Chapter 1130: Chapter 1130: Completely Bewitched by the Little Fox Demon Chapter 1130: Chapter 1130: Completely Bewitched by the Little Fox Demon The answer was obvious, no.

Which man could raise another man’s child? Shen Chi, as he recalled, was not that kind-hearted.

“President Shen, I think, could we both calm down? Perhaps, we should invite Director Shen over for another talk,” said Bai Xuan.

“He’s currently in the hospital ward and can’t endure any stress. I’d advise you to save your worries,” Shen Chi warned him.

Recently, Shen Cexian had been in the hospital all the time, staying close to the ward. Although his condition hadn’t worsened, there hadn’t been any improvement either, and it had always been Zhou Ran keeping him company.

Shen Chi understood Bai Xuan’s intention; he simply wanted to use Shen Cexian as leverage.

“This group is Director Shen’s empire, and Director Shen has always taken good care of the Bai Family. I believe, Director Shen certainly wouldn’t want to see the Shen and Bai families destroy each other,” Bai Xuan said.

“Uncle Bai, do you know who the legal representative of Shen Group is right now?”

Bai Xuan was taken aback, “Did Cexian hand over the group to you? When did this happen?”

“It wasn’t me, it was Chaomu,” Shen Chi said coldly.

Bai Xuan was surprised again, his mind quickly grasping the situation.

“So, save your worries. My father is no longer in charge,” Shen Chi continued, “His health is very poor now, and I hope you won’t disturb him, Uncle Bai.”

“Nevertheless, I still hope he can come out and speak a fair word,” said Bai Xuan.

“Then save your worries too. He’s no longer in charge of Shen Group and can’t influence any of my decisions!” Shen Chi told him this fact mercilessly.

“You!” Bai Xuan was so angry that he was at a loss for words.

What else could he do? If Shen Chi was determined to go after the Bai Family, he certainly had his means, but Bai Xuan couldn’t just sit by and wait for his doom!

After all, Bai Xuan had also been in the business world for many years; he couldn’t let Shen Chi manipulate him at will.

“Uncle Bai, do you have anything else to say? If not, expect a summons from the court tomorrow,” Shen Chi said, lowering his voice.

“Shen Chi, you really are heartless,” accused Bai Xuan, “there’s no room for negotiation at all!”

“I gave you three days to consider, and you call that no room for negotiation?”

Bai Xuan, pointing at Shen Chi, truly felt a sensation of being angered to death.

No wonder this man could secure a foothold in C City at such a young age; wasn’t it all because of his ruthlessness and cold-bloodedness?

Could such a man be expected to show mercy to the Bai Family? Impossible!

“And one more thing, Uncle Bai, I hope you will tell me Bai Man’s whereabouts soon. I might still leave you all a place to live,” Shen Chi said nonchalantly.

“I sent her to an island for solitary reflection; this is punishment enough for her. Do you want to wipe us out completely? What has Manman ever done to wrong you? She likes you so much…” Bai Xuan retorted coldly.

“If I had to show sympathy for every person who likes me, then could I, Shen Chi, remain standing in C City?” Shen Chi laughed coldly.

“You and she must have some misunderstanding…”

“Uncle Bai!” Shen Chi interrupted him, leaving him no chance to explain, “If there’s nothing else, please go home and rest. I have friends to call over for a few drinks. You’re getting older and might be getting muddled; more rest could help you think clearer.”

Shen Chi’s voice was deep and icy, intimidating without anger.

Having heard Shen Chi’s order to leave, Bai Xuan’s face grew more and more unsightly. This evening, he hadn’t managed to gain any advantage in front of Shen Chi, not even a chance to negotiate.

If he stayed any longer, it would be out of character for Bai Xuan, especially since he was Shen Chi’s elder!

“Then, President Shen, it seems our families can’t even remain friends,” Bai Xuan said.

“From five years ago, our families weren’t friends,” Shen Chi said without any mercy.

“Then I hope your path ahead is ever smooth, President Shen. Goodbye.”

After he spoke, Bai Xuan left the private room, his assistant following him out.

The moment Bai Xuan stepped out of the private room, he said coldly to his assistant, “Have you seen Shen Chi’s ruthlessness?”

The assistant nodded, “President Bai, now I’ve seen it. I had only heard about his ruthlessness towards others before, but I never expected him to be like this even towards you.”

“Not at all!” Bai Xuan said, “He treated Shen Cexian the same way! He’s been completely bewitched by that little vixen, ignoring his own family! The Shen Group has actually been given to that little vixen.”

Bai Xuan’s face was full of disbelief, and so was the assistant’s.

The assistant whispered, “Mr. Bai, the fact that President Shen can give the group to Chaomu shows that Chairman Shen might really be out of the picture.”

“He’s sick in bed, how can he care about Shen Chi.”

“Then it seems that Miss Bai really has crossed President Shen’s line, otherwise…”

“Whose side are you on?” Bai Xuan glared at him.

“Yes, yes.”

“I’ve already sent Manman to a safe place; otherwise, Shen Chi would turn the world upside down to find her.” Bai Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.

“Then, Mr. Bai, where do we go now?”

“Since his bottom line is Chaomu, we won’t be afraid to keep pushing! Go dig up some dirt on Chaomu.”

“Mr. Bai, what if we can’t find anything?”

“There has to be something!” Bai Xuan declared.

“I understand.”

“I’ve heard she’s been quite close with several men. I refuse to believe there’s nothing that could cause Shen Group’s shares to plummet, at the very least, to distract Shen Chi.”

“Got it.”

“That’s one thing, find people who can help the Bai Family, as well as Shen Group’s competitors.”

“Mr. Bai, I think the biggest competitor is still Vice President Shen.”

Bai Xuan’s eyes flickered. Vice President Shen, Shen Shihan?

It was said that five years ago, the brothers fought tooth and nail over the group. Shen Chi never made life easy for Shen Shihan, just as Shen Shihan didn’t give Shen Chi an easy time.

This way, there might still be hope in seeking out Shen Shihan.

As Bai Xuan walked out, he pondered this issue–it looked like he could indeed talk to Shen Shihan.

“Mr. Bai, will we receive a court summons tomorrow?” the assistant asked anxiously.

Bai Xuan affirmed without hesitation, “Yes!”

Given Shen Chi’s character, he always kept his word.

If he said he would send the Bai Family a court summons tomorrow, he certainly wouldn’t postpone it to the day after!

“Then what do we… do?” The assistant’s face was full of urgency.

“Let’s talk when we get back!” Bai Xuan quickened his pace toward the car.

“Yes.” The assistant followed suit.

In the private room, once Bai Xuan left, Shen Chi sat down and poured himself a drink, alone.

It was already dark when Shen Chi called Ji Shengxuan, but Ji Shengxuan was nowhere to be found and refused to come.

Having no choice, Shen Chi then called one of his subordinates.

“President Shen.”

“How’s Chaomu doing in Jin City?”

“The lady is working; her daily life is very stable.”

“Working? What about Xiaobao?”

“The lady hired a nanny, who takes care of the little master.”

“Hired a nanny?” Shen Chi chuckled, “With the salary she earns, she can afford a nanny?”
