Chapter 475

475 Fight Against Them

Upon seeing Chu Cichen, the Queen was slightly stunned. She felt a sense of familiarity but wasunable to recall where she had seen him before.

She furrowed her brows and turned her attention to Shen Ruojing, expressing her satisfaction with anod. “Miss Shen is impressive indeed.”

Shen Ruojing asked, “Now that you have seen me, can we continue our discussion?”

“There’s nothing more to discuss.” The Queen stood up. It seemed that she made a trip here speciallyto merely see someone.

But in the next moment, she surprised everyone by turning to Shen Yuansong and saying, “You cancancel the agreement if you want, but half of the Shen Family’s assets may not be enough.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuansong’s face then turned cold and he retorted, “Madam, the worth of whatmy family has received from you is far from half of our assets.”

“But you have violated the contract, so you must pay the compensation. I want two-thirds of yourfamily’s assets. If you agree, then the agreement will be void from this moment on. But of course…”

The Queen looked at Shen Ruojing and said, “I really like your granddaughter. You can think about itagain.”

After that, she left confidently, and her guards cleared the way in front and behind her. She had spentonly ten minutes in the Shen Manor in total.

After the Queen’s entourage left, Shen Ruojing looked at Shen Yuansong and asked, “Grandfather…”

Shen Yuansong’s gaze sank, but he answered confidently, “Give it to her. Even if our family only hasone-third of our current assets in the future, we can still be one of the four great families!”

They would go from being the first to the last, but he believed that with Shen Ruojing and ShenTianye’s leadership, the Shen Family would regain their first position in the future.

Shen Ruojing felt that it was unfair. “It’s normal to compensate for a breach of contract, but herdemands are too harsh.”

Shen Yuansong sighed. “There’s nothing we can do. She is from Country A’s royal family andmonopolizes the economic trend. It’s better to negotiate with her.”

At this moment, Shen Ruojing felt a sense of helplessness when she asked, “Grandfather, I asked youearlier if there was any financial power that could break their monopoly. You said there was… Whowere you talking about?”

Shen Yuansong began to speak. “A few years ago, a corporation named ‘Loong’ suddenly emergedoverseas. It was comprised of the world’s top talents, and its founder was said to be a rich second-generation son who had always been a part of the ‘high IQ’ club. He led seven people to establish theirnew business empire, challenging the positions of the three ancient families. The three families thenextended an olive branch, but he refused to accept their terms. So, he was eventually jointlysuppressed by the three ancient families…”

“And then?” Shen Ruojing’s heart raced as she listened.

“Loong lost, but as far as I know, they have been steadily developing despite the pressure from thethree ancient families.” Shen Yuansong sighed.

Chu Cichen’s eyes flickered as he suddenly asked, “Grandfather, do you think the Loong Corporationcan break their monopoly?”

Shen Yuansong stroked his beard and his eyes were full of anticipation. “Yes. When the leader ofLoong lost before, he was only 20 years old and full of youthful arrogance. In this case, he was bulliedby a group of old men. I believe that after hiding his talents for a while, he will eventually rise again!”

After speaking, he smiled. “But I admire his courage. Loong means Eastern Dragon, and it is obviousthat their corporation was founded by a Chinese. Among the three ancient families that control theeconomy, there are no Chinese. So, he had no idea about being low-key and restrained, and that waswhat led to his failure last time. But China is becoming increasingly strong today, and it is time for arepresentative figure to emerge! I also hope that this Eastern Dragon can soar in the sky!”

Chu Cichen listened to this and lowered his eyes, slowly saying, “He will.”

The grandfather looked at him and said with emphasis, “Cichen, I know you are also a businessgenius. You returned to the country for only a few days and reorganized the Chu Corporation withthunderous means. But there are many talented people in this world, and I don’t expect you to be sopowerful. I just hope you can love your country like the founder of Loong. You must remember thatwithout the country’s strength, there would be no place for us today!”

Chu Cichen lowered his head. His attitude was heartfelt and he had a hint of helplessness on his face.“Yes, I will always remember your words.”

Shen Yuansong was finally satisfied.

After sending Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen back to their room, Shen Yuansong looked at the butlerand asked, “Was the front gate demolished?”

The butler was very helpless. “Yes, and when the group of people came in, they also trampled on manyflowers and plants.”

The butler asked in confusion, “What was the reason for that person to cause this disturbance?”

Shen Yuansong sighed. “To suppress our arrogance! Wait and see, by tomorrow, the news of the ShenFamily offending them will spread throughout the four great families. The news of the Shen Familypreparing to pay two-thirds of our assets will also spread… Our family most probably will no longer bethe same as before.”

The four great families were already at odds with each other.

However, the Shen Family was firmly in the first place.

But starting tomorrow, the Bai, Rong, and Xu families might have some ideas about this first place.

The Queen caused such a disturbance just to make him understand…

In her eyes, the Shen Family was not even worth mentioning. She came if she wanted to, left if shewanted to, and could take away two-thirds of the Shen Family’s assets easily. It was just a matter ofwords…

It was a quiet night.

The next day, when Shen Ruojing woke up, the grand martial uncle of the Valor Gate called her. “JuniorSister, I have sent the people you wanted over, and I also reminded them not to say that they are fromValor Gate to outsiders.”

Shen Ruojing stretched and said lazily, “Thank you, Senior Brother.”

“Why thank me? We are all one family. By the way, our fighting competition is almost over. Hurry upand replace Champion Chen!”

Shen Ruojing sighed. “I know.”

Yesterday, the Queen’s direct intrusion made her realize that the security strength of the Shen Familywas indeed too weak. Hence, she called her sect overnight, and the old man of Valor Gate immediatelysent some disciples over when he heard that she had been bullied.

When Shen Ruojing got downstairs after waking up, she saw the butler bringing several disciples ofValor Gate into the living room. “Miss, they said they came to see you.”

Shen Ruojing nodded. “Uncle Liu, from now on, the security of the house will be entrusted to them.”

The butler was about to agree when a strange voice suddenly came from the side. “Hey, are you tryingto insert your people into the security of the house as soon as you join the Shen Family? These peoplelook so skinny and weak. They might fall down with just a push. What benefit did they give you for youto allow them to manage the security of the house? Also, do you know that the Shen Family hiresprofessional guards? I don’t know where you got these people from. Shen Ruojing, you are toooverconfident, aren’t you?!”
