Chapter 29 Su Enxi
After asking around, Lu Mingfei was also puzzled. The system had some concerns about not being able to use others, so it could only push things forward slowly. It was estimated that it would take one to two weeks to compete with his aunt and then control her.
But now this matter has been directly ignited, as if by magic, the effect... it's as if he jumped off a building because he couldn't bear the exploitation of his uncle and aunt, it's really explosive.
As for the questions from his gaming friends, Lu Mingfei didn't say much, because there was no need. The matter had been spread in such detail that there was no need for him to add any more details; doing so would only make others think he held a grudge.
Walking leisurely down the street, Lu Mingfei was not flustered at all. Now that the news had spread, he was not the one who should be anxious; he was the innocent victim.
The ones who should be worried are the uncle and aunt.
He and the system were pondering who had leaked the information. While it had helped him achieve some of his goals, it had also disrupted the system's overall plan.
The system's plan was to control the uncle's family, making them avoid him like mice would avoid a cat, so as not to disgust him.
Now, it's a matter of life and death, a battle to determine who's superior. With this mudslinging out, only one side can continue to survive at Shilan Middle School.
However, after receiving the child support payment, Lu Mingze could no longer continue attending Shilan Middle School without tuition fee reduction.
This is a struggle that is destined to end with his uncle's family dying and his family living.
The system assumed a battle stance and stepped onto the stairs, but as soon as it approached its uncle's house, it heard a commotion:
"Lu Mingfei isn't here, he's not here now, and he never will be. Get that ingrate out of my house!"
"..."
The system paused. The group has already started? How come the people involved on my side didn't know?
As I reached the door, I bumped into a man with a refined yet sleazy appearance, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, who was leading a group of people out of my uncle's house.
"Oh! Mr. Lu Mingfei! It's great to see you!" Upon seeing Lu Mingfei, the man walked up to him happily, shook his hand, and introduced himself: "Fang Yucai, a lawyer specializing in both civil and criminal litigation."
Upon hearing his words from inside the room, his aunt immediately rushed out, pointing angrily at Lu Mingfei: "You ungrateful wretch! All these years your parents have abandoned you, and I've cooked for you every morning, noon, and night, and this is how you treat us?"
“I don’t agree with what this lady said.” Attorney Fang immediately stepped in to defend her: “The money that Lu Mingfei’s parents send you every year isn’t given to you for free…”
The system and Lu Mingfei stared blankly as the lawyer logically and persuasively countered his aunt's unreasonable demands.
He refuted each of his aunt's questions, and of course, his aunt was quite unreasonable, but the lawyer was not to be outdone, directly invoking the law to intimidate her back.
For example, illegally appropriating a large amount of other people's property and refusing to return it can result in a sentence of up to two years in prison. In your case, the amount is huge, so you can be sentenced to up to two years in prison and so on... He started with a sentence of more than one year in prison, and he's holding his own against his aunt.
The aunt was so anxious she wanted to tear his mouth apart, but the lawyer just gave a contemptuous, crooked smile, and two bodyguards in black immediately stopped her.
The lawyer turned to Lu Mingfei, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, and said obsequiously, "Mr. Lu Mingfei, I can handle your case entirely. You just need to sign the authorization."
"But I didn't invite you, did I?" the system asked.
"What are you still putting on? You ingrate, Lu Gucheng! Look at this, your good nephew, your good brother's son!..." The aunt kept calling him an ingrate, but neither of them paid any attention to her.
"Someone couldn't stand the exploitation your uncle and aunt's family was inflicting on you, so they asked me to come and help you resolve this issue," Attorney Fang said righteously. "To restore justice to Mr. Lu!"
"Who invited you?" the system asked.
To this day, it still doesn't know what happened, but it understands to some extent that the uproar at the school is related to this incident.
"The client's name is Ms. Su Enxi." Fang Yucai scrutinized Lu Mingfei's expression, which remained unchanged throughout.
"Su Enxi?"
There's no need to write it down; Lu Mingfei has no recollection of this name.
How much did she pay you?
The system casually asked questions, analyzing the possible reasons and purposes behind the other party's actions.
The amount of money the other party spends will also affect the judgment of their purpose. It's like how a person can spend a few cents to have some fun, but not tens of dollars; once that money for happiness is spent, the happiness will be gone.
Attorney Fang adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses with a finger and smiled, "It's not about the money; the main thing is that justice is priceless."
That's a lot of money, hundreds of thousands? Millions?
The system glanced at the two bodyguards in black. What normal person would have bodyguards? But looking at this lawyer who looked like a refined scoundrel, just like Fang Tangjing in Stephen Chow's "Hail the Judge," he really deserved a beating. He might really have to rely on bodyguards.
"Where is she now? She pulled this stunt out of the blue, and now I have nowhere to sleep tonight," the system asked.
Although it was inexplicable, since things had come to this point, the system could only go with the flow and see the true face of the person behind the scenes.
Fang Yucai sensed that this young man was no ordinary person. As the ancients said, "One who has thunder in his heart but a calm face can be a general." The young man's expression remained unchanged from beginning to end, whether he was facing him or his aunt who was in a fit of rage.
"The Regent Hotel has already booked rooms."
Fang Yucai, like a sycophant, led Mingfei into the car and left the residential area.
I rode in a luxury car S550 last night, and this afternoon I rode in a super luxury car Bentley.
Fang Yucai took out an iced cola from the mini-fridge and handed it to him, but the system refused, sitting quietly in the five-million-dollar car without asking any questions, its eyes showing a hint of contemplation.
"Mr. Lu..."
Fang Yucai muttered to himself about getting Lu Mingfei to sign the authorization.
The system is analyzing Su Enxi as a person, and also analyzing whether to authorize this matter.
Judging from Fang Yucai's methods, if he were to take over, Uncle's family would definitely be skinned alive. But since things have come to this point, if they don't act ruthlessly, Auntie will only think Lu Mingfei is easy to bully… Trying to kill a snake without killing it will only backfire, but they really can't kill it…
You ruined my plans!
The system was analyzing Su Enxi's background. If this matter wasn't resolved, then the system... it could only choose to remain silent.
The other side is powerful and influential, with luxury cars worth millions, bodyguards, professional lawyers, and the ability to stir up public opinion... A head-on confrontation is not a wise move. Let this system develop for ten or eight years, and when the time comes to settle accounts, if you don't run away, then you are this (thumbs up)!
The car stopped, and Fang Yucai immediately got out and opened the door for Lu Mingfei from the other side. "Mr. Lu, we've arrived. Please."
Chapter 30 A Fake at First Glance
The Regent Hotel is the most luxurious hotel in their city, bar none.
Inside the presidential suite, the system's gaze swept over the three women.
[Female 1, no makeup, her natural beauty score is 8.7 out of 10. She has a slightly mature, sophisticated style. Due to differing personal preferences, different people may find her more or less beautiful, her score fluctuating between 8 and 10. But even those who don't like her type wouldn't think she's unattractive; her basic attractiveness is extremely high...]
[Female Lead 2, no makeup, her natural beauty score is 8.6 out of 10. She has a youthful, girlish style, and her long legs are a plus. Due to differing personal preferences, different people may find her either more or less beautiful, her score fluctuating between 8 and 10. But even those who don't like her type wouldn't think she's unattractive; her basic attractiveness is extremely high…]
[Female 3, Caucasian, no makeup, natural beauty score: 8.9. She's a "loli" type; due to personal preferences, different people may find her less or more beautiful, her score fluctuating between 8 and 10. But even those who don't like her type wouldn't consider her unattractive; her basic beauty is extremely high...]
Upon seeing the person in the room, the system's first reaction was not to look for the woman named Su Enxi, but to add her as a main quest objective.
After all, the task with the highest priority is 1.().
Putting everything else aside, I found three mission targets on this trip to the hotel, and they were all of a decent caliber. Based on that alone, the system felt that coming to this hotel was the right decision.
The system was sizing them up, and they were sizing up Lu Mingfei.
Fang Yucai, being perceptive, remained silent, standing behind Lu Mingfei and waiting for them to speak.
With long, flowing hair, large black-rimmed glasses, and a fitted blazer that accentuated her figure, the mature yet slightly naive woman, enhanced by black stockings, was the first to end the eye contact between the two.
She began by saying, "Lu Mingfei, my name is Su Enxi. We are your parents' friends. Your parents asked us to come and see how you are doing."
"Oral recitation?" The system actually wanted to add some "Emperor's" power to the language to test the other party's identity. But unfortunately, the "Emperor's" power only applies to dragon script.
"There is faith."
Su Enxi took out a letter and handed it to him with both hands.
The system opened the envelope, took out the letter inside, glanced at it, and then suddenly seemed to chuckle silently.
The letter is fake; the other party has ill intentions.
However, the system didn't just throw it in the trash. The other party's purpose was still unknown. Although the situation started off with some ill intentions, it wasn't enough to completely disregard them and just throw the letter away with a "Lord's Flame" attack. That would be too ruthless.
The three women are all newly added mission targets. If they become enemies immediately, it will be difficult to resolve the situation later. Even if they can be resolved, it will require a lot of effort. The system does not like to make things more difficult for itself.
"What do you want from me?" The system put the letter back into the envelope, closed it, and handed it to Attorney Fang behind it without a care.
The meaning is quite clear: this thing might fool others, but it won't fool me.
The tall, leggy, young beauty, who was over 1.7 meters tall, raised an eyebrow and leaned down to whisper to the little Western girl, "How did he recognize you at a glance? I think your imitation was pretty good."
“That’s normal.” The little Western girl who was imitating Lu Mingfei’s parents’ letter wasn’t surprised at all. After a pause, she explained to her, “When it comes to authentication, there’s never a glimpse of what’s real, but there’s always a glimpse of what’s fake. What’s the answer to 9640823 multiplied by 64951803 multiplied by 45186469? I couldn’t calculate it in an instant either, but I know that the last digit of the answer must be 1. If the last digit of the answer isn’t 1, then it’s definitely a mistake.”
"So that's how it is." Long Legs immediately understood.
Su Enxi said to the outsider in the room, "Attorney Fang, you can go out first. I'll talk to you about the engagement later."
“Okay.” Without hesitation, Attorney Fang took the letter, turned around, and left, closing the door behind him.
"Please have a seat and let's chat," Su Enxi said, inviting the guests to sit down.
The system remained completely calm, walked over to the sofa, and sat down directly.
Su Enxi sat down and crossed her legs. The little girl sat upright, while the long-legged girl said, "My name is Jiude Mai, and you can call the other one Zero."
"Yes, Lu Mingfei." The system nodded, then said, "You're the ones who spread the rumors about Shilan Middle School, aren't you?"
"It was nothing, no need to thank me," said Jiu Demai smugly.
"Indeed, there's no need to thank me, because you ruined my preparations." The system said slowly, "What do you want from me?"
Mai Shude immediately fell silent and looked at Su Enxi.
"Did I ruin your plans? I'm sorry." Su Enxi poured tea for Lu Mingfei. "Relax, don't act like you're facing an enemy. We're not enemies."
"But we're not friends yet. I'm the kind of person who likes to speak my mind."
“We also like to speak frankly,” Su Enxi said. “Our boss thinks highly of you and originally wanted to help you solve a small problem, but we didn’t expect that we were presumptuous and caused you more trouble instead. So what about your uncle now?”
What were you originally planning to do?
"I'll help you get back what's rightfully yours," Su Enxi said. "Your uncle and aunt are ordinary people; we can handle this using the same methods we use on ordinary people. But how far do you think we should go?"
"I don't need much. The most important thing is to keep them from bothering me. The rest is up to us." After saying that, the system asked, "Who is your boss?"
“An old friend of yours.” Su Enxi smiled. “But you may have forgotten him. But that doesn’t matter, our boss still remembers you.”
"Forgotten friends..." The system nodded, not pressing further, and instead asked, "So what are you going to do next?"
“What we do depends on what you want to do, Lu Mingfei.” Su Enxi pointed to the three of them. “We’re here to help you, boss.”
"How can he help? If I want to fight Odin, how should he help?" The system brought up the matter of Odin.
Su Enxi said with a smile, "That depends on which Odin we're fighting. If it's the chief god of Norse mythology, the king of the gods of Asgard, then we're powerless. But if it's the Odin that exists in this world, then we can still lend a hand."
"Hmm..." Judging from the other party's words, they must know about the Odin who exists in reality, a bloodline user? The system perked up; it could get superpowers for free again!
