My stepmother forced me to donate bone marrow, so I retaliated by slapping my scumbag father in the

As the investigation deepened, he also learned about the past grievances between the Shen and Sun families.

Xu Ying was murdered by a doctor bribed by Sun Mei and her father.

Shen Ze lost his mother at a young age and endured six years of suffering alone.

Shen Cong's death is merely the beginning of this revenge.

Shen Ze no longer cared about Shen Cong's funeral arrangements, and only instructed Zhou Jin to handle related information.

But Zhou Jin felt that she could still do something for Shen Ze.

He looked up at the crematorium manager: "What time is Shen Cong scheduled for?"

The person in charge flipped through the registration form: "It starts at 2 PM and ends around 3 PM."

Who will collect the ashes?

"The family members are not in Shanghai, so they have entrusted staff to collect the package on their behalf, and then it will be sent to Shanghai."

Zhou Jin nodded, her gaze falling on the last column of the schedule.

"How experienced is the person in charge today?"

The person in charge paused for a moment, then understood the meaning behind the words.

He looked at the business card Zhou Jin handed him, and his breath hitched slightly.

Chairman's office at Mingzhu Private Bank.

The person behind this business card is none other than Shen Ze, one of the most sought-after top tycoons in Shanghai today.

The person in charge lowered their voice: "An intern will be learning with us this afternoon."

"A newbie?"

"I haven't been here long, so I'm not very skilled yet."

Zhou Jin put the business card back in his pocket and said only one sentence: "Then let him do more."

The person in charge remained silent for a few seconds, then slowly nodded.

The cremation ended at 3 p.m.

When the intern was being placed in the cremation container, he was bumped from behind.

He stumbled, and the urn slipped from his hand.

Snapped!

The box crashed heavily to the ground.

The ashes that had just been collected were all scattered, and then trampled everywhere by a few people who rushed over in a panic.

The intern turned pale and collapsed to the ground.

The crematorium manager arrived quickly, first sternly dismissed him, and then took out his mobile phone to contact Shen Jianjun.

Meanwhile, dozens of business tycoons had already taken their seats in the main hall of the Sun Family Manor in Longdu.

The group spoke in hushed tones, their eyes occasionally glancing toward the person in the main seat.

"The reason why Patriarch Sun summoned us all here today is probably because of Shen Ze."

"Shen Cong has just died, and there is no room for reconciliation between the two sides."

"Shen Ze destroyed Jianjun Group, so the Sun family will definitely retaliate."

"I heard that Longsheng Group has also fallen into Shen Ze's hands, and all of the Sun family's products in Longsheng Plaza across the country have been removed from the shelves."

"He only controls one subsidiary of the Longsheng Group, right?"

"I don't know if it's true or not, but I heard it's the entire group."

"What?"

"Cosmetics, clothing, jewelry, and health supplements—not a single one was left."

"The Sun family loses at least several billion yuan every year!"

The faces of several entrepreneurs who had just received the news changed drastically.

They finally understood why the gathering was so urgent.

Shen Ze's attack has begun.

Soon, the sound of a cane tapping the ground came from outside the door.

The murmurs in the main hall quickly subsided.

Sun Qingliang walked to the head seat with a gloomy expression and slowly sat down under everyone's gaze.

He glanced at everyone present: "The fact that you all came shows that you still remember the kindness and friendship the Sun family has shown us over the years."

"I've invited you all here today for only one thing."

A billionaire asked, "Patriarch Sun, do you want us to join forces against Shen Ze?"

"good."

Sun Qingliang pressed his hands on his cane: "Shen Ze destroyed Jianjun Group, killed my grandson, and then used a company under Longsheng Group to cut off the Sun family's sales channels."

"He has openly declared war on the Sun family."

"Starting today, any company that cooperates with the Sun family must immediately sever all ties with Shen Ze and his businesses!"

The main hall was quiet.

The entrepreneurs exchanged glances, their expressions grave.

Someone couldn't help but say, "Master Sun, Shen Ze is no longer just an ordinary wealthy man."

"He controls Mingzhu Private Bank and one of the subsidiaries of Longsheng Group, and also owns several other large enterprises."

"If we completely sever cooperation, our losses will likely be substantial."

Another person chimed in quietly, "Some companies have loans with Mingzhu Private Bank. If they suddenly turn against them, their cash flow could be affected."

"The Sun family will compensate you for your losses."

Sun Qingliang said coldly, "If anyone is unwilling to give up their immediate gains, they can leave now."

"But from the moment he stepped out of the manor, he was no longer a friend of the Sun family!"

Everyone's hearts sank.

This is not an invitation, but a forced choice for them to take sides.

The Sun family has been entrenched in Longdu for over a century, and most of the companies present have complex relationships with them.

No one dared to be the first to get up and leave at a time like this.

Sun Qingliang looked at the silent crowd and slowly stood up.

"From this day forward, only one of the Sun family or Shen Ze can survive!"

"Within a month, I will completely destroy Shen Ze and all the companies that cooperate with him!"

After Sun Qingliang finished speaking, the main hall became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Those present were all prominent figures in Longdu's business community, each with a net worth of billions or even tens of billions.

But at this moment, no one dared to speak easily.

Completely destroy Shen Ze within a month!

If it were six months ago, they wouldn't have hesitated at all.

The Sun family has a history of over a century, with assets approaching one trillion yuan, and possesses a vast network of connections and influence in Longdu.

Let alone a young man in his twenties, even a top billionaire with a net worth of hundreds of billions would not dare to easily break ties with the Sun family.

But things are different now.

Shen Ze has already proven his methods with the Jianjun Group.

That's a large conglomerate with a market value of hundreds of billions!

In a short period of time, the funding chain broke, projects stalled, properties were auctioned off, and even the office building was taken away.

Shen Jianjun, who was once a man of great prestige, can now only live as a guest in the Sun family's home, maintaining his last shred of dignity by managing a few peripheral businesses.

Shen Ze not only destroyed Jianjun Group, but also took control of Mingzhu Private Bank, Douxin, Caesar Hotel, companies under Longsheng Group, and Daxia International Private Hospital.

His assets have long exceeded 200 billion!

Can this kind of person really be destroyed within a month?

A wealthy real estate businessman looked down at the teacup in front of him, remaining silent for a long time.

His company has three large loans from Pearl Private Bank.

If they were to completely fall out with Shen Ze now, and problems arose with the loan, both projects currently under development could be brought to a standstill.

A jeweler next to him also frowned.

Although his brand has cooperated with the Sun family for many years, more than a dozen of his stores have loans from Mingzhu Private Bank.

Sun Qingliang demanded that he sever all cooperation with Shen Ze. Did he expect him to take out the money in his own pocket to buy jewelry outright and then resell it?

Several wealthy people sitting in the back were talking in hushed tones.

"This time, Patriarch Sun is serious."

"Shen Cong is dead, and there's no possibility of reconciliation between the two sides."

"If we terminate all cooperation immediately, who will bear the losses?"

"Didn't Patriarch Sun just say that the Sun family would provide compensation?"

"You really believe that? Dozens of companies acted together, and the losses were at least tens of billions. No matter how rich the Sun family is, they can't possibly make up for it all."

"Who in business would use their own money to start a business?"

"Forget about the hotel, some of the hospitals there aren't even as good as the ones Shen Ze owns."

Although the voice was kept very low, it still reached the ears of those around.
