Chapter 2291 The Hongmen Banquet Begins
Chapter 2291
On the way to the banquet.
Jiang Wan suddenly asked Han Ying, "What would happen if Li Xingchen was killed?"
Han Ying was startled and turned to look at her in shock.
It became clear very quickly.
Even the emperor in the palace would have people who wanted to kill him, not to mention the person in charge of the Seven Star Group.
For the people of the Seven Star Group, Li Xingchen is their local emperor.
It is the supreme existence in their hearts.
But to outsiders, Li Xingchen is nothing.
Han Ying suppressed his shock and said silently, "Killing him is easy, but the problem is that the Seven Star Group cannot be torn apart like this. The Seven Star Group still has many core technologies that can be developed."
"After what happened last night, 21 of the 28 heirs of the Seven Star Group died."
"There are 7 people left, including Li Chengze and Li Xiuying."
"These two people cannot inherit the Seven Star Group, so there are only five heirs left."
"Yesterday I heard Li Xingchen and Li Chengze discussing that they wanted to send these five people to China to carry out the mission."
Jiang Wan frowned and didn't say much.
Han Ying had just explained to them that the US military base had assigned tasks to their four major families.
The missions of these four major families are all related to several neighboring countries, and China has the most missions.
The base asked them to steal China's confidential information, core data, or high-tech talents. In short, they would take advantage of anything that would benefit China's development.
But instead of stopping it themselves, they instigated several major families in country H to send people to do it.
Their purpose is almost self-evident.
Therefore, according to Han Ying, it would be useless even if the Seven Star Family was destroyed.
Because even if these four families are all destroyed, four more will be cultivated, and the core source is the US military base.
This has already escalated to a confrontation between countries and the international situation, which is something Jiang Wan can't understand and is too lazy to pay attention to.
Then we have to think about how to survive in the gap between them and find ways to make our factory gain a foothold.
For a moment, Jiang Wan even considered whether to support a puppet to sit in the position of the leader of the Seven Star Family.
But the thought flashed through my mind.
The Seven Stars Family is the leader of the four major families, and is also the target of the other three families. Even if she supports a puppet, it is useless.
Even if the Seven Star Family is torn apart and divided up, someone else will still take her place, and then she will still lose more than she gains.
It makes me sad just thinking about it.
Seeing the car arrive outside the old house, Jiang Wan still couldn't figure out what was going on.
I simply stopped thinking about it.
I concentrated on observing the surrounding environment, wondering where would be the best way to run when I left later.
The car drove in quickly, and Han Ying's expression became tense. She said:
"After we go in, except for Rose, both of you pretend not to hear anything. Make yourselves completely deaf and ignore whatever happens."
Jiang Wan nodded to show that she understood, and Qiao Liancheng and Haijing also nodded.
They have been playing the role of the deaf-mute very well all along. If Han Ying hadn't said she wanted to marry Hai Jing, it would have really scared him.
He won't reveal any flaws.
The car stopped.
Li Chengze came over first.
After opening the car door, he looked at Jiang Wan and said a little aggrievedly, "I came to pick you up specially, why did you get into someone else's car?"
Jiang Wan smiled and said, "I had a good chat with Han Ying, so I got into her car."
Li Xiuying ran over at this time, stood beside Qiao Liancheng with a smile, and said to Qiao Liancheng:
"Brother Liancheng, wait a moment, follow me and don't run around."
"Don't worry, I'm here and I won't let anyone hurt you."
Qiao Liancheng said nothing and ignored her.
Just looking at the roses.
Li Xiuying slapped her forehead and said, "Look at me, I forgot that Brother Lian Cheng can neither listen nor speak."
Muttering to herself, she began to use sign language to tell Qiao Liancheng what she had just said.
After seeing her sign language, Qiao Liancheng turned to look at Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan nodded at him, and Qiao Liancheng then made a thank you gesture to Li Xiuying.
Seeing this, Li Xiuying smiled so hard that her eyes curved and her little face flushed red. She kept looking at Qiao Liancheng with a silly smile.
She had both her hands behind her back, and she kept twisting her fingers, looking like a shy little girl, which made anyone who saw her fall in love with her and feel soft-hearted.
But, Qiao Liancheng is an exception.
After taking a look, he turned back and looked at Jiang Wan quietly.
His face still had a serious expression.
At this time, Li Xingchen actually took the initiative to come out to greet him.
Many people in the Li family manor were waiting outside, standing in two large rows, and followed Li Xingchen out to greet him.
Li Xingchen took the lead and walked towards Jiang Wan. He reached out and took her hand, saying warmly, "Welcome, welcome, welcome Ms. Rose."
Rose smiled faintly and shook hands gracefully.
The two large rows of people behind Li Xingchen all bowed and shouted in unison, "Welcome Ms. Rose."
Even Jiang Wan, who had seen a lot of things, was shocked by this scene.
Only the person involved can understand this sense of shock.
This is something that cannot be experienced by reading text or watching TV.
Li Xingchen took the initiative to welcome everyone into the living room, where several long tables were originally placed.
Now all the long tables have been removed, leaving only one main table.
In addition to Li Xingchen and others, there were also the remaining five heirs of the Seven Star Family at the table.
However, they were just a foil, sitting quietly.
Jiang Wan glanced around and found that there were still two heirs of the same generation as Li Chengze.
In addition to Li Chengze, there was also a middle-aged man with a handsome face. He wore a pair of glasses and looked very gentle.
Han Ying saw Jiang Wan looking over and hurried over, whispering in her ear, "This is the Fourth Young Master."
“He’s a professor at the school.”
Han Ying pointed out his position to tell her that the possibility of this person inheriting the Seven Star Family was very low.
Usually, the head of a Seven Star Family must work in the company and be familiar with everything going on in the company.
But some people are not good at business and do not want to be involved in the family business, so they will choose other industries.
This professor is like that.
Therefore, when he chose the profession of professor, he was destined to have no chance of becoming the leader of the Seven Star Group.
Apart from him, the remaining four are all young masters of their grandchildren.
It seems that, if nothing unexpected happens, the future leader of the Seven Star Family will be born from these four people.
Jiang Wan glanced at them a few times and didn't take it seriously.
After everyone took their seats.
Li Xingchen ordered people to serve the dishes.
There was some greeting first, and then we started eating.
After all, this is a dinner party, so we have to eat first and talk later. Han Ying said, "The Li family has very strict rules. We don't talk while eating. We talk after the meal."
The meal ended quickly, and Jiang Wan didn't feel anything about the food they prepared.
It was all western food, served in a continuous stream. Each person only had a small bite, and before they could taste the flavor, they were all gone.
She didn't like it very much. In her opinion, it would be more comfortable to go out and eat a plate of fried noodles.
After dinner, everyone sat in the study, and Li Xingchen said something.
Jiang Wan and the others' faces turned pale instantly.
