Chen Rushi chuckled lightly, cast his vote, and said, “Personally, 1 also hold a 2% stake in Black Hawk Group. Third Young Master, you’ve lost.”

Lu Zhiyuan’s expression turned extremely ugly. Although he knew that Black Hawk’s controlling stake might not be a bad thing and that Third Young Master would handle it well, he had only deceived Chen Rushi. Still, he felt unsatisfied deep down.

A cold voice came from outside, saying, “Perhaps not!”

Gu Ci pushed Lu Ze, who was sitting in a wheelchair, into the conference room. He looked sickly and exhausted, but his eyes were shining brightly. “I’m not dead yet, and it’s not your turn to choose the chairman of the Lu Corporation!”

Everyone in the conference room was shocked, including Lu Zhiyuan.

“Father!” He stood up and walked towards Lu Ze. “You’re awake?”

Gu Ci smiled gently and asked, “Did we come too late?”

“Coming early is not as good as coming at the right time!”

Lu Shijie turned pale with fear, and Lawyer Yang dropped his documents to the ground, closing his eyes in despair. Chen Rushi and Ji Chi exchanged a glance and realized that they had failed.

Jiang Junlin was in a great mood, blowing on his hot tea. “President Ji, this is fate.”

Ji Chi propped his chin up and shrugged his shoulders, flashing a sly smile. He lowered his voice and said, “It doesn’t matter. Whoever wins, it’s the same to me.”

Lu Ze coughed, and Gu Ci gave him a pill. Lu Ze’s cough gradually subsided, and Gu Ci pushed him forward. Lu Shijie dared not look into his eyes. Lu Ze said, “Adjourn the meeting!”

With Lu Ze awake, the shareholder meeting lost its meaning.

Chen Rushi looked at Gu Ci and realized that if Lu Ze could wake up, he must not have suffered brain death. From beginning to end, it was all a scam. Lu Ze hadn’t experienced brain death, and the hospital had hidden the news.

“Cici, you’re amazing. You have my admiration.”

Gu Ci met his gaze and calmly said, “I’m protecting the most important person to me.”

Chen Rushi hadn’t expected to be manipulated by both Lu Zhiyuan and Gu Ci. No wonder Lu Zhiyuan was so confident and unafraid of offending the major shareholders.

So, it turned out that his trump card was still alive!

It was a real pity that he almost took over the Lu Corporation.

Chen Rushi could afford to lose. He stood up and said gently, “Chairman Lu, you’ve just recovered from a serious illness. You should rest more. I wish you good health and a long life.”

Lu Zhiyuan and Gu Ci looked at him together, their gazes sharp. Chen Rushi’s words were gentle and sincere, without any flaws, but they still sensed his warning and malice.

Lu Ze had been in the business world for decades and was not someone to be trifled with. “I’m healthy, and living until ninety is no problem.”

Chen Rushi led his people and calmly left the scene. Ji Chi followed him. The shareholders who had tried to challenge Lu Ze were left feeling ashamed, and their attempts to offer greetings were blocked by Lu Zhiyuan.

“Today, the Lu Family needs to clean its house. We won’t see you off,” Lu Ze said.

Xu Tingting, Lu Shijie, and Lawyer Yang were taken back to Lu Mansion. Lu Shixiu had received the news early and was already waiting. He was nervous, as he hadn’t participated in the shareholder meeting, but he understood that the situation for him and his mother and brother was already hopeless.

As soon as Lu Shijie returned to the mansion, he knelt down, tears streaming down his face. “Father, I was wrong. 1 was blinded. Please forgive me. I just wanted to obey the will and preserve the hard work of the Lu Family.”

Lu Ze’s expression was cold as he said to the butler, “Go and fetch my tea, brew it for all of them.”

“Yes!” The butler brought out the tea canister, took out the tea leaves, and brewed the tea, performing the actions gracefully and beautifully.

Xu Tingting glanced at it but quickly averted her gaze.

The tea was quickly brewed, and the butler served it to the three of them.

The three of them took a sip.

Lu Ze asked, “Is the tea good?”

Lu Shixiu was uneasy, “Father, this tea is rare and precious. Of course, it tastes good, smooth, and fragrant.”

“Alright then, there’s still half a catty left. Take it back with you.”

“Okay, thank you, Father!”

An uneasy feeling rose in Xu Tingting’s heart, as well as in Lu Shijie’s. They had all drunk the tea, and when the butler poured again, Xu Tingting said, “Shijie’s injury hasn’t fully healed. He shouldn’t drink too much tea.”

“Can’t you drink tea while injured?” Lu Ze smelled the tea fragrance. “Black tea is warming and not harmful to the body. Let him drink a bit more.”

Lu Shijie didn’t dare to say anything and drank another cup. The butler poured again, and Xu Tingting’s palms were slightly sweaty.

The calmer Lu Ze was, the more anxious they became.

Xu Tingting gave Lu Shijie a meaningful look, indicating that they couldn’t admit anything related to the will. They could only sever their limbs to save their lives.

“Master, I was wrong. The will was forged by me and Lawyer Yang. Shijie and Shixiu were unaware of it. I was confused for a moment. Your will was unfair, giving everything to Lu Zhiyuan. Except for the two technology companies, my two sons have nothing. 1 couldn’t accept it, so I conspired with Lawyer Yang to modify the will.”

Lawyer Yang also begged for mercy while kneeling. “Chairman, I…I have nothing to say. It was my greed that led to a terrible mistake.”

Lu Shixiu sat paralyzed in his chair, murmuring to himself, “The will is fake? Mother, why would you do this?”

Lu Shijie was also filled with sorrow and anger. “Mother, why did you deceive me? I thought Father really trusted me and believed in my abilities to entrust the Lu Corporation to me.”

Tears streamed down Xu Tingting’s face as she tried to defend herself. Both her sons looked at her with disappointment.

Lu Zhiyuan lazily drank his tea. “Stop pretending and call the police.”

“No!” Xu Tingting exclaimed in shock. “Master, I’ve been with you for decades, and I’ve contributed even if I haven’t achieved much. I just couldn’t accept that all your sons are from you, yet you want to give everything to Lu Zhiyuan. Shijie and Shixiu are also your sons.”

“Xu Tingting, Lu Shijie, you need to understand one thing. If I’m willing to give you a penny, you’ll have a penny. If I’m not willing to give you anything, you’ll have nothing.” Lu Ze’s face turned serious. “How 1 distribute my wealth is my freedom. The Lu Corporation is the ancestral property of the Lu family, not something you’ve built.”

Lu Shijie’s eyes turned red from swelling, filled with disbelief.

“Father, I’ve always known you were biased, but I never expected you to be this biased.” Lu Shijie suppressed his pain. “Both Shixiu and I are your sons, and legally, we have the right to inherit.”

“Do you want to go against me in court?” Lu Ze put down his teacup, his voice filled with authority.

Lu Shijie faced his gaze stubbornly, refusing to show any weakness.

“I am biased, so what can you do about it?”

“Dad!” Both Lu Shijie and Lu Shixiu exclaimed, unable to believe it. Lu Shijie said, “I don’t accept it!”

Lu Ze slammed the teacup on the ground. “You don’t accept it? So, you poisoned my tea?”

The teacup shattered on the floor, splashing tea all around. Xu Tingting’s face turned pale. “Master, what are you saying? How could we poison you?”

Gu Ci took out a hospital’s toxicology report. “This is the toxin report of the tea leaves. The dry test showed no poison, but after brewing the tea, a slight amount of toxin was detected. It’s a chronic poison. The four cans of tea leaves that Uncle Lu had all contained an unidentified pollen..”
