Lu Fan, with a pointed remark, continued his seductive maneuvering as if possessed by a devil:
"Sometimes, what's the point of sticking to a single direction until you hit a wall?"
"Isn't it said that life is wild and doesn't need to be predetermined?"
"If there are any other arrangements after this, I will contact you. The Wang family matter is just the beginning."
Lu Fan also held another "weapon" in his hand—the eavesdropping device that he had asked President Li to install, but which was then stolen by A Yong and installed on Wang Ye's mobile phone.
With this information, Lu Fan could cross-reference the messages from the Wang family.
At the very least, he still has that incompetent General Manager Li, a rather unreliable traitor who was planted in the Wang family long ago!
Gu Ying felt relieved to have resolved a crucial matter in her life, but a sense of exhaustion gradually crept in.
As she relaxed, she yawned.
Seeing that she looked listless and lacked energy, Lu Fan summoned A Yong and instructed him to arrange for someone to send Gu Ying back.
Gu Ying glanced at A Yong, but did not refuse Lu Fan's offer:
"Then I'll go back and rest first. If you need anything in the future, Mr. Lu, just contact me directly."
He then yawned again.
A Yong arranged for a driver to take Gu Ying back to the Gu family home.
Although Gu Ying is only engaged to Wang Ye, they are not married yet, so how could she possibly live at the Wang family's house every day?
Moreover, she now has her own ideas, which is that even if the marriage ultimately has to proceed according to the marriage agreement made by both families.
She wouldn't actually have an affair with Wang Ye.
Gu Ying looked down on Wang Ye at all. After being "persuaded" by Lu Fan, she agreed to cooperate and join forces, knowing that Lu Fan would eventually take action against the Wang family.
Compared to the Wang family, Gu Ying had more faith in Lu Fan's abilities.
The Wang family's ship will capsize sooner or later.
Why should she cling to Wang Ye, that crooked tree?!
Gu Ying wasn't stupid; she could tell that Wang Ye's engagement to her wasn't based on any feelings for her.
They completely used her and the Gu family behind her as bargaining chips to climb the social ladder.
All the fighting and squabbling revolved around the Wang family's business, and Gu Ying really looked down on Wang Ye's narrow-mindedness.
Therefore, Gu Ying felt perfectly justified in targeting the Wang family and Wang Ye. Lu Fan watched Gu Ying drive away and was about to head to the company when his phone rang.
Upon seeing the number belonged to General Manager Li, Lu Fan shook his head and chuckled.
This guy seems really unreliable.
The eavesdropping device was "lost" at the banquet hosted by the Wang family yesterday. It was only when the sun was high in the sky the next day that President Li finally made the call.
How can this be so unreliable!
Lu Fan answered the phone while inwardly grumbling to himself.
Before he could say anything, Mr. Li on the other end started shouting:
"It's terrible, Mr. Lu! Something awful has happened!"
His tone was unusually anxious.
Knowing full well that he was faking it, Lu Fan happily played along, his tone becoming anxious:
"What's wrong? What happened? Could it be that the Wang family has discovered your identity as a mole?"
Lu Fan's words truly made President Li's heart skip a beat.
He swallowed nervously, feeling somewhat embarrassed. His earlier anxious tone faltered, and he said awkwardly:
"It's like this, Mr. Lu, the eavesdropping device you gave me before... it's gone."
After saying this, Mr. Li waited anxiously for Lu Fan's reaction on the other end of the phone...
Based on his previous understanding of Lu Fan, he knew the latter's temperament and personality, and that he would not easily lose his temper with people, especially his subordinates.
Mr. Li had the same idea.
But Lu Fan, whom he regarded as a "shrewd person," was mainly suspicious of the matter.
Lu Fan gave a slow, cold snort, then chuckled at President Li, "President Li, this isn't the first or second time you've acted unethically." "What's wrong? Are you worried that this mission will be difficult, and you're afraid of revealing a flaw and having trouble explaining yourself to the Wang family?"
"That eavesdropping device didn't just disappear; you threw it away yourself, didn't you?"
Mr. Li cried out that he was wronged:
"I'm innocent, boss! I really didn't have it. I always carried that equipment with me, and it was definitely there when I entered the banquet hall."
Who knew that time would be lost in the blink of an eye!
He was truly wronged.
Lu Fan only wanted to frame him and teach him a lesson so that the guy would remember it.
So he patiently inquired of General Manager Li:
"You said it was lost, but surely you don't even know how it was lost, when it was lost, or where it might be lost?"
Hearing these words, which clearly implied suspicion that he had cheated, Mr. Li felt as bitter as if he had swallowed raw gall.
"Boss, I really don't know."
"It can only be that it was lost at the Wang family's place. Mr. Lu... could you try that device? Maybe it's still at the Wang family's place."
"Perhaps it's even more convenient to drop it somewhere than to place it on the eldest son of the Wang family for eavesdropping!"
Lu Fan wasn't interested in cooperating and immediately changed direction:
"Since you said you were so careful, and you still lost it, maybe it wasn't lost in the first place."
