Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1187: Chapter 1161: The Final Warning

The workplace has its ”rules”.

Since everyone is dressed in suits and ties, sitting in a room with a thick business atmosphere, talking about money-related matters.

Then actions must follow rules, norms, and measure.

Behavior must also be civilized.

Even if behind the scenes the fight is life and death, upon meeting face to face, at most it’s just some cold words and expressions, and at the limit, getting overly emotional, slamming the table, and yelling a couple of times is pretty extreme.

At the very least, that’s what Wu Dazun thought.

But now, he had his eyes opened.

Bai Xiaosheng had taught him a vivid lesson with actions, of what it means to have ”all sorts of birds in a big forest”...

He started by hitting his own son, from side to side delivered four loud slaps, the sound of the smacks ringing out, eyeing Wu Yangwei’s bleeding from his nose and mouth, and even threatening to ”wipe out” the entire Wu Family—not just one or two of the family’s enterprises, but all of them!

This is simply... a mortal grudge! Is it worth it?

The most chilling part was how Bai Xiaosheng said it so casually, as if it was a trivial matter.

As if he was generous enough to come and give a warning, rather than silently stabbing them in the back.

To show his utmost benevolence.

Wu Dazun felt the hair on his back stand up.

As for Wu Yangwei, not only was he terrified, but seeing that even his father seemed to be scared, his heart instantly became filled with extreme dread.

It seems he has provoked an existence he shouldn’t have.

Not just them, even Lin Ke, Lin Weiwei, and Lei Ying all felt a sense of suffocation.

The toughness and sternness displayed by Bai Xiaosheng also made the three of them feel a sense of awe.

”Senior Affairs Officer Sheng, let me take the fall for that matter alone. I can accept losing a job. Even if there are any prison disasters, I will not implicate you,” Lin Ke stood, looking mockingly at the Wu Family, ”But after I go in, I hope you will take care of my family, as well as—”

”Crush those bastards who hurt me. All of them!”

Lin Ke had been holding in a stomach full of anger, and at this moment, it was a relief to let it out.

Of course, she knew that Bai Xiaosheng was just putting on a show and would never ”sacrifice” himself.

However, Lin Ke’s words of ”resignation” made the expressions of the Wu Family change drastically.

They thought that Bai Xiaosheng had really taken care of Lin Ke’s worries for the future and really let her take on everything.

If it was them, they could do it.

That’s why, by their own measure, they also believed that Bai Xiaosheng could do it!

”Miss Lin, don’t be too impulsive, it hasn’t reached that point yet!”

Wu Dazun urgently said to Lin Ke, even stuttering a bit.

Keep in mind, Wu Dazun is the helmsman of the Wu Family!

Weathered storms, over fifty years old!

When has he ever shown this side of himself, not to mention strangers, even Pi Dalei had never seen it, he was immediately dumbstruck.

Wu Dazun, scared?

Yes.

Now, Wu Dazun was interpreting a word with a very low posture, a word that should never appear on him—fear.

To instill fear in Wu Dazun, the opponent must have the power to overwhelm the Wu Family and not be afraid to use that power.

What Bai Xiaosheng showed, was exactly those two aspects.

And there was Lin Ke’s ”resolute march to death”!

Together, it’s really too frightening.

Businessmen are best at weighing pros and cons, only to earn greater benefits, is it worth it to gamble with their very foundation?

Wu Dazun is 120% unwilling!

Especially after Lin Ke, who was described by Cheng Liu as an irreplaceable friend to Bai Xiaosheng, expressed such a stance, Bai Xiaosheng didn’t stop her but instead showed an ”appreciative” look, making Wu Dazun even more uneasy.

”I always say that when you’re in business, there are no such things as loyalties, how much is that stuff worth!” Wu Dazun cursed inwardly.

At the same time, he immensely regretted.

Why did he agree to join in on Shen Peishen’s side!

But, it seems a bit late to back out now!

Shen Peishen’s side won’t let the Wu Family off either, even if the accounts are settled after the autumn, they can’t stand it bit by bit!

In a moment, Wu Dazun was in a dilemma, and could only look to Bai Xiaosheng, squeezing out a smile, ”Senior Affairs Officer Sheng, my Wu Family absolutely doesn’t dare to sincerely be your enemy. This matter, it, it might be a misunderstanding...”

Misunderstanding?

Wu Dazun was also desperate, telling barefaced lies.

Unintentionally, he glanced at Pi Dalei beside him and pointed immediately, ”From beginning to end, it was this Pi Dalei who was involved... Pi Dalei, tell me, isn’t there a misunderstanding here!”

Pi Dalei was dumbfounded.

You don’t set up your own relatives like this.

It was all your orders, I’ve been working like an ox and a horse... as a person, one has to have a conscience!

”Pi Dalei, you’ve got some nerve, actually framing Officer Lin Ke; don’t you know what media people value most, fairness, integrity! I think you’re regressing with age!”

Wu Dazun scolded Pi Dalei.

Pi Dalei was in a tight spot and had no choice but to listen in silence.

Wu Dazun was deflecting Bai Xiaosheng’s anger, planning to have a good talk with him later to help him cool off.

As long as he could muddle through this meeting, he would call Cheng Liu.

Even if it meant asking for less benefit, he had to pull the Wu Family out of the spotlight!

He couldn’t let the Wu Family switch from being supporters to main attackers, becoming cannon fodder to attract Bai Xiaosheng’s rage!

What Wu Dazun was thinking was: You all can fight however you like; I’m just here to lend a hand. If things get too serious, I’m not playing!

”Teaching a lesson to our own people should be done behind closed doors. Since Mr. Wu wants to handle things privately, I will take my leave.” Bai Xiaosheng stood up, his voice neither cold nor warm, ”Today! Before noon, I want to see the Wu Family’s sincerity. By evening, I hope your family withdraws from this vortex! Otherwise—”

Bai Xiaosheng gave Wu Dazun a smile.

”Just pretend I was never here!”

That amiable smile was simply terrifying.

Wu Dazun was taken aback.

Seeing Bai Xiaosheng about to leave, Wu Dazun naturally did his utmost to retain him.

But Bai Xiaosheng didn’t hesitate and walked out the door, followed closely by Officer Lin Ke, Lin Weiwei, and Lei Ying.

Wu Dazun had no choice but to escort them to the elevator, while the employees of Wu Media Group were utterly astonished. They couldn’t figure out who these people were, for their own boss to be so attentive.

Bai Xiaosheng came in a hurry and left in a hurry.

Altogether, the visit lasted less than half an hour.

Watching the closing elevator doors, Wu Dazun felt somewhat dazed.

”Was Bai Xiaosheng giving me an ultimatum just now?” Wu Dazun muttered to himself.

...

After Bai Xiaosheng and the others left the building and got into the car, Officer Lin Ke could no longer hold back.

”Holy crap, Bai Xiaosheng, Senior Affairs Officer Sheng! I didn’t expect that when you said you’d snatch the headlines, you meant across the entire net, pushing down the heat on this issue. I thought you were going to spin the situation to our advantage!”

”Those several new trending topics... Wow, Zunbai Zhisheng and Shengsheng International each have one, Zhongjing has one, and two come from Tengyun—did you arrange all of these?!”

”And, did we come today specifically to smack down the Wu Family’s arrogance?”

”I think Wu Dazun is truly frightened. What’s your purpose in doing this?”

”What are we going to do next?”

...

It’s no wonder Officer Lin Ke let out many exclamations and asked so many questions.

Even Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying wanted to know.

The dominating aura that Bai Xiaosheng had exuded had already dissipated.

After Officer Lin Ke finished speaking, Bai Xiaosheng continued to smile and leisurely cleaned his ears.

”Actually, I came here this time just to give Wu Yangwei a thorough thrashing and to scold Wu Dazun. That’s all.”

Bai Xiaosheng said earnestly.

Officer Lin Ke was full of disbelief.

”Of course, it was also important to show my unreasonable side and let the people from the Wu Family see my capabilities,” Bai Xiaosheng said.

Seeing that all three of them wanted to know his thoughts, Bai Xiaosheng felt it was indecent to remain secretive and suddenly smiled.

”Those trending topics were created by some friends.”

”Shen Peishen’s strongest weapon is public opinion across the entire network; so we need to drain their momentum and cool them off!”

”Making a few trending topics is a minor matter, not worth mentioning.”

A minor matter?

Casually creating five or six trending news topics overnight on the entire net, not worth mentioning?

Officer Lin Ke rolled her eyes at Bai Xiaosheng.

However, deep down, she greatly admired Bai Xiaosheng’s prowess and even harbored a slight adoration.

Bai Xiaosheng continued—

”On Shen Peishen’s side, they used their own people, which was overexposing and had many disadvantages, so they reluctantly used an outsider. That actually became a breakthrough point for us! We really should thank Mr. Shen for that!”

”As for the Wu Family, we’re now in a society ruled by law. Shouting about violence and threats is just for private satisfaction; of course, I couldn’t really wipe out the Wu Family. I’m not some fierce flood beast, and even if I had the capability, I wouldn’t misuse it.”

”I’m just making the Wu Family anxious and fearful, then we’ll press hard to frighten them, to make them want to retreat.”

”If they further conflict with Shen Peishen’s side, that would be even better! The more chaos, the more opportunities we have to counterattack!”

Bai Xiaosheng said a lot in one breath, and Officer Lin Ke and the others listened carefully without missing a word.

”Next, I’m really going to take action against the Wu Family, giving them some painfully instructive lessons, to prompt them to make a decision!”

Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes shimmered slightly.

”Also, as I said yesterday, in the early stages of our response, we planted three spies.”

”Now, it’s time to use them!”

”In one day, I want to break the deadlock within a day!”
