Chapter 211 The Status You Deserve

But at the door of the villa, Chen Dongji's footsteps slowly stopped as if pulled by an invisible chain.

A thought emerged in my mind with some hesitation.

If I lose, it seems that with the help of Li You, I really have a chance to make a comeback.

Chen Dongji hesitated at the door for a long time, still unable to make up his mind what to do. His hesitation was like a candle flame swaying in the wind, weak but tenacious.

"Dad, you're finally back. What are you thinking about?" Chen Yajun poked his head out of the door curiously, looking at the weather which was becoming gloomier.

The weather in Seoul has been a bit changeable lately.

Chen Dongji forced out an awkward smile and said lightly, "I didn't think about anything, I just looked at the weather."

He was thinking about how to reveal these humiliating issues to his daughter and whether he should test her thoughts first. This dilemma was like a vine wrapped around his heart, tightening more and more.

As he became more and more annoyed, Chen Dongji's mind flashed with Li You's smiling face, and he couldn't help but whisper, "Ah Xi."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Chen Dongji froze on the spot. Fortunately, Chen Yajun was just bending down to prepare slippers for him and did not notice his father's loss of composure at that moment.

Chen Yijun raised his head and looked at Chen Dongji who was a little stiff. "What happened to Dad?"

Chen Dongji smiled with a straight face and made a lame excuse, "Nothing, a bug just flew by."

He made up his mind and prepared to go back and talk to his wife Liu Zhina first. When he walked to the sofa and sat down, he waved to Chen Yajun to go about his own business, and he fell into deep thought.

Liu Zhina brought over a cup of tea at this time, "How was the talk with him?"

In the ward that day, Liu Zhina and Chen Yijun both heard what Chen Yangzhe said.

Chen Yangzhe said that the assassination was done by Chen Rongji or Chen Dongji.

But as Chen Dongji's wife and daughter, they knew very well that Chen Dongji did not have the courage to do anything to Chen Yangzhe.

It’s not because Chen Yangzhe is his father, but because he is naturally afraid of Chen Yangzhe.

And this time when Chen Dongji went to ask Li You for communication, Liu Zhina knew about it.

"Hmm," Chen Dongji came back to his senses and smiled a little guiltily, with a hint of reluctance in his smile, "He agreed."

As the daughter of the former Minister of Justice, Liu Zhina naturally had some insight. She noticed that Chen Dongji's expression was not right, and took the initiative to ask, "What other conditions did Li You put forward?"

Chen Dongji laughed awkwardly, "No, I didn't. I just paid 10 billion won, plus 3 billion in dispatch expenses."

"And he asked the prosecutors and police officers who were on my side to help."

"Isn't this a good thing?" Liu Zhina was a little confused, "This way the information we get will be more accurate."

"Yes"

"Could it be that his rejection was ugly?" Liu Zhina thought of another possibility.

It was she who came up with the idea of ​​recruiting Li You as son-in-law, even though Li You and Chen Daojun had once severely cheated her and her father.

"Of course not," Chen Dongji hesitated for a long time but still did not speak, "It's just that some words are indeed difficult to say."

Liu Zhina was extremely surprised. "If you have anything you can't say in front of me, just tell me and I will help you analyze it."

"That is to say," Chen Dongji hesitated, and finally revealed his hidden worries, "Wife, have you ever thought about what we should do if we lose?"

"We lost." Liu Zhina was silent for a moment before saying, "We should just keep our tails between our legs in front of their family from now on. We will probably become the so-called side branch."

"If Li You becomes more powerful in the future and is willing to help us," Chen Dongji coughed subconsciously, not daring to look his wife in the eye, "will you be willing to let Yijun be your mistress?"

"Being a mistress?" Liu Zhina understood a little, and was not as angry as Chen Dongji imagined. She just analyzed calmly, "Being a mistress is probably just a cover. How could such a man stop for a woman?"

Liu Zhina laughed twice, "He just wants to use this opportunity to interfere with Sunyang. Maybe if he and Yijun have children in the future, he can legitimately take charge of Sunyang and become the regent."

"Bang!" The glass containing milk fell to the ground, and glass shards shattered all over the floor.

Chen Dongji turned his head suddenly and saw Chen Yajun leaning on the handrail with his shoulders hunched.

"Yejun," Chen Dongji felt guilty, "Dad won't lose."

"It's okay," Chen Yijun shook his head. "If he can be stronger than grandpa in the future, it won't matter if he keeps a low profile."

Watching Chen Yajun leave the stairs without looking back and return to his room on the second floor, Chen Dongji sat down with a dejected look on his face.

"Maybe I'm crazy," Chen Dongji sighed, "How could I have such an idea?"

"When you get to the mountain, there will always be a way out," Liu Zhina smiled and patted Chen Dongji on the shoulder, "If it really doesn't work, we can just be honest and behave ourselves. It's not that difficult to behave ourselves."

Chen Dongji took a look at his wife's expression and knew in his heart that Liu Zhina was just comforting him. After all, the two who fought the most fiercely on weekdays were Liu Zhina and Sun Zhenlai, Chen Rongji's wife.

What's more, thinking about what he had asked Li Youcha to do today, Chen Dongji felt a chill in his heart.

I'm afraid that after the big brother Chen Rongji wins, he won't let them have a good end. Half a month later, although Chen Rongji and Chen Dongji's internal struggle became more and more fierce, there was no mention of it in the news.

"The second and third phases of Kinmen Real Estate's project have been completed and are currently being pre-sold!"

"Park Tae-soo, the star prosecutor of the Southern District Prosecutors Office of Seoul, was transferred to the General Affairs Department for solving two murder cases"

"Shun Yang Semiconductor becomes independent from Shun Yang Group and changes its name to Future Electronics"

"Shun Yang Group Chairman Chen Yangzhe was hospitalized due to illness"

"The final trial of Jinmen Group Executive Director Li Zhongjiu ended, and his sentence was reduced to one year"

Li You hasn't been to the Kinmen Group's office for quite a long time. He spends most of his time in the Kinmen Real Estate Building.

Although I haven't been here for a long time, the whole office is still as clean as new.

Li You leaned back in his chair and flipped through the newspapers of the past few days one by one. "There really is no news about the internal strife in Shunyang Group."

An Shangjiu stood aside with his head down, "Ever since Chen Dongji came to see Chairman Nim half a month ago, the two brothers of Shunyang Group have been killing each other, but they have not let the news leak out."

"On the contrary, my name appeared in these newspapers," Li You put the newspapers back on the table. His name was mentioned in all five newspapers.

There was even news that he was present when Chen Yangzhe was admitted to the hospital.

An Shangjiu smiled bitterly and said, "If President Nim doesn't want to, I can notify those newspapers."

Li You thought about it for a while, and finally shook his head, "Let them be. White is Black's best armor, and Black is White's fastest sword."

The spacious and bright office of the Grand National Party is filled with calm tones, from the dark sandalwood desks to the leather chairs, all exuding an air of authority.

There are piles of documents and newspapers scattered on the desk, ranging from international relations to domestic policies, all of which reflect the heavy workload and responsibilities of the desk owner.

As the leader of the Jeonju Lee family, Lee Lianchang has been lying dormant and accumulating strength, waiting for the next election since his defeat in the presidential election against Kim Min-jung the year before last.

Li Lianchang put down the newspaper and said, "It seems that this young man from the Jeonju Li family is becoming more and more outstanding."

The secretary next to him smiled and said, "After all, we are from the same school as you, so it's normal for us to be more outstanding."

"I think it's time to meet him," Li Lianchang smiled with some satisfaction, "This is a rare helper who has been on my side since the beginning."

"Congressman Nim," the secretary was a little confused, "Didn't you say it was still early?"

"That was what we said before," Li Lianchang pointed his finger at the newspaper on the table, "He has now obtained control of Shunyang Semiconductor, which should be Future Electronics. He has enough power to enter the center of the stage."

"Isn't Chen Daojun in control of Future Electronics?"

"Chen Daojun?" Li Lianchang shook his head after hearing what his secretary said, "Chen Daojun is only temporary. If Li You can get half, he can get more."

"No one can stop his rise anymore."

"It's all thanks to the support of Congressman Nim," the secretary bent over and complimented with a smile.

"You." Li Lianchang smiled and shook his head at him. Although he knew that he could not help Li You much, who doesn't want to hear good words?

Li Lianchang looked at the photo of Li You and Chen Daojun in the newspaper and fell into deep thought.

Various forces have been rooted in Seoul for two or three decades. Their names and personnel have been changing, but they always exist.

For example, it changed from the Beimen Gang to the Peking University Sect, and later transformed into the Peking University Security Company.

This is just one example. In fact, large and small forces always exist. When they just merged to form the Kinmen Group, many people thought it was just a gimmick and they would eventually fall apart.

After all, no one at the top looks up to them.

But as Shi Dongchu laid the foundation for the Kinmen Group and worked tirelessly, the Kinmen Group was gradually molded into a serious enterprise.

When people thought that they should develop slowly and become a stable medium-sized enterprise, Vice President Li You suddenly appeared and installed the best engine for Kinmen Group.

Before the emergence of the Kinmen Group, no one had ever known how much power these grassroots underworld forces could unleash when they were truly combined together.

Today, Li You has already established the trend.

Li Lianchang thought that with his gradual support, Li You would become an important helper in his election year.

But now, Li You seemed to be climbing too fast, and he could no longer put on airs.

The former subordinate was promoted quickly because of some things and then became the boss.

Although Li Lianchang had never experienced such a thing himself, he had seen it in official circles.

Since there is no way to recruit younger brothers, you should first give them to your friends on an equal footing.
