You got your marriage certificate and then abandoned me? I'll feed the richest woman in the wor

Chu Mengyao crossed her arms and held her chin high: "Leave Shen Wanzhou and come with me. The money and power she can give you, my Chu family will give you three times as much!"

A strong perfume scent filled the air between the two.

A layer of icy coldness gathered in Chen Yuan's dark eyes.

He was about to raise his hand to signal the eagle to throw these ignorant fools out.

Suddenly, a series of light and heavy footsteps came from the solid wood staircase on the second floor.

Plop, plop.

The slippers stomped on the wooden steps with a distinctly hurried and angry rhythm.

Chen Yuan stopped what he was doing and looked up.

Chu Mengyao also frowned and turned her head in response to the sound.

Shen Wanzhou was wearing a plush pajama top with a peach pattern.

Her hair was casually tied back with a shark clip.

She didn't even wear makeup, walking down the stairs with a bare face.

But those timid, peach-blossom eyes...

At this moment, however, it was as cold as an ice-cold blade, piercing straight into Chu Mengyao's body.

There was no trembling as is seen during a social anxiety episode.

The avoidance and shrinking away when not encountering strangers.

She straightened her thin back.

With an aura of pure authority befitting the head of a multi-billion dollar conglomerate, he climbed the last step one by one.

She was upstairs and heard everything clearly.

Buying a house, writing checks, and taking her away with him?

A stray dog ​​suddenly appeared in her territory, trying to steal her food.

Do they really think she, Shen Wanzhou, is just a clay figure who only knows how to cry under the covers?

Chu Mengyao looked Shen Wanzhou up and down in her childish pajamas.

A hint of undisguised contempt flashed across his eyes.

"So this is what the famous Chairman Shen looks like in private."

She sat back down on the leather sofa and crossed her legs.

"You heard the conditions I just stated, right?"

"We're all business people; you can't force things."

"If you know what's good for you, you won't stand in Mr. Chen's way of the future..."

"Shut up."

Two words.

Crisp, sharp, and leaving no room for argument.

Shen Wanzhou walked to Chen Yuan's side.

He didn't even glance at the property certificate and checks on the coffee table.

She reached out her fair hand and slipped it directly into Chen Yuan's large trench coat pocket.

The movements were skillful and natural.

He pulled out the spare phone that he usually only used to issue top-level business orders.

Fingerprint unlock, the cool light from the screen illuminated her expressionless face.

"Who do you think you are, coming to my house to negotiate with me?"

Shen Wanzhou's gaze swept over Chu Mengyao's face, which was covered in exquisite makeup.

It's like looking at a pile of useless garbage.

The call connected, and I pressed the speakerphone button.

"Chairman Shen."

On the other end of the phone, the voice of the director of the core venture capital department of the Shen Group immediately rang out.

With absolute respect and in a state of readiness.

"Check all of the Chu family's supply chains and core projects in the southern market."

Shen Wanzhou speaks very quickly.

It was driven by a reckless madness.

Within ten minutes.

"No matter what project they're negotiating, we'll snatch it away with a 30% premium."

"Regardless of which supply chain they've invested in, use all your funds to force a short-selling takeover."

"No need to assess risks, no need to request budget approval."

She glanced at Chu Mengyao, whose face was gradually stiffening.

"I will make all of the Chu family's businesses in the south become stepping stones for the Shen family before the sun goes down today."

The director on the other end of the phone didn't even stammer.

"Understood, Chairman Shen. All members of the venture capital department are online. Begin executing the interception order within one minute."

The call ended.

The busy signal echoed in the lobby.

Chu Mengyao was taken aback at first, then let out a sharp, cold laugh.

"Shen Wanzhou, are you crazy?"

"You want to start a war with the Chu family just for a man?"

"That's a business worth tens of billions. You're willing to risk the fate of the Shen family just to spite them?"

Shen Wanzhou casually tossed her phone onto the coffee table.

It made a crisp snapping sound.

"It's none of your business whether the Shen family lives or dies."

She looked down at Chu Mengyao, without a trace of fear in her eyes.

"But none of my men dare to lay a finger on me."

"I'll use money to crush her family until there's nothing left."

The smile on Chu Mengyao's face slowly disappeared.

The bodyguards behind her also sensed that something was wrong and exchanged glances.

This kind of money-burning approach, regardless of the cost and purely for venting anger.

In the business world, this is nothing short of a crazy act that would kill a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of your own.

But the Shen family happens to have the means to act recklessly.

Time passed by, second by second.

The vintage wall clock ticked.

The hall was so quiet it was suffocating.

Chen Yuan stood behind Shen Wanzhou.

Looking at her slender yet upright back, a deep sense of indulgence welled up in his deep eyes.

This cat showed all its claws to protect him.

They are absolutely adorable.

Ring ring—!

A shrill cell phone ringtone suddenly rang out inside Chu Mengyao's Hermes bag.

It was like a bolt of lightning, a death knell.

Chu Mengyao suddenly snapped out of her daze and frantically rummaged through her bag for her phone.

The caller ID showed it was her father, the current head of the Chu family.

She swiped to answer the call, her palms sweating profusely.

"Dad, what's wrong...?"

"Chu Mengyao! You idiot, who did you offend in Jianghai City?!"

The roar coming from the other end of the phone made Chu Mengyao's eardrums ache.

Even the bodyguards next to them could hear it clearly.

"Our three core supply chain factories in Shenzhen have just been forcibly acquired by the Shen family, cutting off our supply!"

"Shen's company snatched up all four of Hangzhou's multi-billion-yuan logistics projects at a premium!"

"The cash flow has completely dried up! The Chu family's operations in the south have collapsed!"

"You get back here right now! Go and kowtow to the Shen family to apologize!"

The roar abruptly stopped.

Chu Mengyao's mind went blank.

The phone slipped from her stiff fingers.

It crashed to the floor, and the screen shattered into pieces.

Just a moment ago, she was an arrogant heiress.

At that moment, it felt as if the bones in his legs had been removed, and he collapsed onto the sofa with a thud.

The exquisite makeup couldn't hide the deathly pallor on her face.

His lips trembled, and he couldn't utter a single syllable.

ten minutes.

In just ten minutes.

Her family's pride and confidence paled in comparison to this woman in her pajamas.

Like a paper toy, it was torn to shreds.

Shen Wanzhou coldly watched her miserable state, limp as mud.

There was not a shred of sympathy.

She stretched out her slender finger and pointed straight at the manor's wide black and gold gate.

Chu Mengyao received a call to the police that her family was on the verge of collapse, and she was so frightened that she fell to the sofa. Shen Wanzhou pointed at the door with a cold face and said, "Take your trash and get out of my house."
