Chapter 551: Chapter 551: Who is the traitor?_1 Chapter 551: Chapter 551: Who is the traitor?_1 Xu Zhao knew the share structure of Yifan Beauty Company.

Although Xu Yixue owned some shares, it was not on behalf of the Xu Family.

Moreover, several major powers and families in Zhonghai also owned some shares in the company.

However, these were not words for him to say to Xu Jianglong.

His position was too low, and he lacked the qualifications.

For a moment, he didn’t know how to reply to Xu Jianglong.

Seeing that Xu Zhao didn’t respond, Xu Jianglong couldn’t be bothered to engage him further and pushed him aside, heading towards the elevator.

Xu Zhao naturally followed closely.

When the elevator reached the first floor, a young man walked out, his eyes glued to his cellphone, a smile still on his face.

Xu Jianglong paused, suddenly intrigued, and stopped in front of the young man.

The young man, realizing someone was blocking his path, looked up and saw Xu Jianglong.

After a second of surprise, his expression quickly turned cold, and he indifferently asked, “What are you doing here?”
“Yun Jie, haha, I didn’t expect to run into you here.”
Xu Jianglong replied with a smug smile, “I’m here, obviously not for leisure.

I’m representing the family to inspect our business here.”
This young man was Xu Yunji.

Xu Yunji had been particularly enthusiastic about his Cultivation these past few days.

Had it not been for Xu Yixue asking him to pick something up from the company, he would have continued to hole up in the villa, engrossed in his practice and committed to Cultivation.

“Then why are you here?

You should be inspecting Yifan Media Company,” Xu Yunji couldn’t help being puzzled.

“Yun Jie, I haven’t come to the wrong place.

Isn’t this also part of the family’s assets?” Xu Jianglong chuckled, looking around as if everything was as it should be.

Xu Yunji’s gaze turned icy, and he said coldly, “I’m afraid you’re still living in a dream.

In the family’s assets in Zhonghai, originally there was only a third-rate Xinghai Media.

ƝονǤօ.ᴄօ

Now, Yifan Media Company, strictly speaking, is no longer solely owned by the family.

And Yifan Beauty Company has nothing to do with the family.

It’s my brother-in-law’s business.

Although my sister also owns some shares, she represents herself, not the family.”
As the only son of Family Head Xu Xuanyi, Xu Yunji, according to the succession rules, was the primary candidate for inheritance.

So no matter how foolish, he wouldn’t do anything to harm the family’s interests.

However, no matter how overbearing and pestering, one must respect the fact.

Xu Jianglong, though always invoking the family’s interests, was just grandstanding; all his actions served the interests of his own faction.

“Calling him ‘brother-in-law’ already?

That seems a bit premature.”
At these words, Xu Jianglong narrowed his eyes, his smile vanished, and he said sharply, “Your sister can claim that after she wins the bet with the family.

Otherwise, even if they are married, he won’t become your brother-in-law.

As for Yifan Beauty Company…”
Xu Jianglong took a step forward, leaned close to Xu Yunji’s ear, and whispered, “Hehe… such a company with a vast future and huge interests, anyone would want to hold it in their hands, and the family is no exception.

We need to secure the title first, then find ways to buy the shares from other people in the company.”
After listening, Xu Yunji stepped back, a flash of disgust in his eyes and a sneer on his lips, mocking, “Aren’t you taking it for granted?

My brother-in-law owns the majority stake, absolute control; can you do anything useful even if you get your hands on all the remaining shares?”
“Heh…

that’s a matter for the future.

Whether it’s useful or not, you’ll see in time,” Xu Jianglong smiled wickedly, feigning mystery.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Xu Zhao wisely backed away.

The two were direct descendants of the family, discussing matters related to the family’s inner circles.

With the family’s two major factions in conflict, it was not his place as a lowly figure to overhear anything; doing so could easily lead to his own demise.

Seeing Xu Jianglong’s confident demeanor, Xu Yunji felt a sinking feeling in his heart and said coldly, “Make yourself clear.”
Xu Jianglong couldn’t help but smile smugly, leisurely saying, “Alright, I’ll speak plainly.

Your sister should have made it very clear at the press conference.

It took an enormous amount of energy, capital, and material resources to finally develop these three products after countless failures.”
“The timeline for product development spans at least several years, yet Xu Fan, a month ago, remember what kind of condition he was in?

I think you know.

So, here’s the question: how did a destitute castaway of a family, a daily drunkard and vagabond, manage to develop these?

He couldn’t even support himself, let alone afford a high-caliber research team?”
“Thus, it’s natural for people to assume that these scientific achievements come from the Xu Family, from a research team supported by the Xu Family, who then researched and developed these miraculous products.

Yifan Beauty is nothing but a thief who stole the research and technology and made the first move.

Consequently, we can take this to court and officially reclaim the scientific achievements that rightfully belong to the family.”
This argument was logical and self-consistent, convincing enough to make anyone nod in agreement and believe it to be true.

Yet, Xu Yunji’s face was as dark as water, and in that moment, Xu Jianglong was no relative of his in his eyes, but a shameless devil.

Choked with anger, he said hatefully, “Xu Jianglong…

aren’t you ashamed of the disgraceful things you’re doing?”
“Disgraceful?”
Xu Jianglong, as if he’d heard a joke, said with a sneer, “You have some nerve to say that.

In my opinion, it’s you and your sister’s behavior that’s the most disgraceful.”
“Alright, I really want to hear this.

Tell me, what heinous things have my sister and I done that you find so appalling?

If you have the guts, say it all to my face.”
“Since you’re asking for humiliation, I’ll satisfy you.”
Xu Jianglong raised his voice and said, “Xu Fan, a mere vagabond, couldn’t have stolen the scientific achievements from my Xu Family by himself.

There must have been someone helping him, and the probability of an inside job is higher.

So, who’s the mole?” With that, his gaze kept darting toward Xu Yunji.

The insinuation in his words was clear—he was accusing Xu Yixue and Xu Yunji of stealing the family’s scientific achievements to benefit outsiders.

It must be said, the highest realm of lying is not successfully deceiving everyone, but even convincing the liar himself of the lies.

And Xu Jianglong seemed to have integrated himself into the lie.

Swish!

Suddenly accused of such slanderous charges, Xu Yunji was instantly enraged.

His eyes flashed with intensity as he stared at Xu Jianglong, and swiftly, he reached out, grabbing Xu Jianglong’s neck and lifting him into the air with one hand.

Xu Jianglong’s face instantly turned to shock, his complexion flushed red.

Feeling Xu Yunji’s astonishing strength, at that moment, he felt his life was in danger, like a chick easily pinched in someone’s grasp.

“Xu Jianglong, your glib tongue and your ability to stir up trouble and turn things upside down won’t end well for you,” Xu Yunji said coldly.

“You…

let me go!”
Xu Jianglong struggled to breathe, his teeth clenched with hatred as he spoke.

Xu Yunji, of course, had no intention of really hurting him, and with a casual toss, he threw Xu Jianglong against the wall, causing him to crumple as if his entire skeleton had come apart.

Having learned his lesson, Xu Jianglong sat collapsed on the floor, glaring at Xu Yunji, but he dared not spout any more nonsense.

He feared that if he truly angered this guy, he wouldn’t be able to escape a severe beating from Xu Yunji.

“Ah Jie, you’ve got nerve.

I won’t let you off easily,” he threatened.

Xu Jianglong, seething with rage, bitingly issued his threat, “Just wait.

The family will soon send over a research team to confront you, and with evidence and testimony, I want to see how someone with the Xu surname can defend himself.

You’ll be left with no dignity, and you won’t have the face to return to the family.”
Having said this, Xu Jianglong struggled to his feet using his hands, gave a cold huff, and stormed off with a face full of fury.
