Just now, I snatched that invaluable Rope-Curled Sword from Gu Yanzhou's hands, and now both Dongdao Group and Victory Group have received invitations to the antique appraisal auction.

It's like someone offering a pillow when I'm the sleepiest, the timing is perfect!

Thinking of this, Lu Yu couldn't help but chuckle.

Since this Dongdao Group can threaten Yunting to stop its investigation, I'll take this opportunity to attend this so-called antique appraisal auction tonight and meet the mysterious leader of Dongdao Group to see what kind of figure they truly are!

First, they split and reorganized the Lu Family's assets to form this so-called Dongdao Group, and now, without a trace, they threaten Yunting to cease its investigation.

There must be great trouble lurking behind Dongdao Group!

Thinking of this, a sharp glint flashed in Lu Yu's eyes, and he secretly remained vigilant within.

It's known that with Yunting's power and methods, few would dare to provoke him in Lin'an City.

Yet, after discovering Yunting's investigation, Dongdao Group wasted no time in using Yunting's under-the-table businesses to threaten him.

This shows that this so-called Dongdao Group must have considerable strength and is definitely not simple!

Squeak!

Just as Lu Yu was still pondering, the door of the security department suddenly opened, and Leng Qingqiu, wearing a white Bohemian long dress, walked directly in.

At this moment, the white Bohemian long dress perfectly accentuated Leng Qingqiu's exquisite figure, adding a sense of allure to her stern demeanor, making her particularly eye-catching.

She slowly approached Lu Yu, her beautiful eyes gazing at him, and said plainly, "Are you free tonight?"

Though Leng Qingqiu's words were calm, a peculiar expression flickered beneath her eyes.

Although she knew of Lu Yu's experience on Paradise Island, she still sensed a mysterious aura about him.

"Of course, I'm free,"

Hearing Leng Qingqiu's words, Lu Yu smiled slightly and said.

Now, he knew that Leng Qingqiu came to him because of the antique appraisal auction tonight, but he still pretended to be unaware to prevent Leng Qingqiu from becoming overly curious: "Do you need anything?"

"Tonight, there's a large antique appraisal auction at Ink Pavilion in Lin'an City, and I'd like you to accompany me."

As she spoke, Leng Qingqiu took out a black invitation card with gold embossing and placed it before Lu Yu.

The invitation, square-shaped with golden embossed letters complementing the black background, exuded an air of sophistication.

"Are you attending such an event yourself?"

Glancing at the invitation on the table, Lu Yu smiled and said, "You were just numbed by noise darts' central nervous system yesterday, isn't it too soon to attend such an event today?"

Lu Yu was puzzled; usually, Leng Qingqiu trusted Xia Bing to handle tasks like signing contracts, yet now, she personally attended such an ordinary auction.

"I don't really want to go, but this time I have to."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, a hint of helplessness appeared on Leng Qingqiu's charming face as she looked at Lu Yu. "The Dongdao Group's leader, who recently emerged in Lin'an City, will be making their first appearance, and my father is very interested in one of the antiques."

Leng Qingqiu paused slightly, then said, "I'm going this time mainly to meet the Dongdao Group's leader and to buy that antique for my father!"

Her voice revealed traces of reluctance, clearly showing her disinterest in the auction.

"The Dongdao Group's leader is making their first appearance?"

Hearing Leng Qingqiu's words, Lu Yu slightly froze, looking at her. "Has the Dongdao Group's leader never appeared in public before?"

So far, Lu Yu increasingly finds the Dongdao Group to be quite unusual.

According to the information provided by Leng Huai Xin, despite its brief existence, Dongdao Group has substantial financial power and has rapidly risen in Lin'an City with great assertiveness.

In the business world, a rapidly rising company whose leader rarely appears in public is illogical.

Combined with what Yunting said, Lu Yu now sees the Dongdao Group as riddled with mysteries!

"That's right."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Leng Qingqiu nodded. "The Dongdao Group has been very discreet from its inception, quietly growing. This is their first public appearance, drawing many colleagues to the auction to see their leader!"

Listening to this, Lu Yu couldn't help but nod, showing a thoughtful expression in his eyes.

According to business practices, it's quite normal for a company formed by splitting and reorganizing Lu Family's assets to have a silent presence and continue its restructuring process.

This explains why Dongdao Group was initially inconspicuous.

But now, the company has risen with force, and its leader suddenly appears. What are they planning?

Moreover, the prior threats to Yunting indicate that Dongdao Group has significant means!

For a moment, even Lu Yu wasn't sure what Dongdao Group truly aimed to achieve!

Looks like attending this antique appraisal auction is a necessity for me!

Thinking this, Lu Yu remained expressionless, looking at Leng Qingqiu with a slight smile and said, "Alright, in that case, I'll accompany you to check it out."

Now, my understanding of Dongdao Group comes entirely from the information in Leng Huai Xin's storage card; beyond that, I know nothing else about Dongdao Group.

That's precisely why I'm planning to see what kind of person the Dongdao Group's leader is.

Once we meet, I'll have an initial understanding of Dongdao Group!

"In that case, at 8:30 tonight, drive over to pick me up, and we'll go together."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Leng Qingqiu nodded, glancing at the box containing the Rope-Curled Sword beside Lu Yu before slowly turning and walking out of his office.

"No problem, I'll definitely be on time tonight."

Saying this, Lu Yu caressed the box containing the Rope-Curled Sword, his lips curling into a faintly serene smile.
