"Ah?" Wang Chao was taken aback.
He was in Canton City and had previously clashed with Lafayette's subordinates, so he knew just how terrifying and powerful Lafayette was.
When he notified Shen Bing, he had already prepared himself for being abandoned by her.
After all, even if it was a powerful family like the Shen family, going head-to-head with Lafayette would result in serious injuries.
Merchants pursued profits!
And those big families pursued profits even more fiercely!
As the CEO of the Shen Group, Shen Bing would definitely not do something foolish like going to war with Lafayette along with her entire clan.
However, he didn't expect Shen Bing to stand decisively on his side like this.
He could hardly believe his ears and asked, "President Shen, are you sure?"
Shen Bing said slowly, "The principle of the Shen family is to repay kindness with gratitude!"
"You saved my life, so I should repay the favor!"
"No matter what kind of enemy you face, as long as you need my help, I will stand by your side without hesitation."
Wang Chao was moved by her words.
He couldn't tell that Shen Bing, who seemed soft and weak, was so resolute in the face of major events and had her own opinions.
"Thank you."
Wang Chao took a deep drag of his cigarette and said indifferently, "I just notified you, there's no need for you to take action against a mere Cui Hong."
"That's it, bye."
After hanging up the phone, he sat in the back of the taxi, smoking in silence.
Both the Zhao family and Shen Bing were helping him so much, and they were indeed taking great risks and might have to pay a heavy price to repay him.
So how could he let the Zhao family and Shen Bing suffer great losses?
"If we can avoid a big fight and keep the disturbance to a minimum, negotiation is the best choice. It can control the losses within the smallest range," Wang Chao thought.
Currently, apart from the Zhao family and Shen family, he didn't have many other allies.
If he were to engage in a big fight, he would have to rely on himself.
If it were overseas, he would have nothing to worry about and could charge into the enemy's stronghold alone, fighting as a lone hero.
But now he had family, he had brothers, which meant he had vulnerabilities.
Once he ventured deep into enemy territory alone, he wouldn't be able to protect the people behind him, and the enemy might target them.
Negotiation, resolving everything at the negotiation table, was the fastest and simplest method.
At this moment, Song He Nian called him.
"What's wrong?" Wang Chao asked.
"Yang Mi asked me again, why haven't you added her on WeChat yet?"
"Oh, I forgot about it while thinking about other things."
"Wang Chao, Yang Mi helped us out. Otherwise, we would have fallen out with the squad leader a long time ago. I think we should treat her to a meal as a way of expressing our gratitude."
"Sure, no problem. You make the appointment with her, confirm the time and place, and then let me know. Choose a nice place, I'll pay for it."
"Okay, don't forget to add her on WeChat."
"I got it, anything else?"
"No, that's it. Goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Chao thought for a moment, and finally opened WeChat and accepted Yang Mi's friend request.
After accepting, he originally wanted to send a message, but after typing "Hello classmate," he changed his mind, put down his phone, closed his eyes, and contemplated how to force Cui Hong to negotiate at the table.
Inside a villa in Canton City.
Shen Bing sat in the study, looking at the disconnected phone, drinking coffee, her eyes deep and contemplative.
On her desk, there were many pictures of Wang Chao.
Wang Chao meeting Li Mu, Wang Chao confronting He Guang, Wang Chao escorting Wang Zuxian out of the film set...
These were all Wang Chao's experiences, presented in front of her.
Zhang Long sat opposite her, placing the last set of photos of the sunken ship in front of Shen Bing, his face solemn, and said in a deep voice, "According to my investigation, He Guang and his subordinates were all killed by Wang Chao, bodies strewn all over!"
"Moreover, the Zhao Family helped him cover it up and deceived everyone."
"This Wang Chao is ruthless, not an ordinary person. If you keep him by your side, it might not be a good thing!"
"Now that you have agreed to cooperate with him in dealing with Cui Hong, if you don't handle it well, your position in the Shen Family will be in jeopardy, and it may even affect the entire Shen Family."
Shen Bing looked at the photos, her beautiful eyes lit up, and she smiled, "Without being ruthless, one cannot stand firm! If Wang Chao wasn't ruthless, I wouldn't want to cooperate with him."
"Uncle Zhang, don't worry, I have my own plans."
She held her phone and looked at several photos in her phone, smiling brightly.
In her phone were images of Li Mu being beaten half to death by Wang Chao.
Yang Mi and Duan Wuya and others had a happy gathering, drinking and having fun at the Garden Hotel.
She took the opportunity to go to the restroom and picked up her phone to check. When she saw that Wang Chao had added her as a friend, she was instantly excited, almost jumping with joy.
"This fool, he wouldn't add me as a friend until I reminded him with Song Henian. Let's see how I'll deal with you later!"
She looked at her phone and saw the notification "typing" from the other party, which made her even more joyful. She pouted her lips, feeling unhappy.
As a famous celebrity now, Wang Chao had made her wait for so long, showing no respect for her status as a star.
As a result, she calculated in her heart that if Wang Chao sent her a message later, she would also ignore him and reply tomorrow.
However, she waited for a long time but didn't receive any message from Wang Chao, not even the "typing" reminder.
"You jerk!"
"You added me without even saying a word. Am I that insignificant in your heart?"
"If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered with you. Let you fight with Duan Wuya!"
Seeing this, Yang Mi was so angry that she stomped her feet in place, feeling extremely upset, as if she was a worthless rag that had been dumped.
Just as she was about to lose her temper and give Wang Chao a big scolding through voice messages, Song Henian sent her a WeChat message:
"Classmate Yang Mi, Wang Chao and I discussed it and unanimously decided to treat you to a meal tomorrow as a token of gratitude."
Upon seeing this, Yang Mi's anger disappeared without a trace, replaced by joy.
She hurriedly replied, "Really?"
"Yes, Wang Chao got drunk and fell asleep, so I had to bring up this matter with you. But we're all poor, so the place where we'll treat you to dinner may not be that luxurious. Will the big celebrity be willing to grace us with your presence?"
"Song Henian, I won't be happy if you say it like that. We're classmates, and our statuses are equal. What do you mean by calling me a big celebrity? Do you think I've become arrogant after becoming a celebrity?"
"I didn't mean that. I just thought it might make you feel uncomfortable."
"It's just a classmates' gathering, there's nothing uncomfortable about it. You tell me, where is the location?"
"Tomorrow night at nine o'clock, at Mingjun BBQ stall behind our First Middle School."
"Alright, Song Henian, you're quite a foodie. I haven't been to that place for a long time either. See you tomorrow."
Yang Mi put away her phone, overjoyed, and said coquettishly in her heart, "Wang Chao, you little brat have some conscience. You still remember that barbecue stall. Today, I'll let you off!"
After saying that, she kissed Wang Chao's WeChat avatar and smiled charmingly.
Mingjun Barbecue Stall was the place where she and Wang Chao first met.
At that time, her family was poor, and she worked part-time at the barbecue stall. She was harassed by a group of hooligans, and it was Wang Chao who helped her out.
Back then, Wang Chao even got hit on the head with a wine bottle by those hooligans while trying to save her, resulting in him getting ten stitches.
Since then, she has been grateful to Wang Chao.
During those years, she wrote many love letters to Wang Chao, but due to shyness and reservedness, she never gave them to him.
Later, her parents moved to relatives in Yanjing, and she was forced to leave school. She could only keep the innocent memories of her youth towards Wang Chao in her heart, never forgetting.
Now Song He invited her to that barbecue stall for dinner, in her eyes, it was clearly Wang Chao's invitation, but he was too drunk, so Song He spoke up.
"Wang Chao, you were so bold just now. Why are you so shy when inviting me? I'll give you a chance to pursue me!"
"Tomorrow night at nine, don't be late."
Yang Mi looked at herself in the mirror, revealing a flirtatious smile.
After some thought, she took out her phone and sent a message to her assistant: "Buy me a set of uniforms from the senior high school department of the First Middle School. I need it tomorrow morning!"
She had made up her mind to wear the uniform of her former high school days and give Wang Chao a temptation of school uniform.
