Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Offended Someone

The explanation from Lu’s mother made sense, leaving Lu’s father puzzled, "I’ll call and ask." Lu’s father still took out his phone to call an old friend. He needed to know what was going on; only by finding the root of the problem could he possibly resolve the current embarrassing situation.

However, his verification calls were not successful either. After making dozens of calls, only a few people picked up, and they all claimed ignorance. Just as Lu’s father was about to give up, a former business partner, Mr. Sun, said, "Mr. Sun, I’m calling you today to ask... I feel that our company is being targeted by someone. You have many connections; could you tell me who it is?" Lu’s father spoke with a slightly pleading tone.

"My company is in utter chaos right now. I need to find out who’s behind this and beg them to spare me. This is my only chance to bounce back. I’m getting old; if Lu Group falls this time, I won’t have the chance to start over. I’m begging you." Lu’s father lowered his stance, almost every word laced with blood and tears, piercing the listener’s heart.

Mr. Sun, also an elderly man, naturally had a bit of sentimentality, and his experiences were somewhat similar to Lu Yong’an’s. Hearing Lu Yong’an’s words, empathy stirred within him, and his eyes reddened. "Sigh, you should go to Jiahe and find President Xu. That’s all I can say. I hope President Lu can overcome this difficulty." Mr. Sun sighed deeply and ended the call.

"How was it?" Lu’s mother asked nervously looking at the disconnected call.

"It’s Jiahe. It’s that woman Xu Jie who’s been targeting us all along." Lu’s father’s eyes were filled with complexity as he looked at his phone, feeling a bit of fear. He used to dismiss it when others called Xu Jie a she-devil with exceptional means, thinking they were flattering her for her beauty. It wasn’t until this ordeal that he realized the woman’s prowess.

"What did our family do to offend her? Why is she coming after us?" Lu’s mother said in disbelief.
