"No, I was just asking."
Luo Chen felt somewhat helpless. Judging from Zhao Meng'er's tone, it seemed that what he had said earlier was just a waste of breath.
"Is that really true..."
Zhao Meng'er was clearly somewhat incredulous; how could Luo Chen possibly admit to such a situation?
"Don't you believe me?"
"Although I asked that question, I just wanted to know if the Fang family could cause you any trouble. You are a business queen, after all. Do you think I don't trust your abilities?"
"That's true."
Zhao Meng'er liked hearing this.
"But it's alright, I don't think it's any trouble... In fact, I'd prefer that he causes me trouble."
Zhao Meng'er leaned back lazily in her office chair, completely unconcerned about the foreign investment Fang's family was currently accepting and its expanding scale.
It may look fierce, but it poses no threat at all.
If Fang Xue were still in the Fang family, Zhao Meng'er might still have a serious attitude, but given the current state of the Fang family...
Zhao Meng'er didn't take the other person seriously at all.
Given the Fang family's limited vision and the disunity of their board of directors, even if they were given more resources, it would ultimately be a waste.
[...]
After a brief end to the call, Luo Chen learned the general situation from Zhao Meng'er.
In summary, despite all the support Sang Yi has given to the Fang family behind the scenes, it hasn't had much effect; so far, all they've done is indulge in extravagant expansion.
The Luo, Han, and Ling families suffered no losses whatsoever.
To be clear, those losses were deliberately ceded to the Fang family by Zhao Meng'er and her group.
Anyway, it's not very useful, but it can still make money, and Fang's family can also get some benefits.
Why shouldn't there be more of this?
From beginning to end, everything Fang did was still under control.
Having received this information, Luo Chen stopped paying attention to those matters.
[...]
"I've decided that we should go back to Ningcheng first."
Luo Chen suddenly made this decision to stay in Yan Province for one more day.
Both Tiger Soul and Raphael were stunned upon hearing this.
"Young Master, are we still going back to Ningcheng now?"
"But Ningcheng isn't like that..."
Tiger Soul was somewhat confused, as Luo Chen had already told them both about the situation in Ning City.
There's not much of a problem with what's happening over there now, in fact, there isn't a problem at all. Luo Chen said he wanted to go back, but Hu Po felt it wasn't really necessary.
Hu Po believes that staying here to continue dealing with the situation is more important than what's happening in Ningcheng.
Of course, if Luo Chen goes back for other reasons, Hu Po won't have any objections.
Raphael chimed in, "Boss, isn't the matter in Ningcheng being handled by the boss's wife and Vice President Fang? Plus, President Han is helping out. Surely, they can't resolve it?"
Raphael didn't doubt their abilities; they had all spent some time together, and Raphael knew very well what kind of people Zhao Meng'er and the other girls were like.
Although the Fang family appears to be aggressive now, they are actually still under control.
It's not yet time for Luo Chen to return and take charge of the overall situation.
Luo Chen simply smiled at their lack of understanding: "Of course we have to go back. If we don't go back, staying here will only be a waste of time."
What's the meaning?
Neither of them understood.
Luo Chen wanted to go back mainly because of Sang Yi.
As the strategist and cunning schemer of Ye Feng, the protagonist in the later part of the book, Luo Chen cares a great deal about Sang Yi.
Sang Yi did so many things, yet his true purpose remained a mystery; he seemed to be waiting for something.
They could have revealed some of their cards, but they chose not to.
Luo Chen naturally found it a bit strange.
The reason for staying an extra day in Yan Province was to see if we could wait, but Sang Yi was very patient.
Upon further reflection, and considering the communication with the system...
Luo Chen then realized that the main reason Sang Yi was able to remain calm was because of him.
Although it was just a guess, Luo Chen still wanted to give it a try.
If Luo Chen were to actually reveal Sang Yi's trump card, he would suffer no loss; on the contrary, he could use this opportunity to thwart the other party's plans ahead of time.
[...]
After giving them a brief explanation, they understood Luo Chen's meaning and stopped questioning him. They followed Luo Chen's instructions, quickly packed their luggage, and waited to meet up with Lu Ze.
Tiger Soul thought that Luo Chen would 'keep a low profile' and take a private helicopter back this time, but he was wrong again.
Two cars were arranged, and Luo Chen and the others left Yan Province in the cars.
The planned route wasn't just pretending to go back; it was a real trip back.
Having already considered this possibility, they naturally wondered whether Sang Yi might have secretly sent people to monitor them.
If it is discovered that they have not actually left Yan Province, then doing this will be completely pointless.
In addition, given Lu Ze and his mother's situation, it is indeed necessary for them to return to Ningcheng.
As expected.
The moment Luo Chen returned to Ningcheng, he realized that someone was watching him.
Not only him, but even Hu Po, who was about to step into the threshold of the Transcendent Realm, noticed it.
"Young master, someone is watching us."
Tiger Soul kept his eyes on the road ahead, gripping the steering wheel firmly. Through his previous sensitivity, he already knew where the other party was.
"Don't rush, let them follow first. Take Uncle Lu and his mother to Ningcheng Hospital first, and then we'll deal with it."
"Yes, young master."
Tiger Soul didn't ask any more questions and focused on driving.
The black sedan following behind was unaware that it had been spotted.
They continued to leisurely monitor from a distance.
The man in the back seat casually lit a cigarette and said with a smile, "I thought this would be difficult, but it turned out to be so easy."
"We've been following them all this way, and they still haven't noticed."
Judging from Zhu Tian's tone earlier, it seemed that this surveillance would be very difficult, and he told them to be careful and not to be discovered.
At first, the two of them were quite apprehensive, thinking that this mission would not be easy.
But after following them all the way, it seemed quite simple; the things Zhu Tian mentioned had not yet happened.
"I think so too. Mr. Zhu said that the bodyguard next to that rich young master is not simple, but I think he's just so-so."
The driver couldn't help but say something.
"That's right. None of us are professionals, so we can't detect it. If we had more professional people to monitor him, this rich young master probably wouldn't even know that his every move is being watched."
Amidst laughter and conversation, the two people in charge of monitoring felt that there were no problems with the mission.
In such an overly simplistic situation, they've already started considering whether they should ask Zhu Tian for more money after this matter is over, just to avoid betraying their professionalism.
