The young receptionist was very surprised after hearing the message, but she still truthfully relayed it to Fu Zhou.

After listening, Fu Zhou felt his heart shatter.

How could they refuse to meet?

All along, Longyu Group's attitude had been quite ambiguous, always in negotiations.

How come as soon as Yang Chen returned, he was so resolute?

Could it be Yang Chen's intention?

Fu Zhou was very worried and couldn't help but think about these things.

Suddenly, he was in a bad state.

His face turned pale, full of sorrow.

"How could this happen? How could this happen?" Fu Zhou was a bit unsteady on his feet.

Manager Liu quickly supported Fu Zhou and said, "Chairman Fu, there's no need for this. If Longyu Group doesn't want to cooperate with us, there are plenty of companies outside that are eager to partner with us! Our collaboration is almost like giving money away, so why bother? Working with other companies, we can make a substantial profit. If they don't appreciate the opportunity, we can't be blamed!"

"You, shut up!" Fu Zhou scolded, still filled with sorrow, feeling like his world was collapsing.

For decades, he and Ruan Ling had depended on each other for survival. Their only hope was Yang Chen, hoping for the day when they could reunite with him.

However, now that they were about to reunite, he didn't want to acknowledge them.

"Does he hate us that much?" Fu Zhou thought, feeling a deep sense of regret.

At this moment, Fu Zhou felt like he wanted to die.

In an instant, the hope that kept him alive collapsed.

Just as he was about to leave in despair, Wang Ming walked over with a smile, not forgetting to teasingly greet the young receptionist before calling out to Fu Zhou, "President Fu, our President Yang wants to see you."

Fu Zhou was stunned, almost not believing his ears. He quickly collected himself and asked, "What did you say?"

"Our President Yang wants to see you," Wang Ming leaned against the reception desk and said.

Fu Zhou's face lit up with joy.

He hurriedly bowed to Wang Ming, "Thank you! Thank you so much!"

Wang Ming was startled, quickly bending down, almost kneeling.

This was the president of Baisheng Real Estate himself, and his respectful demeanor left Wang Ming grateful and humbled.

Manager Liu didn't expect Yang Chen would agree to meet Fu Zhou, and silently cursed him for being a hypocrite. Earlier he had spoken so firmly, but in the end, wasn't it all about making money?

Immediately, Manager Liu hurried to follow Fu Zhou.

In the meeting room.

Yang Chen's expression was slightly stern.

The director seemed a bit agitated, clenching and unclenching his hands, showing his internal turmoil.

Thud thud!

The sound of knocking on the glass door was heavy.

"Come in!" Yang Chen said indifferently.

Fu Zhou pushed the door open and entered. Upon seeing Yang Chen, tears welled up in his eyes, but he forced a smile and walked in.

"Get out!" Yang Chen ordered coldly.

Fu Zhou was startled, staring in disbelief at Yang Chen, thinking he was speaking to him.

"I said, get out!" Yang Chen said with a stern face.

Manager Liu, who had a foot inside, heard Yang Chen's words, his expression changed a few times, and he glared at Yang Chen.

"If you don't leave, I'll have security take you out. Our company's security might not be gentle, and we won't be responsible for any injuries!" Yang Chen said coldly.

Manager Liu shouted in anger, "Yang Chen, don't push me too far!"

It was then that Fu Zhou understood that this was a conflict between Yang Chen and Manager Liu.

He tried to mediate, "How about this? I believe there must be some misunderstanding between you two, and we're all here, so why not clear up the misunderstanding?"

"Impossible!" Yang Chen replied coldly, "I can talk to you, but absolutely not with him. In the future, don't even think about stepping into Longyu Group!"

"You!" Manager Liu pointed angrily at Yang Chen, "I see you don't want this project anymore!"

"Wang Ming!" Yang Chen shouted.

"Coming!" Wang Ming hurried in, ready for trouble.

Yang Chen said coldly, "Grab him and throw him out!"

"Okay!" Since Yang Chen had given the order, Wang Ming naturally didn't hold back. He grabbed Manager Liu and was about to walk him out.

Fu Zhou quickly stopped him, "Can you tell me what's going on here?"

"I'll explain," Zhou Huiqing walked over and said blandly.

She had heard the commotion and realized the importance of the matter.

Zhou Huiqing said to Fu Zhou, "This man works for your company, right? He said this project was a handout for Longyu Group. As long as he's here, there would never be cooperation between us, and he wouldn't allow us to earn a dime. He insulted us by saying we're just a small company living off others' leftovers. For insulting Longyu Group and looking down on us, we naturally can't put up with it. However, we are not interested in projects worth hundreds of billions or even thousands of billions, nor do we see any reason to cling to this connection!"

After listening, Fu Zhou understood everything.

He pointed at Manager Liu, "You said you came to report on work, but did you arrange for the driver to deliberately take a congested route to upset our client and ruin this deal?"

Manager Liu quickly defended, "No! It wasn't! I was thinking of the company. This contract is like giving money away! We are a company, after all, we need profit. Young people like him can't handle such a big project alone; he needs our help!"

Fu Zhou, hearing this, made up his mind and said coldly, "Take him away for me!"

"Sure thing!" Wang Ming glanced at Yang Chen, emphasizing, "I'll throw him out!"

Since Yang Chen had said to throw him out, Wang Ming would do just that.

Of course, it wouldn't be from such a high floor, but the first floor was doable.

...

With Wang Ming and Manager Liu gone, the room suddenly became much quieter.

Yang Chen waved his hand to signal for Zhou Huiqing to leave as well.

Zhou Huiqing hesitated for a moment, leaving a message, "If there's any problem or need, just call me."

Once Zhou Huiqing left, Fu Zhou cried out to the director, "Uncle Qin!"

He then prepared to kneel before the director, saying, "Uncle Qin! Thank you for saving my life, thank you for raising me!"

Hearing this, the director was already very sure, this was indeed Yang Yanyu! Yang Chen's father!

The director quickly held Fu Zhou, preventing him from kneeling, saying, "Yang Yanyu! You're Yanyu, right?"

"Yes! It's me! It's really me!" Fu Zhou nodded repeatedly, tears streaming down.

If it hadn't been for the director saving them and taking in Yang Chen, they would have been dead long ago. Fu Zhou was very grateful to the director for this.

Watching the two recognize each other, Yang Chen understood inside that this man was indeed his father.

However, his heart remained calm, frighteningly so, as if something was amiss.

Fu Zhou wiped his tears and said, "To survive, Wen Jie and I changed our names. I am Fu Zhou, and she is Ruan Ling. I've always thought that one day, I would get revenge! So, my name Fu Zhou is a homophone for revenge!"

The director felt a flood of emotions.

Back then, Yang Yanyu wasn't someone who held grudges; he was more of a bookish fool. Who would've thought he'd change so much?
