The Dongfang Family’s businesses were also quick to respond, not to mention they had people above helping them out.
When things seemed as if they were about to be taken care of, another scandal of theirs broke out.
This time it directly involved the people from the Dongfang Family who held executive positions in government sectors.
At the same time, those smaller families attached to the Dongfang Family were also pulled into the whole situation.
For a moment, members of the Dongfang Family were jittery as each and every one of them were in danger of being exposed.
“Who has such great power to push the Dongfang Family to such a miserable state?”
The other families were also talking about it.
The Dongfang Family were anxious. They were like cats on a hot tin roof and when the situation was about to escalate to the extent that they had no control over it, Rick came looking for them.
“Lu Jingye is the one behind this,” Rick said in certainty.
The Dongfang Family did not believe him. “He has already been chased out of the Lu Family by Patriarch Lu, how could he still have such great power?”
“Ha!” Rick laughed. His laughter was very dark. “You don’t understand him well enough. He will make plans in advance for whatever he does. I didn’t mention if he has that capability right now or not, but he did have that capability in the past. As long as he has already made plans previously, it’ll be easy to make your family fall into ruin.”
“Besides…” Rick looked at the Dongfang Family’s expressions of distrust and said, “Lu Jingye is very protective of his own. I believe you should have touched something of his before? As long as something he cares for suffers, he will make it so that the culprit doesn’t even know how they met their maker.”
The Dongfang Family thought of how they had dispatched men to capture Zi Yi and their expressions turned ashen.
Rick noticed their expressions and laughed. “If you want to avert this disaster, the best way is to seize his weakness. Such as the Song Jewelry in his hand or that woman named Zi Yi. Use them as an exchange. Otherwise, the Dongfang Family will be gone.”
Everyone looked at Rick with a furious expression. They were not happy with what he had said.
However, Rick did not care about their attitude and he stood up with the intention to leave.
Patriarch Dongfang looked at him with a sharp gaze. “Why did you visit us and tell us all these things?”
Rick laughed. His laughter was cold and cruel. “Because… I want to make Lu Jingye experience regret.”
Rick left after he had said his piece.
After Rick left, the Dongfang Family started to discuss among themselves.
The Second Elder said, “This Rick has always wanted his younger sister to marry Lu Jingye, but Lu Jingye would rather leave the Lu Family to be with Zi Yi than marry Aisha. I feel that his words are credible.”
The Third Elder said, “I have the same thoughts. However, we have to guard against him too. He must have other motives for telling us this information. I think that we might as well make use of him too.”
Dongfang Ming said, “How do you intend to go about making use of him? He’s not an easy target.”
Dongfang Hao spoke up. “I think that we can indeed make use of the two weaknesses of Lu Jingye that he mentioned. Also… Patriarch Lu has an uncompromising personality and since he said that he would leave him to fend for himself, he will definitely stay true to these words. Why don’t we…”
Speaking up to here, he made a gesture of cutting his throat. “Rick has money and so why don’t we cooperate with him to deal with the Song Jewelry? As long as Song Jewelry falls into a crisis, Lu Jingye will not have the spare energy to pay attention to us. In that case, Fourth Uncle will be able to take care of our current situation.”
…
After Rick met with the Dongfang Family, he returned to the place where he and Aisha were staying.
Aisha was seated near the windows and staring blankly into space. The cold air blew in through the windows and messed up her golden locks of hair. It seemed as if she had not felt the chill creeping up her skin and her entire being was shrouded in sadness.
Rick furrowed his eyebrows and he walked over in large strides as he closed the windows.
He then turned around and looked at her. A surge of anger surfaced from deep down, but he could not bear to get angry at her. Therefore, he could only suppress his internal rage and ask, “Aisha, why are you sitting by the window? What if you catch a cold?”
Aisha looked up at Rick and with sadness in her eyes, she asked, “Brother, do you think I shouldn’t be alive?”
“What nonsense are you spouting!” Rick felt his heart clench tightly at her words and he suddenly pulled her into his embrace. He shouted at her in anxiety, “You’re not allowed to have such thoughts. Do you know how sad I would be?”
Tears trickled down her cheeks. “But Brother Lu doesn’t like me…”
“He will like you.” Rick promised her. “I will make him fall in love with you.”
“But…”
“My dearest Aisha, don’t you believe your brother? Since I can keep you alive, I can also make Lu Jingye fall in love with you.”
Aisha blankly looked at Rick who had a dark expression on his face as he said that. She clenched his clothes and asked in worry, “Brother, what are you thinking of doing?”
Rick knew that he had frightened Aisha with his appearance and he softened his expression, while stroking her head. “You don’t have to worry about it. I’ve prepared a plane for you to leave from here tomorrow. Go home and wait for the Lu Family to ask for marriage.”
“I won’t leave.” Aisha stared at his face and said, “I don’t want to go back.”
“Be good. You have not seen grandfather for several years and he misses you deeply. Don’t you miss him?”
Aisha thought of her grandfather who treated her very well and she no longer said anything else.
Rick secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He could not let his younger sister be present to witness what he would be doing from now on.
…
In the blink of an eye, the weekend arrived and Zi Yi had to head to the Robot R&D center.
Lu Jingye sent her off to her car.
Zi Yi turned around and hugged his neck. “I’ll be making a trip to the bar tonight, so I will probably be returning late.”
Lu Jingye held her waist and responded with an ‘ok’. He then said, “Don’t drink once you’re there. If any ignorant person has bad intentions towards you, let your robot take care of them. Don’t tire yourself out.”
Zi Yi’s eyes curved into crescent moons. “Got it. I should have some packages arriving today. Help me sign for them~”
“Okay.”
Zi Yi raised one of her hands and touched his handsome face. Following that, she moved her face forward. “A goodbye kiss.”
Lu Jingye allowed her to kiss him on his lips and then loosened his grip on her waist.
Zi Yi turned around and got in the car.
After Zi Yi departed, Lu Jingye turned around and headed for the backyard.
There were already two individuals standing there waiting for him.
They had camouflage painted on their faces and their real appearances could not be seen.
“Second Young Master.” One of them called out. “Rick paid a visit to the Dongfang Family yesterday. He told them to deal with Miss Zi and the Song Jewelry.”
Lu Jingye merely acknowledged what he said. His expression was very calm, and no one could see through his thoughts.
The other man said, “Second Young Master, our men investigated that during the car accident Aisha experienced several years ago, she did not only break her leg.”
Lu Jingye furrowed his eyebrows and asked, “Where else was she hurt?”
“We did not manage to find out. The Alysuss family has erased everything related to Aisha from that time.”
Lu Jingye fell into deep thought at his words.
Sometime later, he said, “Continue keeping an eye on the Dongfang Family and Rick. Immediately report to me if there are any movements from them.”
“Understood!”
