Lu Lixing had been almost inseparable from work during this period of time. His assistant, Chen Jing, brought him a pile of files to sign, and then asked him, “Mr. Lu, your flight tomorrow is scheduled at 10 a.m., and your return time is…”

Lu Lixing’s wedding will be held five days later, which the whole family knew about. But this situation suddenly occurred, therefore the wedding would most likely be delayed.

Chen Jing knew this well, so she did not set a return time for him. After all, this was not a matter that could be resolved in just one or two days.

Lu Lixing put down the files he was flipping through. He was silent for a moment, then looked up and said, “I’ll be back in two days.”

Only two days?

Chen Jing was surprised.

This involves the entire foreign market, so this means that every second counts and yet he’ll only spare two days?

Don’t even talk about whether we could meet the overseas leader in two days, let alone solve this that fast. We wouldn’t even be able to gauge how serious the matter would be once we get there. More time was definitely needed.

But Chen Jing also knew her duty. This kind of thing, Lu Lixing was clearer in his heart than anyone else and there was no room for her to interfere.

“Mr. Lu, there’s one more thing.”

“What is it?”

“Zhiting Technology was acquired yesterday.”

Lu Lixing furrowed his eyebrows. “Acquired?”

Chen Jing nodded her head. “Yes, it is… Mr. Lu Lixing agreed to its acquisition. He even resigned at yesterday’s acquisition meeting.”

Zhiting Technology was a company that Lu Liting started from scratch. It had started to take shape in the past two years, so if it wasn’t affected by this trade war, it would have only been a matter of time before it grew bigger.

But even if it was affected by this trade war… it hasn’t reached the point of hopelessness yet.

And, this company was founded by Lu Lixing alone. He had dedicated his heart and soul for many years to his company. Even if there was a little glimmer of hope, he wouldn’t give up. How could he agree to its acquisition?

Lu Lixing thought it over in his head for a moment but then stopped when he realized he was spending way too much thought on this matter. The crisis of the Lu family was imminent, so he now had no spare energy to care about other things.

“I understand, you can go first.”

Chen Jing turned around and left the office. As soon as the office door closed, Lu Lixing put down his pen, leaned back, and rubbed his tired brows with his fingers.

Recently, the 996 work system caused a lot of trouble. To be honest, the issue about the 996 work system was still relatively easy for him. But for the last five months, he hadn’t worked with such high intensity, so suddenly he was not quite used to it, both physically and mentally.

After resting for approximately one minute, there came a knock on the door from outside. “Mr. Lu, the meeting will start soon.”

Lu Lixing took a deep breath and forced himself to be energetic.

***

That evening, Lu Lixing returned home after ten o’clock.

Lu Lixing parked his car in the courtyard, then got off from the front seat. Lu Lixing stood in the courtyard waiting for a while, then saw Lu Liting’s car arriving and him getting out of the driver’s seat.

The lights in the courtyard were dim and not very clear.

“Big Brother…” Before they were able to clearly look at each other, Lu Liting lowered his gaze and avoided Lu Lixing’s gaze.

“The company was acquired?”

Lu Liting, who was in a low mood, nodded. “Yes.”

Lu Lixing’s brows furrowed slightly in unexpressed concern. He took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “Come inside.”

Grandpa Lu and Ji Qingqing were sitting on the sofa in the living room, chatting and laughing, waiting for them.

“Grandpa, you’re still awake?”

Grandpa Lu smiled. “We were waiting for you. Coincidentally, you came back together?”

Lu Liting greeted him, “Grandfather.”

“Sit down, I have something to say to you with Qingqing.”

Lu Lixing looked at Ji Qingqing. Seeing her relaxed expression, it probably wasn’t a serious matter.

“I’ve been fully informed of our company’s situation these past two days. I also went to the hospital to see Lao Gu today. He’s in a very poor condition, both physically and in terms of how his company’s currently faring.”

“Even if the Gu family manages to get through this crisis, their strength won’t be able to recover in the future,” Grandpa Lu said with a sigh.

“I had hoped that Gu Shaoyu would be of some help to their company, but now it seems like he’s a hopeless case.”

Speaking of this, Grandpa Lu looked at Lu Lixing. “The success of our family today is because of you, thanks for the hard work.”

The Gu family and the Lu family were equal in standing when Grandpa Lu was still young, but now, Lao Gu was hospitalized due to illness. There was no one in the Gu family who was capable of presiding over their company right now.

His only grandson, Gu Shaoyu, was a typical spoiled dandy. He spent all day drinking and was unreliable. Such a huge company and he was incapable of parrying the disaster caused by this situation.

It’s all Lu Lixing’s credit that Lu’s family can still be stable… no, be more prosperous today.

“What’s going on overseas right now?”

Hearing this, Lu Lixing looked at Ji Qingqing. “I’ll go to the United States tomorrow and return in two days.”

“Can such a big matter be solved in two days?”

Lu Lixing had no habit of speaking empty promises, so he just said, “I’ll try my best.”

Grandpa Lu was silent for a moment and did not speak.

Ji Qingqing smiled softly and proposed, “Let’s postpone the wedding.”
