Chapter 552: Chapter 552: Completely Leaving Them Behind This Time

Lin Yue’s complexion changed, and her heart skipped a beat.

She knew that Li Zhen’s words had thoroughly enraged Jiang Chen, and she hurriedly spoke up, ”Young Master, what Li Zhen means is...”

”Shut up!” Jiang Chen barked sharply, casting a glance at Lin Yue. In an instant, Lin Yue felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her entire body so cold that she couldn’t move a muscle!

”The power you hold was given by Grandfather, and now, I’m taking it back.” Jiang Chen looked at Li Zhen and said indifferently, ”From today onwards, you have nothing to do with Jiuzhou Group. You can leave.”

”Young Master, what do you mean by this?” The men’s faces changed one after another, and Li Zhen looked at Jiang Chen with a face full of anger, ”We have worked ourselves to the bone for the old man, are you now trying to drive us out of the group?”

”You’re not misunderstanding.” Jiang Chen spoke calmly, ”I will find someone to replace your positions. You can leave now.”

”You can’t do this!”

”Right, you can’t do this!”

”Who do you think you are? We were chosen by the old man himself, you don’t have the right to fire us!”

Li Zhen and the others shouted in protest.

”Come inside with me. Of course, if you think that without you, I can’t control Jiuzhou Group, then you can also leave,” Jiang Chen said, no longer paying attention to Li Zhen and the others, but ordering Lin Yue, and then turned his head to An Hu, ”See the guests out!”

”Yes!” An Hu responded and stepped forward to face Li Zhen and the others, looking at them coldly, ”Get lost!”

”You...” Li Zhen started to say something, but Jiang Chen had already turned around and walked into the courtyard, with Yan Hu following closely behind.

Lin Yue glanced at Li Zhen and the others, sighed softly, and followed.

”Yan Hu!” As Lin Yue caught up with Jiang Chen and Yan Hu, she heard Jiang Chen’s command, ”Make sure those people stay here permanently.”

”Yes!” A cold light flashed in Yan Hu’s eyes as he turned and walked towards a car. To deal with those people, of course, it couldn’t be done near Dingjing Lake.

Lin Yue’s heart trembled fiercely; she clearly understood what Jiang Chen meant and hurriedly said, ”Young Master, please spare them, they...”

”Can you guarantee that once they leave, they won’t harbor resentment? Can you guarantee they won’t expose Jiuzhou?” Jiang Chen glanced at Lin Yue indifferently.

Lin Yue immediately closed her mouth. How could she possibly guarantee that!

”It has its advantages that Jiuzhou didn’t take action this time; it continues to stay hidden in the dark. However, these people absolutely must not remain. I don’t want to one day be stabbed in the back by my own reserve forces. I, Jiang Chen, do not need ingrates! If you can’t handle this matter well, then you can leave as well,” Jiang Chen said coldly.

After this incident with Gong Lin, Jiang Chen had completely decided to nurture his own forces; and to train his own forces, they needed to be completely under his control. Otherwise, they would become a shackle to his success.

This was something completely intolerable!

Lin Yue’s face turned pale. Although Jiang Chen’s words were directed at Li Zhen and the others, she heard a strong warning for herself in them. She was also very aware that Jiang Chen intentionally demonstrated his martial artist strength in front of her to intimidate her. If she couldn’t satisfy him, she feared that she might end up like Li Zhen and the others, permanently staying here.

Opening the door, Jiang Chen returned to the living room.

In the hall, Gong Jianqiang and others were quietly waiting. After Yan Hu had gone out earlier, Jiang Chen had quickly followed, only greeting Gong Jianqiang before ignoring the others.

Jiang Chen stepped out just to give Gong Jianqiang space to persuade Old Lady Luo. Jiang Chen didn’t want to become too rigid with the Gong Family and Ye Family; after all, they were the families of Gong Lin, Ye Jingyi, and Yè Yùwǎn.

”Jiang Chen, I’m sorry. I apologize to you for the past attitude of the Ye Family!” Upon seeing Jiang Chen enter, Ye Qiongbo rose from his seat to bow to Jiang Chen before Jiang Chen could even sit down, to the shock of everyone from the Ye and Gong families watching him.

Jiang Chen understood in his heart that Ye Qiongbo had come to understand the truth from Gong Jianqiang’s attitude.

Jiang Chen gave a slight nod, sat down on the sofa, and gestured for Lin Yue to sit by Zhou Cheng’s side.

Lin Yue took the seat smoothly.

”Elder Ye, I don’t wish to bring up past issues with the Ye Family anymore. From now on, the Ye Family should stay peaceful. The situation in Dingjing is clear now, and the Ye Family can stand on equal footing with the Gong Family. That is the largest promise I can make,” Jiang Chen spoke indifferently.

Ye Qiongbo’s face lit up with joy, gratefully saying, ”Thank you, thank you! Jian Zhong’s position as Family Head has been revoked by me, and I want to appoint Yu Wan as the Family Head of the Ye Family. What do you think?”

”You should discuss that with Yu Wan. However, her dream is to sing. Even if she becomes the Family Head of the Ye Family, I hope you won’t restrict her,” Jiang Chen said coolly.

Ye Qiongbo hurriedly nodded, ”Definitely not, we will absolutely not restrict her.”

Gong Jianqiang cast a glance at Jiang Chen and stealthily tugged at Old Lady Luo’s sleeve. Although Gong Jianqiang was the Family Head of the Gong Family, in Dingjing, the main affair holder of the Gong Family was still Old Lady Luo. If they wanted to untie the knot in Jiang Chen’s heart regarding the Gong Family in Dingjing, it would require Old Lady Luo to personally apologize.

Old Lady Luo, somewhat unwillingly, said, ”Jiang Chen, I’m sorry.”

Jiang Chen looked up at Old Lady Luo with a hint of sarcasm, ”If the old lady thinks that the treatment I’ve given the Gong Family just now was not good, then she is free to leave.”

”You... don’t think just because you have become a leading figure in Dingjing’s business world you can be arrogant, our Lin Lin has done so much for you...” burst out Old Lady Luo, fuming.

”Mom, Jiang Chen is the direct-line heir and eldest grandson of one of the top eight elite families in Jincheng, the Jiang Family!” Gong Jianqiang couldn’t hold back any longer and blurted out anxiously.

He did not want to say this in front of the Ye Family, knowing full well that Ye Jingyi held the utmost importance in Jiang Chen’s heart. If the Ye Family learned of Jiang Chen’s identity, they might leverage their relationship with Ye Jingyi to potentially develop the Ye Family even better than the Gong Family.

But with Old Lady Luo repeatedly losing her temper, Gong Jianqiang couldn’t stand it anymore. If this upset Jiang Chen, it wasn’t just the Gong Family in Dingjing that would suffer, but the Gong Family in Jincheng might also lose the chance to ride on the coattails of the Jiang Family!

”What? He’s the direct-line heir and eldest grandson of the Jincheng Ye Family?!”

”How could this be possible?!”

”Jiang Chen is that impressive?!”

”This...”

The rest of the Gong and Ye families were all stunned, staring at Jiang Chen with disbelief in their eyes.

Ye Qiongbo let out a long sigh of relief, feeling secretly fortunate:

Thank goodness! Thank goodness I apologized first! Thank goodness I came today! The Ye Family is secure!

Old Lady Luo was dumbfounded, mechanically turning her head to stare at Jiang Chen with a shocked face, mouth agape, but unable to utter a word.
