Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The clashes in the business world did not involve smoke and fire, yet it was more scheming, cruel and dangerous compared to wars involving real guns and knives. The Wen Corporation, which stood strong in the city, lost half of what it had achieved in just a few short days and suffered heavy losses. Everyone felt regretful about it.

Almost anyone could see that the crisis that the Wen Corporation was currently facing was interwoven with the hugely successful Li Corporation. And honestly, what the Li Corporation was doing was just another mode of competition in the business world.

Except, Li Corporation was clever and Wen Corporation fell one step behind, causing them to become someone else’s stepping stone.

At the same time, the fights and conflicts occurring between Wen Corporation and Li Corporation were reported by someone else.

Everyone remembered that the Wen Family raised a girl as their own for twelve years, and that was the illegitimate child from the Xia Family. Today, she had become Xia Ruya, the successor to the Li Corporation.

Xia Ruya’s grievances with the Wen Family was well known amongst the upper-class society. Back then, Xia Ruya caused quite a lot of trouble, many of which were still fresh in people’s memories.

When they talked about Xia Ruya, it was nearly all negative news, and everyone had something bad to say about her.

Even if she became the successor of the Li Family, this point would never change.

Wen Corporation’s reputation in the business circle had always been quite good, but they were dragged down by the Li Corporation, which was about Xia Ruya being ungrateful. She caused a lot of negative news and was just an evil individual.

However, the truth was cruel.

Li Corporation was successful and had good standing. The more people scolded, mocked and despised them, their name and reputation, the more they grew bigger and the more their share prices increased, and so did their market share.

This was probably the effect of them being widely talked about in the entertainment circle.

Chu Jingnan curiously asked, “Based on what I know, those few distributors had been working with the Wen Corporation for many years and had good personal relations with Old Mr. Wen. What terms did you use to make them cooperate with you to bring down the Wen Corporation?”

Although in the business world profits were king, those distributors were some of the Wen Corporation’s closest business partners. This was well known in the upper-class society. Without enough benefits, who would be willing to cooperate with an unjust company and help bring down a trusted partner that they had worked with for many years?

“In business, there is no permanent friendship, only profits. I gave them a price three times better than what Wen Family offered, and they knew the situation well. They knew that the Wen Corporation would suffer under Li Corporation’s rise and would no longer be on top. They had no reason to cause themselves to suffer losses over friendship.”

However, what Xia Ruya did not tell Chu Jingnan was that she had approached over ten distributors that worked with the Wen Corporation, but they all rejected her over claims of image, reputation, loyalty, or relationship.

Ultimately, only three of the distributors agreed to her terms.

However, although it was only three of them, it was more than enough to cause a huge blow to Wen Corporation and let Old Mr. Wen taste the feeling of being betrayed.

Chu Jingnan held her in an embrace and praised her. “You know people and how to manipulate them so well. I am totally in awe of you.”

Chu Jingnan spoke the truth.

Compared to Xia Ruya, who was good at understanding and manipulating people, he was better at analysis and calculations.

The two of them made up for each other’s weaknesses.

Xia Ruya laughed out loud. “It’s only about profits, after all.”

She admitted that she had some tricks up her sleeves, but in terms of business dealings, she was nothing close to Chu Jingnan. Chu Jingnan took just slightly over a month to successfully take control of the Xiao Corporation after he joined them.

Chu Jingnan smiled and changed the topic. “What do you plan to do next?”

Xia Ruya acted quickly and ruthlessly, and the clothing industry had already collapsed before the Wen Corporation even had time to react. They lost the wealth that they had built up over many years and the corporation suffered heavy losses, becoming the Li Corporation’s tool.

Even he lamented that Xia Ruya was ruthless and calculative.

Xia Ruya did not even think about it before coldly laughing. “Of course, I will strike while the iron is still hot and continue launching attacks on the Wen Corporation. How dare Old Mr. Wen threaten me.”

She indeed did not dare to bring the Wen Corporation to court and did not dare to press on with Lu Bingxin.

But so what?

Without Lu Bingxin, she could still make the Wen Corporation suffer irreparable losses.

Chu Jingnan said, “Wen Corporation is in a dire situation now, anyway. Old Mr. Wen is just being stubborn, he does not truly want to bring you to court.”

In his eyes, the cunning and calculative Old Mr. Xiao was not as bold as Old Mr. Wen. However, his courage all stemmed from the foundations of his company. Given that the Wen Corporation lost half of its foundation already and was deeply embedded in such a crisis, he did not think that Old Mr. Wen would still remain as bold.

Xia Ruya shook her head. “Ah Nan, he’s famous for being bold and decisive in the business world. This is definitely not just a rumor. I was the Wen Family’s daughter for twelve years and was adopted for three. Thus, I know exactly what kind of person he is. He gave up on a daughter that he raised for twelve years just like that and sacrificed his own son easily. You think he’s just being stubborn?”

In this world, no one understood Wen Zhihang better than she did.

He was a pretentious man who could deceive the world, as he always felt that someone else was always in the wrong.

At the start, Wen Family was the one who chose to fetch her back but then abandoned her in the end. He acted all affectionately and asked her back to the family yet again, but she knew that she could not accept it. He then threw some money and assets at her just to get rid of her.

For just that bit of money, he thought he could make her completely forget about the Wen Family?

This was just fake and pretentious.

Chu Jingnan then changed his opinion, as what she said indeed made sense. “Looks like Old Mr. Wen is harder to deal with than Old Mr. Xiao.”

Old Mr. Xiao cared about too much and calculated too much. Hence, he would fear more things. As for Old Mr. Wen, he was bold and would take action. Hence, he was hard to deal with. They must go through a lot in order to deal with the Wen Corporation.

Xia Ruya coldly snorted. “What Old Mr. Wen cares most about is the Wen Family’s business. Therefore, I will make sure to destroy the Wen Corporation and make him regret choosing Wen Xinya over me back then. Wen Xinya made calculations against me just to be part of the Wen Family. I must make her life difficult and make her lose everything she has.”

Every day when the night fell, her hatred for Old Mr. Wen and Wen Xinya grew more and more, gnawing at her heart. This made her feel extremely terrible every single day.

Only when she made them suffer through such pain could she relieve her hatred.

“Don’t worry, the highlight of the show is yet to come.”
