Chapter 805 805: A Risky Move
Just as Chen Xuan and Lin Wanxi were discussing, Chen Xuan suddenly received a call from Zhang Jun.
Inviting him to the Zhang Family for dinner.
Chen Xuan didn't immediately respond, simply replied with a single word, and hung up the phone.
"My uncle called you, inviting you to the Zhang Family for dinner?" Lin Wanxi shook her head with a smile, "What scheme is he up to now?"
"Isn't he still unwilling to give up, trying to promote Zhang Yan."
Yang Leshan snorted lightly, "Shameless! That Zhang Yan is no good woman, and the Zhang Family still shamelessly lets her flirt with Chen Xuan."
"Just the sight is infuriating!"
Lin Wanxi slightly shook her head, "This is just our private speculation, not necessarily true."
"Chen Xuan, I'll go with you tonight; if my uncle and the others are still unwilling to give up, let's take this opportunity to knock some sense into them."
"If they continue causing chaos, we might as well sever ties and never associate again."
Chen Xuan had no objections, "Alright then, we'll go together tonight."
"I guess I'll become a lone wolf again." Yang Leshan shrugged.
Lin Wanxi laughed, shaking her head, "Shanshan, you could come along with us."
"Why go to the Zhang Family? I have nothing to do with them; I'm not going." Yang Leshan pouted.
That evening, Chen Xuan and Lin Wanxi arrived at the Zhang Family.
Old Zhang Dehou, Zhang Jun, Zhang Xiangyang, and Zhang Yan were all at the door waiting to welcome them.
"Chen Xuan, Wanxi, you came together." Zhang Jun greeted them with a smile.
Lin Wanxi spoke with a half-smile, "Yes, uncle, you only invited Chen Xuan; I'm just tagging along to freeload."
Zhang Jun dryly laughed, "Wanxi, why do you talk like an outsider?"
"This place is just like your own home; you can come anytime. Your uncle didn't dare disturb you since you're busy, so he only called Chen Xuan."
Zhang Dehou quickly took over the conversation, chuckling, "We're certainly very happy to have Wanxi come in person."
"Let's go inside and eat together."
Chen Xuan did not reply, holding Lin Wanxi's hand as they walked into the Zhang Family.
Sitting down at the dining table.
Everyone from the Zhang Family looked at each other, all seeming hesitant to speak.
"You especially invited me for dinner; if there's any purpose, feel free to say it outright, no need to hide." Chen Xuan spoke softly, breaking the awkward silence.
Zhang Jun smiled apologetically, "Chen Xuan, this is still about last time; we feel very guilty and specially invited you to dinner to sincerely express apologies, hoping it won't affect our relationship, hahaha."
Chen Xuan slightly nodded, "If it's about that, then all is well, past matters need not be mentioned."
"As long as similar things don't happen again in the future, I won't dwell on it."
Zhang Jun and Old Zhang exchanged a glance, dryly laughing, "Besides, there's a small request."
"Recently, the Zhang Family's development has indeed been difficult, and we hope you can lend a hand to help the Zhang Family."
Chen Xuan furrowed his brows slightly, without expressing an opinion.
Lin Wanxi looked calm, "Uncle, what development problem is the Zhang Family facing? As far as I know, the Zhang Family's business has always been stable, without significant fluctuations."
Sigh!
Zhang Jun sighed, "Though development is stable, it's also stagnant!"
"If breakthroughs aren't sought, it's uncertain whether the Zhang Family might face economic decline and drop from third-class family status."
"Wanxi, I know you have ideas and good resources, please help the Zhang Family."
Zhang Dehou followed quickly with a plea, "Wanxi, now we're family, I'm your grandfather; no matter from any point, you have to help the Zhang Family."
Lin Wanxi secretly shook her head, realizing after all this time, the Zhang Family was still scheming.
They weren't content with the current situation, wanting benefits from her.
"I don't have any good development projects right now, but since grandpa and uncle asked, I'll keep an eye out." Lin Wanxi replied softly.
Not directly refusing, but also not giving a definite answer.
This response clearly failed to satisfy the Zhang Family brothers, but they dared not forcibly demand from Lin Wanxi.
Could only look towards Chen Xuan with a wry smile, "Chen Xuan, you're close with the Luo Family, could you discuss with them to find a project for Zhang Family?"
Chen Xuan chuckled, "Uncle Zhang, you have quite the appetite, aiming to elevate the Zhang Family to second-class family status, huh?"
Having seen through their intentions, Chen Xuan directly exposed it.
Zhang Jun and his father both gave dry smiles, tacitly acknowledging, waiting for Chen Xuan's response.
Hoping Chen Xuan would give them a chance for the Zhang Family to grow.
At this moment, Chen Xuan had already thought of a brilliant plan.
Since the Zhang Family had this ambition, then seize the opportunity to use the Zhang Family indirectly for his service, to probe the Xu Family sideways!
Taking a risky step, unafraid of unexpected outcomes!
