Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten

Chapter 1351: Ultimate Goal

After two decades of trials and tribulations, the big four wealthiest families of Jingdu had decided to finally open their doors and perhaps were going to welcome new blood.

Almost the entire business and political worlds in Jingdu were paying attention to this election. No matter whether a new family was elected to become a member of the big four wealthiest families or a present member was removed from their throne, it could be said to be Jingdu’s highlight of the year.

This would mean that the political, business, and military scenes were going to undergo a major change.

Almost 30 years ago, the Han family had used their absolute financial power to break open the stability of the big four wealthiest families. They had crushed the Li family, who had experienced financial difficulties due to the failure of several of their investments, and jumped into the ranks of the big four wealthiest families.

Then, 18 years ago, the Zhao family had been replaced by the Su family. The Su family had been sitting steadily in their position as one of the four biggest families now for 18 years. Being in this position for such a long time was enough for a big family to consolidate their connections and solidify their roots.

The Han family had a longer history than the Su family, but now they were cornered to the point of not being able to fight back against this relatively unknown Qiao family. People were shocked speechless, but they were also curious about how powerful the Qiao family really was.

Perhaps it was because of the Prime Minister’s backing, but the Qiao family’s power in the political and military circles had always been hidden below the surface. Two-thirds of their power was reflected in their financial capabilities. In addition to the two collaboration projects they currently held with the Mu Corporation, the Qiao family had quietly achieved a strong hand financially.

After having arrived at an understanding of the Qiao family’s strengths in various areas, Yun Xi realized that from a certain perspective, the Qiao family’s strength really wasn’t bad.

Although it was not going to be easy for her to topple the Qiao family, it would not be as difficult as she had at first imagined.

The difficult part was that she had to bring down the Qiao family and the Prime Minister. She had to eradicate Mu Feichi’s greatest enemy. That was her ultimate goal.

…

Gu Baifan had his driver drive a particularly loud sedan up the mountain early in the morning. Yun Xi was playing with Great White in the courtyard, but when she saw Gu Baifan entering, she stood up and greeted him.

Her clear eyes scanned Gu Baifan for a moment. His suit was neat and tidy, and he seemed more serious and fierce than an executive director.

Raising her eyebrows, Yun Xi couldn’t help but tease him, “Going to the conference venue so early doesn’t seem like the Young Commander’s style.”

“The Young Commander is not in a hurry. I’m not in a hurry either. Even if I’m late, they will wait for us to arrive before starting. I’m just here for breakfast.”

Yun Xi smiled and patted Great White’s head before gesturing for Gu

Baifan to come in. She now acted as if she was the mistress of the house. “Breakfast is ready. Director Gu, please come in.”

Gu Baifan smiled and followed her into the living room.

Before Mu Feichi came downstairs, the butler came out of the dining room and called Gu Baifan in for breakfast. Yun Xi turned around and went upstairs to call Mu Feichi.

In the master bedroom, Mu Feichi had just come back from his morning run and taken a shower. The moment he stepped out of the bathroom, he saw a figure standing at the door. His hand that was drying his hair paused.

Yun Xi looked at the man who was wearing a black bathrobe. This handsome man looked fresh and charming when he came out of the shower. The warm air seemed to be sizzling with the hormones that emanated from him.

“Director Gu is here. Young Commander, hurry up and get dressed and go downstairs for breakfast. Today is the election. It won’t look good if you’re late.”

“They wouldn’t dare to start anything before I got there.” Mu Feichi continued to dry his hair as he walked toward Yun Xi. He tossed the towel in his hand aside and pulled her into the dressing room.

“What are you doing?” Yun Xi reached out her hand to support herself on the door frame, refusing to budge a single step. “If you want to get dressed, then get dressed. Why are you pulling me along? I’m not going out.”

It was a weekend, and she had already decided that she would wait for the news at home. Even though she already knew the result, she was still unwilling to go out, especially at such a critical juncture. Nothing could ensure her safety more than staying put at Tianyu Mountain!
