Chapter 69 - 64: Spoiled and Arrogant
If you can’t figure it out, don’t think about it. Lu Yanzhi straightforwardly asked Fu Jichen, "What did the Pei Family do to anger you?" To act so viciously right from the start, it clearly wasn’t a minor feud.
"They didn’t provoke me." Fu Jichen disdained making an excuse to brush him off, "I promised someone."
"Who?"
Who could both hold a grudge against the Pei Family and persuade Fu Da to help?
Lu Yanzhi racked his brain, checking the people around Fu Jichen one by one, and finally remembered Shen Jianian, considering her background, he felt he had found the right answer.
Back when Lingyue Group was annexed by the Pei Family, to avoid gossip, the news was blocked from the outside world, and ordinary people didn’t know the inside story at all. However, with such a big move, it was nearly impossible to keep everyone in the dark. Although the Lu Family’s headquarters is in Yicheng, a large portion of its business is tied to Beicheng. Lu Yanzhi had heard about this matter a long time ago.
"You, you don’t tell me, you’re doing all this for Shen Jianian!" Lu Yanzhi shouted, his voice almost cracking.
In contrast, Fu Jichen looked calm and collected, "Why not?"
Lu Yanzhi didn’t know what expression to use to judge his current demeanor; such a dangerous thing, and he didn’t care at all, as if he were saying "The moonlight is nice tonight."
"Are you really going to make an enemy of the entire Pei Family for Shen Jianian?" Lu Yanzhi wasn’t joking with him, his expression was very serious. "The Pei Family is deeply rooted in Beicheng, and it’s not as easy to destroy as it seems on the surface. Any slip, and you’ll be in trouble."
The internal struggle of the Fu Family is even more intense than what’s outside. Those so-called close relatives are waiting to see Fu Jichen fall into the mud and not get up so they can continue vying for the heir’s position.
Fewer competitors bring more hope, doesn’t it?
