Chapter 962: Trying to Steal a Chicken Only to End Up Losing the Rice

He sat on the sofa for a long time before he recovered, but his chest felt like foul air blocked it. He couldn’t breathe or swallow. It was uncomfortable.
From time to time, reporters would exclaim on the television that it was a miracle that these colored steel glass could be preserved intact under such fierce fire.
How was this possible?
Old Master Jian’s eyes were filled with disbelief. He had seen the news with his own eyes. The fire at the scene could destroy more than half of the goods in the warehouse. No matter what was inside, it was impossible to be spared.
However, the truth was that he had racked his brains and taken a risk. In the end, all his efforts were in vain. He even provided the opportunity for East Sea Real Estate to appear on the major news of commercial television stations for a few days, helping East Sea Real Estate create a wave of momentum.
Wasn’t this trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice?
“What’s wrong?”
The old lady realized that the old man’s expression was not right and rushed up to ask with concern. When she saw him holding his heart, she was even more worried. “Your heart is not feeling well? Wasn’t it fine this morning?”
Old Master Jian’s expression darkened, and he was even angrier. He stared at the television and didn’t respond.
Only then did the old lady notice the contents of the news. She looked at it and couldn’t help but sigh. “This is fate. Don’t even think about what shouldn’t happen.”
“Nonsense!” Old Master Jian suddenly roared and vented his anger. He roared, “Even if this small East Sea Real Estate is an iron wall, I will still destroy it!”
...
“Why do you have to do this?” The old lady frowned and said, “If they’re a powerful enemy in the future, would Changsheng sit idle if you reminded him? I’m afraid that you’ll do something irreversible if you push them too hard.”
“What you’re doing is dangerous enough. There’s no such thing as an impenetrable wall. Do you really think no one can find out what you’re doing?”
How could the old man listen to others now? He had been thinking about the Jian Group in the beginning, but after East Sea Real Estate resolved his methods one after another, he had already elevated this hatred to a personal grudge. Now, he did not like East Sea Real Estate no matter how he looked at it. Even if it had nothing to do with the Jian Group, he would make East Sea Real Estate suffer.
This was to vent the hatred in his heart!
“I’ll think of other ways to deal with them. Just wait and see!” The old man gritted his teeth, making the old lady’s scalp tingle.
However, at this moment, the old lady knew her words carried no weight, but she was worried that this old man would do something even more out of line. After all, they had been married for many years, and she knew the old man.
The old lady thought for a moment and couldn’t help but sigh. She said nothing else and turned around to go upstairs.
…
Xu Qianqian’s parents initially planned to come to Baiyun City to visit their daughter in the middle of the month, but it was the autumn harvest season in the countryside, so they delayed it until the end of the month.
Father Xu and Mother Xu were both from Liyang County and had been diligent farmers their entire lives. They had not seen much of the world and were not too calculative. However, they were a little dissatisfied that their daughter had found a boyfriend who was over ten years older than her.
After all, Father Xu was not even fifty years old, not much older than Wang Yunzhong.
However, now that their daughter was pregnant, the groom’s family took the initiative for them to get married. In addition, her daughter kept praising Wang Yunzhong for being good to her, so Father Xu and Mother Xu had no choice but to agree to this marriage.
This time, not only did the two families sit down to discuss the wedding, but it was also the first time Father Xu and Mother Xu had seen Wang Yunzhong.
