After the press conference, Lu Feng felt he had boasted about everything he had ever done. As soon as the event ended, Lu Feng immediately instructed Zhu Lidong to push inventory onto distributors, aiming to deliver explosive results to the market in a very short time.
Workers work in three shifts inside the factory, and the assembly line never stops. What was once a desolate wilderness has now become a bustling place with heavy traffic. Various trucks often line up on the road at the entrance of the industrial park.
The media's relentless promotion made everyone in the neighborhood know about Giti mobile phones. Everything was going very well when Lu Feng suddenly received a phone call.
"I've arrived in Hong Kong. I didn't expect you to still go back to the mainland to make mobile phones. The company is doing well and is profitable across the board. United Securities is also doing well. After all, you have connections in the mainland and managed to bring so many big companies to list in Hong Kong. As for me, I've been back for a few days now. I checked United Securities' accounts and also called the head office to ask about it."
"I'm very satisfied with the company's development. By the way, I heard about your mistress, right? Mr. Zhang, she's in Hong Kong recently. I'll talk to her tonight. You've been making quite a splash in the media lately, haven't you? If you're not coming to Hong Kong tomorrow, I'll help you get some publicity there too!"
Lu Feng frowned upon hearing this and said in a deep voice, "Are you threatening me? Let me tell you, the more you do this, the less you'll get. Stop dreaming."
"Let's give it a try!" Su Yourong smiled and then hung up the phone.
In the evening, she handed her child over to the childcare worker, then sorted through her documents and, after confirming that everything she brought was a photocopy, she called Zhang Fengxia.
"Who is this?" Zhang Fengxia asked as she answered the phone.
"Mr. Zhang, I don't know if you know me or not. My name is Su Yourong. Are you at Mr. Lu's villa right now? I'll come over and we can talk in person," Su Yourong said, getting straight to the point.
“What is there for us to talk about?” Zhang Fengxia frowned and said, “If you have something to say, you can go to Lu Feng. We don’t know each other.”
“But you’re part of this family now. Don’t worry, I’m not going there to throw a tantrum. I’m going to show you some things. We’re all adults now, and everything should be based on reality.” Su Yourong said calmly, “Things always need to be resolved. Just because you leave them aside doesn’t mean nothing will happen. I’ve come to you to solve the problem.”
Listening to these words, Zhang Fengxia felt that this person was still reasonable. If she could persuade her to leave, that would be the best outcome, so she agreed.
Around 7 p.m., Su Yourong's car drove into the villa gate. She stepped into the living room and looked Zhang Fengxia up and down for a while. In terms of appearance and temperament, Zhang Fengxia was indeed good, but in terms of presence, she was far inferior.
Zhang Fengxia was also sizing her up. At 1.7 meters tall, with high heels, she looked exceptionally tall and slender. She wore a black dress underneath a woolen trench coat, and a retro hat on her head. Even a top model standing next to her probably wouldn't stand out much.
“It’s a little chilly in the living room, let’s go to the sitting room.” Zhang Fengxia stood up, feeling that she was a head shorter than her, and said, “It’s not appropriate to wear high heels at home, let’s change into slippers.”
“I’m familiar with this house. The floor is made of whole pieces of marble that were air-freighted from England, so it’s not that fragile!” Su Yourong said, then walked towards the living room.
Zhang Fengxia was slightly annoyed, but she didn't say anything and followed them inside. As soon as they sat down, Zhang Fengxia asked, "Tell me, what do you want? Let's be honest with each other. After all this trouble, what do you ultimately want?"
"You think I want money?" Su Yourong stared at Zhang Fengxia and said, "Aren't you the same?"
"I am different, I am love!"
“You are love? Then I can be love. Tell me, which of our loves is noble? Which is base?” Su Yourong stared at her and said, “I think we are equal. Even if Jiang Xiaoyan were sitting here, I would never be inferior to her in terms of morality. So you don’t need to feel superior to me in terms of morality.”
"Hehe!" Zhang Fengxia laughed twice and said, "I haven't been in Hong Kong for long, but I've heard of your reputation for beauty. In the financial industry, you're quite outstanding. You don't need to act like a virtuous woman in front of me."
"You know as much about business as I do, don't you? To market and promote your company, you need to constantly network. Besides, being good-looking and getting close to some big shots in the industry inevitably leads to gossip. If the media stirs things up and says I'm a promiscuous person, then I think if you were a beautiful woman in front of the public, you wouldn't be any better."
"If you don't believe me, we can do an experiment. You can try managing United Securities for a year or two. Besides, with talented young people like Lu Feng around me, why would I need to settle down with some old men in their seventies or eighties?"
"You two have misunderstood me, and these misunderstandings all come from the mass media. I can understand that. Lu Feng knows what kind of person I am!"
“But he doesn’t welcome you either!” Zhang Fengxia retorted.
"He doesn't welcome me only to appease you two. You should think carefully about how you two would react if he agreed to let me into the family. I always thought you were a smart person, but now it seems you're not so smart after all. This is just a temporary measure. Do you think he can get over this son? Even if Lu Feng doesn't care about this son at thirty, what about at forty? At fifty?"
Su Yourong smiled slightly, leaned back in her chair and said with a hint of disdain, "What will it be like when the two of you can no longer control him, when you threaten to leave and he becomes indifferent? The matter between us cannot be simply considered from the perspective of emotions, nor can it be understood from a personal point of view or wishful thinking. A family must have affection, but it also needs mutual checks and balances!"
