Chapter 13 - Chapter 13

The next day, Chu Ge accompanied Liu Yanru to Moyu Group as usual. The company's stock had hit an all-time low, with shareholders selling off their shares in droves. Meanwhile, Huayue Group was secretly buying up these stocks, preparing to profit later.

Wang Shan, the HR head, reported to Liu Yanru, "Chairman, many employees are resigning. If we can't stop this trend, the numbers will keep rising."

Liu Yanru remained calm, "It's fine. Keep recruiting."

"Chairman, shouldn't we try to stabilize the situation?" Wang Shan pressed, concerned about potential consequences.

While this conversation unfolded, Chu Ge sat on the sofa, watching a video sent by his secretary, Li Lanyin. It revealed compromising information about Ye Feng's current girlfriend, showing her involved with multiple wealthy men.

Chu Ge, amused, wondered how Ye Feng would react to such a video. He decided it wasn't the right time to send it yet.

"Proceed," Chu Ge instructed Li Lanyin, feeling a thrill at having someone under his command.

Li Lanyin immediately set her plans in motion, recruiting various operatives for their upcoming move.

Meanwhile, Ye Feng had taken refuge with his sister and comrades at his friend Wu Manhong's place. Known as "Blood Rose," Wu Manhong ran a popular bar called Red Romance and had a fearsome reputation in Yundu.

Wu Manhong welcomed Ye Feng, grateful for a chance to repay a past favor. She assured him of his sister's safety, "I'll have my people watch over Yaoyao. No one would dare cause trouble in my territory."

Ye Feng thanked her gratefully, and Wu Manhong felt a flutter of emotion, quickly suppressed when she thought of her powerful backer.

Later, when Ye Yao wanted to meet her friend, Ye Feng reluctantly agreed, trusting in Wu Manhong's protection. However, not long after, they received news that Ye Yao had disappeared.

Wu Manhong, furious at this breach of her territory, barked orders into her phone, "Find out who dared to move against me and bring them in immediately!"

Ye Feng, frantic, called Zhang Qi to check surveillance footage. Wu Manhong tried to comfort him, "Brother Ye, don't worry. We'll have news soon."

Suspecting Liu Yanru's involvement, Ye Feng called her, his voice cold with murderous intent, "You bitch, did you do this? I warn you, if you touch Yaoyao, you'll regret it."

Liu Yanru, genuinely confused, replied coldly, "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

Chu Ge, overhearing, took the phone, "Ye Feng, are you pretending I don't exist?"

Ye Feng hung up, his mind in chaos.

"Well, he hung up," Chu Ge remarked, handing the phone back to Liu Yanru.

"Don't kill anyone," she cautioned.

"Boss, you can trust me," Chu Ge assured her with a smile.

Moments later, Ye Feng received a text message with an address, promising information about his sister. He rushed off with Wang Shi and the others, while Wu Manhong ordered her subordinates to follow and assist.

Li Lanyin, having sent the message to Ye Feng, then sent another to Li Fei. Everything was set. Now, they just needed to wait for Zhao Lingyun to enter the trap.
