C6 Large Investments

Plop!

Stunned beyond belief, Loong Wentian toppled right off his chair.

"Ten billion, and that's just pocket change?

Who on Earth was this guy?

What kind of formidable force have I just crossed?

"Mr. Mu, no—Master Mu! I was so wrong. Please, have mercy on me!"

Loong Wentian dropped to his knees, smacking his forehead on the floor in a desperate plea for clemency.

At this critical juncture,

Loong Wentian realized his job title was the least of his worries.

The real crux of the matter? Anyone who could casually drop ten billion could squash him like a bug, without a second thought.

"It's too little too late, I'm afraid."

Mu Chen said, cool as ice, taking his seat in Loong Wentian's former chair.

At this moment.

Just then, the office door swung open, and nearly a dozen people rushed in, lining up on either side of the room,

their breaths held as if their lives depended on it.

The reins of Global Investment had changed hands, and these executives knew to be on their best behavior.

"Old man Murong Feng certainly moves quickly," Mu Chen mused, glancing at the people around him,

all clearly orchestrated by Murong Feng.

"No need for pleasantries," Mu Chen said crisply.

"Launch a thorough investigation into Loong Wentian. I expect a full report that satisfies me in one week. No excuses."

Perched at the top, literally and figuratively, Mu Chen issued his command with an air of authority.

"Sir. Consider it done."

The team leader saluted, not hesitating for even a moment.

Loong Wentian felt as if he'd been electrocuted.

As the former General Manager, he'd run amok,

bending rules and cutting corners.

This looming investigation was practically a death sentence.

"Your name and tenure here?"

Turning his attention away from the crumbling Loong Wentian, Mu Chen addressed the elegant woman pouring him tea.

The elegant woman was the one who had initially ushered him into the office. A

"Sir, I'm Wang Xue, and I've been with the company for five years."

Her heart was racing, but she was grateful she hadn't offended the new boss.

"Excellent. Wang Xue, you're now the General Manager. As for the rest of you, your salaries will be doubled."

"But let me be crystal clear: anyone undermining the new General Manager can show themselves out!"

Mu Chen's voice blended warmth and steel, masterfully convincing everyone.

Appointing Wang Xue had two advantages: not only did he see potential in her, but she would also be an asset in future collaborations with Lin Yuyan.

Thank you, sir!"

Wang Xue's eyes glistened as she bowed deeply.

A graduate of a prestigious foreign university, her talents had been stifled at a front desk role for years, thanks to Loong Wentian.

Now, at last, her moment in the spotlight had arrived.

Mu Chen gave a subtle nod.

After the room emptied, leaving only him and Wang Xue, he leaned in.

"Listen up. It would be best to go head-to-head with Lin Yuyan on this Lin Family Group investment. And whatever you do, she mustn't know that I own Global Investment, understood?"

Mu Chen stressed the significance of the matter multiple times.

"Understood."

Wang Xue nodded earnestly.

Inside, she couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy towards Lin Yuyan.

How many lifetimes of good fortune must one have to land a husband like Mu Chen?

Moments later, Mu Chen stepped outside of Global Investment

… ….

"Babe, over here!" he shouted.

Mu Chen stood below the Lin Family Group,

"What are you doing? I was just about to head to the bank for a loan."

"The whole company thinks I'm a joke, so I must prove them wrong."

Lin Yuyan responded, her voice tinged with frustration.

"Ha! Who dares to laugh at my wife?" Mu Chen said, his eyes twinkling.

"Hop on! I'm about to chauffeur you to a major investment meeting."

Mu Chen chuckled and patted the backseat of the electric bicycle invitingly.

"Smile!"

Lin Yuyan's eyes narrowed at Mu Chen's casual demeanor, feeling irritation within her.

She spun on her heels as if to leave.

But before Lin Yuyan could take a step, he scooped her up effortlessly and set her on the backseat of the electric bicycle.

"You!"

Lin Yuyan's cheeks flushed a shade of deep crimson. This was the first time since their marriage that Mu Chen had been so bold with his actions.

A half-hour later, they arrived.

"Hop off, love, we're here!"

Mu Chen helped Lin Yuyan down from the bike before parking it neatly.

"What? You're telling me we're meeting with Global Investment?"

Lin Yuyan questioned, her eyes narrowing as they fixed on the shimmering sign atop the building.

Global Investment, boasting a market value of several billion, was undoubtedly a towering giant in Chuyang City's financial landscape.

Moreover, it ranked among the top ten investment firms across the entire Chu Province.

"Yep, I arranged a meeting through Murong Feng. Now go on, knock them dead. I'll be here, eagerly awaiting your triumphant return,"

Mu Chen urged, sensing Lin Yuyan's hesitancy.

"Murong Feng... "Great!"

Upon hearing Murong Feng's name, Lin Yuyan felt optimistic.

"If you're lying, Mu Chen, you're in for it," she warned, but her voice was tinged with excitement.

Taking a deep breath to calm her racing heart,

Lin Yuyan stepped through the doors of Global Investment.

Just as she did, a soothing voice greeted her.

"Hello, may I have the pleasure of speaking with Miss Lin Yuyan?"
