My Ares Son-in-Law

A flicker of panic and confusion crossed Liu Jianming's eyes, which was quickly replaced by a strange sense of excitement.

It was a long-lost feeling, as if a volcano that had been dormant for many years had suddenly shown signs of awakening, and something deep in my heart was stirring.

His thoughts involuntarily drifted back to his youth.

At that time, he was full of vigor and ambition, harboring the lofty aspiration to plant the Jianming Group's flag all over China.

He imagined himself standing at the pinnacle of commerce, overlooking the entire commercial landscape of the Dragon Kingdom, and that sense of accomplishment and pride made his blood boil.

He also recalled countless nights when, as the world slept, he sat alone in his office, looking at the national and even global business landscape, feeling a surge of resentment and longing.

He was unwilling to develop his business in just a small ancient city; he longed to venture into a wider world and compete with those business giants.

However, the iron wall of reality was too thick, like an insurmountable high wall standing in his way.

The pond in the ancient city is too small, resources are limited, and opportunities are scarce.

After countless setbacks and failures, that ambition was eventually worn down by time, buried deep in the heart, and became a sigh in the dead of night.

When the night is quiet, he lies in bed, staring at the ceiling. Occasionally, his youthful dreams will flash through his mind, but they are quickly overwhelmed by the pressure of reality.

In the end, he simply shook his head bitterly, a gesture that seemed to convey endless helplessness and vicissitudes.

His voice was hoarse with a hint of weariness, like the sound of an old machine: "Mr. Xiao, you flatter me."

"At my age, what ambitions could I possibly have?"

"It is already a great fortune to be able to protect this small piece of land in the ancient city and safeguard my family and the foundation of Jianming Group."

“Ambition... that’s the fuel for you young people.”

After speaking, he lowered his head slightly, a hint of loneliness and disappointment in his eyes.

"Is that so?" Xiao Chen's voice was not loud, but it seemed to have a peculiar penetrating power, like an invisible sharp blade that could pierce through the deepest desires in people's hearts.

The sound echoed in the quiet living room, as if carrying some mysterious magic, making the air freeze.

He leaned forward slightly, his movements small, yet they seemed to contain immense power.

Those dark eyes shone with an astonishing light, like flames burning in the abyss, fiery and mysterious, as if they could devour everything around them.

His words struck Liu Jianming's heart with clarity, each one like a heavy hammer blow, pounding against Liu Jianming's heart, which had begun to calm down: "If I were to hand you a sword powerful enough to cleave through the entire business world of China..."

As he spoke, his gaze slowly swept over the document on the coffee table that represented the ownership of the Nanlai Group.

The document lay there quietly, seemingly ordinary, yet it seemed to contain boundless power and opportunity.

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, as if he could already see this "sword" dominating the business world in the future.

"Do you dare to use it... to conquer?"

Liu Jianming's heart pounded violently as if struck by a heavy hammer, the sound particularly clear in his silent chest.

His body trembled slightly, and his eyes revealed a hint of shock and disbelief.

That sword... belongs to the Xunjiang Group?

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant. This idea struck him like lightning, leaving him momentarily stunned. He subconsciously followed Xiao Chen's gaze to the file folder, his eyes fixed on it, as if trying to glean some clue from the thin sheets of paper.

Immediately, he shook his head and chuckled, a smile that carried the shrewdness and caution inherent in businessmen.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered carefully, and slowly said, "Mr. Xiao, your sword... is indeed sharp."

"If Xunjiang Group can be successfully taken over, it has huge potential, I have no doubt about that."

"From a market perspective, the sector it operates in is on the rise, and if managed properly, it is bound to achieve great things in the future."

"Moreover, it seems to have some unknown resources and connections behind it, which is also a huge asset."

However, his tone shifted, revealing a hint of worry and skepticism: "But if I may be frank, it is currently... just a dagger with its initial edge."

"There is still a considerable gap compared to our Jianming Group."

"After so many years of development, Jianming Group has formed a complete industrial chain and a stable market share, and has a good reputation and brand influence in the industry."

"Although Xunjiang Group has potential, it is still in its initial stage. Its financial strength, talent pool, and market channels are not yet mature enough."

"Use it to carve out a path for the Dragon Kingdom's commercial empire?"

"This……"

At this point, he frowned slightly, a hint of hesitation and uncertainty in his eyes.

“You underestimate this sword, and you underestimate me.” Xiao Chen interrupted him calmly, his voice showing no displeasure at being questioned, only a matter-of-fact certainty.

His eyes revealed a sense of confidence and composure, as if everything was under his control.

He slightly raised his chin, his strong jawline exuding an undeniable decisiveness, and continued, "The potential of Xunjiang Group is far more than what you see."

"It is like a treasure trove that has not yet been fully explored, containing countless precious resources and enormous energy."

"The fact that I dared to entrust it to you means that it has enough strength to conquer the commercial world of the Dragon Kingdom."

"I, Xiao Chen, have always been accurate in judging people and things, and this is by no means a statement of blind confidence."

"Furthermore, I will fully support you from behind and provide you with the resources and assistance you need."

"Whether it's a funding gap, a talent shortage, or the expansion of market channels, none of the problems you're worried about are problems for me."

Although his voice was calm, without any desperate shouting or deliberately exaggerated passion, it carried an undeniable power, as if every word was a vow carved in stone, firm and unwavering.

The sound echoed in the quiet living room, striking Liu Jianming's heart like a heavy hammer, moving him deeply.

Liu Jianming listened quietly, leaning slightly forward, his hands unconsciously clasped together, a hint of contemplation and hesitation gradually appearing in his eyes.

His mind began to race. Xiao Chen had always had an excellent reputation in the business world. He was not one to make promises lightly, and once he spoke, he was always absolutely certain of his word.

Moreover, Xunjiang Group does have considerable potential. If it can get Xiao Chen's full support, it might really be able to make a name for itself in the business world of China.

However, the risks involved are considerable. The business world is like a battlefield, constantly changing, and any misjudgment can lead to total defeat. (End of Chapter)
