"Alright, here." Qin Yuanfeng gave his laptop to Zhou Jingren. "It's too pixelated, but if you give me some time, I can fix it."

"Alright, send me the better one once you are done." Zhou Jingren said, face grim. He then turned towards Lily. "This has nothing to do with us. We should not dabble into things like this."

"Oh! No… no… of course not. I am not going to do something about this matter. I am not about to involve myself in something that involves terrorists and national security." She assured him. "However… I have something to ask you. A favor… of course, I am willing to shoulder the expenses and consequences."

"You sound serious?" Zhou Jingren lifted an eyebrow.

"I am serious. Yuanfeng… why don't you give Jingren the current location of the Corneel Oils and Co. Oil Tankers all around Africa." She uttered. In response, Qin Yuanfeng immediately typed something on his laptop. After a few seconds, the interface changed, showing all the routes and locations of the Corneel's tankers.

"You wanted to hijack them?" Zhou Jingren said, surprised flashed in his eyes.

"People in pressure…. Show their real colors," Lily said as she sat opposite him, the same smile on her face. "Leon thinks too highly of himself and his company, thinking that anyone would invest their money just because of their potential. Well… I am taking it away — their pride."

"You — " Qin Yuanfeng gulped. "Isn't that too cruel? Considering… they did nothing to you and the company?"

"Yet." Lily's stern gaze met her brother's confused one. "They have done nothing against me yet. And I would not wait for that to happen."

"How certain are you that they will do something against you? Perhaps he is only another prideful businessman who took pride in his accomplishments. We all know someone like that. People who worked hard for their company and are proud of their achievements."

"And… you think that is normal for a businessman?" Lily scoffed.

"Isn't it?"

"No." Lily shook her head. "It is normal for us to be prideful, but this will depend on the entire situation in front of us. Pride is not a businessman's greatest trait, its adaptability. A wise businessman knows how to adapt to any environment. Sun Tzu's Art of war, chapter 1 stated If he is secure at all points, be prepared for him. If he is in superior strength, evade him. If your opponent is of choleric temper, seek to irritate him. Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant. Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are unexpected." Lily quoted before smiling at her brother. "All these…. Shows only one trait and that is… being adaptable to any situation."

Qin Yuanfeng turned silent as he looked at Zhou Jingren's reaction or his lack of reaction. The man did not even show any surprise or disappointments in his wife's words.

"How many?" Zhou Jingren asked, without asking any more questions about the reasoning behind Lily's words.

"Four," Lily uttered. "I want one tomorrow and three in the next following days. Is that doable?"

He stared at the screen for a few seconds before he nodded. "Doable. What are you planning to do with the oil?"

"Sell it use the money for supplies and do it all over again," Lily said. "I want to see his reaction tomorrow. I want to know how he faces something like this when I am in front of him." She uttered as she turned towards her brother's eyes. "This is called, using the conquered foe to augment one's own strength."

Qin Yuanfeng nodded, "Art of war, chapter two."

"Good job." She smiled, impressed at her own brother's quick thinking. 

"So your goal is just to see how they handle it? Their reaction?" Qin Yuanfeng asked. This time it was Zhou Jingren who answered.

"Her goal is victory."

"How so? This action will only create a domino effect on the world market. An attack like that— could affect the world market."

"It will affect the worth of their company." Lily answered. "It will dampen their morale and confidence. And… people with low morale… are the easiest to manipulate."

For the umpteenth time, Qin Yuanfeng nodded. The lesson is always not to underestimate a pregnant woman, who is sitting at the pinnacle of the business industry for years. Pursing his lips, he nodded again. The lesson is not to underestimate his sister.

"I can assemble the men tonight, attack at dawn or early in the morning." Zhou Jingren continued. "Africa… it will take a few hours for Bei Tian to arrive there. But our people are always ready."

"Good." Lily beamed as she stood from her seat. "There are only 4 people including Bei Tian who will know of this plan," Lily said. "No one else — Aside from the four of us, no one else should know this." The other two men nodded, their expression serious. Seeing this, Lily beamed at the two. "Good. I will leave. I needed a bath." She walked out of the office after giving her husband a kiss.

Lilian is an upright woman who never involves herself in the black market and everyone in the industry that Lily is willing to uphold this trait. They were wrong. 

With her enemies looming around, waiting for her to make a small mistake so they could strike her down, Lily is willing to do everything to keep her empire safe, to keep her family safe. When Lily arrived in the master's bedroom, she immediately took her clothes off and went to have a hot bath, enjoying the state of silence inside the bathroom.

She then started humming a tune as she closed her eyes. Lilian's words then rang inside her head.

'The business world is a huge war zone. Be ready to defend yourself, or you will lose. And yes... you should defend yourself before they even made their move. In that way, you are prepared and ready for the consequences of the war.'
