"Try your best?" Fu Chen sneered. "The stock price has only dropped so much, and the market share hasn't seen any significant decline since the last drop. Is this the fatal blow you mentioned?"
"Ah Chen, calm down." Xu Zhiru stood up from the sofa. "Ah Zhao is also trying to help you."
Fu Chen turned and looked out the window: "Zhi Ru, you go out first."
Xu Zhiru bit her lip and finally left the office.
"Xu Zhao, you'd better give me an explanation." Fu Chen's voice was as cold as ice.
"Explain?" Xu Zhao sneered, "Do you think Ning Nanxue is so easy to deal with? She has Jiang Tingchen by her side and Louis's support behind her. No matter how powerful Qingyun Technology is, it is impossible to shake the Fu family in such a short time."
"So your plan is to let Qingyun Technology waste my resources?"
"Planning takes time." Xu Zhao walked over to Fu Chen. "Do you think Ning Nanxue will just sit there and wait for death? She has already made preparations."
Fu Chen was about to explode when his computer suddenly beeped and an email popped up.
"It's Martin." Xu Zhao glanced at him.
Fu Chen opened the email and quickly scanned its contents. It was short, consisting of only a few sentences: "Qingyun Technology's actions no longer need to continue. I have a better plan. The time is not right, so keep it confidential for now."
"What does he mean?" Fu Chen frowned.
"Martin always does things at his own pace," Xu Zhao said. "Since he said he has a better plan, let's wait and see."
"Wait and see?" Fu Chen sneered, "I can wait, but the Fu family can't."
"Ah Chen, you're too impatient." Xu Zhao shook his head. "Business is like a battlefield. Sometimes taking a step back can lead to two steps forward."
Fu Chen was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Xu Zhao, what are you planning?"
"Me?" Xu Zhao chuckled. "I'm just helping you take back the Fu family. As for the rest, you don't need to know."
"You'd better not play any tricks." Fu Chen warned.
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in the Fu family." Xu Zhao turned and walked towards the door. "I only care about my sister's happiness."
Fu Chen looked at Xu Zhao's back, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes. He picked up his phone and dialed Martin's number.
"Mr. Fu." Martin's voice was a little lazy.
"What's your plan?" Fu Chen went straight to the point.
"Be patient, Mr. Fu." Martin chuckled. "Some things are not good to know too early."
"I need a timeline."
"Soon," Martin said, "you'll understand why I said Qingyun Technology's actions were a waste of time."
After hanging up the phone, Fu Chen stood in front of the window, looking at the Fu Building in the distance. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the glass curtain wall, reflecting a dazzling light.
"Ning Nanxue, Jiang Tingchen..." He muttered to himself, "Do you think you can save the Fu family like this?"
The office door was gently pushed open and Xu Zhiru walked in with coffee.
"Ah Chen, have some coffee." She put the coffee on the table, "Don't be too tired."
Fu Chen turned around and looked at Xu Zhiru's slightly haggard face, and a sense of guilt suddenly surged in his heart.
"Zhiru, go back and rest first."
"I'm fine." Xu Zhiru shook her head. "I want to stay with you."
Fu Chen was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "I'm sorry."
Xu Zhiru was stunned for a moment, then smiled gently: "Silly boy, why are you saying sorry?"
Fu Chen reached out and pulled her into his arms, his chin gently rubbing the top of her head. Xu Zhiru leaned on his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, a complicated look flashing in her eyes.
"Sister, you go out first." After a long silence, Xu Zhao suddenly spoke and looked at the computer screen carefully.
Xu Zhiru looked at Fu Chen, who nodded slightly, and she had to leave.
"What's the matter?" Fu Chen adjusted his tie.
"There's new activity at Qingyun Technology." Xu Zhao walked to the desk. "They're planning to hack into Fu's system."
Fu Chen raised his eyebrows: "Hacker?"
"Yes, they intend to steal core technology data." Xu Zhao sneered, "Although the risk is high, the effect will be very good."
"Are you sure this will work?"
"No matter how powerful Ning Nanxue is, she can't defend against this kind of tactics." Xu Zhao was confident. "Once they get the information, they can accuse the Fu family of plagiarism."
Fu Chen was silent for a moment: "If we are discovered..."
"No," Xu Zhao interrupted him. "Qingyun Technology's technical team is very professional. Even if it's discovered, only a partial data leak will occur."
"You are quite sure."
"Ah Chen, the business world is like a battlefield," Xu Zhao said meaningfully, "sometimes, you have to resort to extraordinary measures."
Fu Chen walked to the window and looked at the Fu Building in the distance: "Then let them try."
The next day, Fu Group’s Technology Department.
"Boss Ning, this is bad!" The technical director rushed into Ning Nanxue's office. "The system has been hacked!"
Jiang Tingchen immediately stood up: "What's going on?"
"Someone tried to steal core technical information." The technical director's forehead was sweating. "Although we discovered it in time, some data was still leaked."
Ning Nanxue's face darkened: "Can you find out who did it?"
"The initial assessment is Qingyun Technology," the technical director said. "They've been targeting us recently."
Jiang Tingchen walked over to Ning Nanxue and said, "Xue'er, don't be anxious. Let's take a look at the damage first."
"Boss Ning, what's even worse is..." The technical director hesitated, "They've already started spreading rumors within the industry, saying our technology is suspected of plagiarism."
"Shameless!" Ning Nanxue slammed the table. "They stole our technology, and now they dare to turn the tables on us!"
"There's a lot of pressure from public opinion right now." Jiang Tingchen frowned. "Many partners are asking about this."
Ning Nanxue rushed to the technical department without stopping, his face looking extremely solemn.
At the same time, Xu Zhiru's life was completely different.
In the villa, Xu Zhiru leaned back on the leather sofa, her legs crossed, admiring her newly-painted manicure. The housekeeper brought her an exquisite afternoon tea and waited respectfully beside her.
"Leave it there." Xu Zhiru waved her hand nonchalantly.
When the doorbell rang, Xu Zhiru immediately jumped up from the sofa, hurriedly tidied her hair, and transformed herself into a gentle and virtuous person.
"A Chen, you're back." She walked forward and took Fu Chen's briefcase with a sweet tone.
Fu Chen nodded, untied his tie casually, and sat down on the sofa tiredly.
"Ah Chen, you've been too tired lately." Xu Zhiru handed over a glass of warm water and said softly, "How about we take a few days off? How about going on a trip?"
Fu Chen shook his head: "The company is in a special situation now, I can't leave."
Xu Zhiru sat down next to him and asked tentatively, "So how are the preparations for our wedding going?"
"Wedding?" Fu Chen frowned. "The company is facing a crisis right now, so let's put the wedding aside for now."
"But it's been delayed for so long..." Xu Zhiru said with grievance, "Are you going to wait until the company is completely stable before considering our affairs?"
