“I saw you guys chatting for so long from afar just now, I thought you already knew each other. Jingzhou, let me introduce you. This is our old sect master’s favorite successor, Mr. Quan Jue,” Zhuang Fu introduced.
Quan Jingzhou’s legs went limp and he almost slumped to the ground.
His current state could only be described as “being struck by lightning”.
Quan Jingzhou was dumbfounded. He couldn’t understand how it could be Quan Jue!
“Aiyo, Jingzhou, what’s wrong? Do you know Mr. Quan Jue?” Zhuang Fu was still pretending to be ignorant. His acting skills were impeccable. He looked at Quan Jue and asked, “Mr. Quan Jue, do you know Jingzhou? He just said that he wants to work with our Xuan Sect. The Quan Corporation he works for is very powerful. What do you think?”
With Zhuang Fu’s words, it was like he had handed the life and death of the Quan Corporation over to Quan Jue.
With a single nod or shake of his head, Quan Jue could directly determine the Quan Corporation’s future!
Quan Jingzhou looked at Quan Jue with a trembling expression.
“Mr. Quan, what did I say? With me around, the Quan Corporation can forget about collaborating with the Xuan Sect,” Quan Jue said with a mocking smile.
Quan Jingzhou’s body trembled as if he was spasming. He took deep breaths. “You planned all this from the beginning?”
“I was the one who asked the Xuan Sect to send you an invitation.” Quan Jue didn’t answer his question directly. Instead, he continued in a mild tone, “I made you lose your position as the chairman of the Quan Corporation. I saw that despite your desperate situation, you still don’t know who your real enemy is. The least I can do is to let you die in peace.”
Quan Jingzhou clutched his chest tightly and almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
He had been tricked. He thought that he still had a chance to make a comeback, but he didn’t expect Quan Jue to figure out his scheme. He had lured him into a carefully arranged trap.
Not only did Quan Jue make him lose his position as the chairman, but he was also now slapping him right in the face.
So it was all fake from the beginning. Quan Jue had never been at a disadvantage when playing against him.
Quan Jue had the Xuan Sect behind him!
Quan Jingzhou thought of his plans over the past few days. It was never possible from the start.
Quan Jue already knew that his actions were useless, but he still let him do it.
Quan Jue wanted him to know that it was useless no matter how much he struggled.
Quan Jingzhou suddenly felt as if a knife was twisting in his heart. He couldn’t breathe and fainted from anger.
Quan Yan was shocked. He quickly held his shoulder and shook him hard. “Daddy, don’t scare me! Daddy, wake up!”
“Third Elder, Mr. Quan and First Young Master Quan Yan need to rest. Please ask them to leave,” Quan Jue said expressionlessly.
Zhuang Fu looked at the unconscious Quan Jingzhou and felt the thrill of revenge.
He had never forgotten the humiliation he suffered when he was in university.
Zhuang Fu felt very satisfied upon seeing Quan Jingzhou like this today.
Soon, the security guards “politely escorted” Quan Jingzhou and Quan Yan out.
When the others at the banquet saw this farce, they couldn’t help sighing in their hearts.
Everyone knew about the internal strife in the Quan family. They thought that with Quan Jingzhou stepping down as chairman while Quan Jue’s company was on the brink of collapse, the father-son battle would end with both sides suffering heavy losses.
Who would have thought that Quan Jue had been pretending to be weak all this while?
