949: Chapter 950: The Most Honored Guest 949: Chapter 950: The Most Honored Guest “No matter what, remember this: you’re only allowed to succeed, not fail.

Otherwise, our lives are at risk!”

Liu Tong said again.

“Understood, Dad!”

Liu Xun left with the Liu Family’s experts.

At that time, in the office building of Xinmeng Group’s Xiongcheng branch located in the Chongzhi District, Chairman Jiang Meng was discussing company matters with Manager Xiao Yulan.

Suddenly, the receptionist called in, saying that Liu Xun, the Young Master of the Liu Family from Chongwu District, requested an audience.

His attitude was quite polite!

“That Liu Family has been developing quite well in Xiongcheng lately.

If we can collaborate with them, it would benefit our business greatly.”

After thinking it over, Jiang Meng said, “Let them come up.”

Xinmeng Group actually had plans for expansion in the Chongwu District, but those plans had nearly ground to a halt due to some mysterious person’s interference.

This was certainly not good news.

It had to be resolved as soon as possible.

If the Liu Family could lend a hand, that would be ideal.

The moment Liu Xun saw Jiang Meng, his eyes widened.

It took him a moment before he said, “Chairman Jiang Meng, my father has prepared a banquet and would like to invite you over.”

“Does your father need something from me?”

Jiang Meng asked.

“Nothing in particular, he just wants to invite you for a meal, and hopes you will honor us with your presence!”

Liu Xun said with a smile, “I assume Chairman Jiang won’t refuse, right?

After all, you still have business to conduct in Chongwu District; you can’t simply decline to give my father any face.”

This was already a threat.

Although his tone was still decent, the underlying threat in his words made Jiang Meng very uncomfortable.

“What time?”

Jiang Meng asked.

“Tonight at eight o’clock, please be punctual for the appointment!”

Liu Xun said.

“Tonight, huh?

I’m afraid tonight won’t work.”

Jiang Meng shook her head, “My husband doesn’t like it when I go out for drinks at night.”

“Jiang Meng, don’t be ungrateful when I’m speaking to you nicely.

You actually dare to refuse me?”

Liu Xun’s face darkened.

Was Jiang Meng really using that live-in son-in-law as a shield?

What was this?

Hearing this, Jiang Meng became even more displeased.

“Don’t I even have the right to refuse?”

Jiang Meng said.

“Of course not!”

Liu Xun replied coldly, “You should go out and ask around; my Liu Family is now the number one family in Xiongcheng, even the Li Family wouldn’t dare to oppose us.

Your Xinmeng Group is only surviving thanks to the Li Family.

That tree won’t stand forever; it’s bound to be toppled sooner or later!”

Liu Xun was now completely exuding his arrogance and dominance.

That was just his nature, he had been slightly more restrained after hitting a snag at the Li Family, but Lin Yu’s entry into the picture had brought out his true character once again.

With Young Master Yu’s backing, Liu Xun felt that there was nobody in Xiongcheng City who dared to provoke the Liu Family.

But Jiang Meng had the gall to refuse him, which was simply unforgivable.

“Don’t think you’re invulnerable just because you’re the Chairman of Xinmeng Group; if you offend our family, I can make you a beggar in an instant!”

Liu Xun said coldly, “Remember, dress up and make yourself look nice tonight; there will be a distinguished guest, and you better not mess things up!”

In Liu Xun’s eyes, with the status and power of the Liu Family, whoever they invited to a banquet had to attend.

“Heh, I’ve already said, no guest is more important than my husband!”

Jiang Meng said with a faint smile, “Besides, your attitude makes me rather unhappy.

Please leave.”

Liu Xun replied coldly, “Jiang Meng, you better not refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit.

What’s your husband anyway?

He’s just a fake family head, a son-in-law who moved in with his wife’s family.

How can he compare to our distinguished guest?

Our guest is so prestigious that you can’t afford to offend him.

If you just behave, you still have a way out, but if you don’t, you’ll end up like those hundreds of families in Xiongcheng City.”

“Ren Jing, show the guest out!”

Jiang Meng was angry.

To dare to speak badly of her husband was something no one, regardless of who they were, could get away with!

Moreover, she wasn’t afraid of anyone.

Because her husband had said that she just needed to focus on doing business, and as for those vermin lurking in the filthy corners, he would take care of them.

Jiang Meng firmly believed in Xiao Chen’s words.

“Jiang Meng, don’t be ungrateful.

If you knew who our esteemed guest is, you wouldn’t dare to be so rude–you’re practically seeking death!”

Liu Xun said coldly.

“Get lost!”

Before Ren Jing could speak, Hua Yujue walked in from outside.

He grabbed Liu Xun by the collar and dragged him out.

To win Jiang Meng’s favor, he needed to do something that showed he was a real man.

He had seen plenty of scum like Liu Xun.

Liu Xun was thrown out by Hua Yujue.

His bodyguards were all downstairs and hadn’t come up, so he didn’t dare to cause any more trouble and left with his tail between his legs.

“Young Master Xun, should we just storm in now?”

A bodyguard said coldly, “Since the soft approach didn’t work, let’s try the hard way, I don’t believe she won’t comply.”

“Don’t make a move inside the building.”

Liu Xun shook his head and said, “Father specifically warned not to make too big a scene, lest we draw the attention of the Xiao Family.

In the end, she will have to leave the company.

We’ll wait outside and make our move there.”

“Understood!”

Several subordinates nodded in agreement.

“Let’s go, sit in the cafe opposite and take turns keeping watch.”

Liu Xun waved his hand, making the decision.

His father had said that they had to get this done no matter what, otherwise Young Master Yu would be angry, and their status in his eyes would be greatly diminished.

The future wouldn’t be easy for them.

At five o’clock, Jiang Meng left work on time.

Except for special circumstances, Xinmeng Group normally followed a nine-to-five schedule.

Even if overtime was required, they would provide much higher wages than usual.

This was Xiao Chen’s requirement because he didn’t want Jiang Meng to work late.

He didn’t object to his wife having career ambitions, but she absolutely couldn’t exhaust herself.

Especially for women, getting too tired could lead to premature aging.

Work was important, but life needed to be exciting too.

However, as soon as Jiang Meng got into the car, a call from the Fang Family came through.

It was Fang Enze.

“Teacher, do you need something?”

Jiang Meng asked.

“Jiang Meng, the way you say that…

can’t I call you if I don’t have other business?

Come over to the Fang Family for a visit now that you’re off work.

You were far away in Blue Sea before, but now that we’re both in Xiongcheng City, we should definitely spend time together,” Fang Enze said with a laugh, his tone very kind.

Jiang Meng thought for a moment and replied, “Alright, but I have to call my husband first.”

“Of course, of course.

But Jiang Meng, don’t you have your own life?

Does that man really need to control everything?” Fang Enze sounded somewhat displeased.

“I like it this way.

If he stopped caring for me, I’d actually feel uncomfortable all over,” Jiang Meng laughed.

This angered Fang Enze even more.

His current goal was to drive a wedge between Jiang Meng and Xiao Chen, but it seemed the plan wasn’t going smoothly at all.

“Anyway, make sure you come,” Fang Enze said.

“Remember to bring a few more bodyguards.

It’s not safe out there!”

Fang Enze didn’t mention Hua Yujue, but with this hint, he believed Jiang Meng would understand.

“Sister-in-law, I’ll lend you Hua Hua, and with Sister Ren Jing to protect you, I’ll feel at ease,” Xiao Yulan quickly responded.

There wasn’t much danger on her end since Shi Fanling had returned.

She didn’t dare refuse a decision made by Xiao Chen.
