Chapter 226 Stop Right There

Lu Feng completely ignored Lin Dong's voice, raising one hand and pointing directly at Tang Shengtang in front of him.

"Mr. Tang, your risky assets, Mr. Lin doesn't believe in them, but I do. You are truly inhuman. You will face retribution for doing this."

These few words, once spoken.

The vast conference hall, with its previously boisterous atmosphere, instantly plunged from midsummer into deep winter.

Silence descended all around, and everyone present held their breath, not daring to utter a word.

Though these people remained silent, their eyes were filled with an astonishment that words could not describe.

What was going on?

How did this happen?

A perfectly fine business gathering had devolved into this, leaving everyone present in an extremely awkward situation.

On stage, Zhang Ke felt as if he had been slapped hard twice.

"Lin Dong, what on earth is going on?" Zhang Ke asked, his eyes wide.

Zhang Ke knew this Lu Feng; he also knew that this person was from the Lin family.

However, he was utterly bewildered. Since he was from the Lin family, had this kid lost his mind, not knowing that today was a significant day for the Lin family? And that this gathering was extremely important?

By causing such a scene, this kid was deliberately trying to fracture the relationship between the Lin family and Zhouge Mountain Villa.

What kind of behavior was this?

Seeing Lin Dong's dark expression, Zhang Ke was at a loss for words.

After all, Lin Dong had invited him today. For that reason alone, Zhang Ke felt he had to do something.

To minimize the destructive impact of Lu Feng's earlier words, Zhang Ke immediately straightened his frail body and walked towards Tang Shengtang.

"Mr. Tang, he's just a young man who doesn't know any better. Please don't mind him."

However, Tang Shengtang remained completely calm.

He had never expected Lu Feng to show up, let alone in such a manner.

Wasn't this just disrupting his own plans?

If he weren't standing in the center of the stage at this very moment, he would have already burst into laughter.

This kid, truly wise in all other aspects, had made a foolish mistake.

What good would come of this for him?

Nevertheless, Tang Shengtang maintained his usual demeanor of humility.

"Mr. Zhang, I will not dwell on this matter, nor will it affect my Zhouge Group's cooperative relationship with the Lin family. As everyone knows, the cooperation between my Zhouge Group and the Lin family was not just my decision, but the result of Mr. Lin's careful consideration. If a cooperative relationship were to break down simply because of one person's outburst, then such a business would be too fragile to continue."

Tang Shengtang's words were subtly manipulative.

Originally, Lu Feng's attack was directed at him, but with a few simple words, as if he had spoken a hidden spell, he had not only easily deflected the attack but also displayed his magnanimity.

Lin Mei felt her scalp prickle at the scene unfolding before her.

Was this the method Lu Feng had told her about yesterday?

If so, this method was far too crude; it was practically courting disaster.

Lin Mei tried her best to stop Lu Feng from continuing. Although she didn't fully grasp how the situation would evolve, one thing was clear even to her, an outsider: Lu Feng was certainly no match for them.

Because, no matter how she looked at it, the advantage in the current situation was firmly in the hands of Tang Shengtang, that old fox.

But as Lin Mei tried to step forward, Lin Dong and Zhang Ke stood like a wall, blocking her way.

And just then, Lu Feng spoke again.

"Mr. Tang, your words sound good, but they are meaningless. If you have the ability, can you make the accounts public right now?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Shengtang could no longer suppress his inner laughter.

As expected, young people were still young people, lacking experience.

They wanted immediate success but often lacked the patience for things to unfold gradually. This would lead to a reversal of fortune and a deviation from the right path.

Once on the wrong path, not only would all advantages disappear, but even continuous attacks would only give others the impression that this person was mentally unstable.

And in Tang Shengtang's eyes, Lu Feng had already gone astray.

Tang Shengtang smiled with an air of effortless superiority.

"I believe there is no need to disclose this matter. Firstly, everyone present is here to show support, not to attend a meeting or engage in strenuous academic research. Secondly, I, Tang Shengtang, have been completely transparent with the Lin family regarding these figures. I see no necessity for it. However, if anyone present is truly interested, then, someone."

Tang Shengtang spoke with conviction.

He put on a show of being ready to reveal the data immediately if anyone asked.

But in reality, he dared not do so.

After all, tomorrow was the day to adjust those risk assets back.

There wasn't enough time. The traders stationed at Zhouge Group were likely already in their positions.

Although at first glance, there were no obvious flaws in the overall market.

However, with a closer look, one could find clues.

But Tang Shengtang was confident that in this setting, he would not be publicly exposed.

And the one about to be executed was likely Lu Feng standing before him.

As expected, his judgment did not even last three seconds in his mind.

"Lu Feng, get down!"

A deep voice, like a lion's roar, erupted from Lin Dong's chest. He could no longer contain himself.

This Lu Feng was clearly defying him.

Initially, he had planned to gently persuade him, but Lu Feng seemed deaf.

Realizing that continuing this way would only lead to more trouble and bigger problems,

Lin Dong could not stand idly by.

"Guards, throw him out."

Seeing Lu Feng persist, Lin Dong could only resort to this helpless action.

Five security guards, guided by Zhang Ke, quickly approached Lu Feng. Before Lu Feng could react,

Ten arms instantly locked onto him like chains, firmly restraining him.

Soon after, Lu Feng was escorted out of the venue.

"I apologize, there was a slight incident just now."

If Lin Dong's mental fortitude were not strong, he would likely have lost the courage to face anyone at this moment.

Tang Shengtang, on the other hand, had thoroughly enjoyed the spectacle.

It seemed that the Lin family, the grand Lin family, and Lu Feng, this figure who was said to be invincible within the Lin family, had finally exhausted all their tricks.

Because, based on his limited understanding of this kid,

This kid's methods were quite impressive. Since he had resorted to such a desperate measure, it clearly meant he was gambling his future as well, further proving his judgment.

With this thought, the last shred of caution in Tang Shengtang's heart vanished.

The entire world had finally become peaceful.

However, at this moment, the atmosphere on Lin Dong's side had turned extremely cold.

Watching Lu Feng being dragged away,

Lin Mei was about to rush down from the stage and head towards Lu Feng.

But before she could take three or five steps, a low but commanding voice suddenly rose from behind her.

"Stop!"
