At the sa ti Lu Yu and Zhou Wenyuan were drinking, within the Dongdao Group in Lin'an City.
Zhou Fengming sat in the CEO's office of the Dongdao Group, his eyes gazing at the bustling scenery outside the huge floor-to-ceiling window, a hint of coldness flashing within them.
Since he laid the bait online, so ti had passed, yet no one had taken it; the atmosphere in Lin'an City was harmonious to the extre.
No events had occurred, and no one had co to spy on the Dongdao Group.
In the past few days, be it Lin'an City or the Dongdao Group, it was truly calm and peaceful, harmonious to the point that it made Zhou Fengming sowhat uneasy!
If Lin'an City was truly a harmonious city, then Zhou Fengming would be quite happy.
But as an international tropolis, Lin'an City had many undercurrents, not to ntion that his sons had died here twice!
Such an atmosphere truly couldn't be called harmonious!
Yet in such an atmosphere, after his arrival, it mysteriously disappeared completely!
A place where his two sons lost their lives has now beco extraordinarily harmonious; not only was there no one acting against him, but not even a single person was there to spy on him!
The saying goes that unusual occurrences must have a cause. This sudden harmony genuinely made Zhou Fengming feel a bit uneasy.
Creak!
At this mont, the door to Zhou Fengming's office was pushed open suddenly, and a servant in a black Tang suit walked in. Upon seeing Zhou Fengming, he said, "Master."
The servant's words were low, full of respect.
"Is there still no activity at all?"
Upon hearing the servant's words, Zhou Fengming did not turn his head, keeping his gaze on the azure sky as he asked lightly.
"Yes."
The servant responded respectfully, giving a sense of tranquility, and said, "Master, I feel our strategy must have been seen through by the other side, otherwise there is no way they would not fall for it!"
Our side had exhausted all thoughts, creating a fishing trap just waiting for the other side to bite, yet now the other side shows no movent.
This performance clearly indicates that the opponent saw through our strategy!
"It may not be as simple as just seeing through the strategy."
Hearing the servant's words, Zhou Fengming spoke lightly, "This ti our opponent is quite shrewd. I have a hunch; they not only saw through our strategy but are also plotting against us in the shadows!"
Between words, Zhou Fengming's eyes drooped, intelligence flashing within as he was clearly considering sothing.
"Plot against us in the shadows?"
Upon hearing Zhou Fengming's words, the servant appeared sowhat shocked. He looked at Zhou Fengming before him and said, "Master, this seems unlikely..."
Seeing through a fishing strategy, while challenging, is not impossible.
Yet simultaneously plotting against us in the shadows after seeing through the fishing strategy is truly formidable!
Though he held this thought, being a servant after all, he couldn't refute Zhou Fengming's statent.
Unless he wanted to live recklessly!
"If that's the case, Master."
Contemplating here, the servant spoke respectfully, "What do you think is their plan?"
Even the servant couldn't comprehend the opponent's sche this ti.
"How would I know that?"
Zhou Fengming spoke coldly, gently tapping his fingers on the desk, "I'm just thinking, it's incredibly abnormal for the opponent to remain hidden for so long, so I suspect they're scheming sothing."
Zhou Fengming, having lived for a century, with substantial experience and insight, quickly perceived the nuances.
Upon hearing this, the servant paused slightly, as if recalling sothing, then looked at Zhou Fengming before him and said, "Master, I have a guess, but I don't know if I should say it."
In his speech, the servant was full of humility and deference.
"Speak freely!"
Now, Zhou Fengming was trying hard to think through the opponent's plans. Upon hearing the servant's words, he said, wanting to hear different opinions.
"Thank you, Master."
Upon hearing Zhou Fengming's words, the servant said, "Master, I'm thinking, could the opponent have seen through our strategy from the start, then bypassed us to attack the family in Jinling City instead..."
Upon these words, Zhou Fengming's fingers tapping the desk stopped abruptly, and he turned his gaze towards the servant beside him.
"A strategy of cutting off the roots, is it?"
Upon hearing the servant's words, Zhou Fengming closed his eyes slightly, thought for a mont, then nodded and said, "Hmm, upon close consideration, it truly is a good strategy to leave us here and bypass us to directly attack the family in Jinling City; this strategy is indeed vicious!"
In between words, Zhou Fengming's tone was low, with an extraordinarily cold feeling.
He now vaguely felt that this strategy was indeed formidable.
"In that case, Master."
Upon hearing this, the servant quickly said, "Should we return to Jinling City now to take precautions?"
In his voice, there was a hint of urgency, for if the opponent truly employed a strategy of cutting off the roots, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"No need."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Fengming shook his head and said, "Before leaving, I arranged everything concerning the family. The current family is absolutely solid as a rock; no matter who the opponent is, it's impossible to cut off the roots!"
"Considering the deep foundations of the Zhou Family, even the authorities must show respect, and even if the opponent holds so power, they can't touch the very foundation of the family. So we can confidently govern Lin'an City!"
In his speech, Zhou Fengming's tone carried a hint of a cold smile: "Moreover, should this be true, it will be a perfect opportunity for the two sons at ho to train, strengthening the family's cohesion."
Now Zhou Fengming revealed a sense of tranquility within his words, appearing extrely confident, believing the deep foundations of the Zhou Family would make it impossible for any opponent to act against them!
"Yes, Master."
Upon hearing Zhou Fengming's words, the servant spoke, his speech full of humility and deference.
Though he wanted to persuade further, he ultimately held back.
As the patriarch of the Zhou Family cared little about this affair, what need did he, a re servant, have to expend effort with words?
