This novel was adapted into a short drama called "Red Fruit," which can be searched for.
Lu Chi was an 18th-tier celebrity who finally got the chance to appear on a dating reality sho...
With a rough and powerful voice, Jiang Shangkun said through grief, "There's no need to investigate this at all; it was done by the gangsters!"
"The conflicts that arose from our deals with the gangs were known to no third party except ourselves."
"Lu Chi, the son of the Lu family, was still living in the slums when we were making deals with the gang. He was just a teenager. Let alone going abroad, he hadn't even left his slum in China. There was no way he could have known about this!"
"So, this is true, it was done by the gang!"
Jiang Shangkun's words made a lot of sense to everyone present!
yes!
The transactions between the park and the gang were kept secret by no third party, and Lu Chi had no opportunity to contact either party.
Therefore, everything Lu Chi said is true; he would never lie!
Jiang Shangkun said in a low voice, "So the first thing we need to do is to eradicate the gang, and the second thing is to bring Lu Chi, who knows the truth..."
He made a throat-slitting gesture, "...Destroy it!"
"yes!"
A group of subordinates answered.
Jiang Shangkun said to Zhang Hu, "Xiao Hu, I'm entrusting these two matters to you. First, eliminate the gang, then deal with that Lu Chi. You need to carefully plan and coordinate the operation."
Zhang Hu stood up, clasped his hands in a fist and bowed respectfully, saying, "Yes, Godfather!"
...
Lu Chi woke up naturally.
I checked the time and it was already past ten o'clock.
Get up quickly, wash up, and go downstairs.
When Wang Ma saw that he was awake, she asked Lao He to bring up the warm breakfast.
Looking around, apart from the third sister Lu Yanxin and the fifth sister Lu Yunke, everyone else in the family was there.
Lu Yuanqing was sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed, seemingly lost in thought.
Pan Feng sat listlessly next to Lu Yuanqing, yawning one after another.
Guagua: [Your mom didn't get home until 3 a.m. this morning...]
Pan Feng, who was yawning: "..." Oh no!
She rushed over and grabbed Lu Chi, saying, "Son, son, I saw you were sleeping so soundly this morning that I didn't have the heart to wake you. Come and have breakfast, look, there's king crab, which you like."
Lu Sangning, also known as Lu Chi, said, "Little brother Lu Chi, the crab legs are already peeled. Come and dip them in vinegar to eat."
Lu Yuanqing opened his eyes after hearing the noise.
A fleeting look of weariness crossed his eyes.
Lu Chi walked to the dining table and sat down.
Breakfast consisted of congee with eggs and lean pork, king crab, a small plate of peanuts, and pickled vegetables.
While eating breakfast, Lu Chi asked Lu Yuanqing, "Dad, how is it?"
Lu Yuanqing sighed and said, "The losses of the three companies are not significant. It's just that some people stirred up trouble, which affected the reputation of our Lu family and caused our stock to fall."
Lu Chi slurped up a mouthful of crab meat and comforted Lu Yuanqing: "Dad, this was done by the park. They suspected that our Lu family destroyed their Park No. 9, or that our Lu family was inextricably linked to the destruction of Park No. 9."
The park's leader, that old geezer Jiang Shangkun, is seeking revenge for his son Jiang Feng. Adhering to the principle of "better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free," he's waging a global manhunt.
Lu Yuanqing nodded: "I also suspect that it was done by the park, but the park doesn't have any industries outside, and the things it sells all have specific channels. It usually focuses on fraud, so it's not easy to deal with the park."
After hearing Lu Yuanqing's words, the eldest sister, Lu Sangning, lowered her head and remained silent.
The high-level meeting held last night discussed this at length, and the only solution was to abandon the companies in these three countries.
However, the loss of the company is small, but the loss of the company's reputation is big, and the stock price has already dropped a lot.
For a company, reputation is arguably the foundation of its survival.
Lu Chi took another big bite of crab meat. And I must say, fresh meat with lean meat porridge, dipped in vinegar, and some salted vegetables made by Lao He himself was a perfect match.
"Dad, don't worry about this, I have a solution."
Lu Yuanqing got up from the sofa and sat down opposite Lu Chi.
Pan Feng also sat down, looking at Lu Chi with expectant eyes.
My son is truly a lucky star in our family. As long as he's around, there's nothing we can't solve.
The eldest sister, Lu Sangning, looked up at Lu Chi, waiting for him to come up with a good idea.
The second sister, Lu Qingru, and the fourth sister, Lu Xiaoyue, also stared at Lu Chi expectantly, waiting for him to speak.
Pan Feng couldn't help but ask, "Chi'er, do you have any good ideas?"
Lu Chi took a sip of milk and said, "Mom, I think we need to come up with a specific strategy based on the specific circumstances of the three countries and the three companies."
"The analysis is as follows: First, the main problem of the Lao company is that the financial officer absconded with the money, and the company's 100 employees were incited to demand their unpaid wages."
"Secondly, the real estate company in northern Myanmar also absconded with the funds, and the buyers were tricked by people who claimed that the houses were haunted and demanded refunds."
Lu Yuanqing nodded, looking pleased. His son had indeed planned everything perfectly.
Lu Chi continued, "And in Yue Kingdom, the main incidents were vandalism and looting in shopping malls, right?"
Pan Feng exclaimed excitedly, "Yes, yes, son, all correct! All correct!"
Lu Chi picked up a large crab leg and said while gnawing on it, "The Laotian accountant absconded with the money. Now we need to call the police to arrest this accountant. The employees have been incited, so we need to find the instigator behind it. The employees' salaries will be paid as usual, and the person who instigated the disturbance should go to jail."
Lu Qingru shook her head: "Brother Lu Chi, the problem is that after the investigation, we don't know where the finance department has gone to hide, and the people who instigated the disturbance have also disappeared without a trace."
Lu Chi chuckled and said, "The finance manager and the instigator are currently hiding at the Kawai Hotel in Laos. They are playing mahjong at a table with four people. Tell the person in charge of the company there to call the police and have them arrested immediately."
Upon hearing this, a smile immediately appeared on Lu Yuanqing's handsome old face.
He didn't sleep all night because of company matters. If he hadn't been afraid of disturbing his son's rest, he would have gone to talk to Lu Chi tonight.
He knew he needed to call the police to arrest the accountants and those who instigated the disturbance, but the problem was he didn't know where these people were hiding.
Moreover, while the person in charge of finances is clear, it's still necessary to investigate who instigated the disturbance. Even if the police are called, it won't be of much use in the short term.
I never expected my son to pinpoint where the person was hiding so quickly. He really is my wonderful son!
Lu Yuanqing took out his phone and dialed the number of the person in charge of the company in Laos, asking them to call the police immediately.
"What about northern Myanmar, son?"
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yuanqing sat back down opposite Lu Chi, waiting for his son to offer advice.
“The situation in northern Myanmar is a bit tricky. The finance person is currently in the industrial park, and this finance person originally worked in the park, but infiltrated our company. In the past, many of the company’s employees have gone missing, and it’s all related to him.”
Lu Yuanqing was shocked: "What? The finance person is actually from the park?"
Pan Feng said with some fear, "It's over, it's over. In the end, they won't say that our company was an accomplice, involved in the fraud and human trafficking in the park, will they?"
