The CEO's Woman

Chapter 217 Endless Influence

"Jin call Mother and Father. Tell them to be careful I think the true target of the person behind Fu Xiaolan is the Fu Conglomerate." Jiang Yue blurted after she analyzed every possible scenario.

After thinking about the latest events, Jiang Yue concluded that the true goal of the person behind this is to distract them internally so they won’t be able to focus on the external things. Example the Fu Conglomerate abroad.

The Fu Conglomerate is an oil company who is based abroad. Therefore most of its branches and mines were also abroad. Thinking about all the random things that had been happening, Jiang Yue can clearly say that their attention were diverted. Their focus was only to what was happening in this country inside Fu Jin’s family.

They took their time dealing with a troublesome enemy. They did not even consider the things happening outside of the Fu Family including the family business. This must be the masterminds goal. Divide their attention so they can focus on the wrong things.

Jiang Yue already concluded this before, but that was before Fu Xiaolan warned her about who her true enemy was.

The good thing is that they decided to divide their attention. Fu Jin and Jiang Yue will focus on the internal trouble within the Fu Family while Fu Yi and Zhao Feiyan will focus on the things happening abroad.

Jiang Yue did not wait for Fu Jin’s answer as she immediately bolted towards Old Man Fu’s house. She wanted to confirm her theory by talking to the old man.

"Grandfather, can you tell me what had been happening abroad since this whole fiasco started?" she asked the moment she finished explaining her conclusion to the old man. Fu Jin and Wang Minghua stood beside Jiang Yue as they followed her to the residence of Old Man Fu.

Seeing Jiang Yue’s sincere expression, the old man did not hesitate to explain.

"The Fu Conglomerate had been around for centuries." Old Man Fu started. "We have a lot of enemies both abroad and here. I would not wonder if the true purpose of this person is our company."

"Our Company is on top of the worldwide market not because of our kindness. In fact, it was because of our ruthlessness. We have contributed to a lot of deaths and scandals over the past couple of years. All of which had been solved using money."

Jiang Yue’s interest perked as she listened to Old Man Fu.

"FC Oils had been running for centuries using bones and secrets as its foundation." the old man said. "It was not really a surprise to know that someone wanted us out of the market. But, it won’t be so easy to take down an empire that had been built for centuries."

"The newest problems that we have, involves some environmental groups randomly attacking some of our branches and offshore mines abroad. Fu Yi and Feiyan are already working on it. So you don’t have to worry. This is not the first time that this had to happen to some of our branches, the only difference is they seem to be so organized this time."

"Why is this not in the news?" Fu Jin asked.

"We need to keep it quiet for now. I don’t want to alarm our investors and affect some of our ventures abroad."

"How about mother and father?"

"They can handle themselves. Don’t worry about them. For now, you do everything to find Fu Xiaolan."

"Understood, Grandfather" Fu Jin and Jiang Yue nodded before they said goodbye to Old Man Fu.

The duo then went back to Fu Jin’s room to discuss some things about Zhang Liyin’s death.

After concluding that someone indeed killed her, the trio again slipped into a dead end. Everything from the mastermind behind Fu Xiaolan’s schemes to the attack on the Fu Conglomerate was so unclear, that they often fell into silence while thinking about all possible scenarios.

At one point, Jiang Yue was thinking that it might be someone that the Fu Family offended. Maybe someone powerful who wanted to cause trouble for them. However, she immediately avoided the idea.

Then she thought it might have been someone who wanted to completely destroy the Fu Conglomerate. Still, she ended up in a dead end.

That is until Fu Jin received a call from the right-hand man of his father.

Fu Jin’s face instantly paled when he heard the news of another hit on one of their branches. However, this time his mother was injured and his father lost consciousness.

Fu Jin and Jiang Yue immediately decided to go abroad to take care of the whole situation. Of course, Jiang Yue did a lot of research about the Fu Conglomerate including their past scandals and issues.

Her research also includes all the secrets that the Fu Conglomerate was keeping behind their closets. Both Fu Jin and Old Man Fu agreed to have her look into some of their top secret files, for her to understand the things that she and Fu Jin is going to deal with in the future.

"Whoa. I actually didn’t thought that your family will have this kind of influence in and outside of the black market." She thought out loud while reading the files on her laptop and some papers in her hands.

In response, Fu Jin just nodded silently. His family had been around for centuries not because of their money alone but their endless influence- both legal and illegal.
