Chapter 280: Chapter 277: Like Father, Like Son
"Captain, what should we do now? Are we just going to ignore Niu Daren’s actions?"
Shen Tingting was very angry. She never imagined that her pretend relationship with Niu Daren would become his lifesaver.
"Make Niu Daren a figurehead; keep his position unchanged, but transfer all power to Deputy Mayor Chang Hao. From now on, you’ll continue your mission as Niu Daren’s distant relative. Since you already have an identity, you can’t change it now to avoid suspicion." After careful consideration, Xialong finally made this decision.
"I’ll follow the captain’s arrangement." Shen Tingting agreed readily.
"Ye Fan, I hope you are the Terminator; otherwise, all our actions will be nothing but a joke." Xialong’s gaze turned deep as he stared at the thick introduction file on Ye Fan and murmured softly.
Soon, the documents about dealing with Niu Daren were released. Chang Hao would take over all affairs of Niu Daren, who would temporarily disappear from public view citing illness, with Chang Hao fully replacing him in important future activities.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible." Upon receiving the news, Niu Daren was in chaos, quickly dialing the phone number of his backer. The backer readily agreed to Niu Daren’s pleas, moving into action without any hesitation.
Within a few minutes, the backer called Niu Daren back and scolded him directly: "Fool, what kind of trouble have you gotten into? You’ve caused me quite a bit of trouble, and our relationship ends here. Don’t bother me anymore; we don’t know each other. A word of advice: think about how to save your life, or else the crimes you’ve committed are enough to kill you ten times over."
"Ah!" Niu Daren was panic-stricken, listening to the beeping sound after the call was cut off, growing more and more terrified.
"Isn’t it just not following a young girl’s orders? Is it worth such a big fuss? I’ve worked hard to get to where I am today, is it easy for me? Why treat me like this? I’ve got my reasons too, okay? Does it have to be so ruthless?" Niu Daren was filled with questions, unable to figure them out. He thought that no matter how prominent Shen Tingting’s background was, it wouldn’t be enough to shake his backer.
However, with the backer’s involvement, it caused trouble for the backer too. Was this matter’s scope too broad?
"I’m finished, completely finished." Niu Daren was sweating profusely, utterly petrified.
"Meng Hao, you scoundrel, I wish I could eat your flesh and drink your blood." His hatred for Meng Hao reached the bone.
Upon thinking about the backer’s words about saving his life, he set aside all concerns and went to implore Shen Tingting with a sense of fear.
Flowers bloom in different forms, each expressing a branch.
Meng Hao, although he got the project, he couldn’t be happy because his subordinates blocked Chu Mengyao on the road. This made his victory disgraceful. If Chu Mengyao hadn’t been delayed, he would have still won, but the effect would have been different.
At this moment, in the eyes of others, it was undoubtedly President Chu’s delay that led to the project ending up in Meng Hao’s hands.
He wanted to win righteously in front of everyone, defeating Mengyao in fair competition, but now it all seemed meaningless. His private actions did not achieve the satisfying results he wanted.
"Damn it, Lu Junwen, that bastard, taking my name to block Mengyao. I’ll destroy him." Meng Hao was furious, rushing to the headquarters to personally punish Lu Junwen.
At this time, his father, Meng Yinglong, the founder of Meng Family Business, called.
"Dad, are you calling to congratulate me?" Meng Hao said with a smile.
"I heard you spent a lot of effort with Niu Daren to secure this project — why bother? Had you just informed me, a mere breath from me would make Niu Daren not dare to utter a sound and obediently work for me." Meng Yinglong’s voice was thick with authority.
About his son’s approach, he neither praised nor criticized, but matter-of-factly stated the truth.
"Dad, such a minor issue doesn’t require you to intervene. Although I spent a lot of money, it shows I have skills. If I rely on you all the time, how can I inherit the family business in the future? I do need to train my own abilities and improve my business skills. Isn’t that beneficial for my growth?" Meng Hao knew what his father liked to hear, so he combined facts and spoke all the good words.
He was proving to his father that he wasn’t just a useless spender and that he possessed business acumen and strategies.
"Good, you’re indeed my kin. Like father, like son, that’s what this saying describes us." Meng Yinglong squinted his eyes and smiled; he was pleased that his son had such awareness.
The Meng Family Business was vast, and indeed it needed Meng Hao to inherit it. If the son had no skills, he would worry about the future of this massive business empire. Now, seeing his son doing well and knowing what to do, he was very pleased.
Although Meng Hao’s methods were somewhat aggressive, as the future successor of Meng Family Business, he should indeed be a bit domineering.
"Dad, someone’s acting in my name, recklessly doing things, I’m going to handle it. Do you have any opinions?" Meng Hao obediently sought advice.
He impliedly asked whether his father was involved in this matter.
Being able to mobilize Lu Junwen wasn’t ordinary, with a high possibility of it being someone from his own side.
"Son, be on guard against your rival Ji Tian. In Lu Junwen’s matter, I found traces of Ji Tian’s Military Advisor. As for what you do next, I won’t interfere. You can handle it yourself." Meng Yinglong explained sincerely, dispelling all his son’s concerns.
"Thanks, Dad, I’ll be careful." Meng Hao was enraged by Ji Tian, thinking little of the Military Advisor’s capability to make Lu Junwen believe he was acting on Meng Hao’s behalf.
"I don’t oppose you pursuing Chu Mengyao, but keep your limits. Don’t over-involve yourself; leave it to your subordinates. Got it?" Meng Yinglong advised.
"Dad, rest assured, I’ll make sure no external evidence points to Meng Family’s involvement. I’ll focus on managing the explicit business." Meng Hao vowed confidently.
"My son has grown up and doesn’t require my concern anymore." Meng Yinglong contentedly laughed and hung up the call.
