ort while, Secretary Liu brought the doctor over.Meeting each other always carries a certain awkwardness, it was Ms. Liu who spoke first: "Thanks to you! He needs to take good care of his body, but he...After Zhang Chongguang finished speaking, he gently hung up the phone.

He leaned back in his chair, then couldn't help but lightly touch his lips for a moment.

There, the scent of Hoshi still lingered.

He missed her so much, desperately. It had been too long, far too long since he had this person in his life. He couldn't wait any longer.

Zhang Chongguang knew he was ill.

He himself felt that something was wrong with him.

But he didn't want to get better.

He also knew that as long as Huo Xi returned to his side, he would be cured.

……

The car door was knocked a few times.

Zhang Chongguang turned his head to look, and then his gaze fixed.

Outside stood a man in his fifties, dressed in rags and with a dark complexion. However, Zhang Chongguang still recognized him at once.

He is his father.

Zhang Chongguang's father licked his face, looking into the car. Zhang Chongguang met his gaze for a moment and rolled down the window.

Two men related by blood met each other's gaze.

One noble, one downfallen.

After a long while, a smile spread across Zhang's father's face: "I saw you from afar! You are truly brilliant."

Zhang Chongguang said nothing.

He stared intently at the man before him.

In his memory, his father was a small- to medium-sized business owner. He always looked respectable and liked to frequent entertainment venues. Later, he betrayed his mother for a woman, driving her to jump from a building.

He once hated him.

Up until now, I still resent him. He never thought about saying goodbye, nor did he ever think about seeing this man again. To see him in such a state of ruin is disheartening.

It's probably just karma!

Zhang Chongguang's gaze made Zhang Fu very uncomfortable. It was too strange, not like his son at all.

He mustered his courage and said, "If I hadn't been willing to give you away back then, where would you be today Chongguang, I heard you've made a fortune and are running amok in City B. Even Mr. Huo has to show you respect!"

He just didn't have the guts to speak his mind.

Just let this son figure it out on his own. He's smart, he should know to pay himself back.

Zhang Chongguang took out his wallet.

Besides the cards, there's also a wad of cash, about 3,000 yuan.

He took out the money and gave it to Zhang's father.

Zhang's father nodded and smiled: "Chongguang, you got it wrong! I raised you for a while, would just this amount of money be enough to dismiss me"

Zhang Chongguang sneered: "If you don't want it, you can give it back to me!"

The man quickly tucked the money into his pocket and then left.

Zhang Chongguang watched the person's back for a long time, then lit a cigarette.

……

The next day, news spread throughout the financial circles of city B.

Si Jia signed a memorandum of understanding with Rongchuang, securing an investment of 800 billion yuan. Si Jia has regained its footing and is now aggressively pushing forward, catching Lu Shu completely off guard.

Lu Shu is so busy at the company that he's running around like crazy.

Those old geezers in C city, sending their regards to him and his father!

As work was about to end, Lu Shu dialed a call to Zhang Chongguang.

The phone rang a few times before Zhang Chongguang answered it.

Lu Shuo cut to the chase: "Are you really sure about this Zhang Chongguang, you should know you've made a grave mistake! Even if I swallow my pride, do you think Huo Yunshi will stand for it You can take action against me today, and tomorrow you could target the Huo family. Yunshi may be quiet on the surface, but his methods are far more ruthless than mine!"

He suddenly laughed twice: "Dogs that bite don't bark, do you really think he has a good temper"

Zhang Chongguang, of course, knew that.

He sneered: "Lu Shuo, just 800 billion yuan has trapped you How... are you already calling for help"

"Get out of here!"

Lu Shu laughed coldly, even more so: “I’m afraid you’ll burn yourself to ashes!”

He hung up the phone.

Although he was clearly angry, he opened his phone and found a picture.

This is a photo of him with Zhang Chongguang when he was 16 years old.

Back then, they were still good.

Lu Shu brought his mind home, and as soon as he went back, he saw Lu Xun cooking. He put down his briefcase and took the things from her hands: "How can you still move around when you're pregnant!"

Lu Xuncai was pregnant, but her belly was still flat.

But she was even cuter in her comfy overalls.

Lu Shu smiled.

He cooks with such focus, making dishes that are both light and nutritious. Lu Xun feels happy.

She knew he was worried about work, so she put her arm around him and whispered, "Do you think Zhang Chongguang is working with Si Anran"

Lu Shuoting gently stroked her little head.

He suddenly said, "Zhang Chongguang's real target isn't me! In the end, he won't give the funds to the Si family."

Lu Xun didn't understand.

Lu Shu didn't make it clear, he had too many things on his mind.

After dinner, he sat on the balcony, lost in thought.

Lu Xun poured him tea.

Lu Shu pulled her into his arms, holding her like a puppy, and told her about things that happened when they were children.

"My uncle's house has a lot of children! Huo Xi and Zhang Chongguang are the same age, but Huo Xi is a girl. Back then, she could play the piano while slacking off, but Zhang Chongguang was different. My uncle had very high expectations for him, and he also held himself to those standards."

Lu Shuo's voice became lighter and lighter.

He's different from us! If I or Yunshi weren't excellent, we would still be who we are. But Zhang Chongguang is different; he knew from a young age that if he wanted to stay in that family and earn his uncle's approval, he had to put in a lot of effort.

Lu Shuo let out a soft sigh.

"Perhaps, this is not what he wants!"

"Now, this wasn't what he wanted either, because he only went down this path for Hoseok."

Lu Xun listened in astonishment.

She has always been well-behaved, leaning against Lu Shuo's arms and asking in a low voice, "Will you show mercy to Zhang Chongguang"

Lu Shuo shook his head.

He wouldn't! If he needed them to show mercy, Zhang Chongguang wouldn't deserve to be called Zhang Chongguang.

If he dares to start, don't be afraid of the consequences.

As Lu Shu expected, there was no need for him to take action. The major financial groups in City B were already making their moves.

Their core support lies with Huo Yunsi.

They did not allow Zhang Chongguang to break the rules and take other people's cakes.

……

Yijie Law Firm.

Ho Xi stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, with financial news playing in his ears.

She knew perfectly well how fragile the alliance between Si's family and Zhang Chongguang was. Once they got those investments, Si's family would immediately ditch Zhang Chongguang and leave him to be slaughtered.

At that time, Zhang Chongguang would be surrounded on all sides.

He will not show mercy.

Huoxi lowered her eyes and made a phone call. Zhang Chongguang answered almost immediately.

Both were silent.

After a long time, Huo Xi spoke in a low voice: “Zhang Chongguang, stop cooperating with the Si family.”

"Are you doing this for me or Lu Sha"

Huo Xi didn't answer his question, she said instead: "You should know what happens to those who continue to cooperate with the Si family." piano lesson tonight.Huo Yuns thought gently stroked her hair: "Anran, you don't actually need to be so tense!
