Deputy Director Chen swallowed his saliva and sighed, "Indeed, Lin Ruoxi doesn't seem to have a strong background at the moment. But Young Master Meng, think about it. Yu Lei International is such a big piece of cake. Wouldn't the other big companies want to take a bite or two? No matter how powerful Lin Ruoxi is, she's just a business-minded woman. Her life can't be so smooth all the time, right?
At the end of the day, it's not that they're afraid of Lin Ruoxi, it's that Lin Ruoxi's husband, Yang Cheng, has been protecting her in the dark. He's the young master of the Yang Family in Yan Jin! "
"What?!" Meng Zhexin thought he had misheard. His phone shook and he almost crashed the car into the fence. "The Yang Family in Yan Jin? You're saying … the guy named Yang Chen is Yang Chen from the Yang clan, one of the four major clans in Beijing? "
"That's right! With her backing, more than half of the Jiang Nan military are willing to work for Lin Ruoxi. Who would want to mess with that woman? "Director Chen smiled wryly.
Meng Zhexin's face paled. He had heard of the four major families, but he had never interacted with them before. Secondly, he didn't pay much attention to them. He came to Zhong Hai to gain some experience, and he didn't plan to stay in Zhong Hai for long. Plus, he was an educator, so he didn't care about those entrepreneurs.
Although the four families in Yan Jin were known by all the rich families in China, China was a vast country after all, and there were local tyrants everywhere. The deterrence of the four families wouldn't really make all the rich families fear them.
Maybe families like the Yang Family, who were closely related to the military, could use their relationship with the military to intimidate others. The Ning Family, on the other hand, had a certain amount of influence with their network of local officials.
As for families like the Li family and the Tang family, although they were powerful, many of their power and financial resources were shameful. They wouldn't be able to hurt the "feudal lords" too much. If they really went out of the Yan Jing area, it was uncertain who was stronger and who was weaker.
In addition, for the sake of their image, most of the time, the four great clans would do anything big in secret. The outside world wouldn't know, so it didn't seem like much.
In recent years, the event that shocked all the noble families the most was perhaps the rumor that the young master of the Yang Family brutally slaughtered the Liang family in the military district of Guang Province.
Although this matter was strictly controlled by the military, and the common people had different opinions, it was true that the Liang family was exterminated!
It was also this time that many big families had a new understanding of the four traditional wealthiest families in Yan Jin. Whether or not there was any overstatement, at least the strength of the Yang Family was not to be underestimated!
The arrogant, domineering, and ridiculously powerful young master of the Yang Family also made many people admire and fear him.
These things were a bit far away from the Meng family. After all, they were separated by one or two provinces. For Meng Zhexin, the second young master of the Meng family, it didn't matter at all!
Therefore, Meng Zhexin didn't expect that Yang Cheng, who looked like a random passer-by on the street, was actually the legendary young master of the Yang Family who was like a "homicidal maniac"!
Meng Zhexin broke out in cold sweat when he thought about how he had gone against Yang Chen. He was a little scared.
"Second young master Meng, let's just pretend that nothing happened. If we really provoke the lion that is lying down and resting, it will not be worth it. Even if Meng Laoye personally comes forward, he may not be able to stop the madman of Yang Family." Deputy Director Chen advised. "That's right.
Meng Zhexin came back to his senses and said unhappily, "Nonsense, no matter how powerful the Yang Family is, why would we be afraid of them? This is not the world of the Yang Family, it's the central government's! Even if the Yang Family wants to make a move against us, will the central government agree?
There's still Premier Ning who has to manage the overall situation. Doesn't Premier Ning have a chief above him? How could the chief take the risk of Hua Xia causing chaos in the Central Plains and let the Yang Family fight against us? "
"Hehe … Second Young Master Meng's analysis is reasonable. After all, the Yang Family only has a high prestige in the military. Since Yang Pojun resigned as the commander of the Jiangnan Military Region and the second young master seemed to have died in battle, there aren't many troops under the control of the Yang Family. Your Meng family naturally won't be afraid of them," Deputy Director Chen immediately flattered.
Meng Zhexin felt a lot more comfortable after listening to this, but he wasn't stupid. He knew that this matter must end here, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to bear the consequences in the family. There was no reason for him to provoke the Yang Family for a woman.
"Uncle Chen, pretend that I didn't mention this matter, my father …"
"Hehe, understood," Deputy Director Chen laughed in a low voice, "Not a single word will fall into the director's ears …"
Meng Zhexin smiled in satisfaction, said that he would treat him to a meal next time and hung up the phone.
He was still thinking if he should find a chance to reconcile with Li Jingjing and send some gifts to the Li Family so that Old Li and his wife could also put in a good word for him in front of Yang Cheng. Even if they couldn't become friends, they shouldn't become potential enemies.
After knowing that Yang Cheng was a member of the Yang Family, Meng Zhexin suddenly understood why Lin Ruoxi didn't care. Wasn't she just the chairman of Yu Lei International? After marrying the young master of the Yang Family, how could she dare to care if he had a concubine or not?
…
Yanjing, Yang Family Courtyard.
Almost for the entire day, there were all kinds of officials and family representatives visiting Yang Gongming. This made the Yang Clan extremely busy both inside and outside.
It was only until the evening that it became quiet. He thought that no one would come to visit at this time, but unexpectedly, a white Audi slowly arrived, and Abbess Yun Miao, who was wearing a nun's robe, alighted. It was obvious that she had just finished some work at the Yellow Flame Iron Brigade.
Yun Miao's face didn't show any expression. She was as cold as usual, and without waiting for the servants to report, she walked to the back hall naturally.
The people of the Yang Family knew that Yun Miao was a member of the Lin Family and had a special relationship with Lin Ruoxi, so they didn't dare to neglect her. Yang Gongming, Yang Pojun, and Guo Xuehua came out to meet them too.
The servants served tea that could warm one's body and left respectfully, leaving an environment for the masters to chat privately.
Yun Miao only bowed to Yang Gongming. She didn't really care about the others. Even though the old nun was old, she still maintained her beauty and high spirits.
"Madam Lin, you're here so late at night. Are you planning to spend New Year's Eve with us?" Yang Gongming asked with a smile.
Yun Miao sighed when she thought about the withered Lin Family. She shook her head and said, "Even though my husband is no longer here, the Lin Family is still here. I'll go back later."
"Oh, what's the matter then?"
Yun Miao sighed and looked around. "Is Yang Cheng not here?"
"He should be back soon. He went out with his wife and daughter to buy some stuff. He's been gone for half a day," Yang Gongming said.
Yun Miao frowned. "It's best if he's here. After all, it's about my granddaughter, Lin Hui, and Yang Cheng. I'm an impatient person, and I want to figure out some things first. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease during the New Year."
"About Hui Lin and Yang Cheng?"
Guo Xuehua's interest was piqued. She asked suspiciously, "Madam Lin, could it be … that Hui Lin and my son …"
It was no wonder that Guo Xuehua would think that way, because this kind of thing had happened many times.
The rest of the Yang Family came to their senses. Yang Gongming had a strange look on his face. After all, he knew that Lin Ruoxi treated Hui Lin like a younger sister. Yang Pojun and the rest were helpless.
Yun Miao was rather annoyed. "You guys might not know this but Hui 'er told me personally that she and Yang Chen had confessed their feelings for each other during the days when he went missing and they ended up together.
I know that Hui Er isn't a casual child. She's never been so open about her feelings. Once she makes up her mind, I won't be able to stop her.
Fortunately, although Yang Cheng is evil, he's capable. I've never seen him let his women suffer losses. Moreover, he has a close relationship with my senior and the Shu Mountain Faction. I'm willing to let Hui Er and him … "
The rest of the Yang Family were surprised. They didn't expect Yun Miao to agree so easily.
However, this wasn't good news. They knew that Yang Cheng and Lin Ruoxi's relationship was strained in the morning. If Lin Ruoxi found out that Hui Lin and Yang Cheng had pledged to marry each other, they didn't know what would happen!
Everyone couldn't help but break out in cold sweat.
However, Yang Gongming thought deeper. He asked, "Madam Lin, you must have something to say here. That's why you came in such a hurry, right?"
