"Grandma, I think Brother Longxiang is quite good." Someone in the crowd spoke up.

Everyone turned to the voice and saw a young woman in her twenties.

Her name was Chen Siyu, the daughter of Chen Ziran's third uncle. Although her looks and figure were not as good as Chen Ziran's, she was not far behind.

But when it came to business skills, Chen Siyu was far behind.

Over the years, Chen Siyu had been competing with Chen Ziran, but she never expected Chen Ziran to have control of the Chen Family's medical equipment now.

If Chen Ziran continued to develop, she would probably have to act according to Chen Ziran's wishes in the future.

For this reason, how could she possibly support Chen Ziran?

Upon hearing Chen Siyu's words, someone immediately echoed, "Yes, Young Master Longxiang is a business genius. If it weren't for him last time, how could we have passed the Renmin Hospital crisis?"

"I agree. Even though some people are in charge of the medical equipment now, who knows what methods they used. Without Young Master Longxiang, how could she have gotten this far so smoothly?"

Many people were already skeptical about those medical equipment suppliers suddenly turning to Chen Ziran.

This kind of thing seemed unreasonable. Naturally, most people were even less willing to believe it was Chen Ziran's own merit.

The only possibility was that Chen Longxiang had done the work, but Chen Ziran took the credit.

Chen Longxiang was wearing a suit, looking refined and courteous.

With a smile, he nodded gently to the surrounding people, presenting a modest appearance: "We are all part of the Chen Family. The factory fire last time didn't knock us down; our Chen Family is like a phoenix rising from its ashes. The next step will be reaching new heights."

"Well said, Young Master Longxiang!"

"Exactly, Elder, look how magnanimous Young Master Longxiang is. He didn't take it to heart at all."

"Brother Longxiang, I support you."

The elder also smiled and nodded, looking at Chen Longxiang with affection: "Longxiang, you are a role model for the younger generation of our Chen Family. If I really entrusted you with the negotiations with the Star Group, are you confident you can handle it?"

"Grandma, if you really entrust me with it, I will certainly do my utmost." Chen Longxiang assured confidently.

"Tch, shameless." A small voice came from the crowd.

But the voice didn't seem to be trying to hide at all.

Everyone's faces darkened and looked toward the source of the voice, which was Ye Guichen next to Chen Ziran.

This time, Chen Ziran brought Ye Guichen to the Chen Family meeting just to tell the rest of the Chen Family that Ye Guichen was her man, so everyone in the Chen Family would be mentally prepared for the upcoming birthday banquet, and it wouldn't be too abrupt.

Unexpectedly, Ye Guichen had spoken out inappropriately.

"Grandma, that's not what he meant." Chen Ziran quickly explained, sensing the looks from the rest of the Chen Family.

The elder's face also looked displeased: "Hmph, Ziran, don't think you can be arrogant just because you have done something for our Chen Family. As long as I am alive, some people won't be allowed to talk nonsense here!"

Upon hearing this, everyone showed a look of schadenfreude.

Chen Siyu, in particular, was beaming with pride: "Oh, Ziran, you should better control that bumpkin. Does he even have the right to speak here?"

Chen Ziran's face flushed.

Ye Guichen, however, looked up with a smile, looking at Chen Siyu: "Oh, Miss, I said 'shameless,' but didn't name anyone. If you claim it, could it be you are the shameless one?"

"You're the shameless one!" Chen Siyu couldn't believe that Ye Guichen dared to insult her.

Chen Longxiang sneered and comforted: "Siyu, why bother with a low-class bumpkin?"

"Hmph, Chen Ziran, I really don't get you, bringing a bumpkin to a family meeting. Aren't you afraid of losing face?" Chen Siyu sneered.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ziran became unhappy: "Who I bring has nothing to do with you."

"Oh, so you want to protect your man now?"

"So what if I protect him? He is my man. If I don't protect him, should I protect you?" Chen Ziran retorted, sticking her neck out like a mother hen defending her chick.

Everyone was stunned. They initially thought Chen Ziran brought Ye Guichen just to let people ridicule him, but now she actually stood up to defend him. She looked ready to fight anyone who dared to bully him.

Ye Guichen, however, acted like a freeloading gigolo, staying silent.

"Bumpkin, don't think you can be arrogant just because someone supports you. Remember, whether you can enter our Chen Family still depends on Grandma." Chen Siyu said, her face red with anger and annoyance.

Ye Guichen chuckled: "Oh, then you needn't worry, Miss Shameless."

"You..." Chen Siyu stomped her feet in anger and whined to the elder: "Grandma, look at this bumpkin! If he really becomes part of our Chen Family, wouldn't we become a laughingstock?"

The elder didn't expect Ye Guichen to be so arrogant and her face showed growing displeasure: "Alright, I will decide this matter. First, secure the cooperation with the Star Group."

"Mom, don't worry. With Longxiang handling it, isn't it a piece of cake?" Chen Longxiang's mother, Li Yujie, said proudly.

If Chen Longxiang succeeded in securing the deal, she would rise with him. Then dealing with Chen Ziran and her family would be just a matter of words.

Chen Ziran bit her lip. Although she was a bit unwilling, she had no choice.

Since the Star Group had already decided to cooperate with the Chen Family, whoever the elder assigned the task to would naturally take the credit.

Such a windfall, of course, Chen Ziran would be tempted.

But seeing the elder and others' attitude, Chen Ziran could only sigh heavily.

At that moment, Ye Guichen held Chen Ziran's hand: "Don't worry, apart from you, no one can negotiate the cooperation with the Star Group."

"Huh?" Chen Ziran looked at Ye Guichen in surprise.

This wasn't the first time Ye Guichen had made an incredible statement, yet each time it had come true.

But this time, it seemed too absurd.

The Star Group was like stars in the sky, how could it be easily influenced by others?

"Oh." Chen Ziran didn't believe it at all but forced a smile: "Well, thank you for the comfort."

Her expression, however, clearly showed disbelief.

That afternoon, Chen Longxiang, with expensive gifts in hand, personally went to the Star Group's office in Yun City.

However, before he even entered the door, he was shown out.

"What? What does the Star Group mean?" Chen Longxiang came back, disheartened. The elder angrily stood up and immediately called Sun Boyuan: "Chairman Sun, didn't you say the Star Group was interested in cooperating with our Chen Family? Why did they chase Longxiang out?"

On the other end of the call, Sun Boyuan lifted his head with a bitter smile, looking at the flamboyantly dressed woman in front of him. Seeing the woman remain silent, he had to say: "Elder, Miss Mei Gui of the Star Group said that she wants Chen Ziran to come and talk in person."

"What?" The elder almost dropped her phone: "Is it that girl again?"

After a while, the elder tentatively asked: "Chairman Sun, what's going on? Why must Ziran go?"

"That, I'm not sure either." Sun Boyuan hung up the phone and looked at the woman in front of him with a fawning smile, probing: "Miss Mei Gui, Chen Ziran is just an ordinary junior of the Chen Family. It's really their great fortune to have your favor."

Miss Mei Gui was, in fact, none other than the Blood Rose.
