Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

Chapter 1569  The Fifth Person

Jiang Yang's cellphone interrupted the conversation with its insistent ringtone.

"Don't tell me you have to go back to the hospital," An Tian remarked, a hint of disappointment in his voice.

"If that's the case, I can't help it. As a doctor your should know it better," Jiang Yang replied, already reaching for his phone. Glancing at the caller ID with a smile, he assured An Tian, "Umm, looks like you're stuck with me a bit longer." Answering the call, he stepped away to go outside.

With Jiang Yang's departure, the drawing room was left with only the Lu brothers, An Tian, and two stubborn young men, alongside their host, Ming Rusheng.

"I've heard Chairman Lu is gearing up for significant changes within the company," Ming Rusheng remarked, breaking the silence.

"You heard correctly," Lu Lijun confirmed with a nod.

"With the aggressive tactics of the Magnus Group attempting to sabotage Lu Corporation this time, I can only assume Chairman Lu is preparing for a strategic response," Ming Rusheng continued.

Lu Lijun looked back at Ming Rusheng, "In the past when they entered here, other than the Song industries, Mings also aided to their efforts against the Lu Corporations." n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Ming Rushing didn't it, "Afterward, we significantly scaled back our collaborations with them here in China, though we maintain a few joint projects in other countries. It's merely business and nothing personal against Lu Corporation."

"There must be a reason behind your decision to cut ties here and let go of the potential opportunities," Ming Rusheng pressed.

"Sometimes personal differences outweigh the temptation of business opportunities. There are always other potential partners to be found. The Magnus' aren't the only game in town..." Ming Rushing replied. "Is it related to their involvement in my brother's accident?" Lu Lijun interrupted, his voice cutting through the conversation.

"You could say that. While I wasn't particularly fond of your brother at the time, I did respect him as a formidable competitor. When I learned the truth about what happened and how Magnus and Xi Cheng orchestrated that scheme, my father and I made the decision to sever ties with them. However, after Xi Cheng's demise, we resumed our partnership with Song Industries. As for Magnus, we have no intentions of collaborating with them," Ming Rusheng explained.

"So Xi Cheng was involved in my brother's accident?" Lu Lijun sought confirmation.

"I assumed you were already aware," Ming Rusheng replied.

Lu Lijun nodded thoughtfully. "I had my suspicions, but this confirms it for me. Yuyan has worked tirelessly to conceal many details surrounding that incident."

"She chose to seek justice on her own terms," Lu Feng interjected, "and I totally support her decisions she took back then."

Lu Lijun could not deny it. If was in her place, he would have even gone the more brutal way. "Be careful not to discuss this in front of Jiang Yang and Nicky," Lu Feng interposed. "They've finally found each other, and revisiting Xi Cheng's involvement could reopen old wounds for both of them."

"I'll keep that in mind," Lu Lijun affirmed, while Ming Rusheng signaled his understanding to Lu Feng.

"Furthermore, Jiang Yang is unaware of who the Magnus Group is. In the past incident involving Yuyan, in USA, Magnus had no involvement; it was another party altogether," Lu Feng added. "And Jiang Yuyan still thinks it was only out of business rivalry that Xi Ching brought Victor Magnus in this."

Lu Lijun nodded in agreement. "I've gathered all the necessary information about them. Neither Brother Yang nor Yuyan will ever have to learn about their connection."

"What do you mean by 'other family was involved and not the Magnus family?" Ming Rusheng asked as he looked at Lu Feng, "Isn't that boy Victor Magnus' own son?"

Lu Lijun exchanged a glance with Noah, who nodded, indicating he would provide the explanation since he was familiar with gathering information. "The boy who tragically passed away was Victor Magnus' biological son, though this fact remains unknown to most. The boy's mother was once Victor's girlfriend during their youth, but she left him due to his involvement in underworld activities. She later married her current husband, a prominent businessman, who accepted her son as his own. Victor remained unaware of his son's existence until the day of his son's death."

"After his demise, the mother, decided to inform Victor so he could attend the funeral. However, being a vindictive individual, Victor saw this as an opportunity for revenge for his son who he never got to see alive. Now that Victor is deceased, his other son is determined to avenge his father and half-brother's deaths."

An Tian sighed deeply. "People have a knack for complicating things instead of pursuing a peaceful existence. Once again, valuable resources and time will be squandered on futile vengeance."

"Perhaps you could offer your counseling services to that Magnus's son, An Tian, offering it for free," Ming Rusheng suggested wryly.

"I would, but this young man here," An Tian gestured towards Lu Lijun, "won't permit me to."

"There's no need to intervene. I'll resolve this matter once and for all," Lu Lijun declared, his gaze steely with determination.

Lu Feng interjected, his expression grave. "I don't want any more bloodshed this time."

"As long as he behaves," Lu Lijun assured, his tone firm. "I am yet to find out one more person involved in that incident. I am not sure why Yuyan is hiding that person, but I will make sure to find it out and punish them the way they deserve."

"There must be a reason for her to do so," Lu Feng spoke, "You should respect her decision of not disclosing it."

"No one can go unpunished, then whoever they are," Lu Lijun said, as the thought of finding that fifth person involved, never left his mind.

"Stubborn as ever," An Tian sighed. "That should not be a news for you," Lu Lijun retorted. "Sure not a news and I am quite used to it now after dealing with Jiang Yuyan over the past ten years."
