Chapter 159: Tang Xiwei, the Ancient Greek Goddess of Stirring Up Trouble!

"What? Are Chen Luo and Wen Wan out of their minds?"

"In the past, when Wen Xiu and I fought for all these years, it was always limited skirmishes."

"Now, right from the start, they want a full-scale war with me and immediately fight to the death?"

Yelena, who hadn't slept enough, already had a bit of morning temper, and upon hearing the news, she simply exploded.

Assistant Lin could no longer care about Yelena's rampaging state and immediately began her report.

"Starting from one o'clock, Wanluo Company mobilized massive funds, launching varying degrees of strikes across different industries."

"Among them, our catering companies, automotive companies, and daily necessities companies have all fallen into the opponent's price offense, and are now frantically asking headquarters whether they should launch a price war against them!"

"As for the chemical enterprises and agricultural product processing enterprises, several of their raw material suppliers have vanished one after another. Their material sources have instantly shrunk by nearly half, and they have requested assistance from us, hoping we can help them find new material suppliers."

"And..."

Within a mere ten minutes, Assistant Lin reported the requests and emergencies of more than twenty enterprises in succession.

It could be said that all of Yelena's industries across the entire southeast coast were under attack.

Price wars, harassment raids, pulling the firewood from under the cauldron—they used every conceivable trick.

At present, Yelena's situation was like being on fire from all four sides; the entire Ye Group had been caught completely off guard by the opponent.

"Good, very good!"

"Clap, clap, clap!"

Instead of panicking, Yelena suddenly calmed down and began to applaud directly.

"Truly a wonderful job. You really caught me off guard."

"I suppose I should say, as expected of Wen Wan's man; this streak of madness is cut from the exact same cloth."

Assistant Lin stood anxiously to the side, her phone vibrating continuously with calls from the heads of various subsidiaries beneath them.

"Chairman Ye, the enemy is coming fiercely. Should we launch an immediate counterattack?"

Yelena slowly sat down and extended her right hand in a calming gesture.

"Do not panic. The more critical the moment, the calmer we must remain."

Accompanied by Yelena's gesture, Assistant Lin felt her previous anxiety subside to a certain extent.

Yelena was the highest decision-maker of this company. Only by remaining calm at all times could the others avoid panic and prevent morale from plummeting.

"Although I have never fought Wen Wan directly, those second-generation heirs of the top ten families have suffered quite a few heavy losses at her hands."

"Wen Wan excels most at finding the opponent's flaws amidst an overwhelming, crazy offensive, and then delivering a fatal blow with unexpected methods."

"Chen Luo's actions right now fit this pattern perfectly, so we must be extremely vigilant against their sudden sneak attacks."

"Understood, Chairman Ye. What should we do next?"

Yelena closed her eyes and pondered for a few minutes. Before long, a definitive plan had formed in her mind.

"Assistant Lin, order all our enterprises to launch a full-scale counterattack!"

"If it's a price war, wage it without reservation! If material costs need to be driven up, raise them boldly!"

"Are they not playing a game of cash flow? Her Wen family may be wealthy, but my Ye family is certainly not poor!"

"Yes!"

"Second order! Keep our intelligence department and operations department on high alert at all times."

"Once any suspicious movement is detected, use thunderous means to cut off the enemy's hidden arrows! Never give them a chance!"

"Tell Lin Qian that if necessary, force may be used, just keep it non-lethal."

"Yes! Chairman Ye, I'll handle it right away!"

Assistant Lin walked out, while Yelena turned her head to look out the window.

"Do not think I am unaware of what you are playing at, Chen Luo. You are still a bit lacking."

...

At seven-thirty in the evening, in the suburban estate of Hangzhou.

"The recording is finally done! I'm utterly exhausted!"

In the makeshift studio set up inside the villa's grand hall, Tang Xiwei removed her face mask after finishing the recording of the first set of decoding videos.

Having had to keep a thick mask on while reciting her lines in one continuous breath for ages, she had almost suffocated.

In just over half a day, she had already recorded ten videos—an undeniably high efficiency.

Had she been doing this purely for a salary, she certainly wouldn't have been willing, but since this was a way to exact revenge on Chen Luo, she was more than willing to endure the hardship.

Chen Luo! This is only the first step!

This is merely the first step of my destroying you! I must watch you cry before me!

When you lose everything, I want you to crawl and beg beneath my crotch!

You must use the most humble attitude, the most tragic appearance, and the most pitiful tone to beg me! Beg me to forgive you, and beg me to let you continue being my subservient lapdog!

Hhahahahahaha!

If Chen Luo knew what Tang Xiwei was up to right now, he would surely offer her a word of praise.

You are truly the ancient Greek goddess of stirring up trouble!

You really spare no effort when it comes to causing me grief and ruining my plans!

"President Tang, you've worked hard. Have a cup of water."

Assistant Bao handed over a bottle of mineral water, and Tang Xiwei, too exhausted to be picky, chugged it down in one go, finally soothing her burning, smoking throat just a little bit.

"Assistant Bao, when can this video be uploaded?"

"It can be uploaded in another half an hour. The first video is already undergoing its final editing phase."

"Good, I'm going upstairs to rest. Let me know the moment the data for the first hour of the video comes out."

"Yes, President Tang!"

Dragging her exhausted body, Tang Xiwei walked upstairs and returned to her room. The moment she collapsed onto the bed, a wave of exhaustion washed over her, and she fell fast asleep.

...

Half an hour later, inside the Information Department of the Ye Group.

"Director! Director! There's a situation!"

"What kind of situation? Speak quickly!"

"A video with a skyrocketing view count has appeared across major platforms! It's a critique and exposé targeting the dark secrets of online education courses!"

The director was a man in his forties with a stern, square face.

"This must be the enemy's abnormal operation ordered by Chairman Ye!"

"Can we immediately trace the other party's IP location?"

The technician sitting in front of the computer immediately began operating the console.

"The other party's IP shows as overseas; it seems they used specific technical means to mask their IP."

"I'll give you three minutes to find their IP, and I'll boost this year's bonus by fifty percent!"

"Holy crap! Boss, you serious? Fine, give me three minutes!"

Enticed by the heavy reward, the programmer's hands blurred into afterimages. Following a flurry of operations, it took him a mere two minutes to lock onto the IP address!

"Found it! The signal originates from a suburban estate villa!"

"Good, I'll notify the operations team immediately! You did well, kid, your bonus is secure!"

The director patted the technician's shoulder, walked outside, and pulled out his phone.

"Second Miss! We've locked onto the target's location. I am sending the coordinates to your phone right now."

"Chairman Ye instructed that force may be used if necessary, and we are to destroy all their attempts at any cost!"

As soon as the director finished speaking, an angry shout came from the other end of the line.

"Fine, I get it."

"Damn it! How dare they mess with my sister? If I don't beat them until even their own mother doesn't recognize them, my last name isn't Ye!"

"Operations team, move out!"
