At this moment, Wan Shan smiled slightly and spoke softly:

"As for Ye Jingyi, we temporarily can't lay our hands on her, after all, she's within Jiang Chen's villa, but there could be a story to spin regarding Ye Yuwan."

Hearing this, everyone furrowed their brows in confusion.

Fang Zhengshan directly questioned, "Ye Yuwan? If Jiang Chen trusts her enough to make her the president of Yi Chen, shouldn't we assume he trusts her completely? Can we really sway her to our side?"

Wan Shan smiled gently and nodded, "I never said we should sway Ye Yuwan."

"Then..." Everyone became puzzled.

"According to our investigation, there is a certain conflict between Ye Yuwan and the Ye Family, and what we need to take advantage of is this very conflict.

Moreover, Ye Yuwan is very close to Jiang Chen, and Jiang Chen has already married Gong Lin from the Gong Family. If we can stir up some conflict between Gong Lin and Ye Yuwan, do you think Jiang Chen will be able to fully cope with us?

If there's anything between Jiang Chen and Ye Yuwan, could Gong Lin still wholeheartedly assist Jiang Chen in managing Yi Chen?

More importantly, Ye Yuwan is a public figure. If some unsavory scandal were to leak, and it's related to Jiang Chen, what do you think the public's impression of Yi Chen would be?

You tell me, what will become of the Gong Family in the end?"

Wan Shan finished laying out his plan in one go.

The representatives of the Four Great Aristocratic Families all lit up with excitement!

"Furthermore..." Wan Shan spoke again, glancing over everyone and noticing they were all intently fixed on him. A surge of satisfaction filled him; this sense of strategizing made him feel elated, "The biggest reliance of Yi Chen is their tens of billions in funds. If we can make Yi Chen's funds shrink, tell me, are they still as formidable?"

"This... We also know Yi Chen's biggest reliance is their tens of billions in funds, but how could we possibly make it shrink? We had thought about infiltrating Yi Chen Company and creating some fake contracts or something, but we haven't succeeded!" Yue Tianming frowned as he spoke.

Wan Shan said contemptuously, "Infiltrate Yi Chen? How much time would you need before you could gain trust? Investment contracts like these would require rigorous checks, are you sure the tricks you play wouldn't be discovered?"

The Family Heads of the Four Great Aristocratic Families frowned simultaneously, wanting to say they had tried using a relative of Jiang Chen, whose trust might be taken for granted. But remembering how Shen Mingtao and his son were directly expelled from the house by Jiang Chen, they reluctantly closed their mouths.

"You're missing the point! The fastest way to shrink Yi Chen's funds, of course, is to go directly to Jiang Chen!" Wan Shan confidently declared.

"Directly approach Jiang Chen?!" The Family Heads of the Four Great Aristocratic Families were all taken aback.

Wan Shan smiled mysteriously and whispered his other plan!

...

In the last few days, Jiang Chen had been discussing the affairs of Sky Venerate City with Gong Lin. Today, finally having a break, Jiang Chen slept in at home.

A ringtone buzzed, and Jiang Chen groggily opened his eyes, turning to look out the window, which had already begun to darken.

Grabbing his phone to see who it was, Jiang Chen answered the call, "Hello, Yu Wan!"

"Jiang Chen, do you have time?" Ye Yuwan's voice sounded somewhat pleading.

Jiang Chen was slightly startled and replied with surprise, "Yeah, what's up?"

"Um... It's like this, a few people from the Dingjing Ye Family came to me, saying they want to mend the relationship with you, and I, I was thinking..." Ye Yuwan hesitated, struggling to continue.

In fact, she also wanted to mend the relationship with the Ye Family. After all, she had grown up in the Ye Family, even though it was the Jinhai branch, but ultimately, they were one clan. However, what the Ye Family had done to Jiang Chen really chilled her heart. She completely understood if Jiang Chen chose not to forgive the Ye Family. Now, with the Ye Family using her as a stepping stone to mend ties with Jiang Chen, Ye Yuwan found it difficult to say.

Jiang Chen blinked, catching the meaning behind her words, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

Although Ye Yuwan was currently living decently, she must feel adrift when alone, as she couldn't return to the Ye Family because of him. In this way, she was like a rootless duckweed...

He sighed softly and responded, "Okay, I'll come over. Where are you all?"

"We're at the Tian Lan Bar!" Ye Yuwan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly provided the location.

"Alright!"

Outside the Tian Lan Bar.

Ye Yuwan, wearing a hat and sunglasses, stood there with several young men and women. All eyes were on her.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Yuwan gazed at her phone buzzing with a dial tone, a gentle affection flashing in her eyes.

She was acutely aware that Jiang Chen had deep conflicts with the Ye Family, and his willingness to come was solely because of her!

Yu Wan, is Jiang Chen coming?" After Ye Yuwan finished the call, a young man looked at her somewhat nervously.

Ye Yuwan glanced at the young man and nodded slightly, "He agreed."

"That's great!" The youth let out a sigh of relief, exchanged glances with the others, and signalled to one of them, "Tianzhao, you go book a table first!"

"Sure!" Ye Tianzhao nodded and walked into the bar!

Ye Yuwan watched Ye Tianzhao for a moment, then turned to look towards the street corner.

The youth beside her glanced at Ye Yuwan, his lips curling into a sly smile.

Wuu wu... Squeal!

A domineering roar sounded, drawing everyone's attention. A flashy Knight XV drove into the outdoor parking lot of the Tian Lan Bar.

"He's here!" the youth beside Ye Yuwan stared fixedly at the Knight XV, his eyes filled with inexplicable meaning.

After parking the car, Jiang Chen opened the door and got out.

"Jiang Chen!" A shout came, and Jiang Chen turned to look. Ye Yuwan approached with a few others.

Glancing at the others, Jiang Chen inquiringly looked at Ye Yuwan.

Ye Yuwan introduced them with a smile, "This is Ye Tianliang, the son of the Family Head's elder brother, and this is..."

Before Jiang Chen could speak, footsteps approached, and the youth who had gone to book a table came out of the bar.

"This is Ye Tianzhao, the son of Uncle Jian Fei!" Ye Yuwan smoothly introduced the newcomer.

"Nice to meet you!" Jiang Chen nodded slightly and spoke blandly.

Ye Tianliang caught the signal from Ye Tianzhao and felt elated. He turned to Jiang Chen and politely said, "Jiang Chen, don't be a stranger. After all, we're family!"

"Yeah, the table is all set. Let's go in and chat!" Ye Tianzhao chimed in.

"Exactly, exactly! Let's go inside and talk!" Several people from the Ye Family chimed in with smiles.

A hint of suspicion flickered in Jiang Chen's eyes, but he nodded and agreed, "Okay!"

But his heart was already wondering:

Why are these guys so enthusiastic? All waiting at the door?

Something doesn't feel right...
