Saving the male protagonist in the dungeon only resulted in him becoming cannon fodder.

Just as Lu Ze returned to China, Li Yan also watched the video and couldn't help but feel a sense of fear. "I never imagined that this was such a huge organization, and that our Li family was just a pawn in their hands." The more Li Yan thought about it, the more outrageous things seemed.

On his way back, Lu Ze was deeply puzzled. He was almost finished investigating when a mysterious figure suddenly appeared. Meanwhile, on the other side of the United States, the mysterious man angrily berated Old Master Lu, "Who told you to go see him alone?" Old Master Lu was secretly delighted; he just wanted to vent his anger. Seeing that despicable man in jail, and now seeing his son, he felt incredibly satisfied. However, he still forced himself to remain calm and replied, "I just couldn't resist." The mysterious man sighed helplessly. He hadn't wanted to reveal his identity, but because of this foolish Old Master Lu's visit to Lu Ze, all his plans had been disrupted. "Alright, let's put this on hold for now."

As Old Master Lu walked out of the room, he glared fiercely at the aloof and mysterious man.

Lu Ze finally returned home. Bai Mengmeng, seeing him return safely, was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes, and she rushed forward to hug him tightly. Lu Ze gently patted Bai Mengmeng's back and softly comforted her, "It's alright, I'm back now, don't worry anymore." But Bai Mengmeng wouldn't listen to his advice and continued to cry. Lu Ze smiled helplessly and could only let her hug him as he carefully walked forward.

The two walked to the car, and Lu Ze gently let go of Bai Mengmeng's hand, helping her into the car. He guessed that Bai Mengmeng might have been waiting for him, even forgetting to eat. "What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you when we get back," Lu Ze said gently to Bai Mengmeng.

Upon hearing this, Bai Mengmeng's gloom finally dissipated a bit, and she replied in a coquettish manner, "Then I want to eat beef noodles."

In the dead of night, the entire city was immersed in tranquility, but Lu Ze was still busy in the kitchen, making a steaming bowl of beef noodles for Bai Mengmeng. Bai Mengmeng sat quietly at the table, her eyes fixed on Lu Ze, as if afraid he would suddenly disappear.

Lu Ze felt a little embarrassed by Bai Mengmeng's gaze. He turned his head away and said to her with a smile, "Stop looking, or I won't be able to cook anymore."

Bai Mengmeng couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this, then sat there obediently waiting. After a while, she asked softly, "Your phone has made a breakthrough in new technology, you should be able to hold a press conference soon, right?"

Lu Ze stopped what he was doing, looked at Bai Mengmeng with surprise, and said excitedly, "Is it really okay?"

In fact, the Bai family had also ventured into the mobile phone industry and had been working hard to develop new products. When Lu Ze was in trouble, Bai Mengmeng returned home and discussed it with her father. They decided to use the Bai family's technology to achieve a win-win cooperation between the two parties.

Bai Mengmeng took a deep breath and then told Lu Ze the good news: "We've discussed it, and this time we'll use the Bai family's technology and your mobile devices for a powerful joint promotion." Lu Ze knew that this was the best outcome they could achieve and the most beneficial solution for both parties. "I have no objection. We'll go through the formalities and cooperate with the Bai family. It's always better than promoting it ourselves."

Seeing that Lu Ze didn't seem to have much suspicion about the matter, Bai Mengmeng finally felt relieved. She secretly rejoiced that her plan had succeeded and was also very grateful for Lu Ze's trust.

The next day, Lu Ze rushed to the company and threw himself into his work. He knew that the most urgent task was to prepare the design drafts needed for the upcoming new product launch. At the same time, Bai Mengmeng also quickly returned to the company to actively promote the new product launch.

However, Liu Cheng and the Qiao family's initial smugness instantly turned somber. When they saw the announcements released by the Bai and Lu families, they were stunned. "Why? Why? The plan has clearly been stolen, so how can they still launch a new product? They really underestimated Lu Ze!" they muttered to themselves.

The Qiao family initially thought they had lost a powerful competitor, but the reality was far beyond their expectations—a powerful alliance had formed. Their popularity had been soaring, but now, due to this sudden turn of events, all eyes were on Lu Ze and Bai Mengmeng's product launch. What angered them even more was that Lu Ze deliberately set his new product launch date exactly the same as the Qiao family's, undoubtedly a rude awakening.

As expected, Lu Ze and Bai Mengmeng's press conference was a complete success, with a lively atmosphere and even attracting a large number of fans. Their performance won widespread praise, and not only that, a large number of fans online called on them to open a couple's account to express their love for them.

After they got home that evening, the two couldn't wait to turn on their computers and browse the comments. Bai Mengmeng couldn't help but laugh out loud as she read, "Haha, these comments are hilarious!" She assured Lu Ze, "Don't worry, I definitely didn't hire any paid trolls!" Saying this, she excitedly tapped the screen, "Wow, this comment is so funny, I'm going to give it a thumbs up!"

However, to Bai Mengmeng's surprise, her liking and commenting on the post actually made the news. Fans cheered upon seeing the news: "Wow, the rich lady liked it!", "I really want to know how to get the rich lady to like my post!", "I want to be favored..." The comment section was flooded with requests for likes.

Faced with such enthusiastic fans, Bai Mengmeng didn't hesitate and immediately bought 20 mobile phones out of her own pocket, announcing in the comments section that she would give them away for free. Netizens were even more excited, leaving comments expressing their desire to be among the lucky winners.

Meanwhile, Bai Mengmeng and Lu Ze took some time to shoot a set of romantic couple photos. The two posed sweetly together, radiating happiness. They posted these photos on their respective companies' official websites, instantly causing a sensation. Fans frantically shared them, causing their popularity to soar once again.

Back home, Uncle Bai wore a bright smile that never seemed to end. Bai Mengmeng's mother, looking at her husband, couldn't help but tease, "If you keep smiling like that, you'll laugh all your teeth out!" Uncle Bai proudly picked up the sales report from the table and said, "Look at our daughter, how capable she is! Those old folks weren't convinced before, but now they have to admit it!"
