"Knock knock knock..."

Liu Shang stood at the office door, still very polite.

Instead of going into the office immediately, he knocked on the door.

"Please come in!"

Only after hearing that he was allowed to come in did Liu Shang open the office door and go inside.

"Wow, you've really changed a lot in just one day! I heard that Boss Liu has recently become the real boss. Congratulations!"

Zhou Wen looked at Liu Shang, who was dressed very formally, and realized that he was no longer the tasteless person he used to be.

My entire demeanor has begun to change, combined with what I've heard these past few days.

Zhou Wen was now completely certain that Liu Shang's plan had succeeded, and Gu Hai was a thing of the past.

So as soon as she entered, Zhou Wen changed her usual cold demeanor and smiled at Liu Shang as if joking.

"Haha, Mr. Zhou, if there's anything I need, just let me know, and I'll do my best to help."

Liu Shang also enjoyed being fawned over, and smiled as he clasped his hands in a fist salute to Zhou Wen.

"Okay, please have a seat!"

Zhou Wen actually hated dealing with people like Liu Shang; they were all a bunch of thugs and hooligans.

If Liu Shang weren't still somewhat useful to me, I wouldn't even bother with him.

Given Liu Shang's status, Zhou Wen cannot afford to be negligent.

"President Lu."

Liu Shang, who was just about to sit down, heard someone open the door and come in. He looked up at the door and saw Lu Fan push the door open and come in.

Seeing that Lu Fan was still standing, Liu Shang decided not to sit down any longer. He quickly stood up, stretched out his hands, and smiled at Lu Fan.

When Zhou Wen saw Lu Fan arrive, she walked over and greeted him with a smile, extending her hand warmly.

Lu Fan, who had just entered, felt a little uncomfortable seeing the two being so enthusiastic, and he returned their hands one by one.

"Well, let's hurry up, I have some things to take care of later."

Lu Fan glanced at his watch and said to Liu Shang.

The text message Lu Fan received last night told him to meet him in the underground parking lot of his company an hour later.

Lu Fan knew very well that his collaboration with Liu Shang would be complicated and time-consuming, so he made it clear in advance.

"It won't take us long. Here are the materials our company currently has. Take a look."

Liu Shang opened the briefcase he had brought and took out the things he had prepared beforehand.

He placed them all on the table and said to Lu Fan.

"Okay, let me take a look first."

Lu Fan looked at the materials Liu Shang brought, and at first he didn't feel anything special.

But the more I looked at it, the more I felt that there were still some problems with these materials.

“This was done when Gu Hai was still alive. As soon as I came in, I took out all the accounts and found that the money had disappeared according to the shares held by Gu Hai. I have also investigated where the money went, but I have no clues.”

Seeing Lu Fan becoming increasingly serious, Liu Shang felt a little guilty and said to Lu Fan.

"Yes, that's right. Gu Hai isn't the largest shareholder. There must be someone else behind him."

Lu Fan also noticed the problem and threw the documents directly on the table, speaking to Liu Shang.

"What exactly is this person trying to do? Why is he making Liu Shang do all this instead of taking matters into his own hands?"

Listening to the conversation between Liu Shang and Lu Fan, Zhou Wen was a little confused and asked Lu Fan and Liu Shang in a puzzled manner.

"I don't know, but there must be some unspeakable secret involved."

Lu Fan shook his head and said to Zhou Wen.

"President Lu, I have investigated carefully. Your company has no moles. This matter is purely a false alarm."

Liu Shang looked at Lu Fan and remembered something, then said to Lu Fan.

"A misunderstanding?"

He was shocked to learn that the very thing he had been investigating for so long was actually a blunder orchestrated by Liu Shang.

"This is all because of Li Yuan, whom you fired from the company. He found Gu Hai and poached all the projects you were working on. This money is actually just a small benefit that Gu Hai gave to Li Yuan. But why is your company's name being used? Maybe Li Yuan has been using it all along."

Seeing Lu Fan's puzzled look, Liu Shang explained the results of his investigation.

"So it was him! Okay, I understand."

After hearing the results of Liu Shang's investigation, Lu Fan finally understood.

"Shut down all of Gu Hai's shady businesses in your company, and dismiss all his worthless underlings. Just keep a few loyal employees... Then change the company name and hold a shareholders' meeting."

Lu Fan presented Liu Shang with a long list of reform proposals.

"These are also things I want to do."

Hearing that Lu Fan shared the same idea, he wondered if disbanding the business and his underlings would only lead to a rebellion.

Everyone has some bad thoughts, because he got to this position only because of his many brothers.

There are bound to be some concerns.

“I know what your concerns are. If you don’t want to do this, hand over these shady businesses and your underlings to the person you trust most. You’re in the legal business and he’s in the illegal one. With my strong support, the entire capital market will be ours.”

Hearing that Liu Shang shared the same idea, and that so much time had passed without any action, it was clear that he had some concerns.

Seeing that Liu Shang was still full of concerns, Lu Fan had no choice but to give him another idea.

"Mr. Lu, let's sign the contract first. Let me think about this matter some more."

He wanted to make his closest people black, but Liu Shang was nowhere to be found, and Liu Shuang was even further away. After hesitating for a long time, he still had no answer.

In order not to waste time, he handed the contract he was carrying to Lu Fan and said.

"I won't sign this contract yet. I want to make it clear to you that I want to cooperate with a clean company that doesn't have any shady dealings. I'm a big business owner and I don't want to get involved in any underhanded dealings with you. I just want to earn the money I should earn within the bounds of the law."

Lu Fan pushed the contract back in front of Liu Shang and said.

"This matter is of great importance. You know that I got to where I am today because of the support of so many brothers under my command. If I rashly touch their interests, I will be the next Gu Hai."

Looking at Lu Fan, who was determined to make him do that thing, Liu Shang helplessly voiced his concerns.

"Those who aspire to great things should not be timid and hesitant!"

Lu Fan patted Liu Shang on the shoulder and said.

"I will handle it well, Mr. Lu, please wait for my good news."

Looking into Lu Fan's determined eyes, Liu Shang was simply unable to resist.

Liu Shang gritted his teeth and hardened his heart, then said to Lu Fan.

He knew that a man must be ruthless to be a true hero, and if he didn't do something soon...

These brothers who push themselves to the top will also let others take their place.
