Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 65 Influential Figures of Beijing 2_1

With Shen Cheng as such a significant backer, not utilizing him would be a waste. In Beijing, or even nationwide, who wouldn’t give the Shen Family some face?

Shangguan You, whose eyes had been closed, suddenly opened them. A cold light flashed within. She had anticipated that Shen Jia and her family of three would seek refuge with Shen Cheng, but she had not expected to actually encounter them here.

"What did you say? Watch your mouth! Who do you think my Young Mistress is? You were the ones blind to her worth! You want to bully others? You should choose your targets more carefully. Is my Young Mistress someone you can afford to bully? Did you even bother to find out what kind of family the Shangguan Family is in Beijing? For a small, insignificant household like yours to challenge my Young Mistress is simply courting death! That Shen Family, that Shen Cheng—what are they even? Daring to parade themselves around? Country bumpkins, that’s all they are! Forever unable to grace the grand stage. So what if they have some money? Money is useless if you don’t have the life to spend it!" Zhang Mama rose from her seat, an imposing aura radiating from her. After all, she had been with the Shangguan Family for sixteen years—ever since the Young Mistress was born. She had absorbed nine-tenths of the Shangguan Family’s bearing.

"You damn old hag! How dare you insult the Shen Family and our cousin Shen Cheng? Are you tired of living? Don’t you know that a mere stomp of the Shen Family’s foot can make all of Beijing tremble?"

Shen Congming’s face turned livid with rage. Shen Jia erupted, pointing at Zhang Mama and cursing loudly.

"HAHAHA." ƒrēenovelkiss.com

Following Shen Jia’s words, many on the plane familiar with Beijing’s circles burst into laughter, including a good number of Shen Cheng’s adversaries. Hearing such a ridiculous boast naturally elicited scornful laughter.

"HAHAHA. A year ago, the Shen Family might have been able to cause a stir in Beijing. But ever since their heir and the old master passed away, their influence has gradually declined, although they still hold significant shares in national commerce. Moreover, many directors within the Shen Family are dissatisfied with Shen Cheng’s leadership. If not for the large block of shares he holds, Shen Cheng would have been ousted long ago."

"That’s right, little sister. If you don’t understand, it’s best not to speak recklessly, or you’ll just make a fool of yourself. That would be quite embarrassing."

"Speaking of people in Beijing who can truly shake things up with a stomp, the first that comes to mind is Genesis International. Their business spans the globe, involved in every conceivable industry, with countless companies and subsidiaries under its umbrella. If Genesis International were to collapse one day, I believe not just the entire country, but the entire international scene would plunge into a financial storm. Half the population could become unemployed, and half the people in the country might starve, leading to national upheaval."

Shangguan You gestured for Zhang Mama to sit down. There’s no need to get angry with the likes of Shen Jia. Besides, these three are pawns she has greater use for later; that’s why she’s tolerated them so far. Hearing the businessmen on the plane discuss these matters, Shangguan You listened with keen attention. Ye Sanshao kept a charming smirk on his face. His phoenix-like eyes swept over Shen Jia’s family of three, then rested on Shangguan You, who appeared completely unperturbed. The smile at the corners of his lips deepened.

"The president of Genesis International, however, is as elusive as a divine dragon, showing its head but never its tail—utterly mysterious. However, it’s widely circulated in their circles that the president’s surname is Ye."

"Besides Genesis International, who else in Beijing can cause such a stir with a mere stomp of their foot?" Shangguan You’s gaze briefly swept over Ye Sanshao. This flamboyant man definitely knows the president of Genesis International.

"The second person is Lin Wenbo. Speaking of Elder Lin, one cannot help but commend him. For decades, he has not only held the top position in the mafia, a true Godfather figure. More importantly, he maintains an unfathomably complex relationship with the military and political echelons—neither quite friend nor foe."

"The third is Old Chief Shangguan Zhi, a name that resonates throughout Beijing. Although he is now retired, his influence in the military remains unparalleled. His eldest son is the Secretary of the Beijing Municipal Party Committee, holding the power of life and death in Beijing. His younger son is a commander of a military region. Who would dare provoke such a prominent Red family? If the Shen Family ever dared to confront the Shangguan Family, they would be courting their own destruction."

"So, young lady, until you clearly understand the situation in Beijing, it’s best to keep quiet. Otherwise, you might bring disaster upon yourself."

"Apart from these elder luminaries, the most talked-about young scion in Beijing currently is the Little Princess of the Shangguan Family. It’s said, however, that this princess is incredibly mysterious and fiercely protected by the Shangguan Family. Then there’s the Crown Prince of the Yu Family, the young master of the Zhang Family, and the young lady of the Li Family. Of course, these are mostly rumors, as they are all still students. Nevertheless, their future prospects are limitless."

Hearing this casual chatter among the passengers, Shen Congshan inexplicably broke out in a cold sweat. This Shangguan You also bore the Shangguan surname; could she be connected to the Shangguan Family? Shen Jia was in a similar state. She had wanted to humiliate Shangguan You, but now she was the one utterly embarrassed.

"Everyone... Ma’am," Duan Mei nodded towards Zhang Mama, "and this young lady," she glanced at Shangguan You. "I am so sorry. My daughter is ignorant. Please, everyone, be magnanimous and don’t hold it against a child." Duan Mei wiped the sweat from her forehead as she stood to apologize to everyone on the plane.

"Mommy!" Shen Jia cried out reluctantly, her lips pressed tightly together. How could Mommy apologize to that bitch Shangguan You?

Duan Mei shot Shen Jia a severe look, and reluctantly, Shen Jia lowered her head.

Shangguan You chuckled coldly, a chilling light glinting in her eyes as she shot Shen Jia an icy glance. Meeting Shangguan You’s frigid gaze, Shen Jia felt a shiver run down her spine.

Shangguan You indifferently withdrew her gaze. Let them be smug for a while longer. Soon, she would deliver a grand gift to Shen Cheng and Shen Qian. She would make it so they could find no rest by day and no sleep by night. She would personally watch them transform, step by step, from inseparable lovers into bitter enemies.

The three words ’Shen Wanyou’ would become a lifelong nightmare they could never escape.

Exiting the airport, faced with the familiar surroundings, Shangguan You’s steps suddenly grew heavy, her expression somewhat dazed. Since her rebirth, this was the first time she had set foot on this soil, returning with a completely new identity.

"HMPH!" Shen Jia snorted heavily and strutted past her. Shen Congming, head held high, walked proudly beside Shen Jia. Duan Mei offered Shangguan You an apologetic smile before quickly hurrying after them.
