My Unexpected CEO Wife

Chapter 597: Despicable Underhanded Tactics

Faced with the Shen Family's full suppression, all the families in Qinghe City believed that Yang Xingxiu's small company wouldn't stand a chance and wouldn't last a day.

However, in reality, Yang Xingxiu remained as steady as an old dog, not panicking at all.

With ninety billion in funds in hand, it gave him ample confidence to compete with the Shen Family in terms of capital strength.

By the end of the day, the company's stock market remained quite stable.

No matter what means the Shen Family used, they were never able to cause Yang Xingxiu's company's stock market to crash.

This sparked a lot of heated discussions, with people wondering how Yang Xingxiu managed to withstand the Shen Family's assault.

That evening, the Shen Family's atmosphere was also oppressive, unable to accept this reality.

"Could it be that the Song Family is secretly funding Yang Xingxiu, using him to deplete our Shen Family, waging a proxy war?"

First son, Shen Ziang, furrowed his brow tightly and shared his insights.

Patriarch Shen was also uncertain about the situation, "If that's truly the case, we have to be particularly cautious."

"Once the Shen Family gets stuck in a financial war quagmire, it will ultimately drag us down and let the Song Family profit like fishermen!"

Shen Ziang nodded solemnly, "Dad, what should we do now?"

"We've already made a move against Yang Xingxiu, and if we back off now, it would be akin to admitting defeat for our Shen Family!"

"We'll be ridiculed by all the families, and we can't afford to lose face like that!"

At the second young master's engagement ceremony, Yang Leshan was forcefully taken away by Chen Xuan, already making the Shen Family lose face.

Following that, Shen Zihao was killed; anyone with a sharp eye could guess it must have something to do with Chen Xuan, though there isn't enough evidence.

The fact that the Shen Family couldn't take down Yang Xingxiu's company in a day was unexpected for everyone and indirectly made the Shen Family lose face.

No matter what, we cannot back down at this critical juncture, as it would seriously impact the reputation of our first-class family.

But continuing to deplete resources against Yang Xingxiu, if we can't destroy his company in a short time, the Shen Family is bound to suffer greatly, giving the Song Family the opportunity to profit.

It indeed feels like riding a tiger and finding it hard to get off.

Patriarch Shen was also secretly pondering what measures to take in response.

We need to guard against the Song Family while taking down Yang Xingxiu's company quickly. We can't drag this on indefinitely.

"Ziang, tomorrow find someone to sabotage Yang Xingxiu's goods warehouse."

"Let's set his backyard on fire, leaving him overwhelmed and allowing us to take him down in one fell swoop!"

Patriarch Shen came up with this strategy.

Shen Ziang didn't hesitate, "Okay, I'll find Yuan San to step in tomorrow, there should be no problem."

"No!"

Patriarch Shen quickly raised his hand to stop him, "Yuan San is too obvious a target, it could easily be leaked out, which wouldn't be good for our Shen Family's reputation."

"Find some unknown petty thugs to do this in private. In short, don't have any direct ties to our Shen Family."

"Understood! Dad, your considerations are thorough!" Shen Ziang understood the patriarch's intentions.

...

That night, Yang Xingxiu was in a particularly good mood, holding his own small company remarkably against the powerful onslaught from the Shen Family, creating an unbelievable miracle!

"Fortunately, with Chen Xuan's secret assistance, we have enough confidence to stand up against the Shen Family."

"If it were before, I couldn't even imagine such a thing happening, haha..."

Yang Xingxiu laughed excitedly, feeling like a rabbit that fought against a lion for a whole day and ended in a draw.

Yang Leshan was very pleased, "In the past, our family could only be easily crushed by the Shen Family. Now we can actually arm-wrestle with them!"

"This is all thanks to Chen Xuan, who brought real benefits to our family!"

He Lan didn't respond coldly as before; her attitude toward Chen Xuan had clearly changed.

However, she still wasn't overly optimistic, filled with concerns, "Don't celebrate too early, or you might end up laughing until you cry later."

"The Shen Family is ultimately a first-class family, with a much stronger overall strength than us! We can't let our guard down; who knows if other problems might arise."

Chen Xuan nodded with a smile, "Auntie is not wrong; we haven't truly become formidable enough to celebrate yet."

"But we also don't need to worry too much, that day will come eventually."

He Lan secretly pursed her lips, thinking to herself that the notion of overpowering the Shen Family was awfully arrogant.

A first-class family isn't that easy to deal with!

She felt Chen Xuan was becoming too complacent and didn't know his own limits.

The night passed without a word.

The next morning, news suddenly came that a bunch of thugs had broken into the warehouse and smashed the goods.

Yang Xingxiu was anxious and angry, cursing angrily, "These social scums! It must be the Shen Family doing this to sabotage us behind the scenes!"

He Lan was equally furious, "The Shen Family is really shameless, acting like a first-class family while resorting to such despicable tactics behind the scenes!"

Chen Xuan didn't mind, smiling lightly, "This shows that the Shen Family is already somewhat wary of us and doesn't dare to confront us head-on anymore."

"They can only resort to these shady tactics to cause us trouble."
