Chapter 65 Declaration of War
Bai Mengmeng finally felt relieved. Now, she no longer had any reservations and walked alongside them without hesitation. Her gaze fell on Lu Ze beside her, and she thought to herself, "I originally thought that mysterious person was so powerful, but it turns out he's nothing special. He's just a clown."
Next, Bai Mengmeng led Lu Ze to the place where the spoils of war were stored. There, Li Ming and Zhao Xu were tightly bound together, completely powerless. Bai Mengmeng slowly circled them, a mocking smile on her lips, and said, "You people, your abilities are even worse than mine. I thought he would have a better eye for choosing subordinates than I do, but who would have thought you're just a bunch of useless trash." With that, she took out her phone, filmed the scene, and sent it to the mysterious person.
The mysterious man waited anxiously for news, but when he saw the video Bai Mengmeng sent, he was instantly enraged. In his fury, he slammed his phone to the ground again. Although he wasn't short of money, he couldn't possibly break two phones in just one day.
After Bai Mengmeng untied them, she chased them out. At this moment, Lu Ze stood quietly to the side, watching everything. The two men cursed as they ran away, but Lu Ze took out his phone and filmed their pathetic state, quickly forwarding it to others. Soon, many people saw the video, and everyone burst into laughter, mocking their pathetic behavior.
Luffy also saw the video and immediately called Lu Ze. It turned out the mysterious man had asked Luffy to rescue them. But Luffy refused without hesitation, because he thought those two guys were utterly useless; no one would take them seriously, and would even despise them for being stupid. The mysterious man angrily hung up the phone, while Lu Ze and Bai Mengmeng laughed and joked on the other end. Indeed, sometimes, not acting rashly allows for a clearer perspective.
At this moment, Liu Ting, looking at them, suddenly had a new idea: "Look how happy we are right now! Since that's the case, why don't we celebrate together tonight?" Everyone readily agreed, seeing this as an opportunity to celebrate the success of the revolution. Thus, a joyous celebration was about to begin…
At first, there were only a handful of people, but now everyone is in pairs and getting along very well. That evening, everyone had a relaxed and enjoyable time. Bai Mengmeng happily took some photos and sent them to the mysterious person. However, when the mysterious person woke up in the middle of the night and saw the photos, he was filled with endless helplessness. After all, even if he were incredibly wealthy, he couldn't possibly throw away three phones every day. In fact, this was also an indirect declaration of war between Bai Mengmeng and the mysterious person. She realized that if she wanted a harmonious business environment, she had to bravely resist. She couldn't choose to be acquired or disappear simply because of her own weakness. This was also a selfish desire deep within Bai Mengmeng's heart. Perhaps, one day, she would witness the tremendous changes in City A.
In the stillness of the night, Lu Ze, by the faint moonlight, silently gazed at Bai Mengmeng, who slept soundly beside him. She lay peacefully, as if in a beautiful dream. Lu Ze's heart was filled with endless thoughts and emotions.
In fact, he had already given his decision a lot of thought and reflection last night. Now, recalling the situation, he realized that there were other wiser choices, but he had chosen the most foolish and risky path. This made him feel extremely regretful and remorseful.
They had both endured despair and pain, and now that they had finally come together, why should they be afraid? Ultimately, it was because he lacked the strength to protect Bai Mengmeng. If he had sufficient power, perhaps he wouldn't be in this predicament and could better protect her. Thinking of this, Lu Ze's eyes became firm and resolute.
Bai Mengmeng was a little thirsty. She groggily opened her eyes, intending to get up and get some water, but found Lu Ze staring at her, which startled her. "Ah!" she screamed, "What are you doing? Why aren't you sleeping? What are you looking at me for?"
Lu Ze quickly explained, "I'm sorry, did I wake you up?" He felt a little guilty, thinking that he had disturbed Bai Mengmeng's rest.
Bai Mengmeng shook her head, telling Lu Ze that she was just thirsty and wanted some water. Lu Ze quickly picked up a water glass and handed it to her, asking with concern, "How are you feeling now? Are you feeling any better?"
Bai Mengmeng took the water glass, gulped down several mouthfuls, put the glass down, turned to look at Lu Ze, and asked softly, "Why aren't you asleep yet? Is something on your mind?"
Lu Ze took a deep breath and told Bai Mengmeng what was on his mind: "I was thinking that I was too naive before, always thinking of solving problems in the most direct way. But after this incident, I realized a truth - if you want to achieve great things, you must know how to make choices and weigh the pros and cons. If you hadn't woken me up in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Bai Mengmeng smiled and said smugly, "I'm pretty amazing, right? Actually, although we can't risk the whole company, we're definitely not easy to bully. After all, with such a large business, we do have some tricks up our sleeves. Besides, we all rose through the ranks from the bottom. Although we've been promoted quickly, we still understand some basic principles."
Lu Ze nodded silently in agreement. Bai Mengmeng continued to comfort him, "Go ahead and do it without worry. Those people don't have extraordinary abilities. No matter how they scheme against us, we can defeat them one by one. As long as we are united, we will definitely be able to overcome all difficulties."
After speaking, Bai Mengmeng felt thirsty and drank some water. Seeing that Lu Ze still looked worried, Bai Mengmeng stretched out her arms and hugged him, telling him that nothing was insurmountable. Lu Ze tightened his grip on her arms, silently praying that this beautiful moment could last forever.
However, recently there has been much speculation and doubt about their relationship. Some believe they may have broken up because they rarely appear in public anymore. Lu Ze is very troubled by this, but he doesn't care about other people's opinions.
That morning, the sun shone brightly, and a gentle breeze caressed their faces. Lu Ze, as usual, got up early and began pestering Bai Mengmeng, insisting on taking her to work. Although Bai Mengmeng was somewhat reluctant, she eventually nodded in agreement to Lu Ze's insistence.
