Lu Ning's voice was mocking; she hadn't expected the white lotus to act so quickly.

She thought for a moment and said, "It seems that the eldest brother thinks you are no longer useful and will only bring trouble to the company, so he kicked you out and let Qin Xiang replace you. This shows that even if I don't do the live broadcast and don't reveal all this, you will still be punished by law."

This was Lu Dongyou's true purpose.

After all, the eldest brother has invested so much money in the entertainment industry, he certainly doesn't want it all to go down the drain.

So if the division starts now, it means that the eldest brother is giving up on the fourth brother.

After hearing her words, Lu Bei broke down and became somewhat defensive: "You're right, I've finally fallen to this state, worse than being in prison. Are you satisfied now?"

Lu Bei never imagined that he would be abandoned by his older brother.

He never imagined that Qin Xiang, the daughter of a driver, could not only steal everything from Lu Ning under the protection of her elder brother, but also steal his!

Lu Ning laughed out loud, her voice indifferent: "I'm quite satisfied."

Let them experience what it's like to be themselves; there's nothing more satisfying than that.

“Lu Ning, you should agree to cooperate with me, otherwise it will be too late once Qin Xiang gets all your assets.”

"Hahaha, now you're getting anxious? When Qin Xiang took everything from me, didn't you just stand by and tell me to be magnanimous? Now that Qin Xiang has taken your company, you feel wronged and think it's unacceptable?"

Lu Ning's words were like knives, stabbing deeply into Lu Bei's heart.

Lu Bei was speechless for a long time before finally saying, with a lack of confidence, "Now that I've experienced everything you've gone through, I understand the grievances you suffered back then."

"You deserve it!"

Lu Ning interrupted Lu Bei directly.

Lu Bei finally broke down and said, "Lu Ning, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, it was my fault. I was selfish and arrogant, it was all my fault."

The man's voice was choked with sobs, as if he were truly saddened and regretful.

Lu Ning chuckled lightly: "Why don't you go and cry to your older brother? Maybe he'll soften up. After all, you're family, bound by blood."

She hung up the phone as soon as she finished speaking.

But Lu Ning's mood was far from calm.

During this time, she also had her public relations team investigate Qin Xiang's father, but they found no clues.

A perfectly healthy person, yet not a single trace was left behind.

Her previous hacking of Qin Xiang's phone was discovered, and Qin Xiang must be on guard now, having already deleted all evidence.

If it weren't for the photos being taken unintentionally by her PR team, she herself would have wondered if she was hallucinating and had mistaken the person for someone else.

But Lu Ning was certain that she hadn't misread it.

Now that her older brother has given Qin Xiang so many resources, and the seemingly innocent girl is living such a good life, the people behind the scenes are even less likely to show their faces.

Lu Ning's mind was a bit of a mess; she needed to think things through carefully.

Soon, she received a call from the person in charge of Douxia: "Ms. Lu, your account has been reported and you need to suspend your live broadcast for investigation. It will be restored after the investigation is completed, so don't worry."

Lu Ning knew without asking that the Chen family was behind this.

It seems the Chen family really wants to keep this son-in-law who married into their family.

Not long after, Ji Mo knocked on the office door and walked in with a cup of milk tea: "You think you can just get rid of me with a cup of milk tea?"

"Thank you so much for your hard work today, I'll definitely treat you to a meal later."

"Alright, I'll go now, so there won't be too many fans outside and I won't be able to leave."

Lu Ning also noticed that quite a few people had arrived outside the team's base, most of them having heard that Ji Mo was there and coming to see their idol.

Lu Ning helped Ji Mo slip away through a side door.

After leaving the team base wearing a hat, Ji Mo called Ji Chiqian: "Brother, I overheard it by accident. My mom, and that old white lotus from the Mo family, often hang out with that lady from the Chen family. I overheard them talking about this."

"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"

“At that time, they only said that their surname was Lu, that they were from City A, and that their parents had passed away, leaving only their siblings. I didn’t think much of it then, but today, knowing that the Chen family arranged for these media to leave, I guessed that the son-in-law who moved in with his wife was the eldest sister-in-law’s older brother.”

When Ji Mo said it in the afternoon, he saw that Lu Dongyou's expression had changed, and he knew that he had guessed correctly.

After hearing this, Ji Chiqian rubbed his temples, which surprised him as well.

Ji Mo spoke up: "Brother, you can handle this directly. But it seems that my mother and grandmother don't approve of you two being together. If Grandma has already spoken to the Chen family, I doubt your influence will be enough."

"You don't need to worry about this. Just keep an eye on Mom and Grandma."

"Brother, don't worry, I'm on your and sister-in-law's side, and I'm determined to resist this arranged marriage! But I've been keeping an eye on them at home and can't go out to earn extra money, so I'm a little short on cash."

"I'll increase your credit limit."

"Thank you, brother. You're like a brother to me. I promise I'll complete the mission."

When Ji Mo saw the credit limit increase on his card, he couldn't stop smiling. He had to go pick up his new car!

After leaving the team's base, Lu Ning returned to her dormitory and collapsed from exhaustion.

Chen Guoguo comforted her: "Your older brother went too far. He used all sorts of despicable means to force you to back down, even though you almost died that day."

"I have a solution, don't worry."

"I just feel sorry for you. You have so many brothers, yet Qin Xiang, the driver's daughter, took everything away from you."

"I'm not sad for them anymore, because I can live a good life on my own. I'm not attached to any of that bullshit family ties."

As soon as Lu Ning finished speaking, her new roommate behind her said, "But I don't think so. Family ties are still very important. No matter what happens, the whole family should work together."

Lu Ning glanced back at her new roommate: "Most family members are worth it, but some family members aren't."

Chen Guoguo spoke up for Lu Ning, saying, "You have no idea what Lu Ning has been through."

"Alright, there's no need to argue about this."

Lu Ning didn't want to explain her relationship with the Lu family to outsiders. People who don't believe you will never believe you, and she didn't need to rely on other people's approval to live.

Remembering what Lu Bei had said, Lu Ning still tried to call Lu Nanfeng, but his phone was switched off.

Lu Ning had no classes the next morning, so she went directly to the hospital to find Lu Nanfeng.

Currently, Lu Nanfeng's most compelling witness.

But when she arrived at the hospital, she found the ward empty.

Lu Ning asked the nurse and was told that Lu Nanfeng had already completed the transfer procedures.

Lu Ning thought of what Lu Bei had said yesterday. Could it be that her eldest brother had really sent her to her third brother's side?

"Lu Ning, I knew you would come to the hospital today."

Lu Bei was still wearing a hat and mask, and was currently still in a hospital gown.

Where did they go?

“He has already been transferred to another hospital. My second brother had a big argument with my eldest brother about the medical orders, and the next day he was forcibly transferred by my eldest brother’s people. Now even I don’t know where my second brother is.”

Lu Ning looked at the empty ward; her older brother had acted even faster than she had imagined.

She looked at Lu Bei and said, "It seems that my brother has invested a lot of money in your company."

"That's right, but we haven't made much profit before. Thanks to the script you wrote for me, the recent TV series is a huge hit, and the movie that will be released in a few months will help the company recover."

At this point, Lu Bei looked at her and said, "There's a screenwriter exchange meeting tonight. Big Brother personally took Qin Xiang there. If you don't go, Qin Xiang will steal all your hard work."

"Weren't you just like them before? Why are you pretending to be a good person now?"

Lu Ning didn't give her a friendly look.

Lu Bei looked somewhat embarrassed: "I admit, I did this on purpose before, just to make things difficult for you. Now it turns out I was just a fool who was completely fooled by Qin Xiang. But we have to take back what belongs to us!"

Lu Ning looked up at her and said, "I have a condition."

She didn't trust Lu Bei at all.
