Chapter 923 - 921: Are We Playing on Such a Large Scale Now?

Mu Dong walked over to Liang Luoyu, sat down on the sofa across from him, and looked at him.

“Young Master Liang, this brings me to ask, why did you come here alone? Why didn’t Miss Tan come with you?”

Everyone was well aware of the situation between Tan Xingyue and Liang Luoyu, so when Liang Luoyu appeared alone, Mu Dong was somewhat surprised.

“She insisted on going back to her uncle’s house, along with her brother Chu Mufeng. She said it wasn’t very convenient to bring him along, so she let me return to Beijing first.”

Speaking of this, Liang Luoyu was somewhat unhappy. They had just returned from D country, and Tan Xingyue was deliberately distancing herself from him, which he couldn’t quite understand.

However, Liang Luoyu didn’t press her for a reason, just complied with her wishes. Whatever she wanted to do, he let her do it.

While Liang Luoyu was talking to Mu Dong, Gu Yanzhe and Ling Yichen just happened to walk in, followed closely by Yuan Junye.

“When did you get back? You’ve been gone for a while and missed a lot of important events.”

Gu Yanzhe quickly walked over to Liang Luoyu, sat down next to him, and casually draped an arm over his shoulders, the gesture somewhat affectionate.

Liang Luoyu did not shy away from Gu Yanzhe’s touch. In fact, having not seen Gu Yanzhe for a long while, he found himself missing him, and his movements unconsciously drew closer.

“A lot happened in D country, but thankfully, I’m back safe. I’ve heard you’ve all been busy recently. I don’t know if there’s anything I can help with, but now I can join you and fight alongside you.”

After the kidnapping incident, Liang Luoyu had come to understand one principle—he must be strong…

At the same time, he realized that romantic entanglements were not his everything. To properly protect Tan Xingyue, he first needed to be strong.

And the best way to build his strength was to stay close to Mu Chengxi—Mu Chengxi was his biggest supporter.

Gu Yanzhe looked at Liang Luoyu and nodded in satisfaction. For some reason, he suddenly felt that Liang Luoyu had matured a lot.

“Of course, now is our busiest time. This afternoon, I’m heading to the research institute. You should go to the base with Ling Yichen and handle the handover with Young Master Ou. Soon, you’ll see the Jiang family’s arms factory go bankrupt.”

Hearing Gu Yanzhe’s plans to bankrupt the Jiang family’s arms factory, Liang Luoyu was taken aback. Had things really escalated this much during his time away from Beijing?

“No…what did you just say? Bankrupt the Jiang family’s arms factory? How is that possible? If the Jiang family’s arms factory goes bankrupt, our base will face a shortage of weapons, those advanced machines…”

Ling Yichen, seeing the bewildered expression on Liang Luoyu’s face, walked over, raised his hand, and gently patted Liang Luoyu’s shoulder.

“You really don’t need to worry about this. You know the 26th Institute, right? Master Xi has already negotiated a collaboration with them. With the support of the 26th Institute, what can the Jiang family’s crumbling arms factory amount to?”

“You know, you’ve been away from Beijing for too long, you know too little, but coming back now is just perfect, you can really have fun with us, and it won’t be long before those messy matters in Beijing are settled.”

Gu Yanzhe and Ling Yichen both looked confidently at Liang Luoyu, who for once seemed a bit at a loss for words.

Sitting on the side sofa, Yuan Junye watched them laughing and chatting, feeling somewhat out of place. He had come today to find Wen Xin.

He was completely unaware of what Mu Chengxi had been up to, so he didn’t understand what they were discussing.

Just as Yuan Junye was about to stand up and leave, Ling Yichen remembered that Yuan Junye had come in with them, looking at Yuan Junye with a somewhat playful intent.

“Mr. Yuan, in the future we might have to call you brother-in-law, we call Ms. Mu ‘big sister,’ and once you two get married, you’d better be prepared. Not only is big sister beautiful and wealthy, but she also has many little brothers, and you must not bully Ms. Mu in the future.”

Never had the reserved Ling Yichen expected to say such a thing to him, Yuan Junye sat there feeling quite uneasy and hurriedly responded to Ling Yichen’s comment.

“Of course, I will definitely treat Chengxi well and make sure she never suffers any sadness with me.”

Although Yuan Junye appeared very calm on the surface, he was actually very nervous inside. He hadn’t had much interaction with these young masters before, and suddenly sitting together with all of them, he was somewhat uncomfortable.

Hearing Yuan Junye’s assurance, everyone nodded in satisfaction. Suddenly, Gu Yanzhe thought of something and looked at Yuan Junye very seriously.

“Mr. Yuan, I heard that the Yuan family has been quite restless recently, using Kunshan Group to oppress your Tianye Technology Company. If you need help, don’t hesitate to tell me directly, we will do our best to assist you.”

Although Gu Yanzhe wasn’t very clear about the relationship between Yuan Junye and Wen Xin, he could still sense that Yuan Junye and Wen Xin had a business relationship, so Gu Yanzhe thought that pleasing Wen Xin by helping Yuan Junye was one way to go about it.

When the conversation turned to business, Yuan Junye instantly became much calmer, and his posture on the sofa also relaxed considerably.

“Indeed, they have become quite impatient, especially since they found out about my relationship with Chengxi, but I don’t need any help, as I am about to close the net soon.”

Yuan Corporation had once solidified its position thanks to network security, and Independent State wanted to cooperate with him to utilize his network security technology to protect Independent State’s cybersecurity.

But Yuan Corporation’s recent moves were too aggressive, chasing their own network security technology and overlooking many small issues, which provided Yuan Junye the opportunity.

Yuan Junye wasn’t inactive, but waiting for the right moment, he wanted to strike the Yuan family a fatal blow, denying them any chance of recovery and firmly crushing them.

Everyone looked at the confident Yuan Junye, believing he wasn’t just talking big. They were now looking forward to how Yuan Junye, with his own efforts, would bring down the Yuan family, whose influence in Beijing was not to be underestimated.

“If you can take down the Yuan family, your status in Beijing will surely skyrocket. Then no one will dare to look down on you. We’re all waiting for your good news.”
