Elder Master Jiang sighed, "I hadn't expected Jiang Minghui to make a move against Chen'er so soon. If it were some time later, once Chen'er's Yi Chen reached a hundred billion in funds, by then, I wouldn't be afraid of Jiang Minghui laying a finger on him.

The several old folks in the family had already agreed that as long as Chen'er's funds reached a hundred billion, they would support him.

But now, with this issue arising at such a critical moment, those old folks have started to waver, and these past few days, Jiang Minghui has certainly not neglected to visit them!"

"This..." Butler Lu's face showed a slight change in color, the several elders in the family were Elder Master Jiang's biggest bargaining chip. If they all started to waver and shifted support to Jiang Minghui, that would be troublesome.

"Don't worry too much, those old chaps, even if one or two of them defect to Jiang Minghui, not all will do so—it's most they'll remain neutral.

And the current situation has its pros and cons, after all, 'There is no thief for a thousand days, but there is defense against a thief for a thousand days.'

It seems Jiang Minghui has been eyeing Chen'er for a long time and can't hold back any longer. If he becomes desperate and disregards his reputation, then Chen'er will be in danger.

Therefore, this incident is a hurdle for Chen'er, as well as an opportunity. If Chen'er can resolve this issue, he will have a justified reason to return to the family, and Jiang Minghui will no longer be able to openly use the power of the Jiang Family to suppress Chen'er.

As long as Jiang Minghui can't move openly, we'll help Chen'er watch out for any underhanded tactics, and things should be largely foolproof."

Having said that, Elder Master Jiang suddenly shook his head and chuckled lightly, "If Chen'er can't resolve it, I'm old already, and I don't want to see the day my lineage ends. At that time, I'll move to Dingjing to be with him, and even if he lives a stable life as a wealthy man there, it'll be good enough!"

After finishing, a trace of relief appeared in Elder Master Jiang's eyes.

Butler Lu's heart trembled. He knew very well that no matter how harsh Elder Master Jiang sounded on ordinary days, family was still family after all, and the elder did not wish to see his family come to blows against each other.

However, Butler Lu kept one thought to himself: Elder Master Jiang may not desire it, but that doesn't mean Jiang Minghui doesn't!

Time flew swiftly, and under the watchful eyes of various powers in Dingjing and the collective anticipation of the Jiang Family of Jincheng, the grand opening day of Sky Venerate City had arrived.

That morning, the entrance of Sky Venerate City was filled with luxury cars, the heads of the Four Great Aristocratic Families, Hua Zhiqiang and his daughter, Old Lady Luo of the Gong Family with Gong Zijun and others, Ye Jianzhong and others from the Ye Family, and Zhang Kun too, awaited there.

They were not there to offer congratulations, but to catch Jiang Chen's blunders!

Meanwhile, many forces in Dingjing had also gathered here, though they stood at a farther distance, mainly not wanting to be misunderstood by the Four Great Aristocratic Families. They too wanted to witness the clash between Yi Chen and the Four Great Aristocratic Families, as well as Hua Zhiqiang, to see who would emerge victorious. Although they weren't optimistic about Yi Chen, they wouldn't feel at ease not witnessing it with their own eyes!

Vrooom... Squeak!

The Knight XV made an imposing entrance, and after parking, Jiang Chen glanced at the crowd gathered not far away on the street, his lips curling into a cold smirk.

"Boss!" Seeing Jiang Chen arrive, Fan Jiuzhe led a group of employees running out from Sky Venerate City.

"Hang up the banners and everything, what's the matter, why isn't it sorted out yet?" Jiang Chen frowned at Fan Jiuzhe.

Fan Jiuzhe forced a smile and said, "Boss, are you really going to confront the Four Great Aristocratic Families head-on?"

"If you want to resign, I'll approve it right now!" Jiang Chen looked indifferently at Fan Jiuzhe.

Fan Jiuzhe shivered, knowing that the boss was not joking, and immediately turned around to direct the staff to get busy.

Within ten minutes, the opening banners, stickers, flower baskets, and red carpet for Sky Venerate City were all properly arranged.

Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction, although these guys hadn't arranged everything from the start, they were clearly well-rehearsed.

Vrooom...

Just as everything was set up at the entrance, a Maserati Quattroporte arrived, and Gong Lin stepped out of the car.

"Director Gong!" Fan Jiuzhe hurriedly went forward to meet her.

"Hmm!" Gong Lin nodded her head, cast a glance at the Four Great Aristocratic Families and others by the roadside, and then strode over to stand beside Jiang Chen at the entrance of Sky Venerate City, "I notified everyone we know, but they haven't given any replies."

"Replies aren't important; what's important is whether they come," Jiang Chen replied lightly with a smile, "If they all had given replies, that would actually worry me. Such a big matter, responding without the slightest hesitation, those are often the ones who are most likely to change their minds!"

Gong Lin nodded, yet concern lingered in her eyes.

Vrooom...

Before long, a Lamborghini Veneno arrived, and Ye Yuwan stepped out of the car, heading straight towards Jiang Chen and Gong Lin.

"Did you change your car?" Jiang Chen asked Gong Lin.

Gong Lin gave Jiang Chen a disdainful look, "I often meet with clients; how can I drive that car? It's a bit too frivolous!"

"Ye Yuwan, it's the big star Ye Yuwan!"

"Is she here to officiate the ribbon-cutting for Sky Venerate City?"

"I heard her agent is called Jiang Chen, and the owner of Sky Venerate City is also called Jiang Chen. Could it be the same person?"

"In that case, it's not strange that Ye Yuwan ignored the threats of the Four Great Aristocratic Families to come here!"

People nearby started whispering among themselves.

"This is all about borrowing his woman's clout, huh!"

"Haha, Sky Venerate City has really embarrassed itself this time!"

"They've lost all their credibility; Jiang Chen has really lost face this time!"

"How dare they stand up against us, the Four Great Aristocratic Families; they're really asking for death!"

The younger members of the Four Great Aristocratic Families loudly mocked them.

The Four Family Heads and Hua Zhiqiang and others chuckled coldly, not surprised at all by the arrival of Gong Lin and Ye Yuwan, and didn't take it seriously.

Not only that, but they felt even more at ease and mocked without restraint.

Wuuu...

But just at that moment, another roaring sound approached.

Everyone turned to look, and their expressions suddenly changed.

In the distance, several luxury cars arrived, and under the gaze of the crowd, they parked one after another in the open-air parking lot of Sky Venerate City.

The reception staff of Sky Venerate City hurried over; while they all knew Gong Lin and Ye Yuwan, who needed no welcoming, the other guests were indeed genuine patrons.

"Zhou Qing, the CEO of the Four Seas Group from Dingjing, has come to congratulate Sky Venerate City on its grand opening with a congratulatory gift..."

The first car's passenger was Zhou Qing, the former executive secretary of Sihai Investment, who, after Gong Lin left, was strongly recommended for the CEO position.

"Hahaha, so it's people from The Four Seas, Gong Lin's leftovers; the rest are probably just here to fill the space at Gong Lin's behest, not worth considering!"

Lin Zhenggang laughed heartily, relieved, and spoke mockingly.

"Yeah, they're all the wife's people."

"This Jiang Chen really has no other skills; he completely relies on his wife for support."

"Don't you think about it, what's his status? A son-in-law who came through marriage, he's meant to live off his wife."

"Hey, that makes sense, hahaha."

The crowd laughed out loud, smug and unchecked.

"Boom boom—"

Suddenly, the roaring sound was heard again.

Then, a convoy of luxury cars came with the roaring, all arriving in unison.

And then, under everyone's watchful eyes, these cars stopped and the doors opened—following which, a series of announcements made all those people's faces change color.
