Jiangcheng, inside a villa on Banshan East Road.
Lu Feng stretched, looked at the computer on the coffee table in front of him, nodded with satisfaction, and smiled, "Done."
After helping Old Master Xu regain consciousness, he immediately took out his computer and began to operate.
At this moment, complex command symbols rapidly flickered on the computer screen, having just completed a series of global financial springboard operations.
Lu Feng was perfectly clear about the secrets of someone like Xu Jianfang, who had hidden over a billion in offshore accounts. Naturally, he couldn't let it go; this money would be perfect for his company's operations.
Knowing the account and password, and using the top-tier hacker skills he had plundered from his dreams, he instantly turned the self-proclaimed billionaire into a penniless pauper.
Then, Lu Feng thought for a moment, typed a short message on the keyboard, and sent it to a certain number.
He could already imagine Xu Jianfang's terrified and utterly desperate expression in a bank in a foreign country.
It would probably be very interesting.
Lu Feng smiled, then casually tossed the "zombie" laptop, used for his secret operation, into the nearby trash can, as if he had just done a trivial thing.
To him, Xu Jianfang and his son were already dust not worth wasting any more energy on; their fate was already sealed... Meanwhile, in a VIP room at a Golden Triangle bank thousands of miles away.
Xu Jianfang was roaring at the bank manager like a mad dog.
"You... what the hell did you do with my money? Where's my billion-plus!? Where's my money!?"
The bank manager frowned deeply, but after the security guards arrived, he could only helplessly reconfirm the system information repeatedly: "Sir, the system shows no abnormalities in your account recently. There is indeed no money... Did you perhaps misremember the account number?"
"Bullshit! How could I possibly misremember!!"
Xu Jianfang looked deranged, completely broken!
The life-saving money he had meticulously planned for over so many years, even going so far as to kill his brother to seize power, had vanished without a trace!?
The account was still there, but the money was gone!?
This made him even more desperate than if the account had been frozen!
He roared, "It must be your mistake, or your system has a problem! Quickly, give me back my money!!!"
Next to him, Xu Wenjie was holding a tablet computer, frantically poking the screen with his finger, as if that could make the damned string of zeros disappear!
What made him despair was that it was utterly useless; no matter how much he tapped, the account remained empty.
Xu Wenjie was also completely stunned, slumping back onto the sofa, his eyes hollow and vacant, muttering subconsciously, "It's gone... all gone... it's over... completely over..."
Seeing the two men's tantrum, the bank manager's respectful expression had long vanished, replaced by a hint of disdain and wariness.
He suspected these two were likely bankrupt wretches, just trying to swindle money. He motioned for the security guards at the door to come closer, then said in a flat tone, "Sir, if you have any objections, please contact the headquarters' customer center. Now, please leave."
"Fuck your mother's bullshit!"
Xu Jianfang lunged wildly, trying to tear at the other man, but was stopped by two burly security guards, who grabbed him by the collar, lifted him up, and walked towards the bank entrance.
As the bank's automatic doors opened, Xu Jianfang, along with his luggage, was directly thrown out, falling embarrassingly to the ground. Behind him, the dragged Xu Wenjie met the same fate.
Many people on the street gathered around, wondering what had happened.
Looking at the schadenfreude on the faces of the onlookers, Xu Jianfang and Xu Wenjie's mood plummeted to rock bottom; all their hope and expectations shattered at this moment.
Just then, his phone suddenly rang.
Xu Jianfang nervously picked it up and saw it was a message from an unknown number: "I hope you're satisfied with this parting gift."
!!!
Xu Jianfang held his phone, his entire being like a soul-drained shell, frozen in place.
Who... did it?
His mind suddenly thought of that young man named Lu Feng, and the phrase "As you wish" echoed repeatedly in his brain. Extreme fear and despair gripped his throat like an icy hand.
"It's him... it must be him!!" The color drained from Xu Jianfang's face, and his body trembled violently like a sieve!
It was Lu Feng! It was that devil!! How did he know!? How could he... he...
Xu Jianfang despairingly realized he didn't even know how he lost... It was over.
Completely and utterly over.
The money was gone, the family was gone, and the escape route was gone.
What awaited him was a global manhunt and a lifetime of destitution, hiding and fleeing.
His mind was blank; he didn't know what to do next, or what else he could do... In Kyoto, in a VIP ward at Aikang Hospital.
In contrast to the tragic despair of Xu Jianfang and his son, although the atmosphere here was quiet, everyone's faces showed a hint of relief.
After the economic investigation police briefly questioned Old Master Xu, they immediately stated that an arrest warrant would be issued, and they would collaborate with various overseas parties to apprehend Xu Jianfang, before slowly leaving.
From Old Master Xu's admission to the hospital to his awakening and recovery, only about seven or eight hours had passed. Members of the Xu Family, upon hearing the news, had flown back from all over the world to visit him.
Many people stood in the ward. Some expressed genuine concern, while others spoke with a probing and feigned sincerity.
Everyone very tacitly avoided mentioning Xu Jianfang's family, even those who had been on good terms with them.
Old Master Xu chatted casually with these people in a faint tone.
Just then, the doctor walked in with the latest physical reports, his face full of pleasant surprise and admiration, saying, "Old Master Xu's body is rapidly recovering. It's a miracle, truly a miracle. No patient has ever woken up so quickly from such a dangerous situation."
"Brain function is also unaffected; damaged neurons have actually repaired and reconnected during sleep, as if receiving some kind of stimulation. Furthermore, according to the report, Old Master Xu's body, while in a coma, stimulated the pituitary gland to secrete more growth hormone and endorphins, significantly accelerating the natural healing process, and even activating certain dormant stem cells, which has also led to recovery beyond expectations."
The doctor looked at Xu Bang in shock, saying, "This... cannot be explained by common sense!"
Hearing this, many people breathed a sigh of relief. Although they didn't understand all the professional terms, the overall improvement was what mattered.
Old Master Xu was, after all, the stabilizing force of the Xu Family. With him, the Xu Family was safe. If anything happened to him... in the current state of the Xu Family's generational gap, it would definitely decline rapidly.
Old Master Xu's face was ruddy, and his eyes were clear. Others might not know what had happened, but he was perfectly clear.
It must be related to that... Mr. Lu he met in his coma.
At this thought, he looked at Xu Ting, who was standing by the bedside, and slowly said, "Tingting, tell me about what happened before."
Xu Ting nodded, then briefly recounted the events that had occurred, including what she encountered at the auction, how Xu Jianfang had coerced her, and Lu Feng's crucial phone call at the most critical moment.
Although she still found it incredible, the facts were right before her eyes.
After listening, Old Master Xu's eyes flashed with a deep sense of awe and understanding.
He looked at Xiao Dao, who stood like a spear behind Xu Ting, and asked with unprecedented politeness, "This Xiao Dao... was he also sent by Mr. Lu to protect Tingting?"
Xiao Dao nodded slightly, concisely stating, "Yes, I am ordered to protect Chairwoman Xu's safety."
Old Master Xu was immediately filled with emotion, struggling to sit up straighter: "Mr. Lu's great kindness... this old man... is deeply grateful! Once this old man's health is a little better, I will personally visit to express my thanks!"
