Chapter 160: The New Rich Family: Showing Their Prowess for the First Time

"Wei Qing, do you feel..." Dai Shiya paused, her eyes swept across the family's newly built power center, the luxurious crystal chandelier reflected a cold light in her eyes, as if foreshadowing some kind of sign of impending storm.

She recalled the victory not long ago, the defeat of the family traitors and the mysterious forces seemed to be yesterday, and the smell of gunpowder seemed to have not yet dissipated.

But the joy of victory quickly dissipated like the morning mist, replaced by an invisible pressure that tightly strangled her throat.

This magnificent hall, which should have symbolized the glory and splendor of the family, is now like a gorgeous cage that imprisons her. The

soft wool carpet under her feet is comfortable to the touch, but it makes her feel inexplicably uneasy. The air is filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, but it can't cover up a hint of tension.

Dai Shiya took a deep breath. Becoming the top existence of the wealthy means standing at the cusp of the storm, and it also means becoming the target of public criticism.

Sure enough, the actions of other wealthy families followed one after another.

At a charity dinner, the representatives of Dai Shiya's family were deliberately placed in a corner, away from the center stage.

Among the elegant ladies, rumors spread quietly like a venomous snake.

"I heard that the means by which the Dai family rose to power were not clean..." "Where did they get so much money? Could it be..." The whispering sound reached Dai Shiya's ears. She took a sip of red wine calmly. The red liquid in the glass was like the anger surging in her heart at this moment.

Then, business competition became extremely fierce.

The partners who had been cooperating happily suddenly regretted, and important projects were inexplicably snatched away.

The newly launched products of the Dai family were maliciously slandered, and the market share was severely impacted.

Within the family, a sense of uneasiness began to spread.

Some people began to question Dai Shiya's ability, and some even secretly colluded with other families to try to profit from it.

Dai Shiya saw all this and ignited a raging fighting spirit in her heart.

She knew that she must not retreat, and must face the difficulties and protect the honor of the family.

She stood in front of the French window, overlooking the bright night view of the city. The neon lights flickered like a beast in the dark night, staring at her.

Wei Qing walked to her side and gently patted her shoulder.

"Shiya, look..." Wei Qing pointed to a document on the table, her tone solemn.

Dai Shiya picked up the document, her eyes fell on a line of words on it, her eyes suddenly stern...

After Dai Shiya read the document carefully, a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.

The people she secretly sent out had cleverly collected evidence of other wealthy families doing bad things.

At the next party of the charity dinner, Dai Shiya attended in a gorgeous dress.

She stood in the middle of the hall, and the crisp sound of her high heels hitting the marble floor attracted everyone's attention.

She slowly opened her mouth, her voice crisp and loud, like a warning bell: "Everyone, today I want to expose some ugly conspiracies." Then, she took out the evidence and showed it one by one.

The faces of those wealthy families turned pale in an instant, their eyes widened, and their eyes were full of panic.

Their lips trembled slightly, and they wanted to defend themselves but had nothing to say.

The guests gathered around, looking at the evidence with surprised expressions.

The people of Dai Shiya's family were stunned at first, and then cheered.

Cheers and applause echoed in the hall, and the oppressive atmosphere just now reversed instantly.

Dai Shiya was as dazzling as a queen in the crowd, and her eyes were firm and confident.

Wei Qing stood aside with a faint smile on her lips and her eyes full of approval.

Throughout the process, she quietly gave Dai Shiya some hints and reminders, and gave her advice.

After the matter was over, they smiled at each other, and that smile was full of trust and tacit understanding.

A warm atmosphere permeated the tense atmosphere around them, just like the warm sun that suddenly appeared in the cold night, making people feel at ease.

However, Dai Shiya knew that this was only a temporary victory.

In an unnoticed corner, a mysterious man was looking at her. Dai Shiya seemed to sense something and glanced in that direction, with the smile on her face slightly frozen. The

antique clock ticked, and every second the pointer passed seemed to be cutting the stagnant air in the family meeting room.

The heavy mahogany tabletop reflected the anxious or questioning faces of the people, which formed a sharp contrast with the portraits of Dai family ancestors hanging on the wall.

The characters in the portraits had sharp eyes, as if examining this meeting that concerned the fate of the family.

"Head of the family, we are developing too fast now. Will it cause a joint boycott from other families?" A family elder broke the silence first, his old voice trembling with a hint of trembling, like a dead leaf swaying in the autumn wind, full of uneasiness.

"Yes, head of the family, we should proceed steadily and step by step, instead of showing off our edge. "Another middle-aged man echoed, wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, his nervousness evident in his words.

Dai Shiya sat in the main seat, tapping the table with her fingers, making a rhythmic sound, like a war drum, beating on everyone's heart.

She looked around, her eyes as sharp as a hawk, taking in everyone's expression.

"I know what you are worried about," Dai Shiya's voice was steady and powerful, with unquestionable majesty, "but we have no way out. Either move forward or be swallowed up, we can only choose the former."

She stood up, walked to the French window, her eyes cast at the bustling city outside the window, with a hint of pride in her tone: "We, the Dai family, have come to this day not by being timid, but by moving forward courageously! If we stagnate because of fear, that would be a real failure!"

She turned around and stared at everyone with burning eyes: "I know that change will bring pain, but only through pain can we be reborn from the ashes! I believe that as long as we unite as one, no difficulty can stop us from moving forward! "

Dai Shiya's words were like a flash of lightning, breaking the oppressive atmosphere in the conference room.

Everyone was infected by her momentum, and their original worries and doubts gradually dissipated, replaced by a high morale.

"The head of the family is right! We can't retreat!"

"We support the head of the family!"

A voice of support rang out in the conference room, rushing towards Dai Shiya like a tide, surrounding her.

Dai Shiya felt this power, and a confident smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Three days later, there will be a top social event..." Dai Shiya's voice stopped abruptly, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.

At the top social event three days later, the light of the crystal chandelier sprinkled on the shiny marble floor, and there were people dressed in fragrant clothes and drinking.

Dai Shiya, dressed in a burgundy dress, gracefully shuttled among the crowd, emitting a confident light in her every move.

"Miss Dai, I heard that you have made great achievements in business recently. You are really young and promising. "A middle-aged man in a suit came over with a glass of champagne, his tone was tentative.

Dai Shiya smiled slightly, with a hint of wisdom in her eyes: "It's just good luck, how can I compare with the rich experience of you seniors." She gently shook the champagne in her hand, and the golden liquid in the glass was like the shining light she was shining at the moment, dazzling people.

"Miss Dai is so humble," another lady came over, her tone was a little weird, "I heard that the Dai family has risen too fast recently, did they use any special means?"

Dai Shiya's eyes became sharp in an instant, but she quickly regained her calm, her tone was indifferent: "The business world is like a battlefield, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit, what's so strange about that? "

Her words were so powerful that the air around them seemed to freeze.

The lady's face froze and she walked away awkwardly.

In the following time, people kept coming to test Dai Shiya, but she resolved them one by one with an elegant attitude.

She was well-spoken and knowledgeable, and the confidence and composure revealed in her every move won the admiration of many neutral families.

"Miss Dai is really as capable as a man!" A family patriarch exclaimed sincerely.

"Yes, the Dai family has such a head of the family, and the future is limitless! "

Amazing voices came one after another, and Dai Shiya became the focus of the whole audience. Her every frown and smile attracted everyone's attention.

She enjoyed the glory of being the center of attention, but she always remained a little sober in her heart.

After the banquet, Dai Shiya stood alone in front of the French window, looking at the brilliant night view outside the window.

The noise faded away, and everything returned to calm, but her heart could not calm down.

She knew that tonight's victory was only temporary, and greater challenges were still to come.

She thought of the restless figures in the family, and frowned slightly.

Wei Qing walked to her side, handed her a glass of warm water, and whispered: "Shiya, everything is ready."

Dai Shiya took the glass of water, but did not drink it. Instead, she held it tightly in her hand, with a complex emotion flashing in her eyes: "The good show has just begun..."
