As Liu Shang watched the police car drive away, he felt uncertain.
It's unclear whether his move to befriend the police was the right one. If they really are there to befriend him, it would be a huge boost for Liu Shang right now.
If I'm not here to make friends, then I'm in danger.
I looked at the sky, then went back to the company.
"Big brother."
Liu Shuang, who had been waiting in the hall for Liu Shang to return, saw her older brother come back and quickly ran up to him.
"What? Are you standing here looking for me?"
Looking at Liu Shuang, who was still in the hall, Liu Shang glanced around and saw that there was no one else there.
"If he's not waiting for someone else, then he's specifically waiting for me," Liu Shuang asked.
"Brother, what are the police doing here?"
Liu Shuang looked around and, seeing no one else, nervously asked Liu Shang.
"Let's talk in my office."
Seeing Liu Shuang's nervous look, Liu Shang patted him on the shoulder and said.
Liu Shuang, who had been patted on the shoulder, knew what was going on and followed Liu Shang directly into the elevator.
——
"I'm back."
Jiang Manyue was still sitting on the sofa watching TV when she saw Lu Fan open the door and come in.
"Um."
After a long day at the company, Lu Fan returned home, exhausted, took off his suit jacket and shoes, and sat down on the sofa.
"You look very tired? Has something happened at the company again?"
Seeing that Lu Fan, who is usually lively and energetic when he comes home, suddenly seemed listless today, Jiang Manyue asked.
"Nothing much is going on at the company, I'm just a little tired, probably because I haven't had enough rest."
Nothing really happened at the company, except for the thing that the Liu brothers told me about yesterday.
He thought about it all day but couldn't come up with a solution.
"You must be having something on your mind. Tell me what's wrong?"
Jiang Manyue had no idea what Lu Fan was capable of; her feelings were written all over her face.
"Then, nothing?"
Looking at Jiang Manyue in front of him, Lu Fan remembered Liu Shang saying that someone had taken Jiang Group's funds.
The fact that they have been secretly supporting Gu Hai must be the work of someone in a higher position or someone close to them.
If it was Jiang Manyue in front of me who did it, how am I supposed to face her in the future?
Faced with Jiang Manyue's questioning, he decided to turn a blind eye and pretend he knew nothing.
"I know even if you don't tell me. I've heard people say you have connections with loan sharks. Is that true?"
Jiang Manyue knew that Lu Fan would definitely not tell her, so she asked Lu Fan about the news she had heard.
"How did you find out about this? You sent someone to investigate me."
Lu Fan looked at his wife, who was pregnant and rarely left the house.
Knowing that he had secretly met with Liu Shang, Lu Fan realized that his wife was really too difficult to deal with.
“I investigated you; you forgot about Twigs from Rella's Coffee Shop.”
Seeing that Lu Fan was somewhat angry, Jiang Manyue explained to him.
"Zhizhi? That's the girl you gave a bracelet to!"
After his wife mentioned it, Lu Fan remembered that he had run into Zhizhi at the coffee shop every time he went there.
I even invited her to my house for dinner the last time.
I never imagined my wife was so shrewd; a bracelet worth over ten thousand yuan was all it took to recruit an informant planted in a coffee shop.
Moreover, this informant was the person the Zhou sisters trusted most; they had installed a surveillance camera there.
Having told Jiang Manyue even about this little thing, the Zhou sisters probably don't have many secrets left from her.
"Of course, you think I would give away my favorite bracelet to a stranger for no reason?"
Seeing her husband who hadn't even reacted yet, Jiang Manyue covered her mouth and laughed as if she had succeeded in her scheme.
"Okay, my wife's trick is really brilliant!"
Lu Fan gave Jiang Manyue a thumbs up for her method, now that he had learned this trick himself.
After this incident, Lu Fan has become more cautious.
"This is also to teach you a lesson. Tell me, what did those two loan sharks want from you?"
Jiang Manyue also wanted to take this opportunity to give Lu Fan a warning.
Don't let him trust others too easily outside. Then, he asked Lu Fan about the Liu brothers.
"You mean those two people? They found me through the Zhou sisters, wanting to cooperate with me."
Listening to Jiang Manyue's words, Lu Fan also remembered this lesson, looking at Jiang Manyue who couldn't hide it from him at all.
It would be better to tell everyone everything sooner rather than later, so that Jiang Manyue can give me some advice.
"Cooperation? Aren't you making money yet? Why would you want to get involved in that shady industry?"
Upon hearing that the loan sharks wanted to cooperate with Lu Fan, Jiang Manyue asked Lu Fan seriously.
"Actually, my thought is that it's true that our company is making a lot of money right now, but there are quite a few companies that are watching us closely and want to take advantage of us. You're pregnant now, so you don't know that our subsidiaries get people coming to cause trouble every now and then. If we didn't have any connections, those people would just be released after the police questioned us. I just have a few more connections."
Lu Fan also shared his thoughts with Jiang Manyue.
Lu Fan didn't really want that little bit of money. He was already so rich, why would he need a little more?
I have an idea in my mind right now: this opportunity might bring me good results.
However, Lu Fan also discovered the risks behind it.
"I didn't expect you to agree to this."
Jiang Manyue never expected that Lu Fan's company was now being attacked by all kinds of capital.
Based on this, it seems that Lu Fan is cooperating with those who lend money and finding some shady characters to block the attacks from his competitors.
That's not bad either. Then, Jiang Manyue thought of something and asked Lu Fan.
"I'm not that stupid, why would I agree to this right away? I'll give him an answer tomorrow."
When Jiang Manyue asked Lu Fan if he had agreed to the matter, Lu Fan smiled and replied.
"Hmm, I think we can agree, but we shouldn't give the other side any leverage."
Jiang Manyue said to Lu Fan when she heard that he hadn't agreed yet.
"But there's still a problem. In exchange, I have to pay him to take over the company and kick out the old boss named Gu Hai before we can cooperate."
When Lu Fan heard his wife say she could agree, he was initially happy.
This was her own idea, but then she suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to tell Jiang Manyue the conditions that the Liu brothers had discussed with her.
So he quickly added to Jiang Manyue.
