In the reception room of the Chu Family Manor in the south of the city.

An old man with gray hair and a hunched back slowly walked in, leaning on a cane. His face was deeply lined with wrinkles, but his cloudy eyes revealed a sinister aura.

As soon as he stepped across the threshold, he saw Chu Tiankuo standing by the window, his face ashen and his shoulders trembling slightly.

The old man quickly forced a smile, his voice dry and strained: "Young Master Chu, what's troubling you? Judging from your expression, you seem to have been angered by someone."

Chu Tiankuo turned around abruptly, pointed at the old man's nose, and said in a harsh and aggressive tone, "Old Mo, my father used to praise your martial arts skills, saying you were among the top five in Sheng'an. Now it seems that those words were a bit exaggerated?"

Old Mo's smile faded slightly, and his eyes darkened: "Young Master Chu, this old man has been in Sheng'an for thirty years. What haven't I seen? Are you... looking down on my abilities?"

Chu Tiankuo angrily slammed his hand on the flower stand next to him: "Don't like it? Of course I don't like it!"

"Didn't you say last time that you shattered that kid's meridians with one palm, so even if he didn't die, he'd be paralyzed?"

"But I saw him with my own eyes at the mall yesterday. He was more energetic than anyone else, and he was just wandering around like nothing was wrong!"

Old Mo's cloudy eyes suddenly narrowed, and after two seconds, he slowly shook his head: "Impossible. That kid took my full-force palm strike, his meridians were all severed. He can't even stand, let alone jump. How could he be running around in the streets?"

"How could it be fake?"

Chu Tiankuo gritted his teeth, his eyes bloodshot. "I saw it with my own eyes, why would I lie to you?"

"That bastard Lu Yunzhou is not only alive, but he looks even more robust than before. Do you think he didn't even use his full strength back then?"

Chu Tiankuo's eyes were filled with suspicion and anger.

The smile on Old Mo's face vanished completely, and his expression turned gloomy.

He remained silent for a while before speaking slowly: "This kid is incredibly resilient; he actually withstood my palm strike."

"But Young Master Chu, rest assured, since he is still alive, I will personally save his life for you and never let him get in your way again."

"Mr. Mo, I hope you won't make a mistake this time. I don't want to see that brat Lu Yunzhou swaggering around in front of me again in Sheng'an."

Chu Tiankuo's voice was as cold as ice.

"Rest assured, this time, I will not fail."

Old Mo's lips curled into a sinister smile. Although his face was still all smiles, the chill in his eyes sent shivers down one's spine.

The next morning.

Lu Yunzhou arrived at the Fengming Group building.

Early in the morning, Feng Qianyi called him and asked him to come to the company.

Fengming Group occupies an entire skyscraper on its own, its glass curtain wall gleaming, making it one of the landmark buildings in Sheng'an City.

Another characteristic of Fengming Group is that it has a particularly large number of female employees, with more than 60% being women.

Standing at the entrance of the building, Lu Yunzhou saw waves of exquisitely dressed and elegant women entering the building, chatting and laughing in twos and threes.

They either wore smart business suits that accentuated their slender figures, or gentle dresses with simple blazers over them, looking both elegant and sophisticated.

That's why Fengming Group has become a place that countless men desperately want to get into.

Lu Yunzhou straightened his clothes and prepared to walk into the building.

The next moment, a head popped out of the security booth, and someone shouted impatiently, "Hey, hey, stop right there! Who are you? Do you know where you are? Register before you come in!"

Helpless, Lu Yunzhou could only turn around and walk into the security booth.

The security guard casually tossed a worn-out registration book in front of him, saying dismissively, "Hurry up and write it down. Write down your name, contact information, and who you're looking for."

Lu Yunzhou didn't say much, picked up a pen, and quickly wrote down his information.

In the "Who to Find" section, it simply said "President Feng, Feng Qianyi".

"It's finished."

He handed the register back.

The security guard, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, casually picked up the registration book and glanced at it.

But when he saw the name in the "person he was looking for" column, he suddenly coughed, his face turning red, clearly choked by the smoke.

"Cough cough cough... Wait, wait!"

The security guard quickly waved his hand.

"Is there anything else?"

Lu Yunzhou looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Get out of here right now, you brat!"

The security guard suddenly stood up, even with a hint of reprimand.

Lu Yunzhou frowned, even more puzzled: "Why? I've already registered."

"Kid, who are you trying to fool?"

The security guard sneered, his eyes full of mockery.

"With so many people in Fengming Group, if you just wrote down any department or the name of an ordinary employee, I might let you in. But look at who you wrote down!"

"Feng Qianyi! That's the chairman of our Fengming Group. You should take a good look at yourself in the mirror. Do you even deserve to be seen by Chairman Feng?"

Lu Yunzhou said calmly, "I did come to see Feng Qianyi, and she personally called me and asked me to come."

"Please, look at yourself dressed like that!"

The security guard looked Lu Yunzhou up and down, his eyes filled with even more mockery.

"Countless people come to see President Feng every day; aren't they all driving luxury cars and wearing gold and silver?"

"They can't even get through this gate. And look at you, dressed in cheap clothes from street vendors, without a single decent brand name, looking utterly poor. And you dare say that Boss Feng sent you?"

"Get out of here and stop wasting my time!"

Lu Yunzhou subconsciously looked down at his clothes.

Clean and tidy, simple and elegant, but without any gold or silver jewelry or designer brands, it was by no means poor.

"Get out of here, or I'll get physical!"

The security guard waved his hand impatiently, a fierce look on his face.

Lu Yunzhou had a headache, so he took out his phone and sent a message to Feng Qianyi: The security guard downstairs stopped me and wouldn't let me in.

Not long after, Feng Qianyi replied with a short message: "Find your own way, I'm busy."

Looking at the message, Lu Yunzhou shook his head helplessly.

This Feng Qianyi really shows no mercy whatsoever.

Helpless, he turned to look at the still impatient security guard, his eyes darkening, and walked straight past him.

Before the security guard could react, Lu Yunzhou raised his hand and lightly chopped at the back of his neck.

The security guard didn't even utter a sound; his eyes rolled back, and he immediately passed out.

Looking at the unconscious security guard, Lu Yunzhou murmured softly, "I'm sorry, this is the only way."

After dealing with the security guards, Lu Yunzhou successfully entered the lobby of Fengming Group.

The lobby is spacious and bright, luxuriously decorated, and filled with smartly dressed employees.

He walked straight to the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor.

Feng Qianyi's office is on the top floor.

The elevator ran smoothly and quickly reached the top floor.

Lu Yunzhou stepped out of the elevator and arrived at Feng Qianyi's office.

Before he could speak, the female assistant at the door spoke first, her tone tinged with surprise: "Sir, who are you?"

"President Feng is looking for me."

Lu Yunzhou spoke in a flat tone.

The female assistant frowned and asked again, "Who are you? President Feng didn't tell me anyone was coming."

"Lu Yunzhou, President Feng should have mentioned me to you."

Lu Yunzhou said.

The female assistant suddenly realized and immediately put on a polite smile: "Oh, it's Mr. Lu. I'm so sorry, I didn't realize it at first. Please come in, Ms. Feng is waiting for you inside."

Lu Yunzhou thought to himself that this female assistant was quite cautious. It seemed that there were indeed quite a few people who came to see Feng Qianyi, and they were all a mixed bag.

Lu Yunzhou pushed open the door and walked into the office.
