In fact, before Shen Jun could say anything, Zhao Kai had already taken action. Jiang Wei had originally wanted to borrow strength to make the Yang family and the Shen family go against each other, but he was stopped by Zhao Kai. He thought that he had to take down the Xu family first.

“The matter between Shen Jun and Yang Ting would definitely drag on longer. It’s not appropriate for us to make a move now,” Zhao Kai said expressionlessly.

Jiang Wei looked at the news page, but he did not agree with him. “The Yang family is quite powerful. It’s not surprising even if Shen Jun really married Yang Ting. Perhaps the Shen family’s strength would increased greatly, and it will be even harder for us to do anything towards them.”

“No, on Old Mr. Shen’s birthday, the two families almost fell out with each other, and the third son of the Yang family is also trapped overseas. The Yang family is fighting among themselves now,” Zhao Kai analyzed calmly. “If we deal with the Shen family now, won’t the Zhao family do it too? I heard from my friends in Hai City that Zhao Wu will be transferred back to the capital this year, and he will enter the core department.”

Jiang Wei’s breathing paused for a moment. He knew that the Zhao family was not easy to deal with. They were all experienced officials. If Zhao Wu came to the capital, it would be difficult for him to make a move.

The reason why the Shen family could be so carefree was not only because their business was doing well and they had many friends, but also because the Zhao family was powerful and no one could shake them.

Seeing that his expression was wavering, Zhao Kai continued, “Our strength is still not enough now. Why don’t we follow your original plan and swallow the Xu family first? If we have the Xu family and the power behind them, even without the Shen family’s shares, we can still stand.”

Jiang Wei nodded and said with a smile, “If we have two good in-laws, the Jiang family might be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Shen family. Look at Shen Mo. He didn’t make any achievements. He was born into a good family and has a good wife. You’re my only son. Your future wife has to be at least like Zhao Jiao. Whether she’s beautiful or not is secondary. The key is that she’s smart and knows how to judge the situation. She also has to have a good family background.”

Zhao Kai lowered his eyes slightly. Wen Nian’s figure flashed past his eyes. She was beautiful and smart. Other than her family background, she really met the requirements. Unfortunately, she had never seen him in her eyes.

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile. If he could really take down the Jiang family, some things might not be impossible.

Jiang Wei took actions quickly. Zhao Kai found his former comrade in the army and found many old items in a small village in Province A to send to the Xu family. Mr. Xu liked this young man even more.

The Xu family’s business was not small, and they were famous in the antique circle. Zhao Kai had gained the favor of the old man, so there were naturally many rumors.

Just as Jiang Chun was still feeling smug about scheming against Yang Ting and Wen Nian, Xu Li was almost angered to death.

Seeing that Jiang Chun had collected a lot of parcels which contained all kinds of new clothes, she felt that this daughter of hers was really useless. “You still have the mood to dress up? Zhao Kai is about to reach a higher level! The Xu family’s shop has already started to operate according to Zhao Kai’s wishes. Do you want your only maternal ancestor to side with someone else?”

“What can I do?” Jiang Chun said unhappily, “You’re still Grandpa’s only daughter. He still doesn’t trust you. To put it bluntly, the Xu family values boys over girls. Unfortunately, Grandpa doesn’t have a son in his life. He doesn’t even have a grandson. Isn’t what he has yours?”

It was not that she did not care about the Xu family, but Jiang Chun felt that no matter how much her grandfather did not like her daughter, he would not give up his assets to others, right? The old master of the Xu family was not like Jiang Wei, he had one daughter and no illegitimate children.

Xu Li said resentfully, “What do you think? It’s not like you don’t know your grandfather’s temper. I think Zhao Kai knows how to act. When the time comes, he might become the eldest grandson of the Xu family!”

At the mention of acting, Wen Nian appeared in Jiang Chun’s mind again. During this period of time, Wen Nian had been very quiet. Ding Sheng had helped her and Gu Cheng suppress the attention on them. Coupled with Director Sun scolding the netizens who were spreading rumors online, the attention of this scandal was quickly suppressed.

However, Yang Ting’s matter was not over yet. The netizens would still leave comments on Wen Nian’s social media account from time to time. Some people even wrote many articles on the love and hate entanglement between Yang Ting and Shen Jun, wanting to confirm Yang Ting and Shen Jun’s relationship.

As Jiang Chun was thinking, her phone suddenly rang. Jiang Ning’s voice was gloating. “Big news. It’s about the Yang family. Come quickly..”
