Chapter 916: Chapter 905: Work with My Umbrella!
“People always believe what they want to believe. For instance, I ca here with goodwill, which is sothing you didn’t expect, Mr. Chen. If you thought I had ill intentions, would you still be sitting in front of ?”
“Hehe, you really do love to joke around, sir. I had no doubts about your intentions…”
In public, it was one story, but behind the scenes, it was another matter entirely. Both Teng Yunge and Chen Fengnan had hidden intentions in their hearts.
Teng Yunge said he wanted to be friends with him, but what his real purpose was, who else knew besides himself?
Chen Fengnan didn’t let down his guard because of Teng Yunge’s words; instead, he beca more suspicious of his true purpose for coming here.
As the new number one of the Umbrella, Teng Yunge’s first task after assuming the position was to co to Zhonghai. Chen Fengnan was very aware that his first stop was Ning Fan, because they were friends.
But shortly after eting with Ning Fan, Teng Yunge turned around and ca here. Chen Fengnan considered his own influence quite strong, with the support of the Chen Financial Conglorate. Many were eager to befriend him, even competing to do so.
However, Teng Yunge was clearly not within this sphere. Chen Fengnan was keenly aware that, in Teng Yunge’s mind, Ning Fan still held greater importance.
“You’ve co from afar; why not be candid with each other? What exactly did you co to see for, Mr. Chen? Why not speak directly!”
Chen Fengnan spoke in a steady voice, scrutinizing Teng Yunge’s face, but through his eyes, he couldn’t discern any of Teng Yunge’s genuine thoughts.
Teng Yunge responded with a serene smile: “Mr. Chen, is your mory failing? I said when I first arrived that I’m here to befriend you. How could you forget that?”
Befriend him?
Chen Fengnan sneered internally. He was not a three-year-old child. What reason did Teng Yunge have to befriend him?
“Why don’t we change the topic, Mr. Chen? What do you think of Umbrella?”
Finally, after Teng Yunge shifted the topic, Chen Fengnan finally saw this guy’s Fang.
“Umbrella is a vast empire, once very active during the First and Second World Wars…”
After a brief evaluation of Umbrella, a glint flashed in Chen Fengnan’s eyes.
Umbrella was indeed glorious in the past, but it must be noted that glory was only in the past. The cycle of generations is an eternal truth. Unfortunately, Umbrella is now on the decline.
Though Chen Fengnan didn’t say it outright, he subtly implied it afterward.
Regarding this, Teng Yunge did not beco angry. Instead, he looked at Chen Fengnan with an appreciative gaze: “Mr. Chen is a wise man. I wonder, if Umbrella were to collaborate with the Chen Financial Conglorate, what would you think of that?”
As soon as these words were uttered, the faces of the others changed dramatically, except for Teng Yunge and his companion, Fei Peilie, who showed no particular reaction.
Chen Fengnan’s reaction was also swift; after a brief mont of surprise, he imdiately said with a smile: “Surely you must be joking. What good collaboration could there be between Umbrella and my Chen Financial Conglorate?”
“Oh? Do you think I’m joking with you?”
Teng Yunge squinted his eyes, releasing his aura, which imdiately caused Chen Fengnan to feel imnse pressure.
A strong contender of the True Origin Realm, whose sheer presence alone was not sothing that the Four King Kongs by Chen Fengnan’s side could withstand. Feeling Teng Yunge’s power, the Four King Kongs were now sweating bullets.
At this mont, Chen Fengnan couldn’t help but grit his teeth and asked again: “Sir, what exactly is your goal?”
“What other goal could I have? I’ve made myself clear enough; I’m here to seek a partnership with the Chen Financial Conglorate. Do you really think I’m here to harm you?”
Teng Yunge maintained his initial stance, stating that he was here to seek collaboration with Chen Fengnan, unrelated to any other matters.
But his real purpose was definitely not as stated; Chen Fengnan was certain of this. The old fox before him was undoubtedly concocting so new sche in his mind.
However, Teng Yunge’s presentation was flawless; if he didn’t say it himself, perhaps Chen Fengnan would never know what kind of conspiracy this person was concocting.
“I heard that just a few days ago you t with Mr. Ning?”
Suddenly, Chen Fengnan brought up the matter.
At this, Teng Yunge’s deanor changed strangely. Upon hearing Chen Fengnan ntion Ning Fan, he could no longer maintain his calm, and his facial expressions began to betray his composure.
“It seems you’re truly good friends with Ning Fan, sharing everything!”
Teng Yunge’s eyes flashed with a gleam, his gaze locked tightly on Chen Fengnan, now even more resolute in his thought of enlisting him to his side.
“We’re not at the point of sharing everything, but I am indeed quite good friends with Mr. Ning. In this respect, you are correct, sir.”
At this mont, Chen Fengnan unexpectedly used Ning Fan to counterattack, sothing Teng Yunge hadn’t anticipated.
However, Teng Yunge had already prepared. The reason he ca here after two days of calmness was naturally because of his plans. Today he did not plan to return empty-handed, confident that Chen Fengnan would definitely agree to collaborate with him.
“Mr. Chen, what do you think is the difference between Umbrella and Ning Fan?”
Another troubleso question. If soone else were to ask, Chen Fengnan could be honest. However, since the person before him was Teng Yunge, he had to think carefully.
Chen Fengnan was not Ning Fan; he didn’t possess his formidable strength. So now, facing Teng Yunge, he dared not risk provoking him. Otherwise, if Teng Yunge were angered, that would pose no benefit and only increase his peril.
After pondering carefully, Chen Fengnan responded calmly: “Umbrella and my Chen Financial Conglorate haven’t worked together before, but Mr. Ning is different. Mr. Ning values relationships, and having collaborated for such a long ti, we’ve maintained a good relationship.”
“So, you’re saying you don’t really know how formidable Umbrella is?”
Teng Yunge seized the opportunity and imdiately asked.
But Chen Fengnan was stunned. He only ant to use his unfamiliarity with Umbrella as an excuse, but unexpectedly, Teng Yunge used it against him, seemingly wanting to sell him on the partnership.
“I’ll tell you, collaborating with my Umbrella is no less than partnering with Ning Fan!”
