    Chapter 68: It’s All Fate!

    Shen Fei furrowed his brows, not intending to answer the phone.

    However, the ringing seemed like a death knell, urging him to pick up.

    “Who is it? What is it?” Shen Fei replied, somewhat irked.

    On the other end of the line, Jiang Tiancheng’s excited voice came through.

    “Brother Fei, wake up, wake up! Something big happened tonight!”

    Hearing this, Shen Fei’s drowsiness instantly vanished.

    “What happened?”

    “The broken nest at Tian Sheng Grand Hotel was finally destroyed! Fang Shengnian was arrested, and no one was spared! Also, Kong Shaqu’s uncle, a city leader, has been taken by the inspection office too! Hahaha, the Kong family is done for!”

    Jiang Tiancheng spoke rapidly, his voice filled with excitement.

    “Okay, so what?” Shen Fei replied indifferently.

    Though his tone was calm, inside he was stirring. The inspection office had really acted quickly.

    But it was a good thing!

    The land at Li Jia Zhuang could now be bought at a better price!

    Had the inspection office delayed for another ten or fifteen days, he would have had to painfully ask Hu Yuantai to withdraw the forty million funds!

    At that point, not only would he lose a few million, but he wouldn’t even be able to secure a third of the Li Jia Zhuang land!

    Though short of thirty million profit from shorting the Kong family group, compared to the skyrocketing prices of Li Jia Zhuang land, that was nothing!

    Though he could only secure a third of the land, the opportunity to make money was still substantial.

    So, when he had been anxious about the inspection office’s delay, he had already prepared to act on this plan!

    Fortunately, the inspection office had acted promptly!

    “Brother Fei, why aren’t you excited? The Kong family group has such close ties with Tian Sheng Grand Hotel! Kong Lianshun, the chairman of Kong family group, and Fang Shengnian, they were like brothers!”

    “Now that Fang Shengnian is arrested and Long Da can’t protect them anymore, isn’t the Kong family group finished?”

    “At that time, there will be a big disturbance in the stock market. What was once a sunrise stock will become a sunset stock! We will make a huge profit!”

    “Brother Fei, you’re amazing! You guessed all this!”

    Jiang Tiancheng was overly excited!

    But no one could blame him. The previous stone gambling event had already shown that Jiang Tiancheng and Kong Fuwen had deep grudges.

    So, even though Jiang Tiancheng would only make fifteen million from shorting Kong’s group this time, he was still overjoyed!

    He was excited because the Kong family was finally going down, and Long Da could no longer protect them!

    He couldn’t wait to see how Kong Fuwen would act when that time came!

    For these years, because of his old man’s advice, he had tolerated Kong Fuwen, but Kong Fuwen had grown increasingly arrogant, constantly insulting his family.

    While feeling elated, Jiang Tiancheng admired Shen Fei even more.

    To predict so accurately, this move was genius!

    “This is all just my guess!” Shen Fei replied nonchalantly.

    Knowing what was about to happen to the Kong family group, Shen Fei wasn’t excited at all.

    To avoid further questions from Jiang Tiancheng, he changed the subject.

    “How much did you make from shorting Kong’s group?”

    “Not much, thirty million! Hehe!” Jiang Tiancheng chuckled, then continued to praise Shen Fei.

    “Brother Fei, you’re truly amazing! From now on, I’ll always listen to you! If you tell me to go east, I won’t go west! I’ll follow you for life!”

    Shen Fei quickly refused.

    “I have a wife. You make your own decisions in life!”

    For Jiang Tiancheng and Hu Yuantai, it was a high-risk endeavor.

    But they both chose to trust themselves.

    For that reason, Shen Fei would never mistreat these two.

    “Brother Fei, don’t say that! I was just thinking about finding a wife myself!”

    After that, Jiang Tiancheng suddenly asked in confusion.

    “Brother Fei, I have a question, not sure if I should ask!”

    “Go ahead!” Shen Fei replied.

    “Back then, during the stone gambling event, if Kong Fuwen had been nice to you, would you have warned him about tonight’s events?”

    Shen Fei was silent for a moment before responding seriously.

    “Let’s not talk about how many families were ruined or how many lives were lost because of that Tian Sheng Grand Hotel nest!”

    “Even if I told Kong Fuwen about it, would he believe me? Kong family group’s development was going so well; Kong Fuwen would have thought I was crazy!”

    “It’s all fate! When the Kong family group is destined to fall, no one can help them!”

    Moreover, with the matter of the usury, Shen Fei would never help Kong Fuwen.

    Who asked the Kong family to aid the wrongdoers!

    Of course, Shen Fei didn’t say these words aloud.

    The two continued chatting for a while before ending the call.

    The next day.

    Cooking, eating, sending his wife and daughter to work.

    This day, Shen Fei went by just like any other, calm and uneventful.

    After finishing his tasks, he finally opened his phone.

    Only then did he see that Long Da had been arrested, and the absurd things Fang Shengnian did with Tian Sheng Grand Hotel had come to light.

    At the same time, the Kong family group was exposed.

    Details about the Kong family group’s ties to Tian Sheng Grand Hotel, and Long Da being a relative of Kong Lianshun, were all revealed.

    In no time, the Kong family group became the center of public debate.

    A strict investigation into the Kong family group became the loudest voice among the people following the case.

    Despite the Kong family group’s efforts to distance themselves from the media’s attention, it was completely futile.

    The stock price of the Kong family group dropped by fifteen points.

    Of course, this was just the beginning.

    In the future, the Kong family group’s stock would only continue to plummet!

    Meanwhile, as Shen Fei picked up Shen Jiayue, he received a call from Jiang Tiancheng.

    “Brother Fei, where are you?”

    “At the kindergarten gate, what’s up?” Shen Fei replied indifferently.

    “Brother Fei, let’s hang out today! I’ve already invited Yuantai! We’re just waiting for you! Oh, and my wife’s company is having a team-building event today!” Jiang Tiancheng said bluntly.

    Upon hearing this, Shen Fei nodded.

    “Alright, I’ll take Yueyue to your company first!”

    After hanging up, Shen Fei took Shen Jiayue and hailed a taxi to Chengyou Technology.

    “Hello, Mr. Shen! President Jiang instructed that when you arrive, just go to his office and wait!” the receptionist smiled.

    Shen Fei nodded.

    As he was about to walk ahead, a man passed by him.

    When Shen Fei caught a glimpse of the man’s face, he froze and turned around to look at the man’s back.

    “Mr. Shen?” the receptionist asked curiously.

    “Do you know that person?” Shen Fei asked casually.

    “I don’t know him, but President Jiang was just talking business with him! It seems they’re discussing something!” the receptionist answered truthfully.

    Shen Fei furrowed his brows without speaking.

    He wasn’t sure about the man’s face.

    But if the man looked like someone from his memory, Chengyou Technology and Jiang Tiancheng would face a huge disaster!
