"So what if they came? Yuan Zhan Capital, in the end, is just a company that made its name relying on news from Nan Province. Rumor has it it was founded by Wang Xiulan and Mu Ye. Perhaps this is just a distraction by the two families behind the scenes."
"That's not right. If Yuan Zhan Capital were truly the Wang and Mu families, why wouldn't they stand up? Something is wrong here, very wrong."
A long table, with a flowing stream of water in the middle, and small, stunted fish, bathed in the warm glow of LED lights, was quite beautiful.
On both sides, businessmen in suits and ties, all important figures, were seated, with secretaries standing behind each of them.
On the table, fruit platters and snacks were arranged with care.
The head of the table was empty, everyone waiting for the main guests of the evening.
"A single Yuan Zhan Capital has forced our alliance and made the banks run out of funds. It's too humiliating; we haven't felt this humiliated in so many years. We must make them pay!"
This was Liu Guang, the CEO of Giant Group.
Manager Hua of Hill City Chain Hotel Co., Ltd. said coldly, "Well said. Yuan Zhan Capital is not yet qualified to be a true capital company. Do they really think having Wang Xiulan and Mu Ye can turn things upside down? It's ridiculous."
Su, the CEO of Shu Qin Group, said indifferently, "My loan is the largest, a full 1.5 billion. The daily interest alone is hundreds of thousands. They must at least cover this money, and not only that, but they must also compensate me 500 million, otherwise, this matter will not end so easily."
Their objectives were clear: either Yuan Zhan Capital ceded some benefits and allowed them to participate, or Yuan Zhan Capital would disappear.
Of course, if they chose the latter, they wouldn't have an easy time either. It wouldn't break their bones, but at least they would have to pay a considerable price.
"I've invited the young master of the Ye family, Ye Jian. With him here, I don't believe those two, Wang Xiulan and Mu Ye, would dare to offend the Ye family by opposing us."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at a young woman in the corner.
"Ye Mengxin!"
Their eyes gleamed with anticipation.
Did her presence at such an event signify Ye Lin?
She was Ye Lin's personal secretary, and her appearance here likely meant she had some connection with Ye Lin.
"Pretend I'm not here."
Ye Mengxin bit the straw of her milk tea, not even lifting her eyelids.
At this time, she should have been in bed watching dramas. However, Ye Lin had asked her to come and see how far this symposium would go.
The people around understood and grasped her meaning. A few people blocked her line of sight, and then they nodded with satisfaction, put on their Bluetooth headsets, and started watching dramas.
"Mr. Ye, please."
Just then, a voice suddenly came. Wang Xiulan and Mu Ye spoke simultaneously, the doors opened, and Ye Longlin walked in slowly with his hands behind his back, his aura spreading out.
"Mr. Ye."
"Mr. Ye."
"Mr. Ye."
Seeing Ye Longlin enter, everyone quickly stood up and greeted him respectfully, with smiles on their faces.
They knew Ye Longlin was a member of the Green Army Council. Although it was the lowest level of council membership, in their perception, the Green Army Council was already very powerful, at least standing at the pinnacle of the capital.
Ye Longlin nodded, "You may continue."
As if he were just there to watch a play.
Fang Cunxin, who followed Ye Longlin closely, looked at the situation and felt helpless.
She was still young and hadn't experienced such things.
"Don't worry, the boss is here for everything," Yuan Gang's kind voice echoed in her ears.
Fang Cunxin looked up at Yuan Gang. Yuan Gang grinned, revealing a scar on his face that looked somewhat terrifying. She instinctively took two steps back, bumping into Xuan Niao.
Fang Cunxin clutched the corner of her clothes and said softly, "I... I'm sorry."
Xuan Niao chuckled, "Little one, since you are the boss's disciple, there's no need to say sorry, to anyone!"
These words represented their dominance, as well as their arrogance and fearlessness. For them, no one could make them bow their heads!
And this was indeed the case.
Fang Cunxin didn't understand the meaning of this statement, merely replying meekly, "I... I understand."
Xuan Niao was helpless. She knew that such an attitude was hard to change, so she didn't say much, only smiled with narrowed eyes and stroked Fang Cunxin's head.
Meanwhile, Mu Hanqi and Lin Tianai stood behind Wang Xiulan and Mu Ye after entering.
"I'm actually very curious, what right do you have to threaten Yuan Zhan Capital, by blocking funds and construction companies?"
Mu Ye scanned the crowd and chuckled, wondering where they got their confidence.
These things were all very simple for them.
"We merely want to have a dialogue with Yuan Zhan Capital on an equal footing," said Giant Group's Liu Guang with a smile, like a smiling tiger, his smile making people's hearts tremble.
Wang Xiulan scoffed, "Do you know who the CEO of Yuan Zhan Capital is? Even Mu Ye and I only own thirty percent of the shares. What are you all? Do you really think you're fearless just because your status is high?"
Mu Ye smiled, "Some people are born to be above everything. Even though many oppose them, they can still be invincible in the world."
The two men were clearly flattering Ye Longlin.
They were both from collateral branches, mere offshoots. They only had the chance to return to the capital and see the main family during the ancestral worship ceremony held every three years.
But they also knew that this was merely a means for the main family to intimidate others.
Now that they could join Ye Longlin's faction, they were naturally happy.
He represented a powerful faction!
Liu Guang scoffed, "In the end, you two are just dogs under someone else's command. As the heads of the four top conglomerates, you've become someone's dogs. Wang Xiulan, Mu Ye, aren't you ashamed?"
A cold glint flashed in Mu Hanqi's eyes, "You sit at the lower seat."
The implication was that he was worse than a dog.
Liu Guang, upon hearing this, immediately slammed the table and stood up, "The old dog hasn't even spoken, and the little dog is speaking. Mu Ye, control your mongrel!"
A cold glint flashed in Mu Ye's eyes, but his face remained smiling. He extended a hand and asked with a smile, "Do you see what this is?"
Liu Guang was immediately confused, wondering why he was suddenly asked a question. Wasn't it just a hand?
"If you don't want it, I can cut off your dog's paw."
"Slap!"
Mu Ye suddenly slapped him across the face. The crisp sound echoed, causing everyone to freeze.
No one expected Mu Ye to suddenly slap him.
"Mr. Ye is a member of my Great Xia Green Army Council. Insulting a council member is equivalent to insulting the Green Army Council, and insulting the Green Army Council is equivalent to insulting Great Xia. What right do you, Liu Guang, have to insult Great Xia? I will announce this matter, and you can wait for bankruptcy!"
Mu Ye looked at him coldly. This statement was equivalent to admitting that he had already pledged allegiance to Ye Longlin, and at the same time, it revealed Ye Longlin's identity.
"Are you the CEO of Yuan Zhan Capital??"
