Shocked! The Young Master's Petite Darling Is a Master of Mysteries-Chapter 142: Cutting the Gordian Knot

Wu Mei let out a cold laugh, "Lu Zechuan, who do you think you are? In this world, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. As long as the benefits are in place, others don’t necessarily need you!" 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Lu Zechuan’s eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, "Is that so?"

As Lu Zechuan finished speaking, several young men in black suits entered one after another.

"Young Master!" The leading young man respectfully saluted Lu Zechuan.

Lu Zechuan nodded, his demeanor calm, "During the time I was away, tell me in detail how they have been stirring trouble in the company."

The young man responded respectfully and then took out a folder he carried with him, opened it up, and began reading, "On the first day of the Young Master’s disappearance, the Eldest Miss came to the Group, held a board meeting, announced she would replace the Young Master, made arbitrary decisions, fired company veterans Sun Yi and Zhang Xin, attempting to sever the Young Master’s support."

"On the second day of the Young Master’s disappearance, the old lady was angered into hospitalization, and the Eldest Miss refused to send her for medical attention. It was only due to Young Master Zeming’s insistence that the old lady’s life was preserved."

"On the afternoon of the second day of the Young Master’s disappearance, the Eldest Miss changed the guards at the Lu Family Villa and drove away Mrs. Song, who had come to inquire about Miss Xia."

"On the third day of the Young Master’s disappearance, the Eldest Miss reached a cooperation agreement with Ji Family’s Young Master, selling off company shares."

"On the fourth day of the Young Master’s disappearance, the Eldest Miss met privately with Miss Gu from the Gu Family..."

"On the fifth day of the Young Master’s disappearance, the Eldest Miss visited the patriarch of the Fu Family..."

...

Listening to the young man in black methodically recount each of her actions, Lu Zechuan’s face instantly turned extremely grim.

Lu Zefang’s ambition truly knows no bounds!

Facing the sins listed by the young man, Lu Zefang’s face grew increasingly troubled.

Lu Zechuan, he’s truly amazing!

Not being in the company, yet having so many spies implanted there!

"So what if I did it?" Lu Zefang raised an eyebrow, constantly testing the waters, "You’re not here, should the Lu Group come to a standstill? You don’t appreciate all I’ve done for the Lu Group, and you want to settle scores with me afterward?"

Lu Zechuan’s eyes narrowed, his gaze icy, "Settle scores? Ha, you think you’re worthy?"

After finishing his words, Lu Zechuan took out his phone and made a few calls.

One to Fu Si, one to Gu Heng, and one to Ji Chenggong.

Upon receiving Lu Zechuan’s call, the heads of the three families felt a bit uneasy.

Lu Zechuan has returned unharmed!

Lucky that during their cooperation with Lu Zefang before, they kept their wits about them, otherwise, if Lu Zechuan, that lunatic, sought revenge, they might not be able to withstand it!

After hanging up the phone, Lu Zechuan’s gaze fell playfully on Lu Zefang.

"Cousin, will you leave the Lu Group on your own, or should my people escort you out?" Lu Zechuan’s expression was cold as he glanced at Lu Zefang.

Lu Zefang smiled stiffly, stubbornly saying, "Why should I leave? During the time you were gone, the board has already approved my appointment as chairman. If anyone’s leaving, it’s you!"

Lu Zechuan faintly uttered an "Oh," his tone rising inquisitively, "I’m leaving?"

Just as the words left Lu Zechuan’s lips, footsteps could be heard again at the doorway. Those who had previously pledged loyalty to Lu Zefang at the board meeting all appeared before her.

"Eldest Miss, the Young Master is back, you should return to where you came from!" One of the directors said sternly, his words unmistakably rude.

Lu Zefang’s face fell instantly, "Why are you telling me to leave? I’m the one in charge of the Lu Group!"

Lu Zefang’s face was full of defiance.

Lu Zechuan simply watched her with the eyes of someone viewing a clown.

He had worked hard at the Lu Group for so long, even the janitors at Lu Group only acknowledged him as the legitimate master. He was only gone for a few days and Lu Zefang wanted to replace him? What a dream she had!

"Eldest Miss, oh... you won’t be for long. The Young Master has already drafted a separation agreement, splitting your branch from the Lu Family. From now on, the first branch of the Lu Family will have no relation to the Lu Family!" Sun Yi said with a smile, "Eldest Miss, if you’re wise, I’d advise you not to make meaningless struggles."

"The Young Master is currently willing to give you some compensation, considering we all carry the Lu name. However, if the Eldest Miss doesn’t appreciate this gesture, then to force the first branch of the Lu Family out bare-handed, the Young Master can certainly achieve that." Sun Yi’s smile remained unchanged, but his words lacked any trace of emotion.

Lu Zefang’s face flashed with shame and anger, glaring fiercely at Sun Yi, "Who do you think you are? This is a Lu Family matter and it’s none of your business!"

Sun Yi smiled and retreated behind Lu Zechuan, choosing not to argue any further with Lu Zefang.

"Seems like you really don’t want to maintain your final dignity." Lu Zechuan curled his lips slightly, "In that case, you can leave empty-handed!"

Lu Zefang didn’t take it seriously, "Lu Zechuan, don’t forget, you don’t have the final say in this house!"

Mrs. Lu is still breathing!

After all, she is the old lady’s granddaughter, and her father is the old lady’s eldest son. Would Mrs. Lu really be willing to kick them out?

Even if Mrs. Lu were willing, she’s currently lying unconscious in intensive care!

No one’s backing Lu Zechuan, as long as she refuses to leave the Lu Family, can Lu Zechuan actually throw their whole family out?

"Before I came here, I went to the hospital to see Grandma, and Grandma woke up." Lu Zechuan looked at Lu Zefang with a half smile, "Considering what you did to Grandma, with her intolerance of sand in her eyes, do you think she’d still acknowledge you as her granddaughter?"

Listening to Lu Zechuan’s words, a look of panic flashed in Lu Zefang’s eyes once more.

The day Mrs. Lu fainted from anger, she had refused to let anyone take her to the hospital!

If it weren’t for her bratty brother insisting on it, when Lu Zechuan returned now, he’d likely only see Mrs. Lu’s urn! There wouldn’t be this mess now!

"Lu Zechuan, don’t go too far!" Wu Mei finally couldn’t hold back, "As a junior, what right do you have to talk about family divisions? Even if there were a separation, the family assets should be evenly divided! Letting us leave empty-handed? You dare to imagine!"

Separation isn’t impossible, but their rightful assets can’t be short by even one bit!

Otherwise, what was the point of marrying into the Lu Family all these years?

To face Mrs. Lu who never showed her a good face?

Lu Zechuan chuckled lightly and turned to look at Sun Yi and the group of suited young men, "Leave it to you."

"Lu Zechuan, what are you planning? I’m your biological aunt!" Wu Mei screamed shrilly when she saw Sun Yi and the others approaching.

But Lu Zechuan didn’t even turn his head, reasoning with this kind of shrew was useless.
