Because of a single sentence from Shangguan Moyao, the entire room fell into a terrifying silence. Even Wu Jia and his companion stared at Shangguan Moyao in disbelief, as if seeing her for the first time, unable to fathom that those words came from her mouth.

Meanwhile, Beiming Xue, who had been diligently examining Wang Yan's injuries, suddenly stopped her treatment. Her small hands grasped Wang Yan's tightly, and she looked up nervously.

Instantly sensing Beiming Xue's unusual behavior, Wang Yan turned his head to her and softly asked, "Xue'er, what's wrong?"

Beiming Xue's face showed a hint of paleness, yet she bravely shook her head and smiled, saying, "It's nothing."

Wang Yan nodded and turned back to speak to Shangguan Moyao, "President Shangguan truly understands the bigger picture and is indeed a person of responsibility. Once this matter is resolved and we defeat the Xiahou Group, we will naturally return management rights to the Shangguan Group."

However, Shangguan Moyao quickly shook her head and said, "No need, no need, it's quite alright to stay merged."

As Shangguan Moyao's words grew increasingly strange, everyone was nearly flabbergasted. If she hadn't been sitting there in the flesh, they might have thought she was an imposter.

Sir and the others were even more puzzled, unable to comprehend what happened last night that made Wang Yan so successful in taming Shangguan Moyao.

Hu Wei, Qin Tian, and Ma Jun exchanged glances and secretly chuckled: It seems this thorny rose had lost all its thorns in front of Wang Yan.

Yet the heaviness in Beiming Xue's eyes grew more intense, and as she glanced at Shangguan Moyao, a sense of danger arose in her heart.

Throughout the years, many beautiful girls had been around Wang Yan, but never had Beiming Xue felt such a sense of crisis.

Shangguan Moyao was the first to make her feel this threat.

"Feiting, Feiting still hasn't returned. If she were here, she would definitely be able to help me."

After they last separated, Ouyang Feiting had been taken back to the mountain by Ouyang Qiu and had not yet returned. In her moment of helplessness, Beiming Xue naturally thought of Ouyang Feiting.

While Beiming Xue urgently mulled over her thoughts, everyone else was already discussing the plan to deal with the Xiahou Group.

At this moment, Sir said, "President Shangguan, we have three methods to defeat the Xiahou Group, classified as upper, middle, and lower strategies."

Hearing this, everyone lifted their heads and looked towards Sir.

Sir continued, "The lower strategy is to use our own money to buy back our shares, firstly ensuring they don't fall under the control of the Xiahou Group. Then, we can slowly contest against them, finding ways to recover Beiming and Ouyang Group's shares. Because this method is the slowest, I call it the lower strategy."

"What's the middle strategy?"

"The middle strategy is to gather all the capital from both our groups and engage in a direct confrontation with the Xiahou Group. They buy ours, we buy theirs, battling it out until whoever has more money wins. This method can yield results within a few days, but it's possible both sides could suffer greatly, hence it's a middle strategy."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded. Shangguan Moyao asked again, "What's the upper strategy then?"

At this point, Sir hesitated for a moment but then said, "Currently, the Xiahou Group is purchasing Shangguan Group shares. If we use the Shangguan Group as bait and allow them to acquire it, it will inevitably lead to them being internally weakened. We can then combine all our resources for a full assault to acquire Xiahou Group shares, ensuring control over the Xiahou Group. It's a strategy of cutting off their access, the most stable method, hence why I believe it's the upper strategy."

Just as Sir finished speaking, before Shangguan Moyao could respond, Wu Jia and his partner immediately became furious, saying, "Nonsense, using our Shangguan Group as bait, you're dreaming."

"If you lose, wouldn't our Shangguan Group be completely ruined?"

Seeing Wu Jia's fierce reaction, Sir couldn't help but smile bitterly. This method, though good, was indeed challenging for Shangguan Moyao to agree to.

Even if a major victory would see the return of Shangguan Group's shares, no one would willingly take such a risk.

At this moment, with Wu Jia and his companion reacting so strongly, not to mention Shangguan Moyao herself.

Just as Sir was about to give up, Shangguan Moyao suddenly looked at Wang Yan and said, "President Wang, this plan is truly excellent. I think we should go with the third method Sir suggested. What do you think?"

Initially, Wang Yan also thought the third method was indeed unfair to Shangguan Moyao, and didn't expect Shangguan Moyao to agree so readily. Overjoyed, he smiled and said, "President Shangguan has such a big-picture view, I truly underestimated you."

Seeing Shangguan Moyao agree, Wu Li and his partner's expressions changed dramatically, and they hurried to Shangguan Moyao's side, saying, "President, you can't agree to this."

"Our group's assets worth billions, are we just going to hand them over to Peak Group hastily?"

However, Shangguan Moyao completely ignored Wu Jia and his partner and instead smiled at Wang Yan, saying, "President Wang, calling each other 'President' feels overly formal, doesn't it? Since we're all family now, how about this: I call you Brother Wang Yan, and you call me Moyao. How does that sound?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Li and his partner were completely dumbfounded. Was this really the Shangguan Moyao who always disregarded men?

Moreover, just now, Shangguan Moyao appeared to use billions to buy the right to call Wang Yan 'Brother'!

Hearing Shangguan Moyao also wanting to call Wang Yan 'Brother', Beiming Xue's face changed. She alone understood the implication of Shangguan Moyao using that term.

Beiming Xue immediately said, "No way, President Shangguan is older than Brother Wang Yan."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Moyao quickly corrected herself, "In that case, I'll call you Brother Wang Yan instead. Is that alright, Brother Wang Yan?"

Wang Yan didn't understand the series of quick exchanges between Beiming Xue and Shangguan Moyao and casually said, "Sure, it's just a title after all."

Seeing Wang Yan agree, Shangguan Moyao was overjoyed.

Only Beiming Xue's face revealed a deep sense of worry.

With Shangguan Moyao's approval, Sir immediately led everyone out of the office, preparing for a life-and-death confrontation with the Xiahou Group.

Left in the office were Wang Yan, Beiming Xue, Shangguan Moyao, Hu Wei, Qin Tian, and Ma Jun.

Wang Yan said to everyone, "If Sir can decide the outcome with the Xiahou Group, the mysterious figure behind them will surely emerge, and we can find out where Mountain Cannon is hiding. Naturally, it will lead to another battle then. I have a hunch, once that mysterious person appears, it will be another brutal fight."
