Lu Yanchen frowned. He had asked Yang Sitong to leave the place already. Now that a couple of days had passed, what was she still doing here? That was just throwing complete disregard to his words! Did she really think that he wouldn’t do anything to her just because she was his life savior?

Taking a card, Lu Yanchen looked at Tang Han. “The project that the Tangs are going to start on recently, Yang Chifeng wanted in on a part of it as well, right?”

“That’s right! We’re in the midst of signing a contract…” Tang Han was a little curious as to why Lu Yanchen was asking that.

“Have him back out. I’ll work with you.”

That sentence of Lu Yanchen was just like a grenade that was thrown out, causing everyone to be shocked to the max.

Chu Mubei sniggered out evilly, “Aren’t you afraid of your old man chastising you for this?”

Mo Yanzhi furrowed his brows. “Old Lu must have investigated what I said the other time…”

“About Yang Sitong dating before?”

“Chief Lu probably cares less about his son’s wife than about what his dear wife is having for dinner. His biggest concern is probably just to not have any negative impact due to it. After all, his position depends on it.”

“The f*ck?” Tang Han was in disbelief. “Old Lu, what are you playing at? Back then, I had come looking for you all thick-skinned about it, but you rejected me countless times, telling me that you weren’t interested. And now you’re saying that you want in? That’s way too weird now…”

Lu Yanchen cut him off and asked him as though he was setting an ultimatum, “Yes or no, a single word.”

Tang Han went silent for a second before replying with an iron-clad certainty, “Yes of course!”

In terms of power and wealth, the Yangs looked like they had the advantage on the surface against a lone Lu Yanchen. But in reality, Lu Yanchen was a hidden investor who had his hand in quite several highly profitable projects.

Furthermore, Lu Yanchen was his bro. How could he not stand by his bro?

Chu Mubei chimed in, “I heard that the government tender that the Yangs were working on some time ago was snatched away as well. And now you’re squeezing the Yangs out of Old Tang’s side? Looks like you’ve decided to draw the line clear with the Yangs now!”

For Tang Han, of course the best would be for both the Yangs and Lu Yanchen to work together with him. So, he asked, “How did the Yangs offend you this time around? But Old Lu, no matter what, Yang Sitong DID still save your life before.”

“What’s that about offending and whatnot? I’m merely investing in a project with much potential. Why? Unless you think that your project doesn’t have potential?” Lu Yanchen rephrased the question and threw it back at Tang Han.

“Of course not!” Tang Han replied and felt sorry for the Yangs for a full two seconds. But on second thought, what was there to be sorry about? Relying on the Lus, the Yangs had grown from a parvenu to a wealthy family in the past few years.

“But Old Lu, is this really good?”

Lu Yanchen leaned back on his chair, looking all relaxed and casual. However, the words that he spouted were cruelly cold.

“What’s not good about it? For the past few years, I’ve already outlined my bottom line really clearly. Now that I’m a married man, all I have to care about is whether or not my wife is being wronged. As for the anyone else… if I owe them anything, I’ll repay in kind, be it kindness or… vengeance.”

Chu Mubei could sense something off in those words. Thinking about what Yang Sitong had done back then, he scoffed out again, “So, after the lesson Yang Sitong received for locking Little Sister Shi Guang in the restroom, she tried something again?”

Lu Yanchen replied coldly, “In the future, I’ll definitely not permit her to do anything, not even think about doing anything. So, the best way is for her to get out of the city. I’ve already made my words clear that I don’t want to see her in the city for the next few years.”

That was probably the most benevolent he could get.
