The two exchanged a glance, but seeing that the fence in front of them still hadn't been raised, Dongfang Yue's heart sank.
"I never expected that even after my Dongfang family offered half of what we possessed, they would still ignore us."
Following this path, even if we are fully healthy, we'll likely be turned away.
Dongfang Yue gave a bitter smile. He was almost entirely responsible for the current situation. If he hadn't tried to salvage things back then, the Dongfang family's original status wouldn't have reached this point.
If he had stopped earlier and had stayed with Lu Fan as a loyal subordinate, he might have been able to develop a legitimate career.
Now, in Dongfang Taibai, Lu Fan has been supporting another group of people, who have poached a large number of young people from the Dongfang family, causing the Dongfang family to exist in name only.
No one could tolerate such a situation.
Moreover, they had already amassed considerable status and power, and if they were to fall back into the streets, it would be truly difficult to know where they would begin to develop.
"Father, no matter what, the most important thing right now is to preserve the business we have now. Even if it becomes a small company, at least it can develop in the long term."
So many people in our family are waiting for news from us; we absolutely cannot compromise now!
Dongfang Shuo knew Lu Fan's character very well; he was the kind of person who would eat people without spitting out the scraps. Besides, since he had given Lu Fan so many benefits, it would be too unfair for him to just take without doing anything in return.
"Right now, Lu Fan is one of their people. If we can persuade them, Lu Fan won't dare to attack us easily."
Hearing this, Dongfang Yue cheered up a little. He looked into the distance and then asked the driver to stop the car. When they arrived at the fence, they found that there was only a dog hole underneath.
The entrance to the cave was so narrow that one had to crawl underneath it.
Dongfang Shuo, however, did not seem to hesitate much. After all, if even the slightest accident occurred, the consequences of being expelled would be far greater than those of actually being forced to go through a dog hole.
It's better to experience the pain first; it will be easier to accept the rest later.
After the two of them finished their performance, they hurriedly went to where Old Huang lived.
Just as they arrived, they saw Old Huang drinking tea nearby. Dongfang Shuo rushed over and knelt on the ground.
"I am Dongfang Shuo from the Dongfang family, paying my respects to Elder Huang!"
Upon hearing Dongfang Jiang's name, Elder Huang was somewhat shocked, as he had already ordered that no unauthorized personnel were allowed to enter, especially since the Dongfang family was on the list.
He knew that Lu Fan was going to target the reputation of the Dongfang family, and at this moment he had received many benefits from the Dongfang family. At this moment, he could only keep hiding. As long as the Dongfang family was completely eliminated, there would be nothing left for him.
At that very moment, Dongfang Yue staggered from a distance to Huang Lao and knelt on the ground.
"Please, Elder Huang, save our Dongfang family. Lu Fan and the Nangong family have actually attacked us, which caught us completely off guard."
Furthermore, at this crucial moment, we are your loyal followers. For them to act so blatantly is utterly shameless.
Old Huang simply smiled and looked at the two of them, naturally understanding that they had come to confront him and demand an explanation.
He understood their thoughts, but he didn't want to get involved in the current situation and wanted Lu Fan to completely swallow up the Eastern family.
After all, what he wanted was to integrate all the forces together. No matter what methods Lu Fan used, achieving that step would be enough.
"Why did you all suddenly leave? Besides, there are other people in my yard who have important matters to attend to."
"No unauthorized personnel allowed in. Don't break the rules; it wouldn't look good if you were kicked out."
How could he possibly take the initiative to get involved in such a matter? And since the other party didn't explain it clearly, he could only pretend that he didn't understand anything.
He wanted to use this opportunity to break free from any entanglement with the two of them; perhaps this was the best answer in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, the two people in charge of Dongfeng Shuo were clearly dissatisfied. However, they couldn't bring it up while they were facing off against the other party. They had offered so many things, and now they suddenly had nothing left. It was inevitable that they would feel a great sense of disappointment.
All these circumstances are like a needle stuck in their hearts, from which they cannot extricate themselves at this moment.
"What exactly do you two mean? You need to explain yourselves clearly. Besides, I'm already retired and have no influence outside. You two are just asking me to do things so casually?"
At this moment, Dongfang Yue was already dead inside. On the way here, the instant the railing could not be raised, he already knew that the other party knew everything about the situation.
I felt quite humiliated coming here, especially since I was one of the first people to follow them.
He didn't want to appear in front of the other person in such a sorry state, and wanted to save him some face.
He gritted his teeth and stared at Old Huang in front of him.
"Elder Huang, I have always been your follower and have listened to what you have done from beginning to end."
In this world, the other two vicious dogs you used to keep have come to my door, and there's nothing I can do about it. I just want some peace and quiet.
"I implore you, Elder Huang, to grant me this request. Afterwards, I will absolutely repay your kindness tenfold and follow your wishes in everything I do."
After he said that, Dongfeng Shuo, who was standing next to him, was completely shocked.
He never imagined that this was the same proud father he had always wanted to swallow up and transform the entire family into his own.
Now, all he wants is to live a more comfortable life in the future, and to ensure that his family is not seriously separated from their original way of life.
Old Huang smiled slightly. He already knew that taking money and not doing anything was inappropriate, especially since it had already been made clear.
"Tell me about this in detail so I can take a look and decide how to proceed. Besides, if the opponent is too strong, there's nothing I can do."
After his feigned understanding, Dongfeng Yue recounted the entire story in detail.
After he finished speaking, his gaze was fixed on Old Huang, the man he had followed closely from the very beginning. At this moment, a slight wavering arose in his heart.
That dream of rising to prominence was cut short before it even began, and it died a horrible death.
"I will inquire about this matter first, and then I will give you a chance."
