Lu Fan simply looked at the other party quietly. He naturally understood the meaning behind those words and could sense that these people were somewhat displeased with him.

However, the most comfortable thing for him is to make these people submit to him in the future.

"You think I look down on you? I just want to be someone, and besides, everyone's abilities are obvious. You're not as skilled, so what's wrong with listening to others' opinions?"

Besides, the entire Dongfang family is in my hands. What's the point of all your nagging? In the end, it all comes down to what I do!

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yue paused for a long time without continuing. He could also sense the weight of Lu Fan's words and naturally realized that he was already at a disadvantage, and further unreasonable behavior would be pointless.

Sometimes, recognizing one's own limitations is a crucial decision, so he looked at the other person, nodded, and smiled slightly.

Even so, he didn't want to just give in to the other party. He had a lot of leverage over Lu Fan, and Lu Fan's next actions were entirely under his control.

"President Lu, I am fully aware of what you are doing. Are you sure you want to do this to Zhang Qi? There's no need for everyone to fight to the death!"

If he were just an ordinary person, he wouldn't care much if he supported Lu Fan as the next leader.

In his view, Lu Fan's strength was indeed evident to a certain extent, which also demonstrated his own power.

He naturally understood that by helping this uncle, his own future would be bright.

Even so, he still felt that things were probably not that simple. Besides, contacting the other party was a matter of life and death.

"Mr. Lu, I'm afraid we can't accept the decision you've made. If we offend them, how will people like us survive?"

"Your side is afraid to make the first move, but what about us? We can't do anything about it if you act recklessly, disregarding the lives of others."

Right after he finished speaking, he made it clear that he was going to pledge allegiance to the other party and tell him everything that Lu Fan had in his hands.

Dongfang Yue was naturally aware of what Lu Fan was about to do, and the things he had now grasped were bound to cause a bloody storm.

"So you're saying you want to join Zhang Qi's side? If you want, you can go ahead, but I guarantee you'll regret it then!"

Lu Fan was naturally aware that the other party was not an ordinary person, and that his actions were intended to escalate the situation.

Dongfang Yue naturally knew that this matter could not harm Lu Fan in the slightest; on the contrary, it had a huge impact on him.

He naturally understood what kind of person Zhang Qi was, and that cooperating with such a person was like entering an abyss.

Rather than that, it would be better to follow in Lu Fan's footsteps. After all, compared to Lu Fan, this could bring him some comfort.

Moreover, every decision he makes is made with everyone's interests in mind, and to some extent, it also protects them.

"To be honest, it won't be long before they come begging to me. Do you think Zhang Qi can control the situation? Do you think he can stir up a storm just because he has always relied on his father?"

Each of these questions hit the nail on the head, and as the leader of the family, he naturally knew that Zhang Qi was not worth considering.

People like this can't be supported by just one or two people; calling them incompetent rulers is not an exaggeration at all.

He had learned about the other party beforehand and was naturally aware of the power behind him, but even so, he still did not choose to use him as his future protector.

The reason for this is well known to everyone!

"It seems that your information network is indeed quite extensive, Mr. Lu. Since you already know so much, there's no need to keep up the pretense any longer."

I'd like to know what your plans are going to be next. If possible, my Dongfang family would be happy to join you.

Lu Fan was well aware of the power of the Dongfang family and knew that he had to bring Dongfang Yue into his camp in order to get the Ximen family members from other companies to side with him.

After all, the strength that Dongfang Yue displayed back then made many people feel ashamed. It can be said that his influence in those companies was only slightly weaker than that of the Ximen family.

The two families cooperated more frequently and had a closer relationship, which indirectly showed that the matter was more secure than they had imagined.

After a moment's thought, he looked at the other person.

"Some people don't need you. My respect for you is because you were admired by many people back then for your own strength."

I also know that your leadership can guide my direction, or rather, we can maintain a cooperative relationship!

Lu Fan knew that he had to guarantee all of the other party's rights, even if it meant making some concessions, which would bring huge benefits in return.

It was crystal clear which of the two was more important. He looked at the other person and remained silent for a long time.

He wanted to know what the other party really wanted. When Dongfang Yue heard this answer, she was slightly taken aback.

He knew very well that Lu Fan had always acted as if he was the only one who mattered in the world, and everyone else was well aware of that.

Lu Fan's own strength is so terrifying that even if he can't achieve it in Jinghai now, he can at least reach 80%.

Based on this alone, he could continue to compare himself with them without having to compromise so much. He could also figure out that they probably wanted something from him.

Thinking back to what had just happened, he knew that Lu Fan had already made the biggest concession, and now this was a good outcome for him.

"Are you sure it's a cooperative relationship? If so, my Dongfang family can certainly cooperate, but we want to use all the command authority of the entire Dongfang family."

Hearing this, Lu Fan remained silent. He also knew that it was difficult to unify the Dongfang family now, as most of them were on his side.

The younger generation, in particular, almost all regard him as a leader. If he were a member of the Eastern family, then this matter would undergo earth-shattering changes.

“There are some things that I can’t decide. I believe you are a smart person and you understand the ins and outs of this.”

Dongfang Yue remained silent, as Lu Fan intended for him to reintegrate the entire Dongfang family himself.

He knew that doing so would be difficult, but the potential benefits would be enormous.

It's self-evident which side the two lean towards.
