Chapter 1177 - The Power to Control the Wen Corporation (2/2)

He actually wanted to ask her how she had gotten that information. However, she obviously didn’t plan to tell him and hence, he decided not to probe either. After all, he cared about his granddaughter a lot and did not want to cause a strain on their relationship because of the matter. However, he understood that perhaps… she was the key person who could help the Wen Family overcome this major ordeal.

Wen Xinya nodded dejectedly and said, “Yes, it’s been verified.” After a moment of hesitation, she said slowly, “The person who tipped me off is the boss of Jiayuan Club, who is also Grampy’s student.”

Since Old Mr. Wen decided to trust her, she was not willing to let him down either. Having interacted with him for more than three years, she had developed feelings for him even though their relationship was not that close. Anyway, there was no harm letting him know that Si Yiyan was the boss of the Jiayuan Club.

Old Mr. Wen squinted abruptly.

Perhaps, most people simply thought of Jiayuan Club as a mysterious but powerful club. However, Old Mr. Wen knew better than anyone else that the boss of Jiayuan Club was known as the King of Triads in Capital city, who was in control of all the secret societies and operations. There was no doubt that he was powerful.

Wen Xinya’s decision to reveal that to him made him trust her even more.

After a moment of silence, Old Mr. Wen asked, “What do you think about this?”

There was no way for the Wen Corporation to go against the Korean-Chinese Alliance and he did not have a better solution now either. He was taking a gamble on… Wen Xinya’s relationship with the boss of the Jiayuan Club.

Having understood Old Mr. Wen’s intentions, Wen Xinya said softly, “It’s already too late now to stop the entertainment city project from proceeding. If we were to employ harsher tactics, chaos will break out within the Wen Corporation and that will result in a major loss. We’ll also end up giving those people the chance to take advantage.”

If they were to alarm the alliance and expose their identity, the alliance would definitely do everything they could to attack the Wen Family and get rid of the Wen Corporation. The Wen Family would then be ruined.

Old Mr. Wen immediately knew what she meant. “You mean, we shouldn’t alarm them?”

Although he was rather disappointed, he knew that it was the best solution at hand, based on his rich experience in being a businessman.

Wen Xinya nodded and said, “That’s exactly what I meant. The entertainment city project will require at least two to three years to be completed and the Korean-Chinese Alliance can only begin using the Wen Corporation to carry out illegal activities after the entertainment city project has been completed. With the Zhang Corporation around, it’d be impossible for us to control and manage the entertainment city project. However, we can control the effect that it has on the Wen Corporation and minimize the damages so as to keep our foundation.”

It was the best solution they could employ now. Rather than alarm the mastermind and ruin the Wen Corporation, they might as well do their best to keep the foundation strong. They would be able to make a comeback in the future.

Most importantly, she had already discussed the matter with Si Yiyan and they agreed that they would definitely find a chance to expose their identity once they found some clues.

However, she did not plan to tell Old Mr. Wen of her plan.

Even if Old Mr. Wen agreed, he would still feel upset about her using his lifelong career for a gamble. He might even start to suspect her.

Old Mr. Wen nodded and remained silent for a long time, trying to digest the shocking piece of news that he had just heard.
