Chapter 360: Chapter 222: The Strong Enemy’s "Encirclement and Interception

Of course, he didn’t dare. ’This is President Xu’s office! What if something happens? How could Xu Wu maintain her authority in the future!’

He forced himself to endure, fighting against his own Endurance Value!

But his hands pressed further and further down!

Luckily, Xu Wu was wearing long pants. Otherwise, Chen Xiao feared he wouldn’t be able to resist giving her the same treatment as Gao Yue!

Thinking of Gao Yue, he remembered it was on this very sofa. That day, it had only taken him a few minutes to bring his Tathagata Divine Palm and Eagle Claw Skill to the peak of perfection!

"Chen Xiao, is there really that much flesh on my back?"

Xu Wu’s sharp cry brought Chen Xiao back to his senses. Lost in thought about that day, his hands had unconsciously started "practicing" again!

’My skills are on another level now. I can project my power through barriers!’

"Your back is all bone. It’s hurting my hands, so I’m looking for a fleshier spot to give them a break..."

Xu Wu was blushing so hard her face could have been dripping blood, though Chen Xiao couldn’t see it. She had no strength left in her body, leaving him to his mischief behind her!

A few minutes passed. Hearing Chen Xiao’s heavy breathing, Xu Wu couldn’t help but say nervously, "Chen Xiao, maybe you should just stick to my back..."

HUFF... HNGH...

She didn’t see that Chen Xiao’s eyes had turned red, a testament to how painfully he was restraining himself!

Xu Wu’s words brought him a moment of clarity, and he moved his hands back to her back to continue kneading.

Because she was lying on her stomach, Chen Xiao couldn’t reach her shoulders from behind. He found himself an excellent excuse and, without a word, sat right on her backside!

"You’re really not holding back, are you? You’re so heavy!"

Xu Wu teased him, which only spurred him on even more!

As he pressed down on her shoulders, her upper body swayed slightly. Chen Xiao coordinated with the movement, needing to exert force with his lower body—otherwise, his base would be unstable, and his arms couldn’t apply pressure!

Caught in this pincer attack from above and below, Xu Wu was left dazed and dizzy, her consciousness starting to fade.

Fortunately, at that moment, her phone actually rang, waking Chen Xiao from his stupor as well!

"I’ll get the phone!"

Chen Xiao got off. Xu Wu rolled over and sat up, straightening her hair and wrinkled clothes before shooting Chen Xiao a glare.

Meanwhile, Chen Xiao sat there looking like an innocent child. You would never guess what kind of hooliganism such a person had just committed. ℴ

The call was from Xu Jun. Junxiao Business Management’s grand acquisition plan was proceeding smoothly. Of the three new projects Xu Jun had been negotiating, two were basically finalized. With that, Junxiao Business Management would soon have eight projects in Hanjiang alone, and all of them were the highest quality!

This made Junxiao Business Management’s prominence and influence unrivaled for a time. According to rumors, even the big boss of Wansheng Group, President Wang, was now re-evaluating his own decisions. Had he raised a tiger that would come back to bite him by selling off several prime, heavy-asset projects to Junxiao Business Management just to recover capital?

Because in the current Hanjiang business landscape, it wasn’t a matter of Wansheng Group Hanjiang Region just losing ground; they were simply no match for Junxiao Business Management at all.

A single casual move from their side was enough to cripple the Wansheng Hanjiang Region.

President Wang hadn’t expected Junxiao Business Management to have such ambitions at first. He had originally thought it was just some local capital trying to enter the commercial real estate market.

He’d looked down on them initially. ’A bunch of country bumpkins. So what if they have a little money? Look how full of themselves they are!’

’Sell, sell, sell. Sell it all to them. Sell it at a high price to get our capital back. Then, when they inevitably mismanage the properties, we can go back and negotiate an asset-light management deal to make another pile of money!’

Unfortunately, less than two months later, he discovered his wishful thinking was falling apart. Reality was not playing out that way at all.

Junxiao Business Management wasn’t just dabbling; they had wolfish ambitions!

At first, President Wang didn’t think Junxiao Business Management could have such strong financial backing. After all, even he had stopped playing the heavy-asset game. On what basis could Junxiao possibly do it?

It wasn’t until Junxiao Business Management had bought six commercial plazas and was still negotiating acquisitions everywhere—and not just in the Hanjiang Region—that he realized.

Only then did President Wang start to take them seriously. Junxiao Business Management had transformed from a buyer into a competitor, albeit still a very small one.

But this "smallness" was only when viewed from a national perspective. In terms of overall scale, they were far from matching Wansheng Group.

But what about on a local battlefield? In a place like Hanjiang Province, Junxiao Business Management was concentrating its superior forces to fight a war of annihilation. They could potentially drive Wansheng Group out of the market entirely.

This was something President Wang absolutely could not tolerate. He couldn’t afford to lose face like that.

He gave CEO Wang Jun a direct order: the territory in Hanjiang must be held, no matter what.

They were permitted to start with a defensive strategy, preserve their strength, and then look for an opportunity to counterattack.

This was the intelligence Xu Jun had received. There were no real secrets in the business world.

For instance, who from Wansheng Group Hanjiang Region didn’t want to foster a good relationship with President Xu Jun now? Who didn’t want a job at Junxiao Business Management? Under these circumstances, Xu Jun didn’t even need to ask. People were falling over themselves to curry favor, immediately informing him of every plan Wansheng Group had formulated against Junxiao Business Management.

The current state of the regional company was also a huge headache for Wang Jun. He had considered the worst-case scenario: Wansheng Square would lose a few good projects, but he could leverage his own professional expertise to slowly build up the less successful venues.

Which of their previously successful venues hadn’t gone through a difficult period?

But he never expected Junxiao Business Management. This was sheer wolfish ambition! An amateur they had once looked down upon had entered the ring and, with a flurry of wild punches, beaten the old master to death!

In just two months, they had nearly dismantled Wansheng Group’s entire Hanjiang Region operation.

Forced by the situation, he had no choice but to give a special report to the big boss, President Wang, explaining the threat posed by this company, Junxiao Business Management.

After the report, Wang Jun held a meeting with the regional company to announce their new strategy.

They were now to encircle, pursue, and block Junxiao Business Management at every turn!
