Lu Ming looked at the agitated Ma Jie and asked tentatively, “Did the higher-ups notice such a big move? After all, I heard that planes can’t take off now. It has caused a very serious impact, right?”

“The investigation has already begun. We’ll probably know what happened soon.”

Ma Jie sighed and said, “Speaking of the Tang family, it’s strange. They didn’t react at all after so many days. Moreover, we’ve reflected on it several times. The Tang family said it nicely on the surface, that they will get back into production as soon as possible! And they say the same thing every time. But

there’s not even a fart from them. Doesn’t that mean they think we’re fools?!”

He did not react because the old master of the Tang family did not know about this at all. He was completely kept in the dark by his subordinates.

The more Lu Ming thought about it, the more he felt that this was the hand of God at work! If Lu Ze had a normal brain, he would not have done such a thing—destroying himself along with the enemy. Moreover, it was a question whether he could hurt the enemy.

He could afford to delay production for a month.

But could the Tang family do it?

He looked forward to the day the matter was exposed.

“Mr, Ma, why are you here? Do you need my help? You look quite anxious.”

Ma Jie said solemnly, “I do have something I want to ask you. Because of the shortage of aviation fuel, our current research has stalled. We’re in the last stretch. And we have to finish it within this week. I heard from Little Peng that you bought a lot of aviation fuel recently.”

He paused for a moment before continuing, “I want to buy some from you. There’s nowhere to go or I wouldn’t have come to you because… you bought the fuel for your wife’s surprise, right? Don’t worry, when the aviation fuel is produced again, I’ll pay you double. How about that?”

“Okay.”

“Actually, you can reconsider. By then, the price will be lowered accordingly. This is working for the country… Wait! What did you say?!”

Ma Jie thought that he would reject him tactfully, but he did not expect such a decisive answer. For a moment, he was in disbelief. “What did you say?”

“Tsaid, I agreed.”

Lu Ming chuckled. This matter had something to do with him, so he would help. He could also win Ma Jie over by doing him a favor. So why not? he thought.

“Since it has to do with the country, I have to help you. How much do you want? I’ll sell it to you at the lowest price.”

Ma Jie held Lu Ming’s hands and said excitedly, “Thank you so much. When the experiment is completed, I’l get the higher-ups to commend you for your actions! If you have time later, come to the headquarters to take a look. You might have some new inspiration.”

He immediately invited Lu Ming to visit him. Those who did not know better would think that the China National Space Administration was easy to enter. However, in this world, other than his peers, only Lu Ming had such privileges. Firstly, he was grateful that Lu Ming was willing to help. Secondly, his

colleagues had heard about Lu Ming’s’ heroic deeds’ and wanted to see him in person.

If he was really capable, poaching the China National Space Administration would be a good thing!

The two of them chatted for a while longer before Ma Jie happily led his subordinates back with the fuel. He Xiaopeng said worriedly, “Boss, will we make it in time? Am I talking too much?”

“Don’t worry, even if you don’t say it, I will still make the same choice when they come. As for fuel, we can buy it later. There’s still time.”

Seeing how calm his boss was, He Xiaopeng’s eyes lit up. He asked, “Do you have another idea?”

After getting Lu Ming’s affirmative answer, he finally felt relieved. Then he returned to his post with a smile.

Not long after, the phone on the table rang.

Lu Ming picked up the call and said, “How is it going? Have you found it?”

“The surveillance camera footage in Beijing has already been obtained and their transaction records have been found, but we still lack evidence to directly nail someone.”

It was best to have someone keep an eye on Lu Ze. Otherwise, his plan would not have gone so smoothly.

“Iknow, so I got someone to obtain information.”

A series of moves would definitely catch the Tang family and Lu Ze off guard.

Ina suburban villa in Beijing.

A woman in branded clothes was holding the arm of a handsome man intimately as she said coquettishly, “Feng, why didn’t I meet you earlier? I think we’re definitely destined to be lovers. I don’t know how I will live without you in the coming days.”

“Little Tian Tian, what are you talking about? It’s my good fortune to have met you. But you seem to be going out often recently, right? Do you have someone else in your heart? So you want to kick me away?”

Zhou Feng looked at the woman beside him dotingly and could not help muttering in his heart, What destined lover? If I hadn’t done an investigation beforehand and found out that this person has a sugar daddy, I’m afraid I would have really believed her.

“Beng, you’re thinking too much. You were the only one I loved from the start. Although it had been only a few days, you filled my heart from the moment I met you.”

Zhang Li used her index finger to draw circles on his chest and said, “It’s not like you don’t know my character. I’ma very sentimental person. Feng, you have to believe me.”

“But you’re still unwilling to tell me, right? I’m angry. If you’re unwilling to tell me, I’ll leave now!”

Zhou Feng’s expression immediately turned ugly as he made a move to leave. Zhang Li gritted her teeth and thought to herself, If I can’t bear to part with one, I won’t be able to win another over! She did not want her new boyfriend to leave just like that. She was not sick of him yet!

“Actually, it was Dacheng, the man who provided for me, who called me over.”

She had told Zhou Feng about being a mistress before, so he was not very surprised now. “And then? What did he ask you to do?”

Zhang Li lay in his arms weakly and said,

involvement in bribery to Old Master.”

“Of course, I just wanted to chat with him and do something else. When I saw him, he was already drunk. He was mumbling about how Third Miss Tang’s son asked him to prohibit the production of fuel in the factories. Otherwise, he would send evidence of his

“Twas wondering why there haven’t been any flights recently. So that was what happened. But Old Master has always been careful. How did Third Miss Tang’s son know about this? And how did he obtain the evidence of bribery? He could extend his reach here even from Shanghai.”

Very good, I’m getting the evidence directly.

Zhou Feng seemed to be interested.. He asked, “Do you know where the evidence is?”
