Xia Ruo quickly received a message from the thug.

Upon seeing the message, he coldly snorted, "Damn it! Lu Zheng deserves to die, and Xia Linyu deserves to die too!"

He should have had an annual income of several billion, but now it has been reduced from several billion to tens of millions.

And is it really certain that the Xia family group will remain prosperous forever?

not necessarily.

What if one day the Xia family falls from grace and drops from its high position?

By then, Xia Linyu will have hundreds of billions of yuan on her hands, plus the hundreds of billions her father left her. She will be fine and can remain calm and wait for another opportunity to invest.

But for myself, once I'm in that situation, it's like losing everything.

Without these things, he's finished!

This means completely handing over one's fate to someone else.

How could he accept this?

Moreover, President Xia had already made it very clear to the siblings that whoever won this competition would inherit all of his future estate.

That's hundreds of billions, and he just watched helplessly as his sister took it all.

“Honey, Lu Zheng is so hateful. Also, my sister should have been more accommodating to you.”

At this moment, Xia Ruo's wife, Li Yue, came over and sat down beside him, gritting her teeth as she spoke.

For her, this was a windfall she had lost.

If it stays in Xia Ruo's hands, all she has to do is raise a son, and eventually the Xia family's assets will be hers.

This woman was an ordinary person, but President Xia was an extraordinary man who did not object to Xia Ruo dating a commoner.

The two grew up smoothly and got married.

Li Yue usually acts like a well-behaved girl, and she seems to be a virtuous wife to Xia Ruo, never having any other thoughts about her.

But this woman is actually very cunning.

Her goal was to keep Xia Ruo under her control.

She originally thought that if Xia Ruo were a man, then President Xia would undoubtedly give the position to her.

But I didn't expect the old man to pull this stunt.

She immediately became unwilling.

But this woman was truly adept at disguise, managing to remain completely hidden.

Only after Xia Ruo said those words did Li Yue chime in and agree.

Xia Ruo looked at Li Yue and asked, "Do you really think so?"

Li Yue nodded gently: "Of course, honey. Actually, I don't think money matters. Even if it's ten million a year, it's more than we can spend in our lifetime. But I just think Dad is being unfair."

“Lu Zheng is clearly a scumbag, but Dad still believes him. He’s too biased.”

Li Yue is a truly cunning woman; her words instantly turned Xia Ruo's face ashen.

His face was dark, his teeth were clenched, and his eyes were frighteningly venomous.

"Honey, calm down first. I'll go get you a drink to soothe your nerves, what do you say?"

Li Yue has achieved her goal, so there's no need for her to say anything more.

She believed that Xia Ruo would definitely do everything in her power to deal with Lu Zheng and Xia Linyu, and then take back what was rightfully hers.

All she needs to do is continue to play the good girl; it's very simple and doesn't require any effort.

As she turned to leave, Xia Ruo grabbed her wrist.

"What's wrong, honey?"

She continued to ask.

Xia Ruo said, "I want you to come with me to the city where Lu Zheng and the others are."

"Giggle..."

The woman covered her mouth and laughed: "Honey, what would I go do? I don't know how to do anything."

"wrong!"

Xia Ruo turned to look at her: "You're very useful, are you going?"

In fact, Li Yue did not want to get involved in this struggle. She only wanted to control everything remotely. No matter when or where, she just wanted to be a good daughter-in-law and a virtuous wife and mother.

However, Xia Ruo was clearly very unhappy, and this was the first time he had shown such an expression in front of her.

If you want to manipulate her, you have to give something in return.

So the woman immediately sat down and leaned against his shoulder: "I'll listen to my husband. I'll do whatever you say. I'll always be with you."

Xia Ruo nodded in satisfaction.

However, Li Yue raised her head again and said, "Then are you still going to hire that assassin to kill Lu Zheng?"

Xia Ruo snorted coldly: "Since Xia Linyu has already gone to find Lu Zheng, it means she is wary of me. If I make a move, it will be very disadvantageous for me."

He's going to try a different approach.

Didn't Lu Zheng register a robotics company?

He'd set one up too. Besides, he believed there were definitely plenty of other things to do in Lu Zheng's city.

Some people must be very annoyed with Lu Zheng.

After all, Lu Zheng's rise to power will inevitably harm the interests of many people.

Which of these people is a good person?

Seeing their interests being harmed, they would definitely want to deal with Lu Zheng.

Riding this momentum, Xia Ruo felt confident that she was destined to defeat Lu Zheng.

Upon hearing Xia Ruo's words, the woman giggled and said, "Then I'll listen to my husband and do everything the way he wants. I'll make sure Lu Zheng suffers the consequences."

"Hahaha!"

Hearing Li Yue say this, Xia Ruo felt much better and burst into laughter: "That's right, we should make sure that Lu Zheng doesn't get what he deserves! You're right, hahaha, my wife really has the ability!"

"Shall we still drink?" Li Yue gently lifted Xia Ruo's chin and asked with a smile.

Xia Ruo slapped her thigh: "Of course I'll drink it, to wash away the bad luck. I have to drink this wine."

"Okay, I'll go get it for you right away."

After saying that, Li Yue turned and left.

Xia Ruo narrowed her eyes coldly.

Lu Zheng, that bastard has done him a lot of harm. All his interests were ruined because of this kid. He's just holding back now instead of settling scores with him.

It's okay, there's plenty of time.

Once he gets to where Lu Zheng is, let's see what that bastard does next.

They had to make sure Lu Zheng lost everything.

Xia Ruo wanted to make Lu Zheng understand that offending him would have dire consequences.

Furthermore, not only will Lu Zheng die, but everyone around him will also be buried with him.

I heard that Lu Zheng has a girlfriend who is very beautiful. The two of them are inseparable. If this woman were to die one day, wouldn't Lu Zheng be devastated?

Tsk tsk!

He was really looking forward to seeing the look of anguish on Lu Zheng's face when he saw his woman die.

Why did Lu Zheng have to offend me?

This is the price, this is the consequence!

Shortly after, Li Yue brought over the drinks, and he sent a message to his subordinate, telling him to restrain himself and stop making a move.

He would do the rest himself.

The assassin was speechless upon seeing his message, then shook his head, replied with a message, and withdrew it. He figured he'd just do whatever the boss said…
