“Your uncle,” Luo Zishen replied.
When Xiao Yichen heard that Luo Zishen’s answer matched his thoughts, he continued, “Xiao Hairong’s plan should start with the Luo Group and gradually infiltrate the Eastern Empire.”
Luo Zishen remained silent. He had the same thoughts as Xiao Yichen.
“I think that’s the case.” Luo Ziyan agreed with Xiao Yichen’s thoughts.
“How much money do you need to save the Luo Group?” Xiao Yichen suddenly asked Luo Zishen.
Luo Zishen looked at Xiao Yichen in surprise. “Yichen, this is a trap.”
Although the Luo Group was in danger, he knew this trap had been set up long ago. He also believed that Yichen and Ziyan knew it.
Not to mention the amount of funds needed for the rescue, even if the Luo Group’s crisis was resolved, no one could imagine what unexpected things would happen. Moreover, this rescue fund was not an ordinary sum of money. Once Xiao Yichen wanted to help the Luo Group, the Eastern Empire’s strength would weaken.
Xiao Yichen did not answer Luo Zishen immediately. After a long time, he said firmly, “I’m not willing to jump into Xiao Hairong’s trap, but for the sake of the Luo Group and the two of you, I’m willing.”
Zishen and Ziyan were his good brothers. Even if the Eastern Empire’s strength wavered, he was willing.
Luo Ziyan shook his head. “Yichen, I disagree. This is too risky. Let’s think of another way.”
He would never agree to let this brother take the risk. Although he was usually cheeky and occasionally joked with him, he never joked with him when it came to serious matters.
“Is there any other way?” Xiao Yichen asked. “Xiao Hairong was targeting me. You… are the ones who I implicated.”
Xiao Hairong’s goal had always been the Eastern Empire and the Xiao family. This time, he targeted the Luo Group to lure Xiao Yichen into the mess.
Luo Ziyan didn’t say anything. Everyone knew the reason and goal of the problem they were facing now.
“Yichen.” Luo Zishen suddenly called out to Xiao Yichen. “Other than you, another person can help the Luo Group.”
“Who?” Xiao Yichen asked immediately.
“Yanxi.” Luo Zishen said.
Instantly, Xiao Yichen was stunned.
Yanxi? Using her family’s political background… to help the Luo Group?
“If Yanxi comes back and asks her father for help, then the crisis in Europe… might be resolved,” Luo Zishen said.
Yanxi’s father had stayed in Europe for some time and had a vast network of contacts with the European government. If Yanxi’s father helped them solve the problem, everything would have been resolved.
Xiao Yichen thought for a long time before saying, “No need. I don’t need her help.”
To deal with Xiao Hairong, every step and every decision was dangerous. He could not let the Xu family, who was in the political world, take this risk. After all, reputation and style were too crucial to the Xu family.
Other than that, there was another reason. He didn’t want Yanxi to come back now.
He was worried that if Yanxi came back, his peaceful life with Lin Wan would be disrupted.
“I also don’t agree with Yanxi coming back either.” Luo Ziyan had the same thoughts as Xiao Yichen.
Luo Zishen knew why they disagreed and said helplessly, “But I don’t want Yichen to take this risk.”
Compared to letting Yichen take the risk, he could please Yanxi to help him.
“If we don’t try, how will we know it’s risk or wealth?” Xiao Yichen said..
