Chu An chuckled, and his eyes shifted slightly. “Big Brother often mutters that if it wasn’t for the Chu Corporation, he would definitely go out and make a name for himself on his own like Brother Chen.”

Chu An hadn’t been in good health previously, and in fact, doctors have even said that he wouldn’t be able to live very long.

Therefore, Chu Zi had known since he was young that only he could take over the huge Chu Corporation. Therefore, after graduation from school, he directly entered the Chu Corporation and planted himself in the company.

Ji Chen and Chu Zi were in the same circle.

Hence, when Chu Zi heard that Ji Chen had established his own company after returning to the country and had done well, he wanted to get to know Ji Chen.

Mr Chu naturally had a good impression of this young man who had made a name for himself without the help of the Ji Group.

Hearing Chu An’s words, Gu Xiao slightly understood Mr Chu and Chu Zi’s thoughts.

“However, Brother Chu is different from Brother. Brother founded Radiant because he knew that Ji Gao and Old Master Ji would not let go of their power easily. He just left himself a way out.”

Ji Chen, who grew up by Ji Gao and Old Master Ji’s side, knew very well about Ji Gao and Old Master Ji’s desire to control. Therefore, since high school, Ji Chen had already made plans for his future.

She had heard about this from Ji Chen when she was chatting with him.

Chu An thought of how Old Master Ji refused to let go of the Ji Group’s shares and couldn’t help but nod in agreement with Gu Xiao’s words.

“No matter why Brother Chen founded Radiant, the fact that Brother Chen can bring Radiant to where it is now shows Brother Chen’s ability.”

As Chu An spoke, he suddenly remembered that they had not been talking about Ji Chen’s ability originally.

He reverted to the original topic. “What do you think about asking the Chu Corporation to help Brother Chen?”

Gu Xiao was silent for a moment.

Of course, she hoped that Ji Chen could be more relaxed, but she could not guarantee that Ji Chen would be willing to accept the help of the Chu Corporation.

Chu An looked at Gu Xiao and seemed to understand her scruples. He suggested, “Since you’re not sure, why don’t we just call and ask Brother Chen?”

It would be great if Ji Chen was willing to accept. If Ji Chen was not, then they would not force him.

Hearing Chu An’s words, Gu Xiao’s eyes lit up.

“You have a point. 1 will call my brother now.” Gu Xiao said as she picked up her phone, found Ji Chen’s number and called him.

After the phone rang for two to three seconds, Ji Chen answered the call.

Then, Ji Chen’s tired voice came from the other end of the phone. “Xiaoxiao, why are you calling me at this time today? Did something happen?”

Saying this, Ji Chen put down the pen in his hand and raised his hand to rub his aching temples.

Gu Xiao knew that he was busy with the company, so when he contacted Gu Xiao previously, it was mostly at noon or at night. There was very little time to contact her in the morning.

Hence, when he heard the special ringtone he had set for Gu Xiao just now, his heart could not help but skip a beat.

“Brother, I’m fine,” Gu Xiao said and paused. After a while, she spoke again. “I already know about Radiant. Is Radiant doing well now?”

Hearing this, a smile flashed across Ji Chen’s cold eyes.

Seeing that Gu Xiao was hemming and hawing, he thought what it was she was hesitant to say. He did not expect her to be worried about his company.

Ji Chen put down the hand on his forehead. “Xiaoxiao, don’t worry. Radiant is doing well. 1 can handle it.”

“Really? I heard from Chu An that the Ji Group has already banned Radiant in the industry, and some of the cooperation deals have been snatched away by the Ji Group.”

Hearing Gu Xiao’s worried words, Ji Chen felt warm and at the same time, he couldn’t help but blame Chu An.

Xiaoxiao had just returned from the Gu Family Village and must have experienced something bad. Why did he not let Xiaoxiao take the time to adjust her mindset, but rather told her all this?

Gu Xiao, who was on the other side of the phone, seemed to know what Ji Chen was thinking and said directly, “Brother, don’t blame Chu An. If I don’t know now and find out from others later, 1 will be even more worried.”

Hearing this, Ji Chen chuckled.

“I won’t blame him, but don’t worry, Xiaoxiao. I’m fine here,” he emphasized again..
