Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

"Meng Chuan, you're here. Please have a seat."

In an elegant coffee shop.

Besides Shen Yue, there was also a woman dressed in an elegant manner.

Upon seeing Meng Chuan arrive, Shen Yue quickly got up and poured him a cup of coffee.

Shen Yue, who was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, was serving coffee to a stranger for the first time in her life.

Shen Yue found out about Shen Chong's arrest in less than an hour.

After all, Shen Chong was accompanied by bodyguards.

Shen Yue went to the police station that night and learned that her younger brother was involved in a case of hiring someone to commit assault.

The victim was Meng Chuan.

Shen Yue immediately contacted her family.

Aside from my father being abroad on a business trip and unable to return for the time being.

My mother, Chen Li, has already rushed over overnight.

That's why she contacted Meng Chuan early in the morning.

The first step in this case is to obtain Meng Chuan's forgiveness.

This is also the most difficult part.

For an average person, money might be the solution.

Shang'an Real Estate has no shortage of money.

The key point is that Meng Chuan was never short of money.

Therefore, Shen Yue adopted a very humble attitude.

"It's an honor that I can still walk to see you."

Meng Chuan smiled, picked up his coffee, and took a sip.

At the same time, he secretly observed the woman beside Shen Yue.

"This is my mom. She rushed over last night."

Shen Yue quickly introduced herself and then apologized to Meng Chuan:

"Meng Chuan, it's my fault for not disciplining him properly. I apologize to you on behalf of my brother and promise that nothing like this will ever happen again."

Shen Yue leaned forward slightly, showing great sincerity.

"Your assurances are useless. If they were, this shouldn't have happened in the first place."

Meng Chuan said calmly.

Although Meng Chuan spoke in a calm tone, he always gave people a sense of distance, as if he were unapproachable.

"Young man, my name is Chen Li, and I'm Shen Chong's mother. Just tell me directly! How much money would it take for you to issue a letter of forgiveness?"

Chen Li looked at Meng Chuan with arrogance.

He had a completely arrogant and condescending attitude.

"Mom, Meng Chuan, he..."

Shen Yue hurriedly tried to explain.

She wanted to tell Chen Li that Meng Chuan was not an ordinary young man.

Money can probably solve 99 percent of the world's problems.

This is the only thing that makes talking about money meaningless.

"Shut up! Your dad told you to keep a close eye on your brother, and you didn't even know he'd been arrested? Is this how you act as an older sister?"

Chen Li angrily rebuked Shen Yue.

Then he looked at Meng Chuan again:

"Young man, perhaps you don't know about Shang'an Real Estate, or how much influence the Shen family has in Shanghai."

"Let me say this much! Some things are best left unsaid. Being too eager to sell yourself won't do you any good."

Intimidation, this is blatant intimidation.

Meng Chuan was so angry he almost laughed:

"Ms. Chen Li, let me ask you this: if I had broken Shen Chong's leg last night, how much money would I need to pay to get your letter of forgiveness?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Li glared at Meng Chuan with hostility.

"Young man, I'm going to say something that might make you uncomfortable, but it's the truth."

"Some people are born different from others."

"Because many people spend their entire lives wanting to go to Rome, while some people are born in Rome."

“My Shen family has been simple for three generations. My son Shen Chong’s leg is not something that anyone can break.”

Shen Yue couldn't listen to it anymore.

"mom……"

Shen Yue still wanted to stop Chen Li.

It can be said that this is why Shen Chong is the way he is today.

It has a direct relationship with Chen Li.

It's just that no one dares to say it.

"Shut up! Remember this: you are just an adopted daughter of the Shen family."

Chen Li glared fiercely at Shen Yue and said:

“Your father dotes on you, but that doesn’t mean you can boss me around when he’s not around. It’s not your place to make decisions about the Shen family.”

Chen Li's words completely silenced Shen Yue.

She could only sit back down helplessly.

There might have been a chance for things to turn around.

It was completely hopeless now.

"Ms. Chen, as the saying goes: 'When people don't see eye to eye, even half a sentence is too much.'"

Meng Chuan slowly stood up and looked at Chen Li, saying:

"Since you believe that your Shen family is Rome, and that your son Shen Chong's legs are inherently more noble than mine, then use all your connections to get him out of here."

"As noble as you are, why do you need to come to me, an ignorant and arrogant young man, for a letter of forgiveness?"

With that, Meng Chuan turned and left.

Meng Chuan finally understood why Shen Chong was so arrogant and looked down on people.

The roots are right here!

If Chen Li speaks kindly, perhaps Meng Chuan will be able to deal with her leniently.

Although it's not enough to make Meng Chuan forgive Shen Chong.

But I won't let Meng Chuan fight the Shen family to the bitter end.

I'm sorry if you try to intimidate me.

In those ten years in his dream, Meng Chuan had already suffered enough injustice.

At that time, he was completely helpless, with no one to turn to for help.

This time, Meng Chuan will not be a doormat.

"Kid, I advise you not to be so stubborn. If you don't want to cause trouble, come find me before dark tonight, and I can still give you enough compensation. After tonight, even if you want to compromise, I may not be willing to accept it."

Watching Meng Chuan's departing figure, Chen Li suppressed her anger and shouted at him.

But Meng Chuan seemed not to hear it.

Their steps were without the slightest hesitation.

"Hmph! Country folk are all ungrateful bastards."

Chen Li snorted coldly and got up to leave.

However, before leaving, Chen Li glanced at Shen Yue beside her, intentionally or unintentionally.

It's unclear whether her last words were meant for Meng Chuan or Shen Yue.

In fact, Shen Yue's status in the Shen family is somewhat awkward.

First of all, she is an adopted daughter.

Secondly, despite graduating with a master's degree, she possesses exceptional abilities.

Despite being a woman, she has managed Shang'an Real Estate very well in the past two years.

The head of the Shen family, Shen Yue's adoptive father Shen An, even intends for her to succeed him.

In contrast, Shen Chong, the only son of the Shen family and the heir of Shang'an Real Estate, appears utterly dissolute and spoiled.

That's why Chen Li has found fault with Shen Yue in every way over the years.

Shen Yue's growth has seriously threatened Shen Chong's position as the heir to Shang'an Real Estate.

After Chen Li left the coffee shop.

Shen Yue pondered for a long time before finally taking out her phone:

"Dad, please come back soon..."

…………

Not long after Meng Chuan left the coffee shop, he received a call from Lin Zhongyue.

"Meng Chuan, I heard that my brat is after you..."

Lin Zhongyue's voice was pleading as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Mr. Lin, you're a local bigwig. Shang'an Real Estate has already contacted me. Isn't it a bit late for you to call me now?"

Meng Chuan interrupted Lin Zhongyue with a cold laugh.

In fact, Meng Chuan never suspected that what happened last night was related to Lin Zhongyue.

After all, given Lin Zhongyue's shrewdness and cunning, it's unlikely he would do something as foolish as hiring someone to commit violence under a contract system.

Meng Chuan simply wanted to annoy Lin Zhongyue.

"Meng Chuan, this really has nothing to do with me. You still hold shares in my Lin Group. Even if I wanted to take action against you, I wouldn't choose this time."

Lin Zhongyue, feeling somewhat guilty, hurriedly explained:

“Meng Chuan, you have to believe me. Besides, my son is at most an accomplice in this matter; he's from Shang'an Real Estate…”

Lin Zhongyue now only wants to exonerate Lin Xuan.

They're shifting all the blame onto Shang'an Real Estate.

Lin Zhongyue even had a hint of anticipation.

I hope Meng Chuan and Shang'an Real Estate will fight each other, preferably resulting in mutual destruction.

Before Lin Zhongyue could finish speaking, Meng Chuan interrupted him again:

Whether your son is the mastermind or an accomplice is none of my business. Save your questions for the courtroom.

"Also, I, Meng Chuan, have never been the type to take a beating without fighting back..."
