Chapter 388: Chapter 389: The Young Master’s Death from Illness
What kind of identity does Su Changfeng have, that he appears so low-key yet feels extremely formidable!
"Alright." Li Chen nodded and said, "I’ll first take Tang Qiulu back to the hotel, you be careful by yourself."
In the chairman’s exclusive office, when Li Wenchen led Su Changfeng to the outside of the office, Li Wenchen opened the door for Su Changfeng: "Mr. Ye, our boss is waiting for you inside."
Su Changfeng nodded slightly and went straight in.
The office was particularly large, with one part as a working area and another part as a reception area; a middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit was sitting on the sofa in the reception area within the office.
He was tall, with clear contours and short hair that looked very spirited, while his white shirt was stretched by muscles, clearly indicating he was someone who exercises regularly, unlike a typical boss.
Generally, those wealthy people live comfortably after acquiring wealth, rarely exercising as he does.
"Brother Ye, it was somewhat rash to have brought you here like this, I hope you don’t mind. My name is Cheng Siwen, just call me Brother Wen." Cheng Siwen said.
"Chairman Cheng, you asked to see me, is there any special matter?" Su Changfeng asked.
Cheng Siwen’s expression changed slightly but quickly returned to normal.
"You are truly an esteemed guest of our group, I definitely need to ensure your safety, because the people you’ve provoked belong to the Jia family from Heaven Island." Cheng Siwen said.
"Thank you for your concern, Chairman Cheng, but Jia Siqi is not someone I care to focus on." Su Changfeng said.
The formidable presence that Su Changfeng displayed had no flaws, surprising Cheng Siwen. What background does this young man have, to be so unrestrained in Heaven Island; does he not understand the power of the Jia family, or is he overestimating his own strength?
"Brother Ye, I believe you have a strong background, but after all, this is Heaven Island; you are not a local, which certainly creates some inconveniences. If there’s anything I can assist with, please let me know." Cheng Siwen said.
"Having such a big boss do things for me, I’m afraid I can’t afford it." Su Changfeng laughed.
Cheng Siwen laughed too, although it’s just meaningless business compliment, nobody dislikes hearing good things.
"Brother Ye, there’s something I’m particularly curious about; I’m not sure if asking will offend you." Cheng Siwen said.
"The fame of Chairman Cheng’s group in Beijing, I have heard quite frequently." Su Changfeng said.
Cheng Siwen raised an eyebrow, indicating he seemed to be a Beijing person.
Beijing with the surname Ye!
Suddenly, Cheng Siwen’s eyes widened; there are many people with the surname Ye in Beijing, but only one Ye family worthy to be mentioned on the table, could it be...
It’s unlikely, since Ye Weijun is currently imprisoned in the Imperial City, he can’t be one of the Ye Family, right?
"Brother Ye, I’ve heard many things about the Ye Family in Beijing, although I’ve never interacted with them; but you..." Cheng Siwen intentionally left the sentence unfinished, hoping to get an answer from Su Changfeng.
If Su Changfeng handles the trouble with Jia Siqi himself, it would be particularly difficult, given this is Heaven Island. Therefore, when Li Wenchen came to him, Su Changfeng had thought of a solution.
The influence of Cheng Siwen in Heaven Island could be quite helpful to him, and revealing that he is from the Ye family isn’t crucial; with Cheng Siwen’s auction reaching various places, gaining such a friend would be especially beneficial.
"You say you’ve heard many rumors about the Ye Family, then you should know the third generation of the Ye Family once had twins." Su Changfeng said.
Cheng Siwen widened his eyes; he indeed knew this, but there were rumors in Beijing that the second son of the Ye Family passed away from illness at a young age, although the Ye Family didn’t outwardly announce this.
Everyone thought the person who died years ago was now standing before him, making Cheng Siwen feel somewhat complex.
If he hadn’t died from illness, then why did the Ye Family do such a thing?
"You... the second Ye family’s second son rumored to have died from illness?" Cheng Siwen’s voice trembled.
Su Changfeng nodded and said, "Everyone believes I’m already dead, but in reality, I was hidden away by the Ye Family because Shangguan Feihong thought I was unworthy to be part of the Ye Family. In her view, only relying on Ye Weijun could bring prominence to the Ye Family."
Cheng Siwen took a deep breath and continued, "I also heard that Shangguan Feihong died; the upper society in Beijing has been spreading this but no one has confirmed it."
"She hanged herself in front of me, as a final consequence of her disdain." Su Changfeng said calmly.
Even indoors, Cheng Siwen instinctively shivered; Shangguan Feihong died, Ye Tian also died, Ye Weijun is in the Imperial City, so now the Ye Family is under his control!
"Mr. Ye, if there’s any instruction, do let me know." Cheng Siwen changed the address from "Brother" to "Mr.", expressing his respect for Su Changfeng.
Cheng Siwen’s group has branches throughout the country, but in Beijing, he is somewhat distant from the real upper-class society there; the Ye Family is something he’s always admired.
Su Changfeng was tapping into the Ye Family’s fame for the first time, as the matters in Rong City had Ji Hong’s intervention previously, but this time was different. He felt particularly uneasy but could not avoid using the Ye Family’s name. If he was on Heaven Island alone, he could deal with the Jia family by himself. But now with Tang Qiulu here, a more secure approach is necessary.
"Right now, knock some sense into the Jia family for me, but do not reveal my true identity; I don’t wish to stir up more trouble." Su Changfeng said.
"Understood." Cheng Siwen said.
"After this matter is settled, once we return to Beijing, I’ll find an opportunity to thank you." Su Changfeng continued.
"Mr. Ye, it’s just a matter of words, you don’t need to take it to heart." Cheng Siwen said.
Su Changfeng smiled; if he wanted something, he wouldn’t take the initiative to seek help. He is a businessman, and businessmen are profit-oriented; Su Changfeng clearly understood his thoughts.
Cheng Siwen Group’s headquarters are in Beijing, so he certainly hopes to be recognized by the real upper-class society there. When there is a chance, bringing him into that circle wouldn’t be difficult and is something definite to work towards.
What does it mean to surpass the Ye Family?
It’s not merely economic advantage; status is also essential.
Su Changfeng will let the people in Beijing, who think he’s dead, see how the young lord of the Ye Family roars in the forest, crushing the Ye Family who once underestimated him.
