Chapter 717: I'll Go Solve Him
"But you need to be clear, the He Group hired you to be a manager, not to let you point fingers at the He Group's decision-making."
He Lingyun spoke without the slightest bit of courtesy, giving almost no face at all; this was vastly different from her previous persona, as she used to speak gently and politely, but now her tone was full of fighting spirit.
Sure enough, Wu Zhangcheng's expression changed slightly; having been at the company for over thirty years, he was considered a veteran, and even He Zhengye would speak to him politely when they met, yet He Lingyun's implication was that he was merely a servant.
"Hmph, President He, I certainly know that in the He Family I am just a servant, but I have worked conscientiously for the He Group all these years; even if I haven't achieved great merit, I have put in the hard work. Even if I am a servant, I'm afraid there would be many people who wouldn't agree if you wanted to drive me away."
"Uncle Wu, I have no intention of driving you away." A hint of a smile appeared on He Lingyun's face: "My new project complies with all the procedures of the He Group; isn't it a bit much for you to reject my funding application now?"
"The He Group has many new projects; you're in a hurry, but others are too." Wu Zhangcheng smiled: "The company's capital recovery is too slow right now, and the funds aren't circulating; you should wait a bit longer, hmm, it won't take too long, a year or so will be enough."
Wu Zhangcheng was an old fox, and He Lingyun was already certain he had defected to He Zhengye's side, but for the moment, she could do nothing about him.
The launch of a new project relies on seizing the initiative; in a year or so, the opportunity would be long gone. Wu Zhangcheng left the office with a forced smile and slammed the door shut.
"This old man is quite arrogant. Do you have his information? I'll go solve him." Chen Yu, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up.
"Let your Aunt Mu handle this matter." He Lingyun hesitated for a moment and said: "After all, he is a company veteran, someone from your grandfather's era. If he is unjust, I cannot be unrighteous."
"Aunt Mu is too familiar; he might not be afraid of her." Chen Yu smiled: "He doesn't know me, and he never looked at me properly when he entered the room. If I go, the pressure on him might be greater."
"Alright then, I'll send the information to you." He Lingyun pondered for a moment, then nodded.
Wu Zhangcheng left the building and got into a Bentley, telling the driver to head to his villa in the suburbs.
The Bentley was a custom model with a bulletproof body, and with privacy mode activated, no one outside could hear what was said inside.
With privacy mode on, Wu Zhangcheng took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Uncle Wu, how did things go?" He Zhengye's voice came through the receiver.
"I blocked the funds and just went to He Lingyun's office to explain the situation." Wu Zhangcheng said with a chuckle: "Zhengye, rest assured, since I promised to support you, I will definitely support you."
"Then thank you, Uncle Wu. As long as He Lingyun is driven out of the He Group, I promise you ten percent of the He Group's shares." He Zhengye laughed heartily.
"Haha, good. Zhengye, rest assured, although your sister is capable, whether it's playing at schemes or open strategies, she is no match for an old man like me." Wu Zhangcheng said with a chuckle.
"Uncle Wu is truly calculating. You have been in the company for so long and started the business with my father back in the day. Don't worry, once I take control of the He Group, I will give you enough shares to let you retire in peace." He Zhengye laughed.
"Good, but Zhengye, I saw a young man in her office just now." Wu Zhangcheng recalled Chen Yu in the office: "Do you know who this young man is?"
"You must mean Chen Yu. He is a Yisheng with quite good medical skills. I met him a few days ago, and he pointed out my hidden ailment at a glance. I am currently recuperating with Zhu Lao at Xianzhi Hall, but other than his medical skills, he shouldn't know anything else." He Zhengye said.
"Oh, so that's how it is." Wu Zhangcheng pondered, feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it for the moment.
"Alright Uncle Wu, I'll hang up first. Please put more effort into company matters. Once I have everything arranged, we will force a coup, and you must vote for me then." He Zhengye said and hung up the phone.
"A Yisheng?" Wu Zhangcheng put away his phone, still feeling that something was not quite right.
Suddenly, a flash of Spiritual Light crossed his mind, and Chen Yu's appearance reappeared in his thoughts; Chen Yu's Appearance and his gaze were very similar to someone in his memory.
"His surname is Chen, could it be..." Wu Zhangcheng was startled; he suddenly remembered He Lingyun's ex-husband, Chen Anyi, and realized Chen Yu and Chen Anyi actually looked somewhat alike.
Just at this moment, the Bentley slammed on the brakes; his center of gravity became unstable, and he was thrown forward violently. Bang! His head hit the seat in front of him hard.
"What's going on?" Wu Zhangcheng was furious and roared at the driver in front: "What are you doing? How are you driving?"
The bodyguard in front did not answer, and the surroundings were deathly quiet. Wu Zhangcheng traveled with a team of bodyguards, with four cars escorting him in front and behind. He pressed the intercom: "What happened?"
After saying this, the surroundings remained silent, and no one answered. Wu Zhangcheng opened the car door and stepped out.
After getting out, he couldn't help but shiver; the Bentley was parked in an extremely desolate place. This small road was definitely not the way to his home. Although it wasn't dark yet, the chirping of unknown birds in the vicinity made the place seem eerie.
"Where are the people? Where did everyone go?" Wu Zhangcheng roared in anger. He took out his phone, only to find there was no signal at all.
He found it unbelievable; he had just been on the phone with He Zhengye, so how could the signal be gone in the blink of an eye? And he remembered that they hadn't been out of the city for long, so how did he end up on this desolate road for no reason?
"President Wu, no need to shout, there's no one here." A figure flashed behind him, and a person walked out slowly. This person was none other than Chen Yu, whom he had just met in He Lingyun's office.
"It's you?" A strange look flashed in Wu Zhangcheng's eyes.
"It's me. Although President Wu didn't speak to me in the office just now, you deliberately looked at me a few more times." Chen Yu smiled faintly: "I think if nothing unexpected happened, you have already been guessing my identity."
"Who exactly are you? Why am I here? What do you want?" Wu Zhangcheng maintained his composure and took a step back, retreating to the car door.
His car was a custom bulletproof vehicle; if there was danger, he could dive straight into the car and lock the doors, and Chen Yu would be unable to do anything to him.
Unfortunately, his intention was seen through by Chen Yu. Chen Yu beckoned with his right hand, and the Li Chen appeared in his hand. With a clear shout, he raised his hand and swung the sword.
A streak of Sword Radiance suddenly lit up. With a hiss, the custom bulletproof Bentley was split in two by Chen Yu's Sword Qi.
Boom... The massive car body collapsed to both sides. Wu Zhangcheng was so scared his legs trembled; he tripped over his own feet and fell to the ground with a thud.
"What kind of person are you?" Wu Zhangcheng lay on the ground, looking at Chen Yu in terror as he backed away.
