"What, you want me to find Wei Tiansheng and voluntarily withdraw from the Mortal Group? Father, are you serious? If I do such a treacherous thing, am I still a human?"

That day, Wu Yili received a call from Elder Wu, and upon hearing Elder Wu's request, Wu Yili became furious on the spot.

Elder Wu tried to persuade Wu Yili, "I know this will put you in a difficult position, but this concerns our Wu Clan. For the sake of the family's interests, we can only ask you to make a small sacrifice."

Wu Yili resolutely replied, "I can only tell you, it's impossible!"

Wu Yili immediately hung up the phone.

When Elder Wu called again, Wu Yili had already turned off her phone.

"This unfilial daughter!" Elder Wu was infuriated. He didn't expect Wu Yili to be so ruthless, disregarding the family's interests, and not willing to leave the Mortal Group.

Thus, a day passed. Elder Wu knew that if he didn't remit the funds to the suppliers today, everything would be finished.

He had already planned to personally go to Wu Yili today. No matter what, he must persuade Wu Yili. If Wu Yili didn't agree, he would consider threatening to expel her from the family.

Just as Elder Wu was about to set off, Wu Yili proactively returned home, bringing along Wei Yue'er.

It was Elder Wu's first time hearing the name Wei Yue'er, and he thought Wei Yue'er was from the Jiangnan Wei Family.

What a surprise! Wu Yili hadn't ruthlessly disregarded the family's interests after all. She must have gone to find Wei Tiansheng and negotiated things, so now she's brought someone from the Wei Family.

But Wei Yue'er introduced herself right away, "Hello, Elder Wu, my name is Wei Yue'er. I come from the Mortal Group, and I am President Lin's secretary."

What?

This was like a bucket of cold water poured over Elder Wu's head.

For god's sake!

This Wei Yue'er is actually from the Mortal Group.

"Mortal Group? What are you here for?" Elder Wu's face turned sullen.

Wei Yue'er followed up, "I'm here to discuss financial matters with you. Simply put, our Mortal Group will help the Wu Family through their difficulties..."

Upon hearing this, Elder Wu's previously gloomy expression immediately brightened, eyes lighting up. What, the Mortal Group is here to help?

Before this, he wouldn't dare hope for assistance from the Mortal Group.

The Wei Family had previously enticed Wu Yili away by providing help and promising funds. Lin Fan had taken Wu Yili without going through him, as if Lin Fan was unaware of his existence. Yet, miraculously, Lin Fan successfully won over Wu Yili in the end.

This left the Wu family in a predicament.

Therefore, Elder Wu had no fondness for the Mortal Group. He even thought the Mortal Group had ruined his plans and had a hostile attitude toward them.

He never considered that the Mortal Group would approach him because Lin Fan already had Wu Yili and didn't need him at all.

Now, with Wei Yue'er bringing up financial matters on behalf of the Mortal Group, Elder Wu was very surprised.

"Elder Wu, President Lin has always been keeping an eye on the situation at Wu Corporation and is very concerned. This time, I represent the Mortal Group, on behalf of President Lin, to help Wu Corporation solve its difficulties," Wei Yue'er said.

Elder Wu was very surprised. So Lin Fan didn't ignore him after all!

"Miss Wei, do you mean that Mr. Lin is willing to provide funds to our Wu Corporation?" Elder Wu asked eagerly.

If the Mortal Group was willing to provide funds, it could solve Wu Corporation's immediate crisis. This way, the Wu Family wouldn't need to seek help from the Wei Family, and Wu Yili wouldn't need to betray Lin Fan, leading to a happy ending.

Wei Yue'er said, "Provide funds? Our Mortal Group won't directly provide funds to Wu Corporation. This is President Lin's idea, and it's also my thought."

What?

Elder Wu's face changed instantly, "Our Wu Corporation needs money now. How is not providing funds considered help?"

Isn't the Mortal Group just fooling people!

Wei Yue'er smiled and said, "Don't be anxious, Elder Wu. Our Mortal Group can certainly give Wu Corporation a sum of money to help them through the current crisis. But President Lin and I believe that Wu Corporation's problems can't be solved with a single sum of money. If the underlying issues are not addressed, there will be another financial crisis. Conversely, if we fundamentally resolve Wu Corporation's problems and get it on the right track, Wu Corporation won't face such predicaments in the future and can turn loss into profit."

Elder Wu was stunned. Turn loss into profit?

Isn't this what he has been dreaming of!

"Can this really be achieved?" Elder Wu asked.

Wei Yue'er said, "We're here with the attitude to genuinely solve problems. Since Miss Wu will be collaborating with us in the future, President Lin values Miss Wu greatly and certainly doesn't see her as just a pawn in competition, so we have enough sincerity."

If the problems of Wu Corporation aren't resolved, the Wei Family might continue to cause trouble using this issue, inevitably affecting Wu Yili's work at Mortal. Therefore, Lin Fan had to help Wu Corporation eliminate this worry.

Seeing Wei Yue'er speaking sincerely, Elder Wu became interested. Comparatively, the sincerity from the Mortal Group was indeed higher than from the Wei Family. The Wei Family merely promised to provide financial assistance as a condition to thwart the cooperation between Wu Yili and Lin Fan.

Even if the Wei Family provided the funds, in the future, if Wu Corporation needed money again, by then Wu Corporation would have no value to the Wei Family. Would the Wei Family continue to give money?

Obviously not!

"Miss Wei, please come inside for a detailed discussion," Elder Wu immediately changed his attitude, saying respectfully.

"Alright," Wei Yue'er agreed happily, and followed Elder Wu into the Wei Family.

On the other side.

Wei Jiansheng walked into Wei Tiansheng's office.

"Yesterday, I already spoke with Wu Corporation's suppliers and pressured Wu Changping. I reckon that old man didn't sleep well last night. Today is the last deadline for Wu Corporation to remit payments. If they can't make the payment, their goods will be delayed, which would be a disaster for Wu Corporation," Wei Jiansheng said with a smile.

Wei Tiansheng was satisfied, saying, "Very good. A small Wu Corporation is nothing but an ant. You can negotiate terms with Wu Changping. As long as he can stop Wu Yili from going to the Mortal Group, we will continue to provide funding for him."

Wei Jiansheng said, "I'm sure that old Wu will try everything to stop Wu Yili, but I'm only afraid that Wu Yili won't comply. After all, she seems keen on joining the Mortal Group and partnering with Lin Fan to outsmart us."

Wei Tiansheng sneered, "If she won't comply, then we'll see how capable Wu Changping is. Even if Wu Yili ultimately joins the Mortal Group, we will make sure the Wu Family doesn't have a good time. We won't lose anything anyway. We can just watch it as an amusing show."

Wei Jiansheng said, "Father is right. Even if Wu Yili stays at the Mortal Group, she shouldn't have an easy time!"

Wei Tiansheng said, "If Wu Yili doesn't have an easy time, then Lin Fan won't either. We must give Lin Fan something to worry about."

The two of them laughed.

Wei Jiansheng said, "Uncle Chen, Wu Corporation's supplier, has already gone to the Wu Family. That old Wu will soon come begging you for mercy. I really look forward to it."
