My Ares Son-in-Law

"It's like a signal, a dangerous signal that could trigger a series of chain reactions."

"But the most frightening thing is that, according to the intelligence we have, the core assets and office address of this new Xunjiang Group are built on the foundation of the Nanlai Group, which was recently taken over!"

"Nanlai Group is a well-known company in the ancient city. Its change of ownership and the entry of Xunjiang Group must be closely related. There may be a huge conspiracy behind it. We must be on guard!"

"A senior executive of the Nanlai Group died suddenly without any warning just a few days ago!"

"The official explanation is that it was an accidental fire."

Chen Yanhe's deep and sharp gaze slowly swept across the faces of everyone present. His eyes seemed to penetrate people's hearts and perceive the most subtle changes in their emotions: "To be honest, when I first saw this report, I accepted the explanation and thought it was just an unfortunate accident."

"After all, life is always full of unpredictable changes."

"But today, the news about Xunjiang Group exploded in the ancient city like a bombshell, forcing me to connect these two events and rethink them more deeply!"

His expression grew increasingly grave, his brows furrowed tightly, as if shrouded in an invisible fog: "Was this really an accident?"

"Or... is there a more complex conspiracy behind this, the start of a meticulously planned revenge against certain individuals or forces?"

Chen Yanhe's words carried a deep sense of worry, making everyone present realize the seriousness of the situation.

He paused, took a deep breath as if gathering his strength, and then dropped an even more explosive bombshell: "There's something else, which I'm sure everyone here has heard about."

"That was a martial arts sect that had been entrenched in the ancient city for many years and whose influence was deeply rooted. A few days ago, the police uprooted it completely with swift and decisive action!"

"When the news came, everyone thought it was a successful operation by the police, ridding the ancient city of a menace."

"But is the truth really as simple as the police report suggests?"

Chen Yanhe's voice suddenly rose, like a cold wind in the dead of winter, carrying a chilling aura: "I went through some special channels and went through a lot of trouble to find out that when the police arrived there, the scene was not a normal arrest scene at all, but a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood!"

"That scene was like hell on earth."

"Everyone in that sect, whether ordinary disciples, powerful martial artists with considerable reputation in the martial arts world, or even their sect leader, perished tragically!"

"The ground was stained with blood, and the corpses lay scattered everywhere. It was a truly gruesome sight."

"I can now tell you all clearly," Chen Yanhe said, enunciating each word with a firm and powerful tone, as if each word carried the weight of a thousand pounds, "that the establishment of the Xunjiang Group was by no means accidental. It was built on the backs of countless corpses, paved with the blood of countless people!"

"Behind this, there must be a powerful force manipulating things. In order to achieve their goals, they will stop at nothing and even create such a tragic scene."

"As an influential force in the ancient city, our Chen family cannot stand idly by. We must find out the truth as soon as possible and prepare for the worst. Otherwise, we may very well be the next ones to suffer disaster!"

"As for other matters, our Chen family can perhaps remain on the sidelines for the time being, observing the situation from the sidelines with a relatively detached attitude, without rushing to get involved."

"After all, the situation in the ancient city is complex, with various forces deeply entrenched. Taking rash action could bring unnecessary trouble to oneself."

Chen Yanhe paused slightly, his eyes revealing an undeniable firmness: "But right now, there is one thing we must figure out immediately, without delay!"

"This is not only about the interests of our Chen family, but also about the safety and stability of the entire ancient city." "If not handled properly, it could trigger a huge uproar that would drag countless people into it."

His gaze sharpened, like two daggers piercing the unknown fog to reveal the hidden truth: "What kind of forces are hidden behind this suddenly appearing Xunjiang Group, which seems to be under Xiao Chen's control?"

"Who is secretly supporting him in doing all this?"

"Is it some mysterious conglomerate, or is there some other ulterior motive?"

"We must find the answer as soon as possible, otherwise we will be like blind people groping in the dark, and may fall into a dangerous situation at any time."

Chen Yanhe's words were like a thunderclap, exploding in the conference room.

That deep and powerful voice echoed in the silent space, as if carrying an invisible pressure, making everyone's heartbeat quicken involuntarily.

"Om-!"

Chen Ziyan felt her mind go blank, as if she had been instantly illuminated by a bright light and then quickly plunged into darkness.

All she could hear was the frantic pounding of her own heart, "bang bang bang," a sound so intense it seemed to shatter her chest.

Xiao Chen's deep and mysterious eyes, as well as various legends about the God of War, kept appearing in her mind.

What if the God of War is actually behind all of this young Xiao Chen, controlling everything?

Chen Ziyan dared not think any further. Her body trembled slightly, and her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, her nails digging deep into her palms, yet she felt no pain.

Her eyes were filled with fear and worry, as if she saw a huge disaster about to befall her.

Chen Yanhe seemed to finally notice his daughter's unusually pale face and distraught state. He frowned, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.

He temporarily broke the tense atmosphere of the meeting, his tone becoming concerned and his voice much gentler: "Ziyan, what's wrong?"

"You look terrible, so distracted. Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"Is something wrong with your body?"

"If anything happens, you must tell your dad. Don't bear it all alone."

"Dad...I...I'm fine..."

Chen Ziyan suddenly snapped back to her senses, as if she had just woken up from a terrible nightmare.

She forced out an extremely strained smile, a smile more unsightly than a cry, trying to conceal the turmoil within her heart.

But her trembling voice betrayed her; it carried a hint of a sob, as if she were about to collapse at any moment: "I'm probably just tired from all the work lately. I'll be fine after a rest." (End of Chapter)
