"Isn't there any way to preserve it?"
Jiangnan Yan was very unwilling.
FK was a business empire he and Sir John had created together. Now that Sir John's fate was uncertain, he couldn't just hand over FK, which they had painstakingly built, to someone else.
Jiang's father was silent for a moment, then said, "There are only two options now."
"What method?"
“First, with A-Ye back, this problem can be easily solved. Second, with the Huo family facing a crisis at home, they will be too preoccupied to focus on the Asian market.”
Jiangnan Yan frowned, lost in thought.
Both of these methods are extremely difficult nowadays.
Lord Gu's condition is not optimistic. News has come from the Gu family that Gu Jin and Feng Yi have been found, but they are currently seriously injured and unconscious.
The rest of the men who followed the Duke to Kunlun Mountain were almost completely wiped out.
Now that the Duke's whereabouts are unknown, even if he is very powerful, it will be extremely difficult for him to leave Kunlun Mountain alone.
Of course, he hoped that the Duke could really create a miracle, but it was impossible for the Duke to appear in the capital at the moment.
"The idea of setting fire to the Huo family's rear is indeed feasible, but the Huo family has been established in O State for a century and is deeply rooted. Moreover, that is their territory. Given FK's current situation, it is obviously not easy to deliver a fatal blow to them from the rear."
Jiang's father nodded.
"Therefore, we must use their strength against them!"
Jiang Nanyan immediately understood his father's meaning.
"You mean partnering with the UK Foundation?"
The UK Fund's position in Oklahoma and on Wall Street is unparalleled. Even the long-established wealthy and noble Huo family has suffered considerable losses at the hands of the UK Fund in recent years.
The hatred between the two families has reached a point of life and death. If the UK Foundation can intervene, the Huo family's rear will inevitably be shaken.
Jiang's father said, "The situation within the Huo family is very complicated right now. As long as the UK Foundation causes some trouble behind their backs, the people the Huo family has arranged will inevitably fall into disarray. This is the most effective way to resolve the FK crisis right now."
"But we've never worked with the UK Foundation before. Would they really help us?"
"This is also the most difficult point at the moment. The head of the UK Fund, Death, is an elusive person, and the CEO, Jay, is notoriously cunning on Wall Street. Neither of them are kind people. If you want to cooperate with the UK Fund, you must show enough sincerity. Judging from the current layout of the UK Fund, it seems that they have a strong interest in the Chinese market. Perhaps FK has something they want. This is the only bargaining chip we have now."

On the Bai family's side, following the route map Bai Qianmo took after leaving the hospital, they finally pinpointed the direction the car she got into was heading.
Final address: Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences
Upon seeing this address, the Bai family members, Du Muchen, Ji Cong'an, Xie Siming, and others were all stunned.
"Qianmo went to Lord Jue's research lab? Then who was the person who took her away?" Xie Siming looked at Du Muchen with a puzzled expression.
After pondering for a moment, Ji Cong'an voiced his thoughts: "Could it be that the Duke has returned?"
Mentioning the Lord, the expressions of everyone present became somewhat complicated.
Du Muchen's eyelids twitched slightly, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes.
"If you want to know who the other person is, just go and take a look."
Old Bai stood up excitedly: "Okay, I'll go with you."
Xu Hualan comforted him, "Dad, you haven't been feeling well lately. The weather outside hasn't warmed up yet. Be careful that Qianmo doesn't wake up and you get sick again. That child is so filial; she would be heartbroken to see that."
Han Songyan also said, "Dad, let Kang Yan and I go together. After we pick up Qianmo, we'll bring her back to see you immediately."
“Yes, Dad, you shouldn’t go.” Bai Kangyan also tried to persuade him.
Bai Luoyu said, "Don't send so many people. We don't even know what the situation is over there. Sending too many people will only alert them. I think it's better if I go with Young Master Chen and the others. You guys wait for news at home."
Du Muchen agreed with Bai Luoyu's statement and nodded.
"We don't yet know what the purpose of the people who took Qianmo away is. For safety's sake, the fewer people the better."
After careful consideration, the Bai family decided to let Bai Luoyu go to the research institute with Du Muchen, Ji Cong'an, and Xie Siming.
Research Institute
Yuan You waited outside the laboratory for a while, then suddenly remembered that Chu Yi was still outside.
If he doesn't come out within an hour, I'll call the police on the first day of the lunar month.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly greeted Fang Shu and ran downstairs.
As soon as he stepped out the door, Chu Yi, who was waiting nearby, saw him and immediately rushed over.
"Yuanyou, are you alright?"
Yuan You shook his head with a smile, his mood seemingly completely different from before he went in.
He shook his head, turned around, and greeted the two burly men guarding the door.
"Brothers, please take good care of your posts. If you need anything, just let me know."
Two burly men stood upright and glared at him expressionlessly.
Is this kid crazy?
Just before we went in, he was all threatening and intimidating, like he was going to beat us up or kill us. But after we went in with Commander Fang, he was like a completely different person.
Chu Yi glanced fearfully at the two burly men and pulled Yuan You away to hide far away.
"Brother Yuanyou, what's the situation inside? Should we call the police now or notify the Chinese Academy of Sciences first?"
Yuan You smiled and said, "No need to call the police or notify the Chinese Academy of Sciences."
The first-year student's face was full of confusion.
"Why not call the police or notify the Chinese Academy of Sciences? Are we just going to let these uninvited guests run amok in the boss's lab?"
"What uninvited guest? The person inside is the boss."
"Boss? Brother Yuanyou, is he really the boss?" Chu Yi grabbed Yuanyou's arm excitedly.
"It's the boss. He's in the lab, as you know. The boss's lab uses a fingerprint lock; only the boss himself can open that door."
"Ah, the boss is back! The boss is really back!!"
