(The ending of the previous chapter felt inappropriate, so I made some slight alterations and deleted a few paragraphs, which won’t affect the plot.)

The death of Ge Yusheng had not long passed before it reached the ears of the Director of Zhongshan City.

With a stern face, the Director sat as officials of all ranks tread cautiously around him, fearful that their rage might explode and turn towards themselves.

“At such a critical moment, to have such a major incident occur, is someone trying to ruin my political career?” The Director felt his future prospects dimming, which speaks volumes of his mood at the moment.

“Get to the bottom of this, find the murderer at all costs.

I want to see who dared to cause such a big problem for me,” the Director ordered, and the entire Zhongshan City felt as if it had been hit by an earthquake.

Officials from all departments warned their subordinates to avoid causing any more trouble, lest they face the wrath of the furious Director.

The police department was the unluckiest of all; the Chief of Zhongshan City’s police was summoned by the Director to his office and severely reprimanded.

After all, public security falls within the purview of the police, and the murder of a business tycoon in Zhongshan City naturally had the biggest impact on the city’s market.

Previously, had it not been to prevent this incident, why else would the Director have intervened to mediate the grudge between Ge Yusheng and Shen Tianlong?

Yet now, it had happened anyway.

Could it have been Shen Tianlong’s doing?

While discussing this possibility with Chief Wang, the Director then dismissed it, believing Shen Tianlong, an old fox of the business world, would not disregard the respect due to the Director and act against Ge Yusheng so swiftly.

They had made peace less than a week ago, and nobody would be foolish enough to court disaster so blatantly.

Of course, this possibility could not be completely ruled out.

“Director, I have an idea that may or may not be correct.”

“Let’s hear it,” the Director said with a look of surprise.

Half an hour later, Chief Wang left the Director’s office, and the two had come to a consensus.

Chief Wang hurried back to the police station to commence a thorough investigation into the death of Ge Yusheng.

At the top floor of the Longjia Building!

Shen Tianlong quietly looked at various messages before him, hesitating to act.

Steward Liu prepared a kettle of hot water and gently placed a cup of boiling water on the table.

“Master, now that Rongda is headless, various enterprises have already begun to eat away at Rongda’s business.

When shall we make our move?”

In response to Steward Liu’s question, Shen Tianlong pondered for a while before slowly saying, “It’s true we are mortal enemies with Rongda, but right now, we are the ones who should least afford to make a move.”

“Oh?” Steward Liu showed confusion.

It seemed like a prime opportunity, yet the chairman didn’t want to make a move.

“Although the current situation is in our favor, have you considered, after this business devouring, who will step forward to clean up the battlefield?” Shen Tianlong voiced his thoughts, which were also a heavy weight on his mind.

Steward Liu didn’t understand.

“Zhongshan City cannot be thrown into chaos, especially at this critical moment.

Even if Rongda put benefits right in front of me, I couldn’t just take them,” Shen Tianlong mused with a sigh.

“Why does the master say so?” Steward Liu truly couldn’t see through the implications, but he could see a look of apprehension on Shen Tianlong’s face, although he couldn’t understand why the master would exhibit such an expression.

“Who do you think is most likely behind the killing of Ge Yusheng?” Shen Tianlong suddenly asked.

“Naturally, it would be our master, you,” Steward Liu blurted out in response.

“Hehe, yes, a clear-minded person would think of that,” Shen Tianlong chuckled. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

The butler Liu seemed to realize something, his eyes suddenly twinkled as he continued, “Could it be, my lord, you’re afraid that people will start suspecting you?”

Shen Tianlong revealed a bitter smile, “It’s not that I’m afraid, it’s that people have already started suspecting that I was behind it, even though I really wanted Ge Yusheng dead, just not now!”

“The one who killed Ge Yusheng has put our Longjia Group in front of the furnace to be roasted.

Although they have helped me eliminate Ge Yusheng, they have also harmed us.

Once we make a move to take over Rongda’s market, the murderer’s name will be conclusively pinned on us,” Shen Tianlong sighed with a complicated look in his eyes.

Faced with a huge cake in front of him, yet unable to partake, Shen Tianlong was also frustrated, but he truly didn’t dare make a move.

“So it seems, we can only watch as others share this piece of cake,” the butler Liu echoed Shen Tianlong’s sentiments, his tone filled with regret.

“It’s just a temporary gain or loss, let them fight over it, we’ll just stand aside and watch,” Shen Tianlong spoke lightly, standing up, picking up a glass of plain water, and gazed towards the brightly lit distant streets.

Rongda was paralyzed, whether it was the employees or the leadership, faced with the sudden multitude of changes, they were completely panicked.

At this moment, Rongda could be said to be a loose sack of sand, with Ge Yusheng suddenly killed, the second and third directors not in the country and temporarily unable to return to take charge, faced with the outreach of various groups, Rongda was powerless to resist.

With no one at the helm, Rongda’s markets were being swiftly overtaken, all partnerships came to an abrupt end.

Now, it was chaos, as all the major groups made their moves, each wanting to swallow a bigger piece of the cake.

Be it Hengye Group or Yagong Materials, they all rushed to seize the market, taking what had belonged to Rongda into their own hands.

Although this process was violent, it unfolded rapidly, Rongda’s subsidiaries were forced to shut down due to various issues, and the companies that had partnered with them promptly terminated cooperation.

Rongda’s headquarters were in a flurry, too preoccupied to care, as the market was divided up and taken away piece by piece.

During this period, there were very few enterprises that didn’t make a move; not everyone could ignore the tremendous benefits before their eyes.

Longjia Group was operating as usual, aside from the employees feeling a sense of regret that their company wasn’t participating in this market scramble, all that was left for them was the excitement of watching from the sidelines.

As the chairman of the board, Shen Tianlong, hearing the news of Rongda’s market being divided, had composure and calmness on his face, showing no signs of regret.

It was as if the fierce battle of the commercial arena had nothing to do with him.

A powerful enemy was being divided on all fronts, Shen Tianlong only felt even better, no feelings of regret stirred within him.

Without Rongda as a competitor, even without expanding and seizing the market, Longjia Group still possessed the momentum of becoming the leading force in business.

Shen Tianlong stood in front of the window, watching the rapidly changing situation, as unmovable as a mountain, an embodiment of steadfastness and grandeur!

After today, who else could compete with Longjia…

“If I were younger, with a little more time, Longjia’s strides wouldn’t stop at Zhongshan City, it has a much better future,” Shen Tianlong spoke with the momentum of soaring on a dragon, his tone full of ambition, yet tinged with a hint of helplessness.

Thinking about his own health, which wouldn’t give him much more time to help Longjia Group continue to grow.

If he were gone, whether Jingjing could take control of the vast Longjia Group well enough, to lead it to set sail from Zhongshan City, towards the nation, or even out into the world.

Shen Tianlong felt a hint of hope, yet also a hint of concern.

But right now, this was all he could do; the future of Longjia was left for Jingjing to figure out.

He was tired!

Shen Tianlong stood at the window for a long time, like a giant cast from steel, standing there motionless.

Until the dawn light appeared, and the morning’s radiance filled the sky, covering Shen Tianlong’s form in the early light completely.
