City B

The weather was sunny and filled with the feeling of prosperity. In a large manor on the outskirts of the city, there was a sea of green grass and a myriad of beautiful flowers. It was bustling with noise and excitement.

This was the most famous resort under the jurisdiction of the Ji Group of the top ten clans in the imperial city. It was also the biggest and most famous leisure place in the imperial city. Whatever activities the Ji Clan had would be held here, it was Ji Chongde's birthday celebration today.

Although he was eighty years old, he was still old and strong, with a strong waist. Under the support of his red festive attire, he looked radiant and spirited. He was skillfully entertaining all the guests, which included politics, business, acting, and the body.

There were a total of eighty tables on the wide lawn. On the table, the red cloth glistened, and flowers, champagne, and wine were everywhere. The rich and powerful people of the host's family could be seen in the corner, while two tall and straight figures could be seen quietly enjoying the lively scene in front of them.

The young man wrapped in a black suit had a stern face and delicate facial features. His deep and bright black eyes indifferently swept over the busy crowd at the reception area. A hint of a cold smile gradually appeared on his lips. Every year since he could remember, he would dress like this, dressed in noble and elegant clothes. He would quietly and obediently stay in the corner, silently watching the glory and laughter of others.

"I promise I won't need five years. I will definitely make it so that they won't be able to laugh anymore!" Another young man in a silver grey suit harrumphed.

The man in the black suit withdrew his gaze from the welcome, looking at the man in the silver grey suit, he answered with interest, "Not going to take five years?" "My plan is for the next ten years. It seems that I have to tell everyone to let you take the lead in this fight."

"Uh, don't play with me. I'm just trying to get better, am I?"

"Which one of your eyes isn't good to see me?"

"…"

"If the little guy can't bear it, then he's plotting something big." Her lips parted slightly, and the man in black spoke calmly once again.

The man in the silver grey suit's eyes lit up immediately and he asked excitedly, "A big scheme? How about you, the wise and mighty Young Master Ji who is unrivalled in the world, what do you plan to do next? The foundation of the King's Age has already been set, and the goal of putting on an act for the old man has been achieved. This step can be considered as a great success, so there should be a new strategy for the next step, right? "

"If I'm not wrong, they will attack me using their King's Age."

"What?"

Ji Chenxi raised his hand, signalling for him not to panic, and maintained his calm demeanor, "Continue doing your work here, with me and Qing Ze here, the following arrangements will proceed as I want, you don't have to worry."

After hearing this, the dignified expression on the man in the silver grey suit was finally relieved. He subconsciously nodded and his heart was unconsciously filled with admiration and appreciation.

Not only did Chenxi have outstanding talent and wisdom, he had an extraordinary sense of touch towards business opportunities, and also had astonishing courage and leadership skills. All these years, his companions had watched him patiently endure, keeping a low profile, but each step he took was extremely difficult. All of these were things that no one could hope to achieve, and they were deeply impressed by it as well. In truth, although they were not as powerful as Chenxi, it was not impossible for them to create a world based on their abilities and abilities, but they were willing to follow behind Chenxi, sharing life and death with him, because power was available to everyone, and close friends were hard to come by.

Of course, the most important factor was trust. If Chenxi gave them a 100% confidence in himself, then it would be equivalent to placing his life on their shoulders. If any one of them betrayed him, he could very well fall into the abyss of no return.

T City was an extremely important city in the country, it had a close relationship with the economy of B City. Chenxi had chosen to start his business there, making old man Ji Chongde feel that this bastard was only trying to show off his power by not fighting for his grandson's position. In reality, he was building his own business kingdom there, occupying the entire economic circle of T City.

Chenxi did not tell everyone in detail about the specific strategy, and everyone did not ask anymore, because they knew that when the time came, Chenxi would not hold back at all, what they needed to do was to listen to Chenxi's arrangements, take charge of everyone's orders, and complete their own missions.

This road was filled with excitement, thorns, and at the same time, it was extremely challenging. Even though the process was complex and dangerous, the result would surely be a smooth journey to the end.

"Chenxi."

Suddenly, a friendly voice called out, and a man in his forties wearing a military uniform that symbolized his high status walked towards them.

Ji Chenxi immediately stood up from the chair, his clear and cold voice revealed a rare form of respect, "Fourth Uncle."

"Hello, Fourth Uncle!" The man in the silver grey suit also stood up and greeted them.

The person looked at him and said sincerely, "Zhenglin is here as well. It's really his fortune that Chenxi has such a good brother like you."

"Fourth Uncle, you are the one who is important to Chenxi." It turned out that the man in the silver grey suit was called Gao Zhenglin, and was another good partner who had helped Ji Chenxi keep an eye on the Ji Group in the imperial city.

The middle-aged man who had just arrived was Ji Chenxi's father's half-brother, Ji Guofeng. Decades ago in China, the marriage laws did not provide for a single wife, and Ji Chongde had married a total of three women. His wife, Mu Wanren, had two daughters, and his second wife, Ji Chenxi's grandmother, had a son and a daughter.

The first time he met the Fourth Uncle was when he was very young, and he had just been bullied to the extreme. Curling up in the backyard, he cried in anger and grief, and just happened to be seen by the Fourth Uncle, who had just returned from the military. He was wearing a righteous and stern military uniform, and gently supported the Fourth Uncle with his warm and strong hands, saying to him, Chenxi, a manly man can sweat and bleed blood, but he cannot cry, he cannot solve everything, only by making himself strong can he protect himself, and also protect the person he wants to protect.

Fourth Uncle's words had a deep meaning, he understood it clearly but did not really understand it. From then on, he never cried again, even when he had met with more difficult and embarrassing situations.

Ever since he could remember, the Fourth Uncle had helped him countless times. He had taught him many things about life, how to endure and be strong, how to bend and bend, how to show off his abilities, and how to conceal his strengths. These were all taught to him by the Fourth Uncle. Fourth Uncle thought about it more than his father, thinking that he knew about the games played by the big families, and that he had always wanted to be a soldier. Now that he was holding an important position in the military region of B City, he was a well-known person in the military and political world.

As Ji Chenxi recalled his memories, Ji Guofeng sat down slowly, looking at the person in front of him with a gratified look in his eyes. He did not conceal his happiness at all, "The shares of King's Age have been rising continuously, Chenxi, you are awesome.

Before Ji Chenxi could reply, Gao Zhenglin immediately responded, "Of course, who is our Boss Ji!"

"I heard from your Fourth Aunt that your mother's illness has recuperated in the past two days. All of you should try to persuade her that there are some things that do not belong to you, so there is no need to force it. In this world, there is no one who can truly survive without you."

Yes, anyone could die in this world if they didn't have someone. This was a principle that many people understood, but his pitiful mother was still bitterly insisting on it, not only making herself completely ruined, but also the people who truly loved, doted on, and hurt her to the core.

Stopping thinking, Ji Chenxi looked at the pair of blissful and loving silhouettes that Ji Guofeng passed by. His black eyes seemed to gradually turn as cold as ice, as his hands clenched into fists.

Ji Guofeng reached out his hand, and gently grabbed the back of Ji Chenxi's hand, and pinched it implicitly, feeling extremely pained.

Back then, when he proposed to Chenxi that he should develop his military career, he sincerely hoped that Chenxi could be like him, break away from their family business and live a peaceful and peaceful life that belonged to him. Chenxi had also helped him a lot, going to United States military academy for three years, each and every one of them being outstanding, and he had won more awards than any of the students. With such a result and honor, coupled with his special support, his return was fated to have a boundless future.

However, Chenxi actually told him that he wanted to go into the Ji Group.

This completely defied his expectations all those years ago! If the result was like this, why would he think of ways to have Chenxi go to military academy!

Just like how his close colleagues who found out that Chenxi had returned to Shang Hai were also confused and lamented. Chenxi must have gone to a foreign country for a few years and gotten drunk in water.

What made him even more curious was that a few months after Chenxi entered the Ji Group, he suddenly requested for the Old Man to tame him and develop his skills in T City so that he could be completely isolated from the rest of the Ji Group.

At that time, he really didn't understand what this nephew of his actually wanted to do. Later on, after watching Chenxi's development all the way, he finally managed to faintly comprehend a few things.

Not only was he a pillar of the military, he was also an outstanding figure in the business world. Sometimes, he couldn't help but think that if the Old Master had the heart to raise him, Chenxi would definitely do better than the real successor, and would be able to lead this huge and prosperous family that had flourished for hundreds of years to its peak. Unfortunately, some things were rules that had been set for hundreds of years, and it would not be easy to change them. Would his good Chenxi be able to overcome all these difficulties one day, overturn some unfair rules and achieve his final goal?

"Chenxi, no matter what you do, this Fourth Uncle hopes that you can consider yourself. In the short span of a few decades of life, don't treat yourself too shabbily, do you understand?" Ji Guofeng came out of his thoughts and spoke earnestly. His eyes were filled with affection.

All these years, he had watched Chenxi progress step by step towards becoming more powerful, and had also noticed the difficulty of each of Chenxi's steps. The burden that this child carried had already greatly exceeded the burden that one's own age should bear.

Ji Chenxi understood the Fourth Uncle's thoughts, but he did not feel wronged or disappointed at all. He replied with a light smile as usual, which was as deep and beautiful as the sea.
