Lu Zhao did not have to wait long in the hospital before a call came from the Lu family.

Lu Zhao had called off the engagement and accused Old Master Lu of tax evasion. The commotion was so significant that the Lu family was in complete disarray. They were desperate for him to return and handle the situation.

“Will you be okay on your own?” Luo Ying was concerned.

Luo Ying had initially planned to accompany Lu Zhao to the Lu family’s old residence, but he had refused.

Lu Zhao had already anticipated such chaos. There was no need for Luo Ying to endure that with him.

“I’ll be fine,” Lu Zhao reassured her and kissed her forehead affectionately.

“Don’t worry, just wait for me to come home.”

Worry clouded Luo Ying’s face as she nodded. Lu Zhao’s power struggle within the Lu family was progressing much faster than in the original novel. She couldn’t predict what would happen, but she chose to trust him.

Not long after, Lu Zhao arrived at the Lu family’s old residence with Sirius.

“Sirius, have some people seal off the surrounding area,” Lu Zhao instructed before getting out of the car.

He had dealt a significant blow to the Lu family this time. They may just resort to desperate measures when pushed into a corner.

“Don’t worry, everything has been arranged,” Sirius confidently smiled. At such a critical moment, he wouldn’t give the Lu family any chance to play dirty tricks.

However, when Lu Zhao entered the Lu family’s old residence, he didn’t see Old Master Lu. Instead, he was stopped by Lu Wen.

“Where’s Old Master Lu?” Lu Zhao asked casually, seeming unfazed by being stopped.

“Him? He returned not long ago. He wanted me to ask you to come back so he could teach you a lesson, but he was taken away by investigators!” Lu Wen looked at Lu Zhao with mixed emotions. He had never expected Lu Zhao to implicate Old Master Lu as well. “The charges you brought against him are quite serious.”

“An eye for an eye,” Lu Zhao smirked. Since the old man had deceived him with real estate projects, he was returning the favor with a similarly sweet trap.

However, it seemed he wouldn’t have the pleasure of witnessing Old Master Lu’s furious and frustrated expression today. He might as well turn around and head home. Luo Ying was still waiting for him.

“Lu Zhao, I underestimated you. You may have played me, but I definitely didn’t think you would have the balls to turn on Old Master Lu,” Lu Wen’s tone turned dark. He no longer displayed the arrogance he once had, and the fatigue on his face was unmistakeable.

The last time he learned that Lu Zhao had the antidote, it was the closest Lu Wen had come to hope.

He had spent a considerable amount of time and effort investigating the daughter of the poison master. However, every time he thought he was making progress, the leads would disappear.

Just when he was about to give up, new information would suddenly emerge.

As the investigation progressed, Lu Wen’s emotions fluctuated. After several instances, he finally realized something was amiss.

Upon further investigation, he discovered that all the leads and intelligence he

had received were orchestrated by Lu Zhao and deliberately ted to him.

It had all been a ruse!

The moment he realized this, Lu Wen felt an intense desire to confront Lu Zhao and fight him to the death.

Lu Zhao sneered impatiently. “Fooled you? Isn’t your side project going well? As for other matters, I never made any promises.”

However, progress on the project was extremely limited. He was completely trapped in a hopeless waiting game! Lu Zhao had an antidote readily available, but he couldn’t obtain it!

Lu Wen’s face twisted as he clenched his fists tightly.

“You!” He punched the pillar beside him. “Do you think you’ll be cured just because you found the daughter of the poison master? Haven’t you realized it?

She’s on the verge of death!”

Lu Zhao’s expression changed. “What do you mean?”

“You may have led me on a wild goose chase, it doesn’t mean I haven’t gained anything,” Lu Wen glared at Lu Zhao with hatred. “Do you really think a single woman can keep donating so much blood without any consequences? No human can withstand the repeated bloodletting. This isn’t an antidote; she’s trading her life for you! It will take at least a year to cure the poison in your body. By the time you’re cured, she’ll be dead!

“I wonder which is going to hold out. The poison in your blood, or her!” Lu Wen said coldly before turning and walking away.

This was Lu Wen’s provocation tactic, and Lu Zhao was fully aware of it.

However, a sense of unease slowly spread through his heart. Could what Lu Wen said be true?

“Sirius, who is the daughter of the poison master?” Lu Zhao met Sirius after Lu Wen left and asked with utmost seriousness..
