76: A rare beauty
Although the 3.1 million US dollars made him feel a pang in his heart, he eventually gritted his teeth and accepted it.
It was a case of one willing to hit and one willing to be hit.
“Alright, but I want to get what I want as soon as possible.”
The other party chuckled when he agreed, “No problem, we are professionals in this area.”
He hung up the phone immediately after speaking, which made Chen Jianteng feel a little uneasy; the other party seemed very confident.
However, when he thought about who the other party was, it was not surprising.
Speaking of which, this was his second time seeking their help. As a global organization, there seemed to be nothing they couldn't do.
At least, that's what he understood.
Finding out Wang Shaojun's identity should not be difficult for them.
Because their name was the Dark Web!
Just as his thoughts drifted, a file suddenly popped up on his computer.
The file also had the Dark Web's logo, a black spider-like pattern.
Seeing this, he understood that this was what he wanted.
He didn't expect the other party to be so fast; only a few minutes had passed.
As for the other party being able to send the file to his computer, he didn't find it surprising at all.
If they couldn't even do that, then they wouldn't deserve to be called the Dark Web.
He clicked on the file and looked at the information. The more he read, the darker his face became. By the time he reached the end, he hadn't found what he wanted, but he had learned some things he didn't know.
That was what happened when Wang Shaojun went abroad.
Of course, what he saw was edited; for example, the shootout was missing.
Looking at the account number at the bottom of the file, his face was livid. For this information, the other party actually demanded three million US dollars.
Indeed, saying they were robbing money was an insult to them.
How could one rob so quickly, making a 100% profit of three million US dollars in a few minutes—no, 3.1 million US dollars?
This made a thought spontaneously pop into his mind: what if he just didn't pay?
This thought was extinguished as soon as it emerged. It was better to pay obediently, otherwise, if the other party targeted him, he wouldn't even dare to sleep with his eyes closed.
This was not an exaggeration; the Dark Web was not just a place that sold intelligence; there were too many desperadoes there.
Assassins, mercenaries, terrorists, and so on—it was a mixed bag.
Three million US dollars was enough to make many people take risks.
Helpless, he could only grudgingly accept it, secretly vowing in his heart that unless absolutely necessary, he would never seek their help again; they were simply too ruthless.
And when they extort you, you can't even resist.
He transferred the money to the account on the file, then deleted the file.
Although the money was spent, it wasn't a complete loss.
Being able to spend billions to buy Heavenly Palace Hotel in Macau from the Qin Family was enough to explain too much, not to mention what the other party did abroad last week.
It could be said that he was squandering money. Over five hundred million US dollars—how much money was that?
About four billion RMB. If you add the money spent to buy Heavenly Palace Hotel, it's a cash flow of over ten billion.
This was equivalent to half of the Chen Group. The more he thought about it, the more alarmed he became. With such a terrifying cash flow, how terrifying must the capital behind the other party be?
Thinking of this, cold sweat suddenly involuntarily broke out on his back.
Now he understood why Li Gang had said those words earlier; that guy definitely knew something.
Right, the other party's son was so close to Wang Shaojun, their relationship must be extraordinary.
This was a bit difficult now. At first, he thought the Li and Yu families were the main players in this matter, but now it seemed he was wrong.
Wang Shaojun was the main player.
Four in the afternoon!
When Chen Jianteng arrived at Manor No. 3 with a nervous heart, he didn't know that he had come at the wrong time.
Because Wang Shaojun and the others were not at the manor right now, but had taken Wang Yuxin and others out to play.
But he didn't know that. He humbly approached the Bodyguard standing guard at the gate and said with a smile, “Hello, I am Chen Jianteng from the Chen Group. I've come to see Young Master Wang about an important matter. Please inform him.”
This was the first time he had spoken so humbly in Jiangcheng, and to a Bodyguard at that.
Unexpectedly, the Bodyguard, upon hearing this, indifferently uttered four words, “The Young Lord is not here.”
When Chen Jianteng heard this, the expression on his face froze. Not here?
This matter couldn't be delayed any longer; if it was, his son would truly be imprisoned.
He glanced into the manor and, left with no choice, could only decide to leave. After all, the other party's Bodyguard said he wasn't there, so he couldn't just barge in, could he?
If he really wasn't there, then there would be no room for maneuver.
After he left, the Bodyguard took out his phone and informed Butler Wei that Chen Jianteng had visited.
The next morning!
As soon as Chen Jianteng entered his office, his secretary followed close behind.
“What is it?”
Seeing this, Chen Jianteng raised his hand and rubbed his temples. He hadn't slept well all last night; the person by his bed kept whispering in his ear.
She wanted him to find a way to get Chen Gongdan out, but what could he do? He had already pulled all the strings he could and found all the people he could.
He had even been to Wang Shaojun's residence twice, but he was never there. He didn't know if the other party was intentionally avoiding him.
This made him shift his gaze back to Chen Beixuan.
After all, he was the key to saving Chen Gongdan. As long as the other party was willing to reconcile, everything would be resolved easily.
The secretary, hearing his heavy tone, couldn't help but shrink his neck and whispered, “Chairman Chen, a woman wants to see you.”
Chen Jianteng thought it was some important company matter, but it turned out to be just a woman.
A look of impatience appeared on his face, and he waved his hand, saying, “I'm not seeing her. Do I still need to teach you about such matters?”
The secretary, hearing this, was on the verge of tears and quickly interjected, “Chairman Chen, she says her online name is G-chan. If you don't see her, I'll have security escort her out.”
He then turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, the next second.
“Wait, what did you say? G-chan?”
“Yes, Chairman Chen!”
“Bring her in.”
The secretary nodded and turned to leave the office. As Chen Jianteng's secretary, he knew a little about Chen Gongdan's matter.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible to let G-chan into the company.
After the secretary left, Chen Jianteng sat in his boss's chair, thinking about what to do next.
A moment later, the secretary knocked on the door and entered again, followed by a brightly dressed woman.
With a curvaceous figure and a charming demeanor, she was a rare beauty.
This was G-chan?
It was indeed G!
After bringing the person in, the secretary discreetly left the office, not forgetting to close the door behind him.
G-chan nervously looked at the middle-aged man sitting in the boss's chair, while Chen Jianteng also scrutinized her.
“You are that Internet Celebrity named G-chan?”
“Chairman... Chen, hello, I am G-chan.”
Hearing this, Chen Jianteng got up and walked to the sofa. After sitting down, he said, “Sit down and talk. What do you want to see me about?”
