Lu Feng picked up the phone.
His guess was entirely correct.
Zhang Yun's voice came from the other end of the phone, filled with excitement.
"President Lu, it's done!
"Good."
Confirming that Zhang Yun had no further issues, Lu Feng quickly made another call to Lin Feng upstairs.
He learned that Lin Feng and Lin Dong had already reached an agreement, and everything was ready except for the crucial element.
At this moment, the Lin family villa was not yet at its busiest point of the day.
In the evening, the formal curtain would be raised.
In the evening, the Lin family villa was as usual.
After dinner, the people from the Lin family's subordinate groups were still bustling about like headless flies.
This was because the stock market had continued to decline in recent days.
The initial surge of confidence, spurred by Lu Feng's counterattack, had gradually dissipated.
"This time, I see the opponent's move is not simple!"
"Yes, I wonder what method President Lu has this time."
"I think we don't need to worry, after all, wasn't it the same situation last time?"
A group of people were whispering, but one person's words were quickly interrupted.
"I think this time it's probably not ordinary. Last time, it lasted for a day, and now it's been two days with no movement."
"Where are you getting that? It's only been two days after tonight's conclusion. Why are you so impatient? What? Judging by your words, you hope something happens to the Lin family. What kind of awareness is that? Are you hoping for chaos?"
The person was met with a cold stare from another, and immediately had nothing to say.
Zhang Yun, guarding the entrance, heard these words clearly.
Alas!
He let out a sigh, his heart filled with unease.
"This time, President Lu, you must not miscalculate, otherwise, the suppressed torrent within might instantly spiral out of control!"
Zhang Yun returned from outside, intending to go in and take a look.
However, as these discussions reached his ears, he only wanted to go upstairs for a drink of water to calm his nerves.
Knock, knock, knock!
He walked up the spiral staircase along the corridor, but before he was halfway up.
Clang!
A sharp, crisp sound, like a bell, echoed throughout the Lin family villa.
"What happened?"
The busy servants immediately noticed the unusual sound.
Several people were about to go up.
But at this moment, a low, hoarse voice, laced with endless anger, interrupted their movements.
"What? Lu Feng, I know your strategies are always surprisingly effective, but this time is different. This opponent is not to be trifled with. Aren't we walking directly into their trap by doing this?"
"If we lose this time, will the Lin family, you and I, and those people outside, ever have a chance to recover?"
Lin Dong's voice, with its piercing quality, acted like a magnet.
Not only the servants but also the workers could no longer remain patient.
They all emerged from their positions and gathered at the entrance to the stairs leading to the third floor.
"Uncle Lin, please keep your voice down."
"Why should I keep my voice down? I understand how you feel. My health hasn't been good either during this time. I know your feelings for you and the Lin family, but this time, you've gambled too much. You believe in your operations, but now, the Lin family's funds are not abundant. As an elder, I simply don't want to see such an excellent young person go astray, nor do I want to see the Lin family's foundation disappear like this."
Although Zhang Yun knew that these were all staged scenes orchestrated by Lu Feng, he couldn't help but feel a surge of displeasure.
Seeing a few bold and curious individuals at the stairwell about to peer inside.
"What are you doing?"
He quickly reprimanded the person loudly.
Then, turning to the rest of the crowd, he said, "Alright. This is not something you should be listening to. You can all go down."
This was also one of Zhang Yun's tasks.
The two who had stepped forward quickly retreated, but while no one dared to cross the line, no one returned to their positions either.
"What are you doing? Don't you even listen to me anymore?"
Before he finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared beside him. Without even looking at him, the figure intended to bypass Zhang Yun from his right and go straight upstairs.
"Stop!"
A sharp command halted the person's steps, but the person only paused for a moment.
"Zhang Yun, what? Am I not allowed to see? I am Lin Dong's own son! Currently, only Lin Feng and Lu Feng are upstairs. If something happens to my father, who will be responsible?"
Hearing Lin Hai's words, Zhang Yun was instantly speechless.
"This is bad!" he thought to himself, "How could I forget about this person?"
Zhang Yun intended to call the people upstairs, but looking at the crowd in front of him, he dared not leave on his own.
He understood that the moment he left, these people would immediately fill the third floor.
"It seems I can only hope President Lu is more vigilant!"
On the third floor, Lu Feng noticed Lin Dong's slightly unnatural demeanor and whispered, "Uncle Lin, you need to be more relaxed."
"But no one is coming up here, what are you afraid of?"
Before Lin Feng and Lin Dong's father and son could finish speaking, Lu Feng immediately added, "Whether anyone sees it or not, you must play your part. Besides, what if someone actually comes up?"
"But isn't Zhang Yun downstairs?"
Lu Feng glanced at Lin Feng and said in a low voice, "There's someone Zhang Yun might not be able to stop."
As soon as he finished speaking.
Thump thump.
Accompanied by a series of disordered footsteps, Lin Hai suddenly appeared behind Lu Feng.
Facing Lin Dong directly, Lin Hai quickly walked over.
"Dad, what's wrong?"
Being asked this, Lin Dong's mind went blank as if struck by lightning.
"Dad, say something," Lin Feng, worried about exposing the act, nudged Lin Dong's elbow.
Snapping back from his daze, Lin Dong took a deep breath and immediately returned to his previous state.
"What's wrong? Lu Feng, it's not that I'm saying this to you, nor am I not supporting you. Think about it, if I were to stubbornly oppose you, would I have given my daughter to you?"
"What's going on?"
Seeing that he couldn't get the reason for the situation from Lin Dong, he could only turn his gaze to Lin Feng, who was not far away.
"Brother, what's going on?"
Lin Feng said, "You should leave quickly. You've been stealing leisure time recently. Now that trouble has occurred, you shouldn't get involved. Therefore, it's better for you not to know about this matter."
It seemed something had indeed happened!
Lin Hai's heart instantly felt as sweet as if he had eaten a large mouthful of honey.
However, to confirm whether these people were truly acting and how serious the matter was, Lin Hai still shamelessly said.
"Brother, Lin Feng, how can you say that? Yes, I haven't done much these past few days, but wasn't that because I couldn't help or get involved? What is the Lin family going through now? I am the second son, and I have some right to know, don't I? Tell me, what good would it do me if the Lin family were gone?"
