8: 8. Forced Dream

Xu Ting had come to clean up the mess and find a breakthrough. She had expected the construction workers to be more restrained under the circumstances, but she didn't expect them to resort to violence. The boy looked to be only in his teens, didn't he?

If such an incident happened again, the reputation of her Donghai Group would be completely ruined!

Manager Wang was startled by her cold gaze and quickly lowered his hand.

"Chairwoman Xu... Xu... a misunderstanding..."

Behind them, a man in a suit, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and looking refined, stepped out of the Mercedes. He walked slowly towards them and said gently, "Cousin, this is Manager Wang from Tiangong Construction, he is our partner. Manager Wang is usually a good person; there must have been some misunderstanding just now."

Xu Wenjie, the current General Manager of Donghai Group, was also Xu Ting's cousin.

Seeing the other party speak up for him, Manager Wang felt as if he had been granted a great pardon and quickly seized the opportunity to say, "Yes, yes, General Manager Xu is right, it's a misunderstanding. We are currently paying salaries, and everything is going very well."

Xu Ting glanced at Xu Wenjie and said coldly, "General Manager Xu, during working hours, please address me by my title."

Xu Wenjie smiled and readily complied, "Yes, Chairwoman Xu."

Seeing that the situation did not escalate, Xu Ting relented. She looked at Lu Feng and said in a gentler tone, "Little brother, don't be afraid. With me here, they won't dare to touch you."

After speaking, she gave Manager Wang a cold stare and then walked straight into the construction site.

Manager Wang's face turned green. Looking at Lu Feng, he felt incredibly frustrated; he had almost ruined things again because of him! This guy was a jinx!

He ignored Lu Feng, turned around to thank Xu Wenjie gratefully, and then walked aside to call his boss.

After all, both the Chairwoman and the General Manager of the client were on site; a situation of this level was beyond his handling, and he needed their boss to step in.

Lu Feng, in the crowd, had been observing Xu Ting.

This person seemed good, but before giving her the USB drive, he had to investigate her first.

Lu Feng didn't have the patience to wait for her to fall asleep at night. He went to a chair in the nearby workers' rest area and focused his gaze on Xu Ting.

Forced Dream! Activate!

The next second, a scream suddenly erupted from over there. The originally imposing Chairwoman Xu swayed and began to fall sideways. If her secretary hadn't quickly caught her, Xu Ting would have definitely fallen by the roadside.

"The Chairwoman has fainted! Call an ambulance quickly!" the secretary shouted loudly.

A hint of joy appeared on Xu Wenjie's face, which immediately turned into worry as he said, "Is it heatstroke? Quickly send her to the hospital, it's right across the street!!"

The scene was chaotic. Xu Ting was put into the car, and the Mercedes quickly drove off.

In a corner unnoticed by everyone, Lu Feng sat on a chair with his arms crossed, head bowed as if in thought.

At this moment, he had already invaded Xu Ting's dream.

Although the Forced Dream ability was extraordinary, it currently had a slight flaw: because it forced the target to fall asleep, the dream would appear somewhat fragmented... The scene that met his eyes was inside an antique tea room, with sandalwood incense wafting.

At the head of the table sat a white-haired old man in a Tang suit, his eyes half-closed, looking as if he were asleep.

Next to the old man stood a middle-aged man, who said helplessly, "Xiao Ting, you can't be so willful."

Xu Ting ignored him and looked at the old man, saying, "Grandpa, I don't want to marry into the Chen Family. I didn't study so much just to get married."

Before the old man could speak, the middle-aged man interjected, "Xiao Ting, the Chen Family and ours are old family friends, a perfect match. The young master of the Chen Family is also quite handsome; you wouldn't be wronged if you married him. Besides, think about it, if your father were still alive, he would surely want you to marry well."

Hearing this, Xu Ting was not moved; instead, she said coldly, "Second Uncle, after my father passed away, you temporarily took over his position and managed his company. Now you're so eager to marry me off. What? Do you want to swallow all the shares of my family?"

Xu Jianfang was not angry; instead, he sighed and said, "Xiao Ting, even if you don't want to get married, you don't have to speak so ill of your Second Uncle. I'm just telling you from my experience that women are not suitable for business; getting married brings stability."

"Second Uncle, your intentions are obvious."

The old man at the head of the table coughed, interrupting their argument. He said calmly, "Alright, stop arguing. Tingting, if you want to take over your father's business, then go ahead. No one can take those shares. However, Grandpa hopes you will seriously consider the Chen Family. A marriage alliance between the two families would benefit both of us."

Xu Ting shook her head and simply said, "Grandpa, I will never marry in this lifetime. I will use my own methods to make the Xu Family glorious, but it will never be through a marriage alliance."

The scene twisted, like a reflection in water. In the blink of an eye, Lu Feng was already on a plane, which appeared to be a private jet, with only Xu Ting and her secretary in the entire cabin.

Xu Ting continuously flipped through the documents of Donghai Group.

The secretary next to her handed over a tablet, saying worriedly, "Chairwoman Xu, ever since your father passed away, Donghai Group has been taken over by Second Master Xu. He transferred his son, Xu Wenjie, to the position of General Manager, and now he dominates the company. Some old employees have reported that the internal structure has long been hollowed out by them... After you arrive, a cleanup will be unavoidable, but..."

Xu Ting rubbed her temples and sighed, "But it's not that simple. This is a tough battle. My father passed away so many years ago, his influence is long gone, and with Xu Wenjie there, he will definitely not let me have an easy time."

The secretary was silent. She felt that Chairwoman Xu's situation was really bad.

With a sigh, the dream flickered again.

A little girl rode on her father's shoulders, her laughter like bells: "Daddy, I want to be a Chairwoman too someday, to help you manage!"

"Good, good, Daddy's position will be saved for Tingting..." The man dotingly ruffled her face.

"Buzz buzz buzz—"

The dream was already unstable, and Lu Feng waved his hand, breaking it.

In the corner, Lu Feng looked up, casually checking the time; only a few minutes had passed.

A slight smile played on his lips, feeling confident.

He admired this woman; she had courage and was preparing to reclaim her father's company with a strong stance. In that case, this USB drive would be a timely help!

How to give it to her while maximizing his own benefits, whether it was her connections or money... he wanted them all.

Lu Feng thought for a moment, then got up and walked towards the hospital.

Upon arriving at the hospital, after asking a nurse about the location of Xu Ting's group, he slowly took the elevator to the top floor of the inpatient department... At the door of a high-class hospital room in the inpatient department, Xu Wenjie stood with his hands behind his back, his expression unreadable as he looked at the door.

Beside him, Manager Wang and Zhu He, the newly arrived boss of Tiangong Construction, both fawned over him with concern, saying, "I wonder how Chairwoman Xu is doing? General Manager Xu, I know a very skilled doctor; why don't we transfer her?"

Xu Wenjie said calmly, "No need. The doctor said it seems to be due to overwork and irregular diet, nothing serious. She just needs some IV fluids and rest."

"Ding!"

Just as he was speaking, the elevator door suddenly opened.

The three men were stunned to see Lu Feng emerge, their brows slightly furrowed. Manager Wang, in particular, was furious. Why was this guy haunting them?

"What are you doing here? Is this a place you can come to? Get out!" Manager Wang walked over, cursing.

Lu Feng smiled, "I have something to discuss with Chairwoman Xu."

Manager Wang sneered, "You? A bricklayer like you? You don't deserve it!"

Zhu He waved his hand, "Xiao Wang, chase him away. Don't let him be an eyesore here."

"Yes, General Manager Zhu."

Just then, Lu Feng suddenly spoke, "What? Afraid your shady dealings will be exposed?"

Swish!

Lu Feng's words were like a knife, directly piercing the chests of the three men.
