Chapter 563: Factions!
Cheng Wenru shook her head. She wasnt sure how he got self-sufficient, but it didnt change her decision.
The top four households in Beijing had met with problems recently.
Everyone knew that there was a huge power that wanted to reshuffle and outdo the top four households. The Qin family in the past was a classic example.
In fact, a lot of people in Beijing were shaken by the passing of the two Old Masters.
Now, there was another groundbreaking news: the medical apparatus, as well as medication needed in hospitals under the Cheng family, were being held in another country. With that, the stock prices for the Cheng family business plummeted.
It went down for two days in a row.
The news shocked the city.
Who would have expected such a thing to happen the moment Old Master Cheng passed on?
Besides the Xu family, Qin family, Jiang family, and Lu family supporting the Cheng family, the rest were just enjoying the show
There were rumors that the top four families wouldnt be able to retain their places. With that, many people holding onto those stocks sold them quickly, for fear that they became worthless shortly.
The Cheng family wasnt the least bit worried, however, which came as a surprise to some people. The Second Hall Master of the Cheng family even flew to Continent M for business; it didnt seem as if the Cheng family was in trouble at all
People were beginning to take sides in Beijing.
In the Lu familys house.
Because of Tang Juns relationship with Cheng Juan, Lu Zhaoying had a huge influence on the Lu family.
The Lu family was calling for an emergency meeting as well.
News regarding the Cheng family was no longer a secret. Everyone knew that a power that could hold the Cheng familys goods overseas was surely too strong for a family like the Lus to deal with.
The Lu family decided to protect themselves first.
Lu Zhaoying opened the door and entered, taking the first empty seat he saw. As the next heir of the Lu family, my stance is very straightforward. The Lu family will choose to support the Cheng family at any point in time. Anyone who isnt willing can start another business outside the Lu family.
Are you going to drag the entire Lu family down with you? Someone stood up and asked sternly the moment Lu Zhaoying said that.
Lu Zhaoying turned to the man who had just spoken. Third Uncle, if you disagree, you can back out.
The meeting room went quiet.
A moment later, Third Uncle Lu stood up. Ill back out alright! Ill see how long more you can keep the Lu family going!
He slammed the door and left.
After hed left, Lu Zhaoying turned to look at the rest of the people in the meeting room. The ear stud in his left ear glinted as he asked, Anyone else wants to back out?
A few other people took their leave.
Lu Zhaoying had been texting Qin Ran the whole time, asking if she was doing alright in the Cheng family.
Cheng Wenru kept the news quiet. Lu Zhaoying didnt know what was going on in the Cheng family.
But hed chosen the side to take.
This could be happening in the Jiang family and other families at this point as well.
The majority might be choosing not to join this camp.
The Nie family waited for two days, but the Cheng family did not come to beg them.
The Nie familys successor had been so confident before, but he was starting to get flustered now, especially at the thought of Cheng Juans reaction that day. He asked Chairman Nie, Chairman Nie, could something have gone wrong? I got someone to keep an eye on the Cheng family, and nothing seems amiss. Theyre going ahead with the news conference today. According to the Cheng family, the goods have already arrived. The Cheng family is one of the largest households, after all. M-maybe we should stop insisting that Third Young Master Cheng come over to check on the Old Master.
The successor was getting worried now. If it wasnt for Ming Hai, they wouldnt even have had the chance to meet Cheng Wenru.
The Cheng familys attitude was completely out of their expectations
Chairman Nie shook his head as he held a teacup.
He smiled. Cheng Wenru is always like that. Shes just feigning calmness, and thats the only representative we see from the Cheng family. Mr. Ming is personally involved in this, it cant be wrong. Just wait and see how the Cheng family will deal with things today. Its about time someone took their place.
The goods had arrived? Were they daydreaming?
Chairman Nie reached for the remote control.
The television was turned on at Cheng Wenrus live stream.
Cheng Wenru didnt appear down-and-out as Chairman Nie had expected.
On the contrary, she seemed rather energized.
She was sitting upright, and her voice was crystal clear. The newly-developed medicine has been distributed to the different hospitals in the provinces and cities. They will
Bam
Chairman Nies teacup landed on the floor.
His smile stiffened.
C-Chairman Nie? The Cheng family The Nie familys successor felt a chill down his spine as he looked at his expression.
Chairman Nie had been so confident just a moment ago, but hed lost it.
He turned pale as he fell back in his seat in disbelief. How could this have happened? T-Thats Mr. Ming and Continent F!
If the Cheng family was this powerful, how could they not have made a successful entrance in Continent M?!
The Nie familys successor already felt something was wrong earlier on. The news now was just confirming his doubts.
He grabbed his hair. Chairman Nie, Id already said that we shouldnt be too harsh on the Cheng family. We cant force it on Third Young Master Cheng, as he might not be that simple. What do we do now? How are we going to clean this up?
After this news conference, the Nie family was going down in Beijing.
If Ming Hai was going to look out for the Nie family, they might still be alright. But if he chose to wash his hands off them, then theyd be gone for good
It wasnt just the Nie family who was caught by surprise, many others were as well. But none of them managed to find out anything about the situation.
At the villa.
Cheng Wenru came over right after the news conference.
She and Cheng Raohan had put aside their differences temporarily and had been working on the Cheng family matters together in these couple of days.
After working so hard on this matter, she finally had some time to breathe.
Ran Ran. Cheng Wenru looked at Qin Ran and put her teacup down when she recalled something. Is it time for the handover ceremony already on the Xu familys side?
Qin Ran nodded. Tomorrow.
