Mrs. Lu gave her a cold look. "Did I say anything wrong? In the beginning, you and your son had tried every means possible to take away the Lu Group from my son. What did you say at that time? Whatever my son can accomplish, your son can do so even better? Eldest sister-in-law, doesn't it hurt your pride to say what you said earlier?"

The First Madam furrowed her eyebrows and her eyes blazed with rage as her chest heaved up and down. She originally planned to argue with Mrs. Lu, but at the thought of how her son had to rely on Zi Yi for treatment in the future, she could only endure all her anger.

Mrs. Lu was surprised at the First Madam's reaction.

The First Madam was very competitive and she could not bear to suffer any injustice in the slightest. However, she had actually swallowed her words.

But even so, she had to make some things clear. "Big Brother, don't always rely on our Jingye to do something. Other than him contacting us, we are unable to contact him at all… What's more, you also know the situation these days. If our phone call was to be monitored, you also know how serious the consequences would be."

After she said her piece, she looked at how ugly the Eldest Master Lu's expression became, and yet, he was unable to refute her. She felt an inexplicable refreshing feeling deep down inside.

In particular, Third Master Lu even said, "If we are unable to keep our overseas businesses, then so be it."

The Third Master Lu who was a full-on military person did not have much concept of money at all. "Our family has enough money to spend. What's the use of earning so much money? What's more, it's impossible for everyone to be good at business and if we don't have the ability, don't take on what you can't manage, or else in the end, we will end up with nothing."

His words seemed as if he was complaining about his eldest brother's family.

Eldest Master Lu and the First Madam were extremely furious deep down, but they could not find anything to say to refute his words.

Everyone fell into silence once again.

Bermuda Triangle.

The Bermuda Triangle had also been rather lively these past few days.

Originally, several local big shots had fought behind the scenes to fight for business, but suddenly there came along a God of Wealth. Everyone had come up with all sorts of ideas in order to get the God of Wealth to remain.

The God of Wealth in question was Rick.

Rick had been staying there all this time and his motive was to wait for Lu Jingye to make his way to Em Country.

When he heard the news of Lu Jingye's car accident, he did not believe it at all. He said to one of the big shots named Raptor, "It's impossible that he's dead. He's someone who would think ten steps ahead before he takes a single step. He must have guessed something would happen to him when something happened to the Lu Family. He should have also anticipated the car accident that night and made plans in advance.

"Also, you shouldn't underestimate that woman next to him. She's someone who is knowledgeable in multiple fields and she would not let Lu Jingye sit in a car that would crash from a slight bump."

Raptor was surprised. "If that's the case, why did he look on helplessly as the Lu Group got swallowed up?"

"It hasn't been swallowed up yet though, has it?" Rick motioned for the bodyguard standing behind him to pour alcohol for him.

After the alcohol was poured for him, he lifted the cup and took a sip before he continued talking, "If my guess is right, the mysterious force will launch a full-on attack on the Lu Group tonight and many people will join in the fight. When the time comes, as long as someone manages to resist that mysterious force, it would definitely mean that Lu Jingye has taken action."

"What about you? Do you not intend to take action?" Raptor did not believe that Rick was not eyeing those subsidiaries under the Lu Group.

"I… Of course, I will take action." Speaking of this, Rick suddenly laughed. His laughter was extremely sly. "I'll wait for Lu Jingye to take action and when he's dealing with that mysterious force, I'll take over that Jewelry company from his hands."

Raptor gave Rick a thumbs-up and said, "Mr. Rick deserves to be the President of UP Group. Your way of doing things will certainly cause Lu Jingye to be unprepared and be unable to retaliate."

"Ha!" Rick swirled the cup in his hands and his eyes were shining with a cold glint. "If I'm right, that mysterious force is the higher-ups of a certain country. How can he as an individual, possibly fight against and compete with a country? What's more… he doesn't have much funds now at all."

"Yes, that's right… Even if Lu Jingye is alive and no matter how capable he is in business, he doesn't have funds in his hand. If he wishes to win this economic war, he is nothing if he's without money."

Speaking of this, both of them laughed at the same time.

"Hahahaha…"

After they had their fill of laughing, Rick suddenly asked, "Where are those two from the capital?"

Raptor thought for a moment and said, "They are at Tian Ba's place. I heard that they wanted to earn money from Tian Ba and were directly detained at his place."

A glint flashed past Rick's eyes and he signaled for Raptor to come closer.

After Raptor came closer, Rick said to him, "Find a way to get these two people here. They are from the capital's eight aristocratic families, the He Family, and the Ouyang Family. If these two people are used well, it'll be very easy for us to make our way into the capital in the future."

Raptor returned to his seat with a smile and immediately called for one of his men. "Head over to Tian Ba's place and ask for those two individuals. If he refuses to hand them over, tell him this…"

Everyone was gearing up for the fight as they thought of showing their hands and fishing in troubled waters tonight.

10 p.m imperial time.

It was the time when young people went out to have fun at the capital's nightlife.

However, in the invisible financial circle, strings of numbers that numerous people could not hope to accumulate in their lifetimes had been floating around in the virtual world or had either evaporated.

The top management of all the corporations worldwide were all stationed in the conference room with a computer in front of them. Their fingers were all on the keyboard as they typed at a fast speed, for fear that someone else would take the lead if they were just a second too slow.

11 p.m imperial time.

Inside the highest floor of the Lu Group's headquarters.

For the first time ever, the three brothers of the Lu Family were all present together. The Lu Group's executives were all already under great pressure these days, and under the cold gazes of the Lu Family brothers, they felt an even greater immense amount of pressure.

Coupled with the fact that the Lu Group was getting attacked by the outside world, many of them broke out into cold sweats.

In particular, Eldest Master Lu commanded them. "These subsidiaries must be kept!"

He then listed several subsidiaries from different industries.

These were the most profitable subsidiaries of the Lu Group, and it was also what other people wanted to swallow.

The group of executives rapidly typed on their keyboards as their brains worked at high speeds.

Finally, someone could not take the pressure anymore and closed his eyes. His body leaned to one side and he fell down.

"Quick, send him to the medical room."

Second Master Lu quickly called for the bodyguards to carry him away.

After the man was carried away, Second Master Lu furrowed his brow and said to Eldest Master Lu, "Big Brother, we can't continue like this. Their bodies won't be able to withstand this."

Eldest Master Lu looked grim and a few seconds later, he said to a bodyguard behind him, "Let the doctor prepare glucose and oxygen tanks. Everyone must guard the Lu Group tonight!"

The headquarters of the Lu Group had a specialized clinic that occupied an entire floor. The doctors on shift there were all famous and the medical equipment was also top class. Be it in personnel or equipment, the clinic was equivalent to a big hospital.

Soon, a group of doctors and nurses arrived. The nurses had started inserting the glucose packs for everyone in a skilled manner.

A few minutes later, the group of executives finally felt better.

At 12 a.m.

Someone spoke up in an anxious voice. "Not good! There's a powerful force that is currently purchasing the Lu Group's overseas shares at an extremely fast speed. We are unable to stop them anymore."
