Unparalleled medical and martial arts skills, saving the CEO's fiancée at the start.

Li Chengwen knew that Master Qiao was trying to sacrifice a pawn to save his horse, so what could he say?

Having been used as a pawn for so long, Li Chengwen still asked, unwilling to give up, "I've put in the effort, even if I haven't achieved anything."

"Third Brother, what about Ye Chen and the Jiang Group...?"

Third Master Qiao suddenly stopped and said without turning his head, "You don't need to worry about this. Ye Chen, I'll handle it personally. Don't worry, come back after things have calmed down."

Meanwhile, in the security department office at the Jiang Group headquarters.

Ye Chen lay on the sofa in the office, crossed his legs, and ate sunflower seeds while scrolling through his phone.

On my phone, the top news headlines on major media platforms are all about Li Chengwen and Wansheng Group, with all sorts of different titles.

The article's comment section erupted in outrage, with netizens demanding severe punishment for the unscrupulous businessmen.

He Jianping gently pushed the door open and came in, grinning from ear to ear: "Brother Ye, this effect is too explosive! Three subsidiaries of Wansheng Group have been shut down for rectification, and several officials involved in the case have been taken away by the Discipline Inspection Commission. Li Chengwen is now a rat crossing the street, and I guess he doesn't even dare to leave the house now."

Ye Chen spat out the sunflower seed shells and nodded casually: "Minister He, this is all expected. We can just sit back and watch the show. There's more to come!"

"Brother Ye, what's our next step? Should we just take down the Wansheng Group?"

"No rush, it's not the right time yet." Ye Chen sat up, his expression becoming more serious. He wanted to eradicate Li Chengwen and the forces behind him completely.

He Jianping looked at Ye Chen with suspicion. He knew Ye Chen was full of ideas and must have arranged everything.

Ye Chen poured He Jianping a cup of tea and said slowly, "Wansheng Group and Li Chengwen are just pawns. The real big fish is yet to come. The Qiao family in the provincial capital is the mastermind. If we don't completely eradicate this root, the Jiang Group will never have peace."

He Jianping gasped, "Brother, the Qiao family is not to be trifled with. They are not on the same level as Li Chengwen. Their influence in the provincial capital is greater than Li Chengwen's in Jiangcheng. Moving against them is like stirring up a hornet's nest."

Ye Chen suddenly laughed, a laugh brimming with confidence: "What's there to be afraid of? We've already stirred up a hornet's nest in Jiangcheng, so what? At worst, I'll just get stung a few more times, it's no big deal. Anyway, I have medicine, as long as I don't die from the stings, it's fine."

He Jianping looked at him speechlessly. This deputy minister's thought process was indeed different from that of a normal person. He was a man who could accomplish great things.

As the two were talking, Ye Chen's phone rang.

He glanced at the caller ID; it was an unfamiliar number. Nevertheless, he pressed the answer button.

"Feed? Hello! Who is this?"

A deep voice came from the other end of the phone: "Ye Chen, this is Qiao San..."

The smile on Ye Chen's face slowly disappeared, and he sat up straight.

He had been waiting for this call for a long time, and it finally came.

"Why is Third Master Qiao calling personally? What brings you here?" Ye Chen's tone was as calm as still water, revealing no emotional fluctuation.

"You were the one who exposed all the things about Li Chengwen online, weren't you? It seems I underestimated you."

"Mr. Qiao is joking. I'm just a village doctor from the mountains. How could I have such great abilities? Mr. Li did something wrong, and the law will punish him. I didn't do anything. I'm a law-abiding citizen."

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, then Third Master Qiao's voice rang out again, carrying a hint of murderous intent: "Ye Chen, you're a smart man. Let's not beat around the bush. Your skills are indeed good, and you're smart enough, but you're still far from enough in front of the Qiao family. Young man, if you know what's good for you, hand over the remaining information, take Jiang Ruoxi and leave Jiangcheng, and we'll call it even."

Ye Chen laughed, a hearty laugh, and said gently, "Since that's the case, Third Master Qiao, then I'll also give you a piece of advice: the Jiang Group is my bottom line. Anyone who touches it will be in trouble. Whether it's the Qiao family in the provincial capital or the Heavenly King himself, I'll take them down one by one, and I'll take down a whole group of them."

"Ye Chen, it seems you're going to have to suffer the consequences. Since you're so eager to play, the Qiao family will play along to the end."

"If Third Master Qiao wants it, then I have no choice but to oblige. However, I'm afraid Third Master might not be able to handle the game..."

Ye Chen used a provocation tactic, deliberately trying to anger Master Qiao and throw him off balance.

"Ye Chen, you'd better watch out. No one in Jiangcheng has ever dared to talk to me like that. The last person to do that is long gone..."

After saying that, Third Master Qiao hung up the phone immediately, indicating that he was truly angry.

Ye Chen tossed his phone onto the table and turned to He Jianping, saying, "Minister He, starting today, strengthen the security of the Jiang Group, especially around the president's office and the Jiang family villa. Increase manpower and patrol 24 hours a day."

Ye Chen suddenly remembered the attack Jiang Ruoxi had suffered in the garage last time, and he specifically instructed He Jianping to strengthen patrols of the underground garage.

He Jianping put away his joking expression and nodded solemnly: "Brother Ye, please rest assured, I will arrange it right away and make sure it's all done perfectly."

Ye Chen walked to the window and looked at the tall buildings in the distance. He knew that the show was about to begin and that Third Master Qiao would definitely not let it go.

The fact that Master Qiao called personally indicates that the other party has come to regard him as a true rival.

The upcoming contest will no longer be the kind of small-scale probing that Li Chengwen did; it may be a real battle.

But he wasn't afraid; the word "fear" didn't exist in Ye Chen's dictionary.

From childhood to adulthood, Ye Chen was taught only one principle by his master: as long as you are not in the wrong, might makes right, and whoever has the bigger fist gets to decide.

Since the Qiao family wants to settle things with their fists, then let them experience what real power is.

This will let the Qiao family know that there are always people more capable than themselves, and that the Qiao family cannot cover up everything.

Ye Chen suddenly remembered that there were still things he hadn't finished, so he returned to his desk, picked up the landline, and dialed the internal line.

"Hey, my dear wife, what would you like to eat tonight? I'll make it for you."

Jiang Ruoxi on the other end of the phone was taken aback: "You still have the mind to cook? Li Chengwen's matter isn't over yet, is it already done with?"

"Hey, honey, eat and drink as you please. Don't take things to heart. A small Wansheng Group and Li Chengwen are nothing," Ye Chen said with a grin.

Ye Chen then added, "Even if the sky falls, your husband will hold it up. What are you afraid of?"

Jiang Ruoxi was silent for a few seconds, then said softly, "I want to eat that hot and sour shredded potatoes from last time."

"Okay, I'll make it for you when I get home from get off work."

Ye Chen hung up the phone, humming a little tune, in a great mood.

Forget about the Qiao family or the Li family, it's all fleeting. Let's feed my wife first.
