As for who the culprit was, the Ouyang family could not find even the slightest clue.

Ouyang Ming felt that it was Lu Jingye’s work, but the seniors had denied his idea.

In the end, he had even received a scolding.

That caused Ouyang Ming to bear even more hatred deep down and he decided to investigate in private.

In fact, Lu Jingye was in the dark about this matter.

At half-past three in the morning, a helicopter alighted in the Lu family’s courtyard.

Lu Jingye alighted from the helicopter and saw Lu Jianlin waiting for him.

He walked towards him and called out, “Father.”

Lu Jianlin checked over his eldest son who was covered in dust and patted him on his shoulders. “Jingye, you’ve worked hard.”

“Thank you.”

Lu Jingye handed him a password-protected box. “The medicine of that Clan is in here.”

Lu Jianlin took the box and they headed towards the car.

“Did you meet with any danger at the clan?”

“Nothing to be worried about.”

Lu Jianlin looked at the calm and restrained Lu Jingye. He knew that his eldest son would never tell him, even if he had encountered any great danger and he could not help but sigh deep down.

He thought for a moment and said, “Take a rest for the next few days. Don’t go to the office.”

Lu Jingye responded but did not say anything else.

Lu Jianlin knew that his son must have gotten injured from this trip.

…

Early in the morning the next day, just as Zi Yi came out from the living room, she saw the housekeeper directing the movers who were carrying several pots of flowers.

Upon seeing Zi Yi, the housekeeper smiled and greeted. “Goodmorning Miss Zi.”

“Good morning.” Zi Yi walked over and checked out the flowers as her eyes revealed joy. “Ah Jing got people to deliver them?”

“That’s right.”

Zi Yi knew that Lu Jingye had returned because of the delivery.

She waited for the potted flowers to be arranged properly before she went over to appreciate them.

This type of flower was similar to an orchid, but they weren’t the same species. It could be used as medicine and as a beauty product.

She reached out and poked the petals while thinking of what she should use the flowers for.

Seeing that Zi Yi was so fond of the flowers, the housekeeper’s smile deepened. “Miss Zi, Second Young Master has something to attend to today and so he should be returning tomorrow.”

Zi Yi nodded, glanced at the flowers for a while before she went out for a run.

After breakfast, Zi Yi headed to the bar.

Unexpectedly, just as she parked her car, a man rushed over from the side.

Zi Yi frowned when she saw him and looked at him with a cold gaze.

“I’ve already said that I will not accept you in my club. You better not stick around or else…”

Speaking up to here, Zi Yi then threatened. “I’ll break your legs.”

Zhou Shijin looked at Zi Yi with a nervous expression, but his eyes brightened from her words. The next second, he lowered his head and said, “Can I drive your car again?”

He then looked up into Zi Yi’s eyes with resolution. “If I still can’t drive it, I will never appear before you again in the future.”

Zi Yi stared at him with a slight frown. A few seconds later, she asked, “What are your motives?”

Zhou Shijin had no intentions to hide anything. “I want to win the international racing competition in October and prove to my brother that I’m not useless.”

Zi Yi narrowed her eyes. In fact, she could see that he was suitable for racing, but she did not intend to get herself into unnecessary trouble.

Not to mention he was a member of the Zhou family, one of the eight great aristocratic families.

“You can try out with other racing clubs. I don’t need you here.”

Zi Yi headed to the bar and went in.

Zhou Shijin did not chase her. He stood there for an hour or so before he then left.

Zi Yi did not put this incident to heart.

At noon, someone suddenly knocked on the doors of her bar.

Zi Yi got one of the robots to connect to the surveillance outside and discovered a luxury car parked by the door and a bodyguard was currently knocking on the door.

Just as she was guessing who it was, an elegant man who resembled Zhou Shijin alighted.

She immediately knew who he was.

When the man walked to the door, the bodyguard moved aside.

Instead of waiting, he reached out his hand and started knocking.

Zi Yi commanded the robot. “Open the door.”

After the door was opened, the man came in alone.

When he took a turn and saw Zi Yi sitting on the sofa, he was clearly stunned for a second.

“You’re Zi Yi?”

“Yes.” Zi Yi did not invite him to sit down and directly asked, “You’re looking for me?”

“That’s right.” He spoke concisely and his tone contained a hint of a command. “My brother wishes to join your club. I want you to reject him.”

Zi Yi suddenly laughed at his words.

However, her smile did not reach her eyes.

She leaned against the chair and coldly said, “Do you think you are qualified to order me around?”

The man frowned at her words. Shortly after, he took out a cheque from his suit, wrote a series of numbers, and placed it on the table. “Ten million. Reject my brother from joining the racing club.”

Zi Yi remained unmoved and looked up at him with an expression of disdain. “So little?”

Zhou Shiyu narrowed his eyes and revealed a dangerous glint.

Does this woman intend to rip him off?

Zi Yi looked at Zhou Shiyu’s expression and sneered. “You brothers are honestly funny. One is trying every possible means to prove his abilities while the other is trying every means to stop him.”

Zhou Shiyu did not expect his younger brother to have said anything to her. “You better mind your own business.”

“Pft.”

Zhou Shiyu took out his checkbook again and asked, “How much do you want?”

Just as she was about to speak, the phone suddenly rang.

She did not even bother to look at his checkbook and took out her phone to check the caller.

It was from Lu Jingye.

He told her that he would be reaching the bar very soon.

The corner of her lips curled up and she happily responded.

After putting away her phone, her expression changed back to indifference.

“Do you think I need money?”

Zhou Shiyu looked at Zi Yi’s changing expressions and felt unhappy deep down. “How much do you want?”

Zi Yi looked at him as if looking at a psycho and said impolitely, “Do you think you’re all that great just by being rich? I am not short of money and you should keep that small change of yours to slowly spend it instead.”

Zhou Shiyu had never been treated so rudely before. He was surging in anger and was about to explode.

Just then, steady footsteps could be heard from behind.

He subconsciously turned around and was surprised at the sight of the man.

“Second Brother?”

Lu Jingye nodded at him. His eyes first landed on the checkbook before moving towards Zi Yi, his gaze seemed to be asking what was going on.
