Chapter 465 Shen Tianhuan Returns To The Company



Shen Tianhuan, despite his extraordinary strength, immense power, and immense wealth, knew that he would never be able to become someone like Sikong Yun in his lifetime. The more he became a War God-level expert, the more he understood the cruelty of the battlefield outside the domain.

Sikong Yun was able to achieve great victories on the battlefield outside the domain, establish a vast territory, and leave a lasting mark in history. This time, upon returning to China, apart from attending the family's board meeting, his most important objective was to participate in the Enthronement Ceremony and witness the magnificence of the Great King.

Therefore, the immediate priority was to see how the company had developed and strive to obtain an invitation to the Enthronement Ceremony.

Shen Dongshan and Shen Deng exchanged a glance, seeing the treachery in each other's eyes. They immediately turned and got into the car, accompanying Shen Tianhuan back to the company.

Upon arriving at the company's entrance, Shen Dongshan spoke up, "Dad, there is something I must tell you, be prepared."

"What is it?" Shen Tianhuan asked.

"There has been a major incident in the company. The head of the security department, who was arranged by Shen Bing, was murdered by one of his subordinates," Shen Dongshan said in a low voice.

Shen Tianhuan's expression darkened upon hearing this. "What exactly happened?"

"The details are still under investigation, but once we return to the company, everything will become clear," Shen Dongshan replied.

Shen Tianhuan furrowed his brow but didn't show any other reaction. He simply said, "Fine, we'll discuss it when we get back."

Shen Dongshan and his son frowned slightly at his response. They had intended to let Shen Tianhuan see how Shen Bing managed the company and deliver a heavy blow to make Old Master lose trust in Shen Bing. That's why they had brought up the incident on the way.

They had expected Shen Tianhuan to be angry, but they hadn't anticipated that Old Master would react so calmly, without any anger or even a reprimand.

"It seems that Old Master's temperament has mellowed not only in terms of his cultivation but also since the kidney transplant," Shen Dongshan thought to himself.

He knew his father's temperament very well. Even the slightest displeasure would trigger his wrath. Once, when a high-ranking general under Lafayette offended him, Shen Tianhuan had beaten the man to the point of disability.

Although the matter was later resolved after Lafayette intervened, with the Shen family paying a heavy price, Shen Tianhuan had no regrets. He remained hot-tempered and impulsive. Any dissenting words would ignite his fury, leading to physical altercations.

Never in their wildest dreams did they expect that Old Master would remain so calm now, leaving Shen Dongshan a bit uncertain about what was going on in Shen Tianhuan's mind.

However, he refrained from pushing the matter further. After Shen Tianhuan spoke, Shen Dongshan also fell silent.

If he said too much at this point, it might give Old Master the impression that he was gloating over the misfortune.

About half an hour later, the Rolls-Royce arrived back at Danfeng Group.

After getting out of the car, Shen Tianhuan said calmly, "Let's go to the security department first."

Shen Dongshan didn't dare to defy him and immediately led Shen Tianhuan to the security department.

Inside the security office, everyone was immersed in sorrow. They appeared listless and fearful. No one had expected Chen Yong to suddenly commit such an act. In response, they had emptied their water cups, even the water from the water dispenser, and had called for fresh water to be delivered.

A sense of unease prevailed.

Shen Tianhuan observed for ten minutes but remained expressionless as he said, "I want to see the body."

"Dad, it's not auspicious to see the body...," Shen Dongshan said.

Shen Tianhuan turned to look at Shen Dongshan. "Can't I see it?"

Shen Dongshan trembled all over and quickly said, "You can. I'll take you there now."

Although Shen Tianhuan's gaze wasn't cold or sharp, it carried a special sense of majesty that Shen Dongshan dared not defy.

Helplessly, he could only lead Shen Tianhuan to the mortuary where Wang Chao's body was being kept.

Their pharmaceutical group was quite professional, and the facilities in their mortuary were much more advanced than those in hospitals.

Wang Chao's body was still there, not yet taken away.

Shen Tianhuan walked in, lifted the white cloth, carefully examined the body, and asked, "Wasn't the deceased's family notified?"

Shen Dongshan shook his head. "Tomorrow is the board meeting, and I'm worried that this matter will be exploited by our opponents, causing a huge uproar and affecting the company's interests."

"So, I suppressed the matter and planned to communicate with the deceased's family after the board meeting tomorrow."

Shen Tianhuan nodded and said calmly, "Alright, you handled it well. What about Shen Bing? Why haven't I seen her?"

"Perhaps she's in her office dealing with her own matters," Shen Dongshan replied.

"Let's go and see."

Shen Tianhuan led the way out of the morgue.

After Shen Dongshan and Shen Deng glanced at Wang Chao's 'body,' they also left.

"Dad, are you sure this person is dead?" Shen Deng asked.

Shen Dongshan glanced at Wang Chao and then at Shen Tianhuan walking ahead. He reached out and wrote a line on Shen Deng's back: "I arranged the poison. A drop of it is enough to kill an elephant, let alone Wang Chao."

After finishing writing, he said in a low voice, "This is not something you should be concerned about. You should focus on how the company is operating."

"Yes, Dad, you're right," Shen Deng pretended to be taught a lesson.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the entrance of Shen Bing's office.

The door was tightly closed!

However, through the glass door, they could see Shen Bing weeping.

Shen Dongshan called Shen Bing's secretary, Xiao He, over and asked, "What's the situation with President Shen?"

Xiao He glanced at Shen Bing's office, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "After Minister Wang died, President Shen has been in a state of self-destruction. She has been crying for two hours and hasn't done any work at all."

"As a result, our company missed a very important client."

"What kind of contract would that client have brought?" Shen Deng asked.

Xiao He raised one finger and said, "One billion."

Upon hearing this, Shen Tianhuan's expression darkened.

A loss of one billion!

Although Shen Tianhuan was wealthy, one billion was not a small amount, and it made him shudder internally.

After Xiao He finished speaking, she opened her mouth but hesitated, seeming a bit afraid.

"Secretary Xiao He, don't worry about anything. Just speak up. Our Chairman is here, and no one will trouble you. But, you must tell the truth and not make things up," Shen Dongshan said.

"Our Chairman likes straightforward people. However, you must be honest and not fabricate anything," Shen Deng added.

Xiao He was still hesitant to speak, but she timidly looked at Shen Tianhuan, waiting for his approval.

"Speak," Shen Tianhuan uttered calmly.

With his approval, Xiao He breathed a sigh of relief, seemingly relieved, and began, "Our company has been very busy with various financial and data summaries in preparation for the board meeting. However, after Minister Wang's death, President Shen has been in a state of apathy. Not long ago, Tian Shen Pharmaceutical Group wanted to collaborate with our company on a major project."

"However, President Shen immersed herself in grief and directly refused, even calling to tell the people from Tian Shen Pharmaceutical Group to get lost and not bother her."

"And also..."

She spoke rapidly, mostly mentioning how Shen Bing had dropped the ball at critical moments, causing the company to incur losses in the billions.

The more she spoke, the darker Shen Tianhuan's expression became.

"Alright, stop talking!" Shen Dongshan pretended to scold while gesturing for Xiao He to stop speaking.

"Let her speak!" Shen Tianhuan said sternly.

"Dad, Shen Bing is usually very capable at work. This time, it's mainly because of this major incident that she has been a bit off," Shen Dongshan explained.

"Yes, Grandfather, Shen Bing has always managed the company exceptionally well. Even I can't compare to her. The deceased person may have had a significant relationship with her, which is why she's acting like this," Shen Deng added.

They father and son were both pretending, making excuses for Shen Bing in their words.

This was a tactic of advancing by retreating.

They were being hypocritical in order to present a favorable image to Old Master, showing that they were dedicated solely to the company and had no intentions of seizing power or anything else.

Shen Tianhuan immediately caught onto the key information. "Are you saying that Shen Bing and the deceased Wang Chao had an extraordinary relationship?"

"Yes, from what I know, Minister Wang saved President Shen's life several times. Recently, President Shen was often seen with Minister Wang," Xiao He replied.

"Are you suggesting that President Shen fell in love with Minister Wang?" Shen Dongshan asked.

Xiao He shook her head. "I'm not sure, but I found a photo of Minister Wang in President Shen's drawer when I was cleaning her office."

Shen Tianhuan, Shen Dongshan, and Shen Deng looked at each other.

"Dad, it seems like Shen Bing has truly fallen for him. No wonder she's acting this way," Shen Dongshan said.

"Sigh!"

Shen Deng sighed heavily and said, "Shen Bing has had such an unfortunate life. Her mother died early, her father disappeared, her younger brother is seriously ill, and she's all alone, without anyone to rely on."

"Now, when she finally developed feelings for a man, that man was killed by a subordinate. Sigh! I truly feel so sorry for her."

After saying that, he pretended to look at Shen Bing in the room with great concern.

Shen Tianhuan furrowed his brows slightly and said, "Since that's the case, let her calm herself down first. Dongshan, organize your team immediately and report to me on the company's situation."

After speaking, he strode towards Shen Dongshan's office.

Shen Dongshan's expression turned ecstatic.

The Chairman usually listened to the President's financial reports and the company's summary of the past year. Now, Shen Tianhuan specifically asked him to report, clearly treating him as the President.

He quickly gathered his team and instructed the finance department to bring all the account books.

"Dad, are you sure about this?" Shen Deng whispered.

Financial reports are usually only accessible to the President.

"Don't worry, your dad is a master strategist. He always has plans in place. How could he not be prepared?" Shen Dongshan smiled.

He closed the door and curtains of his office and set up a projector, projecting various reports from his computer onto the wall. He explained the company's operations, profits, and losses in recent years to Shen Tianhuan one by one.

During the presentation, he was fair, giving credit where it was due, whether it was his own or Shen Bing's, without seeking personal gain.

He understood his father well and knew that Shen Tianhuan detested people who claimed credit for others' achievements.

So, he made sure to be fair and just during the presentation.

Shen Tianhuan nodded repeatedly as he looked at the reports and listened to the presentation.

"Dongshan, you and Shen Bing have done very well in these years."

After Shen Dongshan successfully finished his report, Shen Tianhuan looked up at him, pondered for a moment, and asked, "So, which direction should the company focus on for future development?"

Shen Dongshan's expression brightened, and he said, "We should delve deeper into the pharmaceutical market, expand horizontally, and diversify the company. While maintaining our presence in the pharmaceutical market and exploring further opportunities, we should actively develop in areas such as film and television, investment, and finance."

"That's a very good idea."

Shen Tianhuan nodded and said, "Shen Bing has suffered a significant blow, and she won't be able to recover in the short term. I plan to give her some time to rest."

"Tomorrow, you will preside over and report at the shareholders' meeting."

"Is that alright?"

"No problem, absolutely no problem," Shen Dongshan quickly replied, filled with joy.

"Good, get ready then. Tomorrow, you will preside over the meeting. Remember one important thing: make sure to obtain an invitation to the Coronation Ceremony. I have some matters to attend to, so I'll leave first."

Shen Tianhuan put down the reports and left.

After Shen Tianhuan left, Shen Deng's face lit up with joy. He laughed heartily and said, "Dad, congratulations. After tomorrow, you might become the President of the company."

"Do not speak so loudly. The dust hasn't settled yet," Shen Dongshan chuckled.

"With Wang Chao gone, a strong ally for Shen Bing, and her currently immersed in grief, many of her supporters have already been won over or sidelined by you. What does she have to compete with you?" Shen Deng beamed.

"During her most vulnerable moments, we strike. I believe that tomorrow, you'll be able to snatch the power from Shen Bing's hands. The power will be in your grasp."

He could not contain his stimulation at the thought.

If Shen Dongshan became the President, he would become the crown prince of the Shen family. After Shen Tianhuan's death, the entire Shen family would be under his control.

"Let's wait and see what happens tomorrow."

Shen Dongshan looked at Shen Tianhuan's departing figure, his expression solemn. He uttered in a deep voice, "Old Master also mentioned that the most important thing is to obtain an invitation to the Coronation Ceremony. It's not a simple task."
