And at this time, Shanghai, Jinxiu Group. Previously, Xie Nanyong and Xie Bein had stolen the company’s internal information and passed it to other groups, causing irreparable losses to the company. It was thanks to Chu Ge securing 2 billion from Zhao Wuji’s bank for turnover that the situation was salvaged. But now, the same situation has occurred again. Mu Bingtong anxiously waited in the meeting room, in front of her was the finance department calculating the losses. "President Mu, one batch of stocks has been reclaimed. Should we continue reclaiming the others?" Mu Bingtong pondered for a moment. The last time she ordered a halt, the stock prices showed a downward trend again. After some thought, she nodded, "Continue reclaiming." Beside her, Xiao Shan looked confused, but as the secretary, he couldn’t interfere with President Mu’s decision, so he just stood by watching. Yet seeing Mu Bingtong’s anxious appearance, he couldn’t help but ask, "President Mu, should we give Mr. Chu a call?" Mu Bingtong froze, then shook her head, "No, he must be very busy in Capital City now." It was the peak of the summit, so she decided not to call him and add to his worries. Mu Bingtong’s face showed a hint of a smile, and seeing this, Xiao Shan also felt much more at ease. "Alright, you don’t need to worry. Trust me, I will definitely get through this." This time, the company’s vital secret documents had been stolen, though not as risky as last time, the stock market would still be turbulent. This left Mu Bingtong with some doubts, because not only was their company affected, but other companies encountered similar situations simultaneously. This led her to suspect that someone was indeed behind all of this. "President Mu, there’s just this portion of stocks left, should we continue reclaiming?" the finance department asked again. Mu Bingtong nodded, "Reclaim it all." The finance department was somewhat troubled, looking at Mu Bingtong with some hesitation, "But our funds have been frozen." "What?" Mu Bingtong froze and quickly approached the computer, asking puzzledly, "What does frozen mean? Who froze it?" While she was wondering, Mu Bingtong’s phone suddenly rang. It was a call from another company inquiring about the situation. Mu Bingtong picked it up, and heard the person inside complaining, "President Mu, was your fund frozen? Our funds were suddenly frozen by the bank." Mu Bingtong increasingly felt that someone was indeed causing trouble behind the scenes. "Ours has already been frozen." Mu Bingtong sighed; without funds, the remaining stocks couldn’t be reclaimed. If the stocks can’t be reclaimed, then they can easily be sold off completely. Although there aren’t many stocks left outside now, there’s no guarantee that something unexpected won’t happen. "Then what should we do now? I heard the Zhang Group’s funds were frozen too, they’ve already started to think of solutions, why not we seek out Tianrui Bank together?" Tianrui Bank? Zhao Wuji? Mu Bingtong hesitated, remembering that last time, Chu Ge secured 2 billion from there to help her through the crisis. "Let me think about it."

But Mu Bingtong knew all too well that someone was definitely behind this. Meanwhile, in a private villa, the person orchestrating everything sat leisurely on the sofa, while beside him, the trader was continuously operating. Suddenly, he stopped and turned to say, "Chairman, they’ve halted the acquisitions." The person slowly sat up, "All halted acquisitions?" The trader nodded, "Yes, they’ve all halted. It seems there’s an issue with their funds." The mysterious figure sitting on the sofa snorted lightly, a faint smile curved at the corner of his lips, precisely as he’d anticipated. "Put pressure on the banks, don’t let them loan to these people." The trader, somewhat puzzled, said, "But there’s one bank, it’s not under regulation." "You mean Tianrui Bank?" The trader nodded, "This bank, no need to worry about it. Even if they give out home loans, how much can they offer? Every home loan has a limit." The trader thought for a bit, wanting to say something more, but seeing the mysterious figure’s somewhat displeased expression, he swallowed his words. The sudden change in the winds in Shanghai hadn’t yet reached Capital City, as at this moment, Chu Ge slowly awoke. Having temporarily lost martial arts, he was awakened by the surrounding cold air. He moved his limbs a bit, noticing he regained some strength, and sat up slowly, looking around. He remembered that when he was unconscious, the Black Widow wanted to drain their martial arts. Could it be that their martial arts had already been drained by the Black Widow? While hesitating, Chu Ge’s gaze fell on Gu Tong yawning not far away, and a nearby old man lay resting with eyes closed. Chu Ge was taken aback, surprised to see them, "Gu Tong? Dao Liu senior?" Gu Tong had his hands in his pockets, slowly approached, saying, "You finally woke up, how do you feel now?" Dao Liu also slowly opened his eyes, got up, walked up to Chu Ge, and felt his arm, "Pulse is stable, seems all is well now." Chu Ge asked in confusion. Gu Tong couldn’t help but roll his eyes, "If it wasn’t us who saved you, did you escape from the Black Widow yourself?" Facing Gu Tong’s sarcasm, Chu Ge had long been used to it. What he didn’t expect was that Dao Liu would come, disregarding the exposure of his identity, to save them, and moreover, he wondered how they knew where they were. Seeing Chu Ge’s puzzlement, Dao Liu said, "Gu Tong heard from Lin Dong and Lin Zhao about your matters at Fangding Mountain, guessing you wouldn’t let Black Widow off easily, you’d certainly track her down." "I knew the Black Widow had been very active lately, so I found out more about her, realizing she’d successfully cultivated the Star Shifting Technique. I feared you’d land in trouble, so I came to check, and here I actually found you." Dao Liu chuckled lightly, raised his hand to point at Chu Ge, saying, "You got a big life, kid. If I’d arrived even a step later, the Black Widow would have drained all of your True Qi." Chu Ge looked at Dao Liu with gratitude, "Many thanks, Dao Liu senior, for saving our lives." Dao Liu waved his hand, "I’m not buying your gratitude, get up and test if your martial arts have recovered." Chu Ge hesitated, he tried just now but found that although his strength had returned somewhat, he still couldn’t sense his martial arts.
