Chapter 33: Seventh Day After the Severance of Relations, Reward of Shares in the Top Group

"Okay."

Chen Fan nodded.

Afterward, Chen Fan and Jiang Hao went to Jiang Hao's office.

"Mr. Chen, this should be your office from now on..." Jiang Hao said, a little disappointed. After all, Chen Fan had become the company's largest shareholder.

"No, this office still belongs to you, Mr. Jiang," Chen Fan said meaningfully.

Although he was now the largest shareholder of Tengfei Group, Chen Fan didn't want to replace Jiang Hao and manage the entire company.

First of all, even though Jiang Hao had his own agenda, he had helped Chen Fan. Without his support, it wouldn't have been so easy to kick out Feng Yanli.

Secondly, managing a company required a lot of time and energy, and Chen Fan didn't want to invest all his effort into a small company like Tengfei Group.

Tengfei Group's market value was only around 10 billion. If Chen Fan wanted to surpass the Chen family and even challenge the Xu family in the future, he couldn't rely on Tengfei Group alone.

Moreover, Chen Fan's net worth had reached 7 billion yesterday, and today's reward hadn't even come in yet. Once it did, he might be able to break 8 billion, bringing him closer to the 10-billion mark.

Chen Fan was clear on what was more important.

"Hmm?"

Jiang Hao grasped the implication of Chen Fan's words and was overjoyed.

"Mr. Chen, are you serious?" Jiang Hao asked, his voice trembling.

"Of course. You'll continue managing Tengfei Group as usual, and we'll discuss any major decisions together," Chen Fan confirmed with a nod.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen... thank you!" Jiang Hao grabbed Chen Fan's hand and thanked him repeatedly.

After their conversation, Chen Fan left Tengfei Group and got into his car.

Then, the system's voice rang in his mind.

[Ding]

[Mission completed: Fight back against Feng Yanli by using his own tactics to remove him from Tengfei Group's decision-making level, making him shoot himself in the foot]

[Congratulations, you have gained: Top financial management skills]

[Congratulations, you have gained: 53 experience points]

As the mission was completed, a flood of knowledge surged into Chen Fan's mind.

A few minutes later, after fully absorbing the information, Chen Fan had acquired top-tier financial management skills, making him a financial management expert.

In addition to this, he also earned 53 experience points from the mission.

Chen Fan checked his system.

[Current system level: Level 1 (303/1500)]

He had accumulated more than 300 points and had gathered one-fifth of the points needed for the system upgrade.

It had only been seven days since he received the system, and Chen Fan discovered the upgrade feature on the third day. So, technically, he had gathered one-fifth of the required points in just five days.

At this rate, it would take only about 20 more days to accumulate the remaining points needed for the upgrade.

That was fast!

Chen Fan smiled to himself.

As he was feeling pleased, another surprise arrived.

[Ding]

[Seven days after severing relations, you have acquired 4% of the shares in Yongtai Real Estate Group, one of the top companies in Jiangzhou, and have been appointed vice president of Yongtai Real Estate Group]

"Shares in Yongtai Real Estate Group?!"

Chen Fan's eyes widened.

Yongtai Real Estate Group was one of the top companies in Jiangzhou, with immense power!

At present, Yongtai Real Estate Group's market value was around 30 billion, and 4% of its shares were worth approximately 1.2 billion.

In an instant, Chen Fan's net worth reached 8 billion, bringing him even closer to 10 billion!

What's more, the system's reward didn't just include shares in Yongtai Real Estate Group—it also came with the title of vice president of the company.

This position held significant weight in Jiangzhou!

Today had truly been a day of incredible gains.

Just as Chen Fan was about to head back to the villa, he received a text message.

Chen Fan glanced down and saw it was from Xia Mengmeng. She asked if he was free today and if he'd like to meet her at Yongjia Shopping Center to hang out.

Yongjia Shopping Center?

"Alright."

Chen Fan agreed, thinking it was a good opportunity to check out Yongjia Shopping Center.

Since acquiring it, he had only visited the shopping center once, and that was just to buy clothes and sign a contract. He hadn't conducted a proper inspection of the place.

Today, he could take the chance to "go undercover" and assess how the mall was running.

About 20 minutes later, Chen Fan arrived at Yongjia Shopping Center first.

While waiting for Xia Mengmeng, he decided to go into a nearby coffee shop, ordered a cup of coffee, and sat down to wait.

A few minutes later, Xia Mengmeng arrived.

Chen Fan went out to meet her.

"Senior Chen, just wait a moment," Xia Mengmeng said mysteriously.

Two minutes later, Xia Ruoshui hurried over.

"Huh, Mr. Chen is here too?" Xia Ruoshui greeted him in surprise.

"Mengmeng, what's going on?" Xia Ruoshui asked with concern.

Since their parents weren't in Jiangzhou, she had been taking care of her younger sister. Earlier, Xia Mengmeng had texted her, saying she wasn't feeling well and asked Xia Ruoshui to come to Yongjia Shopping Center as soon as possible.

Worried, Xia Ruoshui had quickly put her work aside and rushed over.

"Sis, I'm fine. You've been working every day without a break. That's why I came up with an excuse to get you out here. You've been working nonstop for nearly a month—you need to take the afternoon off," Xia Mengmeng said with concern.

Working nonstop for almost a month?!

Chen Fan was taken aback when he heard this.

Xia Ruoshui must have been working herself too hard.

No wonder she was known as the most beautiful CEO in Jiangzhou, a strong woman who had turned a company on the brink of bankruptcy into a thriving success.

Hearing her sister's words, Xia Ruoshui was a little annoyed but also felt touched.

"Oh no, I forgot. I still have homework to finish... What a shame," Xia Mengmeng said with a mischievous smile.

"Alright, sis, just go shopping with Senior Chen. I'll leave now."

With that, Xia Mengmeng quickly ran off.

She had invited both Senior Chen and her sister to create a chance for them to spend time alone together.

Xia Mengmeng genuinely believed her sister and Senior Chen were a perfect match. It would be a shame if they didn't end up together.

So, she had taken it upon herself to act as a "matchmaker" and bring the two of them closer.

Today's plan was to have them shop, dine, and watch a movie together—surely their relationship would heat up quickly after that!

Ah, she really was going above and beyond for her sister's happiness.

It wasn't easy being her!
