As the long-lost son of the Lu family in Jiangzhou, Lu Yi originally thought this was heaven's favor upon him, but the truth was far from it.
Seventeen years of destitution did not earn h...
This woman is really troublesome.
By the way, Ji Qing was keeping an eye on this line, I wonder what the results have been.
Gong Che's expression turned serious when he heard this topic.
“Daniel was a homeless child from childhood, and he probably never knew that his biological father was one of the richest men in Jiangzhou.”
"Lu Yi, a murder case isn't an economic case. Those people dare to mess with him, they dare to mess with you too. Don't get involved in this anymore!"
Huo Jingxi suddenly coughed.
"Why can't we intervene? Lu Yi is seeking justice for the Fan family!"
Gong Che turned his head sharply, glaring at him as if he wanted to punch a hole in him.
Huo Jingxi chuckled awkwardly and shut his mouth.
Lu Yi took a deep breath.
“There aren’t many people in this world who are good to me. The Fan family gave me a home, so it’s only right that I do these things for them.”
Each of the three was preoccupied with their own thoughts, and none of them spoke again.
Lu Yi suddenly remembered something, "Oh right, the Gong family is having a banquet in a few days, right? The Fan family also received an invitation. I think it will be very lively..."
The invitation was on Fan Shenglun's desk.
The large characters on the title page are the word "宫" (palace) in gold foil.
Fan Shenglun didn't mention it at all, so it seems he hasn't agreed yet.
Gong Che pulled his outstretched leg back. "What? The Fan family also received an invitation? My uncle..."
Huo Jingxi laughed and said, "The old man knows he won't have many more birthdays, so why is he so eager to show off the Gong family's status? Bah!"
Gong Che's expression changed. "Watch your mouth!"
Lu Yi subtly turned his body to the side, separating the two of them without leaving a trace.
"If there's nothing else, I'm going to the Gu family's place. Jiaojiao has been getting close to the Lu family lately, so please remind her..."
With no other options, the Lu family might resort to desperate measures.
Otherwise, why would this girl suddenly ask for money, and in such a large sum, several million?
...
In Gong Che's eyes, a carefree and uneducated girl like Ruan Jiaojiao was no different from a good-for-nothing.
But Huo Jingxi felt that she was straightforward and cute, without the airs of a rich heiress, and was much better than Lin Xiaoya, who was vain!
Especially after she came into contact with Lu Baoyun, news about the Lu family kept coming in.
They are less likely to arouse suspicion than so-called informants.
The two cars honked their horns at the same time at the intersection, and then went their separate ways.
Huo Jingxi stared at the car's taillights receding into the distance in the rearview mirror. "You really don't want to let the Lu family go?"
Lu Yi is not so easily fooled.
If he knew that the Lu family was also on Gong Che's revenge list, he would definitely turn his attention to them and render all that evidence worthless.
Gong Che calmly hummed in agreement, gripped the steering wheel with both hands, and sped away.
Huo Jingxi took off the blindfold and rubbed his dark eye sockets.
"I'm warning you, don't drag the Huo family into this, or I'll be the first to object!"
"Also, Lu Yi is my brother. Although he is simple-minded, if you dare to harm him, he will never let it go."
Having spent so much time together, he was always grateful that Lu Yi was his brother, not his rival.
But Gong Che is now relentlessly pursuing the Lu family, making Huo Jingxi uneasy.
Gong Che smoothly overtook several cars and snorted, "Do you think I'm as stupid as you, being played like a fool by the Su family?"
"Since the Gong family has invited the Fan family, the Su family will definitely be there as well. Be prepared!"
The Gong family's interpersonal relationships are even more complex than the Lu family's.
Gong Baoping, the current head of the household, is the son of his maternal grandfather's first wife, and is a half-brother of Gong Che and Huo Jingxi's mother.
After his maternal grandfather passed away, Gong Baoping inherited the entire Gong family's wealth and connections.
It was under his protection that Gong Che was able to rise through the ranks so smoothly.
Although Huo Jingxi did not seem to receive preferential treatment from Gong Baoping, the Gong family also contributed to the Huo family's ability to rise again.
Huo Jingxi hesitated for a moment.
“I’ve already spoken with Lu Yi, and he’ll go too. He’ll go as my brother, and it has nothing to do with the Fan family, the Lu family, or the Gu family.”
Lu Yi will eventually have to start his own business, but Fan Shenglun is keeping a close eye on him.
Not only did they arrange his marriage, but the entire company, from top to bottom, was also run by members of the Fan family.
Lu Yi didn't say it, but Huo Jingxi saw it clearly.
There are always some birds that can't be kept in any cage.
Right now, the only person who can restrain Lu Yi, besides Liang Shiyue, is probably Gu Keke.
Huo Jingxi was worried that Fan Shenglun would secretly instruct the Gu family to sabotage Lu Yi at a crucial moment.
When that time comes, Gong Che's stance will become very important.
“Lu Yi has helped the Huo family so much, and now he has entrusted the most important person to you. You have to protect him, right?”
"If Lu Zhengming is really in cahoots with the mastermind behind the Huo family's downfall, we can just lock him up for a few more years. We can't let Lu Yi suffer the consequences for him!"
Huo Jingxi put on his blindfold and began to speak in a serious tone.
Lu Yi was clear about his grudges and showed no mercy to the Lu family.
Now, besides the crumbling Lu Group, what else does the Lu family have? Lu Baofei has nothing left to offer.
Lu Baoyun's possessions are not even enough to fill the Huo family's teeth.
There was a subtle loophole in the cooperation agreement that Ruan Jiaojiao signed with her. It would have been easy to get Lu Baoyun to hand over the cat cafe.
Lu Yi's methods for dealing with the Lu family were all done in the shadows.
If they don't act now, they won't act now; but if they do, they will definitely cripple the Lu family and plunge them into dire straits.
With such a deep and calculating mind, did Nan Da not have any backup plans for the Huo family?
Huo Jingxi could figure it out even with his toes.
He had his legal team go through all the documents Lu Yi had come into contact with over and over again, but they couldn't find a single suspicious detail.
