At the start, I tricked the school beauty, and ended up with twins?

"Uncle... I... I was wrong, I won't dare again!"

At this moment, Chen Yufei could no longer care about workplace norms, he only hoped that Chen Tian would spare him considering that he was his grandson.

He clung tightly to Chen Tian's right leg, tears and snot streaming down his face.

Chen Tian looked at him with undisguised disgust on his face.

"Get lost, I don't have a grandson like you!"

Chen Tian kicked into Chen Yufei's chest, and the latter rolled over a meter away like a ball, a shoe print on his suit jacket glaringly conspicuous.

Chen Yufei lay on the ground, staring blankly at the conference room's ceiling light.

He deeply understood what kind of person Chen Tian was.

Even if the person kneeling here was the current Chairman, his son Chen Qiao, Chen Tian would still kick without hesitation.

Criminals often know the depth of their own sins, yet they keep dancing on the sharp edge out of sheer luck. Now that everything was exposed, Chen Yufei felt hopeless and broke down on the spot.

He lay on the ground, wailing loudly like a swindled villager, twisting and turning like a dehydrated octopus.

Paying no heed to his disgraceful grandson, Chen Tian's gaze turned to the four managers who were already in shock.

After only one glance at Chen Tian, Wang Meng immediately knelt down on the floor with a thud.

The other three managers also knelt down, their faces pale.

Looking at Chen Yufei on the floor, covered in snot and dust, they remained silent as if chilled to the bone.

"Among you, there are two who have been veterans in the company for ten years, Wang Meng and Li Jia. Before I left Shengda, I really valued you and intended to introduce you to the group's investment department."

"But your performance has disappointed me greatly and also scared me. This is just the minor game investment department, yet you dared to engage in power trading. If you were really allowed into the main group department, I can't imagine the consequences!"

Chen Tian looked at Wang Meng and Li Jia with a tone both loving and resentful.

These two were personally promoted by him initially, yet their behavior had been utterly terrifying.

Such people, if they were to enter the group investment department, then the company's financial loss wouldn't be just forty or fifty million—it would be four hundred million, a billion!

Now, their greed had not only extinguished his inner anticipation but also ruined their great prospects.

"Chairman, I... I... I was wrong!"

"Chairman, I am sorry for failing your nurturing!"

Wang Meng and Li Jia's tears immediately streamed down, their knees sliding on the floor up to Chen Tian, expressing their infinite remorse towards this old chairman and senior who had once led them into Shengda.

Chen Tian looked up, not wishing to see their faces, as he didn't want to see how remorseful they were, for this was the karma they had created, and the consequences were theirs to bear.

Chen Tian ignored these after-the-fact mourners, stood up, and looked around at the attendees surrounding the office table.

"I am very sorry to have made you witness Shengda's disgrace and for the troubles this meeting has caused everyone. I ask for your understanding and not to blame," he said.

Chen Tian's expression was sorrowful and sincere as he deeply bowed to everyone.

"Chairman Chen, this... we can't accept this!"

"Yes, old gentleman, you are a revered senior, how could we possibly blame you?"

"Please stand up; if anyone is to be blamed, it should be those who have corrupted the market!"

The crowd was shocked and quickly spoke out to comfort Chen Tian.

They greatly admired Chen Tian for his decisive actions and the humility to admit mistakes.

True to being an old entrepreneur! Such vigor commands immense respect!

The ones offering comfort were the business owners who had not used underhanded tactics in the bidding process.

There, a silent group of people stood nearby.

Headed by Bi Jian, the six individuals who had secured contracts through bribery were ashen-faced, their complexions dark as if smeared with soot.

They never expected that Chen Tian, an old-timer long gone from power, would actually come out of nowhere and spoil the scenario they had meticulously set up.

Underneath the table, Bi Jian clenched his fists so hard they crackled; he was completely stupefied.

The investment of over ten million yuan that had just been confirmed had flown away! Had Chen Yufei's esteemed flag really fallen just like that?

Without this investment, he had nothing! Sword Barrier Network would be finished!

All that careful preparation, only for it to amount to something utterly fruitless?

Bi Jian's lips were quivering uncontrollably as he imagined Sword Barrier Network collapsing and himself being left with nothing, which made him shiver all over uncontrollably.

He looked toward Gu Yu, who was chatting with Lin Xinyue and wasn't paying him any attention at all.

At this moment, Bi Jian realized that, from start to finish, Gu Yu had never directly confronted him.

He was simply nothing in Gu Yu's eyes!

The adversary knew Old Mr. Chen and could win comprehensively without even making an effort!

"Gone... it's all gone... the company is gone... my money too."

Bi Jian leaned on the table, overturned the teacup, and tea flowed everywhere, soaking the various documents and contracts on the table.

Yet, he didn't know that he was not only losing his status and money but also that a greater punishment awaited him.

When Chen Tian heard the sound of the teacup overturning, his eyes fell on Bi Jian, who was utterly distraught on the table, without a hint of pity in his gaze.

Both the briber and the bribed are equally despicable; if there were no bribers, bribery itself would have no foothold!

"Heh, gentlemen, the funds of Shengda are not easy to take."

Chen Tian scoffed with utmost derision in his words.

Xu Hao, from Neidie Network, knew that Chen Tian was tearing his face with them, and immediately dropped the facade of respect.

He burst out swearing:

"Is that it? Is this all Shengda's got? I thought you were more capable. Since the investment is off, then give us our money back!"

Xu Hao's words evoked a response, and several other bribing bosses from his camp echoed, "Yeah, give us our money back!"

Seeing the ridiculous behavior of these men after they had shown their true colors didn't faze Chen Tian.

Having operated in the commercial sector for many years, he had experienced numerous ups and downs and was familiar with all kinds of workplace dynamics. The reactions of these people were no surprise to him.

But he did find it sad that they still dared to demand money here, oblivious to what they were about to face.

"Xu Fei, go open the door! Chen Qiao has arrived."

Chen Tian looked at the message on his phone, then said to Xu Fei standing beside him.

Xu Fei nodded her head and hurriedly opened the door.

The conference room door opened, and a man in his early forties wearing a deep blue business suit, bearing a strong resemblance to Chen Tian, walked in with a grim expression.

He was the current chairman of Shengda Group—Chen Tian's son, Chen Qiao.

Chen Qiao entered the conference room, holding the door open, and a dozen policemen filed in.

Then, following Xu Fei's gesture, they detained all the high-ranking officers including Chen Yufei, along with Bi Jian and the other bribing bosses.

The leading police officer waved his hand grandly, "Take them all away!"
