Chapter 828: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
Long Zhan looked at Long Gui without a word of objection.
Did he decide to let Long Gui take charge of this matter?
If it was not handled properly, it would be Long Gui who would bear the responsibility in the end.
At this time, Long Ying stood up. “d.a.m.n, how big of a deal is this?”
Long Zhan’s face was getting darker and darker, and his expression was very serious. He looked at a.s.sistant Cheng. “Is Fu Jiuxiao’s handiwork here?”
Whose handiwork is it?
Fu Jiuxiao’s?
Everyone’s breathing stopped at the same time, and their expressions were all different. They were all embarra.s.sed by a few things, and no one thought about Fu Jiuxiao.
a.s.sistant Cheng did not dare to look at Long Gui’s face. He only said to Long Zhan, “Fu Jiuxiao’s injury wasn’t serious to begin with, and he has already recovered. Jiang Li’s injury is very serious, so she’s taking a leave of absence. She might not be able to make it in time for the final exams.”
Even though the Long family did not keep an eye on the Fu family for the time being, a.s.sistant Cheng, as Long Zhan’s a.s.sistant, had to investigate everything clearly.
Long Zhan narrowed his eyes. It sounded like Fu Jiuxiao had nothing to do with it. Was that possible?
“Investigate! Start with that streamer.” Long Zhan sneered. He had never contacted Fu Jiuxiao, but when he saw Long Gui, he suddenly understood.
Who would hate the Long family so much that they wanted the Long family to disappear?
Of course, it was Fu Jiuxiao.
It was because the Long family had tried to kill him and Jiang Li more than once, how could he not fight back?
Long Zhan looked at the Long family in front of him. “All of you wait here for the news.”
With a target, the investigation would be done very quickly.
That streamer who had been praised had made a few small contributions. This time, his adventure was more like he had received the news in advance and deliberately went to the exchange location to do a live broadcast.
The source of this news was actually Fu Zhongtian.
Was this possible?
Of course not.
Fu Zhongtian no longer had the possibility of coming into contact with the Fu Corporation’s affairs. If he wanted to get involved with the Long family, he could not use such a method, so…
Someone was using his name to deal with the Long family.
Long Zhan had found out through a.s.sistant Cheng that all of this was Fu Jiuxiao’s doing. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. “I’m really old.”
“This young man has more tricks than I did in the past, and he is more ruthless. I shouldn’t have let him live.”
Long Zhan had to admit that he was too confident and thought that he could control Fu Jiuxiao. That was why he gave Fu Jiuxiao the chance to hurt the Long family again and again.
If he was right, Fu Jiuxiao had more tricks up his sleeve to deal with the Long family.
Long Zhan looked at a.s.sistant Cheng and lowered his voice. “Arrange it. I’ll go see Fu Jiuxiao personally.”
Could it be that simple?
a.s.sistant Cheng’s hands broke out in cold sweat. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only agree. “Okay, I’ll make the arrangements right away.”
It seemed that Long Zhan was not going to let Fu Jiuxiao off.
If there was a direct conflict between the two sides, it would definitely not be as simple as a business war. Not to mention Fu Jiuxiao’s side, those related to Long Zhan would definitely be involved.
He was the first to be pressured.
a.s.sistant Cheng walked out of the study and closed the door. As he walked forward in annoyance, he was shocked by the woman at the end of the corridor.
It was Long Gui again.
Long Gui was so unpredictable that it was too scary.
a.s.sistant Cheng suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and smiled. He greeted Long Gui, “Miss Long, I have other work to do. I’ll be leaving first.”
“Stop,” Long Gui shouted in a low voice.
She wanted to show off the dignity of the Long family’s Young Miss, but in a.s.sistant Cheng’s eyes, it was more like a little girl throwing a tantrum.
Even so, a.s.sistant Cheng did not dare to neglect her. He suppressed his irritation and said respectfully, “Miss Long, is there anything else?”
“What does grandfather want to do?” Long Gui asked.
It was impossible for a.s.sistant Cheng to tell Long Gui, so he only said, “First is to investigate this matter…”
Long Gui interrupted him and asked again, “Will the Long family have a lot of trouble?”
a.s.sistant Cheng was speechless for a moment, and his heart also started to panic.
The more trouble the Long family had, the more dangerous his situation would be. He turned his face away and did not look at Long Gui’s overly clear eyes, “Yes, the other party is targeting the Long family’s business. According to this frequency, there should be new trouble every day.”
“If we can’t stop them, what will happen to the Long family?” Long Gui asked in a trembling voice.
Was this not something that could be seen clearly all of a sudden?
If the Long family could not handle the issue of responsibility in the future, they would be investigated because of these things. The people in charge of these businesses would be punished by the law, and the people who were protected by the long family would have nothing.
Long Gui pressed her temples and shook her head. “a.s.sistant Cheng, you go and do your work.”
a.s.sistant Cheng immediately replied, as if he was afraid that Long Gui would go back on her words. He ran as fast as he could.
Long Gui looked in the direction of Long Zhan’s study, as if she had already foreseen the difficulties and dangers that the Long family would encounter next. She muttered, “Did all of this start when I wanted to marry Fu Jiuxiao?”
“If I didn’t want to marry Fu Jiuxiao, the cooperation between the three families should have gone smoothly, right?”
That was how it was.
Long Gui knew the cause of the whole incident very clearly, and she had never thought of stopping it. She even thought that with the Long family’s strength, Fu Jiuxiao would compromise.
It turned out that she was so wrong.
Fu Jiuxiao could not be controlled, and her expectations brought disaster to the Long family.
