Chapter 1693: The fish and the clams fight, and the fisherman benefits

After Cheng Feng returned to Beijing, several old friends met at the old bar to welcome him.

Lin Xia, Wu Di, Shi Xiaomeng and others sat together, but the atmosphere was a little subtle.

Lin Xia raised her glass, looked at Cheng Feng with a smile and said, "Cheng Feng, welcome back! But I have some news to tell you. Shen Bing and Su Ning are very happy after their marriage, and Su Ning treats her very well."

Cheng Feng's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, and he forced a smile on his face, "Really? That's good."

"Cheng Feng, don't be sad. Shen Bing can find happiness, and we should be happy for her."

"I know, I just... feel a little sad."

Wu Di, who was standing by, patted Cheng Feng on the shoulder and consoled him, saying, "Cheng Feng, you can't force relationships. You still have friends like us, so don't dwell on it."

"Ah."

Shi Xiaomeng sat aside, drinking silently without any interruption.

I felt that I had played an ignominious role in this emotional entanglement, and I felt complicated.

During a business dinner at this time, Wu Mei unexpectedly met Yang Zixuan.

The two sat in the corner and chatted frankly.

"Zi Xi, long time no see! How are you and Wu Di... now?" Wu Mei asked tentatively.

Yang Zixi gave a bitter smile, with a hint of helplessness in her tone, "Wu Di and I are still the same, breaking up and getting back together, tangled up. He treats me very well, but I always feel like something is missing between us."

"It's really hard to explain matters of the heart, but Wu Di is a good man, and he's worth cherishing."

"I know, but I always feel like there's something between us. Perhaps, we're not ready yet."

"Zi Xi, don't think too much. Just let nature take its course. Time will tell."

After the two exchanged contact information, they agreed to keep in touch in the future.

Yang Zixuan looked at Wu Mei's leaving back, feeling complicated.

Then Cheng Feng came to the prison in a daze to visit Cheng Shengen.

The father and son looked at each other through the glass. There was a hint of fatigue on Cheng Shengen's face, but his eyes were still firm.

"Dad, I'm here to see you." Cheng Feng said in a low voice, his voice a little choked.

Cheng Shengen nodded, with a hint of relief in his tone, "Cheng Feng, you have grown up. Seeing you like this now, I am relieved."

Cheng Feng clenched his fists, feeling guilty. "Dad, I'm sorry! I was ignorant before and made you worry."

"Cheng Feng, let the past be the past! What you need to do now is to manage your life well and don't let me down."

Cheng Feng took a deep breath and said firmly, "Dad, don't worry! I will use the money you left me to take back Dade Group. I won't let your sacrifice be in vain."

"Cheng Feng, remember! You must be careful of Liang Junzheng and Shi Xiaomeng. They won't let you go easily."

"Dad, I know! I'll be careful."

After the visit, Cheng Feng walked out of the prison, looked up at the sky, and felt relieved.

He knew that the responsibility on his shoulders was even heavier.

……

After Wu Mei resigned from the company, Wu Di followed suit and decided to start a business with Cheng Feng.

Wu Mei found Wu Di, with a hint of helplessness in her tone, "Wu Di, have you really decided to do something with Cheng Feng? His situation is not optimistic."

Wu Di nodded, his tone firm, "Wu Mei, Cheng Feng is my friend, I can't abandon him at this time. Besides, I believe he can turn the tables."

Wu Mei sighed, her tone carrying a hint of meaning. "Wu Di, you're too naive. Suning's ambitions are much greater than you imagine. He's already planning to swallow up the Dade Group. You're no match for him."

Wu Di was stunned for a moment. "Wu Mei, I know you chose Suning. But I believe Cheng Feng will not give up easily."

Wu Mei did not try to persuade him anymore, but just watched Wu Di leave silently.

She knew that she had chosen another path.

In order to turn the tables in the special board meeting, Cheng Feng approached the major shareholders of Dade Group one by one and even knelt down to ask for help.

He went to the office of a major shareholder and said with a hint of pleading in his tone, "Mr. Wang, please help me. Dade Group is my father's hard work. I can't watch it fall into the hands of others."

Mr. Wang looked at Cheng Feng with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "Cheng Feng, I understand how you feel. But Liang Junzheng and Shi Xiaomeng already control the majority of the shares. There's nothing we can do."

Cheng Feng clenched his fists, his tone filled with determination, "Boss Wang, as long as you are willing to support me, I will do my best to preserve Dade Group."

President Wang sighed and finally nodded. "Okay, I will support you at the shareholders' meeting. But Cheng Feng, you have to be mentally prepared. This road won't be easy."

"Thank you, Mr. Wang! I have an idea."

Lin Xia found Shao Huayang, with a hint of anxiety in her tone, "Shao Huayang, Cheng Feng is in a very dangerous situation now, can you help him?"

Shao Huayang smiled, his tone carrying a hint of deep meaning, "Lin Xia, don't worry! I'm already helping Cheng Feng acquire shares of Dade Group. As long as we can secure enough shares, we'll have a chance to turn things around."

Lin Xia nodded, feeling grateful. "Shao Huayang, thank you! Cheng Feng is so lucky to have a friend like you."

"Lin Xia, don't be so polite. I'm helping Cheng Feng for you."

Lin Xia was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head, a blush appearing on her face.

……

Shi Xiaomeng invited Wu Di and Fei Si to visit his new house.

He pointed at the luxurious furniture in the room, and said with a hint of boasting, "Look, I carefully selected these. How about it? Not bad, right?"

Wu Di and Fei Si nodded, but there was not much envy on their faces.

Shi Xiaomeng noticed their indifference and felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.

He whispered, "Wu Di, Fei Si, do you think I've changed?"

Wu Di sighed, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "Xiao Meng, you have indeed changed. In the past, you wouldn't care so much about these external things."

Shi Xiaomeng laughed bitterly, a hint of self-mockery in his tone, "Yes, I have changed. But what have I gained? Even you good brothers are on Cheng Feng's side."

Fei Si patted Shi Xiaomeng's shoulder, and said with a hint of comfort, "Xiao Meng, don't think too much. We are still friends."

Shi Xiaomeng shook his head, feeling a sense of loss.

He knew that he had lost too much.

……

Wu Wei discovered that Shao Huayang and Cheng Feng were buying a large number of Dade Group's stocks, and immediately found Wu Di to warn him.

"Wu Di, don't get too deeply involved in the Dade Group's equity. This struggle is not something you and I can participate in."

"Brother, I know you are doing this for my own good. But Cheng Feng is my friend, I can't just stand by and watch."

"Wu Di, you are too naive. This struggle is far more complicated than you think. Shao Huayang and Cheng Feng's plan may not succeed."

Wu Di nodded, feeling a complicated feeling in his heart. He knew that Wu Wei's words were not without reason, but he still chose to believe Cheng Feng.

Before the shareholders' meeting, there was a 0.1% gap between the shares held by Cheng Feng and Liang Junzheng.

Cheng Feng and Shao Huayang decided to give it a try at the shareholders' meeting.

At the meeting, Cheng Feng successfully conquered the small and medium shareholders present and won their support with his thorough preparation and sincere attitude.

“Dear shareholders, Dade Group is my father’s hard work and the common cause of all of us.

I hope everyone can support me and safeguard the future of Dade Group."

Cheng Feng's voice was firm and powerful, winning applause from the shareholders present.

At the same time, Suning secretly contacted Wu Wei, trying to persuade him to transfer his shares to himself.

Wu Mei also persuaded, "Wu Wei, as long as you transfer your shares to Suning, we can completely control Dade Group."

Wu Wei sneered, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "Suning, do you think I will hand over the shares to you so easily?"

Su Ning smiled, his tone carrying a hint of meaning, "Wu Wei, you are a smart man. You should know that you have no chance of winning this fight."

Wu Wei was silent for a moment, then suddenly looked at Su Ning meaningfully, "Okay, I can transfer the shares to you. But I have one condition: give all the shares to Wu Mei, and leave a sum of money to my brother Wu Di."

Su Ning nodded and said, "Wu Wei, you are indeed a smart person. I agree to your request."

"..." At this time, Wu Mei on the side was deeply moved.

After the shareholders' meeting, Cheng Feng successfully retained control of Dade Group.

This battle for shares made Cheng Feng feel the thrill and excitement, and also taught him to grow.

……

At the critical moment when Cheng Feng was about to take back the position of chairman of the company from Liang Junzheng, Shi Xiaomeng was playing tricks behind the scenes and secretly sabotaged Cheng Feng's plan.

After Cheng Feng learned about this, he angrily found Shi Xiaomeng and asked, "Xiaomeng, why did you do this? We used to be brothers!"

Shi Xiaomeng sneered, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "Cheng Feng, don't be naive. We are no longer brothers. I did this just to get revenge on you."

Cheng Feng clenched his fists, his voice trembling, "Revenge me? What did I do to make you hate me so much?"

Shi Xiaomeng looked at him coldly, with a hint of resentment in his tone, "Cheng Feng, your father has left me with nothing, and now it's my turn to take revenge on you. Did you know? The evidence that led to your father's imprisonment was all collected by Wu Wei. And Wu Wei is now the largest shareholder of Dade Group."

Cheng Feng was stunned, feeling shocked and angry.

He didn't expect that Wu Wei, whom he had always trusted, would stab him in the back.

He mistakenly thought that the brothers Wu Di and Wu Wei were teaming up to play a trick on him.

Cheng Feng found Wu Di and angrily punched him in the face.

"Wu Di, what exactly does your brother Wu Wei want to do? Why does he want to harm my father?"

Wu Di was beaten and staggered back, covering the blood at the corner of his mouth, with a hint of confusion in his tone.

"Cheng Feng, what are you talking about? How could my brother harm your father?"

Cheng Feng sneered, his tone tinged with sarcasm, "Wu Di, don't play dumb. Your brother Wu Wei collected evidence of my father's illegal activities, and now he is the largest shareholder of Dade Group! You two brothers are really good at this!"

Wu Di was stunned, feeling complicated.

He knew that the conflict between Cheng Feng and Wu Wei was irreconcilable.

Wu Di immediately found Wu Wei and asked, "Brother, what did you do? Why did you kill Cheng Feng's father?"

Wu Wei looked at him coldly, with a hint of impatience in his tone, "Wu Di, don't worry about it. Cheng Shengen is breaking the law, I just did what I had to do."

Wu Di clenched his fists, his tone tinged with anger, "Brother, have you even thrown away your conscience for the sake of money? Do you want money or love?"

"Wu Di, you are still too young to understand the cruelty of this world. I want both money and love."

"Brother, you disappoint me so much. Let's end it here between us brothers."

After saying that, Wu Di turned and left.

Wu Wei looked at his back, feeling complicated. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his chest and fell to the ground.

……

Cheng Feng and Wu Di invited Lin Xia and Shao Huayang to dinner to thank them for their help.

During the meal, Lin Xia raised her glass, her tone carrying a hint of regret, "Cheng Feng, Wu Di, even though we didn't succeed, I still wish you all the best."

Cheng Feng nodded, a hint of gratitude in his tone, "Lin Xia, thank you. Without your and Mr. Shao's help, we wouldn't have a chance at all."

Shao Huayang smiled, with a hint of deep meaning in his tone, "Lin Xia, if I divorce now, do we have a chance to be together?"

Lin Xia was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head, a blush appearing on her face.

"Shao Huayang, stop joking."

Shao Huayang shook his head, his tone serious, "Lin Xia, I'm serious. I'll come back to see you when I've dealt with everything."

Lin Xia nodded, feeling complicated.

Then Wu Mei found Wu Di and tried her best to defend Wu Wei, "Wu Di, your brother is not what you think. He must have his reasons for doing this."

Wu Di sneered with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "Wu Mei, stop defending him. My brother has thrown away his conscience for money. I won't trust him anymore."

Wu Mei looked at Wu Di in disappointment and said helplessly, "Wu Di, you are too stubborn! Your principles in life will only make you lose more."

Wu Di shook his head and said firmly, "Wu Mei, I have my principles. I will not give up my bottom line for the sake of profit."

Wu Mei sighed and was completely disappointed with Wu Di.

She turned and left, deciding to formally join forces with Suning and invest in Dade Group.

With Wu Mei's support, Suning successfully became the largest shareholder of Dade Group, holding 33% of the shares.

Then Suning convened the Dade board meeting again and looked at Cheng Feng coldly, "Cheng Feng, Dade Group no longer belongs to your Cheng family. Please leave."

"What? It turns out you were the one manipulating all this behind the scenes." Cheng Feng clenched his fists, feeling angry and unwilling.

"Humph! Idiot! It's too late for you to realize it now."

"..."

Cheng Feng knew that he was powerless to save the situation.

He turned and left, secretly vowing in his heart that he must make a comeback.

Cheng Feng and Wu Di walked out of the gate of Dade Group, looked up at the sky, and felt complicated.

But these two fools knew that the future was still full of thorns and dangers.
