“Thank you.”
In the end, there was only this father-and-son pair in the big meeting room.
Both of them looked at each other. The smell of gunpowder seemed to fill the air.
Lu Zhanbei curved his lips and smiled. However, his eyebrows weren’t gloomy.
“Old man, you do have some capabilities. You could actually reach into my corporation and know the passcode to my data room. You could also obtain my fingerprint. This means that the traitor is from the management level. How long has he been in ambush?”
“The day the Global Corporation started to do its first public recruitment.”
Clap, clap, clap.
Lu Zhanbei clapped and his lips curved into a sarcastic arc. “It has been so many years, but your strong desire to take control of everything still disgusts me.”
Lu Zhengyu’s face sank. “I don’t want to talk nonsense with you. The real proposal is in my hands. As long as you’re willing to take a step back and keep your relationship with Lin Wanwan a secret, I’m willing to return it to you. If not… you know the consequences!’
Of course, Lu Zhanbei knew.
The price to pay for offending the country was something an ordinary person wouldn’t be able to think of.
Lu Zhengyu drank a sip of water to soothe his throat. He didn’t look smug. He said sincerely, “Zhanbei, you founded the Global Corporation all by yourself. It’s a pity to ruin it. Once this matter is exposed, you will definitely be infamous. To be ridiculed by millions of people just for a woman. Is it worth it? I know I didn’t do this very authentically, but you’re right. I’m indeed selfish. As long as you’re willing to take a step back, I’m willing to hand the entire Lu family to you as compensation.”
Lu Zhengyu said this not out of guilt. He was very clear about Lu Zhanbei’s temper. If he made this unfilial son anxious, it would definitely be a life-and-death struggle.
Anyway, he was about to reach retirement age. Lu Zhanbei was an excellent heir. He was indeed relieved.
Lu Zhanbei still remained silent. The finger that was holding his forehead tapped on his temples lightly. This careless gesture didn’t carry with it the slightest anxiety. It was as if the person in trouble wasn’t him.
“You haven’t finished considering it?” Lu Zhengyu had waited for a while but Lu Zhanbei didn’t say anything.
“Soon.”
Hearing such an answer, Lu Zhengyu burst into joy.
Even if the plan succeeded, he didn’t have much confidence in his heart. After all, this son of his was definitely not a soft person who was willing to take a step back.
However, he actually didn’t reject him directly now. This meant that there was a show to watch!
Lu Zhengyu heaved a sigh of relief and continued to wait.
It was another five minutes.
“You’re still not done considering?”
“Soon.”
Lu Zhengyu continued to wait patiently. However, another five minutes passed and Lu Zhanbei’s reply was still that one word.
Finally, Lu Zhengyu ran out of patience.
“Lu Zhanbei, are you playing me? Is it so hard for you to make a decision?”
Lu Zhanbei laughed lightly. “You guessed correctly. I am playing you.”
Crash—
Lu Zhengyu’s face turned green, and he smashed the cup in his hands. “Since you asked for it, I have nothing much to say. I do want to see if you will still be so tough after you have nothing left!”
After saying this, he strode in the direction of the door.
However, without waiting for him to pull open the door, Gu Mo and the Lu family’s butler had already pushed open the door and opened their mouths at the same time.
“Old Master, I have something to report to you!”
“Sir, something happened!”
Lu Zhanbei looked at the two of them and his expression was still casual.
Lu Zhengyu was slightly shocked. “What happened?”
The butler glanced at Lu Zhanbei from the corner of his eye and said, “Ten minutes ago, the factory base near Baihua forest in the western suburbs… suddenly exploded. Now, it’s a piece of wasteland. The bodyguard in charge of guarding the base caught the culprit who threw a bomb. It’s… someone from the Lu family.”
Lu Zhengyu’s face changed drastically!
