Chapter 426: 0427 Affecting the innocent bystanders

About the targeting of Longjia, Ye Qiu still had some doubts regarding the specific enemy, and he needed to find Shen Mengchen to understand clearly.

When Ye Qiu arrived at Longjia Building, it was nearly dusk, employees had begun to leave work, and were leaving the building one after another.

Huang Ya passed by Ye Qiu, and because Ye Qiu’s pace was rather quick, Huang Ya didn’t get a clear look at his face. She stopped and turned around to watch the quickly vanishing figure, stared for a long while, then finally turned back.

Why does he look so much like that person...

That person hadn’t appeared at the company for a while; maybe she had seen wrong.

"Huang Ya, what are you looking at?" the colleague walking in front asked, noticing Huang Ya’s absent look, and couldn’t help but pull her a little.

Huang Ya smiled and shook her head, "It’s nothing."

Afterward, the two of them left the front of Longjia Building together, and Huang Ya no longer thought about the man who had been in her mind.

When Ye Qiu appeared in front of Shen Mengchen, she looked somewhat tired and said, "I thought you had disappeared and wouldn’t come back." There was a touch of reproach in her tone.

"Is our Miss Shen missing me?" Ye Qiu laughed.

"Hmph, don’t flatter yourself. Do you think you’re that handsome? I don’t bother missing you," said Shen Mengchen, her competitive spirit stirred by Ye Qiu’s words, which brightened her demeanor considerably, revealing her long-absent girlish charm.

"Looking at you, the company is developing well now?" Ye Qiu asked rhetorically, deliberately for Shen Mengchen to hear, as he fully knew the answer.

Shen Mengchen naturally wouldn’t reveal the current situation of Longjia; she didn’t want Ye Qiu to step in and help. She was confident in handling business problems on her own.

Seeing Shen Mengchen still choosing to shoulder it alone, Ye Qiu felt a pang of pity for this stubborn girl. Shen Mengchen’s smiling face looked so sunny, yet Ye Qiu had already seen through the real bitterness hidden behind that forced smile.

"Longjia is developing rapidly right now. I will definitely realize my father’s dream, spreading Longjia all over China and turning it into a global brand," said Shen Mengchen resolutely, her face full of earnestness.

However, Ye Qiu’s next words caused the smile Shen Mengchen had forced to suddenly freeze.

"Liu Bo has already told me, why do you have to face it all alone?" Ye Qiu slowly said.

Shen Mengchen bit her lips, her gaze complex as she looked at Ye Qiu.

The man before her had been by her side since her father’s death, helping her through tough times. Although he often disappeared, he always showed up when Longjia faced difficulties, standing behind her, supporting her. This feeling was like... like a father...

For some reason, Shen Mengchen felt her eyes moistening as Ye Qiu’s face seemed to display her father’s comforting smile.

Ye Qiu only felt a jolt through his body as the girl before him suddenly threw herself into his arms, sobbing bitterly.

Ye Qiu, unsure where to place his hands at first, ended up gently patting Shen Mengchen’s back with one hand, murmuring, "I’m here for you, you won’t have to face the hardships alone."

Hearing these words, Shen Mengchen hugged him even tighter, indulging in the warmth of his broad shoulders and comforting chest.

After a while, Shen Mengchen reluctantly left Ye Qiu’s embrace, wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, and once again showed a smile.

"Ye Qiu, I’m warning you, forget about what just happened. If you dare use this to make fun of me, I won’t let it go," Shen Mengchen said with her hands on her hips, adopting the commanding tone of a haughty heiress, as if she had reverted to her old imperious self.

Seeing Shen Mengchen like this eased Ye Qiu’s heart somewhat; this was the Shen Mengchen he knew.

"Alright, Miss, I promise I’ll forget. Can you tell me now who exactly is targeting Longjia?" Ye Qiu asked.

At this point, Shen Mengchen’s playful expression vanished, and she became serious, her expression quite stern, "Actually, I’ve always been unable to pinpoint who exactly the other party is, but they can influence the various business associations, and the clues we found don’t seem to suggest any large groups within Huaxia. Although Longjia has been developing quite well over the years, it shouldn’t be targeted like this."

"I think it must be a foreign power because the business associations all have foreigners in charge, and only someone with significant international influence could affect them," she concluded.

Listening to Shen Mengchen’s continuous analysis, Ye Qiu began to piece together the true culprit targeting Longjia in his mind.

Foreign forces, suddenly targeting Longjia, with no apparent economic competition, yet willing to exert such considerable effort—what relationship could possibly be hidden behind this?

Soon, Ye Qiu thought of a possibility. Could it be them?

"Do you know who it is?" Shen Mengchen exclaimed, surprised.

Ye Qiu nodded, "If I’m not mistaken, the ones targeting Longjia should be the Kondrakir family."

"The Kondrakir family?" Shen Mengchen, hearing this name for the first time, was puzzled how her not-yet-public Huaxia company could have gotten entangled with this mysterious foreign family.

Ye Qiu, however, showed a bitter smile. If it really was the Kondrakir family causing this, then the root of the problem wasn’t with Longjia, but with him.

It was because of Ye Qiu’s connections that the Kondrakir family had shifted their focus to the Longjia Group.

Suddenly hearing this result, Shen Mengchen gritted her teeth, her eyes wide with anger as she glared at Ye Qiu. No wonder she couldn’t figure it out; it was all this guy’s fault.

"Ye Qiu, I’m going to kill you, you disaster!" Shen Mengchen threatened as if she was about to haul off and hit him.

Ye Qiu quickly dodged, realizing unexpectedly that since the Kondrakir family couldn’t deal with him directly, they chose to target the Longjia Group instead. It seemed the enemy had investigated him thoroughly, or else they wouldn’t have targeted Longjia this specifically.

"Miss, only women are called disasters; a big man like me can’t be one," Ye Qiu argued as he dodged.

Of course, his retort only infuriated Shen Mengchen further. The crisis Longjia was facing was already because of Ye Qiu, and now he was being particularly infuriating; Shen Mengchen considered it an act of supreme kindness and mercy that she hadn’t torn him to pieces right there and then.

The two frolicked and struggled until Shen Mengchen no longer had the energy to chase after Ye Qiu, marking the end of their tussle.

Now that the opponent had been identified, what remained was resolving the problem. This time, Shen Mengchen didn’t want to take it on alone as Ye Qiu was the reason Longjia was caught in trouble. Obviously, she pushed this big problem onto Ye Qiu, ordering him to figure out a solution to this massive dilemma.

Ye Qiu had no choice but to agree, nodding his head; even if it wasn’t because of him, he wouldn’t stand by idly if Longjia faced other adversaries.

Ye Qiu assured her, patting his chest, already having a plan in mind to resolve Longjia’s current predicament.

After dropping Shen Mengchen off at the Goddess Mansion, Ye Qiu vanished into the moonlight like a phantom ghost.

Ye Qiu’s return promised that the night would be anything but quiet.
