"How should we celebrate?"
"The relatives have left."
Lin Ran lowered her head.
The view from the Bund was stunning, casting a particularly beautiful reflection through the window.
This was a moment of brilliance reserved solely for the two of them.
Romantic and moving...
"Ah Ran, let’s enjoy watching Old Li’s downfall now."
"Alright."
Luo Yao particularly disliked Li Chifen—not because of business matters or his past condescending attitude toward her.
It was solely because Li Chifen had disrespected Lin Ran at the last banquet.
Luo Yao had let it slide then, but that didn’t mean she’d let it go forever.
Now, it was time to avenge her man.
Her man was hers to tease—no one else had the right. Anyone who dared cross that line had "already signed their own death warrant."
That was also why Luo Yao had handed the evidence to Liu Meng. She wanted to push Liu Meng to grow while delivering a crushing blow to the Li Family—one that would wipe them out completely.
Downstairs, the heads of the three major families stared at Liu Meng, utterly baffled.
Li Chifen wondered why Liu Meng had invited all three of them.
Lu Youqi and Wang Xiaolin, on the other hand, were thinking, "Wasn’t the plan to destroy the Li Family? Why is he here?"
"I know you must have questions, but don’t worry. Just watch the news in a moment."
With that, Liu Meng sent a message from her phone.
[Execute.]
At the same time, Luo Corporation filed a formal report accusing the Li father and son of treason.
They had sold core national technology to foreign entities.
Not only that, they had also leaked massive amounts of Chinese client data—undeniable acts of betrayal.
The news was explosive.
It was as if we’d discovered that Jack Ma had handed over Alipay’s user data to foreigners while funding weapons to turn against us.
Or like Siemens docking Japanese warships at Tokyo Harbor, aiming their guns at Japan itself.
The public was sent into an uproar.
Lu, Li, and Wang were stunned as they read the headlines.
Lu Youqi and Wang Xiaolin turned to Li Chifen in shock.
"Li Chifen, how dare you?" They couldn’t believe it.
Li Chifen’s breathing grew heavy. "Assistant Liu, what is the meaning of this? Weren’t we supposed to be collaborating?"
"When did I say that? Show me proof." Liu Meng feigned ignorance, picking at her ear.
Realizing he’d been played, Li Chifen’s face darkened.
"So this was your plan all along? You never intended to let me live?"
Liu Meng raised an eyebrow. "Already cracking? Don’t worry, it’s not over yet."
The three men froze.
There was more?
Liu Meng tossed a tablet onto the untouched round dining table.
It displayed footage of arrests—though the criminals wore hoods, the background unmistakably showed the Li Family estate.
A reporter was speaking confidently.
"According to Luo Corporation’s report, the Li Family of Shanghai exploited their influence in the entertainment industry to organize prostitution rings, forming a full-fledged operation."
"Li Chifen and his father have already been arrested for treason. This case involves numerous individuals—we will neither wrong the innocent nor spare the guilty."
"Additionally, evidence provided by Luo Corporation has uncovered a child trafficking ring. Some of these abducted children were groomed by the Li Family for illegal profits, while others remain missing. Multiple Li Family members are implicated… Per official request, this station will continue reporting updates, ensuring full transparency."
This time, Lu Youqi and Wang Xiaolin weren’t just shocked—they were dumbfounded.
Prostitution rings were one thing—they’d known about that—but child trafficking?
Wang Xiaolin frowned. "Wait, the news says the Li father and son have been arrested. So who’s standing in front of us?"
Liu Meng smirked. "Just wait."
Li Chifen’s expression turned murderous. "Liu Meng, I’ll kill you—"
Suddenly, the private room door burst open. Armed officers swarmed in, pinning Li Chifen to the ground.
"Freeze!"
Li Chifen was dragged away before he could even resist.
Before leaving, the lead officer gave Liu Meng a nod.
"Thank you, Luo Corporation, for your report and cooperation in apprehending the suspect. We’ll take him now."
Liu Meng nodded. She knew exactly what awaited Li Chifen.
China had zero tolerance for traitors.
Spies were usually secretly transported to Beijing, locked away for life.
But Li Chifen’s crimes went beyond treason.
He had orchestrated prostitution rings involving his artists—a scheme many might dismiss as minor, but in reality, it was how the Li Family expanded their connections.
The clients weren’t ordinary people. Countless high-profile protectors would likely be exposed.
Even Lu Youqi had indulged in these services.
But the most horrifying revelation was the child trafficking. No one could’ve imagined such darkness behind the Li Family’s glamorous facade.
The news mentioned many missing children—their fates unimaginable.
After the officers left, Lu Youqi and Wang Xiaolin studied Liu Meng with newfound gravity.
"Don’t look at me. The show’s over. Have you two made your decision?"
After a long silence, Lu Youqi spoke first.
"One question—how did you uncover all this? And how did Li Chifen remain completely unaware?"
"I shouldn’t explain, but I’ll humor you. When I targeted the Lu and Wang Families but spared the Li Family, you figured it out—I wanted you to turn on each other."
"While you kept harassing him, I dangled empty promises from Luo Corporation. Li Chifen, torn between panic and excitement, had no time to notice the trap."
"Even his arrest here was part of the plan—just so you could witness it firsthand."
Liu Meng’s tone was calm, as if she hadn’t orchestrated the entire scheme.
But Lu Youqi and Wang Xiaolin were anything but calm. Their minds reeled.
Especially Wang Xiaolin—he saw the bigger picture.
Bringing down the Li Family seemed straightforward, but the execution was anything but.
Precise, ruthless, and airtight—no room for reversal.
Luo Yao had ensured the Li Family’s annihilation.
Liu Meng checked her watch, a slow smile forming.
48 hours—right on schedule.
All three families had been brought to their knees.
