Lin Mei recounted everything, "He said anytime today!"
Having his guess anticipated, a soft glow involuntarily appeared on Lu Feng's face.
"Since the other party is so enthusiastic, we don't need to rush. It's not too late to go after we've eaten and drunk our fill!"
The more the other party eagerly awaited his arrival, the more he would drag his feet.
This was a cunning tactic in the art of human relations.
Meanwhile, within the Taidong Group.
The assistant, upon receiving the news that Lu Feng was coming, immediately changed his expression.
He, along with a secretary, headed straight for Zhang Yun's office.
Knock knock!
Urgent knocking sounds echoed from outside the door. Zhang Yun, who was bent over a light brown desk, immediately looked up.
"Go, open the door!"
The private female secretary attending him immediately complied.
"It's you guys!"
Seeing the assistant and secretary of Ge Jun enter with layers of gloomy expressions, Zhang Yun immediately stood up.
"What's wrong?"
The assistant hurriedly leaned over with a flustered expression.
"Director Zhang, I heard that kid, Lu Feng, is coming today!"
Zhang Yun nodded.
That's right, just a moment ago, he had heard the phone call from Lin Mei.
"Is there something wrong with that?" Zhang Yun looked at the entering assistant with a hint of surprise.
"Isn't this exactly what we want?"
He didn't quite understand why this assistant and secretary, regarding a matter they had agreed upon, would have such an attitude.
So hasty and flustered.
The assistant was not being hasty, nor was he flustered, but rather it was a facade caused by uncontrollable excitement.
"Director Zhang, you did the right thing, you did the absolute right thing. Didn't Lin Feng and Lin Dong suffer a setback yesterday? Today, when this kid comes, we need to pull out all the stops."
"Pull out all the stops? What do you mean?"
Zhang Yun's gaze swept over the assistant.
The assistant lowered his eyebrows and his voice.
After a lengthy explanation, he raised his voice, "In short, this kid, we have to cripple him!"
The assistant's pent-up anger transformed into a face full of smugness.
Although the person he had sent in was Ge Jun,
these things did not diminish his hatred for Lu Feng and the young girl who appeared with him that day.
These two people had forced him to depend on Zhang Yun now.
Otherwise, he would have already soared to success by Ge Jun's side.
In the assistant's eyes, countless flames were burning madly: "In short, we must utilize our current environment as much as possible to ensure Lu Feng never returns!"
Hearing the somewhat excessively harsh tone in the assistant's words,
Zhang Yun couldn't help but feel a sense of apprehension.
"This, never returning, isn't that a bit too much? What if something really happens?"
The assistant, after all, was not in his position.
He didn't have to take responsibility for the outcome of this matter.
However, upon hearing this, the assistant's lips curled, "Director Zhang, don't you want the vast Taidong Group to be entirely under your control? Don't forget, this is an opportunity to unite against an external enemy. I'm not asking these people to kill anyone. Breaking an arm or a leg, is that too much? Once that happens, think about it, will that young girl still follow him devotedly? A cripple, would the Lin family still have any intention of keeping him?"
The assistant's words, especially the middle part,
struck a chord with Zhang Yun once again.
When Ge Jun was around, Zhang Yun wasn't sure what this person was thinking.
But once he ascended to this position,
Zhang Yun's ambition, hidden deep within his human nature, continued to inflate and expand with the passage of time.
Now, at his age,
he could no longer tolerate people below him having minor grievances against him.
And yet, ever since he took over Ge Jun's position at the assistant's instigation,
even if he didn't want to hear it, he had heard many jarring remarks.
Last Friday, he happened to be on the third floor for something, and suddenly felt unwell, experiencing a bout of nausea.
So he went into the restroom.
Closing the door, he happened to overhear two employees discussing in hushed tones.
"Now, the entire Taidong Group has changed drastically!"
"Yes, I can't believe that fellow Ge Jun was so ruthless."
"Whether he's ruthless or not, it doesn't matter to us. If you ask me, I actually wish Ge Jun had stayed."
The other person, hearing this, sounded slightly perplexed.
"How could that be? Is he your relative?"
"Not really, but with him here, the group was stable, and we worked comfortably, even getting occasional bonuses. Look at it now, Zhang Yun has only been in charge for a short while, and the entire group is in constant conflict. It's making everyone uneasy. It feels like the group will fall apart tomorrow. Who can tolerate this? How can anyone have the mood to continue working?"
Such words resonated deeply with the other person.
That person quickly fell silent.
And at this moment, Zhang Yun, who was in the restroom stall, also fell silent.
When Ge Jun was in charge, he had always opposed Ge Jun's one-man rule in the Taidong Group.
He had always looked down on Ge Jun in various ways.
Now that he was in charge, was he worse than that person?
Therefore, Zhang Yun wanted to turn Lu Feng, and even the Lin family, into an external enemy.
A target that could re-unite the group.
And wasn't the assistant's suggestion just what he wanted?
"Alright, let's do it, but no lives are allowed!"
Realizing that Zhang Yun was still on his side,
the assistant grinned, "Director Zhang, you can rest assured about this. You just need to oversee the overall situation. We will handle this matter. Afterwards, we'll say it was due to public outrage, and we couldn't stop them at the time. Then, we'll find a lawyer to settle the case, and it'll be over!"
"That's fine, you handle it!"
With Zhang Yun's approval, the assistant was overjoyed.
"There's one more thing, I hope Director Zhang can also help!"
"Speak!"
The assistant glanced at the secretary beside him, "Later, when Lu Feng arrives, if he reaches the point of meeting with you, it would be best if we were nearby to support you, Director Zhang, how about it?"
This idea was exactly what he desired.
"Let's do it!"
The assistant nodded repeatedly.
Leaving Director Zhang's office, he immediately had the secretary summon the head of security for the entire group.
"Today, you remember this, no matter what happens, do not send anyone out, do you hear me?"
"Is something going on?"
The head of security looked astonished at this remark.
However, before the man could finish asking, the assistant had already interrupted him.
"That's right, something is going on today, but you don't need to know too much about it. In short, do as I say and inform all security personnel. If this matter is successful, you will receive the same benefits from me. If anyone interferes halfway and messes this up, don't blame me for being merciless!"
The assistant's voice was extremely stern. Security, no matter how great, was ultimately not as great as the two people in front of him.
If he didn't act, there would be benefits.
Why not?
As an employee, why worry so much?
"Yes!"
The man immediately stood at attention and saluted.
With everything prepared, the assistant arrived at a coffee table on a viewing platform on the second floor.
This spot offered a clear view of every movement in the lobby.
