Shang Minghai is a legend in the business world: a self-made billionaire, a philanthropist who spends lavishly, and a business tycoon with unparalleled influence...
These are the labels on him.
He single-handedly built the Hanhai Chamber of Commerce, which monopolized half of the Dijiang business district, and has been serving as its president ever since. Wherever he goes, he is almost always the most dazzling presence in the crowd.
As a businessman, he has reached the top, touched the ceiling of his career, and there is almost no way to go further.
But he also knew perfectly well that there were other people above the ceiling.
But that field is not something that can be accessed by ordinary businessmen.
So when the legendary God of War approached him, he seized the opportunity and willingly became a "white glove," becoming the second-ranked Heavenly Star among the Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals.
"President, this is your schedule for tomorrow. Do you think it needs any changes?"
Shang Minghai's secretary—who is also his son—placed tomorrow's schedule in front of him.
"Cancel them all."
Within just a few hours, the table was already overflowing with documents.
While reviewing the documents on the table, Shang Minghai said without looking up, "I have more important things to do tomorrow."
"Ok."
The secretary nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Father...why don't you take a rest? It's just as good to leave these things to someone else."
Shang Minghai frowned and said sternly, "How many times have I told you! Don't call me father in the Chamber of Commerce! Call me Chairman!"
“I… understand, Chairman.”
The secretary lowered her head.
“Starting tomorrow, I will have to deal with some matters concerning the He Group. These matters need to be completed today, otherwise the backlog of documents will affect the operational efficiency of the company and the Chamber of Commerce.”
"The He Group?"
The secretary looked thoughtful. He was used to Shang Minghai reviewing documents while listening to others report on their work. "The He family's company was already a giant, and it seems to have become even stronger recently because of the anti-cancer drugs. Offending them shouldn't be a good thing for us."
Shang Minghai shook his head and said, "It was something that official entrusted to me."
The secretary understood and didn't press the matter further.
"What should we do with the new piece of land we just acquired?"
The secretary continued reporting on other tasks, "There's a holdout resident who seems to have some connections. Should we use... a bit more forceful methods?"
"Let the local gangs handle it. I'll have someone cover for their connections."
As night deepened, only the conversation between the father and son echoed in the office.
……
At this moment, He Qinzhou was in his penthouse, holding Que Ming in his arms, his hand constantly stroking her slightly protruding belly, while his mind was thinking about how to deal with Xiao Tianze.
At this time.
His phone suddenly rang.
She picked it up and saw it was her mother.
After the call connected, the other party's voice came through.
"I've already arranged everything for you. Now your dad's all alone, so you'd better keep an eye on him for me!"
"What's the big deal? With my mom's abilities, she can find a new person to monitor my dad in three days at most, right?"
"You brat, what do you mean by surveillance?" The voice on the other end suddenly changed.
He Qinzhou couldn't help but smile.
Look at those main characters, one by one, they are all orphans, disliked by their uncles and aunts.
Even if they manage to marry into the woman's family, they still have to endure the disdain of the woman's entire family.
Compared to them, my own family is like paradise.
She received loving care from her mother and father, and was given the best education from a young age.
With such a perfect family relationship, how could he possibly allow Xiao Tianze to destroy it all?
Chapter 229: A Woman Who Is Happy to Help Others
Kyoto's Pujiang Avenue.
This place is a symbol of wealth in Kyoto, and all the entertainment venues along the street are basically set up for large families.
Here, a single night's expenses can range from hundreds of thousands to over a million.
Inside a luxury nightclub.
The young talents reveled to the accompaniment of dynamic music.
Among the crowd, however, there was an unusual figure.
A handsome young man in a suit sat down in front of a middle-aged man and said loudly:
"Uncle Lei, trust me, this year you'll hand over all the goods you're preparing for export to my men."
The middle-aged man frowned, deep in thought.
"This only benefits you, but what about me?"
“He Qi, we are all businessmen. We must weigh the interests in every matter. If we don’t even have these basic interests, what are we talking about?”
The middle-aged man stood up, waved his hand, and prepared to leave.
You can gain my favor!
"Favor?"
The middle-aged man paused for a moment upon hearing this, then shook his head.
"Son, if your dad came to talk to me, I might be more interested, but what is your favor worth?"
"What if it's a favor from the He family heir?"
Upon hearing He Qi's words, the disdain in the middle-aged man's eyes vanished instantly.
He looked at He Qi, whose face was firm and calm, his expression full of solemnity.
"what are you saying?"
"The struggle for succession to the head of the He family has begun, and I am one of the three candidates. Support me, and you will gain the He family as a friend."
"Having three candidates doesn't mean your chances of success are one in three."
The middle-aged man said solemnly.
"But I'm confident that He Qinzhou's lineage should also fade into obscurity!"
The middle-aged man stared at He Qi silently, hesitating for a long time.
"This is a gamble, and no businessman likes to gamble."
"But at the same time, it's also a huge gamble!"
He Qi quickly replied loudly.
He slowly stood up, placed his hands on the table, and quietly looked at the middle-aged man, his expression full of unquestionable confidence.
"He Qinzhou's odds are low, but mine are high, frighteningly high!"
"If you bet right, the Lei family will rise to a new level, and there will definitely be a place for the Lei family on both sides of Pujiang Avenue!"
Although He Qi's remarks were not passionate or inspiring, they were like a thunderclap, echoing in the minds of the middle-aged people.
Looking at the young man in front of him, the middle-aged man felt an inexplicable pressure.
The deafening music was still playing, but in his mind, only He Qi's words lingered.
After a long silence, the middle-aged man finally nodded heavily.
"You have more courage than your father."
As he spoke, the middle-aged man extended his hand.
Upon seeing this, He Qi smiled slightly.
"So he has now retired from the limelight."
As he spoke, He Qi extended his hand and shook hands with the middle-aged man.
"It's the era of the young now, the He family is, and so is Kyoto!"
The middle-aged man's gaze narrowed slightly, revealing a complex smile.
So, want to come and have some fun?
The middle-aged man raised an eyebrow, indicating his presence.
"No thanks, I'm not interested today!"
The neon lights flashed and dazzled He Qi, filling him with nostalgia.
Once he takes control of Heqin Prefecture in three months and successfully becomes the successor to the family, he can live a life of revelry every night and party every day.
But not now.
He understands this.
Watching the middle-aged man leave with two voluptuous beauties, his large hands continued to roam over their voluptuous bodies.
He Qi didn't linger any longer and turned to leave.
But when he reached the entrance of the nightclub, he suddenly paused.
In a corner of the nightclub, a conspicuous figure sat.
The woman was dressed in a fitted business suit, her long legs encased in black stockings, her toes lightly hooked on a pair of black-soled high heels, and she held a wine glass in her hand, quietly watching the revelers in the nightclub.
That aloof and ethereal face, radiant with a jade-like glow, seemed so out of place with everything around it.
Even He Qi couldn't help but glance at her again.
Just as he was about to leave, several young men suddenly walked towards him.
"Beautiful lady, would you like to sit down together?"
“I am the eldest son of the Zhao family. If you drink with me for an hour, I will reward you with one million.”
He Qi recognized the young man leading the group; he was indeed a member of the Zhao family.
The Zhao family's strength should not be underestimated, but only in comparison to other families in Kyoto.
"Not interested in."
Without turning her head, the woman parted her lips slightly and uttered a single sentence.
"Not interested? I'm from the Zhao family..."
Before the young man could finish speaking, he felt a hand suddenly land on his shoulder.
"Who?"
The young man turned around and looked.
Upon seeing the other person, his expression suddenly changed.
"Young Master He...!"
"roll!"
He Qi's face turned fierce.
These people dared not offend He Qi, and were so frightened that they scrambled away in a panic.
"Thank you."
The woman's voice rang out, and she raised her head, smiling at He Qi.
That captivating smile sent a shiver down He Qi's spine.
Pure and flawless like a lotus, it remains untainted even when surrounded by mud.
"Hello, I... I'm He Qi, I am..."
He Qi introduced himself haltingly.
