My Ares Son-in-Law

Xiao Chen's words were full of strategy and wisdom. He knew that in this battle without gunpowder, it was crucial to remain calm and patient. He believed that only in this way could he take the initiative in this seemingly ordinary but mysterious battle and protect the interests of Su's Pharmaceuticals from being infringed.

"I understand." Zhang Tingsheng responded concisely and forcefully, then nodded, turned and walked into a carefully decorated office.

The location of this office is just right. Its huge floor-to-ceiling windows use one-way transparent glass, so one can clearly overlook what is happening outside from the inside, while the outside world is completely unaware of what is happening inside, providing him with an excellent observation angle.

Zhang Tingsheng closed the door gently and disappeared into the room, leaving only a determined back.

Sophie's gaze withdrew as Zhang Tingsheng left, and then fell gently on Xiao Chen.

She opened her red lips slightly, her tone full of concern and consideration: "Why don't you go and have a rest, Xiao Chen? I can handle this kind of thing myself, and you don't have to worry about these fighting and killing things anymore." There was a trace of heartache in her eyes, as if she wanted to share all the burdens for Xiao Chen.

Hearing this, Xiao Chen curled up a faint smile, which showed gratitude for Sophie's concern and confidence in his own abilities.

"It's okay," he said softly, his voice gentle but firm, "You handle your business, and I'll just smoke here quietly and enjoy the rare quiet time." As he spoke, he slowly walked to the window beside him, where a set of exquisite smoking utensils was placed, as if everything had been prepared for him.

Xiao Chen took out an exquisite cigarette from the cigarette box, gently held it between his fingers, and then lit it with a lighter.

As the first wisp of smoke slowly rose, his eyes became deep and distant, as if at this moment, all the fatigue and tension drifted away with the smoke.

It's not that he is really indifferent to what is about to happen, but he is observing everything in secret with a more calm attitude, ready to give the most powerful support at the critical moment.

Outside the window, the sun shines through the clouds, adding a bit of warmth and tranquility to this quiet moment. In this office, Xiao Chen and Sophie, although they do not speak, their tacit understanding and trust flow silently, making people feel an indescribable warmth and strength.

Soon, a group of people from the Chamber of Commerce came forward with hurried and arrogant steps. Their expressions revealed an unquestionable dominance, as if they were stepping into a territory that did not require respect.

The man walking in front, with a big belly and a menacing look, was none other than Long Er, the notorious captain of the detective team in the Chamber of Commerce. His eyes flashed with disdain and contempt. Obviously, he did not pay the slightest attention to the existence of Su's Pharmaceutical, not to mention Sophie, who was standing aside with a calm face but a look of tenacity. His eyes hardly stayed on her for a moment.

Following behind Long Er were two completely different followers. The first person that caught his eye was a woman in gorgeous clothes, with a graceful figure and delicate makeup that was almost enchanting. Every strand of her hair seemed to have been carefully groomed, exuding an alluring luster.

However, beneath this excessive attire, there is a subtle shrewdness and calculation hidden. Her identity is self-evident. She should be Ryuji's right-hand man or secretary, good at handling various complex affairs. She is also a bright business card for Ryuji in social occasions.

As for the other one, he had a completely different image. He was burly and muscular, revealing the traces of long-term martial arts training, and every step he took seemed steady and powerful. Although his face was stern, his eyes revealed his absolute loyalty and obedience to his master. Obviously, this person was Long Er's bodyguard, responsible for clearing all obstacles for Long Er when necessary. However, even in this world where the strong are respected, his strength seemed quite ordinary. According to rumors, he had only reached the Dragon Blood Realm, which might be just a trivial step in the eyes of a true strong man.

Ryuji unceremoniously sat down on the seemingly soft sofa in the middle of the living room. As his huge body fell down, the sofa instantly sank into an obvious hole, as if even the furniture was silently protesting against the weight of this uninvited guest.

He was casually fiddling with a document in his hand, his face full of impatience, as if a storm would erupt at any moment.

At this moment, the charming female assistant seemed particularly alert. She quickly stepped forward, took out a box of high-end cigars from her exquisite leather bag, and skillfully lit one for Long Er. At the same time, she did not forget to gently adjust the position of the ashtray to ensure that everything was under control.

Throughout, her movements were smooth and graceful, as if every detail had been carefully rehearsed and impeccable.

The air was filled with a faint smell of tobacco, which intertwined with the sudden tense atmosphere, making the whole scene more subtle and complicated. Sophie, on the other hand, remained calm and indifferent, as if all this had nothing to do with her. She just observed everything silently, thinking about how to deal with it in her heart.

Long Er smoked leisurely, and in the smoke, his face looked even more deep and mysterious, with a barely perceptible sneer on the corner of his mouth, as if he had already known the scene that was about to unfold. He did not rush to speak, but let the silence spread in the air, creating an invisible pressure.

Seeing this, the female assistant stepped forward at the right time. She cleared her throat and spoke in a clear and powerful voice with a bit of professionalism:

"Ms. Sophie, please allow me to formally introduce myself. I am an assistant in the Chamber of Commerce's detective team, responsible for conveying and implementing the decisions of my superiors.

Since entering the Tianhai market, your behavior seems to have deviated from the track of fair competition. According to the reports we have received from many parties, you have engaged in bullying the weak and bullying the small. These behaviors have seriously undermined the business order in this area and brought immeasurable losses to many small and medium-sized enterprises. "

At this point, the assistant's eyes became particularly sharp. She gently unfolded the investigation order in her hand and slowly waved it in front of Sophie's eyes. The bright red seal and cold words on the document seemed to carry an irresistible force:

"Therefore, after careful discussion and decision-making within the Chamber of Commerce, we have decided to conduct a comprehensive and in-depth investigation of Su's Pharmaceuticals. This investigation order is the official authorization for our actions."

The female assistant spoke slowly, but every word was powerful. She paused to give Sophie enough time to digest this sudden news.

Then, she continued: "During the investigation, in order to ensure the fairness and effectiveness of the investigation, Su Pharmaceuticals will be temporarily prohibited from conducting any form of commercial activities." (End of this chapter)
