"Mom, the Liu family in Shinan was shut down today by the higher-ups," Luo Jinghao suddenly spoke, his tone lamenting. His eyes were deep and solemn, as if he was pondering something.

"The Liu family in Shinan?" Song Yun was stunned when she heard this, and her mind quickly searched for relevant memories. Her brows furrowed slightly, and she tried hard to recall every detail about the Liu family.

Finally, a look of realization appeared on her face: "Is that the one who has cooperated with our Luo Group?" There was some uncertainty in her tone.

After all, she hadn't paid attention to these things for a long time, and her impression of the Liu family was a bit vague.

Luo Jinghao nodded slightly, a hint of helplessness in his eyes. "Yes, we did have a cooperative relationship in the past. However, some disagreements arose due to contract issues, and we also noticed some problems within their family. Therefore, when the cooperation period expired, we no longer wanted to continue this partnership."

At this point, Luo Jinghao's tone gradually became solemn and serious.

He deeply understood the complexity and cruelty of the business world, and was even more aware that there might be many unknown secrets and potential risks hidden behind the closure of the Liu family.

Luo Ning'er, who was listening to all this quietly, bit her lips lightly, with a glimmer of curiosity and anticipation in her eyes.

Thinking of the in-depth cooperation with the Liu family in the past, Luo Xiangming sat on the large sofa, his eyes revealing a bit of emotion and helplessness: "What a fickle thing! I used to think that our two families worked together, but I didn't expect that the Liu family would come to this point because of internal corruption." He shook his head slightly, as if he felt very sorry for the result.

"Yes, father." Luo Jinghao also felt a mixture of emotions. He clenched his fists, his eyes gleaming with determination. "In this industry, benefits and risks coexist. No one can predict what will happen tomorrow. We must always remain vigilant and not let our guard down. We don't know which company will be the next topic of conversation."

On the side, Luo Ning'er sat quietly on the sofa, playing with a delicate bead necklace in her hand. The conversation between her father and brother echoed in her ears, and she thought secretly in her heart.

"The heroine just returned, and the higher-ups are already taking action. It seems they've been actively collecting evidence these past few days, hoping to wipe out those corrupt officials in one fell swoop." Luo Ning'er pondered inwardly, "I just don't know which family will be affected next. Although the original book describes the rise and fall of the family, it doesn't go into detail about these specific details."

Song Yun noticed Luo Ning'er's distraction and smiled softly, breaking the silence in the room: "Ning'er, what are you thinking about? You're so engrossed."

Luo Ning'er was brought back to reality by her mother's voice. She was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Ah? I was just thinking about what my brother said about the Liu family. I feel that the world is really unpredictable."

Song Yun looked at her daughter, her eyes full of love as she said, "Yes, things are unpredictable. But no matter what, we must remain firm in our beliefs and believe in our abilities."

Luo Xiangming and Luo Jinghao were not so optimistic.

Luo Jinghao looked at his father solemnly, a hint of anxiety in his tone: "Dad, Jiang's project is really imminent, but those people above don't seem to plan to leave in the short term, which makes me very confused. What is so special about Hai City that deserves their attention?" His brows were tightly furrowed, and the doubts in his heart were like a thick fog that could not be dispelled.

Luo Xiangming took a sip of his hot tea, his eyes darkening as if lost in thought. After a moment, he slowly spoke, "Hai City, this coastal city, with its unique geographical location and superior natural conditions, has become a vital hub for domestic and international trade. Its port trade is incredibly prosperous, serving as a crucial link between domestic and international markets. As the nation's political center, Jing City, for a city of such economic importance, must strengthen management and control. This isn't just for economic security reasons; it's also related to the nation's strategic layout. Therefore, they attach such importance to Hai City and have sent high-level personnel to inspect and provide guidance."

Luo Jinghao listened to his father's explanation and nodded thoughtfully, but then a glint of inspiration flashed in his eyes. "Dad, do you think this Jiang's project is related to the people above? After all, the Jiang family is a large family. They have been involved in politics and business for generations, especially the current heir, Jiang Yufeng. His uncle is a very important figure in the political arena."

When Luo Xiangming heard this, his eyes flickered slightly, as if he was weighing various possibilities deep in his heart.

Then, he slowly spoke, "Your speculation is not without basis. The Jiang family holds a significant position in the business world, and the political power behind them is even more complex. However, this matter is of grave importance, and we must not jump to hasty conclusions based solely on conjecture."

"Then what exactly is Jiang's motive?" Luo Jinghao frowned, still unable to understand Jiang's motives. If this matter was really related to Jiang, then what was their purpose in doing this?

"Hai City has a limited market share, and all parties are eager to get a piece of the pie. However, after years of competition and running-in, Hai City has formed a delicate balance. Any party that wants to successfully enter this market must first find a suitable entry point." Although Luo Xiangming's words did not point it out explicitly, the meaning was already obvious.

"In that case, all these companies in Hai City may become targets, and the Liu family is just the first victim." Based on his father's analysis, Luo Jinghao expressed his own guess.

Song Yun also felt the seriousness of the situation. She gently reminded: "At this critical moment, we must be extra vigilant. If we are not careful, we may give our opponents a handle, and it will be difficult to defend ourselves." Although her tone was gentle, the determination in it was unquestionable.

Seeing their speculation going further and further off track, Luo Ning'er had to offer a side note: "Dad, brother, have you ever thought about how it's possible that the people above have gathered so much evidence so quickly, given how they've only been here for so long? There must be a traitor!"

Luo Ning'er's words were like a stream of clear spring water, instantly clearing away the fog in everyone's minds and making their originally confused thoughts clear.

Luo Xiangming and Luo Jinghao suddenly understood what was going on and nodded in agreement. They realized that their previous analysis had flaws and had overlooked the possibility of an insider.

So, the two fell into deep thought again and began to re-examine the whole incident, trying to find clues from a new angle.
