I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack

Chapter 274 - 274 Investigated!

274 Investigated!

Yun Yiheng was stunned!

In Ford City and the entertainment industry, the Yun Family could be considered the top influential family.

However, they truly couldn’t be compared to the four influential families of the capital!

The four influential families in the capital were like chaebols*!

They controlled the national economic trend!

Moreover, the four families were very united. Although they competed against each other, they also acknowledged each other. They only didn’t approve of families outside their sphere.

Although Ford City was only an hour’s drive away from the capital, the development of Ford City wasn’t very good. Their development couldn’t even compare to Sea City, so the Yun Family wasn’t as strong as the Chu Family. During these years, they always failed to enter the social circle of those in the capital.

If not, Shen Wanxian wouldn’t have chosen to marry someone from the Wen Family back then.

But what was this now?

Firstly, it was Old Master Bai who visited his family, and Bai Xiaojiu was then engaged to his big sister Yun Wei. Now, Old Master Shen wanted to visit them?

This was one of the family leaders of the four great families!

So, Yun Yiheng dumbly replied, “Naturally you can.”

After Shen Yuansong heard this, he suddenly fell silent again. He then spoke, “Forget it, I came here in a hurry this time and have to return to the capital a short while later.”

Shen Yuansong was out for business and had just reached Ford City via plane today. After attending the Music Festival and choosing the person who could play the zither for him, he was preparing to return this very night.

Anyway, Yun Yiheng didn’t think too much and only felt that the question earlier was just a casual one. It would then be strange if a major character like him wanted to visit them.

In fact, Yun Yiheng even heaved a sigh of relief.

After Shen Yuansong finished saying this, he finally turned to leave.

Under the escort from the bodyguards, Shen Yuansong’s group left the Music Hall and entered a car. After that, five other black luxurious cars then drove off ahead, opening the path, while five other black luxurious cars followed behind the car Shen Yuansong was in.

The convoy of cars left Ford City Music Academy. However, they didn’t drive in the direction of the capital but turned a corner instead, coming to an inconspicuous-looking private restaurant.

At this moment, the private restaurant was already emptied and cleared of other people.

When Shen Yuansong strode in, he saw a tall figure seated on a sofa in the room.

The man was very young, but he exuded an aura of sharpness that no one could underestimate. He was none other than Chu Cichen.

Currently, he wasn’t as cautious and gentle as how he was with Shen Ruojing. His aura fully blasted out. Even when facing Shen Yuansong, his aura didn’t weaken in the slightest.

His deep phoenix eyes contained a mysterious quality that would cause one to feel respect and reverence for him in their hearts.

After seeing Shen Yuansong, Chu Cichen stood up. His erect body was like an unsheathed sharp blade, causing Shen Yuansong to subconsciously straighten his.

“Old Master Shen, I’ve long since heard of your esteemed name.” Chu Cichen stretched his hands out toward him.

Shen Yuansong shook his hand. “I didn’t expect Mr. Chu would be so young. Truly, your reputation doesn’t do you justice.”

The two of them politely conversed and sat on the sofa.

Shen Yuansong stared at Chu Cichen and was preparing to continue exchanging pleasantries. However, Chu Cichen directly went straight to the topic. “The Chu Family wants to enter the capital’s market. I wonder if Old Master Shen is willing to cooperate with me?”

The capital was fully controlled by the four families. It was fine if other small families wanted to fool around there. But if any of those families wanted to expand, they required permission from the four influential families.

Shen Yuansong had thought that Chu Cichen was looking for him because the latter wanted to give some concession and begged him to agree to something. So, he hadn’t expected Chu Cichen to talk about cooperating the moment they met.

Shen Yuansong frowned. “The Shen Family doesn’t need to cooperate with outsiders.”

However, Chu Cichen took out a business proposal and handed it to him. “Look at this proposal before you make a decision.”

Shen Yuansong took the proposal.

When he flipped the first page and after reading the contents on it, his pupils violently contracted!

Chu Cichen actually dared to think about doing this project!

Shen Yuansong subconsciously immersed himself in reading as he began flipping the pages.

Without realizing it, half an hour passed and he actually finished reading the proposal. Now, when he looked back at Chu Cichen again, the contempt in his eyes weakened and the feeling of shock grew.

He didn’t expect that this man actually had such ambitions and capabilities despite his young age!

Initially, when Chu Cichen looked for him, Shen Yuansong didn’t really care much. He only decided to meet Chu Cichen because it was convenient and on the way.

But after he fully finished reading the proposal, he no longer dared to underestimate this young man before him.

If they truly did things according to the proposal, they would be able to establish a business empire in the capital once again. It would even allow the Shen Family to rise to the top of the four great influential families!

This proposal could match the charm of that major character in the past!

He pursed his lips. The temptation was truly great.

His heart was moved.

Shen Yuansong then put the proposal down and looked at Chu Cichen. “I admit that I’m indeed attracted by the proposal. It isn’t impossible for the Shen Family to cooperate with the Chu Family. However, you have to agree to a condition of mine.”

Chu Cichen immediately spoke, “We can discuss the dividend ratio between our two companies later.”

“Not this.” Shen Yuansong stared at him fixedly. “Do you know the basis of the close connection between the four great influential families?”

Chu Cichen started and didn’t speak.

Shen Yuansong continued, “Marriage alliances. I’ve checked before. Mr. Chu is single and if you are willing to marry a granddaughter of mine, we can cooperate.”

Chu Cichen didn’t hesitate and said, “I reject.”

Hearing this, Shen Yuansong started slightly. He fell silent for a few moments before continuing, “Hmm, that paternal granddaughter of mine that’s of the correct age is indeed pampered and not suited for you. In that case, you can marry my maternal granddaughter.”

Chu Cichen still rejected it and spoke cleanly, “Sorry, I already have a fiancee.”

“Mr. Chu, do you understand the meaning of your words?”

“Very clearly.”

“…”

Shen Yuansong started. He didn’t expect Chu Cichen to refuse.

How many people dreamed of entering the capital and receiving the Shen Family’s protection, becoming a grandson-in-law of Shen Yuansong?

However, this man before him actually rejected him without hesitation?

Shen Yuansong stood up abruptly. “Since this is the case, there is no need for this cooperation.”

He would never permit a corporation that was beyond his control to emerge.

After saying this, Shen Yuansong left with no hesitation.

After he left, Lu Cheng entered from another room and pouted in the direction where Shen Yuansong left. “Bro Chen, we gave the four families some face, but they didn’t want it! If it was up to me, there’s basically no need for you to interact with stubborn old men like them. It isn’t a problem for us to fight the four families at the same time given the strength we have accumulated overseas!”

Chu Cichen calmly spoke, “This is called trying fair means before resorting to force.”

–

Shen Ruojing woke up early the next morning.

Just as she went out of her room, she ran into Yun Yiheng. His finger was still injured and he had to recuperate at home.

However, he started after seeing Shen Ruojing.

It was like he suddenly grew aware of something. He abruptly took a step back and closed his room door.

Shen Ruojing. “?”

She was confused. She then went down and did her morning exercise routine before heading back up. After that, she saw Yun Yiheng dressed in a shirt and trousers, respectfully sitting on the sofa on the second floor as he awkwardly greeted, “Good morning, cousin.”

“…” Shen Ruojing’s lips twitched.

So, the reason for his actions earlier was because he felt that his earlier appearance wasn’t tidy enough? This was why he went to change his clothes?

She also replied to the greeting before returning to her room to wash up. After that, she picked up Lu Hui’s call. “Boss, I’ve investigated the reason why Chu Cichen went to the Ford City Music Academy! It really has a connection with what happened in the past!”

Hearing this Shen Ruojing sat up straight. “Speak.”
