At the dining table, perhaps because Leng Yu was a bit more enthusiastic about Cai Di, the Leng Clan couldn't help but pay more attention to her, but they didn't show it.

After dinner, Yuan Qing left with her two disciples.

Hu Xian and Leng Hu returned to their room for a lunch break.

Wen Anqi looked at her youngest son and asked curiously, "Ah Yu, tell me the truth."

Leng Yu propped his head up with one hand and said bitterly, "My dear Mommy, we are not even close."

Wen Anqi took the tea from her husband and smiled. It was rare for her to see her youngest son so distressed, "Boy, there is even a girl you can't handle."

"Mom, she is very special," Leng Yu smiled and the heroic appearance of Cai Di racing the car appeared in his mind. That was the most attractive part of her to him.

"She is very special. This girl is pretty but her personality is cold. She doesn't look like she's pretending," Wen Anqi lowered her head and took a sip of tea.

"Brother, how much longer do we have to wait?" Leng Yu asked, looking at his brother.

"Just wait," Leng Yan stood up and tidied up his clothes.

Then, he left without looking at Leng Yu.

On the other side of the car, the butler drove while Mickey sat in the front passenger seat. Yuan Qing and Cai Di sat in the back.

"Ah Di, are you familiar with the Leng Clan's Second Son?" Yuan Qing, who had been resting with closed eyes, suddenly asked, breaking the silence.

"Master, he is my friend," Cai Di pursed her lips.

Friend?

When these two words came out of Cai Di's mouth, Leng Yu meant something in her heart.

Ever since young, Cai Di had always been cold and detached.

She had been down the mountain for so long and had spent the most time with Mickey. He had never seen Cai Di make friends. She said that she did not need them.

Yuan Qing was also surprised. Cai Di had a strong resistance to outsiders since young. She was cold and indifferent. Only when she was with her fellow disciples did she show emotions.

But this time, she saw that she had changed a little. Although she was still very cold, the indifference in her eyes was less.

Was this because of the Leng Clan's Second Son?

Seeing that Master had no intention of asking further, Cai Di secretly let out a sigh of relief.

The moment she was questioned, she suddenly realized that Leng Yu had secretly invaded her life during this time.

As soon as the stock market opened in the afternoon, the stock prices of all the companies in the Shangguan family fell like water, floating in green.

Then, on behalf of the Mu Clan, Mu Tianheng announced that he would never cooperate with the Shangguan family.

As soon as this statement was released while the upper circle had yet to react, the Wen Clan followed closely behind to issue the same statement.

This made everyone think of the big commotion in the city center yesterday. That street belonged to the Shangguan family. They would know once they checked it. They couldn't hide it but others couldn't find out the details.

Now it seemed that the Shangguan family had offended the Leng Clan and Mu family.

What was more unexpected was that Group L also issued the same statement.

Group L, ranked top five in the world, had a wide range of businesses. It covered whatever industry you could think of. But the main ones were electronic, biological, and e-commerce.

The group stronger than Group L was run by some ancient big family, and many people were investigating who the boss behind Group L was.

It was just that ever since Group L rose, it had lived in harmony with other groups, mutually benefiting from each other. It had never been on bad terms with any group.

Now, they also stated that they would never cooperate with the Shangguan family, which made those families who were waiting to see could not figure it out.

When receiving the news, Shangguan Hong was so angry that he smashed his beloved purple sand pot. The veins on his temples bulged and he gnashed his teeth, "Mu family, the Leng Clan, good, good, good."

Despite the conflict between the Leng Clan and the Shangguan family, there was cooperation in their businesses. Now, they shed all pretense of cordiality.

However, why did Group L suddenly join in?

Shangguan Qi rushed back from outside and stood there with his head lowered, not daring to make a sound.

After a while, Shangguan Hong regained some calmness, "What's the situation at the company now?"

"We lost 5% of the market with a trend of falling. Moreover, many groups close to Mu Clan and Wen are withdrawing their funds."

The anger that Shangguan Hong had just suppressed rose again. He slapped his palm on the supporting hand of the pear tree and instantly turned into slag. He said ferociously, "Call David Lean and ask when his promise will be fulfilled."

"Yes," Shangguan Qi turned around and immediately dialed David Lean's number.

Shangguan Hong called the butler and asked him to call all the higher-ups of the company to his house for a meeting. His Shangguan family would not fall so easily.

"Grandfather, David Lean said he had someone transfer the money, but this is far from enough for the current situation," Shangguan Qi hung up the phone.

"The clan has to spend too much. If it's not enough, ask him for more, as well as the clans that follow us," Shangguan Hong exhaled a breath of turbid air.

"But grandpa, David Lean is not a fool. Moreover, that will make those families feel disappointed," It was rare for Shangguan Qi to refute Grandfather's words.

"I know, but we can't lose. I have other plans. You go and inform them," Shangguan Hong said with a cold look in his eyes.

"Yes."

Although David Lean agreed to support him with funds, he had his plans.

Seeing the stock price in the tablet continued to fall, he picked up his coffee and took a sip. He put it down and sneered, "The Shangguan family, ah. They are said to be a powerful family. But it was chaotic as soon as they withdrew some funds."

"How's the investigation going?" David Lean put down the iPad and called his subordinates.

The subordinate was timid and did not dare to look into his eyes. "Sir, it has been so long. For the time being, we only found out that the Shangguan family intended to get close to the Yuan Family twenty or thirty years ago and visited it many times. But Yuan Family did not agree. After that, we can't find anything proving the Shangguan family's relation to Yuan Family."

"Useless," David Lean swept the coffee on the ground, and the expensive carpet was instantly destroyed.

This did not conform to Shangguan Hong's character. He had always been unscrupulous to achieve his goals.

He did not pay attention to the relationship between the Shangguan family and Yuan Family.

However, when hearing what Shangguan Hong said to Yuan Qing yesterday, he remembered something.

Back then, he received a letter and found out that Yuan Family had something that he needed. That was why he was half-believed and went to investigate Yuan Qing and approach her.

It was just that he had never found the person who had sent him the letter.

This time, it was also Shangguan Hong who came to meet him in Country A.

At first, he thought that they were mutually beneficial. But now it seemed that things were not like this.

The subordinate hurriedly lowered his head with his heart beating fast and his face filled with fear.

The subordinates on the other side immediately called for the servants to clean up.

David Lean's phone rang again. He didn't want to hear it, but when seeing that it was Shangguan Qi, he answered, "Mr. Shangguan, is there anything else?"

"You want more?" David Lean said with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, but he didn't flip out either, "Sure, but I want to see the Shangguan family head. Alright, I'll wait for Shangguan Young Master's arrangements,"

David Lean hung up the phone, with cold and ruthless eyes. He said as he gritted his teeth, "Shangguan Hong, do you think I'm an ATM? No matter how much you get from me, I'll make you spit it out."

"Continue to investigate. I want to know the result as soon as possible."

The subordinate was in a dilemma but did not dare to say no. Otherwise, the outcome might be that he would not be able to see tomorrow's sun.

"Yes."

"Also, check the schedule of Yuan Qing's seven disciples as soon as possible."

"Yes."

David Lean picked up the tablet, waved his hand, and all his subordinates immediately left.

In the afternoon class, Mu Tianen was absent-minded. She held her head with one hand and spun the pen with the other, with many patterns. The students sitting behind her were all attracted and did not concentrate on class.

The teacher wanted to open his mouth and say a few words to her, but in the end, he pretended not to see it.

After enduring until the end of class, Mu Tianen stretched her body and received a message with a 'ding' on her phone.

Mu Tianen took it out to take a look. It was sent by Li Yang, who said that he had already helped Qiu Ziyi's mother to transfer to the new hospital.

"Student Mu Tianen, the principal wants to see you."

"Okay," Mu Tianen put away the machine.

Mu Tianen walked to the principal's office and knocked on the door.

"Come in, please."

"Nice to meet you, Principal," Mu Tianen said with a sweet smile as she pushed the door open.

"Tianen, come, sit down and talk." Song Ling raised his head with a smile on his stern face.

"Ok."

"Principal, what's the matter?" Mu Tianen sat down and blinked.

"Your honor," Song Ling took out a certificate from the drawer and handed it to Mu Tianen.

Knowing that Mu Tianen did not like to be high-profile, he gave it to her in private.

"Thank you, Principal," Mu Tianen accepted it with both hands.

"You don't have to thank me. I even received a lot of praise because of you."

Mu Tianen's full marks made many headmasters of famous universities interested, who asked him about her.

Mu Tianen looked at it and lost interest. It was better to do exercises. She pressed her hands under her palms and raised her head to look at Song Ling, "Principal, is there anything else?"

"Yes," Song Ling asked as he placed a document beside him, "Are you interested in the International Mathematics Competition to win glory for our country?"

"Yes," Mu Tianen's eyes lit up. She took the document and opened it.

"Then I'll add your name to it. In the middle of next month," Song Ling said.

"Ok," Mu Tianen closed the document, "Principal, I will work hard."

Her serious look made Song Ling laugh. He pointed to a pile of books on the side, "These are topics. You can take them back to do some exercises or take a look. This time is international. The participants are all elites from different countries. The difficulty is not comparable to the previous mathematics competition."

Mu Tianen looked at Song Ling with a hint of sadness in her eyes, "Principal, you already guessed that I would agree to it and prepared all of this."

"Mu Tianen, you should go back to class first," Song Ling did not deny it, but the bell rang.

Mu Tianen carried a bunch of topics and casually dropped the certificate.

Seeing this, Song Ling did not stop Mu Tianen. He picked it up and looked at it, "Send it to the teacher."

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

David Lean's patience was gradually worn out as he waited, especially when he could only stay in the hotel.

"Sir," the subordinate said respectfully as he walked in.

David Lean put down the red wine glass and said with a gloomy face, "Speak."

"I haven't found out about the relationship between the Shangguan family and Yuan Family," Seeing that David Lean's face was as black as ink, the subordinate quickly added, "But recently, we found out that Shangguan Hong asked people to investigate the matter of Yuan Qing before she was on Mount Qingyun. He focused on the patients she had treated."

"Interesting," David Lean sneered.

The subordinate heaved a sigh of relief and lowered his head, not daring to look at David Lean.

"Continue investigating."

The subordinate responded and left.

David Lean looked at the news report on the TV. The Shangguan family's wealth had been brought out in the past half a month with a great loss. However, the big family had some foundation.

Even if it was pincered by several large groups, it would be able to survive as a large clan.

The other Zhou Clan was not so lucky. Unknowingly, it had fallen from a first-rate family to a third-rate one. The company had been depreciated by half.
