"Besides these, we also discovered that the Yang Family has also sent people to Jiangnan. I suspect that the Yang Family is definitely targeting the Lu Family this time. After all, one of the Yang Family Ancestors died at the hands of Old Master Lu, and Lu Tianzhan also crippled a genius from the Yang Family. Such hatred is irreconcilable."
Uncle Shou slowly exhaled, his face heavy with concern, and continued, "Miss, what should we do next? The whole of Jiangnan is now the center of a storm, brewing with terrifying strength. Once the news of Old Sir Lu's death spreads, this force will probably erupt in the shortest possible time. These people will not allow the Lu Family to exist any longer. We must plan in advance, whether to enter this quagmire or leave."
Hearing Uncle Shou's words, Shen Manjun took a deep breath. Instead of speaking immediately, she turned and sat back on the sofa, lowering her head in contemplation.
This time, it is truly the calm before the storm. Once Old Master Lu dies, families that once had feuds with Lu Tianzhan will definitely spare no effort to strike at the Lu Family, not allowing it to rise again.
We must realize that every generation in the Lu Family produces an extraordinary genius. If they don't take advantage of Old Master Lu's downfall to destroy the Lu Family, once this genius matures, it will mean a whole new Lu Family—an invincible mighty force, and at that time, how many families will be able to withstand it?
It can be said that the life and death of Old Master Lu completely determines the future of the Lu Family. Once Old Master Lu dies, the Lu Family is not far from annihilation, and there won't be a single survivor.
No one knows how much time passed before Shen Manjun opened her mouth slowly and said, "Apart from the Yang Family, have any other families in Beijing made any rash moves?"
Uncle Shou shook his head and said, "No, although the other families in Beijing had lost a few people to Lu Tianzhan, they were just some playboys. Unlike the Yang Family, their grudges with the Lu Family aren't that deep. Moreover, they suspect this is a conspiracy by the Lu Family, deliberately luring them in, so they've been in a wait-and-see state. However, the Jiang Family in Jiangnan and a few small families are very active. Also, Miss, do you remember the conflict between Lu Tianxing and the young master of the Tang Family some time ago? I suspect the Tang Family might interfere in the Lu Family's affairs this time."
"The Tang Family?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Manjun furrowed her brows even more, a flash of seriousness in her eyes. Although the Tang Family has always been confined in Shu, never stepping into other territories, it does not mean that their strength is weak. On the contrary, within the top forces in China, the Tang Family has a definite place, comparable even to the peak period of the Lu Family over twenty years ago.
If the Tang Family also intervenes in this matter, the Lu Family will surely face destruction unless they have miraculous powers.
"Miss, don't daze off. What should we do next? Even if we join forces with the Shen Family, we might not be able to stop them. I know you like the Third Young Master of Lu Family, but now is not the time to be willful. We must get out of this quagmire. Otherwise, if we're dragged in, our Shen Family will be finished," Uncle Shou said gravely.
"Uncle Shou, I know you have the best intentions for me and the Shen Family, but the Shen Family is already on the brink. Even without the Lu Family, how long do you think the Shen Family can hold on? Besides, Lu Tianxing is my man. At this critical moment, if I don't help him, who else in this world will?"
A smile capable of mesmerizing all appeared on Shen Manjun's face as she said with a smile, "Uncle Shou, inform everyone in the Shen Family to be on high alert. Although we can't help Tianxing outright, in the business world, we're unbeatable. Anyone who dares to act against the Lu Family, I'll wipe out their business enterprises. I want to cut off their claws."
A cold aura radiated from Shen Manjun, her voice firm and decisive, leaving no room for doubt: "Also, have the elders prepare. We're ready to head to Jiangnan at any moment. This time, I'll take a wild gamble. If we win, the Shen Family will endure for a hundred years. If we lose, so be it. We have one last card up our sleeve; the Yang Family wouldn't dare to destroy us."
Uncle Shou looked at Shen Manjun's demeanor and softly sighed, saying, "Yes, Miss, I understand."
"Alright, Uncle Shou, if there's nothing else, you may go rest now."
Shen Manjun waved her hand to dismiss Uncle Shou. After he left, she let out a deep sigh. She once thought that a woman making crazy moves for a man was a ridiculous thing.
But now, she was willing to stake everything the Shen Family had for Lu Tianxing. Even if there was an abyss ahead, she'd leap without hesitation. Even if she shattered to pieces after the jump, she'd have no regrets—for nothing else than love.
In Beijing, it wasn't only Shen Manjun who received the news from Jiangnan. Lin Yafei in Beijing also got the same news in the first instance.
In the manager's office at the Sky Dragon Club, Lin Yafei's face no longer displayed its usual charm, replaced by a steely determination.
She knew very well that if anything happened to Old Master Lu, Lu Tianxing would surely die, without a doubt. Not only the people Lu Tianxing had offended, but even the Lu Family itself wouldn't spare Lu Tianxing. Lin Yafei believed that the people of the Lu Family would absolutely do such a thing.
It's known that Lu Tianxing was never favored in the Lu Family. At this time, they naturally wouldn't want him to come back and threaten their interests. Let alone when Lu Tianxing came back, he strongly embarrassed Lu Hongda.
Others might not target Lu Tianxing, but the faction around Lu Hongda, Lin Yafei believes, will go all out to target Lu Tianxing. Not to mention, the decline of the Lu Family back then was entirely due to Lu Tianxing's father. If these things, under the guidance of someone with ulterior motives, would definitely make the Lu Family see Lu Tianxing as their greatest enemy, eager to eliminate him.
Thinking of this, Lin Yafei's expression turned increasingly grim, her exquisite face covered in frost, as if the temperature in the entire room had dropped.
Beside Lin Yafei, a pale, scholarly-looking young man stood there, his face full of respect. Even though Lin Yafei in front of him was an absolute beauty, he had no covetous thoughts, only a deep sense of awe.
This man was Situ Feng, the mastermind behind the Sky Dragon Gang, and also Lin Yafei's official spokesperson.
