Chapter 70: Taking Advantage of the Situation

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhou Catering Group…

In the CEO’s office…

Zhou Wanqiu stared at Su Chen.

Zhou Rongchang and Zhou Pingjiang were also looking at Su Chen.

Su Chen was not used to it. “What did you say?”

“Why are you acting dumb?” Zhou Wanqiu rolled her eyes at Su Chen.

Zhou Rongchang also laughed. “Su Chen, how did you know that Director Li Wandao was coming to help us?”

Su Chen found a random excuse. “I was outside, and I heard Li Wandao reprimanding Tan Saicheng and Wu Yihua on his way here. That’s why I rushed back.”

“That’s it?” Zhou Wanqiu stared at Su Chen.

Su Chen shrugged. “That’s it! Of course, maybe I saved Li Wandao’s family.

Maybe he came to help us out of gratitude! You could think that too.”

“Will you die if you don’t brag?” Zhou Wanqiu rolled her eyes.

Su Chen smiled.

He knew that Zhou Wanqiu wouldn’t believe him if he told her the truth.

“Looks like we had a stroke of good luck,” said Zhou Pingjiang with a smile.

Zhou Rongchang did not say anything, but he looked at Su Chen with a meaningful gaze.

Su Chen left Zhou Wanqiu’s office.

Just as he stepped out of the door, his phone rang.

It was an unknown number.

Su Chen answered.

“Mr. Su, it’s Li Wandao. Are you happy with how things went?”

A gentle male voice came from the other end.

“Thank you, Mr. Li.”

“The Li family should be thanking you. My uncle said that you should come to visit us whenever you’re free!”

Li Wandao deliberately befriended Su Chen.

Su Chen smiled. “Alright!”

They hung up.

Su Chen sighed. Compared to Li Chunran, Li Wandao was much better.

Soon, Su Chen returned to the secretaries’ office.

The moment he entered…

Bang!

A loud sound rang out.

Immediately after, ribbons and gold star confetti scattered down from the sky.

Su Chen was dumbfounded.

Meanwhile, Zhang You, Liu Pan, Su Jiao, Tian Yong, and the others held onto their cannons and rushed toward Su Chen.

“Su Chen, Su Chen! We’re free!”

“Hahaha! Get lost, she-devil! We’re free!”

“We should go out for a drink tonight!”

Everyone celebrated excitedly.

Only then did Su Chen realize that these guys were actually celebrating Gao Min’s departure.

They planned this in less than an hour. They even had confetti canons.

Zhang You and the others surrounded Su Chen, jumping and shouting.

Even the few honest employees joined in, looking very excited.

Su Chen smiled. It turned out that these guys had had enough of Gao Min. They had been enduring it for so long.

Now that Gao Min had left, they were also very excited.

Zhang You went up to Su Chen and asked, “Su Chen, why aren’t you celebrating?”

Su Chen ignored him.

He was different from these people.

They had enough of Gao Min’s oppression, so they were excited when Gao Min left.

Su Chen hadn’t taken Gao Min seriously at all, so it didn’t matter to him if she left or not.

‘If Zhou Wanqiu left, perhaps…’

Su Chen secretly thought about it and laughed.

The people in Zhou Catering Group were extremely excited.

At this moment…

Two other people were also very excited.

On the road…

A black and white Bentley was speeding down the road.

In the backseat of the car, He Zhentian looked excited.

Wu Yiqi was sitting beside him, and he also looked excited.

“President He, Zhou Catering Group is doomed!” Wu Yiqi laughed loudly. “Congratulations! You can finally assume complete control of the food and beverage industry in Bin Cheng!”

He Zhentian was all smiles, but he felt a trace of regret in his heart.

It was a pity that he had already sought Zhao Shijie’s help. Zhao Shijie was the son of Zhao Chongling, who was the richest man in Bin Cheng. If not for them, he would become the real leader of the food and beverage industry in Bin Cheng.

However, on second thought, He Zhentian quickly let go.

If Zhao Shijie could take Zhou Catering Group down this way, he could do the same to He Catering Group.

He might as well be Zhao Shijie’s dog.

Although he answered to someone now, his power had still increased a lot.

‘If that’s the case, 1 can accept it!’ He Zhentian thought to himself.

Wu Yiqi continued, “President He, I’ve asked my brother, Wu Yihua. He said that Chief Tan is trying to shut down Zhou Catering Group. They will fall this time, and they will fall hard!”

“Of course!” He Zhentian laughed. The fall of the Zhou Catering Group was inevitable. At this time, the shareholders of their company would definitely want to cash out as soon as possible.

“They have to sell their assets at a low price. They’re like meat on the chopping board!”

“Zhou Catering Group has the Qin Family Tianhao Group project, the Hao Bin Food Street project, and the Binjiang Entertainment City food center project.”

Wu Yiqi’s eyes lit up, revealing a trace of greed.

“Congratulations, President He! I hope you’ll remember me when you get super successful!”

“After all, my younger brother, Wu Yihua, works for the Health Department. He asked me to remind you of that.” Wu Yiqi said meaningfully.

He Zhentian looked at Wu Yiqi and was slightly displeased.

Wu Yiqi made it sound like he was begging. However, he was actually using his younger brother, Wu Yihua, to threaten him.

He Zhentian suppressed his anger and laughed. “Of course! Brother Wu and I will both revel in the Zhou family’s fall!”

“Yes, yes! Let’s enjoy it together!” Wu Yiqi echoed.

The two of them laughed together although they had their own ulterior motives.

In the CEO’s office of Zhou Catering Group…

Three figures appeared.

It was none other than He Zhentian, Wu Yi Qi, and Liu Xuan.

Zhou Wanqiu and Zhou Pingjiang looked at the three of them coldly.

The company had just survived the crisis, and Zhou Rongchang had gone home.

Zhou Pingjiang stayed behind to help Zhou Wanqiu deal with the company matters.

They were getting busy when He Zhentian and the other two suddenly arrived.

“He Zhentian, Wu Yiqi, what are you doing here?” Zhou Pingjiang said coldly.

He Zhentian ignored Zhou Pingjiang and turned to Liu Xuan. “Liu Xuan, go to the door and guard it. Don’t let anyone interrupt this conversation.”

Liu Xuan turned around and left.

Zhou Pingjiang and Zhou Wanqiu’s faces turned cold.

How dare Wu Yiqi behave so arrogantly here?

Zhou Pingjiang stared at He Zhentian and said in a deep voice, “He Zhentian, do you know where we are?”

Before He Zhentian could answer, Wu Yiqi spoke first, “Zhou Pingjiang, be careful of how you speak to President He. This will determine the price of your company’s projects later!”

Zhou Wanqiu was stunned. “The price of the company’s projects? What do you mean?”

“Hehe. I’m not sure. CEO Zhou, you’re a really good actress. You’re still playing dumb!” He Zhentian sneered.

Zhou Wanqiu and Zhou Pingjiang were dumbfounded.

Wu Yiqi smiled proudly and spoke.

“Zhou Pingjiang, my brother has already told me that your company has been shut down by the Health Department! 1 bet that many shareholders want to withdraw their shares. Isn’t that right? Hahahaha!”

Zhou Pingjiang and his daughter looked at each other. They finally understood.

So, these two were taking advantage of the situation.

It seemed that while Li Wandao was investigating Tan Saicheng and Wu Yihua, he forbade them from communicating with outside parties.

Therefore, they had not had the chance to spread the news.

Zhou Pingjiang and Zhou Wanqiu smiled when they realized this..
