"You bastard, you killed my son! He was your own nephew! I'll fight you to the death!" Yu Lu screamed in anguish. She rushed to Yu Zhong's side and attacked him like a mad lioness.
Caught off guard, Yu Zhong's face was scratched with several bloody wounds. He cried out in pain, kicked Yu Lu to the ground, and roared angrily, "Are you crazy? We're the ones in cahoots!"
"You killed my son... I'll fight you to the death, I'll die with you." Yu Lu stood up as if she had gone mad and lunged at him again.
The pain of killing her son had completely robbed her of her reason. Now, all she wanted to do was kill the bastard in front of her, and nothing else mattered.
"Get the hell out of here!" Yu Zhong roared, kicking her to the ground. "Your good-for-nothing son dared to ruin our plans. So what if he's dead? We can just find another man and have another one."
"It's too late to say anything now. Anyone who dares to block my way must die. If you go crazy again, believe me, I'll kill you too."
"I want to die with you, die together..." Yu Lu cried and screamed. She had been kicked hard, and she struggled and roared on the ground, no different from a madwoman.
Originally, she and Yu Zhong were siblings, and they had come together today to force the emperor to resign. However, internal strife broke out, and things escalated to this point, which was something no one had anticipated.
"Do you think you're so smart?" Ye Xingchen sneered. "Don't you have any idea what kind of people your own brothers are? You're conspiring with a tiger, who can you blame?"
"Wenhao, I'm so sorry, Wenhao, I'm so sorry..." Yu Lu cried her heart out, lying on the ground without regard for her appearance, wailing like a madwoman.
"Mom, don't cry, I'm fine." Just then, Chen Wenhao walked in.
"Wenhao, Haohao..." Yu Lu frantically scrambled to her feet, not caring whether her son was a human or a ghost, and hugged him tightly before kneeling down and crying.
"Luckily Ye Xingchen arrived in time, otherwise I would really be dead." Chen Wenhao advised, "Mom, stop thinking about those unrealistic things. Don't you know what kind of people my uncle and his family are? If they really seize power in the Chen family, the first people they'll target will be you and me."
"I know, it was my fault. I won't talk to you anymore, sweetie, Mommy was wrong." Yu Lu held her son's face and cried like a baby.
She felt a sense of relief, as if she had escaped a disaster. She never imagined that her family, whom she had always supported, would be so ruthless. Fortunately, her son was alright; otherwise, she would not have been at peace even if she had given her own life to atone for it.
"Er Ma, you've got guts." Yu Zhong glared angrily at Er Ma. He knew Er Ma had betrayed him, and Li Sheng probably hadn't solved the problem either. Li Sheng knew too many of his secrets, and this time he was probably finished.
"Mr. Yu, I'm sorry, but you're really not good to your brothers. Everyone is risking their lives for you, but you only care about yourself." Er Ma shook his head and said, "Following you won't end well. I'm doing this for myself, so don't blame me."
"Go to hell! Without me, you wouldn't be where you are today!" Yu Zhong roared. "You ungrateful bastard!"
"I've done so many dirty jobs and so many things for you to get to where I am today. I'm sorry, I want to live." Er Ma said coldly, "You've given me a lot, and I've done a lot of heinous things for you, so we're both equally guilty. Let's not talk about who's who, okay?"
"Don't let me recover, or you'll be the first one I kill." Yu Zhong angrily shouted at Er Ma in the conference room. He vowed that as long as he could get through this, the first person he would kill was the one who betrayed him.
"Don't worry, you don't have a chance to recover. You are suspected of money laundering and embezzling company assets, and the amount is huge. Someone will take you away now." Ye Xingchen said with a smile, "I'll give you a dignified way out. It's up to you whether you want to take advantage of it or not."
"Who the hell dares to touch me?" Yu Zhong roared.
"Yu Zhong." Just then, the door opened, and Chen Changye appeared in the doorway.
"Old Chen?" Yu Lu was taken aback, and she showed an expression of disbelief.
Chen Changye was poisoned; she herself had poisoned him, and there was no antidote. Yet, Chen Changye was standing there unharmed, which truly surprised her.
"Chen Changye, you, you actually managed to regain consciousness?" Yu Zhong looked at Chen Changye in astonishment, his whole body trembling.
He personally brought back those drugs that could cause people to lose their minds from abroad. He originally thought that Chen Changye would never be able to come back this time, but now he is standing here unharmed. How did this happen?
"Dad, are you alright?" Chen Qian ran over, grasped her father's hand, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
She was truly happy, even though she had only been in charge of the company for less than ten days, those ten days were the most difficult time for her.
Whenever she felt she couldn't hold on any longer, she would tell herself that she had no way out and that she had to persevere no matter what. Her efforts finally paid off when her father returned.
"Xixi, you've done a good job these past few days." Chen Changye held his daughter's hand with affection. "This has been a test and a trial for you. From now on, I can confidently hand over the Chen Group to you."
Overjoyed, Chen Qian burst into tears and threw herself into her father's arms, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
Chen Changye patted her on the shoulder and then walked towards Yu Qiang.
Yu Qiang pulled a gun from his waist and pointed it menacingly at Chen Changye: "Chen Changye, you tricked me, I'll take you down with me today."
"Xiaoqiang, put down the gun." Chen Changye sighed. "There are many paths in life, so don't narrow your own path."
"Heh, you've taken the wrong path? Chen Changye, stop pretending in front of me. So what if you come from a better background?" Yu Qiang roared, "You should have died sooner, and you should have handed over the Chen Group to me sooner."
“You should give me what I want directly, instead of me having to go to great lengths to take it from you. Do you know that you are a hypocrite? You shouldn’t resist.”
“Your parents spoiled you like this since you were little, it’s really their fault.” Chen Changye sighed and waved his hand, saying, “Take him away.”
Several police officers rushed in, and as soon as they saw the gun in Yu Qiang's hand, one of them immediately drew his own.
"Yu Qiang, put down the gun. Your crime doesn't warrant the death penalty. Don't ruin your life. If you cooperate actively, you can get a reduced sentence," a policeman said sternly.
