Chapter 744: Kneel Down! (2)

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Upon hearing this, Chen Li couldn’t help but think that Zhou Chao was not to be trifled with. Initially, he just wanted to use Zhou Chao’s identity to pressure those shareholders a bit, perhaps even clear them out of management if the opportunity arose. But who would have thought that Zhou Chao would be so ruthless and directly take advantage of the situation?

Although he wanted to curse inwardly, there was no change on his face.

“Young Master Zhou, you’re just joking. How could my humble business catch your eye? Young Master Zhou, please don’t tease me,” Chen Li said with a forced smile.

His change in attitude was swift, faster than even the shifting of the Sichuan non-legacy culture.

Even the address changed from ‘Mr. Zhou’ to ‘Young Master Zhou,’ aiming to bridge the gap between them and dissuade Zhou Chao from his previous thoughts.

“Director Li, if your Yili Dairy Industry is considered humble, then 99.99% of companies in China should be ashamed. As the leading force in the domestic dairy industry, you cannot afford to be so modest!”

Si Cong, who had come out on his own and worked hard, wasn’t just here for a free ride. Bantering like this was second nature to him.

Hearing Si Cong’s words, Zhou Chao chimed in, “Director Li, there’s no need to be so modest. Yili’s development has already reached its peak domestically. Even if it continues to grow, there won’t be much progress. Don’t you want Yili to step out of the country and see the world?”

Upon hearing this, both Chen Li and Si Cong were stunned. Si Cong didn’t doubt for a moment that Zhou Chao was joking.

Originally, Si Cong thought it was just a matter of investing some money and shares, and reaching a few cooperative agreements. Who would have thought that Zhou Chao had plans to expand and strengthen?

Chen Li fell into silence. For a moment, he didn’t know how to respond to Zhou Chao’s words. Not being moved by them would be false, but letting Zhou Chao and Si Cong get involved meant that the final outcome of his company was uncertain.

The room fell silent. Seeing this, Si Cong tried to give Zhou Chao a few meaningful looks, hoping he would strike while the iron was hot, but Zhou Chao ignored him.

Seeing that Zhou Chao didn’t respond, Si Cong could only sit quietly on the sofa, drinking his tea.

After a while, it seemed that Chen Li had figured something out. He raised his head and said, “Young Master Zhou, let’s speak candidly...”

But before Chen Li could finish his sentence, a hurried knocking interrupted him.

All eyes turned to the door, where Lin Wu pushed it open and walked in. “Boss, someone’s here to see you!”

Chen Li knew it was the small shareholders of his company, along with their incompetent sons.

“Young Master Zhou, they must be here. Let them in,” Chen Li said to Zhou Chao.

Liu Yang stood up from the ground, looking furious, as if he wanted to skin Zhou Chao alive. Liu Yun, on the other hand, seemed oblivious, allowing his son to roar loudly.

“Hehe, still as tough as before. I’m so scared. Come on, let’s hear who your cousin is, and see if he can scare me!” Zhou Chao looked at Liu Yang disdainfully.

Seeing Zhou Chao’s expression, Liu Yang felt belittled. He glanced at his father, who didn’t stop him, and then looked back at Zhou Chao with a fierce expression. “Just you wait!” he said, taking out his phone and dialing a number. Soon, the call connected.

“Xiao Yang, what’s wrong?” A somewhat lazy voice came from the other end of the line.

“Cousin, someone bullied me and made me kneel down to apologize!” Liu Yang stared at Zhou Chao as he spoke.

“What? Where’s your dad?” The lazy tone on the phone became more serious.

Liu Yang glanced at Liu Yun beside him, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said, “Next to me.”

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, as if thinking about something. After about ten seconds, a voice came through the phone, “Who bullied you?”

Upon hearing this, Liu Yang’s face showed a hint of satisfaction. He knew his cousin was going to help him seek “justice.”

“Cousin, the person is also from Jingdu, very young. Oh, by the way, I heard he’s the boss of some Dragonfly Group!”

“What’s his surname?” There was a sense of urgency in the voice on the phone.

Liu Yang didn’t notice the change in his cousin’s tone. He glanced at Zhou Chao and said, “Cousin, his surname is Zhou!”

The phone went silent directly. Just as Liu Yang was about to speak again, he heard his cousin say, “Give the phone to Zhou Chao.”

Hearing this, Liu Yang was taken aback for a moment, wondering how his cousin knew this person’s name was Zhou Chao.

Although he was puzzled, Liu Yang still walked up to Zhou Chao and said, “My cousin wants to talk to you!”

Zhou Chao vaguely heard the voice on the phone just now, although he didn’t hear it very clearly, he seemed to have heard that voice before.

Taking the phone, Zhou Chao didn’t immediately answer, but instead glanced at Chen Li, Liu Yun, and the others. Each of them had different emotions in their eyes.

With a slight smirk, Zhou Chao also wanted to see who this “cousin” really was. His identity probably wasn’t that simple.

“Hello, who am I speaking to?”
