Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 129: Chapter 129: How do you know him!_1

”Investigate a person?”

Wang Ye was startled, even a bit baffled.

Why would Chen Jiutian need him to investigate someone? After all, he wasn’t professional, this kind of task should be left to a private detective or similar.

While speaking, Wang Ye couldn’t help but gaze at the person lying on the sofa. Although the face was unrecognizable, he could vaguely tell from the body shape and hairstyle—

”This is Master Chen Feng, isn’t it!” Wang Ye’s expression changed slightly, and he exclaimed.

Chen Feng, Chen Jiutian’s only son, what had happened to make him end up like this?

He was fine just a couple of days ago!

Chen Feng, lying inert like a dead pig, grunted twice at Wang Ye as a greeting.

”This is why I need you to investigate that person,” Chen Jiutian said with a harsh voice. ”Sheng is in this state because of that person’s doing!”

Someone had harmed Chen Jiutian’s only son to this extent?!

Wang Ye’s breath hitched. As curious as he was, he forcefully refrained from asking more, fearing involvement.

But no matter who did it, that person was as good as dead!

Who was Chen Jiutian!

A world-class financial empire—General Manager of the Greater China Region, East China District of Zhenbei Group, commanding all of Zhenbei’s industries across eight provinces and cities in East China!

Comparable to a feudal lord!

Compared with Chen Jiutian, he, Wang Ye, was merely a deputy head of a leading company in a city, the disparity as vast as that between clouds and mud!

Wang Ye was by nature overbearing, but beneath such a stark difference, he was constantly deferential.

In the eyes of Wang Ye, Chen Jiutian was like a towering tree, a mighty bastion reaching into the clouds.

Many people only knew that he, Wang Ye, wanted to become the general manager of Century Construction, that Shang Wenshu wanted to join the group.

Even Shang Wenshu thought he could advance further on his own merits.

In reality, they were wrong, all of them.

Chen Jiutian was using Shang Wenshu’s mindset, letting him work hard to make his projects bigger and better.

Although Wang Ye constantly created obstacles in the project, he never really caused serious trouble, all just to put pressure on Shang Wenshu!

After Shang Wenshu expanded his role, Wang Ye would take over, quietly profiting for Chen Jiutian from behind the scenes.

Shang Wenshu might indeed join the group as he wished, but it would not be a promotion! He was just a pawn, to be used by Chen Jiutian whenever necessary.

This was Wang Ye’s own understanding.

He firmly believed that even Chen Jiutian would have reservations about the inspection team and find it hard to trust someone.

But he, Wang Ye, was Chen Jiutian’s confidant! There would always be an opportunity for him to soar!

Right now, it was another chance for him to show his zeal!

Since the incident happened in Tiannan, he would dig out the ringleader! No matter the effort or the cost!

”In Tiannan, I too have my roots and connections. Who does Mr. Chen want to investigate? I’ll get on it right away!”

Wang Ye, long seated in a high position, knew what kind of person the leaders liked.

Compared to Chen Jiutian’s instructions, the matter Wang Ye was going to report about Bai Xiaosheng didn’t seem important anymore!

Chen Jiutian glanced at Wang Ye and nodded in satisfaction, not in a hurry to send him off to do the task.

Instead, he took a seat leisurely and gestured Wang Ye to sit down as well.

”Wang, I am aware of your capabilities!” Chen Jiutian instructed Wang Ye. ”Over these years, you’ve worked diligently for me; I haven’t forgotten any of it!”

Wang Ye, visibly moved, was about to say something.

Chen Jiutian raised his hand to stop him. Declarations of loyalty were so tasteless to him now; he heard them everywhere, and they had long grown tiresome.

”Now, if you can handle this matter for me, another step upward is not out of the question,”

Chen Jiutian said with a smile. ”Do you understand?”

”I do!”

Wang Ye’s gaze was almost ignited by those words.

Actually, for a leader, offering prospects of advancement is like giving a sweet date, dangling a carrot, a tactic similar to the other hand’s slap or the big stick.

It’s just that when one applies it, it is clear to them. But when someone higher up uses it on oneself, it becomes easy to get caught up in it and to not see the true colors.

This is a common fault of humanity.

Seeing that it was about time, Chen Jiutian’s motivation ignited, and then, it was time to assign the task!

He believed that Wang Ye would give it his all!

Since that Bai Xiaosheng was associated with the Lu family, there was a trail to follow. With dedication, it could be cleared up in three to five days, or at most, ten to fifteen days would be more than enough.

I can wait, thought Chen Jiutian.

”The person I want you to investigate is a young man, roughly the same age as Xiaofeng,” Chen Jiutian said.

A young man, about the same age as Chen Feng? Wang Ye noted in his mind and glanced at Chen Feng, who was like a mummy on the sofa, his heart stirred.

This is about seeking revenge!

Wang Ye sighed inwardly, wondering who had the gall to do such a thing!

But regardless of who it was, they were as good as dead!

In these provinces, all subsidiaries of Zhenbei had to listen to Chen Jiutian. This was an immense power, and that young man had no idea who he had provoked!

”Today, we met that kid at Lu Yun’s private estate, and he seems to be friends with Lu Yun’s daughter Lu Wenqian,” Chen Jiutian said.

Lu Yun?

After a brief moment of thought, Wang Ye’s expression changed drastically!

The Lu Yun of Tengyun Group? Wang Ye looked at Chen Jiutian incredulously.

How is it related to Lu Yun!

That internet magnate, an absolute behemoth!

Being a guest in Lu Yun’s house, could he be a simple character?

I knew it, the person who did that to Chen Feng must be no simple figure!

This is a hot potato!

Wang Ye’s palms were unwittingly sweating.

No wonder Chen Jiutian promised me such great benefits!

When the King of Hell fights, a little ghost meddling in between, one single misstep... Wang Ye dared not think further.

”With Lu Yun involved, this might be difficult...” Wang Ye said with difficulty.

”What are you afraid of, I haven’t finished speaking yet!” Chen Jiutian uttered, somewhat dissatisfied, and gave Wang Ye a look, but he felt it was understandable, after all, even he wasn’t on equal footing with Lu Yun.

Perhaps only the head of the Greater China Region would qualify!

”I said, he is a friend or classmate of Lu Yun’s daughter, not a scion of a rich family. Does that put your mind at ease?”

Not a scion of a rich family? Wang Ye’s heart eased a bit.

Chen Jiutian wouldn’t speak without basis, after all, even he wouldn’t dare to provoke Lu Yun.

Wang Ye couldn’t help but exhale a long breath, his expression relaxed, but seeing Chen Jiutian’s dissatisfaction, he quickly said, ”Even if he truly is some rich scion, I will investigate and clarify everything for you!”

After all, it’s only an investigation, and I’m not the one who would make a move in the end.

Wang Ye thought.

Chen Jiutian snorted coldly.

”That young man is slightly taller than Xiaofeng, a bit thin, with eyes full of spirit. He had an annoying smile on his face, as if everything was under his control...”

Chen Jiutian described his impression at the time, but after describing, he felt it was somewhat difficult. Searching for someone based on appearance was too challenging.

Fortunately, there was still a name.

All of a sudden, Chen Jiutian noticed that Wang Ye seemed to be staring blankly.

Based on Chen Jiutian’s description, a person emerged in Wang Ye’s mind.

”The young man you are talking about, is it Bai Xiaosheng?”

Almost subconsciously, Wang Ye spoke out.

”Yes, Bai Xiaosheng,” Chen Jiutian nodded repeatedly.

Suddenly, Chen Jiutian was startled, ”How do you know this name!”

Wang Ye gave a wry smile.

”I am here to report to you about him!”
