, the office door was suddenly pushed open.

Taking a closer look, it was indeed his secretary.

Yuan Gangxian's anger flared up instantly, and he pointed at it, shouting angrily.

"Damn it, no manners at all!"

"Why didn't you knock? Get out and knock on the door right now."

"President, it's terrible, the warehouse... the warehouse is on fire." The secretary said tremblingly.

"What? A fire?" Yuan Gangxian stared wide-eyed.

At that moment the warehouse suddenly caught fire, and Yuan Gangxian's heart suddenly rose with a bad feeling.

"It might have been fine if it had burned earlier, but now it's burning up—clearly a guilty conscience of a thief."

Yuan Gangxian became more convinced that someone was behind this, fanning the flames.

The secretary hurriedly explained: "The fire is currently huge; we are organizing firefighting efforts, and the cause is also under investigation."

Yuan Gangxian was about to speak.

From the phone came Chi Mu Chengping's angry roar: "What's going on? What fire? I demand an explanation!"

Only then did Yuan Gangxian remember that the phone hadn't been hung up.

"Go check, go check right now!" Yuan Gangxian wished he could eat his own secretary for reporting such news, not knowing when.

The secretary hurriedly ran away.

Yuan Gangxian hurriedly explained to Chi Mu Chengping.

"Damn it, you idiot, this fire should have been set long ago; why are you only setting it now!" Chi Mu Chengping said, vexed that he couldn't make steel out of iron.

"I..." Yuan Gangxian hurriedly explained.

Chi Mu Chengping said: "What are you, you idiot, still wanting to say something? Don't explain—I'm sending a telegram to your father right now."

"Let him know exactly what foolish thing you've done!"

Having said that, Chi Mu Chengping hung up the phone directly.

Hearing no movement on the other end of the phone, Yuan Gangxian panicked right away.

If Father finds out about this, forget about inheriting the family headship—he wouldn't even be able to stay in Jinmen.

Yuan Gangxian was just about to call Chi Mu Chengping.

Ding-ling-ling~

The phone rang again.

Yuan Gangxian quickly picked up the phone and heard a frantic shout from the other end.

"Gang Xian, it's terrible—the Black Dragon Society's warehouse storing supplies is on fire."

"What?" Yuan Gangxian exclaimed in surprise: "You guys also had a fire?"

Captain Chunye was dumbfounded: "What do you mean 'also'? Could it be that you..."

"Exactly, my warehouse also caught fire." Yuan Gangxian said in a low voice.

"Someone is targeting us!"

Yuan Gangxian and Captain Chunye said in unison.

"Darn it, who dares to be this bold!" Captain Chunye gritted his teeth in anger.

Yuan Gangxian was about to speak when the door was violently pushed open.

"Ba..."

Yuan Gangxian couldn't even get out a "bah" before his gaze froze, then turned to delight.

Dark guard!

The dark guard he had met before.

"Chunye, I think I already have a solution; wait for my call, I'll get back to you as soon as possible!" Without letting Chunye speak, Yuan Gangxian hung up the phone.

He stepped forward quickly, first closing the door, then turning to Chen Yongren and saying: "You've finally come; I've been waiting for you these days."

"We've also been keeping an eye on you." Chen Yongren said expressionlessly, in a low voice: "We know everything about your situation."

Hearing this, Yuan Gangxian's expression froze.

"Smack!"

Chen Yongren swung a hard slap at Yuan Gangxian.

Yuan Gangxian spun twice on the spot, and a clear, visible handprint appeared on his face.

Immediately his legs went weak, and he plopped down onto the ground.

Yuan Gangxian felt dizzy, and all he could see before him was the clan chief's insignia.

Chen Yongren kicked out again.

"Bang~"

Yuan Gangxian flew sideways, his back slamming hard into the wall.

"Cough cough cough~"

Yuan Gangxian coughed violently, pointing at Chen Yongren, his face full of pain.

"Don't take it to heart; this is what the clan chief specifically instructed, you must be given a lesson." Chen Yongren said in a muffled voice.

This feeling of writing orders myself is really great.

Yuan Gangxian, who was originally blazing with anger, instantly softened upon hearing this: "Does Father know about this?"

"The clan chief already knew." Chen Yongren said.

Yuan Gangxian immediately panicked: "Let me explain… this…"

He was really worried that this matter would cause problems with his status as heir.

Chen Yongren said nothing, took out the clan chief's badge, and handed it to Yuan Gangxian: "The clan chief said, you are always his son, painstakingly raised you to adulthood—how could he easily give up on you?"

"Hold the badge and do what you ought to do."

"This matter needs a resolution."

Yuan Gangxian stared, then instantly became overjoyed.

Clan chief's badge.

The long-awaited clan chief's badge is finally in hand.

Yuan Gangxian hastily took the badge; without it he had no authority and lacked confidence, but now…

"The clan chief said, you can mobilize all resources in Jinmen; if possible, you can… temporarily let the Chief Commander Young Master help you bear the responsibility for this." Chen Yongren smiled.

Since we're going to set a trap, we might as well do it thoroughly.

In all of Jinmen, there is no one more weighty as a scapegoat than Yuan Chief.

Yuan Gangxian had no suspicion that this was a trap; he nodded and said, "Yes, I understand. Please tell my father that I will completely resolve this matter before tomorrow!"

Chen Yongren nodded slightly, turned and left immediately, heading straight to the Chi Mu Office to wait for the show to begin.

After Chen Yongren left, Yuan Gangxian quickly rose, walked to the phone, preparing to call Chi Mu Chengping to inform him to get Yuan Chief to take the blame.

After all, he dotes on Yuan Chief the most.

Being the older brother makes it unpleasant to do this, but it also conveniently stirs up their relationship.

Most importantly.

Yuan Gangxian wanted to see Chi Mu Chengping in anguish, yet he had no choice but to observe Yuan Chief's demeanor.

To some extent, this can satisfy its perverse psychology.

On Chi Mu Chengping's side.

The foolish things Yuan Gangxian did have already been sent via telegram to Jingdu.

A reply from Jingdu was soon received.

Just a simple sentence.

Have Yuan Gangxian return to Jingdu as soon as possible to admit guilt, temporarily let Yuan Chief take over the freight company, with Chi Mu Chengping assisting in handling company affairs.

They A Ren't even willing to say another word to Yuan Gangxian.

But in their view, this is already the best outcome for Yuan Gangxian.

"From now on, I will properly nurture the Chief!" Chi Mu Chengping muttered to himself: "Only a scion like the Chief, who embodies the tribe's finest genes, is worth cultivating!"

Ding-ling-ling~

Suddenly.

A burst of urgent phone ringing interrupted the old fogey's thoughts.

The phone was connected.

"Hello, I am Yuan Gangxian."

"Uncle Chi Mu, I command you in my capacity as Yuan Clan Chief."

"Immediately, right now, have Yuan Chief step forward and voluntarily assume full responsibility for these recent matters!"
