Second Senior Brother

Chapter 61 Those Who Venture Out Must Uphold Their Word

He strode directly to Chen Fan's side, like a humble servant, bowing his head and saying respectfully, "I have not failed my mission. My subordinates found Ms. Li Xiuying by West Lake and have safely escorted her home."

"Mm, I know!"

Chen Fan said indifferently.

This scene, falling into the eyes of Zheng Ge and others, immediately stirred up a storm in their hearts.

They looked at Chen Fan with curious eyes, trying to guess his identity.

They had followed Jiang Tiansheng for so many years, and they had never seen him show such respect to anyone. Even when facing Director Zhou, who ranked first in Shengshi Group, he was far from this. This was a respect from the bottom of his heart!

Who was this young man, and what was his identity?

However, at this moment, despite their intense curiosity, no one dared to ask. They could only bury this curiosity deep in their hearts.

Jiang Tiansheng, however, paid no mind to his subordinates' thoughts. All his attention was on Chen Fan.

Just as he was about to say something more, he was directly interrupted by Chen Fan. Da Feng Novel Network

"I know, you did a good job this time." Chen Fan nodded with satisfaction.

Hearing this, Jiang Tiansheng was instantly overjoyed!

Being able to receive confirmation from Mr. Long was definitely an incredibly glorious matter.

This also meant that he was one step closer to the position of Chairman of Shengshi Group.

Chen Fan, as if seeing through Jiang Tiansheng's thoughts, directly spoke a sentence that greatly encouraged and moved him.

"You were thoughtful this time. I will inform Han Shuying to let you take over as Chairman of Shengshi Group."

"As for your past misdeeds, I will also arrange for someone to erase them all for you."

To him, Shengshi Group was merely a tiny part of his many enterprises, even insignificant.

It didn't matter who was the chairman.

However, among the nine chairmen of Shengshi Group, although Jiang Tiansheng's background was not prominent, his capability in handling matters was first-class.

Entrusting Shengshi Group to his management was not a bad idea!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Tiansheng almost wept with joy.

He was born from humble beginnings. In his youth, he had a heart that longed to serve his country and educate people.

Unfortunately, although he had achieved excellent results in the imperial examinations back then, someone impersonated him, cutting off his path to further education. To survive, he entered society and was gradually drawn into the underworld.

After more than ten years of hard work, he had carved out a name for himself in the underworld.

But he had always yearned to legitimize himself, to become a respectable entrepreneur. This was why he had spared no effort and exhausted half of his savings to become one of the nine directors of Shengshi Group.

Yet, even so, he could not completely legitimize himself.

His past, his unsavory records, had become a fishbone stuck in his throat.

Now, Mr. Long acknowledged his identity and promised to erase his dark past. To him, this was a grace of rebirth.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen!"

Jiang Tiansheng, overwhelmed with emotion, was about to kneel before Chen Fan, but Chen Fan stopped him.

"No need for formalities. From now on, conduct yourself well and do what you should do."

"Yes!"

Jiang Tiansheng responded with great excitement.

Chen Fan grunted softly and paid no further attention to Jiang Tiansheng, turning his gaze towards Su Yingxue.

He saw Su Yingxue still hugging her mother tightly, immersed in the immense joy of finding her mother, completely unaware of what had just transpired.

Su Yingxue had just managed to comfort her mother when Li Xiuying suddenly cried out in terror again.

"Yingxue, hurry and leave, leave me... don't worry about me..."

"Mom, Mom, what's wrong?"

Su Yingxue immediately panicked.

Although her mother suffered from intermittent mental health issues, she had been fine just moments ago. Why was she acting up again suddenly?

But before she could think further, Li Xiuying suddenly fainted.

She quickly supported her mother, feeling at a loss. She could only look back at Chen Fan, her face filled with apology, "Brother Chen, this..."

"Let's get Auntie to the hospital first!"

Chen Fan said quickly, stepping forward and taking Li Xiuying from Su Yingxue's arms.

Su Yingxue hurried to follow.

Although she was reluctant to owe Chen Fan another favor, in this situation, she had no choice.

However, as Chen Fan passed by Jiang Tiansheng, he paused briefly, giving him a meaningful glance.

The latter immediately understood that Chen Fan wanted him to handle the matter of Li Yuqin and Li Laoqi.

Jiang Tiansheng was clear about his position: he wanted to cling to Mr. Long's coattails and satisfy him.

Only then could he secure his position as Chairman of Shengshi Group and reach even greater heights in the future!

After Chen Fan's figure disappeared down the corridor, Jiang Tiansheng immediately turned back and looked at Li Yuqin, who was lying on the ground like a puddle of mud.

He walked to Li Yuqin's side, squatted down, and said slowly, "May I ask, how much rent do Miss Su Yingxue and her mother still owe you?"

Jiang Tiansheng's words were polite, but to Li Yuqin, they were like a thunderclap, scaring her so much that she trembled all over.

"That... that... they are friends of Master Jiang, a small amount of money... let it go, hehe..."

Li Yuqin forced a smile, but it looked more unsightly than crying.

Jiang Tiansheng gently shook his head. "No, promises must be kept. Debts must be repaid. The rent Miss Su Yingxue owes you, I, Jiang Tiansheng, will pay you. Not a single penny less."

"Really... you really don't need to, Master Jiang, you are magnanimous, please spare me!"

Li Yuqin's voice was laced with tears.

Who in the entire Hangjiang dared to ask Jiang Tiansheng for money?

Did they not want to live?

Few people who had accepted money from Jiang Tiansheng had a good end.

Jiang Tiansheng looked at Li Yuqin, who was almost scared to death, and gently shook his head. He reached into his pocket, pulled out a stack of cash, and without counting, threw it directly onto Li Yuqin.

"This should be enough!"

After speaking, Jiang Tiansheng stood up.

Li Yuqin's heart turned cold. She thought Jiang Tiansheng was going to attack her and quickly kowtowed and begged, "Master Jiang, spare my life, spare my life! I'll never dare again, never again!"

"You, conduct yourself with discretion!"

Jiang Tiansheng no longer paid attention to her. He stood up, waved his hand at his subordinates, and left with a large group of people.

Only after Jiang Tiansheng and his group had completely left the dormitory building did Li Yuqin and Li Laoqi, the siblings, dare to stop.

They looked at each other, and saw deep fear in each other's eyes.

This was a fear that penetrated their very souls, a memory that would be indelible for the rest of their lives.

"Hoo!"

The two of them collapsed onto the ground, their backs completely drenched in sweat.
