Upon seeing the large number of patrolling police officers, Luo Xiu temporarily suppressed his arrogance and hid his gun.
Shen Jingmo couldn't help but praise Lin Jing's wit: "Well done, no wonder you've been my special assistant for so many years."
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Shen," Lin Jing said humbly.
If he could, he would like to be President Shen's special assistant for life.
Unfortunately, there may not be such an opportunity again in the future.
So every day thereafter, he hoped to do his best to fulfill his duties.
Luo Xiu rolled down the car window, his sharp blue eyes fixed on Shen Jingmo: "Heh, anyway, you're about to die, so no matter how smug you are now, it won't affect me."
Zhizhi is with me now, and I'm already making wedding preparations. Someone like President Shen, who loves causing trouble, probably won't live to see our wedding day. I'll burn the wedding candy for you when I visit your grave."
Lin Jing gritted his teeth in anger, really wanting to rush out and teach this bastard a lesson.
Shen Jinmo, however, remained calm and composed, leaning back in the back seat: "It's not certain who will die first. I'm just afraid you won't live to see the day you marry Lu Zhiwei."
The two men exchanged harsh words.
But they were all unharmed.
Luo Xiu's phone rang again.
It was a call from the butler of the Luo family manor.
Luo Xiu took out his phone and answered: "You'd better have something important to say."
Having failed to gain any advantage verbally, Luo Xiu was now like a firecracker, ready to explode at any moment.
The butler said in a trembling voice, "Young master, something terrible has happened. Steven has surrounded the manor with a group of men and wants you to come back."
"When did he have the right to threaten me?" Luo Xiu said unhappily.
"He said that if you don't arrive at the manor within half an hour, he'll set it on fire and burn it to the ground." The butler had a gun from one of Steven's men strapped to his neck.
Luo Xiu hung up the phone, told the driver to start the car, and left the police station.
Arrived at the manor.
Steven sat on a deck chair in the yard like the owner of the estate, fiddling with a pistol in his hand.
The three layers inside and out were all Steven's men.
Luo Xiu got out of the car with a cold face and walked to Steven's side: "Steven, do you think I don't have enough trouble already? Instead of helping me, you're just making things difficult for me. What exactly do you want?"
Steven shrugged: "You had your bodyguards take your sister away. If you don't want to marry her to me, just say so. I'm here today to get back my 30% stake. If you don't give it to me today, I'll take this manor as collateral."
The Luo Family Manor is the ancestral home of the Luo family, built at a cost of several billion yuan.
The Luo family manor cannot be sold or given away to an outsider.
"When did I let the bodyguards pick him up?" Luo Xiu had no idea what he was going crazy about again.
"Still playing dumb with me. I thought that after I withdrew the people from your base, you would come to apologize to me. Who knew that you've been obsessed with that woman Lu Zhiwei these past few days and have completely ignored my affairs."
Steven's face was full of resentment; he had been feeling frustrated ever since his good time was interrupted.
He was so angry today that he couldn't control his emotions, which is why he led his men to storm the door.
"I'll have someone retrieve the surveillance footage from that day." Luo Xiu immediately ordered someone to retrieve the surveillance footage from the old house.
Not long after, the surveillance footage was sent over, showing Luo Wuyan running away in the backyard with a bodyguard.
Luo Xiu put down the tablet: "This isn't one of my people at all. You've been fooled. This person has clearly had his face painted. If I'm not mistaken, this man is my sister's lover. They infiltrated the Luo family a long time ago to rescue him."
"Steven, you're a big shot who holds military power on the border, how did you get ruined by some brat?"
Luo Xiu's words were laced with sneer.
Steven was furious. He picked up his gun and pointed it at Luo Xiu. "If you laugh again, believe me, I'll shoot you! Who knows if you're just talking nonsense? You artists know how to tell if someone has been painted. I don't. You think you can fool me easily?"
Luo Xiu spread his hands and patted Steven on the shoulder: "Okay, I can help you get back the humiliation you suffered, but there is one condition. On the day of the artists' exchange conference, I need your people to be deployed outside the venue to help me protect and coordinate with my actions."
Steven looked at him with suspicion: "You old fox, I don't believe you."
"If you don't believe me, then shoot me right now and go back to your border to continue your life of burning, killing, and looting," Luo Xiu said calmly.
He can never be controlled by anyone.
Even Steven, who possessed immense power, was not taken seriously by him.
Steven hesitated for a moment before asking him, "Tell me, how are you going to get back at me for the humiliation I suffered?"
“That’s easy.” Luo Xiu told Steven to put the gun away and sat back down.
Then Luo Xiu asked the manor's maids to come out.
They chose a maid from among the servants whose figure and bone structure most resembled Lu Zhiwei.
He then had someone bring him makeup tools.
Steven watched as he personally applied makeup to the maid.
Luo Xiu, who hadn't painted in a long time, showed no signs of his painting skills.
Two hours later, the ordinary-looking maid transformed into Lu Zhiwei.
"Go and change into this dress." Luo Xiu tossed a white dress to the maid.
The maid, now disguised as Lu Zhiwei, obediently took the dress and went inside to change.
When the maid came out, she was like a beautiful camellia, gentle and bright, and Steven was stunned.
"Mr. Luo, you really have the ability to turn the rotten into the magical. You wouldn't be using these servants to satisfy your desires if you can't get Lu Zhiwei, would you?" Steven teased Luo Xiu with a smile.
