Chapter 798: He Zhengye's Means

~7 min read 1,362 words

Chen Yu remained silent; these two old things who would not die were his closest kin, yet they were also the ones who had harmed him most severely.

"Little Chen, you have finally come over." Just at this moment, Gu Ping walked over while supporting Zhou Laotaijun.

"Old Matriarch, it should have been me going over to see you." Chen Yu hurriedly stood up to welcome her.

"It is fine, it is quite good for me to come to Old Gu's place to sit for a while and move about." Zhou Laotaijun said with a smile: "I have heard about your affairs; how do you want the two of us to cooperate with you today?"

"My eldest uncle He Zhengye is also known to you two elders." Chen Yu smiled; the two elders' all-out support made him feel somewhat moved.

"We know him. That boy has average ability; he is passable guarding the He Family, but he is not capable of expanding territory." Zhou Laotaijun shook her head and said: "He is far inferior to your father, Chen Anyi."

"My father? Chen Anyi?" Chen Yu was startled: "Does the old lady understand him?"

"Understanding is not the word, but among the people of his generation, he could be considered an outstanding talent." Zhou Laotaijun said: "He and your mother were also very loving; at the time, he and your mother were a talented man and a beautiful woman, a pair of lovers that people in the circle all thought highly of, but who would have thought they would still part ways in the end."

"What was the reason?" A stormy sea surged in Chen Yu's heart.

"They say it was because a mistress took the top spot, but that vixen was far inferior to your mother. I do not believe he would have such poor judgment; there must be a hidden story in this. So, Little Chen, if you see him one day, do not blame him. After all, the Chen Family's situation is quite special; clarify what happened before saying anything else."

Chen Yu did not react for a long while. He had never seen his own biological father, but he had heard that after the incident occurred back then, Chen Anyi had found a woman and divorced his mother.

Therefore, in Chen Yu's impression, Chen Anyi had always been the type of person without any sense of responsibility. Hearing Zhou Laotaijun say this, he felt that things were perhaps not that simple.

Perhaps he was constrained by Chen Tianming? Chen Tianming was a very terrifying person; Chen Yu's past and present lives had both been manipulated by him, so it was not impossible that he had forcibly broken up his parents.

"Thank you for the reminder, Old Lady. I will investigate this matter thoroughly." Chen Yu nodded slightly and said: "In a few days, I am returning to the He Family. The current situation of the He Group has already reached a point of extreme peril."

"He Zhengye cannot tolerate me and my mother, and naturally, we cannot tolerate him either," Chen Yu said.

"Rest assured, the people He Zhengye has in the military and political spheres will be handled by me and Old Sister Zhou." Old Gu said: "When the time comes, the people from the Military Commission and the center of power will not trouble you; just go ahead and do it."

"That is good. Thank you, you two elders." Chen Yu stood up and bowed deeply to the two elders.

"Haha, go ahead and do it. After you return to the He Family, you must come to attend Pingping's wedding," Old Gu laughed heartily.

After leaving Old Gu's place, Chen Yu went straight to the He Group.

"There is basically no resistance at the company now. Seventy percent of He Zhengye's confidants have already defected to our side, but he himself does not know it yet."

He Lingyun said leisurely while watering a cactus: "But this eldest brother of mine is suspicious by nature; he will not put all his eggs in one basket, so there is one more person who must be handled."

"He Group Vice President Xia Yue?" Chen Yu asked.

"Correct. She is He Zhengye's mistress, a graduate of a famous foreign university, possesses dual degrees, and her ability is still very strong. She is thirty-six years old this year." He Lingyun said: "She is also the person He Zhengye trusts the most. If she does not defect, she will be a thorn in our side."

"The problem is that she has absolute trust and loyalty toward He Zhengye." Chen Yu said with a furrowed brow: "This is the biggest problem we are facing."

"Then make her lose confidence in He Zhengye." He Lingyun smiled faintly: "Extraordinary times require extraordinary means."

Chen Yu nodded. He pondered for a long while before saying: "Regarding Chen Anyi, do you have nothing you want to say to me?"

"Everything is fine, why bring him up?" He Lingyun's expression changed slightly.

"I learned from Old Gu that he is not as irresponsible as he appears on the surface. On the contrary, his ability among his peers is considered outstanding. Why did he abandon you back then?" Chen Yu asked.

"I do not know. All these years, he has never shown his face in the Chen Family. The woman he married after his remarriage is named Qiu Yanfang, and all these years, she has been the one controlling the Chen Family." He Lingyun's expression was complex: "And I have always believed that since Chen Anyi had this woman to help him handle family affairs, he himself just indulged in pleasure."

"Find an opportunity to investigate it clearly." Chen Yu sighed softly: "Sometimes what you see with your own eyes may not be true. Chen Tianming is not a pushover either; perhaps he has unspeakable difficulties."

The expression on He Lingyun's face did not change, but Chen Yu felt that her eyes had clearly brightened.

Just at this moment, two soft sounds suddenly came from outside the door.

These soft sounds were gunshots from a weapon equipped with a silencer. Chen Yu was shocked and suddenly blocked in front of He Lingyun.

Almost at the same time, the office door banged open, and two men in suits rushed in. Both raised the guns in their hands without hesitation.

Chen Yu spread his arms, intending to kill the two, but two bangs of gunfire rang out, and the two fell to the ground in response.

He saw Yu Jianhe, covered in blood, rush in with a gun raised. He shouted in a deep voice: "President He, hurry and leave! There are assassins."

"Go." He Lingyun's expression was not flustered in the slightest. She pulled Chen Yu and left with Yu Jianhe.

Yu Jianhe was He Lingyun's bodyguard. He was a former special forces soldier and had served as a security consultant at the Academy of Sciences. He led He Lingyun and Chen Yu to an elevator. This elevator was a private elevator; in an emergency, pressing the emergency button would allow the elevator to go directly to a safe house in the basement.

There was a specially made bulletproof Bentley there. Once in the car, they would drive out through a private passage until they reached a safe house.

Because He Lingyun's identity was special, and the He Group still retained a biotechnology company that was researching some of the results left behind by Chen Yu's maternal grandfather He Tiansheng, her identity was protected by superiors. Once an emergency occurred, special police would arrive to rescue them.

In the elevator, Yu Jianhe smashed the emergency button with one punch, and the elevator descended rapidly.

In a safe house in the basement, Mu Xi was already waiting.

"Are you alright?" Seeing He Lingyun and Chen Yu, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I am fine. Who did this?" He Lingyun's expression was tense but not flustered in the slightest; it seemed she had long anticipated this situation.

"Some unidentified mercenaries who snuck in from abroad." Mu Xi said: "If I am not mistaken, it has to do with your eldest brother."
