"So I came back."
Christian looked out of the window. "I'm just his adopted son. I can do whatever you can't."
"What difference does it make? Christian? "
Marguerite didn't think much of it. "He knows that you're on our side. Any hostile action you take against André now could lead to unpredictable consequences. We still have to think of something else, Christian. You did a good job with Jennifer before. Why don't you continue? "
"That woman might be a pig, but she's not brainless."
Christian rubbed his eyebrows. "I can't force her to do anything to André now. Ever since the Elders raised her succession ranking and Damon supported several of her proposals at the board meeting, Jennifer has been consciously cutting ties with me. That bastard André is very powerful now. She won't make her brother her enemy just because of a promise from me. "
"Not necessarily. Jennifer's current financial situation is very tight. It could collapse at any time."
Margaret laughed. "There's no harm in giving it a try, right? Christian, all you have to do is wait patiently for her to beg you. "
"That's it?"
"Of course not. Do you know that Jennifer asked the bank to give her brother a loan?"
"I know. That's why I think this woman is so stupid."
Christian's expression was cold. "I've asked the professionals from a commercial research company to inspect the Xuri Company's stores in detail. They all agreed that the stores have great potential for profit. With sufficient funds, Xuri Company can establish their first-mover advantage and chain network in the shortest time possible. "
"Don't be so harsh, Christian. Jennifer was right. That bastard's business was booming. Sooner or later, he would touch someone else's cake. She just didn't expect André's talent in combat and how much Dwight Payton valued him. This allowed her brother to build up a powerful force in an extremely short period of time, enough to suppress the situation. So, Chris, we need to add another fire under his feet. If it's just the words of the Dragon Witch Cult, it's not enough — "
Margaret paused. "You should have heard of the Sacred Blood Hunting Group and the Cartier Hunting Group, right?"
"An ally of Li Chunchu in Anatolia."
Christian said expressionlessly, "Li Chunchu once formed a very powerful joint ship group and was able to obtain a sizable commercial share in the Anatolian mainland. However, I heard that after Li Chunchu's death, the alliance has changed leaders, and the five ten thousand-ton armed freighters under Li Chunchu were also divided. "
"Your news is outdated, Chris. The latest news is that this joint fleet has fallen into internal strife and has fallen apart. Recently, due to the war on the Anatolian continent, the logistics system of the Sacred Blood Hunters and the Cartier Hunters had suffered a heavy blow. So they thought of our nephew and hoped that he could inherit his father's business. "
"Wow, that sounds ridiculous, Marguerite. These are the two top hunting groups, and their strength is comparable to a small country with a population of five to six million. Are you sure they want to find our nephew as a supplier? I want to say that even with Li Chunchu's affection as the premise, it's still very hard to believe. "
"It's very ridiculous, but if you always pay attention to the situation on the Anatolian mainland, you will know that these mercenary groups are already in a desperate state. And André has already shown his strength, hasn't he? There aren't many people who can kill Antonio and defeat the Dragon Witch Cult. "
Margaret's voice was cold. "Chris, we just need to watch from now on. If possible, we might as well help him go further on the path of being an arms supplier."
This time, Christian fell into silence. After a long time, he spoke again, "Margaret, are you sure you aren't nurturing a tiger that will invite disaster? You know, if André has enough strength, then the elders of the family definitely won't mind him entering the Wildenstein group. Even that ancestor of ours would be happy to see a stronger descendant inherit the family. It doesn't have to be you guys. I know the three of you are very unhappy because of the management rights of the company, but my sister, please don't forget why our father used all kinds of methods to ensure that bastard's inheritance rights. Andre Lee Wildenstein is your most dangerous enemy. "
"Of course!"
Margaret's voice didn't sound very perfunctory. "But we can't do it ourselves, can we? So we have to let him face those enemies that are beyond his capabilities. And whether it's his electrical chain stores, the Dragon Witch Cult, or the arms dealers, they are all enough to drag him into the abyss. Dwight Payton is very powerful, so powerful that he can even help that bastard and prevent the resurrection of the Calamity Dragoness. But in the business world of America, in the outer seas of the Anatolian mainland, there are many enemies that he can't deal with and doesn't want to offend. Sooner or later, there will be a day when he can't handle it. "
…
At half past five in the afternoon, Li Mochen finished his class on time. Then, he quickly walked out of the classroom amidst the resentful complaints of the students.
But when he changed his clothes and went to the underground carpark, he saw Lena Edrick at a corner not far from the elevator.
"Lena, where's your mistress?"
Li Mochen stopped and looked at her strangely. "What are you doing here?"
Since he had met her, he thought that he might as well go back together. They were both staying in the Unicorn Apartments anyway.
Lena didn't say anything. She put her index finger to her lips and signaled for Li Mochen to be quiet. Then, she pointed to the corridor beside them.
At this moment, Li Mochen also heard Belinda Harris's voice. Her voice was hurried and full of anxiety. "Angela, listen to me! Don't go near that André, okay? It's very dangerous. "
"But why?"
"I'm worried that you'll be charmed by him. That guy is really pretty, but Angela, you can't just look at his appearance. I can tell just by looking at him that he's a bad person, a bad person! "
Belinda tried to persuade Angela with her incoherent words. "Angie, you're still young. You're easily deceived."
"But Ammo is a very good person. It's not like what you're saying at all."
Angela's voice and tone were full of innocence. "You know, Belinda, I feel that you're saying this on purpose. You want me to give up, so that you can have Ammo all to yourself."
"Me? All to myself?"
Belinda was both annoyed and amused. "Angie, I'm not interested in him! Even if all the men in this world died, I wouldn't like him. Also, Angie, you're too naive. How long have you known him for? How can you know that he's a good person? Men are always two-faced in front of the woman they like. You need a certain amount of time to understand his true nature. "
"Is that so? But I'm very doubtful of your words. "
Angela seemed to be hesitant. After a while, she spoke again. "How about this, Belinda. Didn't you confess to me before and say that you like me very much? Now, if you still love me, then kiss me. If you don't mind, then I'll believe you. "
"Kiss? Re-really? "
Belinda seemed to be so surprised that she couldn't even finish her sentence.
But a mere ten seconds later, a scream rang out in the corridor. Belinda Harris ran out as if her butt was on fire. When she saw Li Mochen looking at her with a confused expression, she became even more ashamed and angry. Tears welled up in her eyes as she ran in the other direction.
"Did you see that, Lina? According to the eastern language, this is called 'the river flows east for thirty years, then west for thirty years' — "
When Angela walked out of the corridor with her hands on her hips, her face was also red.
