Chapter 118 The Xiao family is too high a mile for them

Chen Ming never expected that Xiao Jingchen would personally come all the way here for such a small contract.

In Chen's office, Xiao Jingchen sat down in Chen Ming's seat without a care in the world, his slender fingers tapping lightly on the desk a few times.

Even though he didn't say anything, Chen Ming inexplicably felt a chill run down his spine.

"Why did President Xiao come in person today? He didn't even give us a heads-up. We haven't been very hospitable."

Chen Ming couldn't help but speak up, and the relentless banging finally stopped.

Xiao Jingchen slightly raised his eyes, a smile playing on his lips, but his voice was chillingly cold.

"I heard that President Chen is somewhat dissatisfied with my Xiao Group's employees. As the president, I should of course come and find out the truth."

"What is it that you're unhappy about?"

Chen Ming's office wasn't large, but Xiao Jingchen still exuded an air of nobility as he sat there, casually glancing at the person in front of him.

Chen Ming even felt cold sweat break out on his back.

If he had known that Xiao Jingchen would be summoned over something so trivial, he would never have agreed to Jiang Rao's suggestion.

"Mr. Xiao, you're joking. Your company's employees performed very well. I was out of my mind at the time. It's all my fault."

"How about this? I'll sign the contract right now!"

Seeing the documents in Xiao Jingchen's hand, Chen Ming wished he could write his name on them right now.

But as soon as he took a step, someone glanced at him casually.

He immediately dared not move an inch.

"Not thinking straight? Ha."

Xiao Jingchen picked up the document and, under Chen Ming's expectant gaze, tore it open, scattering the pieces on the ground.

"It seems that our Xiao family is not qualified to do business with you. I, Xiao Jingchen, cannot afford this cooperation."

As soon as he finished speaking, cold sweat dripped down Chen Ming's forehead.

He hadn't originally intended to refuse the cooperation; he was just going along with Jiang Rao.

But now that Xiao Jingchen has spoken, their cooperation is completely hopeless.

However, Chen Ming's biggest worry right now is not this matter, but Lin Ran.

He knew that Lin Ran was Xiao Jingchen's wife, but Jiang Rao clearly said that the two of them were not compatible. Otherwise, even if he had a hundred times the courage, he would not have dared to do such a thing.

Just as he was hesitating whether to explain, the office door was pushed open.

Zhou Qing walked in, holding something in his hand.

"Mr. Xiao, everything that happened at the club is here. Shall we look at it now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Mingxin jumped.

He tried to stop Zhou Qing, but his limbs went weak, and he didn't even have the strength to stand up. He collapsed to the ground.

Xiao Jingchen had considered that Lin Ran might be in some trouble, but he didn't expect Chen Ming to be so bold as to say such a thing.

After watching the entire video, Xiao Jingchen raised his head expressionlessly and looked at Chen Ming, his cold gaze as if he were looking at a dead man.

"Mr. Xiao, I... I wasn't thinking straight at the time, I was talking nonsense, I will never do it again."

"Really? You seem to be quite clear-headed."

Xiao Jingchen spoke slowly and deliberately, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

"It seems that Mr. Chen is too idle on weekdays. I should find more things for you to do, so that you won't have time to do extra things."

Xiao Jingchen spoke slowly, and seeing Chen Ming's pale face, he stood up with satisfaction, ready to leave.

"No! Xiao Jingchen, you can't do this!"

"Aren't you afraid of pushing me too far! Although our Chen family is not as powerful as the Xiao family, a full-force attack from us would be enough to give you a hard time!"

Chen Ming clearly had no other choice. Watching Xiao Jingchen's departing figure, he blurted out these words without thinking.

He regretted it as soon as he finished speaking, but Xiao Jingchen had already stopped.

"Really? Then I'll wait for Mr. Chen to make his move."

Xiao Jingchen snorted coldly, his tone full of disdain.

He usually hates being threatened, but Chen Ming is quite bold to say such things.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Ming, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly came to his senses.

He frantically grabbed his phone and called Jiang Rao.

These are all things Jiang Rao has to do; they have nothing to do with him. He was just following her instructions!

He absolutely cannot live without the Chen family!

With trembling hands, Chen Ming dialed the phone again and again, finally hearing Jiang Rao's voice on the seventh call.

"Chen Ming, are you crazy? Why are you calling me so many times?"

Jiang Rao had a face mask on, and her speech was somewhat unclear.

"I must be crazy to agree to those demands of yours!"

Jiang Rao was taken aback, realizing that something was off about Chen Ming's tone.

"what happened?"

"Xiao Jingchen just came to see me. He knows what I said and now he's going to take action against the Chen family!"

"What did you say? How could that be? Brother Jingchen was clearly very angry and even chased Lin Ran away. How could he possibly come looking for you!"

"I didn't know that. Anyway, Xiao Jingchen is going to take action against the Chen family now. I've been doing whatever you told me to do, so you can't just abandon me!"

Chen Ming gripped the phone tightly as if it were a lifeline.

But Jiang Rao's voice didn't come from the other end for a long time.

Chen Ming glanced at the screen in a panic; Jiang Rao had already hung up the phone sometime earlier.

When he called back, he found that he had been blocked.

With a thud, the phone fell to the ground.

Chen Ming's hands were trembling uncontrollably.

Xiao Jingchen acted quickly, and soon Chen Ming's secretary rushed over.

"Mr. Chen, something terrible has happened! The Xiao family has issued a statement saying they will never cooperate with our company again."

"What are you yelling about? It's just the Xiao family. If they don't cooperate with us, there are other companies, right? Do you think our company will go out of business without them?"

Chen Ming mumbled to himself, trying to comfort himself, but his hands at his sides continued to tremble.

The secretary was startled, but still mustered up the courage to continue.

"Mr. Chen, quite a few companies are already terminating their contracts with us. At this rate, our company will probably be..."

"impossible!"

Chen Ming suddenly stood up and looked shakily at the termination documents in his secretary's hand.

"Haha, it's all fake, I don't believe it, I don't believe it!"

Chen Ming acted like a madman, tearing the documents in his hand to shreds and scattering them, then kicking his secretary out and closing the office door.

“My Chen family business will never fall. As long as we have funds, everything will be fine.”

Chen Ming muttered to himself, hurriedly picked up his phone from the ground, found his old friends, and called them one by one.

Undoubtedly, those people rejected him for various reasons.

There were even quite a few people who, like Jiang Rao, simply blocked them.

Chen Ming was completely at a loss and collapsed to the ground, his face ashen.
