Chapter 238 Tit for Tat

Before him, a scene unfolded that felt like a dream.

The stock, which had long since bottomed out, began to rebound.

And as time passed, the speed of the rebound grew faster and faster.

This pace clearly indicated someone was forcefully intervening.

Lin Hai, filled with bewilderment, cast his gaze back to Lu Feng.

Although Lin Hai was unlearned, he possessed basic business sense. To salvage the situation and achieve such a clear effect, there was only one method: a massive influx of capital. How could this young man named Lu Feng, a mere country bumpkin, possibly possess so much money?

Lin Hai’s eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets.

He racked his brain but could not fathom what method this kid had employed.

And the five men now attacked in unison.

Whoosh!

Fierce fists tore through the air.

Since the men wouldn't listen, Lu Feng had to settle for subduing them first.

Lu Feng’s martial arts were never for show. Although these men were trained, they were no match for him.

Lu Feng sidestepped, swiftly dodging the punch.

He dared to dodge?

The attacker was instantly enraged. He raised his fist, intending to teach this person a harsh lesson.

However, this time, before the attacker could throw his punch.

*Pfft!*

Lu Feng had already struck first. The man felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen. Before he could react, Lu Feng grabbed his arm and forcefully threw him backward.

And at this moment, behind Lu Feng, one man, seeing Lu Feng’s attention diverted, was about to launch a sneak attack. However, he never expected his intended target to be the person Lu Feng had just thrown.

The man who had been struck in the abdomen by Lu Feng now received a second impact.

The sensation was so intense that his already furrowed brow seemed to split open in an instant.

Two of the three men were instantly downed. The remaining few, although not stopping,

Lu Feng could already see the fear lurking in their pupils.

“What? Come on!”

Noticing that the five men were no match for him.

The elders were stunned.

They hadn’t expected this seemingly refined young man to be so formidable.

He’s good at fighting, huh? Fine, then we’ll overwhelm him with numbers.

The old man, having this thought, raised his voice again.

“Someone!”

But this time, before the voice could be uttered, another voice cut in.

“Stop!” Lin Mei shouted as she hurried in.

Quickly reaching Lin Dong, she saw a circle of old men and her expression changed drastically.

“What are you trying to do?”

Her words were firm and forceful.

“What do you think?”

“I don’t know, but I warn you, if you make any more moves, you’ll all be going to jail.”

Lin Mei’s eyes flashed with sharp determination.

She dared to speak like this now not because she couldn’t discern the situation, but precisely because she understood everything that had happened before arriving.

Glancing at Lin Dong.

Lin Mei couldn’t hide her excitement.

“Dad, that’s great! Taitai Group didn’t transfer the funds, so the contract never took effect. The news was likely spread intentionally by Zhouge Group as fake news. Now, the news has arrived!”

“What?” Hearing this, Lin Dong instantly felt a surge of energy and spirit.

The gloom in his eyes was immediately replaced by a flicker of surprise.

“Really?” Lin Dong’s hand trembled as he grasped Lin Mei’s arm.

Lin Mei nodded emphatically.

Seeing this, the group of elders became confused.

“What’s going on!”

They couldn’t help but start discussing amongst themselves.

However, their opinions clearly divided into two opposing camps.

One of them said.

“I think Lin Dong and his daughter are putting on an act.”

“I don’t think so.”

The men murmured, but eventually, one of them hit the nail on the head.

“Why don’t we just check?”

But these men were all elderly and not adept at using mobile phones.

After some thought, one of them immediately called his secretary.

Upon hearing the truth transmitted through the phone signal from the other end, the man’s face turned exceptionally grim.

“What is it?” Noticing his somber expression, the others gathered around to ask.

The man suppressed his inner turmoil and spoke word by word.

“Yes, it’s true.”

“What?”

The men exclaimed again. But this time, their reaction was more than just surprise.

The men were instantly bewildered.

“What do we do now?”

One voice immediately interrupted their scattered thoughts.

These old fools were willing to go to great lengths and cast aside all shame for money.

Before long, the men reached a consensus.

“Of course, we’ll continue to follow the Lin family.”

It’s good to have shade under a big tree.

No one would be foolish enough to ignore a clear path to prosperity.

Exchanging glances.

The leader immediately approached Lin Mei.

“Miss Lin, it was a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding!”

The man, with a fawning smile, attempted to mask his embarrassment with such exaggerated behavior.

Lin Mei was about to speak when Lu Feng stepped forward.

Lu Feng pushed aside the remaining men and walked directly in front of the leader. His tone remained calm.

“What? Found out the situation isn’t favorable, and changed your minds?”

These words, though simple, were undisguised mockery to the man.

The man’s anger instantly flared.

However, considering that he had a group of people behind him and had come with their unified opinion.

The man could only suppress his immense displeasure deep within his heart.

On the surface, he nodded continuously.

He had just offended the young man before him.

Naturally, finding another way to get through to him would be extremely difficult.

And Lin Mei, being a young lady of the Lin family.

Her authority should, by all accounts, be above this man’s.

With this in mind, the man quickly seized the opportunity, his gaze extremely fawning as he looked at Lin Mei, who was attending to Lin Dong.

“Miss Lin, what are your thoughts? Your father and I are old friends, after all. How about we pretend today’s events never happened?”

Taitai Group had frozen the funds.

As soon as she received this news, she immediately called Zhang Yun.

Lin Mei already had a general idea of what was happening.

And now, this entire situation was because of Lu Feng.

If not for Lu Feng, the entire Lin family would truly have no room to maneuver.

At this moment, Lin Dong was unreliable, and she herself was unclear about what had happened here.

Furthermore, just at the entrance of Zhouge Villa, Lin Dong had personally entrusted her to Lu Feng.

As these scenes rapidly flashed through her mind, Lin Mei finally said in a deep voice.

“You should ask Lu Feng about this matter!”

“This, this!”

The leader had expected to flatter Lin Mei and gain some face from this seemingly more approachable young lady.

But he never expected his sycophantic words to fall on deaf ears. Now, the man could only turn to look behind him.

These people were not deaf.

The group behind him had naturally heard Lin Mei’s words.

But they had not changed their strategy.

Since one person was taking the lead, even if they lost face, they figured it wouldn’t be their turn, and the benefits would still come their way.

Why wouldn’t these people go along with it?

Though appearing as a unified front, they were each harboring their own intentions, and were quite cunning.

How could Lu Feng not see through these people’s schemes?

At this moment, standing aside, he already had a plan in mind.

To deal with these people, one must use their own methods against them.
