Chapter 131: The Calamity of the Tang and Ji Families

ight be hurtful to say it out loud. Are you sure you want me to""Hurt someone It's fine, just say it." Elder Yuqing squeezed out a smile, which, when paired with her tightly furrowed brows, made her e...After Zheng Xiucheng agreed to Yang Yinzhu's plan, over the next three days, the business world of the entire Jiangnan region was in turmoil.

The Tang family's study.

Tang Mingde's face was ashen, his phone ringing incessantly.

"Mr. Tang, Fangzheng Group unilaterally announced the suspension of cooperation with our Tangshi Group..."

"Mr. Tang, the Crown Tianhe Investment Group requested to withdraw their investment..."

"Chairman, Charm Communications Group…"

One after another, phone calls came in, each bringing bad news.

Major partners of the Tang Group, nearly at the same time, announced their intention to terminate their cooperation with the Tang Group!

"How could this be How could this be!" Tang Mingde's face darkened, his forehead veins throbbing.

The Tang family spent decades establishing their position in the Jiangnan business world today.

Now, Tang's allies have one after another announced their secession from the Tang family!

A couple of them wouldn't make much difference to the Tang family.

Now that a dozen or so have broken away, it is undoubtedly a disaster for the Tang family!

More importantly, Tang Mingde didn't hear a single reason.

He has no idea what caused these partners to leave!

……

Meanwhile, at the Ji family.

Ji Dongshan was so angry that his face turned ashen. He pushed the table with both hands, sending all the documents flying.

"These bastards, they'd rather pay a penalty than sever ties with our Ji family! They won't even give us a reason, what on earth do they mean!" Ji Dongshan roared.

Ji Ru Mei squatted down and slowly picked up the files that had fallen to the ground, placing them back on the table. She softly advised, "Dad, don't get angry, stay calm. These companies are willing to pay huge breach of contract fees to sever ties with our Ji family, there must be a reason for this. We'll send someone to investigate and find out."

Ji Dongshan shook his head, his face still grim.

He knew that getting angry now was pointless, but he still couldn't calm down!

Whatever the reasons these companies may have, they did it, and it has dealt a heavy blow to the Ji family!

It is foreseeable that after today's events, the stock price of Huanben Group under Ji's family will plummet to the bottom. At that time, shareholders will flee one after another, and Huanben Group will have to collapse!

While the Ji family has other businesses, they primarily rely on the Huanben Group!

If the Huanben Group goes bankrupt, the Ji family will be ruined!

In this situation, Ji Dongshan couldn't keep calm at all.

After over a hundred years of effort by generations, the Ji family achieved its current status in the Jiangnan region. If it were destroyed under Ji Dongshan's hands, how could he face his ancestors

"We must find a way to get her back!" Ji Dongshan said, his eyes bloodshot.

Ji Ru Mei frowned and said, "Dad, I will find out the reason behind these companies' actions. Give me half a day."

Ji Dongshan rubbed his temples and nodded.

……

At the weekend, Fang Yu lay in bed in his room, thinking about some things.

He wanted to go on a trip to Juefeng in the northwest before leaving, to see what secrets were hidden in the ruins of the Wudong Sect.

A series of recent events left him feeling somewhat perplexed.

Many things that had long since disappeared from his memory suddenly came back to him one by one.

This couldn't help but make Fang Yu a little suspicious, was it his previous memory that was wrong, or was his understanding at the time incorrect

If not these two reasons, what could cause these vanished things to suddenly revive

Revival...

When Fang Yu thought of this word, his eyelids twitched, and a flash of inspiration crossed his mind.

Deep down, it seems like something is waking up...

What is it

Then, he heard a light 'click' sound outside the door, followed by Yu Yueyue's scream.

Fang Yu came back to his senses and got up from the room. He saw Yu Yueyue sitting on the ground, rubbing her left knee.

Her knee was a little red and swollen, looking like a pretty serious injury.

Fang Yu stepped forward and helped Yu Yue get up, letting her sit on the sofa.

"Fang Yu gege, did I wake you up" Yu Yueyue said apologetically. "I see it's almost noon... Mom doesn't have a holiday today, so I'm going to cook some noodles first..."

"How did you injure your knee" Fang Yu asked.

“I tripped and fell during yesterday afternoon's rehearsal, so I took a sick day today and didn't go to rehearsal...” Yu Yueyue sighed softly, saying with worry, “The school anniversary celebration is next week. I hope my knee will be better by then.”

"It's just a minor injury, I can help you heal it." Fang Yu said.

"Fang Yu gege, you... will you still cure diseases" Yu Yueyue asked, her eyes wide.

At first, when Fang Yu helped put on her broken right leg, she was unconscious. Later, Wang Yan never mentioned the incident to her, so she remained unaware of it.

Fang Yu didn't speak, he just extended his right hand and placed it on Yu Yueyue's left knee.

Yu Yueyue's body trembled slightly, and a blush crept onto her face.

Then, she felt a warm flow in her knee, very comfortable.

"Fang Yu's brother's palm is so warm... If I could hold his hand, it would be even more comfortable, wouldn't it" Yu Yueyue looked at Fang Yu in front of her and thought to herself.

Ten seconds later, Fang Yu withdrew his hand.

"Alright, should be fine now. You can try standing up." Fang Yu said.

Yu Yueyue was still a little disappointed that Fang Yu had taken her hand away, but when she heard him say that, she stood up and gently moved her left foot. She didn't feel anything unusual.

Then she tried stamping her left foot, but still felt no pain.

"Fang Yu gege, my knee is really better!" Yu Yueyue was overjoyed and looked up at Fang Yu.

Fang Yu picked up the water glass and took a sip.

"Fang Yu gege, are you hungry I'll go make some noodles for you," Yu Yueyue said.

"Let me do it. I don't have confidence in your cooking." Fang Yu stretched and stood up, saying.

"Then I'll help you out!" Yu Yueyue said.

……

After lunch, Yu Yueyue went straight to school for rehearsal because her left knee injury had recovered.

Fang Yu originally wanted to rest for a while before setting off for Northwest Juefeng.

But just as he was about to rest, he received a call from Qin Yimo.

"I'm going to a calligraphy and painting exhibition this evening. Would you like to come with me" Qin Yimo asked.

"I feel like you've become dependent on me recently, and that's not a good thing," Fang Yu replied.

Qin Yimo was silent for a moment before saying, "As I told you before, I had all the people around me who could be used called back to the capital... Recently, the danger lurking around me has increased. I have no other choice."

Fang Yu thought for a moment, and sighed.

Who would have thought Qin Yimo was the granddaughter of Qin Wudao

Qin Wudao, that old geezer, did this precisely because he figured Fang Yu wouldn't risk his neck to save his granddaughter.

"Well, see you when you come back. I need to rest now." Fang Yu said.

……

Two hours later, Fang Yu sat in Qin Yimo's car.

Looking at Fang Yu, who was sleeping with his eyes half-closed and looking impatient, Qin Yimo's mood wasn't pleasant.

If she had a reliable bodyguard by her side, she wouldn't have to stoop so low as to ask Fang Yu for help!

"If you're unwilling to come, you can just refuse me directly. Since you're here, there's no need to give me the cold shoulder. Besides, I'll pay you accordingly, I won't let you work for nothing." Qin Yimo couldn't help but speak out.

Fang Yu wasn't impatient, he was just not awake yet.

However, since Qin Yimo was going to pay him, he would certainly not refuse.

"As for the reward, I'd prefer monster cores. I'm running low on those, everything else is fine." Fang Yu said.

Qin Yimo turned her head away and didn't speak again.

A silence fell over the car.

Ten minutes later, Qin Yimo suddenly remembered something and asked Fang Yu: "The person who put the curse on me that day..."

"I'm dead." Fang Yu replied.

He used the Soul-chasing Talisman to leave a mark on the person's soul, intending to find him again when the person returned to the main base.

Unexpectedly, just two days ago, Fang Yu could no longer feel the imprint left behind.

Fang Yu didn't believe anyone could remove the mark he left with magic.

Then there's only one possibility: the person who cursed them is already dead, which is why the mark has disappeared.

As for how he died, there are many possibilities, but it's pointless to speculate.

"Dead" Qin Yimo's face changed slightly.

"Well, my leads have run dry here. To find out this person's identity, you Qin family will have to investigate yourselves." Fang Yu said. familiar somehow!I've definitely seen this before, somewhere.Where had she seen this before! She couldn't remember, and didn't want to dwell on it.But her wariness of this mark... had reached its pea...
