Returning to his senior year of high school, he went all in and made billions by buying at the botto

"Hua Lu left Kyoto, and so did you."

A simple sentence sent a jolt through everyone present.

Lu You knelt on the ground, stunned.

Lu Cheng'an's expression suddenly changed.

He originally thought that if his son relinquished his company position, Hua Lu settled the debts, and then went to the Wen family to apologize, there might still be room for reconciliation.

But Chen Mo's words severed Hua Lu's roots in Kyoto.

"Mr. Chen..."

Lu Cheng'an spoke with difficulty.

"I will never protect Lu You if he does something wrong."

"Kehualu has been operating for more than ten years and still has several hundred employees."

"They are all innocent."

Chen Mo looked at him.

"Three months."

"Settle all receivables and overdue interest of Zhixing Digital Technology, complete the handover of existing projects, and relocate the company headquarters and main business."

"Employees who are willing to leave with the company will be provided with resettlement by Hualu."

Those who are unwilling to leave will be compensated in accordance with the law.

"As for Lu You, you have three days to leave Kyoto. You are not allowed to contact Zhi Xia and her family in any way afterward."

Lu You suddenly raised his head.

"Mr. Chen, I've already apologized!"

"Zhi Xia wasn't actually harmed, so why...?"

"No actual harm was suffered?"

Chen Mo interrupted him.

"Lu You, I will only give you this one chance."

Lu Cheng'an stopped Lu You from speaking again.

He looked at Xie Chongyue standing to the side.

Xie Chongyue immediately said, "If you leave Kyoto, Guoxin will still give you some dignity."

"Mr. Lu, don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit."

"I see."

Lu Cheng'an closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he seemed to have aged considerably.

"Hua Lu will complete the relocation within three months."

Lu You looked at his father in disbelief.

"dad!"

"Shut up!"

Lu Chengan suddenly turned around.

"You think you still have the right to bargain?"

"If Hualu doesn't leave, starting tomorrow, Guoxin's audit, supply chain verification, and related-party transaction investigation will all begin."

"Can that supplier you put in the company withstand scrutiny?"

"Can your withholding of payments from Zhixing Digital Technology withstand scrutiny?"

"Do you want to go to jail?!"

Lu You completely lost his voice.

Lu Cheng'an knew that since Chen Mo had spoken up, it was time to act.

If Hua Lu voluntarily leaves Kyoto, he still has a chance to retain his team, clients, and some business.

If he shows even the slightest dissatisfaction, he will be in deep trouble if the Guangguoxin Group takes action against him.

Chen Mo didn't look at them again.

"Go out."

"Don't disturb my meal with Zhixia here."

Lu You swayed slightly.

This statement is more offensive than any insult.

He carefully changed into a bespoke suit, wore a watch worth hundreds of thousands of yuan, and arrived at the State Guest House full of anticipation.

Now, however, they don't even have the right to stay in this private room.

Lu Chengan pulled him up from the ground.

"We'll take our leave now."

Chen Mo picked up his teacup without trying to stop him.

Wen Zhixia did not look at Lu You again.

Only after the door to the private room closed did she slowly loosen her tightly clenched fingers.

Chen Mo noticed the coolness in her palm and held her hand again.

"Do you think the punishment was too harsh?"

"no."

Wen Zhixia gently shook her head.

"If we forgive him today, he'll only think that kneeling and apologizing will get him another chance."

"I sympathize with the innocent employees of Hualu, but I will not allow myself and my family to continue to face Lu You in order to please them."

She paused for a moment and looked at Chen Mo intently.

Chen Mo smiled and nodded. Wen Zhixia moved closer, and the two intertwined their fingers.

Her father's humble plea, the company's tight cash flow, and Lu You's constant pressure—all these things that had kept her up at night for days were completely resolved with just one dinner.

Throughout the entire conversation, Chen Mo only uttered one sentence.

Hua Lu then prepared to leave Kyoto.

Only at this moment did Wen Zhixia truly realize the heights the young man beside her had reached.

And she understood more clearly than ever that choosing to stay by the side of such a radiant man meant that she had to do far more than just hide under his wing and passively accept his protection.

Sitting opposite, Xie Chongyue took in the expressions and tacit understanding between the two, picked up his teacup and laughed loudly, "Miss Wen's clarity and temperament are rare. President Chen has excellent taste."

Wen Zhixia blushed slightly and gracefully raised her teacup.

"You flatter me, Chairman Xie."

The door to the private room opened again.

The waiter first removed the two sets of tableware belonging to the Lu family father and son, and then placed the dishes one by one on the round table.

The tense atmosphere gradually dissipated.

Chen Mo ladled a bowl of soup for Wen Zhixia and placed it in front of her.

"I haven't eaten anything all night, let's eat first."

Wen Zhixia looked at the soup in front of her, then at Chen Mo, a gentle smile appearing in her eyes.

"it is good."

Outside the window, the lights of Kyoto's long streets stretched endlessly.

The Lu family's car was driving away from the State Guest House in complete silence.

Inside the private room, the three people sat down again.

Enjoyed talking.
