Rebirth of the Cultivation Devil-Chapter 1197 - 1122: Why Should We?

Meng Yunhe was taken aback upon hearing Ye Qingfeng’s words.

An enemy of the Wu Family?

Wasn’t the princess of the Wu Family fond of him?

How did they become enemies now?

"Young Master Ye, you must be joking. Aren’t you the Wu Family’s son-in-law? How could you be enemies with them?" Meng Yunhe probed hesitantly.

He couldn’t believe it. Without the Wu Family’s support, how could Ye Qingfeng have established such a large Huayu Group in Qingyun City?

Moreover, the Wu Family had their own influence in Qingyun City. As the deputy mayor, Meng Yunhe knew that Tianyi Group was operated by the Wu Family.

Currently, the party secretary of East River City, Duan Jingtian, also had a close relationship with the Wu Family. It was said that he was once the secretary general for the Wu Family’s patriarch, Wu Zhilin, personally elevated by Wu Zhilin himself.

Meng Yunhe always wanted to get closer to Duan Jingtian but couldn’t find the opportunity. This time, he sought to curry favor with Ye Qingfeng, hoping to join the Wu Family’s faction and build a good relationship with the top leader.

Now Ye Qingfeng was telling him that he was an enemy of the Wu Family?

"I’m in no mood for jokes. I am indeed an enemy of the Wu Family. If they provoke me again, I might personally destroy them," Ye Qingfeng said with a cold smile.

Destroy the Wu Family?

Meng Yunhe’s mouth twitched, and he felt speechless. Was this person joking?

However, according to his investigation, this young man was an extremely terrifying Martial Artist.

With limitless potential in the future, perhaps he did have the potential to wipe out a family single-handedly.

Unfortunately, not now.

More growth was needed.

That was Meng Yunhe’s thought.

"Have you decided? I just happen to have a meeting with Tianyi Group shortly if you’re interested in joining me," Ye Qingfeng said with a faint smile.

Meng Yunhe immediately understood that Ye Qingfeng wasn’t on good terms with the Wu Family, and since Tianyi Group was part of the Wu Family’s industry, Ye Qingfeng wanted him to make a choice.

"Everything will be as Young Master Ye says," Meng Yunhe replied respectfully.

He decided to take a gamble and stake his future on this young man.

He couldn’t curry favor with the Wu Family and, without backing, it was tough to rise beyond his current position. He needed support.

In Ye Qingfeng, Meng Yunhe suddenly saw hope. Although he didn’t know Ye Qingfeng well yet, the man who single-handedly shaped Huayu Group, possessed miraculous medical skills, and had the potential to wipe out the Wu Family, was worth betting on.

It’s just that if Meng Yunhe knew Ye Qingfeng’s ultimate identity,

he’d probably kneel on the spot, willing to become a loyal servant.

However, on the other hand,

if it was indeed the original Ye Qingfeng,

would he give such an insect like him this opportunity?

Still in the same hotel, the Tianyi Group just switched rooms. Ye Qingfeng led Meng Yunhe forward with large strides.

Upon entering the luxurious top-class suite, Ye Qingfeng saw a chubby man in a suit with slightly thinning hair and a decent-looking woman beside him.

Despite her decent looks, the woman wore heavy makeup, incomparable to Wang Siyu beside Ye Qingfeng.

Lastly, there was an older man in the room, looking somewhat aged but well-maintained, appearing more like a middle-aged man.

Upon seeing this middle-aged man, Meng Yunhe was stunned—he recognized him. It was Duan Jingtian, the top leader of East River City.

Duan Jingtian also saw Meng Yunhe. His gaze sharpened instantly, causing Meng Yunhe’s heart to skip a beat.

As the deputy mayor, secretly meeting the head of Huayu Group alone and encountering Duan Jingtian meant he was likely offending Duan Jingtian, risking being sidelined.

Meng Yunhe felt instant regret. Had he known Duan Jingtian would be present, he would never have come. Now, if Ye Qingfeng really confronted Tianyi Group, he must take a stance.

If he wanted to side with Ye Qingfeng, he might have to completely offend Duan Jingtian, the top leader of East River City.

Seeing so many people enter, Ma Tenghua was briefly stunned but then noticed Meng Yunhe, his eyes flickering slightly.

Wang Siyu led Ye Qingfeng and others to their seats.

"Mr. Wang, I didn’t expect you to bring Mayor Meng along," Ma Tenghua said with a smile, looking at Wang Siyu.

"Mr. Ma has also brought Secretary Duan, hasn’t he?" Wang Siyu smiled back.

Duan Jingtian and Meng Yunhe exchanged glances, and Meng Yunhe felt a bit embarrassed. They seemed to be strengthening the positions of Ma Tenghua and Wang Siyu, inadvertently putting himself, a deputy mayor, in opposition to the top leader.

"If Mr. Ma has something to say, just say it," Wang Siyu stated coldly. The rivalry between Huayu Group and Tianyi Group had been ongoing for years. If it weren’t for Ye Qingfeng, Huayu Group might have been swallowed up by Ma Tenghua’s Tianyi Group.

Thus, Wang Siyu naturally held no fondness for Ma Tenghua.

"Mr. Wang, in that case, I’ll be direct. Our Tianyi Group intends to collaborate with your Huayu Group to establish a joint venture company, with each holding half of the shares. This venture also aligns with national development efforts, which the state strongly supports. Thus, I specifically invited Duan Jingtian, the party secretary of East River City," Ma Tenghua said, squinting slightly.

Wang Siyu inwardly chuckled. Another joint venture proposal with equal shareholding—how similar to Meng Yunhe’s previous tactics.

"Why does Mr. Ma think Huayu Group would agree?" Wang Siyu replied with a faint smile.

"Mr. Wang, even though your Huayu Group is doing well, your production is limited. If we jointly establish a company, with you providing the technology and our Tianyi Group providing 80% of the funding, it would be mutually beneficial. Of course, if our Tianyi Group provides all the funding, we’d need a leading position, holding 55% while your Huayu Group takes 45%," Ma Tenghua advised earnestly, seemingly aiming for a win-win situation.

In her mind, Wang Siyu coldly noted that Tianyi Group was more interested in Huayu Group’s technology. With its cutting-edge science, Tianyi Group could potentially become one of Huaxia’s strongest groups.

However, Wang Siyu had no intention of collaborating with Tianyi Group. Not only had she seen through their malicious intent, but even without doing so, the relationship between Huayu Group and Tianyi Group made collaboration impossible.

Besides, Huayu Group as it was didn’t need to collaborate with anyone.

From Wang Siyu’s expression, Ma Tenghua guessed her thoughts. He coldly smiled to himself, for he had not prepared to meet Wang Siyu purely on a whim.
