for her to breathe."Hmm..." She hummed in displeasure, uncomfortably lifting her hand to push the large stone off of her.But the stone suddenly grew hands, seizing her own and holding her fast so she...Fu Xiaoyao's eyes flickered, "Of course, I wouldn't miss such a good opportunity for my company to develop. As long as we swallow one of those companies, our company can take it to the next level. I wouldn't go against making money."

Lu Hanchuan fell silent, pursed his thin lips and didn't know what he was thinking.

Fu Xiaoyao spoke, "Hanchuan, you wouldn't think I shouldn't do this, would you After all, the Li Wang family has no grudge against me. I'm going to join forces with others to take them down. This is like..."

"No." Lu Hanchuan cut her off. "The business world is a battlefield. Swallowing up other companies and being swallowed up by them are normal things. It's just the law of the jungle, isn't it Besides, we're all businessmen. Which businessman would go against money" Lu Hanchuan said calmly.

Fu Xiaoyao smiled, "I knew you would understand me. What about you Are you going to participate in this business war"

She asked that way on purpose, but her heart was calm inside.

No matter if he agrees to join now or not, she will definitely make him join in the end.

Because her invitation has already been delivered to him, and considering the time, he should be at his company group now.

As soon as he sees the invitation, he should be able to think of the meaning behind it.

"Hold on, let me check if I received an invitation." Lu Hanchuan didn't answer Fu Xiaoyao's question directly.

Fu Xiaoyao gave a cold, inscrutable smile. "Shouldn't that be the case You are the leader of C city after all, how could the initiator of a business war possibly not extend an invitation to you."

"Not necessarily." Lu Hanchuan replied in three words.

Fu Xiaoyao feigned confusion, "Why not"

Lu Hanchuan didn't answer.

Why

Of course the initiator of this business war has a grudge against him.

He just wasn't going to say that, it was a grudge he had with Xiao Bao's mother, there was no need for her to know about it.

Never mind, Lu Hanchuan waved his hand to signal Qiao Mu to call the group and inquire about the invitation letter.

Joe nodded and took out his phone to make a call.

Two minutes later, Qiao Mu hung up the phone and nodded.

Lu Hanchuan narrowed his eyes.

Xiao Bao's mom actually sent him an invitation!

What on earth does she want to do

Lu Hanchuan furrowed his brows, lost in thought.

After a while, he figured out the reason.

Xiaobao's mother invited him despite having a grudge against him, not only to use him but also to see his attitude, to know which side he would choose.

If he chooses not to join the Business Warfare Alliance when he sees the invitation, or if he directly helps Li Wang's several families, then it means he has chosen to fight against Xiao Bao's mother. In that case, Xiao Bao's mother would also have a reason to use the power of the Business Warfare Alliance to deal with the Lu family.

And if he chooses to join and help fight against the Li Wang families, that would be him showing good faith to Xiao Bao's mother. After all, the biggest reason for this business war is his daughter Lu Su Su. As a father, shouldn't he show goodwill to the victim's family

But the outside world doesn't know, they only know that Li Wang and a few families angered the initiator of the commercial war, but they don't know why.

So once he joins this business war, it looks very ambiguous from the outside. Some people feel that the Lu Group is already the leading group in City C, with a certain status both domestically and internationally, but they still come to devour small businesses. This clearly shows that they are greedy and have an ugly appetite.

And some people think that the Lu Group's participation is definitely related to the initiator of the commercial war. After all, a leading group like this humbling itself to join such a battlefield can be said to be actively pleasing the initiator of the commercial war. Then the dignity of the Lu Group will be questioned by others.

In their eyes, as long as they are leading companies, they should all have their own pride and be flattered by others instead of taking the initiative to flatter others. Otherwise, they would think that the so-called leading companies are nothing special.

In essence, this is a matter of dignity and face.

Thinking about this, Lu Hannan felt a deep exhaustion in his heart.

"Really amazing..." he murmured.

After six years, he finally met a decent opponent.

To be honest, Xiao Bao's mom's invitation letter really put him in a difficult position.

Not participating deepens hatred.

If Lu participates, he'll lose face again.

In short, neither choice is good for him, but he has to choose one.

This little treasure's mother really outwitted him.

"Hanchuan, have you received the invitation" Over the phone, Fu Xiaoyao saw that a few minutes had passed and took the initiative to ask.

Lu Hanchuan gathered his thoughts and replied wearily, "Received."

"See, I told you you would have it. So will you join"

Lu Hanchuan's eyes flashed, "I'll participate!"

If he has to choose, then he might as well join.

Although the Lu Group's reputation has suffered some damage, doing this will appease Xiao Bao's mother.

Maybe, he would have the chance to meet her someday.

After seeing her face, he would definitely want to know what grudge they had in the past, and about Xiao Bao, he really wanted to meet him.

"You really agreed." On the phone, Fu Xiaoyao exclaimed in surprise, but her face remained expressionless.

Lu Hanchuan hummed softly, “I have to agree.”

Fu Xiaoyao pretended not to hear the helplessness in his words, and smiled, "Then okay, the invitation said that those willing to participate in the Business War Alliance will meet at the Universe Hotel at 3 pm this afternoon to discuss the details. You must come, oh, I'll be waiting for you."

"Okay." Lü Hánchuan replied.

Then, Fu Xiaoyao curled her lip coldly, "I'll hang up now, goodbye."

"Hmm." Lu Hanchuan nodded.

After the call ended, Qiao Mu walked back and said, "Lu Zong, are you really going to participate"

"What else" Lu Hanchuan glanced at him, then laid out his thoughts.

Qiao Mu heard this and became a little indignant, "That Xiaobao's mother is clearly trying to trip you up. She's making it so that you can't participate or not participate. Even if you did go to appease her anger a little, it doesn't mean she won't hold a grudge against you. After all, this business war was targeting Li Wang's family, and she will definitely take revenge on you later."

"I know." Lu Hanchuan replied softly, lowering his eyes.

Xiao Bao's mother this time only took revenge on a few of Li Wang's families, not him. That's because he was harder to take revenge on than Li Wang's families.

Once the Li family's matters are settled, she will come for him. After all, Lu Susu is the culprit, and he is Lu Susu's nominal father.

Moreover, besides these two new grudges, there are also old scores to settle.

He just doesn't know what the old grudge is yet.

Thinking about this, Lu Hanchuan rubbed his aching temples, "Okay, let's get in the car."

"Yes." Qiao Mu replied.

Lu Hanchuan strode towards the car, and when he reached the front of it, he opened the door and got in.

Joe then went up.

Lu Hanchuan took off his coat and tossed it aside casually. As a result, a piece of paper rolled out of his suit pocket and landed at his feet.

Lu Hanchuan gave a doubtful hum and bent down to pick up the paper ball. Upon opening it, he remembered.

This is Xiaobao's medical report. When he saw it, Shao Si Nian talked to him a lot. Because of his intense emotions, he crumpled the report into a ball and put it in his pocket when he left. If it hadn't fallen out now, he would have forgotten about it.

"Just throw this away." Lu Hanchuan passed the crumpled paper to Qiao Mu in the driver's seat.

Joe took it, "What is this" him if he was okay.However, this wait lasted until evening.When Lu Hanchuan returned, his face was not looking good, rather gloomy and sullen.He walked up to Fu Xiaoyao, who was watching television,...
