The unwavering certainty in Lu Jiuge's words was impossible to conceal.

Zheng Wutong looked at him, and a sense of trust inexplicably arose in her heart:

"You little rascal, Morgan has cornered you at your doorstep, and instead of panicking, you're thinking of sneaking into his territory to steal his meat. Most people don't have that kind of guts."

"Grandpa is joking. It's not about stealing meat; it's an opportunity that should have been mine, and I have to seize it."

Lu Jiuge's tone was full of confidence.

Zheng Dongrong sat to the side and couldn't help but sigh:

"If it were me in this situation, being manipulated by Morgan like this, I would have been so worried that I couldn't sleep, only thinking about how to protect my family business in Hong Kong."

"You're something else; instead of thinking about how to protect yourself, all you're thinking about is how to attack."

"Dad, Ninth Brother has never been afraid of these things."

Zheng Shuyi linked arms with Lu Jiuge, her tone firm:

"Throughout this journey, he never considered turning back, much less preserving these plans."

Zheng Wutong glanced at his granddaughter, who was blindly confident in Lu Jiuge, waved his hand, and his tone became a bit more serious:

"Xiao Lu, the Zheng family can't help you with anything else, but you can rest assured about their stronghold in Hong Kong."

"With us here, no one can touch the land of Kai Tak and your Qianxing Capital."

"You just go to America and do your thing. We'll take care of things at home, so don't worry about us."

"Thank you, Grandpa Xie."

Lu Jiuge stood up, her tone sincere.

"Don't just thank me, remember what I said."

Zheng Dongrong stood up and patted him on the shoulder:

"The Morgans have no morals. If you really encounter an insurmountable obstacle, don't force yourself to. You can lose profits, but you must come back safe and sound."

"Uncle Zheng, I understand."

Lu Jiuge nodded emphatically, looked at Zheng Shuyi beside her, and softened her voice:

"I have a family, Shuyi, and an unborn child. I would never joke with my own life."

"Just keep it in mind."

Zheng Wutong stood up:

"Alright, you two should head back early and get some rest before you leave."

……

After leaving the Zheng family's old house and returning to the Deep Water Bay villa, Lu Jiuge didn't go to the company for four consecutive days.

Zheng Shuyi didn't go to the company either, and stayed with Lu Jiuge the whole time.

Seeing his bloodshot eyes from staying up all night, Zheng Shuyi comforted him with heartache:

"Ninth Brother, you've been working hard for days, take a break."

Lu Jiuge looked up and rubbed her temples:

"It's alright. Let's sort things out in the US first, so we don't end up in a mess when we get there."

"What exactly are you going over there to do?"

Zheng Shuyi sat down next to him, looking at the computer screen with curiosity:

"I keep hearing you talk about the subprime crisis; it sounds very dangerous."

"It's a crisis, but also an opportunity."

Lu Jiuge smiled and pinched her cheek:

"Once we return from the United States, we will not only be able to completely break free from Morgan, but also expand our business globally, and our capital pool could potentially increase a hundredfold."

"Is it really that amazing?"

Zheng Shuyi looked up and stared at Lu Jiuge.

"Um."

Lu Jiuge nodded, but secretly she was calculating that this trip to the United States would not be enough with just wisdom and capital; she would need the ability to protect herself.

At night, after washing up, Zheng Shuyi leaned against the headboard and flipped through parenting books.

Lu Jiuge sat on the living room sofa, but her consciousness was completely immersed in the system interface.

On the system panel, which I hadn't looked at for a long time, the number of positive faith points had reached a staggering one hundred million.

Without the slightest hesitation, he chose to use all of them.

The next second, a warm current suddenly exploded in my mind, instantly spreading throughout my body. My skin turned bright red at a visible speed, and I couldn't help but cry out.

"Ah! Ninth Brother! What's wrong!"

Zheng Shuyi, who rushed to the living room upon hearing the noise, turned pale with fright and immediately grabbed her phone to call for an ambulance.

"I'll call the doctor right away!"

"Don't panic! Shuyi, hang up the phone, I'm fine!"

Lu Jiuge grasped her hand, her voice weak:

"It's just a special situation, it'll be fine in a little while, please don't call."

"But you're all red, it's scary..."

Zheng Shuyi was almost in tears, clutching his hand tightly and refusing to let go.

"Trust me, okay?"

Despite the pain in her body, Lu Jiuge looked at her with a determined gaze.

Zheng Shuyi looked into his eyes, bit her lip, and finally put down her phone.

"If you feel unwell, you must tell me, I..."

"it is good."

Lu Jiuge closed her eyes, letting the warm current wash over her limbs and bones.

It took more than two hours for the blush on my body to slowly fade and for my tense body to completely relax.

He slowly opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them, and his aura completely changed.

"Ninth Brother! Are you alright?"

Seeing Lu Jiuge open his eyes, Zheng Shuyi nervously looked him up and down.

"I'm fine now, in fact, I'm perfectly alright."

Lu Jiuge smiled, got up, and walked into the courtyard. Zheng Shuyi followed behind, both curious and worried.

In the corner of the yard, there was a solid steel ingot left over from a previous renovation, weighing over 100 kilograms.

Lu Jiuge walked to the steel ingot and grabbed the edge with one hand.

"Ninth Brother, don't touch it! It's heavy, be careful not to strain your back!"

Just as Zheng Shuyi was about to step forward, she saw Lu Jiuge casually raise his hand and steadily lift the hundred-kilogram steel ingot with one hand.

Zheng Shuyi was completely stunned, her mouth slightly open, unable to speak for a long time.

Lu Jiuge put down the steel ingot, raised her hand and waved it, her fingertips precisely catching a flying insect that flew past her eyes. The movement was so fast that it was almost invisible.

"Oh my god, Ninth Brother, you..."

Zheng Shuyi stammered for a long time, unable to speak. Lu Jiuge looked at her and said excitedly:

"You don't need to worry about me anymore."

Lu Jiuge held Zheng Shuyi's hand:

"No matter what happens, I can protect myself, and I can protect you and the children."

"What exactly is going on?"

Zheng Shuyi asked blankly.

"It was a pill my master gave me, and I never expected it to actually work!"

Lu Jiuge smiled, offered no explanation, and hugged her tightly.

"Don't worry, I'll be back. I'll definitely bring back good news from this trip to the beautiful country."

Zheng Shuyi stared at Lu Jiuge, half believing and half doubting his words.

However, she didn't press further, but nodded emphatically:

"Hmm, now that I've witnessed your strength firsthand, I feel much more at ease!"

……

After spending a tender night with Zheng Shuyi, Lu Jiuge completed all the formalities for her trip to the United States the next day.

After calling a meeting with all the senior executives of Qianxing Capital, he officially began his trip to the United States.

Lu Jiuge did not bring any assistants or bodyguards with her to the United States this time.

They did not notify Qianxing's core team to accompany them, and all preparations were carried out in an extremely low-key manner.

He even deliberately erased any trace of his upcoming trip to the United States in order to minimize his presence and avoid attracting any unnecessary attention, taking only Zheng Liang with him.

On the day of departure, Zheng Shuyi and Zheng Dongrong personally drove Lu Jiuge to Hong Kong International Airport.

There was no grand farewell ceremony, only simple words of advice.

"Be careful in everything you do once you arrive in the United States."

Zheng Shuyi straightened his collar, her voice filled with reluctance.

"Wait for me to come back."

Lu Jiuge hugged her, then led Zheng Liang through the security checkpoint and boarded a flight to New York.

Inside the first-class cabin, there were few passengers. Lu Jiuge sat by the window, ignoring Zheng Liang who was flirting with a foreign girl next to her, and stared out the window into deep thought.

He knew very well that Morgan Stanley's elaborate efforts to get him there were definitely not just for a simple accountability talk.

What they want is complete control, to turn Qianxing Capital into a thorn in the side of China.

Morgan Stanley viewed Lu Jiuge as a pawn, an obedient puppet.

Having figured all this out, Lu Jiuge's lips curled into a cold smile:

"Trying to control me? You bunch of high and mighty Wall Street tycoons have miscalculated!"
