Lu Chengwen said, "Hundreds of billions were swept away from me. I'm in a terrible mood. Is there anything bigger than that?"
Wen Bin smiled. "The whole Northern Country is talking about it right now, yet you're still sitting tight."
"You called me just to talk about this?"
Wen Bin said, "Cheng Wen, we were brothers back in college, weren't we?"
"Of course."
"When you first rose to power, there were plenty of things you couldn't handle. I helped you out too. You remember that, right?"
"I've always remembered that favor. I won't forget it."
"Now I've run into trouble too."
"So because you're in trouble, you're screwing over Chen Mengyun?"
Wen Bin said, "I'm not screwing her over. You're the one screwing her over! You refused to come to the provincial capital and pushed a young woman like her to the front lines. Isn't that practically inviting those four old men to target her? Let me tell you, Xiangyun has been in terrible shape lately. The inside is in turmoil, and a lot of people are looking for a way out."
Lu Chengwen said, "You must have a solution, then?"
Wen Bin said, "Join forces."
"You've already sold off your family assets. How are you going to join forces with me?"
"I can't discuss the details over the phone. Can we meet?"
"Fine. Set a time."

The Great Heavenly King gazed outside and answered calmly, "It should have been."
"Huh? Should have been?"
