After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 656 They really mean it!

At dawn, Pudong New Area Airport was brightly lit, and the surrounding area for miles around was as bright as day.

A young couple, wearing masks, entered the fast-track boarding lane under the escort of several security personnel.

"Why are the procedures different from what I usually do?" Tian Xi asked, holding Lu Liang's arm tightly with both hands.

If Lu Liang only accounted for 10% of her heart before going to the hotel, now he has risen to 50% or more.

She didn't know if every girl was like this, having a physical attraction to her first man.

But it seems that if she could, she would want to go with Lu Liang to the restroom.

She had an almost pathological fondness for his scent, and if their skin were close together, she would blush and her heart would race.

"You'll find out later."

Lu Liang smiled and led Tian Xi across the corridor, onto a shuttle bus, to a corner of the airport.

As the two stepped onto the boarding stairs and entered the cabin, Tian Xi was taken aback: "Is this yours?"

There were 12 luxurious cabins that looked like massage chairs, and in the distance there seemed to be a restaurant, with a chef wearing a white hat smiling at them.

"Isn't it obvious?" Lu Liang chuckled, then suddenly noticed a gaze. He turned his head and saw Lin Yan smiling at him and Tian Xi: "Good evening, Mr. Lu."

"Flight Attendant Lin, it's been a long time. Where did you go for your holiday?" He bowed slightly and greeted her.

Although the older woman doesn't have the gentle voice and graceful movements of the younger woman, she knows that everyone is simply taking what they need.

Lu Liang had needs, and she was also a little lonely, so they naturally came together and comforted each other.

Once they step out of the room, Lu Liang is the boss and she is the flight attendant; their relationship is purely professional.

So when she saw that Lu Liang had a new girlfriend, she didn't react at all.

"I didn't go too far, just went to Zhoushan and rented a guesthouse," Lin Yan replied with a smile.

"Not bad," Lu Liang said.

"Hello, sister, my name is Tian Xi."

"Hello, Ms. Tian."

Can I look around?

Lin Yan looked at Lu Liang, who smiled and said, "Go ahead."

Tian Xi was full of excitement, completely unaware of the special relationship between the two, just like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden for the first time, strolling from beginning to end, marveling at it repeatedly.

It wasn't until Lin Yan reminded her that the plane was preparing for takeoff that she reluctantly ended her adventure.

Tian Xi, still clinging to Lu Liang's arm and gazing at the scenery outside the window, suddenly turned her head and demanded fiercely, "Tell me, did you deliberately take me to eat such good food?"

The female lead in "Joy of Life," an endorsement offer from Dior, a change in the company's attitude, the top floor hotel of Shanghai's tallest building, and the ability to travel by private jet.

She was able to attend the Shanghai Theatre Academy, so her family must have been well-off. Her hometown is Chongqing, a near-first-tier city, which can be considered above the middle-class level.

But compared to what I've experienced these past few days, it's nothing. It's no exaggeration to say that my worldview was completely shattered.

Previously, just thinking about how if Lu Liang ignored her, the company's attitude towards her might change again, would make Tian Xi so anxious that she couldn't sleep.

Moreover, having already glimpsed a corner of the Heavenly Palace and witnessed what the life of the wealthy truly is, she feels she can no longer go back.

It seems to be Lu Liang's conspiracy.

"Whether we go back or not, we don't have to. What kind of conspiracy is this?"

Lu Liang was speechless, and rubbed the other's head: "You don't think you can run away, do you?"

Tian Xi smiled and said, "You said it yourself, so I'm going to keep bothering you from now on."

"It's still uncertain who will be bothering whom."

Soon the plane entered the stratosphere. Lu Liang looked at the drowsy Tian Xi and said softly, "We won't arrive in Hong Kong until three o'clock. Go get some sleep first."

Tian Xi hummed in agreement and followed Lu Liang to the lounge at the back of the cabin. She immediately took off her white shoes and crawled into bed, blushing as she left most of the bed for Lu Liang.

"You can sleep, I'm not sleepy yet."

Lu Liang has been having a reversed day-night cycle lately, and he hasn't made any effort to correct his jet lag. He only feels sleepy in the morning.

"Then I'm not sleepy either." Upon hearing this, Tian Xi opened her bright eyes and decided to stay up all night with Lu Liang.

Lu Liang said, "I have other things to do and can't stay with you."

"Okay, I'm sleepy now."

Tian Xi pouted, feeling a pang of disappointment. She pulled the blanket over her head, suddenly becoming a little temperamental. "Then you should get some rest," Lu Liang chuckled, patted her head, and left the lounge.

He wasn't unaware that Tian Xi was a little unhappy, perhaps because she was anxious and insecure, but so what?

If Lu Liang wants to play, he will naturally play with her.
If he doesn't want to, even threatening suicide won't work.

Lu Liang left the lounge, ordered a coffee, and then went to the study to call Hilt using the satellite phone.

"Give me a list of which organizations are spouting nonsense."

Lu Liang spoke calmly, but Hilt sensed something was amiss. He pondered for a moment and said, "This news first came from a dinner party, but I'm not entirely sure who it was."

"Who were there at that dinner party?" Lu Liang asked.

“Jonathan Keck of Muddy Waters Fund, Brennan Moreno of Guggenheim Fund, and Ernst Van Buren of Zade Fund.”

"Are you sure it's them?"

Lu Liang frowned. Apart from Muddy Waters, which was relatively well-known, the other two companies were just small fry.

This made him wonder if Hilt was deliberately giving false military intelligence to prevent him from making too many enemies.

Hilt said, "Lu, if you have this idea, would you personally step in?"

The big shots are all hiding behind the scenes.

Take Wilson of Little Mo as an example. Although he was defeated by Lu Liang many times, he never said a bad word about Lu Liang. He always spoke highly of Lu Liang.

Stephen Schwarzman of Blackstone and George Soros of Quantum Fund also made statements that were only directed at Lu Liang's strategy and the company Tianxing.

After all, everyone here has money. If things really come to the point where physical elimination is necessary, they would absolutely never let people know who they are.

These people in the public eye,
They were just a shield deliberately pushed out.

If Lu Liang takes his anger out on them, they won't be held responsible.

If things go well, even if Lu Liang's supporters want to take revenge, they won't be able to do so to them.

The Guggenheim Foundation and the Zard Fund were just there to make up the numbers, while Muddy Waters' role was simply to balance the books.

After all, if things go well, the relatively unknown Guggen and Zadeh would seem too insignificant to balance things out.

In contrast, Muddy Waters, as an institution specializing in shorting Chinese concept stocks, is well-known and has the right weight and status.

Lu Liang narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "It seems that this matter is far more complicated than you and I imagined."

He initially thought it was just some people talking nonsense, but now it seems that there has been a well-thought-out plan.

After all, they've already found people to fill the numbers and balance the accounts, and their roles as scapegoats are just right.

If Hilt hadn't informed him, Lu Liang would have taken it as just a casual remark and hadn't retaliated, perhaps they would have gone further.

Hilt remained silent: "Lu, what do you plan to do?"

Lu Liang's suspicions were not unfounded, because when he learned that such meticulous arrangements had been made, the first thought that popped into his mind was that they really were planning this!

"As they wish, how about it?"

Lu Liang smiled. How could a legendary figure's magnificent life be complete without some thrilling accidents?

Instead of waiting to be manipulated, it's better to manipulate them first and let them see what will happen if something goes wrong. It would be best to take advantage of the chaos to kill a few of them.

Lu Liang was also curious about what would happen.

Although I had a car accident earlier this year, I was live-streaming the whole thing and only lost contact for an hour before quickly reconnecting.

He wanted to cut off contact for ten days to half a month to see how things would develop. After all, this was a rare opportunity, and not everyone could know what would happen if he were 'deceased'.

Even if the truth comes out, Lu Liang can shift the blame onto those people. If they had no ulterior motives, why would he go along with it?

"It is good."

Hilt suddenly became serious: "But have you considered the developments outside of work?"

From a partner's perspective, he supported Lu Liang's decision because doing so, even if they didn't catch any big fish, would still kill off a few institutions and give up some market share, allowing their investment banks to more smoothly enter certain areas.

But as a friend he had known for several years and who had been kind to him, he wanted to advise Lu Liang to think twice before acting.

Human nature cannot withstand the test; when you gaze into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.

Throughout history, those who manipulate people's hearts have never had a good ending; their final fate is often to die alone.

Even if you become the world's richest person, the trust, family ties, friendships, and love you've lost will never return.
