Chapter 60 - Commands

Ye Cheng's expression darkened as soon as he got into his car. He brought his phone out and dialed a string of numbers. When the call connected, he said, "Investigate the whereabouts of Song Ning, the woman I asked you to look up yesterday. If she goes to a club, look for an opportunity to ruin her or something. After a while, drive her out of M City. Keep an eye out on Mu Chen; don't let him find out about this. Be as discreet as possible!"

After the call disconnected, he tossed his phone on the seat before he removed his jacket. Then, he asked his driver, "Did you see Mr. Ning's car?"

The driver nodded. "Yes, he has already left."

"Find out who he was meeting and see if there were any young women around him recently."

"Understood," the driver replied.

Ye Cheng leaned back in the seat and closed his eyes. He and Mu Chen had known each other since they were children. They attended the same kindergarten and the same university. Both of them were burdened with the responsibility of inheriting their families' businesses so they had undergone all kinds of rigorous training since they were young.

During their four years in university, he and Mu Chen hid their wealthy backgrounds and studied with ordinary identities. They even stayed in the dormitories with their classmates. Perhaps, it was due to their similarities, they became quite close. Mu Chen had always been aloof and taciturn so he would speak up for Mu Chen. Therefore, Mu Chen had always respected Ye Cheng. When both of them took over their respective families' businesses, the two families had an unprecedented good relationship.

For all these reasons, Ye Cheng had hoped Ye Xin would be able to marry Mu Chen. Not only would it stabilize the relationship between their families, but he knew Mu Chen was a good man and would not mistreat his sister.

With Ye Xin's bad temper, she would definitely have conflicts with her parents-in-law. However, since Mu Chen's mother had passed away, there was no need for her to worry about conflicts with her in-laws. Moreover, he was unwilling to meet his biological father and stepmother because of his mother.

Therefore, in Ye Cheng's opinion, in the entire M City, only Mu Chen was a match for Ye Xin.

Let alone Ye Xin, even Ye Cheng was upset when he discovered a random woman had appeared out of nowhere and married Ye Cheng.

Anyone or anything that stood in his path had to be removed. It was their instinct to be ruthless, both him and Mu Chen. It was as simple as that.

In comparison, Ye Cheng was more interested in Ning Zhe.

The Ning family was a low-profile wealthy family. Ning Zhe had begun keeping a low profile after his divorce ten years ago. The Ning family had very few descendants. Ning Zhe was in his fifties, but his son was still in junior high school. He had a daughter as well, but she had disappeared after his divorce. It was likely that his daughter had been taken away from him.

Everyone knew about Ning Zhe's divorce back then. It was normal for men like him to have affairs or illegitimate children. Even Ye Cheng's father had a mistress. Fortunately, Ye Cheng's mother was unaware of it so his mother did not kick up a huge fuss.

Ye Cheng knew he was fortunate since his father did not have any illegitimate children who would fight him for the inheritance. Naturally, he would not allow his father to have illegitimate children as well. As a man, he understood his father, but it did not mean he would allow his father to bring him trouble.

Nevertheless, Ye Cheng knew that even if his mother was aware of his father's affairs, she would not divorce his father for personal reasons.

However, Ning Zhe's wife at that time was different. When she found out about his extramarital affairs and illegitimate children, she chose to divorce him. Moreover, she did not want alimony from the Ning family. All she wanted was to regain her business from the Ning family regardless of the loss. Following that, she went to court to fight Ning Zhe for custody of their daughter.

Ning Zhe's wife was the talk of the town back then. The moment she lost her love for her husband, she did not hesitate to end the marriage. She did not depend on him nor did she compromise.

After the divorce, Ning Zhe's reputation took a hit. His wife gave everything up and only asked for the custody of their daughter. This made the public see him negatively; they saw him as a jerk who abandoned his wife and child for his mistress.

Ever since then, Ning Zhe's ex-wife and his daughter disappeared from the public eye.

Similarly, Ning Zhe's new wife hardly appeared in the public as well due to the public's criticism toward her.

Ning Zhe suffered huge losses and kept a low profile for years.

In Ye Cheng's opinion, Ning Zhe's ex-wife was not on the losing end at all. In fact, he considered her the winner of the entire mess.

In the past few years, Ye Cheng had begun to pay attention to the traditional handicraft industry. It was a relatively unpopular niche, but there was a large profit margin to be made. He wanted to find a new approach to enter the industry, but he found that the Ning family was the market leader in that sector. For example, the embroidery market was almost entirely monopolized by the Ning family.

It was for this reason that Ye Cheng took an interest in Ning Zhe and his past.

In this age of advanced information technology, it was not easy for the Ning family to maintain such a low profile. In any case, Ye Cheng thought this was a good opportunity for him.

In fact, it did not matter to Ye Cheng when Mu Chen married Ye Xin. He was not worried that Mu Chen would not marry his sister. Like him, he knew Mu Chen did not have a choice in this matter. Since Mu Chen seemed to be crazy in love now, it was the perfect moment for Ye Cheng to take action.

Ye Cheng thought perhaps it was due to Mu Chen's mother being an author that contributed to Mu Chen being an idealist. After all, Mu Chen thought people like them would be able to have romantic relationships and loving marriages.

On the other hand, Ye Cheng only thought that it was f*cking nonsense!
