C18 Didn't You See It?

Lee Moxue's plans were derailed due to the incident at Comobad Group, and her anticipated leisure activities fell through as well. The following day, filled with disappointment and anger, Lee Moxue and Chen Miaomiao returned to their home in Istripgan. Chu Chenglong couldn't join them on their journey back because Moxue had purchased a plane ticket for him to fly back separately.

Soon after, everyone reconvened. At Chen Jun's house, Moxue was livid, shattering many of the house's valuable vases and plants. Chen Jun attempted to soothe her, but to little avail. In a tone brimming with empathy, he lamented, "Such a shame! Hundreds of billions just evaporated. Sigh."

"Tell me about it! It's absolutely maddening!" Moxue replied, her anger subsiding somewhat. "I had hoped to use that money to alleviate some of the pressure on your company, but now, it seems hopeless. Sigh."

Chu Chenglong, intrigued, inquired, "Mr. Chen, is your company facing any particular challenges?"

Chen Jun reassured him with a dismissive shake of his head, "It's a minor issue. The company hasn't been doing well these past few years, business is tough, and we've been consistently operating at a loss. The pressure is significant!"

Chu Chenglong was taken aback by this revelation. He had returned with the intention of expressing his gratitude to Mr. Chen. It was only now that he discovered Mr. Chen's difficulties, despite having been back for quite some time. He saw this as his chance to give back.

With unwavering conviction, Chenglong assured, "Mr. Chen, don't worry. The company's issues will be resolved very soon!"

"You? How will you manage that?" Moxue asked, her gaze heavy with skepticism.

"At this critical moment, you're still spouting fantasies. Your uncle's company is missing billions, not just a few hundred dollars!" She couldn't help but laugh out of frustration.

Chen Miaomiao joined in the laughter. "Dad, did you hear that? Chu Chenglong is going to resolve your company's financial crisis! Hahaha..." She laughed so hard that she doubled over in pain, pounding the sofa uncontrollably.

Chenglong remained earnest. "I mean every word. Just you wait. The crisis at Uncle's company will be resolved before you know it!"

After finishing his statement, he picked up the phone and dialed out, "Dark Night, tomorrow go invest 10 billion in my uncle's company, no conditions attached!"

Chu Chenglong wasn't sure exactly how much capital Rainsong had at its disposal, but 10 billion was a mere trifle. For a top-tier financial group like Rainsong, it was barely a drizzle!

A respectful voice responded from the other end, "Understood, Master. I'll handle it tomorrow."

Chu Chenglong ended the call and then noticed the Chen family staring at him as if he were a specter.

Puzzled, he inquired, "Uncle Chen Jun, Auntie, Sister Miaomiao, is there something on my face?"

The next moment, Chen Miaomiao was clutching her stomach, pounding the sofa in a fit of laughter.

"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter here! Dad, did you hear that? Chu Chenglong is going to invest a hundred billion in your company!"

She was at a loss for words to describe Chu Chenglong and could only continue to laugh uncontrollably.

"It was already a mess, and now you're adding to the chaos!" Lee Moxue said with impatience. "Dark Night? Why not just say Doombringer while you're at it?"

Chu Chenglong expressed his surprise, "Auntie, you actually know of Doombringer?"

Doombringer was another inmate at Dragon's Maw Prison, still incarcerated and unable to leave.

Lee Moxue replied sarcastically, "Know him? Of course, we often go shopping together!"

At that, Chu Chenglong realized he was being mocked by Lee Moxue once again.

"Anyway, everything I've said is true. You'll see for yourselves tomorrow."

Chen Miaomiao, no longer able to laugh, wiped away tears that had formed from her intense amusement.

"I'm going to bed. I can't stand to stay here and listen to any more of his tall tales!" With that, she headed upstairs.

Lee Moxue also wanted to leave the scene. However, before retreating to her room, she gave Chu Chenglong a look of displeasure and said, "Chenglong, I really don't have anything against you, but there's one thing you must understand. While you're staying with us, you need to behave and watch what you say. It's one thing to make these claims at home, but if word gets out, I won't be able to save face!"

Chen Jun intervened to defuse the tension, saying, "Alright, sweetheart, you should get some rest. I'll have a word with Chenglong."

Lee Moxue gave a dismissive glance and cautioned, "Make sure you talk some sense into him. His behavior could easily stir up trouble outside, and who do you think will have to deal with the fallout? You, that's who."

With a smile, Chen Jun gently persuaded Lee Moxue to return to her room.

Once back in the living room, he turned to Chu Chenglong with genuine concern. "Chenglong, how are you feeling since you've been back? Is there anything bothering you?"

Chu Chenglong paused to consider before shaking his head. "No, Mr. Chen, there's nothing that's been troubling me."

Chen Jun gave a nod of understanding. "The Rainsong Group has been making some significant moves lately. It seems like all of Istripgan is orbiting around them. Every industry is eager to get involved. Miaomiao is even considering starting her own garment company to see if she can catch some of that luck."

He continued, addressing Chu Chenglong, "Miaomiao might be quite busy with this new venture, so Chenglong, I'm sure she could use your help."

Chu Chenglong wasn't very familiar with the inner workings of Rainsong. He generally stayed out of it, leaving the management to the Rainsong executives. This news piqued his curiosity, though. Miaomiao starting a garment company? That should be simple enough.

The next day, Chu Chenglong learned that Miaomiao intended to partner with her best friend to launch a garment company. They planned to feature her friend's designs, with Miaomiao providing the financial backing.

At Chen Jun's suggestion, Chu Chenglong accompanied Miaomiao to the site of their new business. The location was quite impressive, situated in a bustling shopping center in the heart of Istripgan.

Miaomiao's best friend, Tong Kexin, greeted her with a warm embrace. "Haha, our stunning beauty, did you miss me?" Tong Kexin affectionately nuzzled Chen Miaomiao's cheek.

Chen Miaomiao, feeling slightly overwhelmed, playfully protested, "Come on, Kexin, cut it out. We've got serious business to attend to today, my dear friend!"

Chen Miaomiao was nearly breathless with excitement, "Oh, stop teasing, my dear! We've got serious business to attend to today!"

"Right, today's the day we bid for the Rainsong office building! If we can secure investment from Rainsong, we'll be set for life!"

Rainsong wasn't just well-known.

It was a powerhouse in the industry!

Forming a partnership with Rainsong was something most people wouldn't even dare dream of.

Chen Miaomiao and Tong Kexin were going in with a 'let's give it a shot' attitude, hoping for a stroke of luck.

If they were fortunate enough to secure a special investment from Rainsong,

it would be an absolute honor, a milestone to be etched into the family history!

"Huh?"

At that moment, Tong Kexin caught sight of Chu Chenglong standing behind Chen Miaomiao.

Curiously, she inquired, "And who is this handsome fellow?"

Chen Miaomiao snorted dismissively, "Handsome? That's Chu Chenglong, the guy I mentioned before – the one who's full of hot air!"

The room erupted into laughter.
