The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife

Chapter 648: The Chen Family's Past


Indeed, the Wang Family is one of the four major families in Yanjing, with strength and heritage that are difficult to shake on the surface of Yanjing. Netherworld Palace, though powerful and with numerous experts, is after all an external force and also the "key surveillance target" of the National Security Bureau, making revenge anything but easy.

Wang Qian played a good hand, at least she believed it was a very profitable deal. Not only could she gain the promised benefits after cooperation, but even if Ye Shikai sought revenge, he would not target her. Sadly, this time in the hospital, Boss Xing and his men did not succeed, but the attack at the wedding caused Su Qingyu to fall into a coma.

"Too frightened to seek revenge, it seems you understand this man named Ye Shikai very well." Wang Liang crossed his ten fingers, leaning his elbows on the table. This posture showed how much he cared about what Wang Qian was about to say, and that he took the matter very seriously.

Wang Qian had studied at a top business school in Europe and also had an extremely strong business talent, not inferior to Su Qingyu. Her remarkable ability at such a young age truly made her a leader among the elites of Yanjing. Coupled with her excellent background, everything she did seemed very smooth. However, precisely because of this, deep inside Wang Qian's heart there was some arrogance, and arrogant people always believe they have everything under control.

"I don't know him very well, but I understand the Underworld." Wang Qian spoke indifferently. She was aware of the existence of cultivators in Yanjing before, and while abroad, it was even easier for her to come into contact with information related to the Underworld, something even Wang Liang probably did not know.

"Qian'er, you're still too arrogant." Wang Liang sighed lightly, then his expression turned reproachful, "The whole machine cannot function if any one gear is damaged, and now you have offended an opponent you don't even understand clearly, which is an utter mistake."

"Father, do you really understand this person Ye Shikai?" Although her father was reprimanding her, Wang Qian still showed impatience.

"Do you know that he is the Netherworld King? Aren't you curious why he can stay in Yanjing and infiltrate Netherworld Palace's influence here?" Wang Liang said indifferently, "Do you think it's because he's Huaxia, so the National Security Bureau just lets him be?"

"What Father means is..."

"The National Security Bureau has already tacitly consented to his actions."

"But why would the National Security Bureau take such a risk to allow a foreign power to station themselves here? Aren't they afraid of nurturing a threat?" Wang Qian countered, "I have considered this before. Even if the National Security Bureau relaxed conditions for Netherworld Palace, they wouldn't worry about them acting recklessly, and they wouldn't open war with the Wang Family."

"Who is the person seeking cooperation with you?" Wang Liang said indifferently, a topic that appeared so abruptly that Wang Qian was at a loss for words.

"The Chen family." After a few seconds, Wang Qian reluctantly spat out these two words and Wang Liang's forehead crinkled involuntarily, a hint of strangeness flashing in his eyes.

"The Chen family hired Assassins to make the assassination attempt, and I had Elder Ma coordinate," Wang Qian continued.

"Do you know who Chen Yuxin is?" Wang Liang's tone suddenly became serious, as if talking about something very terrifying.

"The Family Head of the Chen family."

"You know what I'm asking. Aren't you willing to say it now?"

"Extremely cunning."

"You're right. To be able to helm a massive corporate empire at the age of only twenty-something requires more than just ability," Wang Liang nodded. He was fifty-five years old this year, and Chen Yuxin was just in her twenties. In terms of generational age, Chen Yuxin was far junior to Wang Liang; in other words, to put it bluntly, Chen Yuxin, despite her young age, gave Wang Liang, this old fox, a genuine feeling of pressure from within.

"I remember when she first took over the position of Family Head, almost everyone thought that the Chen family was headed downhill. At that time, I even joked that Yanjing would only have three major families." Wang Liang spoke lightly of things from three or four years ago, "But nobody expected that in just four years, the Chen family's businesses in Yanjing would double in expansion, and they were even more preeminent overseas, seizing the initiative. In the past few years, in almost all new industries, the Chen family's presence is to be seen."

"Chen Yuxin does have some capabilities indeed."

"The key point is, the previous old members of the Chen family ended up completely submissive to her." As Wang Liang said this, his expression became very somber.

"When she had just taken over, there were waves of opposition within the family, but later they were all strategically suppressed by her. Those who did not obey her were either stripped of power or framed with charges and sent to prison. She would even do this to her own relatives."

"But the most severe was still not just that." Wang Liang seemed to recall something very frightening as his face changed slightly, "The previous Family Head of the Chen family, that is, Chen Yuxin's father, had a younger brother named Chen Hong. At the time, since there was no son under the Chen family leader, only a daughter, Chen Yuxin, so within the family, there were not a few who supported Chen Hong, even Chen Yuxin's father supported him giving way to Chen Hong."

"At that time, I had some acquaintance with Chen Hong. He was a straightforward man, strong and resolute but lacking in tact." Wang Liang suddenly stopped here as if waiting for Wang Qian to speak.

"I know of Chen Hong, I saw him when I was little, but didn't their family get into a car accident later on and perish?" Wang Qian's expression became serious; she was no fool, and the accident back then was a bit too suspicious, with everyone doubting, yet they had no choice but to accept it as fact.

Even Wang Qian tried to convince herself that Chen Hong's death was truly an accident.

"Could it be that incident was really..."

"I had a confidant investigate this matter later on." Wang Liang said coldly, "In that car that fell into the ravine and exploded, there were obvious signs of binding on the burnt seat belts of the four bodies. My confidant concluded that these four individuals must have been strapped in their seats when they fell into the ravine."

"What." Wang Qian's face showed shock, "Are you saying, the death of Chen Hong's family, was man-made?"

"What do you think? If it was man-made, then who did it?" Wang Liang exhaled a long breath, after saying this he actually seemed to feel a sense of relief.

"Could it have been Chen Yuxin who did it?"

"Afterwards, when I wanted to investigate, I received an anonymous letter with some of my vulnerabilities on it. Because at that time I needed to stabilize the stock prices of the group, I didn't delve further into the matter," Wang Liang said with lingering fear, "Later on, that girl Chen Yuxin had already become the Family Head."
