Chapter 2467

And today's big brawl also shook the political circles of Yanbei Province. The bigwigs in Yanbei Province and Yanzhong City all learned about what happened today through various channels.

What kind of existence was the Guangda Trading Company in Yanzhong City? Although nominally only Lu Guojun stood out, everyone knew that this company had many hidden shareholders. These shareholders included some bigwigs in Yanbei Province and even the capital. Some even said that the power of this Guangda Trading Company was even greater than the government.

For some things that the government couldn't handle, if you could find the Guangda Trading Company to help, they could solve it for you immediately.

Therefore, the Guangda Trading Company had always been very mysterious and basically no one in Yanzhong City dared to provoke them. But today, the Guangda Trading Company had suffered a setback, and such a thorough one at that. Their general manager had been beaten until his face was a mess, and Lu Guojun had obediently handed over five people and even apologized to the other party.

This made many people exclaim: Is Yanzhong City about to change?

If it were just an ordinary brawl, it would be one thing, but this Guangda Trading Company affected the entire political scene of Yanbei Province. The brawl that happened here was simply like an earthquake.

That evening, Lu Guojun was summoned home by a phone call from Lu Keren. Lu Guojun also knew why Lu Keren was looking for him. He didn't dare to disobey and rushed home immediately after receiving the call.

Lu Keren was a man who looked very refined. He wore gold-rimmed glasses and had his hair combed into a smooth, slicked-back style. In fact, at his age, his hair should have been gray, but he always dyed it jet black, which made him look several years younger without losing his steady demeanor.

In his youth, Lu Keren was quite a handsome man; otherwise, his wife Wan Caiqiong, who came from a revolutionary family, wouldn't have taken a fancy to him and insisted on marrying him.

In his many years of official life, Lu Keren had also learned to hide his emotions. No matter when, he never showed his feelings on his face. Therefore, seeing his son return, he didn't immediately ask questions anxiously, but instead raised his hand to signal his son to sit down.

Lu Guojun sat down in front of his father. Although his father didn't ask any questions and there was no displeased expression on his face, Lu Guojun was still anxious in his heart. The person he feared most was Lu Keren. Lu Keren was too gloomy; one couldn't tell what he was thinking from the surface at all. Even though Lu Guojun was his son, he couldn't grasp his temperament.

Such a person was indeed very terrifying.

After Lu Guojun sat down, Lu Keren instead picked up his teacup and started drinking tea, enjoying it thoroughly. However, there really was good tea in his cup—top-grade Dahongpao.

Lu Keren didn't ask any questions for a long time, and Lu Guojun couldn't hold his composure. He stammered and opened his mouth, saying, "Dad, the company has run into trouble."

Lu Keren put down his teacup and asked slowly, "Are you talking about the fact that you mobilized hundreds of people to go to the company to fight today? You, Young Master Lu, are quite impressive. You can mobilize hundreds of people at once and even stand off against the Public Security Bureau's riot squad. If I had known you had this kind of ability, I should have sent you to the front lines at Laoshan. Maybe our family could have produced a general!"

This was Lu Keren's style of speaking. Even to his own son, he liked to use this sarcastic tone, as if only this could demonstrate his supreme intelligence.

What Lu Guojun feared most was him speaking like this; it made his hands tremble the moment he heard it. In his youth, there were too many such memories that he couldn't bear to look back on. So, after he grew up, he couldn't wait to get married and leave home, living on his own so he wouldn't have to face his father every day. This made him let out a long sigh of relief, feeling that he was liberated.

Lu Guojun said, "Dad, you don't know, it was just too infuriating at the time. They even hit Xiaoli."

Lu Keren said, "Then you should have hit back. Why didn't you hit back? What was the final result?"

Lu Guojun said, "This really isn't my fault. How was I supposed to know their background was so solid?"

Lu Keren had only heard the surface of the incident and didn't know the inside story. Lu Guojun didn't dare to casually reveal Yu Ruizhi's background either, so Lu Keren didn't know what Yu Ruizhi's identity was, and he didn't even know Yu Ruizhi's name.

Lu Keren said, "Oh, then what is his background?"

Lu Guojun was talking to his father in the study, while his mother, Wan Caiqiong, was watching TV in the living room. She didn't know what her son had done today.

Lu Guojun looked at his mother, who was wiping away tears in the living room. Wan Caiqiong loved those tragic Taiwanese soap operas the most and could watch them from morning till night. She would borrow the discs and watch them on a CD player. While watching, she would wipe away tears and become immersed in the plot, unable to extricate herself.

Seeing his mother so engrossed, Lu Guojun lowered his voice and said to his father, "That person is named Yu Ruizhi. He is the eldest grandson of Elder Yu."

Even though Lu Keren had always been very steady, never showing his emotions, and appearing to have everything under control, he was still shocked when he heard the name Elder Yu: "What did you say? Is what you said true?"

Lu Guojun said, "Of course it's true. This can't be wrong. Qi Canghai told me."

Lu Keren picked up his teacup and took another large gulp of tea, only then barely calming his shocked emotions. He said, "I was wondering, Qi Canghai isn't such an impulsive person. How could he mobilize the riot squad to stand off against you? So that's how it is. That makes sense."

With Lu Keren's status, he naturally knew Qi Canghai's background. Qi Canghai's father was once Elder Yu's personal bodyguard. Such a background was naturally something the bigwigs in Yanbei Province couldn't ignore. Therefore, although Qi Canghai's official position in Yanbei Province wasn't high, everyone treated him with courtesy when they saw him.

Since Qi Canghai had such an identity, his actions were naturally to protect the descendants of the Yu family. If he couldn't even do this in Yanzhong City, he would probably be beaten to death by his father when he went back.

Lu Guojun said, "Exactly. He is the eldest grandson of the Yu family, so I definitely had to yield to him."

Lu Keren said, "Then tell me, why did he go to your company to beat people up? If he was being unreasonable, then I have to have a word with the Yu family. Even if it is the Yu family, they can't bully people like this, right?"

Although Lu Keren knew that a conflict had occurred at the Guangda Trading Company today, he still didn't know the cause and effect of the incident very clearly. How could he know that Yu Ruizhi was standing up for the beaten Accountant Xu? There were simply too many twists and turns in this.

Lu Guojun immediately became hesitant. Lu Keren said, "Are you hiding something from me? Tell me quickly."

Lu Guojun had no choice but to say to his father, "Dad, didn't that Su Xinghui go to the Yanfang Group and find an accounting firm to audit the Yanfang Group's accounts?"

Lu Keren did know about this matter. He nodded and said, "Yes, there is such a thing. You told me about it."

Lu Guojun said, "Today, two people from that accounting firm went to our company to investigate and collect evidence, investigating some of our business dealings with the Yanfang Group. This kind of thing definitely couldn't be allowed to be investigated clearly, so I..."
