However, his mindset underwent a complete transformation.
After Old Man Jin left the group chat without saying a word, almost every hour, a former member would leave.
Perhaps sensing the unfavorable situation, the promised financial assistance from that cunning old man, Master Lin, has yet to arrive.
Everything is going in the worst possible direction.
Will I go to jail?
The big boss took a cigarette out of the cigarette pack, put it in his mouth, and stared blankly at the sky.
"Mr. Lu, did you ever seriously try to help me?"
He couldn't get an answer to this question.
However, thinking of what Lu Chengzhou had just said, that he would help him get out of trouble as much as possible, he felt a little tempted.
Perhaps Mr. Lu is still willing to help him.
His subordinates couldn't help but sigh when they saw that he looked like he had been severely brainwashed.
A few agitated individuals started urging the big boss to back down.
"Boss, even if we lose, we should lose in style!"
"Exactly, why do we listen to that kid Lu Chengzhou in everything?"
"What makes him dare to say we're going to lose!"
"What if we win?"
Despite everyone's encouragement, the big boss seemed completely unmotivated.
He got into the car without saying a word, stepped on the gas, and drove off.
A few days later, in the early morning, the big boss announced that he was leading his team to withdraw from this massive joint event.
The remaining people in the group all cursed him for being shameless.
Then, I quietly left the group.
Like Old Man Jin, they all had their weaknesses exploited and had long harbored the idea of quitting.
It's just that I haven't found the opportunity yet.
Nobody wants to take the blame.
Now that the big boss is personally taking the blame, they naturally have no choice but to back down.
The Meng sisters, who were far away in Jingzhou, both breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the news.
Meng Wanyu looked at Lu Chengzhou's contact information and frowned slightly.
"We haven't been in touch for a long time since that day."
378. Did I do something wrong by choosing to leave that home?
While busy dealing with this business crisis, neither of the sisters mentioned Lu Chengzhou.
But in reality, they were thinking about this person every single moment.
However, their feelings for each other remained hidden deep within their hearts.
It was Meng Wanyu's idea not to bring Lu Chengzhou to Jingzhou.
The reason is simple: if he were around, the two sisters would inevitably harbor resentment towards each other because of him, making it difficult for them to focus on their work.
Lu Chengzhou, who was left in Yicheng, spent his days eating, drinking, and having fun, according to Aisha, seemingly completely indifferent to this massive joint confrontation.
However, in fact, much of the information Meng Wanyu received was given to her by Lu Chengzhou.
He played an indispensable role in successfully dismantling the united clans.
These things were never discussed openly, but their father was aware of them.
Boss Meng already had a good impression of Lu Chengzhou, and after this crisis, he had an even stronger desire to control Lu Chengzhou.
This young man must be used by the Meng family!
The best way to restrain him is naturally to have him marry into the family.
Coincidentally, both of his daughters were fond of this man.
Then, things become much easier.
Before the two sisters decided to leave Jingzhou, Boss Meng called them into his study for a private talk.
"You two should start thinking about your personal lives."
Meng Yong made his point clear to the two of them.
"I hope to hear Lu Chengzhou's choice for the two of you as soon as possible."
Meng Wanyu remained silent and looked at her sister.
The older sister remained silent as well.
Looking at his two good-for-nothing daughters, Boss Meng couldn't help but sigh.
"I know you two are both interested in him, but he can only choose one!"
"The Meng family can only have one heir!"
"You must give me a decision!"
Despite being coerced, they remained silent.
They have compromised far too many times for the sake of this large family.
When I was a child, I gave up friendships that were readily available for me.
As we grow older, we give up the freedom that is readily available to us.
Now, are they really going to have to give up the family ties they've been holding onto so tightly for this?
No, this time, there will be a different choice...
Meng Wanyu took her sister's hand and led her towards the door.
The sound of high heels clicking on marble was very crisp.
The moment they pushed open the door, the blast of cold wind woke the two sisters up quite quickly.
The love-hate relationship that I had just rehearsed in my mind hundreds of times has finally come to an end.
"Sister, we will always be together."
"Ah."
Meng Wanyu chuckled and said, "Actually, not getting married is not illegal."
The older sister nodded and sighed, "Yes, not getting married is also a choice."
As she chatted and laughed, she seemed to have let go of her worries.
Meng Wanyu turned around and glanced at her father.
Meng Yong stood up, put his hands behind his back, and looked at his daughters with the same seriousness.
Their eyes met.
It seems that at this moment, they have made an unconventional decision.
"Regarding the Meng family's affairs, I think I won't be so devoted anymore," Meng Wanyu suddenly said solemnly. "Father, I don't want to become your successor and live out my life in such a muddled way."
Meng Yong stared at her in shock.
"You brat, do you know what you're saying?!"
Meng Jingting replied just as earnestly, "Father, my sister's meaning is exactly what I mean."
As she spoke, she softened her tone and said, "Of course, I am still my father's daughter, and I will try my best to come back to see you as often as possible."
Making such a decision is undoubtedly an announcement that this vast business empire is to be abandoned.
Meng Yong watched his daughters leave, as if all the strength had been drained from his body in an instant.
"You're really leaving?!"
"Don't come back once you leave!"
"Ayu, Jingting!"
"you……"
He possessed such a vast fortune, yet it seemed he had lost all his support.
"no no……"
He felt a throbbing pain in his temples.
I had to rub it hard.
Finally, he collapsed onto the table, panting heavily like a fish that had accidentally jumped ashore.
My mind was racing with thoughts.
However, he couldn't muster any resentment or desire for revenge.
I just feel like I've aged in an instant.
My thinking is outdated compared to that of young people.
……
……
Yicheng.
Meng Wanyu got off the bus, dragging her luggage.
She was in a good mood the whole way, and even talked a lot with her sister about her hopes for the future.
The older sister smiled and agreed with her.
After leaving that home, it felt like a heavy burden had been lifted from my shoulders, and a heavy shell had been shed.
