【Have you ever regretted it? 】 Lying on the sickbed, Lu Yiming thought back to his life, and found that he had too many regrets. Did he want to become evil? He didn’t want to be alone either! But fate played tricks on him. Living a new life, Lu Yiming starts at a crossroads in life. This time, he wants to live his own life. Please don’t call me a dandy. If I want to be a dandy, I want to be the strongest dandy! Su Rongrong, you can’t escape from my grasp this time! Just now, The luxurious ward of China’s top private hospital seems particularly deserted. In the huge ward, there was no one else except Lu Yiming who was lying on the sickbed. A hero who has been in power for decades is so lonely in the last stage of his life. 【Do you regret it? 】 The questions in his mind made Lu Yiming try hard to open his eyes. The glorious first half of his life suddenly encountered a huge change. In order to return to the top, Lu Yiming walked on the bottom line of the abyss. To achieve the goal, use any means necessary. Everyone is a pawn and everyone can betray. Lu Yiming finally returned to the top of the pyramid and became one of the most powerful people. But so what? The couple fell out and he ended up being alone. So what if you have countless wealth? After all, you can’t take anything with you. 【Have you ever regretted it? 】 Lu Yiming: So what if I regret it? 【Then do it again. 】 【System binding…】 【10%….15%…30%…55%…99%…】 A flash of white light, and time goes back. “hiss…” Lu Yiming only felt a dazzling white light. I felt the changes in my body. My originally cloudy mind became exceptionally clear at this moment, and I experienced a long lost feeling. When the white light fades. Lu Yiming was stunned by the scene before him. [System: Host binding successful, sin value: 1111799 (rapidly rising…)] Sin value? What is this? But for Lu Yiming, these are not the main points. The main point at this moment is… He was lying on the big bed in the hotel suite, and beneath him was her unconscious body. Is it her? ! Lu Yiming’s pupils dilated. Lu Yiming will never forget this scene. Su Rongrong. The well deserved campus beauty of Shanghai University and the dream goddess of countless young talents. At this moment, the goddess was naked, and the two of them met each other so frankly. Just one step, just one more step, and he would be able to completely possess Su Rongrong. All Lu Yiming needs to do is a little earlier… Are you back? Really back?! But why at this critical juncture? In the previous life, Lu Yiming was also Su Rongrong’s admirer. It’s a pity that Su Rongrong has no good feelings towards this rich and wealthy young man. Lu Yiming tried many methods but failed to impress the other party. On the eve of graduation, Lu Yiming, instigated by his bad friends, took a risk. This led to a disaster. At the same time, the Lu family began to decline. Who would have thought that Su Rongrong’s family was actually a wealthy family that had been hidden in Su Province for hundreds of years. Such an invisible family is totally incomparable to the nouveau riche Lu family. He raped Su Rongrong and committed a serious mistake. The head of the Su family was furious and vowed to kill all the members of the Lu family. Although my father had the support of a big boss behind him, he still started the countdown to the complete decline of the Lu family. This also laid the groundwork for everything that happened afterwards. If I remember correctly, it won’t be long before Su Rongrong wakes up. With the soft fragrance in his arms, how could Lu Yiming have any dirty thoughts at this moment? Now is the time to run away? Just pretend nothing happened. Maybe that’s a solution. Just when Lu Yiming wanted to turn over and get out of bed. Su Rongrong opened her confused eyes. This scene is too familiar. In her previous life, when Su Rongrong woke up, she was extremely crazy. No matter how Su Rongrong begged and yelled, he ignored her as he was horny. I will never forget Su Rongrong’s desperate look. And at this moment, their eyes met. Su Rongrong’s gaze changed from confusion to clarity, from fear to contempt. “If I say someone wants to frame me, will you believe me?” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Shameless, the man in front of me is so shameless! Framed? Use myself to frame you, Lu Yiming? Su Rongrong knew very well what kind of person Lu Yiming was. During his four years in college, Lu Yiming was a complete playboy, partying every night and living a life of drunkenness and dreams. He is surrounded by a bunch of bad friends. This time, he actually stretched out his evil claws to himself. Born as the eldest daughter of the Su family, Su Rongrong is relatively rational. He knew that if he provoked Lu Yiming at this moment, he would be the one who suffered the consequences. “Go down.” “good.” Lu Yiming was very clear about how terrifying Su Rongrong was. Although he looks harmless, he is actually full of evil intentions and causes Lu Yiming to suffer a lot. It was fun for a while, but it brought hardship to the Lu family. Lu Yiming wanted to turn over and get out of bed, but the problem was that he was also naked at the moment. Subconsciously pulled the quilt over. “Ah! Bastard!” Lu Yiming seemed to have forgotten that, apart from himself, Su Rongrong on the bed was also naked like himself. Lu Yiming couldn’t help swallowing his saliva when he suddenly saw the spring light. This figure is like a meticulous sculpture. It is true that the land and water shape the people. Wait, what am I thinking about? Lu Yiming swore that this was really just his subconscious reaction. “I…” “you…” “Close your dog eyes!” “What should I do then?” “Lu Yiming, are you still a man?” “You mean me?” “That’s enough! Get out of here.” In a panic, Lu Yiming picked up the clothes scattered on the floor and fled the bedroom in embarrassment. After a long period of silence, Su Rongrong finally opened her beautiful eyes. After making sure that Lu Yiming had left, she hurriedly picked up the underwear that was scattered on the ground. However, I still can’t find my own lace. Such a ridiculous scene actually happened in a suite in a five star hotel. At this time, Lu Yiming was sitting on the sofa in the living room. With an incredible look on his face, he realized that he was really back. Although the timing is too weird. In the mirror is my younger self. Although he looked a little embarrassed, he was handsome when he was young and did have enough capital. Lu Yiming subconsciously wanted to take out a cigarette from his trouser pocket. I didn’t get a cigarette, but what I got was a black lace edged one… this… By the way, in my previous life, I wanted to keep it as a souvenir. So at the beginning, I put this thing in my trouser pocket. It seems that I was a little perverted in my previous life. Just when Lu Yiming was thinking about whether he should return the item to its original owner. Su Rongrong, neatly dressed, just appeared. “abnormal!” Su Rongrong felt like she was about to explode. She never thought that the lace that she couldn’t find was actually in Lu Yiming’s hands. Moreover, he was still looking at it carefully. This extremely shameless man has no shame at all. “How about you listen to my explanation?” No matter how thick skinned Lu Yiming was, he was extremely embarrassed at this moment. He was caught red handed and could not wash himself clean even if he jumped into the Yellow River. “I was really framed. Don’t worry, I will definitely give you an explanation. I’ll leave the things here…” In this situation, nothing you say will be of any use. Let Su Rongrong calm down first, and I also need to sort out my thoughts. Everything happened too suddenly. Lu Yiming knew clearly that Su Rongrong was a typical example of a person who was gentle on the outside but strong on the inside. If today’s matter was not handled properly, the Lu family would face severe revenge. Everything that happened in the last life must never happen again in this life. Under Su Rongrong’s cold gaze, Lu Yiming left the suite. [System: Sin value: 1111799] Lu Yiming himself did not notice that this so called sin value did not continue to rise, but remained at 1111799. In the hotel lobby coffee bar, four young people were talking and laughing loudly without caring about the consequences. As for the content, it is really unbearable to watch. And these people were exactly Lu Yiming’s bad friends during his absurd years. “Tsk tsk, Young Master Lu must be very happy this time, that’s Su Rongrong.” “Nonsense, what’s wrong with Su Rongrong? No matter how beautiful she is, she is still a woman. Our Master Lu has plenty of ways to deal with it.” “What do you think? If Young Master Lu gets tired of playing with Su Rongrong, will he give us some sex?” “What are you thinking? Give up this idea as soon as possible. If you really make Young Master Lu unhappy, our life will be miserable.” Several people spoke without reservation, but it was obvious that they were still very afraid of Lu Yiming in their hearts. Yes, these people’s families all rely on the Lu family for their livelihood. Normally, he was very flattering and attentive to Lu Yiming. This time, it was one of them who came up with the idea to make Su Rongrong unconscious and wanted to force herself on her. Although this was the first time they had done this, in the eyes of several people, there was nothing in the Demon City that the Lu family could not handle. What’s wrong with playing with a woman? It is Su Rongrong’s blessing that Mr. Lu likes her. It’s Su Rongrong’s fault for being too low key at school. Once the true identity is revealed, the entire Demon City will not be able to withstand the wrath of the Su family. “Huh? Why did Master Lu come out?” “No way, it’s only been a short time, are you dazed?” “That’s right. Will our Master Lu let Su Rongrong go without making trouble until the evening?” It has only been half an hour in total. It doesn’t match Mr. Lu’s ability. “Shh, don’t talk nonsense, Mr. Lu doesn’t look very good.” Lu Yiming walked along with a cold expression on his face. It was indeed them. Zhang Zun, Wang Kun, Li Rui, Fan Cheng. They are known as his four Dharma protectors. I often teach myself this on a daily basis. In the previous life, the Lu family was in decline, and these four people immediately changed their attitudes accordingly. Among them, Zhang Zun even added insult to injury. Lu Yiming clearly remembered that when the Lu family was in decline, he was desperate and went to four people to borrow money in order to make a comeback. What’s the result? In addition to the endless ridicule, Zhang Zun also humiliated himself to the utmost. Thinking of this, Lu Yiming’s eyes became even colder. I felt a little strange in my previous life. Zhang Zun clearly told me that I had used enough medicine. But why did Su Rongrong wake up in half an hour? Lu Yiming foolishly thought that it was caused by his own madness. But now it seems that some of them have been dissatisfied with me for a long time. He secretly set a trap for himself. But why is the target Su Rongrong? These mysteries still need Lu Yiming to solve. “Mr. Lu, why did you come down?” “Yes, Mr. Lu, we thought we would at least wait until dark.” The four of them knew very well how much Lu Yiming was obsessed with Su Rongrong. I originally thought that after succeeding, Lu Yiming would definitely make the most of his money, but I didn’t expect Lu Yiming to appear at this moment. “What’s the fun in sleeping dead?” Lu Yiming remained calm and sat on the sofa with his legs crossed. When it comes to acting skills, Lu Yiming is naturally no less capable. What had Lu Yiming not experienced in his previous life? “It turns out that Master Lu likes to resist.” “Tsk tsk, don’t say it, it really lacks some fun.” A few people were stunned at first, and then immediately continued speaking along with Lu Yiming’s words. “Why don’t we go up and tie him up? We’ve got plenty of time anyway.” Zhang Zun suddenly spoke, and the vulgarity in his eyes made Lu Yiming frown slightly. “Zhang Zun, if I remember correctly, it was you who gave Su Rongrong the drug?” “Mr. Lu, I didn’t expect you didn’t like this tune.” Seeing that Lu Yiming was dissatisfied, Zhang Zun immediately explained. However, his eyes flickered, as if he was trying hard to hide something. Zhang Zun didn’t notice the change in Lu Yiming’s eyes and thought he had gotten away with it. Lu Yiming: It turned out to be him. This bastard is behind this. Could it be that Zhang Zun had already found out about Su Rongrong’s background, so he framed me? No, even I didn’t notice anything unusual about Su Rongrong. But why? Zhang Zun’s father is also a veteran in the company. He is the director of the General Affairs Department and holds considerable power in the company. My father is nostalgic and takes good care of the brothers who built the empire with him. Logically speaking, Zhang Zun should have no reason to hate himself. “No need, just pretend this never happened.” “Well… Mr. Lu, we’ve already done it, so why not… Women, don’t they value their reputation the most? Once they lose their virginity, they might compromise. Then you can get the beauty back.” If Lu Yiming in his previous life had heard such temptation, he might have been moved. But for Lu Yiming at this moment, such a simple method was really not presentable. “Okay, you guys go away.” Lu Yiming waved his hand as if he was shooing away a fly. However, in the coming time, I have to pay close attention to Zhang Zun. Seeing that Lu Yiming was not in a good mood, the four of them stopped talking, nodded, and left the hotel lobby. As for all the expenses, they were naturally charged to Lu Yiming’s account. This has long become a habit. In Lu Yiming’s previous life, this was also natural. After all, they are all playing with me, so there is no problem with placing orders. But now it seems that these guys are living a life of debauchery and drinking, while I have become the one who is taken advantage of. When I think about it, I really feel unwilling to accept it. “waiter.” Lu Yiming waved his hand and called a waiter over. “What do you want, Master Lu?” “Buy a set of clothes in this size and send it to my room.” This suite was booked by Lu Yiming. The hotel staff naturally knew Lu Yiming, the God of Wealth. He took the note respectfully. At this time, in the suite booked by Lu Xun. Su Rongrong locked the door and checked the room from top to bottom. Apart from still not having much strength, there was nothing unusual about him. This made Su Rongrong feel relieved. Fortunately, I woke up early and the worst situation did not happen. “asshole.” Alone, Su Rongrong put aside her pretense of being strong. After all, Su Rongrong has not yet fully entered the society, and it is impossible for her to say that she is not afraid when encountering such a change. I didn’t expect that bastard Lu Yiming would use such despicable means. But Su Rongrong didn’t understand. It had clearly come to the last step, so why did Lu Yiming suddenly let her go? Could it be that he has a change of heart? No, how could such a bastard have a change of heart? Designed? Is this possible? Su Rongrong felt her mind was a little confused. Should I take revenge? Should I tell my family about this? After all, I am a girl and I suffered a great loss. Although the worst thing did not happen, her body was seen thoroughly by the bastard Lu Yiming. Thinking of this, Su Rongrong felt a chill. What a great Lu family. The Lu family is just a “nouveau riche” that has risen recently. In Shanghai, the Lu family has businesses all over the place, and with the spring breeze of reform and opening up, the Lu family became the first group of people to become rich. But compared with the Su family, it still lacks a lot of foundation. Once a war breaks out, there will be a certain price to pay. After all, there are many similar aristocratic families in China. As people are on guard against each other, the Su family’s actions are likely to cause a chain reaction. Just as Su Rongrong was weighing the pros and cons, there was a sudden knock on the door. “who?!” Could it be that that bastard dare to come back? “Hello, waiter, these are the clothes Mr. Lu asked me to deliver.” “Put it at the door.” After making sure that there was no one outside, Su Rongrong opened the door a crack and took the packaging bag from the door in. Lu Yiming: System? Are you there? [System: You finally remembered me? The host’s reaction is really a beat slow.] Lu Yiming: What do you mean by being a step behind? The key point is that the timing of my return was too exciting, and I almost lost control. In his previous life, Lu Yiming had countless women, but if you ask who is the most unforgettable one, Su Rongrong is definitely number one. Forget it, these are all things from the previous life. What Lu Yiming wants to figure out most now is why he came back? [System: The full name of this system: Reform yourself, start a new life, the prodigal son returns…] Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Could you please get to the point? [System: The key point is that the host repented at the last moment of his death. The system will help the host start a new life. Today is the first step to a good start.] Lu Yiming: What about the sin value? [System: The host’s current sin value is 1111799, all of which are accumulated in the previous life. Eventually, all sin values must be cleared. This is also the price of rebirth.] Lu Yiming: I didn’t understand. [System: In simple terms, the sin value is reset to zero, and everything the host wants, family, love, and friendship are all restored. ] Lu Yiming: Is this the person I need? What a joke! When have I ever lacked women? [System: You are lacking, otherwise you wouldn’t be regretting it on your sickbed. ] Contact: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What nonsense are you talking about. Lu Yiming: What will happen if we don’t clear it? [System: The family will be destroyed and all people related to the Lu family will be affected.] Lu Yiming: That’s cruel enough. Fortunately, I stopped in time. Uh, no, I controlled that thing in time. Doesn’t it offset the sin value? [System: Sin value is being cleared, current sin value is 1111699.] Lu Yiming: 100 points? Is this too much? I just want to ask myself, how many things did I do in my previous life that angered God and people? Lu Yiming was certain that he was here in this life to repay his debts. In his previous life, Lu Yiming used every possible means to rise again. How many people were implicated? How many happy families have been destroyed? How many people have been harmed directly or indirectly by themselves? Although Lu Yiming eventually escaped severe punishment from the law, the guilt value represents everything. And for Lu Yiming, who has lived a new life, what path should he choose? Lu Yiming had to fall into deep thought. For half an hour, Lu Yiming just sat there stupidly. Until the cell phone rang. Classic Nokia ringtones. This voice made Lu Yiming a little dazed. I haven’t heard such a ringtone for a long time. In 1995, in the Chinese market, the two giants Nokia and Motorola were fighting fiercely. Who would have thought that 20 years later, these two giants in the mobile phone industry would withdraw from the stage of mainstream mobile phones. Nokia 1011. The world’s first GSM mobile phone, and also the first mobile phone capable of sending text messages. In the eyes of ordinary people, this mobile phone is undoubtedly a symbol of status. But in Lu Yiming’s opinion, it was really stupid. “Hello.” “You bastard! Where are you? I told you that today’s matter is very important, can you please pay attention!” I heard my father’s roar over the phone. Lu Aijun, Lu Yiming’s father, is a man of outstanding abilities and good at taking advantage of opportunities. After retiring from the army, Lu Aijun started his own business and did business with the Russians, thus earning his first pot of gold. Later, it joined hands with the Foreign Trade Bureau and started foreign trade business. Lu Aijun had good fortune in wealth. In just twenty years, he had accumulated enough wealth. Since the introduction of stocks, Lu Aijun has plunged headfirst into the stock market. From the big room all the way forward. With multi line development, the entire Lu Group is making a lot of money. The only thing that makes Lu Aijun unhappy is his only son Lu Yiming. The reason why he named his son Lu Yiming was because he hoped his son would become a big shot in the future. But this bastard is good. He didn’t learn the good things and learned all the bad things like walking the birds and teasing the dogs. I’m about to graduate, but I haven’t been doing anything serious all day. I originally wanted to let my son work in the company for a few years, but Lu Yiming didn’t care about the family business at all. All he thinks about is a life of debauchery. The father and son simply couldn’t talk to each other. This period of time will be a very critical time node for Lu Aijun. A few days ago, the two leaders of Wanguo Securities and Liao Guofa suddenly came to Lu Aijun. He wants to join forces with the Lu Group to stir up a bloody storm in the bond market. Lu Aijun naturally had to be extremely cautious about such an important matter. However, he had important matters to attend to these two days and could only remotely command Lu Yiming to stay in the Magic City. But who could have thought that this bastard would actually disappear for him. Now that he had finally managed to contact Lu Yiming, he naturally vented all his anger. “You bastard, if anything goes wrong with this, your good days will be over!” You know, for this war, Lu Aijun gambled all the group’s working capital. If they lose, the Lu Group will be seriously damaged. God knows what situation we will face then. “Dad, I just…” “Don’t talk nonsense to me, hurry to the sales department, and remember, no matter how many orders come in, we have to take them.” The emergency meeting is about to begin. This foreign trade summit will determine the distribution of interests for the next ten years, so Lu Aijun has to take it seriously. There was a busy tone on the phone. At this time, Lu Yiming was completely awake. 327 incident! How could I have forgotten such an important thing? In the previous life, I did that to Su Rongrong, so naturally the Su family would not let it go. To be honest, the Su family had many concerns when they wanted to take action against the Lu family. After all, Lu Aijun has the support of a wealthy family behind him. If they really fight to the death, the Su family will also suffer huge losses. However, at this critical juncture, Lu Aijun made a wrong decision. Rashly got involved in the 327 incident. In the end, they suffered a crushing defeat and the Lu Group’s working capital was completely exhausted. The Su family seized this once in a lifetime opportunity and launched an all out attack on the Lu family. Eventually, in order to save his only son, Lu Aijun handed over the Lu Group to someone else. Having lost his bargaining chips, Lu Aijun was completely abandoned by the family behind him. The Lu family was completely brought to ruin. Lu Aijun died of grief and anger within a few years. Lu Yiming, the one who caused all this, has completely turned evil. In order to get back to the top, use all means. Wait, today, today. February 23, 1995. I looked at the time on my phone. 2 p.m. Only two hours left? Lu Yiming’s pupils trembled violently. Lu Yiming knew very well that if he didn’t change all this in time. The Lu Group will be dragged into the vortex and there will be no recovery. By then, even without the Su family, the Lu family would have to struggle to survive due to the depletion of working capital. If I want to recover, I’m afraid ten years won’t be enough. The most important thing is that it was because of my blind self confidence in my previous life. Many retail investors went bankrupt in an instant and countless people jumped off buildings that night. this… Once something like this happens, I’m afraid… “Mr. Lu, your friend?” Seeing Lu Yiming was about to leave, the lobby manager immediately came up to him. A God of Wealth like Mr. Lu must be well served. “You can stay as long as you want. If all the conditions are met, it will be on my account.” Lu Yiming naturally knew who the other party was referring to. The issue of Su Rongrong has not been resolved yet, but for Lu Yiming, the most important thing at the moment is the national debt. This is not just the Lu Group’s working capital. It involves so many people. Many families have been broken up because of this, and many people have jumped off the rooftops because they couldn’t bear the thought. That night, blood literally flowed like a river. If I don’t stop it, I will feel guilty. “Understood, Mr. Lu, rest assured, leave this matter to me, and I will make the other party feel at home.” The lobby manager immediately assured. I have never seen Master Lu attach so much importance to seducing a woman. The manager naturally knew what to do. A Ferrari 348 was parked in front of the hotel. Its fiery red body attracted the attention of countless passers by. This Ferrari 348 is equipped with a 3.4 liter four cam 32 valve engine, dry sump, mid mounted V 8, 296 horsepower, and a 0 100 acceleration of 5.3 seconds. It is the most eye catching presence on the roads of Shanghai. Although it is not the first Ferrari in China, it is definitely the only one in Shanghai. In this era, with the price of US$140,000, you can buy ten commercial houses in the city center. For this car, Lu Aiguo begged his father for a long time. This is what I wanted. The roar of the supercar attracted the attention of countless people. In his previous life, this Ferrari brought Lu Yiming a great sense of superiority. But with the collapse of the Lu Group, this Ferrari was sold to someone else and had no connection with Lu Yiming anymore. Twenty years later, Lu Yiming rose again and spent a lot of money to buy back the 348 that had been gathering dust in the warehouse. For Lu Yiming, this may be a thought about his father. Of course, this is all later. At this time, Lu Yiming was driving the Ferrari towards the exchange. There is not much time left for Lu Yiming. Ten minutes after the Ferrari drove away. Su Rongrong, wearing a skirt, appeared in the lobby. Although I don’t want to see Lu Yiming again, this matter must be explained. Su Rongrong didn’t want to wear the clothes Lu Yiming gave her, but her original skirt was torn. Looking at the torn part of her skirt, Su Rongrong was furious. This is blatant evidence of guilt. But when Su Rongrong looked up, there was no sign of Lu Yiming. “Miss, are you looking for Mr. Lu?” When the lobby manager saw Su Rongrong, he came over happily. “Where are the others?” “This… Mr. Lu has to go out for something urgent. Look, if you need anything, you can tell me and I will… Miss, Miss, what are you doing?” The lobby manager looked at Su Rongrong in surprise as she turned and left. I just want to ask, what exactly happened? This lady’s face looks quite bad. Well, I don’t dare to get involved in Mr. Lu’s affairs. I could only watch Su Rongrong leave the hotel. “Lu Yiming.” A sound of gnashing teeth came out of Su Rongrong’s mouth. This hotel left Su Rongrong with humiliation. This matter cannot be let go like this. In Su Rongrong’s mind, there was no urgent matter for Lu Yiming, this playboy. He fled the hotel simply because he was afraid of being held accountable later. Just a shameless coward. To be honest, although Su Rongrong was full of anger at this time, how to deal with this matter was also a problem for her. Lu Yiming stopped at the most critical moment. Even if he used his family connections, the most he would be charged with would be indecent assault. This does not pose any threat to Lu Yiming. Su Rongrong didn’t want to let Lu Yiming go so easily. The physical and mental humiliation cannot be resolved so easily. As for Lu Yiming at this time, he was driving a Ferrari and stopped at the door of the Second Exchange. “Mr. Lu, you are finally here.” When the Lu Group employees saw Ferrari, their eyes lit up. In Shanghai, there is only one Ferrari 348, representing Mr. Lu. There’s nothing I can do about it, since he comes from a good family. To be honest, in the group, most people look down on a playboy like Lu Yiming. But the entire company belongs to the Lu family. As an employee, I can only be respectful when facing Mr. Lu. “Where’s Sister Lily?” “Assistant Li is waiting for you inside.” The Sister Lily that Lu Yiming mentioned was actually his father’s special assistant. She is very capable and beautiful. When she first entered the Lu Group, she was considered just a useless “vase”. But half a month later, everyone in the group recognized Assistant Li’s abilities. It can be said that he is the person Mr. Lu trusts the most in the company. “knew.” The group specially booked a VIP room in the Second Exchange. The VIP lounge is different from the so called VIP room. Nowadays, whether it is stock trading or other types of transactions, exchanges are the best choice. In the days when the Internet was not well developed, information from exchanges was the most up to date. And it is the most convenient to buy and sell. Ordinary retail investors can only stay on the first floor and watch the public big screen. The VIP room is for bosses with capital of more than 200,000 yuan. Equipped with a computer to facilitate transactions. As for the VIP lounge, it is not open on weekdays. Moreover, for retail investors, the bosses sitting in the big investor rooms are already the ones they need to look up to. As for the customers in the VIP lounge, they only exist in legends. Only those with transactions involving more than 5 million yuan are eligible to use the VIP lounge. What kind of concept is this? For ordinary people of this era, it is an astronomical figure. “Mr. Lu.” “Little boss.” As Lu Xun pushed the door open and walked in, the staff of Lu Group inside immediately stood up to greet him. In the eyes of this group of people, Lu Yiming, who is about to graduate from university, will definitely come to the company to take over. By then, Mr. Lu might become his direct superior. Take advantage of this opportunity to flatter the person. Otherwise it won’t be your turn. “Coming?” The only one who didn’t stand up was Li Li. It’s not that he relies on his status as a special assistant. But Li Li has always looked down on Lu Yiming. Yes, she looked down on others, and unlike others, Li Li showed it all on her face. It is no secret in the company that Lu Yiming and Li Li do not have a good relationship. Li Li’s ability is her confidence. In Lu Yiming’s previous life, Li Li relied on her own abilities to act arrogantly in front of him. Also, she dresses up carefully every day, isn’t it just to seduce her father? Do you really think I can’t see it? Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Thinking about it now, it was really childish and ridiculous. Why did I have such immature thoughts back then? It was not until many years later that Lu Yiming realized that if he wanted to gain Li Li’s respect, he must have the ability to match it. Instead of being like he is now, with the halo of Mr. Lu, he is essentially a good for nothing playboy. “Sister Lily.” “Um?” Li Li: What tricks is this boy trying to play? When had Lu Yiming ever been so respectful to him? Call sister? Who in the Lu Group can enjoy such treatment? When he first met Li Li, Lu Yiming flirted with her out of habit. This happened a few years ago. How old was Lu Xun at that time? The first impression left on Li Li was that he was undoubtedly a little pervert. Back then, Li Li taught Lu Yiming a good lesson and let him know what society is. The “hatred” between the two also started from that time. To the employees of Lu Group, it was no surprise that they would quarrel as soon as they met. But no one expected that Mr. Lu would suddenly change his personality today? “Why? Sister Lily is surprised?” “No matter what tricks you play, please remember that today is very important to your father and the entire Lu Group.” Li Li didn’t know what Lu Yiming was up to, but today was of great significance to the Lu Group. We must not let Lu Yiming ruin things. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Sure enough, impression is something that cannot be changed in a short period of time. This is normal. After all, I am usually a bit… “Of course, I understand. I hope Sister Lily can cooperate with me today.” Lu Yiming nodded and pulled out the chair next to Li Li. In the previous life, the Lu Group encountered great changes and morale was low. Only Li Li had been working hard to maintain the basic operation of the Lu Group. It’s a pity that Lu Yiming’s misfortune was too great. Even if Li Li had supernatural powers, she couldn’t change the situation. The Lu Group collapsed, and it was the State owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission that took over the Lu Group. At that time, a leader was impressed by Li Li’s outstanding abilities and wanted to keep her with a high salary, so he offered her a corresponding position. Logically speaking, Li Li should be ecstatic. But Li Li refused without even considering it. After the Lu family fell, Li Li seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. Until Lu Yiming regained his spirits and wanted to start over again. Li Li appeared in front of Lu Yiming. At that time, Lu Yiming was penniless, and no one believed that Lu Yiming could revive the Lu family. Under such circumstances, Li Li stood firmly by Lu Yiming’s side. Lu Yiming’s rapid development is inseparable from Li Li’s strong support. However, the two people have different philosophies. Lu Yiming is too impatient. In the process of development, Lu Yiming has long lost the awe that a businessman should have. Li Li’s repeated attempts to persuade him were fruitless; Lu Yiming had already lost himself in power and wealth. In the end, after Lu Yiming gained a firm foothold, Li Li chose to leave again. Thinking of everything that happened in his previous life, Lu Yiming couldn’t help but feel deeply moved. “Mr. Lu? Mr. Lu?!” “What?” “Mr. Lu, everyone is waiting for you.” The fact that Mr. Lu handed this matter over to Mr. Lu Junior fully demonstrates Mr. Lu’s expectations for Mr. Lu Junior. If Mr. Lu can do a great job, all the obstacles in the group will naturally be removed one by one. This is laying the foundation for Mr. Lu to join the group. President Lu even sent Assistant Li to assist. “How much did we eat?” Yes, it’s time to get down to business. “Boss Lu, we haven’t made any moves yet. Boss Lu has instructed us to enter the market as a surprise force and defeat the bulls in one fell swoop.” Beat the bulls? In Lu Yiming’s opinion, this might be the funniest joke. It seems that his father was deceived by Wan Guo Securities and Liao Guofa. What is the scariest thing nowadays? It’s just that there is information asymmetry. Even if all the working capital of the Lu Group was gambled, it would be of no avail. But since we haven’t taken action now, there is still a chance. “How much funding do we have?” “One hundred and twenty million.” “not enough.” “this…” not enough? This is 120 million. What did this amount of money mean in 1995? Although this money does not entirely belong to the Lu family. But more than 100 million is absolutely an unimaginable astronomical figure in this day and age. This is also the reason why Liao Guofa and Wanguo Securities want to drag the Lu Group into the water. This time the battle between bulls and bears has been stalemate for a long time. The bulls have the upper hand at the moment. Both Liao Guofa and Wanguo Securities have reached the brink of life and death. Lu Yiming knew that in the eyes of ordinary people, Wanguo Securities and Liaoguofa were both behemoths. Wan Guo Securities was established in July 1988 and is the first joint stock financial institution mainly engaged in the securities industry approved by the central bank in Shanghai. It is also the only joint stock financial institution in Shanghai that focuses on the securities industry. It is not like the flourishing of all kinds of flowers in later generations. In this era, Wan Guo Securities represents absolute authority. To put it bluntly, if Wanguo Securities wants a stock to rise, all it has to do is say something and countless retail investors will flock in and push up the stock price. This is the position of Wan Guo Securities, and no one can shake it. “Has Mr. Guan contacted us?” “I contacted you half an hour ago and have been asking why we haven’t taken any action yet.” This time, the only one who can answer Lu Yiming’s question is Li Li. No one else is qualified. Yes, Mr. Guan, the CEO of Everbright Securities, is the real boss. Like Lu Aijun, they are both legendary big figures. “It seems like he’s really anxious.” Lu Yiming smiled slightly. Others may not know, but Lu Yiming knows very well in his heart that Wanguo Securities is already at the end of its rope. Mr. Guan tried every possible means but still couldn’t compete with the bulls. Otherwise, how could they tempt the Lu Group with huge profits? In Lu Yiming’s words, they are all capital ‘vampires’. Eat the people without leaving any bones. “Should we make a statement?” If I wait any longer, I’m afraid Mr. Guan will misunderstand me. Lu Yiming looked at his watch. It’s 14:35, and there’s still 1 hour and 25 minutes before the market closes. Lu Yiming knew very well that in the last hour, the whole thing would really reach its climax. Wanguo Securities will go completely crazy. “The fun has just begun.” “What’s the meaning?” Lu Yiming was really weird today. Li Li was a little confused. She actually felt like she couldn’t see through Lu Yiming’s depth. How is this possible? Is this still the dandy boy who wears all his thoughts written on his face? What exactly happened? Could it be that Mr. Lu specifically gave Lu Yiming some pointers? No, even if that was the case, with Lu Yiming’s intelligence, he wouldn’t be able to act out this scene well. Lu Aijun sent me here specifically, not just to assist Lu Yiming. At the critical moment, I am the decision maker on behalf of Mr. Lu. But Lu Yiming was right, it was still early. I also want to take a good look at what kind of surprise Lu Yiming will bring me. Time passed very slowly, and for everyone, every minute seemed like torture. Even Li Li’s indifferent expression gradually changed. Only Lu Yiming remained calm. Li Li: What a heartless guy. Chapter 6: Intrigue and Deception “Sister Lili, please contact the bank that we have a good personal relationship with. I need money, the more the better.” “this…” Since the Lu Group’s business is so big, naturally there are many banks willing to cooperate with the Lu Group. However, borrowing money from the bank suddenly will cause unnecessary misunderstandings on the other side. Moreover, in Li Li’s opinion, the current funds of more than 100 million yuan should be enough to cope with the subsequent acquisitions. Before this, Li Li had done some background checks and found that both sides of the battle had already reached the point where they were at their wit’s end. Now is the best time for Lu Group to enter the market. No matter who the Lu family sides with, it will be of decisive significance. “Remember, there is no upper limit.” “I need to report this matter to President Lu.” “Sister Lily, please remember that this time, I am the one in charge.” “I’m sorry, under special circumstances, I have the right to remove your authority. This is Mr. Lu…” “It is so.” I originally thought that Lu Yiming would be furious after hearing the news, and even Li Li had already thought about how to explain it. But I didn’t expect that Lu Yiming seemed to be fine. “Mr. Lu is doing this for your own good.” “I know, but if it were you, in a life and death battle, would you not leave behind a trump card?” “What’s the meaning?” “Sister Lily, I know that with your ability, you must have done a background check beforehand, and the intelligence must be very detailed.” “This is what I should do.” “stupid!” No one expected that Lu Yiming would suddenly attack Li Li. stupid? Li Li’s pupils trembled. She had done everything she should do. Even Mr. Lu didn’t think of it at first. But Lu Yiming was scolded by a playboy, and the arrogant Li Li really couldn’t accept it. “Please watch your words.” As for the others, they were completely dumbfounded. How dare you scold Assistant Li? Hasn’t Mr. Lu suffered enough at the hands of Assistant Li? “Hoo… Assistant Li, please think carefully about what the level of the two sides is this time?” Lu Yiming took a deep breath and then spoke slowly. “big mac.” Li Li quickly calmed down and took a few deep breaths. The tailor made suit, with the chest rising and falling, one can imagine Li Li’s state at that moment. However, Li Li’s professional qualities allowed her to answer Lu Yiming’s questions. Yes, it’s the Big Mac. Even for the Lu Group, China Development Bank and Wan Guo Securities are both giants. Although Liao Guofa is not large in size, it is also a “predecessor” of the Lu Group in the securities industry. There is no doubt about this. “No matter what the outcome of this battle is, one side will be completely defeated.” “Yes, according to my understanding, Wan Guo Securities has staked everything.” If they lose, it will be the end of Wan Guo Securities. Although Li Li did not know the details of China Economic Development Group, she believed that it would not be very good. “It’s a matter of life and death. In this situation, do you think they have no backup plan?” “this…” Yes, the business world is like a battlefield, not to mention that it has reached a life and death situation. In this case, it is impossible to let others know the trump card. Even Li Li couldn’t find out the real truth. “So, what you know now is just what they want you to know.” “Are you really Lu Yiming?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “I’m sorry, that’s not what I meant.” Well, Li Li was really too shocked, so she blurted out this. This is definitely not something a playboy can see through. Could it be that Lu Yiming has been hiding his abilities all along? But why did Lu Yiming do this? Li Li, who has always been smart, really couldn’t figure it out. “Again, I need enough funds to deal with possible changes.” “How much do you need?” “There’s no upper limit.” “Got it, I’ll contact them now.” Li Li nodded, picked up her phone and walked aside. “hiss…” As for the other employees of Lu Group, they all looked at the scene in disbelief. Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu actually has the upper hand? This has never happened before. This is too exaggerated. I just witnessed a miracle. You know, even the top executives of the Lu Group would be cautious in their words and actions when facing Assistant Li. “What are you standing there for? What’s the price now?” “148.21 yuan.” “You’re really patient.” Lu Yiming smiled slightly. It turned out that Mr. Guan, who had just called Li Li in such a hurry, just wanted to put pressure on her. Treat the Lu Group as a pawn. The more than 100 million yuan of the Lu Group is certainly not a small amount. Once it enters the market, it will naturally cause huge waves. However, Lu Yiming knew better. The Lu Group was merely used as a pathfinder by Wan Guo Securities. Once China Everbright uses its back up plan, the Lu family will definitely become a discarded pawn and be hunted by many parties. At that time, Wan Guo Securities will launch a fatal attack after figuring out the bottom card. The Lu Group had already been gnawed to the point where not even a bone was left. That’s a good plan. “Keep an eye on Wan Guo. Also, are there any new moves from Liao Guo?” The Gao brothers, the leaders of Liao Guofa, were among the big speculators in China’s early capital market. Stocks, futures, bonds, and fund repo, they can be found everywhere. This time, the cooperation with Wanguo Securities is aimed at making a splash in the financial market. It’s a pity that the Gao brothers, who have always been successful, chose the wrong target this time. “Boss Lu, I haven’t noticed any movement yet.” After the last delivery yesterday afternoon, Liao Guofa has not made any new moves. “Mr. Lu, could there be a problem with their funding pool?” No one knows why Mr. Lu is paying attention to Liao Guofa. Although the name is impressive, compared with the other two giants, Liaoguofa is really not up to standard. A company that does not have the qualifications to conduct financial business. The operating income was only 40 million yuan and the profit was only 4.26 million yuan. Why would such a company attract the attention of Mr. Lu? “Just a troublemaker.” Lu Yiming smiled and said, yes, the Liao Kingdom went from being the main force at the beginning to a troublemaker. Of course, this was also the Liao Kingdom’s helplessness. After all, it is too small and is no match for the two giants. However, Lu Yiming knew that Liao Guofa had become the death knell for Wan Guo Securities. The original ally betrayed Mr. Guan at the most critical moment for his own life and death. Tsk tsk… You really don’t know how to judge people. “4 banks, 200 million funds, arrived within 10 minutes.” Li Li is worthy of her name. She got 200 million yuan in funds with just a few phone calls. In this era, this is simply unimaginable. “cost?” “Seven percent, half a year.” “That’s reasonable.” Lu Yiming nodded. For the bank, raising so much money in such a short period of time already showed that they attached great importance to the Lu Group. “Mr. Lu, please tell me your plan.” Li Li was very serious at this time. Mr. Lu? This is the first time I heard this name from Li Li. It seems that Li Li has approved of Lu Yiming’s performance just now. It’s Assistant Li’s style to be objective and not personal. “Is it important?” “Of course, I am responsible for the Lu Group.” Li Li’s expression was extremely serious. This was the case in the previous life, but unfortunately, the two of them couldn’t be together until the end. “Everyone get out.” Chapter 7: The Gambling Manager “Mr. Lu, these people are the elites of the Lu Group.” Elites should naturally be treated as elites. Being kicked out now will probably leave a knot in their hearts. This may not be a good thing for Mr. Lu. Li Li must be reminded. Moreover, for Li Li, being alone with Lu Yiming would make her very uncomfortable. After all, Lu Yiming’s reputation is quite… “The Dharma is not to be passed on to the ears of others.” “Mr. Lu?” Seeing Lu Yiming was so persistent, Li Li had no choice but to wave her hand. At this time, Lu Yiming and Li Li were the only ones left in the huge VIP room. “Our mission this time is to go long.” “Go long!?” At this moment, Li Li could no longer sit still. “Mr. Lu, you should understand what Mr. Lu means. We have reached a strategic cooperation with Mr. Guan of Wan Guo Securities. We…” “Buried with him?” Lu Yiming smiled coldly. Cooperation? What is cooperation? Knowing that there is a fire pit in front of you, you still want to jump in? “Mr. Lu, Wan Guo Securities still has a great chance of winning.” “Depend on what? Rely on those fence sitters? Let me make a bet with you. In 10 minutes at most, the Gao brothers from Liaoguofa will turn against us.” Compared to Li Li’s shock, Lu Yiming was sitting on the Diaoyutai. “That’s impossible. Liao Guofa invested all the funds in the early stage.” “A brave man cuts off his own arm. I have to admit that the Gao brothers are quite courageous.” Although this means that no one will dare to cooperate with the Gao brothers in the future, it is still better than nothing. “Mr. Lu, you should know the philosophy of the Lu Group. We are where we are today because we are based on integrity.” “Integrity? Your so called integrity will not only destroy the Lu Group, but will also lead to the despair of countless people and the breakup of countless families. Is this the integrity you want to see?” “this…” Li Li completely lost her voice, yes, although Li Li didn’t believe that she would pay such a high price. But, if what Lu Yiming said was true, then all of this… “Li Li, I know you are capable, so you must have figured out this key point. Now, you have 8 minutes to think about it. Either cooperate with me fully, or leave here and don’t tell me that you came to assist me with my father’s order. The surname of the Lu family is Lu.” It was so quiet in the VIP room at this moment that you could hear a pin drop. There was only the sound of Li Li’s breathing. Li Li never thought that she would be forced to make a choice by Lu Yiming. “Three more minutes.” For five minutes, neither of them spoke. Time passes by every second. Li Li doesn’t have much time left to think. “I understand. I hope Mr. Lu is really considering the group.” “Of course, without Lu’s, I can’t continue to be a playboy.” Lu Yiming shrugged his shoulders and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Yiming knew very well that he had to convince Li Li before he could take action this time. If the two really disagree, these so called elites will eventually stand on Li Li’s side. Even though they called her affectionately just now, in their hearts, Lu Yiming’s position was far less important than Li Li’s. Heir? Sorry, I’ll tell you after I inherit it. Li Li’s current position in the company is real. “Everyone come in.” After dealing with Li Li, Lu Yiming called everyone at the door in. “From this moment on, Mr. Lu will be fully responsible for all actions. You, including me, must obey Mr. Lu’s instructions unconditionally.” Li Li announced to everyone a decision that shocked everyone. Although I don’t know whether my decision is right or wrong. But at least at this moment, Li Li saw the shadow of President Lu in Lu Yiming. No, Mr. Lu’s aura is even far greater than that of Mr. Lu. At this time, at the headquarters of Wan Guo Securities. “Boss Guan, the price has reached 148.5 yuan. If it continues like this, we…” The top executives of Everbright Securities gathered together. For Wan Guo, there are only two outcomes today. Otherwise, after today, there will be no more World Nations. Or, be reborn from the ashes and completely dominate the market. In this battle, all nations have staked everything. The one leading them all is the creator of the myth of all nations, Mr. Guan. Although it has reached the most critical moment, everyone still believes that as long as General Guan is there, Wan Guo will not lose. This is the belief that Mr. Guan brings. “Have you contacted the Gao brothers?” “It has been turned off all the time. We have sent someone to look for it.” “Looking for it? Haha, I can’t find it today, you short sighted fellow.” Mr. Guan smiled coldly. Liao Guofa is really a fence sitter. It is profitable in the early stage, so he wants to join the market just to curry favor with himself. Now at the most critical moment, we have lost contact? I’m afraid you’ve made up your mind. “Boss Guan, if the Gao brothers turn against us, it will be a big blow to us.” Once confirmed, the bullish forces will definitely take action. By then, the chips in my hand might not be enough to turn defeat into victory. “What is the current deficit?” “1.8 billion.” 1.8 billion, this number weighs on everyone’s mind. If this price is maintained, Wan Guo Securities, plus its previous losses, will probably never have a chance to recover. “Have you contacted Lu Aijun?” “I have contacted him, and Mr. Lu did give a guarantee. However, Mr. Lu handed this matter over to Mr. Lu Jr. to handle.” “Humph, old fox.” Mr. Guan knew in his heart that this was a case of not releasing the eagle until the rabbit was seen. “Boss Guan, although the Lu Group is very strong, it can only have about 100 million at most if it is put together temporarily, and it cannot control the overall situation. Are we overestimating the Lu Group?” “What do you know? Lu is a private giant after all. Once Lu is gone, those retail investors should think carefully. It doesn’t matter if there is a lack of funds. I want to take advantage of the power of Lu Group.” In order to drag the Lu family into the water, Mr. Guan gave a lot of guarantees. Everyone says Mr. Lu is just a playboy, but why is he still so calm now? Could it be that Lu Aijun has been directing everything from behind the scenes? “Call Mr. Lu again and make sure to take action.” In 50 minutes, everything will be settled. Even Mr. Guan, who was overly praised by the gods, couldn’t help but sweat in his palms at this moment. But even so, Mr. Guan still had to pretend to be calm and composed. But after giving all the instructions. The secretary suddenly opened the office door in panic. “Boss Guan, something happened.” “explain.” “Boss…” “It doesn’t matter what the occasion is.” Mr. Guan naturally understood what the secretary meant, but at this point in time, he could no longer care about anyone else. What is coming will come, and Mr. Guan has already made plans for the worst. “It was sent by Liao.” “They pulled their investment?” “They went long.” “Pah…” An exquisite ashtray was completely smashed into pieces. Well, well done to the Gao brothers, stabbing themselves in the back at this time. Sure enough, there is no integrity when it comes to interests. Want to make up for previous losses? Humph, it also depends on whether you give yourself this opportunity. “Use the reserve fund.” “Boss Guan?” This reserve fund is the shareholders’ money. Misappropriating the reserve fund is a crime. “If anything goes wrong, I’ll take the blame.” At this time, Mr. Guan was a gambler who had gone crazy. Chapter 8 Disruption “Boss Lu, Liao Guofa has started to take action!” Within 10 minutes, Liao Guofa really began to act, just like he did in his previous life. “How did you guess that?” Is there anything missing? Li Li found it hard to believe all this. Lu Yiming was so smart and the surprise he gave her today was really too big. Every move of the opponent was under Lu Yiming’s calculation. “Do we still need to guess? As I said before, the Gao brothers don’t have much time left.” Liao Guofa tried his best to buy more, but the price began to fall steadily. decline?! Yes, it’s going down. The Liao Kingdom launched a campaign to capture 20,000 people. But I didn’t expect that not only did it not cause any waves, but the price actually fell? “Isn’t this reasonable?” Li Li also moved in front of the computer monitor at this moment. 20,000 lots, that’s nearly 30 million in funds to buy long, but not only did it fail to stabilize the situation, but it was instead smashed? It was clearly rising steadily before. “Check to see if there are any large short orders being sold?” “No need to check.” “Mr. Lu?” “If I were Wanguo Securities, I would definitely use all my accounts to attack together. Large amounts of money can only drive down the price, but it will also give the market time to react. Seeing that Wanguo Securities has run out of tricks, Mr. Guan is not a fool and will not do this.” “Assistant Li, what Mr. Lu said is correct. There are indeed a lot of sell orders, but they are very scattered, giving people the impression that they are market behavior of retail investors.” “Are they trying to incentivize retail investors to join the sell off?” Li Li reacted immediately and realized that such a method must have been carefully prepared for a long time. No wonder Lu Yiming just said confidently that Wan Guo Securities still had a backup plan. It seemed that his background check was indeed not successful. “It’s a desperate bet. Even if he escapes this disaster, Mr. Guan will have no future.” “Mr. Lu, what do you mean?” “You have done a background check. Is there still so much money in Wan Guo’s account?” “No.” Li Li knew very well that Wan Guo had now become an empty shell, and the funds on hand could not support such a large scale short selling. unless… “hiss…” “You thought of it?” “He’s crazy.” The world simply cannot afford the consequences of doing so. “It’s a fight to the death. I’m afraid there will be no winner in this fight.” “Mr. Lu, let’s report the situation to Mr. Lu and let him make the decision.” The development of things has exceeded the original expectations. If we enter the market now, the outcome is unpredictable. Mr. Guan has gone crazy. Everything that happened today is destined to go down in history. “Watching retail investors’ families go bankrupt?” In the struggle between Wan Guo and China Everbright Bank, retail investors also suffered. For them, this could be a lifetime savings. “It’s their own greed.” “So he deserves to die?” “this…” Li Li couldn’t believe that Lu Yiming would say such a thing. Since when did Lu Yiming care about these things? However, Li Li knew that she had been persuaded by Lu Yiming. Yes, for thousands and thousands of families, is there anything wrong with their choice of financial management? Why did Wan Guo and CETC involve these innocent people in their fight? “Boss Lu, please give the order. What should we do?” “Take over, take as many as you can.” “good.” “Assistant Li?” “I didn’t hear what Mr. Lu said, take it.” “But the order we received was to cooperate with Wan Guo to short sell.” This was decided by President Lu at the beginning, and if we buy more now, wouldn’t that be using the group’s cash to protect the market? What benefits does this bring to the group? “Listen to Mr. Lu.” If it were just Lu Yiming, he might not be able to control the elites of the Lu Group, but once Li Li endorsed him, everything would be different. Dozens of people all took action. With a large amount of cash invested, the suppressed prices rose instantly. “149.9 yuan.” “150 yuan.” And at this moment, China Economic Development Zone. “Someone took action, and it wasn’t done by retail investors.” Senior executives of China Economic Development Group also gathered together. This small scale trust company has had a strong “government background” from the very beginning. It started out by accepting the entrusted management of the Ministry of Finance’s agricultural working capital funds, and later accepted the entrusted management of all fiscal working capital funds and funds from the Agricultural Comprehensive Office. He is also the leader of the bulls. His aggressive and fierce style is well known in the industry. However, China Development Bank is not as wealthy as Wan Guo, and can only stabilize the market by continuously releasing positive news. Retail investors are the main force of China Everbright Bank. In preparation for today’s decisive battle, China Economic Development Group Corporation specially applied for a large sum of funds in case of emergency. However, he did not expect that before he could take any action, someone would step in to protect the city. “Cha, who is it?” Even if they are allies, with so much capital entering the market, China Everbright must know the other party’s background. “I found out. It’s the Second Exchange.” “The Second Exchange?” “Yes, the seats are all from the Second Exchange, and they are all opened in a short period of time.” “Who’s behind this?” “Lu Group.” “Is it him?!” At this moment, the top management of China Economic Development Group was also shocked. How is this possible? Wasn’t it the previous news that Wan Guo and Lu had reached a comprehensive cooperation? The large amount of funds that he applied for was prepared to prevent Lu’s attack. But now it seems that things are moving in the completely opposite direction. “Should we take action?” “Humph, let’s kill him while he’s ill.” Early this morning, significant good news was released. The treasury bonds will be redeemed at 148.50 yuan. The release of this news stimulated prices to continue to rise. Just now, Wan Guo lowered the price to around 148 yuan, but unexpectedly, the fate of the Lu Group caused the price to soar again. At this time, with the mentality of kicking the drowning dog, a large amount of funds from China Everbright also came out. “Mr. Lu, the price has reached 150.5.” “151 yuan.” this… Two full dollars, and still rising. If it closes at this price. The Lu Group will undoubtedly make a fortune. At this moment, Li Li couldn’t help but look up to Lu Yiming beside her. He is not surprised by fame or disgrace, and can remain calm in the face of huge success. Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, I am finding it increasingly difficult to understand you. “Pah…” Mr. Guan smashed his favorite blue and white porcelain teacup. “Damn the Lu family, they go back on their word!” With the Lu family’s original fate and himself putting everything on the line, even if China Everbright had a backup plan, it would not be able to prevent the market chaos. Once retail investors cause panic, they will immediately sell their chips, so the price will naturally be completely driven down. But now, the successive betrayals of Liao Guofa and Lu Group have directly stabbed Guan Zong and Wan Guo twice. There is only one final ending. Lost, lost completely. “go out.” “Boss Guan.” “Everyone get out.” Senior executives left the office one after another. Mr. Guan sat in the chair in a daze. The empire will fall. No, no, I must not give up. There is still a chance, there must be a chance! Chapter 9 The last 8 minutes of climax “Boss Lu, we made a lot of money.” It has increased by 2 yuan. Government bonds are not like stocks. A 2 yuan increase has doubled the profit. Even for the Lu Group, this is an unimaginable huge profit. All of this was planned and won by General Lu from thousands of miles away. At this moment, there were too many unclear and inexplicable meanings in Li Li’s eyes when she looked at Lu Yiming. How did he do it? Every step was just right, and he actually had everyone in the palm of his hand. “How much deposit is left?” “A little over 100 million.” “not enough.” “No, Mr. Lu, Wan Guo has no power to fight back. We will definitely win this battle.” “Yes, Mr. Lu, Wan Guo has used all its backup plans. It is initially estimated that Wan Guo’s loss this time is more than 4 billion. This is simply not something Wan Guo can afford.” No one understood what Lu Yiming said at all. Wan Guo Securities is now a lamb to be slaughtered, how can a miracle happen? “Mr. Lu?” Even Li Li didn’t believe that under such circumstances, Wan Guo would still have a chance to resist. “This is just the beginning.” Only Lu Yiming, only Lu Yiming knew that the real climax had just begun. “How long until closing time?” “Ten minutes.” “Soon.” In the previous life, the last 8 minutes became Wan Guo’s swan song and also caused countless retail investors to fall from heaven to hell. Within an hour of closing, countless people stood on the rooftop. What Lu Yiming wants to prevent is tragedy from happening. In order to avoid huge losses caused by misjudging the general trend, Wanguo Securities took advantage of loopholes in the rules and dumped the market on a large scale. This is also the last madness of the nations. This time, the madness also led to the collective liquidation of long positions. Wan Guo overturned the entire Treasury bond futures market table. “No matter what the reason is, no matter how big the short order is, we will take it.” “this…” “Mr. Lu, we can handle up to 300,000 more.” The Lu Group does have a huge amount of funds in its hands, but this money has turned into national debt. This amount of time cannot be converted into cash at all. The remaining margin cannot support the purchase of short orders. “Someone is going to flip the table.” Lu Yiming’s eyes never left the display screen. The moment that will truly influence the course of history is about to unfold before us. Lu Yiming was actually looking forward to it. Lu Yiming: Mr. Guan, I won’t let you get your wish this time. Even if it is a false victory, I will not leave it for you. Margin control and position limit are the two main mechanisms in treasury bond futures trading rules. According to the rules, the margin is only “marked to market on a daily basis”, so it is impossible to control in real time whether the margin for each transaction is sufficient. In order to circumvent the restrictions of the exchange, the market, whether long or short, borrows seats everywhere to open positions. These have already been foreshadowed. The general manager of Wanguo was just gambling that the exchange would not dare to risk the world’s condemnation and cancel those transactions. “Boss Lu, something…something happened.” With just 8 minutes left before the trading deadline, a short order of 900,000 contracts suddenly appeared, shocking everyone. 900,000? What is the concept? “Impossible, Wan Guo doesn’t have that much money.” “How do they do that?” In an instant, everyone gathered around. Today was supposed to be a carnival for bulls, but at the last moment before closing, there was a shocking reversal. Everyone was dumbfounded. Whether it is retail investors or China Everbright Bank. Everyone stared at the numbers jumping wildly on the big screen in disbelief. The price was instantly suppressed by 5 cents. This is not just a shrinkage of wealth, but also a terrible signal. “I’ll take it all.” “This… Mr. Lu, our deposit is insufficient.” “The exchange cannot control the margin of each transaction in real time. No matter how much it is, we will take it.” “Mr. Lu, this is against the rules.” It’s not just a violation of regulations, it may even be illegal. Although this exploits a loophole in the rules, anyone who dares to do so will face serious consequences. “Wan Guo has no margin, they just want to crash the market.” “Mr. Lu, if this is really the case, we can just ignore it.” Li Li quickly understood what Lu Yiming meant. I also guessed the trick. If there are indeed any illegal operations, the exchange will definitely give a clear answer in the end. Otherwise, the market will collapse completely. “I understand this principle, and you understand it too, but do the retail investors understand it?” “Mr. Lu?” “How many people do you think have the courage to face sudden bankruptcy?” “this…” Li Li couldn’t answer Lu Yiming’s question. The market is inherently dangerous, and one must be cautious when entering the market. This principle has been instilled in every investor from the very beginning. But having said that, how many investors can hold on when faced with a sudden margin call? I’m afraid it’s just as Mr. Lu said. Once the price is broken, countless investors will… The consequence was so terrible that Li Li couldn’t imagine it. “Since they are all exploiting loopholes, we should at least give retail investors justice.” Although doing so, the consequences are unknown. But at this moment, Lu Yiming will become a barrier in front of retail investors. “I understand. I am fully responsible for today’s transaction.” Lu Yiming is the young master of the Lu Group and the future helmsman. Nothing can happen to Lu Yiming. At this moment, Li Li had made up her mind that no matter what the outcome was, she would not let Lu Yiming bear the consequences. “Now is not the time to talk about this. Buy. No matter how many sell orders there are, we will take them.” “clear.” “knew.” At this moment, everyone had a solemn expression on their face. The seat of the Lu Group is in full swing. In an instant, 900,000 short positions were taken in. “Mr. Lu, there are two more short orders of 900,000 lots.” “Keep buying, keep the current price stable, no matter how much, we will buy it all.” War, real war of the century. Everyone was dumbfounded. Watching the game between bulls and bears was far beyond my understanding. “Crazy, all crazy.” The top executives of China Economic Development Group had cold sweat on their foreheads at this moment. No one expected that things would develop to this point. The news was reported immediately within the exchange. However, at this time, the exchange can only watch the abnormal game between the two parties and can do nothing about it. Be wary of gentlemen, not villains. The world is desperate. The seat of Lu Group is fully protected. But in the final analysis, both companies violated the regulations. “Call me, call me!” Stop, this kind of nonsense must be stopped. However, the call to Wanguo could not be reached at all. The nations that are risking everything have already abandoned everything. This is a war, a war of life and death. On the bullish side, Lu Group took over China Economic Development Group. It has become the last barrier to protect the bulls. This would later be called the darkest day in securities history. At this moment, a dramatic scene occurred. Chapter 10 The Dust Settles 16:30. Everything is settled. No matter who it is, no one could have imagined that 20.7 million short orders would appear in the last 8 minutes. This is a game worth more than 400 billion yuan. The value of the short position itself is several times greater than the treasury bond portion. Such an absurd situation actually happened. What’s more crucial is that the 20.7 million short orders still failed to bring down the price. In the last 8 minutes, all the seats of the Lu Group were taken. To be honest, no one could have anticipated Wan Guo’s madness. Only the Lu Group seemed to have known what was going on and had made adequate preparations. Heart wrenching. This battle, regardless of victory or defeat, will be remembered by everyone. “Pah…” Inside Wanguo Securities, Mr. Guan smashed the computer in front of him into pieces. Lu’s! It’s Lu’s again! It was Lu, the family he had invited to cheer him up, who suddenly became his ultimate enemy. It’s over, completely over, Wan Guo is finished, due to unfair transactions and huge losses of nearly 5 billion. The nations were powerless to save the situation. Mr. Guan’s lips turned pale and kept shaking. The securities empire collapsed in one day. I saw him build a tall building, I saw him entertain guests, and I saw his building collapse. Mr. Guan’s cell phone kept ringing. But Mr. Guan turned a blind eye. At this time, Lu Yiming stood up and stretched. “Assistant Li.” “exist.” “I’m sorry to trouble you. Just go to the exchange.” Lu Yiming knew very well that even if he didn’t go, the exchange would call him. There is no movement now, it’s just that they haven’t reacted yet. The main culprit is Wan Guo, followed by the Lu Group. The ending is inevitable. But at least the result was good. The price stabilized at 150.6 yuan. The bulls are still profitable, and the vast majority of retail investors have kept their gains. At least the tragedy of the previous life will not happen again. Being able to do this is enough. “Don’t worry, Mr. Lu. I am fully responsible for today’s transaction.” Li Li lowered her head, willing to take responsibility for it all. It was an illegal operation, although it was a forced counterattack. But a violation is a violation, and there is no excuse for it. Li Li was willing to take responsibility from the beginning. At least, Li Li knew in her heart that Lu Yiming was not doing this for himself, but for more innocent retail investors. Besides, the reason why he was paid a high salary by the Lu Group was just for the critical moment… Thinking of this, Li Li took a few deep breaths. At least, my sacrifice is not meaningless. “Responsible?” “Yes, Mr. Lu, please rest assured. All the decisions today were made based on my instructions and have nothing to do with Mr. Lu.” “I think too much.” “Mr. Lu?” Li Li, who had already prepared to be sacrificed, looked up in surprise. What does Mr. Lu mean by this? “It’s not your turn to take responsibility for the Lu Group yet.” “But Mr. Lu…” Now is not the time to act on impulse. Mr. Lu must not be involved in this matter. Moreover, the fewer senior executives are involved, the more important it is for the Lu Group. As the largest private group, Lu Group has countless eyes watching from behind. Ordinary little things may be easily smoothed over by the big guys behind the scenes. But the impact of this incident is really too great. The big boss behind the Lu family could not show up, let alone be involved. The best solution is to take the blame yourself, and everything is the result of your own reckless behavior. Only in this way can we… “Li Li, remember my words. The Lu family is not yet at the point where you, a woman, will be the one to take the blame.” Lu Yiming saw Li Li’s loyalty to the Lu Group. Whether in the past life or this life. This will never change. But this matter is too big, and Li Li, who is rootless and floating, cannot bear it at all. “You go to the exchange first. No matter what the final punishment is, we will bear it all. Don’t bargain. We are not victims. Remember one thing, Lu is willing to bear all responsibilities.” “Mr. Lu, what if…” “Don’t worry, there will be no emergency. Under the circumstances, the exchange will make the right choice between the lesser of two options.” Lu Yiming patted Li Li on the shoulder. This is a man’s responsibility. To some extent, the exchange should thank Lu. When no one could react, it was Lu who stepped forward, even though these words could not be said openly. “I understand, Mr. Lu.” Li Li looked into Lu Yiming’s eyes, and at that moment, she even had the illusion of being lost in them. When did the dude in my eyes grow up to this point? [Sin value: 1110000] The sin value dropped rapidly. At this moment, Lu Yiming saved many families that were about to break up. [Ding: Showing off your talents (completed)] [Autonomous task completed (grading in progress)] [Rating: 89 points (perfect)] 【System rewards are being distributed】 Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I didn’t expect that there would be system rewards? However, I haven’t received any tasks, so why are there system tasks and rewards? What is going on with this system in my body? [As an open system, there are no rigid task regulations, all tasks are waiting for the host to discover independently] this… I have heard of open games, but this is the first time I have heard of the term open system. It really broadens my horizons. Wait, I seem to have forgotten something? What is it exactly? Su Rongrong! Damn, how could I have forgotten about this person? Originally, Lu Yiming wanted to let Su Rongrong calm down before explaining things himself. Lu Yiming was certain that someone was taking advantage of Su Rongrong’s incident to frame him. And Lu Yiming has found a breakthrough. But the thing is, the two of them did meet each other honestly, and I was almost there… Lu Yiming is not a worm in Su Rongrong’s stomach, so naturally he doesn’t know what Su Rongrong is thinking. However, as the only daughter of the Su family, the upbringing Su Rongrong received since childhood was beyond Lu Yiming’s comprehension. This matter must be resolved. “Mr. Lu, what are you doing?” “It’s urgent. You can solve it first and report the progress at any time.” “clear.” Lu Yiming drove the Ferrari back to the hotel at lightning speed. “What? The person is gone?” “Yes, Mr. Lu, we can’t stop you.” “What did you look like when you left?” “this…” “Tell me the truth.” “It doesn’t look good, Mr. Lu. If there’s anything our hotel can help with, just let me know.” He left without saying goodbye, without any crying, making a fuss, or threatening to hang himself. Yes, the other party is Su Rongrong, the apple of the Su family’s eye. Although he hid his identity during college. But who is Su Rongrong? The calmer the sea is, the more it is a prelude to an impending storm. Go talk to Su Rongrong and explain it clearly? The key point is that as the person involved, I don’t even believe my own lies, so how can I make Su Rongrong believe me? Could it be that all this is ultimately unavoidable? Chapter 11 Car Accident [Reward: One Dionysus Experience Card. ] Lu Yiming had just started the engine when the sudden system reward startled him. What on earth is this Dionysus Experience Card? drink wine? A disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. I just want to ask, what use is this Dionysus Experience Card to me? In the Magic City, who else can force Mr. Lu to drink? Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Speechless. Never mind. I don’t need anything anyway, so it might be nice to keep it as a souvenir. At least it proves that I was once passionate. Lu Yiming’s mentality was a bit bad. Although he had just survived a crisis, Lu Yiming felt a headache when he thought about the possible revenge from Su Rongrong and the Su family. In the previous life, the Su family’s revenge was extremely fierce. Lu Aijun had to give up the Lu Group in order to save Lu Yiming. But for Su Rongrong, this result was not what she wanted. After all, what Su Rongrong lost was her chastity, which is the most important thing for a girl. In her previous life, Su Rongrong never married and became Lu Yiming’s biggest enemy in his career. Thinking of this, Lu Yiming felt even more depressed. I don’t want to try Su Rongrong’s method again. Just then, a shrill horn sounded. Lu Yiming subconsciously stepped on the brakes. A van in the opposite lane made an emergency avoidance move and veered toward the sidewalk. Lu Yiming was distracted while driving, and the van in the opposite lane was driving too fast and turned without giving way to the straight moving vehicle. Just when he was about to hit her, he finally reacted. The van driver was about to hit the valuable supercar. Although I don’t know how much this car is worth, one thing is clear: I definitely can’t afford it. In this situation, you can only make an emergency avoidance move and turn the steering wheel sharply. Due to the excessive speed, the front of the car tilted and headed towards the sidewalk. It is impossible to brake at this time. A van without ABS may roll over at any time. All this happened in an instant. “bump…” By the time Lu Yiming reacted, the van had already crashed into a roadside tree. At this moment, there was a person lying in front of the van, who should be a pedestrian who was affected. This scene also evoked Lu Yiming’s memory. In the previous life, I also caused a car accident at the same time and place. It’s just that in my previous life, I was too excited after playing with Su Rongrong. Coupled with the excessive physical exertion, his hands and feet became weak, which led to the accident. But at that time, I didn’t take it seriously. Anyway, I was going straight and was not the one at fault. Plus, I was in a very bad mood at the time, and I was the scapegoat, so naturally I was not in the mood to meddle in other people’s business. He then drove away in the Ferrari. Later, when the traffic police came to verify the situation, they heard that the passerby who was hit by the van died because the best time for treatment was missed when he was sent to the hospital. But Lu Yiming was in a difficult situation at the time, and it was not his fault in the first place, so he was exempted from punishment. Reborn, what choice should I make this time? Lu Yiming thought for only a second before stepping on the brakes, unbuckled his seat belt, and opened the car door. The driver of the van has also gotten out of the car at this moment. It seems that he is not seriously injured, but the expression on his face is a little dull. He must have been frightened by the sudden disaster. “What are you standing there for? Call the police!” “Call…call the police, yes, call the police, telephone booth, telephone booth?” The van driver looked around, trying to find a phone booth to call the police. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… At this time, Lu Yiming was already squatting beside the fallen passerby. He is about 60 years old and his hair is already a little gray. His eyes were tightly closed, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. Lu Yiming has not received any professional medical treatment. If I didn’t know the outcome, I might just wait for the police to handle it. But now we know that the old man in front of us will eventually lose his life because of the failure to send him to the hospital in time. Lu Yiming naturally couldn’t just wait there foolishly. “No, what are you doing?” “Help me open the car door and wait for someone to die!” “Dead? Dead people?!” When the van driver heard that the other party might be in danger of life, he immediately became anxious. At the moment, he could only follow Lu Yiming’s instructions and open the door of the Ferrari. “Tell the truth when the police come.” “I…I…” Without waiting for the other party to answer, Lu Yiming started the Ferrari and sped towards the nearest hospital. Is it worth it? Originally, Lu Yiming did not have much responsibility for the car accident. At most, the road conditions were not discovered in time. Moreover, according to traffic regulations, the van should give way to the driver. Even if the old man died, for Lu Yiming, the most he would feel is the condemnation of his conscience. But the situation is different now. If the old man died in his car… In order to shirk responsibility, they watched the other person die due to delayed medical treatment. Lu Yiming really couldn’t do it. The Ferrari is speeding at lightning speed, and there is no need to honk the horn. The roar of the engine is enough to attract attention. Huashan Hospital in Shanghai. Lu Yiming drove the Ferrari directly to the door of the emergency center. “Doctor, help!” It is worthy of being one of the best tertiary hospitals in Shanghai. After a brief period of chaos, professional treatment was provided. The old man has been sent to the emergency room. All the expenses were paid in advance by Lu Yiming. Half an hour later, the traffic police came to the door. “Sir, the driver has explained exactly what happened.” The van driver did not distort the facts. The most important thing now is the condition of the injured. At this moment, the Magic City Exchange. “Bang!” President Han slammed his desk. “What do you want to do? How dare you do this? Fine, fine! Do you still have any rules in your eyes?” At this moment, President Han wanted to slap President Guan in the face. Overturning the table, this is the rhythm of completely breaking up. “And you guys, what are you doing at Lu Group? Why are you accepting orders?” “Boss Han, it was Wan Guo who broke the rules. We just want to protect them. If Wan Guo succeeds, it will be a disaster for retail investors.” Li Li faced President Han’s anger head on and had already thought of a countermeasure. Yes, the Lu Group did violate regulations, but it had no choice but to do so, and it was for the basic interests of the majority of retail investors. “you…” President Han was completely speechless. The man named Guan disobeyed orders and overturned the table, which was tantamount to cutting off his own retreat. No punishment is too severe. But the Lu Group was different. Just as Li Li had just said, they were forced to fight. “In that case, should I thank you?” “No need. We at Lu’s Group will not evade the punishment that should be imposed.” “go out.” Mr. Han looked tired. I have already expressed my views, and this matter is beyond my authority. This time, I am afraid that not only Wan Guo Securities, but even myself will be affected. He sighed helplessly. Barbarism, an immature and barbaric market, ultimately caused all this. And today, President Han also learned a good lesson. Watched Li Li leave the office. “You go too. Everything will be based on the results of the investigation.” President Han waved his hand. One thing is certain, the nations are finished, completely finished. Chapter 12 Misunderstanding “Mr. Lu, this is the specific situation.” Li Li called Lu Yiming immediately after going out. “Understood.” “Mr. Lu, do you have any other instructions?” “Just report this matter directly. I estimate that in a few hours, the final handling results will be announced.” “Mr. Lu, are you sure you want to do this?” Before the final result comes out, I’m afraid Mr. Lu will be furious. “It doesn’t matter. Besides, this is your responsibility. Just remember, if anything happens, just push it onto me.” After these words were spoken, Li Li on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment. Are you protecting yourself again? Why do this? Logically speaking, the two should be in a competitive relationship. Although Lu Yiming is the future head of Lu Group. However, Lu Yiming is still young and inexperienced now, and coupled with the usual tit for tat between the two of them, it seems that it is the best option for Lu Yiming to use this opportunity to get rid of him. At this moment, Li Li really couldn’t understand Lu Yiming. “Mr. Lu, I am willing to cooperate with you today because of the interests of the company.” “I know.” “you…” You know, you clearly know your attitude, but you are still willing to protect yourself? What exactly does Lu Yiming want to do? “I have something else to do here, so that’s it for now.” Lu Yiming hung up the phone, and at this time, the lights in the emergency room were still on. The traffic police have contacted the family and they are on the way. The specific cause of the accident has been determined. The van driver bears full responsibility. In other words, Lu Yiming is a completely good person. However, when Lu Yiming saw the family members rushing over, he was completely dumbfounded. this… Enemies always meet again. I just want to ask Su Rongrong, who looks so anxious, what’s going on? That’s right, the family member who rushed to the hospital was Su Rongrong. At this moment, Su Rongrong no longer had the composure she once had. The anxious look did not conceal the inner panic. “you…” “Pah…” Just as Lu Yiming was about to speak, he was slapped by Su Rongrong. “How do you hit someone?” The traffic policeman on the side was also confused? “Lu Yiming, come at me if you have the guts!” Su Rongrong went completely crazy. The nightmare from this afternoon has not yet dissipated. Su Rongrong, who was already in a daze, received a call from the traffic police saying that her grandfather had been hit by a car. You know, Su Rongrong and her grandfather have a particularly good relationship. In aristocratic families, family affection is inherently weak, and grandpa is the best person to Su Rongrong. This is also the reason why Su Rongrong came to Shanghai to attend university. Now that grandpa is in trouble, how can Su Rongrong not be anxious. But I never expected that it was Lu Yiming again. It’s him! It’s this bastard. He actually attacked the person most important to him. The moment she saw Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong completely misunderstood. Su Rongrong thought that this playboy actually threatened her in this way. It’s simply insane. “Lu Yiming, let me tell you, if anything happens to my grandfather, I will never let you go.” There was nothing but hatred in the look he gave Lu Yiming. “what ever.” In public, Young Master Lu received a hard slap in the face. If it had happened in the past, Lu Yiming would have exploded long ago. But Lu Yiming, who had done something wrong, had to endure it. Coincidentally, at this moment, the lights in the emergency room dimmed. “Doctor, is my grandpa okay?” Su Rongrong left Lu Yiming and went to the doctor. “Who are the dependents?” “I am. I am the patient’s granddaughter.” “The patient had a broken rib, but the most troublesome thing was the sudden heart attack. Fortunately, he was sent to the hospital in time and was saved.” Su Rongrong finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that her grandfather was fine. If anything happens to grandpa, I will… definitely… definitely… “Miss, please cooperate with us to make a decision.” The scene was a bit chaotic, but the traffic police also needed to explain the case. At this time, the Lu Group was brightly lit. In the chairman’s office, Lu Aijun sat in the boss chair with a gloomy face. The person standing in front of me was Li Li. “Boss Lu, this is the specific situation.” As soon as she returned to the company, Li Li reported the whole incident to Lu Aijun. “Nonsense, it’s just nonsense.” Lu Aijun was furious and changed his mind without authorization. No wonder there were dozens of missed calls from Mr. Guan on my phone. “Boss Lu, I am also responsible for this matter, but Boss Lu did nothing wrong this time.” “you…” Mr. Lu never thought that Li Li would plead for Lu Yiming. “Boss Lu, if we carry out the plan as planned, we will not only consume all our working capital, but also be buried with Wan Guo.” “Um?” Lu Aijun didn’t expect the consequences to be so serious. “Boss Lu, this is my negligence. The investigation was not comprehensive and the most critical information was omitted. This is a war of unequal information and we are doomed to fail.” The government has set the tone for national debt. In this battle, the short sellers will surely be wiped out. It can be said that if it weren’t for Lu Yiming, I’m afraid… “This brat is really like a blind cat catching a dead mouse.” Lu Aijun knew very well that his son was a virtuous man. If you don’t get into trouble for a day, you are already giving yourself face. This time it must have been an accident. Yes, maybe he just wanted to contradict Li Li, so… “Boss Lu, you really misunderstood Little Boss Lu this time. Little Boss Lu’s performance today was shocking.” Hearing Li Li praising Lu Yiming so much, Lu Aijun’s expression eased a lot. After all, even if a son is not very ambitious, he is still his own child. It is said that a good father will have a good son, so Lu Aijun naturally wants his son to be successful. Unfortunately, over the years, Lu Yiming has brought him nothing but disappointment. After it became a habit, Lu Aijun had no choice but to accept the reality. You can’t prop up a wall with rotten mud. But this time, Lu Yiming actually brought him a surprise. “This brat only knows how to mess around. Why did he end up getting angry with Wan Guo? Wan Guo had already violated the rules. Even if they didn’t take action, Wan Guo wouldn’t be much better. Now, he’s sacrificing himself just to vent his anger.” “Mr. Lu, everything is as Mr. Lu expected. Mr. Lu said that the government will not ignore the lives of retail investors, as it is the lesser of two evils.” “snort.” Although he snorted coldly, Lu Aijun did not question this sentence. “And Mr. Lu also said that he wanted to protect more people.” “Who does he think he is?!” Although he said this with dissatisfaction, a look of pride appeared on Lu Aijun’s face. Well, it turns out that Lu Aijun is also a tough talker. “Where’s the brat?” “this…” “Tell the truth.” “In the hospital, it seems he was in a traffic accident.” “Ce Na!” Lu Aijun: Take back what you said. What do you mean by grown up? You little brat is bored if he doesn’t get into trouble all day. Chapter 13 Is this really my son? “What? Haven’t you had enough?” Looking at Su Rongrong standing in front of him, Lu Yiming couldn’t help but lean back. The slap just now was quite powerful. Damn that delicate girl, when it comes to taking action, she is not vague at all. That slap seemed like a thousand blows of tempering. If Lu Yiming is given another chance, he probably won’t be able to escape. However, Lu Yiming did not expect that it would be such a coincidence. The person he saved turned out to be Su Rongrong’s grandfather. Doesn’t that mean that in her previous life, Su Rongrong suffered two huge blows both physically and mentally within one day? Moreover, it’s all related to me? “You won’t hide?” “ha…” Su Rongrong asked back. Lu Yiming didn’t know how to answer. “Forget it, I owe you this.” The key point is that Lu Yiming was in the wrong. After all, what happened in the afternoon was still fresh in his mind, especially Su Rongrong’s hot body. I can’t tell at all. That slender waist that can be held in one hand, coupled with… Wait, what am I thinking about? Su Rongrong was also in an extremely complicated mood at the moment. She had just learned the whole story from the traffic police. It was all a coincidence, I misunderstood Lu Yiming. If it weren’t for Lu Yiming, I might never see my grandfather again. However, everything that happened in the afternoon was a huge humiliation for Su Rongrong. How should I face Lu Yiming? “You…I…” “You don’t need to say thank you. I didn’t know he was your grandfather.” “I owe you a favor, but let’s keep things one way and one way.” “Su Rongrong, what if I was really set up?” “I have no idea.” Su Rongrong’s heart was in turmoil at this moment. Yes, in such a short period of time, so many things happened one after another that even Su Rongrong didn’t know how to deal with it. The man in front of her almost raped her. But in the blink of an eye, he became his grandfather’s savior. What should I do? “How about we think it through first? Of course, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer to this matter.” Lu Yiming also wanted to know why Zhang Zun framed him. “How about we take care of it first?” “What?” “nothing.” Su Rongrong’s eyes were somewhat evasive. Well, I showed no mercy at all when I did that just now. The slap mark on Lu Yiming’s face was clearly visible. This attack was extremely cruel. “Take care of grandpa first, and we can talk about other things later. Don’t worry, I will do what I say. I will do whatever you say, whether to kill or chop me up.” Lu Yiming stretched lazily. It was originally a very handsome action, but unfortunately, it was overshadowed by the slap mark on the face. I didn’t expect that my unintentional good deed would actually buy me a lot of time. At least, during this period of time, Su Rongrong should not cause trouble for me for the time being. For Lu Yiming, time is enough. [Ding: Sin value is decreasing, current sin value: 1109193] [Ding, rewards are being distributed. ] 【Get rewards, make your moves with no regrets, and master chess. 】 Lu Yiming: Huh? My own system, the main theme is that it is useless, no regrets after making a move, and mastery of chess? I just want to ask, what’s the point of knowing this? Can it be used to cultivate one’s character? At this time, Lu Yiming’s cell phone also rang. Lu Yiming looked at the number on his phone and was a little overwhelmed for a moment. My father’s phone call. To be honest, the image of my father in my mind has long become blurred. In the previous life, because of his own actions, the Lu family declined, his father became depressed, and eventually died young. It was not until then that Lu Yiming grew up overnight. Unfortunately, it’s too late. “You’re in trouble again, little brat?!” When the call was connected, I heard my father’s roar from the phone. This is how the father and son have always gotten along. In the past, Lu Yiming only felt disgust towards his father, but now think about it, which father doesn’t want his son to become successful? Perhaps it was what I did that made my father extremely disappointed. In the previous life, my father gave up everything to save me. I didn’t even have the chance to say ‘thank you’. “call…” Lu Yiming took a deep breath. “Speaking, have you gotten into trouble?” “It’s been resolved.” “Solved? Solved? Are you still in the hospital? Are you okay? Do you need the driver to take care of it?” In the past, Lu Yiming would have simply complained that his father was nagging. But listening to it now, I can feel the fatherly love hidden in it. “Need not.” “Then come back quickly and stop getting into trouble all day.” “good.” “What did you say?” “I said I’d be back right away.” After hanging up the phone, Lu Yiming waved to Su Rongrong. Su Rongrong: Why does this back view give me a strange feeling? It’s just hell. Lu Yiming started the Ferrari. And at this time in the Lu family. “Hiss… Did this kid take the wrong medicine?” Lu Aijun looked at the phone in his hand with a look of disbelief. When did this brat become so obedient? Not only did he not talk back the entire time, but he just came back so obediently? No, there must be something wrong when something is abnormal. This kid must be planning something. Well, it seems that changing the image of myself in my father’s eyes is a long and arduous journey. “Li Li, tell me what happened this afternoon in detail. Don’t leave out any details.” “Mr. Lu…” Half an hour later. After listening to Li Li’s report, Lu Aijun became more confused. Is this really his son? “Mr. Lu, it seems that you can’t believe it either, but I have reviewed the entire process on the way here just now. I have to admit that every step taken by Mr. Lu is just right.” Whether it was judging the situation or predicting the next actions of the parties, Lu Yiming made the best choice. Especially the timing of intervention, it was perfect. Except for the crazy moment at the end, all the steps today can be called textbook classics in Li Li’s opinion. “Did that brat really do this?” “yes.” “Do you think there is someone behind him?” “Is Mr. Lu afraid that someone will take advantage of Mr. Lu?” “It’s hard to say, but what does the other party want?” “Boss Lu, forgive me for being blunt. If Boss Lu really had someone behind the scenes giving instructions, it wouldn’t be possible for him to be so detailed. This battle was full of twists and turns, but Boss Lu didn’t answer any calls.” “You mean, this is all the brat’s own decision?” “That should be it.” “hiss…” The sudden change was hard for Lu Aijun to accept. “Boss Lu, everything is currently moving in a positive direction.” “I know, but I just can’t accept it for the time being. If this is really the case, I will go burn incense and worship Buddha tomorrow.” Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Mr. Lu is good in every way, except that he is too superstitious. But when I think about it carefully, I feel the same way. I am also shocked by Mr. Lu’s change. Chapter 14: Ginger is still spicy with age Lu Yiming had already driven his Ferrari into the villa at No. 99 Xiangzhang Road. This used to be the French Concession. Today it is a top notch luxury house hidden in the city center. The successive owners of this villa were all great figures who left a deep mark in Chinese history. Lu Aijun spent a lot of money to buy this villa. “Hey, Yiming is back.” As soon as I parked the car, I heard a delicate voice in my ears. “Aunt Zhang.” From a legal perspective, Zhang Qian is Lu Yiming’s stepmother. Lu Yiming’s biological mother and Lu Aijun had a bad relationship, and they agreed to divorce not long after Lu Yiming was born. To be honest, Lu Yiming didn’t have a deep impression of his biological mother. In his previous life, Lu Yiming was forced into a desperate situation, and his biological mother never showed up. It is impossible to say that I have no resentment towards my mother. As for Zhang Qian, she has a good relationship with Lu Aijun. The two had a daughter, Lu Yao, who was two years younger than Lu Yiming and studied business administration at a top foreign university. Although the results are hard to describe, Lu Aijun has the “ability to make money”. Lu Aijun adheres to the basic principle of raising daughters in wealth and sons in poverty. In the Lu family, Lu Yao can get whatever he wants. “Yiming, how come you have time to come back today? It’s just right, I just made the soup, you can try it too.” Zhang Qian’s smile makes people feel like spring breeze. “No, I’ll be leaving in a moment.” To be honest, Aunt Zhang was pretty nice to Lu Yiming. She had never treated Lu Yiming badly since he married into the Lu family. However, Lu Yiming couldn’t call out “Mom” no matter what. Lu Yiming doesn’t like living at home. Although it is a mansion, it lacks freedom. At this moment, Lu Aijun’s car, a Mercedes Benz, drove into the villa. “I’m back, just in time for some soup.” Zhang Qian immediately stepped forward to greet him, and Lu Aijun was very happy about this. At least there is nothing wrong at home to give Lu Aijun a headache. The wife is happy and the family is harmonious. “Thanks a lot.” “Why are you talking about this as an old couple? By the way, Yiming just came back. You two can have a good chat later. You, haven’t you been looking forward to your son’s return?” “What are you talking about? I’ll be very lucky if he doesn’t cause any trouble for a day.” In front of Lu Yiming, Lu Aijun will always be positioned as a strict father. But it’s also true, if it weren’t for Lu Aijun’s suppression, God knows how much trouble Lu Yiming could have caused. As for missing his son, Lu Aijun said that this was simply impossible. “Okay, there’s no one else at home. Why are you pretending all day? When your son leaves, you’ll regret it again.” Lu Aijun: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Can you give yourself some face? In fact, Lu Yiming understood all this. It’s just that I’m used to being free and undisciplined, and after finally getting into university, I just want to let myself go. In the previous life, he let things go too much, which brought disaster upon the Lu family. Unfortunately, I understood everything too late. “Come with me.” Lu Aijun glanced at Lu Yiming beside him, said something casually, and walked towards the study. “Go ahead. Even though your dad is serious, he actually can’t bear to scold you.” Zhang Qian plays the role of a ‘lubricant’ at home, which is also related to the fact that Zhang Qian herself does not fight or compete. Zhang Qian is a woman who is easily satisfied. She doesn’t have much ambition and just wants to live her own life. Lu Yiming nodded and followed Lu Aijun. “smoke?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What kind of magical start is this? It was the first time someone offered me a cigarette. “Won’t.” “You’re not like this outside.” “It’s just a show.” “It won’t be good.” Seeing this, Lu Aijun simply put Zhonghua away. “Tell me, why did you take the initiative today?” “Didn’t Li Li report this to you?” “I want to hear your explanation.” “It’s pretty much the same.” “Have your wings hardened?” “Of course not, it’s just that business wars are different now than they were before.” “Tell me about it.” This was the first time that the father and son could sit down and talk to each other. Lu Aijun saw the changes in Lu Yiming. It can even be said that Lu Aijun was very satisfied with Lu Yiming’s performance at the moment. In the past, Lu Yiming would become weak kneed and unlikely to achieve anything great after seeing me, but after meeting me today, he could actually talk freely in front of me. It is said that it only takes a moment for a man to grow up, and it seems that this is really true. “Nowadays, information is the most important thing, and the old ways are slowly being phased out.” “It seems you have something in mind.” information? It just means that the way you started your business is no longer working. Indeed, Lu Aijun also admitted that the interests of the Lu Group faced unprecedented challenges in this foreign trade distribution. The industry is developing rapidly, which is something Lu Aijun did not expect. “How do you explain the last eight minutes?” Originally, the Lu Group did make a lot of money. However, Lu Yiming rashly took over the huge short orders thrown by Wan Guo in the last eight minutes, causing the Lu Group to operate in violation of regulations. The final penalty decision was officially announced half an hour ago. There is no need to talk about Wanguo. After all, for Wanguo Securities, the punishment has no meaning at all. With a debt of nearly 5 billion, Wan Guo cannot pay it back no matter what, and bankruptcy reorganization is the only way out. As for the Lu Group. The exchange imposed a lighter punishment. But the team was still fined 140 million yuan in deposit for the last eight minutes. And all transactions in the last eight minutes were ruled invalid. The final closing price of the treasury bond was 152.67 yuan. This will be a huge loss for the Lu Group. Li Li has reported the final gains and losses. Although there is no loss of money, the gap between the Lu Group’s profit of 300 million and the current profit of 1 small goal is huge. Obviously, Lu Group doesn’t have to do anything to keep the 300 million in profits. “Your conscience will be eaten to the bone in the business world.” “I can earn this little money back.” “Blindly confident, with a big mouth, so you can come to work in the company directly after graduation.” This is Lu Aijun’s ultimate goal. “Can.” “Yes?” You agree now? I have more things to say. This brat always liked to go against me. If you say east, the boy will definitely go west. If you hit the dog, the boy will definitely chase the chicken. This time, the agreement was agreed so readily that Lu Aijun found it hard to accept. This feeling of punching cotton really made Lu Aijun uncomfortable. “Set up an investment department and I will be in charge.” “hehe…” Sure enough, there are conditions, the Investment Department? What a big tone. “Also, send Li Li to me.” It’s really a big mouth for the lion. “Why do you do that?” “Since I am your son, the Lu family can only be handed over to me from now on.” Lu Aijun: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… This really can’t be refuted. “OK.” “You promised?” You agreed so readily? “Because I’m your father, everything is yours once I close my eyes.” Checkmate! Well, old ginger is still spicy. Chapter 15 [True Love] In 1995, the Magic City was brightly lit at night. The earliest nightclub is in Shanghai, and bars have only become popular in recent times. Located on Hengshan Road, “True Love” has become a gathering place for fashionable men and women of this era. It can even be described as hard to come by. “Coming?” “Old rules.” Lu Yiming likes this relaxing atmosphere very much. The boss is a sister in the same circle. A true returnee. The value of returnees in this era cannot be compared with that in later generations. However, this boss is also an interesting person. After returning to China, he did not go to work in his own company. Instead, start your own business. Brought the overseas bar model back to China. I have to say, the vision is really good. As soon as the bar opened, it quickly became popular. No additional publicity is needed. Nine out of ten young people who take a taxi to Hengshan Road at 10 o’clock in the evening are here for “true love”. “Little brother, sister treats you today.” puff… Well, the boss is a woman, and she’s a very famous lady with flaming red lips in the circle. It’s not that the boss has a chaotic private life. On the contrary, although he dresses flashy all day long, he is actually quite conservative. Because there are all kinds of people in the bar, and after seeing so many of them, you will naturally become more immune to them. “Why? You want me to marry into your family?” “If you are willing, I would certainly love it. I am just afraid that your father will come to kill us, and my small family cannot stop him.” Only in front of Lu Yiming can Sister Qian act unscrupulously. The two have known each other since childhood. Back then, Lu Yiming was a little follower following behind Sister Qian, but he never expected that he has grown up so big in the blink of an eye. The little guy with snot hanging from his nose back then has now grown into a handsome young man. “Come on, who in our circle dares not give Sister Qian face?” Although Sister Qian’s family is not as good as the Lu family in business, they have a good uncle. One of the serious city leaders, although not a formal one, but he is in charge of a powerful department. Otherwise, it is not an easy task for a girl to open such a big bar in a city full of good and bad people. “Hey, did you put honey on your mouth today?” Sister Qian covered her mouth and laughed twice, then personally made a glass of Manhattan for Lu Yiming. “Sister Qian, do you really want to take me down tonight? It turns out you have been coveting me for a long time.” The glass of Manhattan in front of you is known as the queen of cocktails. Ever since the cocktail was invented, people have been obsessed with Manhattan. No matter which bar’s drink list, it is indispensable. Whiskey + absinthe + vanilla, and finally garnish the glass with a red cherry. The taste is intense and direct. Of course, the most important thing is the strong momentum. It is quite easy for freshmen to fall into it. “Stop talking nonsense. Others want to drink but can’t.” Sister Qian curled her lips and made herself a glass of Bloody Mary. It is also a strong flavored cocktail. Made from a mixture of vodka, tomato juice, lemon slices and celery root. For domestic guests who are new to cocktails, the taste is already quite explosive. But Sister Qian also made some innovations on this basis. Salt, black pepper and chili juice make this Bloody Mary more red in color and taste salty and sweet. Anyway, Lu Yiming really couldn’t appreciate it. “For friendship.” “For tonight.” Do you need a reason to drink? need. But for Lu Yiming and Sister Qian, any reason would do. 【Celebrating having a cat】 【Celebrating Jintian waking up one hour later】 【Celebrating that I got a pimple today】 It can all be a reason to have a drink. “On the way here just now, I saw two stores being renovated.” If there is money to be made, naturally some people will want to get a piece of it. Lu Yiming, who had memories of later life, knew very well that the bar on Hengshan Road had been popular for more than ten years. For the city of Shanghai, which is easily bored with the old and easily attracted by the new, this is a very remarkable thing. [True Love] became popular, and naturally, the bosses who followed suit followed suit. “That’s normal. Anyway, there are too many guests to entertain them all.” Sister Qian, on the other hand, looked indifferent and had adjusted her mentality very well. No matter how powerful you are, it is impossible to achieve exclusive operation, which goes against the laws of the market. “It’s a good attitude.” The two of them can talk about anything because they have similar personalities. “Brother, why don’t you consider your sister?” “puff…” Although this kind of words were always on people’s lips as a joke. But Lu Yiming could see that Sister Qian was serious when she said this just now. “Don’t scare me.” “Forget it if you don’t want to. If I beg you, anyone who wants to have sex with me can be sent from here to the Bund.” Well, okay, that’s not an exaggeration. Sister Qian is mature and charming, and countless men want to have a kiss with her. Besides, 25 is the most charming stage for women. “Being forced to get married?” Lu Yiming quickly found the key point. After these words were spoken, Sister Qian looked depressed and drank the Bloody Mary in her hand in one gulp. It seems that I was right. “I’m only 25 years old. He doesn’t know why they are so anxious.” He complained unhappily. But the problem circle is so small that Sister Qian looks down on people outside the circle. The one that is worth looking at seems to be… Sister Qian secretly glanced at Lu Yiming in front of her and sighed in her heart. “Sister Qian is a career oriented person.” “Haha, if I had a man to rely on, would I need to show up in public and drink with you stinky men?” Sudden face to face. Flirting, blatant flirting. Lu Yiming reacted belatedly and realized that he had just been teased? It was so close, almost sticking to me. The faint scent of alcohol from Sister Qian lingered on his nose. At this moment, I couldn’t control my heartbeat. 【Fairy】 Definitely a goblin. Even someone as experienced as me could hardly resist it. Especially at this moment, Lu Yiming lowered his head slightly, and what caught his eyes was the snow white area on Sister Qian’s chest. It’s really well capitalized. Lu Yiming swallowed subconsciously. “Puff…” Sister Qian saw all the subtle changes in expression. “Little pervert.” Sister Qian looked very proud, it seems that she is still very charming. “Even though we are familiar with each other, there is no need for you to stop treating me as a man.” The action just now was too dangerous, it was simply playing with fire. “I don’t think you have the courage.” He even deliberately puffed out his chest. Lu Yiming surrendered completely. As for the men around, they could only watch helplessly. I wish I could replace her, but unfortunately, I don’t have such good fortune at all. Who is Sister Qian? This bar is under the protection of the Municipal Bureau. When we first opened, some foolish people came to cause trouble, but… there was no result. Even if they had ten times the courage, they wouldn’t dare to cause trouble here. Chapter 16 The Sins of the Previous Life “How about it?” “What?” “Marry into the wife’s family. You won’t lose anything anyway.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Can’t get through? “You’re not at a disadvantage. A sister should have a good figure. Just look at your long legs and your figure. How many men drooled at your sight.” Well, Lu Yiming said that this is the first time he has seen someone promote himself in this way. “What are you looking at!” While Sister Qian was working hard to promote herself, she found that Lu Yiming’s eyes were not on her at all. Instead, the wild men around her were drooling at her. Hey, do you think I’m someone you guys would care about? He showed a fierce look on his face, which immediately frightened the villain. “Think about it. I have my own business after all, so it shouldn’t be a problem for me to support you.” Although Lu Yiming is the only heir to the Lu Group. But now all I can do is watch. Sister Qian is different. All her money is earned by herself and she can spend it however she wants. If you say you’re not moved, you’re not a man. A woman who is three years older than a man will bring him wealth. What’s more, Sister Qian is good in every way. She is good at both entertaining guests and cooking in the kitchen, and the cocktails she makes are widely praised. In bed, even more… Uh, wait, where does this fit in? “Sister Qian, eh?” Lu Yiming was just about to find an excuse to get away with it when he saw a familiar figure in the crowd. Why is it her? “What’s wrong?” Sister Qian saw that Lu Yiming was in a daze. Could it be that he met an acquaintance? This is quite normal. Sister Qian’s place is the only one of its kind in Shanghai. Friends in the circle would come to support us every now and then, and it was normal to meet a few acquaintances. But as Lu Yiming looked over, Sister Qian’s brows furrowed slightly. It was not a friend in the circle, but a newly hired waiter. At this moment, Lu Yiming was immersed in the memories of his previous life. Cheng Xiao. The two campus beauties of Shanghai University are equally beautiful. Su Rongrong is cold and arrogant, and she looks down on boys. It can be viewed from a distance but not played with. The other one is Cheng Xiao. In terms of appearance, she is not inferior to Su Rongrong at all. However, Cheng Xiao seems more low key. Although she is beautiful, it is a pity that Cheng Xiao is unanimously regarded as a common beauty by the boys at Shanghai University. The lotus emerges from clear water, naturally without any embellishment. Always bare faced. Never cared about what to wear, let alone dressing up. It is said that Cheng Xiao’s family background is not good. Although he is a native of Shanghai, his temperament always seems a little petty. At Shanghai University, the two campus beauties are often compared with each other. Su Rongrong always has one head over Cheng Xiao. There has been a joke circulating in Shanghai University about two campus beauties. Su Rongrong disdains to fall in love, while Cheng Xiao simply has no time for it. I heard that after Cheng Xiao was admitted to university, apart from attending classes, she worked part time jobs everywhere. Either I am working or I am on my way to work. He worked as a temporary worker in his freshman and sophomore years. I heard that after his junior year, he even went to work part time in a company. Unexpectedly, even the evening time was not spared. “know?” “classmate.” “Hey, it turns out you are a favored child of heaven.” Sister Qian was very impressed by this girl and she interviewed her herself. But for Lu Yiming, in addition to these, he and Cheng Xiao had more stories in his previous life. In the previous life, he had completely offended Su Rongrong, who hated him to the core. The Lu family completely collapsed under the suppression of the Su family. Lu Yiming turned completely evil. When he was trying to make a comeback, he met Cheng Xiao, who was a worker. For some unknown reason, Cheng Xiao switched to Lu Yiming’s company. Lu Yiming naturally recognized this school beauty who was as famous as Su Rongrong back then. Perhaps it was due to his inner distortion, after spending some time together, Lu Yiming launched a fierce pursuit of Cheng Xiao. Cheng Xiao was no match for Lu Yiming and soon fell into the love trap woven by Lu Yiming. But Cheng Xiao didn’t know that no matter how much they loved each other, in Lu Yiming’s heart, she would always be a substitute for Su Rongrong. The more passionate the love, the greater the hurt. Eventually all the truth was revealed. How could Cheng Xiao accept this? On the night of separation, Cheng Xiao cried heartbreakingly. Lu Yiming was her first love, but she never expected that the love she had always longed for would hurt her so badly. Cheng Xiao chose to leave, leave this sad city. Many years later, Lu Yiming found out that Cheng Xiao was pregnant when she left. Scumbag. In my previous life, I was a scumbag to the extreme. No wonder it takes a lifetime to pay for this sin. Lu Yiming admitted that Cheng Xiao was very good, really very good, but it was a pity that she was the only one in his heart. In his previous life, Lu Yiming felt sorry for Cheng Xiao, but he did not expect that after his rebirth, he would meet his old friend so soon. Looking at Cheng Xiao’s busy figure at this moment, the smile on her face is so real. After being with me in the previous life, Cheng Xiao rarely showed such a genuine smile. I always ask myself to get used to the so called upper class life. I had to relearn how to behave and even how to sit. She turned out to be unhappy. The life that I give myself is not what Cheng Xiao wants. It was me who restricted Cheng Xiao’s freedom. “Yiming?” “Lu Yiming!” “What?” “Ha, men, they really get tired of the old and love the new. Why? She’s younger than me, so I’m attracted to her.” Women’s sixth sense is quite sensitive. Sister Qian could sense that Lu Yiming had a special feeling for her newly hired waiter. “Sister Qian…” “Okay, I didn’t expect that it would be your classmate. When filling out the information, I didn’t leave any information.” “Temporary worker?” “You can’t say that. The little girl is very good and can endure hardships. You know, little girls in the Magic City are very delicate. She is so beautiful and can endure hardships. I plan to train her well.” It can be seen that Sister Qian really likes Cheng Xiao. I just didn’t expect that there would be such a “fate”. “But now I’m afraid I can’t keep her.” As a top student at Shanghai University, college students of this era don’t have to worry about finding a good job. I’m afraid that I won’t be able to keep people coming to my small bar. “Her family is in a difficult situation.” “It’s obvious. If it weren’t difficult, no one would come here to suffer.” It’s not about how tiring the work is, the key is the issue of working hours. Open until 2am every day. I have to go back to school to attend classes the next day. Even the strongest person can’t stand it. Lu Yiming was looking at Sister Qian at this time, but before he could open his mouth, he was interrupted by Sister Qian. “Okay, I know what you are going to say. I will give her a new position later. It will be easy and her salary will not be reduced. Okay, my Master Lu.” “I owe you one.” “Since I’m so nice, please consider me.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Chapter 17: Old fashioned plot In the previous life, I was indeed sorry to Cheng Xiao. In Lu Yiming’s heart, Cheng Xiao has always been a substitute for Su Rongrong, which is really unfair to Cheng Xiao. In this life, I hope we will no longer have any intersection. Silently guarding each other may be the best compensation. Lu Yiming admitted that he had the potential to be a scumbag. But this is at least better than hurting Cheng Xiao again. But often things go against one’s wishes. “Let go.” Amid the noisy music in the bar, Cheng Xiao’s angry voice was heard. I just went to deliver wine, but I didn’t expect that the other party would take advantage of the alcohol to touch me. “Why pretend to be innocent? This job must be tiring. Why don’t you just follow me and enjoy the good life?” The man had a lewd expression on his face, and his eyes were full of lust when he looked at Cheng Xiao. It’s rare to meet such a beautiful girl. It’s a pity for her to work as a waitress here. This pair of long legs is enough to keep me entertained for a whole year. When had Cheng Xiao ever experienced such a scene? In a panic, the tray in his hand lost its balance and all the drinks on it spilled onto the guests. Pants, in particular, have become the hardest hit. “Ce Na!” The man’s face immediately darkened. After all, I have a successful career, otherwise I wouldn’t have the spare money to spend in the bar. I was just teasing him out of boredom, but I didn’t expect that I would end up in such a big embarrassment. The guests around were all watching the fun, where could I put my face? “Yes…I’m sorry.” Cheng Xiao had never encountered such a situation before, and for a moment, she didn’t know what to do. After all, he is a customer of the bar. If he complains about me, I might lose my job. Cheng Xiao finally found a high paying temporary job and she really didn’t want to lose it. “I wiped it off.” The man spread his legs like this. All the drinks just now were spilled on my crotch, which is really… Wiped it? Isn’t that… “I…I can compensate you with a pair of pants.” “pay?” The man’s smile became more and more wild. It was obvious that the other person was inexperienced and the easiest to control. Maybe if I use some tricks, I can try it tonight. Once a man’s mind is filled with lust, he will do things without considering the consequences. “I have no problem with money, but you have to clean it up for me.” As he said that, he grabbed Cheng Xiao’s hand and pulled it towards his crotch. “Let go.” At this moment, Cheng Xiao was frightened out of her wits. However, the other party was too strong and he couldn’t struggle free at all. “Fuck, you are so arrogant in my territory. Don’t worry, Yiming, I will never let your classmates suffer any loss.” This time, even Sister Qian couldn’t bear it anymore. He immediately stood up and tried to stop it. But he found that Lu Yiming, who was originally sitting in front of him, had disappeared. “So anxious?” You just said you were classmates, but now that something has happened, you want to stand up for justice? Haha, man! Since Lu Yiming had spoken up, Sister Qian simply sat back on the high stool at the bar, picked up the Bloody Mary on the bar, and continued to watch the show. As for whether he was worried that Lu Yiming would suffer a loss? Are you kidding? This kid has been a devil since he was young. It would be a huge joke if I suffered a loss at the hands of such a person. But at this moment, Cheng Xiao fell into despair. There were so many guests around, but no one was willing to seek justice. All of them had an expression of watching a show. I wish it were more exciting. At this moment, the scene in front of his eyes suddenly darkened and a tall figure appeared in front of him. The man’s dirty hands were immediately opened. By the way, he protected Cheng Xiao behind him. “Who dares to ruin my good deeds?!” The man raised his head with an unhappy look on his face, but what greeted him was a bottle of beer pouring down. It was so refreshing that it chilled me to the bone. “Wow…” “Handsome!” There was a burst of exclamations from all around, and the show seemed to be getting better and better. “You are sick!” The man stood up suddenly, only to find that he was still far behind the other person. The man was only about 1.7 meters tall, so compared to Lu Yiming’s height, he was naturally at a disadvantage. “I’ll help you sober up. You’re welcome.” “Do you know who I am?” The man was about to threaten the other person, but Lu Yiming picked up a bottle of beer on the table and continued to bathe the man. “It seems that he is still not awake. He is being obscene in public. Everyone is watching.” “you…” “No, who are you? You are not worthy to talk to me.” Well, when it comes to arrogance, Young Master Lu can be a hundred times more arrogant. “I am a guest here.” “Coincidentally, me too.” “Boss, where is the boss here? Is there still any law?” The man’s momentum was completely suppressed by Lu Yiming. At this time, do you think of being reasonable? Sorry, when has that dude ever been reasonable? The next moment, Lu Yiming actually picked up another bottle of beer. Now there is no dry place on the man’s body. “I’m going to call the police. Everyone saw it. He did it on purpose.” “Call the police? Here, use my phone.” As Lu Yiming spoke, he even cooperated by handing his cell phone to the man. this… She looks so calm, is it possible to say that she has no one to rely on? The man stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do. “Aren’t you going to call the police? Hurry up, my time is precious.” “you…” “Looks like you’re sober now, so get out of here.” Lu Yiming waved his hands as if he was shooing away a fly. This is the first time I have encountered such an arrogant person. “I am a guest, why do you…” “Oh, Mr. Lu’s words are my words.” The man wanted to struggle, but he was interrupted by Sister Qian who had been watching the show before he could finish his words. With charming steps, Sister Qian twisted her slender waist and came to Lu Yiming’s side. “Who are you?” “Unfortunately, you are the owner of this bar. By the way, from now on, you are not welcome here.” It was obvious that Sister Qian came here to support Lu Yiming. [True Love] The owner of the bar is definitely someone that no man can afford to offend. Even if we don’t know Sister Qian’s background, she is able to run such a big bar in the city center. No one would believe her if she said there was no one behind her. Middle aged men are indeed successful in their careers, but it depends on who you compare them with. In front of Sister Qian, he is nothing but a clown. “You’re not leaving yet? Do you want me to settle accounts with you? You’re really bold to bully my employees.” Sister Qian’s eyes are majestic without any anger. The man originally wanted to say a few harsh words, but when he opened his mouth, he couldn’t utter a single word. In full view of everyone, he fled the bar in disgrace. “Tsk tsk, Young Master Lu is so majestic.” “It’s boring.” “What? Not having fun yet?” “It feels like bullying.” Lu Yiming curled his lips. For a small character like this, it was just like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. “Ha, three bottles of beer, I’ll charge you later.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Chapter 18: Golden Scales Are Not for the Pond “Thank you, boss. It’s my fault that I didn’t handle it well.” It was just a farce and the bar soon returned to normal. At this time, Cheng Xiao came to Sister Qian with a nervous look on her face. If it weren’t for me, I wouldn’t have brought so much trouble to the bar. “Oh? Then how should we deal with it?” Sister Qian’s question completely stumped Cheng Xiao. Yes, if it happened again, what should she do? Could it be that I will be bullied next time? “Stupid, go ahead. I hate men using force. Don’t worry, if anything goes wrong, I’ll take the blame for you.” There’s nothing that can be done. Cheng Xiao has a pretty face that could bring disaster to the country and the people. Even Young Master Lu has to stand up for her. But then again, shouldn’t Cheng Xiao be the one to thank Lu Yiming the most? If Lu Yiming hadn’t come to her rescue just now, the little girl might have suffered a loss. “What? Shouldn’t you thank your classmates properly?” “classmate?” Cheng Xiao’s eyes were confused. Whose classmate? This look doesn’t seem like it’s fake. “You don’t know him?” Sister Qian pointed at Lu Yiming with an incredulous look on her face. By the way, this is Mr. Lu, the famous Mr. Lu in the Shanghai playboy circle. As a classmate, how come you don’t know him? So after all this time, we still haven’t figured out the identity of our savior? It’s totally off the mark. Sister Qian’s eyes kept moving between Lu Yiming and Cheng Xiao, and she was clearly in spectator mode. What is this? The domineering president falls in love with the pretty girl? What is the story that must be told between the dandy boy and the school beauty? I didn’t realize that my little brother was having so much fun. “Boss, I…” Cheng Xiao really doesn’t know Lu Yiming. Although, Lu Yiming is really famous in Magic City University. But Cheng Xiao is either working or on her way to work. It’s already amazing that she can keep up her academic performance. As for being the school belle or school hunk, that’s really not what Cheng Xiao cares about. “Ahem, it’s nothing. The King of Xiang is interested, but the Goddess is ruthless. That’s good.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I give full marks to this forced explanation. “That’s not the case. Don’t scare people.” “Oh, you’re reluctant to give it up?” Lu Yiming: Wait, didn’t you just ask me to consider marrying into the family? Why do I suddenly feel like a matchmaker now? Lu Yiming really couldn’t understand Sister Qian’s actions. Besides, I really don’t want to have anything to do with Cheng Xiao in this life. Is it possible to hurt the other person again? In his previous life, Lu Yiming didn’t want to think about Cheng Xiao’s desperate eyes. “Okay, I’m just curious. Cheng Xiao, why didn’t you tell me that you’re a top student at Magic City University?” It’s such a waste of talent for a college student to be a waiter in his own bar. “Boss, I really didn’t hide it on purpose. You can rest assured that I can really balance work and study, and I will definitely not cause you any trouble.” Cheng Xiao was really anxious. The salary for this job is not low. I was finally accepted after much difficulty. I can’t… “I don’t mean to reject you. By the way, what’s your major?” “Business Administration.” “Oh, you have good taste.” There are not many students who choose business administration as their major these days. This major was not as popular as it is in later generations. It can be said that today’s business administration cultivates scarce talents for management positions. “Boss, I just…” “Okay, change your position. It happens that we need someone who knows how to manage here. You can be in charge of the management of the bar.” “I can’t…” Cheng Xiao was completely dumbfounded. How did she suddenly become a manager? What’s more, what I learned was just book knowledge and I never put it into practice, so I was afraid that I would mess it up. “I’m not worried, why are you worried?” Sister Qian waved her hand domineeringly and said, “It’s just a bar, no big deal.” I believe in Lu Yiming’s vision. If I really lost money, I would ask Lu Yiming for compensation. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What does this have to do with me? However, the management position can better protect Cheng Xiao. At least those men with ulterior motives will not dare to be too blatant. Lu Yiming did not object. “It’s settled. You’ll have today off. Go back and prepare well. By the way, your salary will be increased from 1,200 to 2,000.” Increase salary? This was a great help to Cheng Xiao. After all, home… “How about it? Do you want to continue drinking here? Or do you want to send your classmates back to school?” “Boss, I…I can go back by myself.” At this moment, Cheng Xiao was like a frightened rabbit, flustered, but particularly cute. He didn’t even dare to look at Lu Yiming. This performance is really… “I’m not going.” Lu Yiming also refused immediately. For some reason, when Lu Yiming said this, Cheng Xiao suddenly felt empty in her heart. Why do I feel this way? Obviously, I don’t know him at all. Yes, it must be because he saved me just now, it must be like this. Women are always trying to deceive themselves. After Cheng Xiao left, Lu Yiming drank the cocktail in the glass. “Leaving now?” “I’ve already tasted the wine and joined in the fun, are you really going to stay and get drunk?” “You don’t even give me a chance. I’m still thinking about picking up the corpse.” Sister Qian said this half truthfully, but her eyes could not hide her interest in Lu Yiming. “No, the relationship is good now.” “I’m not afraid, so what are you afraid of?” “I’m afraid you can’t help yourself. I’m a charming poison.” “Pah, can you have some shame?” Sister Qian spat and said, “I haven’t seen this guy for a while, but he has become even more shameless.” But to be honest, I am increasingly unable to understand this naughty younger brother. The fallout from the national debt has already spread. This is no secret to those in the circle. It is not difficult to find Lu Yiming. But no one expected it. Although he had the title of a playboy, he managed to accomplish a great thing without making any noise. How did Lu Yiming do it? “Interesting, little brother. I am becoming more and more interested in you.” Looking at Lu Yiming’s leaving back, Sister Qian couldn’t help but mutter to herself. The golden scales cannot stay in the pond. Once they encounter wind and clouds, they turn into dragons. What other surprises will Lu Yiming bring? Thinking of her uncle’s sigh, Sister Qian couldn’t help but feel excited. [The Lu family kid is amazing. I’ve seen many people make money, but this is the first time he has stood up for himself. China lacks such conscientious businessmen.] These are my uncle’s exact words. Now it seems that this brat is indeed good at it. However, in the bar, there was a pair of scrutinizing eyes always fixed on Lu Yiming, which Lu Yiming did not notice. Chapter 19 The Student Union President’s Affectionate Confession Magic University. Walking on the campus again, Lu Yiming was filled with emotion. After leaving university in his previous life, Lu Yiming never came back. Perhaps for Lu Yiming, Magic City University is a painful memory. I have been avoiding it all the time. There is still more than a month left until graduation. Those who have completed sufficient credits and are able to graduate successfully have basically started sending out their resumes everywhere. It is still very easy for college students to find jobs in this era. Taking civil service exams, working for foreign companies, or state owned enterprises are all good choices. They are all working hard for their future. “Another senior is confessing his love.” “No, it’s so romantic?” “Isn’t graduation season the season for breakups? Why are you confessing your feelings now?” “Seize the last chance and leave no regrets in your college life.” “That makes sense.” The discussion of several school girls reached Lu Yiming’s ears. Seize the last chance? That’s interesting. “The target is Su Rongrong, and I don’t know if it will succeed.” “Come on, Senior Sister Su is very proud. Not everyone can maintain a zero scandal record.” “Not necessarily. The one who confessed his love this time was Senior Brother Hu, the dream man in many girls’ minds.” Su Rongrong? Lu Yiming was stunned at first, and then his pace slowed down immediately. Of course Lu Yiming knew the Senior Brother Hu mentioned by these schoolmates. Hu Wei is indeed good looking, comparable to myself. [System: (ˉ▽ˉ;)…, the host’s shamelessness is truly unmatched] However, Hu Wei is indeed a prominent figure at Shanghai University. I joined the Student Union in my freshman year, became a minister in my sophomore year, and successfully became the president of the Student Union in my junior year. During this period, many cross college activities were held and achieved great success. No matter who he is with, he is always gentle and polite. No wonder he is called the campus male god. However, in the previous life, I had never heard of this confession. Yes, during this period of time in my previous life, I was extremely anxious and overwhelmed. The Lu Group had exhausted all its working capital, and he was taken by his father to visit business partners door to door to seek help. After that, he had to face the Su family’s crazy attack, so he had no mood to ask about these things. Of course, Su Rongrong in her previous life probably wasn’t in the mood to deal with Hu Wei’s affectionate confession. after all… At this time, Lu Yiming involuntarily took a step towards the girls’ dormitory area. The dormitory area for seniors seemed particularly empty. Except for those who decided to take the test, everyone else was busy looking for their future. But today is different. Early in the morning, the downstairs of the girls’ dormitory was particularly lively. Hu Wei made sufficient preparations. For this confession, Hu Wei had banners and balloons. Even the best band from the last school singing competition was invited by Hu Wei. “Su Rongrong, it’s Su Rongrong, she’s coming down.” “There’s a chance.” There were many onlookers around, and the male god was confessing his love to the school beauty. How could such a scene be missed? Normally, School Beauty Su would never show up in such a situation, but she made an exception today. Could it be that the student president is really the one and only lover in School Beauty Su’s mind? “Su Rongrong…” When Hu Wei saw Su Rongrong, there were stars in his eyes. The music starts. My love is like the tide, love pushes me towards you like the tide, follows closely, love is like the tide, it surrounds you and me. I didn’t expect that Hu Wei is quite good at bringing classic love songs of this era to life. “What a pity.” Lu Yiming curled his lips. If he used this trick on a young girl who had not experienced much of the world, it would probably move her to tears. But for Su Rongrong, it was not surprising. If the daughter of the Su family was taken down in such a small scene, wouldn’t it become a huge joke if it got out? “Su Rongrong, when I first saw you, I was deeply attracted to you.” “How many nights have I thought of you involuntarily, and I have always wanted to muster up the courage to express my love.” “I want to put the best of everything in front of you.” “For our future, I have been working hard. I have been hired by a local company and I can promise our future. Su Rongrong, please give me a chance, let me hold your hand and spend the rest of my life with you.” “Puff…” Lu Yiming swore that he really couldn’t help it for the moment. After all, such an affectionate confession deeply moved the group of little girls around him who were longing for love. As for Su Rongrong, Lu Yiming clearly discovered that the tip of Su Rongrong’s eyebrows involuntarily curled up. Based on Lu Yiming’s understanding of Su Rongrong, she should have been impatient a long time ago. “Is it over?” “It’s over…” What kind of opening statement is this? Hu Wei has imagined many possible outcomes. If Su Rongrong hesitated, he would go a step further and express his persistence under the gaze of everyone. Even if he was rejected, he would not give up. Hu Wei firmly believed that he would be able to successfully move Su Rongrong. However, the question “It’s over?” completely confused Hu Wei. What does this mean? Could it be that the scene is not big enough? Or that the preparations are not enough? “Oh, please make way.” At this moment, Su Rongrong acted as if nothing had happened, as if the person being confessed to was not her at all. There was no ripple in my heart. “Su Rongrong, I’m serious. I can give everything for you.” “Promise him, promise him!” No one knew who was leading the discussion at the scene, but the crowd seemed to be moved by Hu Wei’s deep affection and started shouting loudly. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I am very familiar with this routine. I just discovered Hu Wei’s little trick. Hey, it was a pre arranged trick. These tricks are left over from my buddies. Lu Yiming was very familiar with this in his previous life. What? You still want to play the game of “moral kidnapping”? Forcing Su Rongrong to agree? Hu Wei planned everything, but unfortunately, he didn’t understand Su Rongrong at all. “Get out of the way.” At this time, Su Rongrong had completely lost her patience. I have to rush to the hospital today. My grandfather has to have a heart check up and I have to go with him. Otherwise, if there wasn’t enough time, Su Rongrong wouldn’t have gone downstairs at all. Even if Hu Wei shouted his heart out, he probably wouldn’t get any response from Su Rongrong. “Student Su Rongrong, I am serious. I can swear… I…” “Pa pa pa, so touching.” Just when Hu Wei refused to give up, Lu Yiming squeezed next to Su Rongrong while clapping. “Lu Yiming?” If Hu Wei is the representative of positive energy in Shanghai University, then Lu Yiming is definitely the model of a playboy. Of course, Lu Yiming said that he did not bully boys or girls at school, so how could he become a villain? But one thing is certain, Hu Wei is very afraid of Lu Yiming. What can the student union president do? It’s okay to show off in school, but when you really enter society, you’ll be nothing. At most, you can only prove your ability. Hu Wei is just a child from an ordinary family and has to rely on his own efforts for everything, unlike Lu Yiming who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Chapter 20 The story of the school beauty and the dandy “Who is this? So annoying.” “That’s right, why do you owe me so much for ruining the male god’s affectionate confession?” “Shh, keep your voice down, that’s Lu Yiming from the Economics Department.” “He is Lu Yiming?” “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t come to school?” “Is it Lu Yiming who beat up a senior and sent him to the hospital during his freshman year, but he himself was not hurt at all?” Well, there are quite a few legends about Lu Yiming in school, but unfortunately, almost none of them are positive. In the first semester of the freshman year, the senior student in the Life Department wanted to give the new junior student a warning. This is also a tradition retained by the university to let freshmen know that they should respect their seniors. Checking internal affairs is the best excuse. As luck would have it, these seniors chose the wrong opponents. They actually bullied Young Master Lu Yiming. Naturally, she couldn’t tolerate a playboy like Lu Yiming. There was an immediate conflict. That’s fine, both sides have suffered a loss and no one wants to make a big deal out of it. As a result, the next day, several seniors were beaten up. Even a fool knows who did this. But Lu Yiming did not receive any punishment. As for the senior who was beaten, he also kept silent about it. Just like that, Lu Yiming became someone that the school absolutely could not mess with. The legend of Lu Yiming has always been circulating in Shanghai University. Hu Wei didn’t expect that his last confession of college life would be interrupted by Lu Yiming. This is intolerable! This is the happiness of the rest of my life. “Student Lu Yiming, what does this have to do with you?” “Does it count if you disturbed me? Man, your method is so old fashioned and melodramatic.” “you…” “What? Do you really think that you can force classmate Su to submit by finding a few people to set the pace?” “That’s not what I meant.” Hu Wei was obviously a little flustered. He really wanted to stir up public opinion so that Su Rongrong would have to agree to him. But now that Lu Yiming had ruthlessly exposed his plan, all his efforts had been completely in vain. “Tsk tsk, man, that’s not how you chase a girl. Forget it, I guess you can’t teach her that, so let’s just go.” “Lu Yiming, what does my confession have to do with you?” Hu Wei was really anxious. Graduation season was approaching, and if he missed this opportunity, he was afraid that he and Su Rongrong would never see each other again. Even if the other person is Lu Yiming, it cannot stop me from pursuing love. “She’s my girlfriend, do you think she can mind my business?” “impossible!” The direction Lu Yiming pointed was exactly where Su Rongrong was. “How is it impossible?” “How could Su Rongrong fall for you!” How could the dignified school beauty Su fall for a playboy? Absolutely not. “boring.” Su Rongrong looked at her watch. The agreed time was almost up. For Su Rongrong, such a farce would only affect her mood. “Did you hear that? I said you were boring.” Lu Yiming was not embarrassed at all. He grinned at Hu Wei, followed Su Rongrong and left happily. Leaving behind a group of people in disarray. this… Is what Lu Yiming said true or false? Did the school beauty Su really get together with the dandy boy? If this is true, it will be a huge blow to many people. I guess I can’t bear the thought of losing to a playboy. Sure enough, society is realistic. What’s the use of being excellent? When you enter society, what matters is your family background and connections, not your hard work and diligence. Lu Yiming gave everyone a vivid social lesson. “Why are you walking so fast?” “Lu Yiming, are you annoying?” The person Su Rongrong least wanted to see was undoubtedly Lu Yiming. How can this guy be so shameless? Su Rongrong admired Lu Yiming’s shamelessness. “I just helped you out.” “No, don’t follow me, Lu Yiming, the matter between us has not been resolved yet.” “Miss Su is ready to go to war? Just because of a trumped up charge?” Su Rongrong stopped instantly when she heard this. I was about to turn around and glare at him. result… Lu Yiming, who was following behind him, failed to brake in time and the two of them collided head on. From a third party’s perspective, this is definitely a romantic scene. Under the cherry tree, the hero and heroine embraced each other affectionately, expressing their reluctance to part. It is definitely the most classic scene of graduation season. Besides, the protagonists of these two parties are the school beauty Su Rongrong and the notorious Lu Yiming. Although Lu Yiming has a bad reputation, no one can question Lu Yiming’s handsomeness. The looks of these two are so good that you can definitely lick the screen. However, such a romantic scene almost made Su Rongrong explode with anger. “Lu Yiming!” This was too reckless, they collided head on. It’s like throwing yourself into someone’s arms. “You were the one who braked suddenly.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… So, it’s still my fault? Shameless man! “Lu Yiming, for everything you’ve done to me, I will definitely… definitely…” He gritted his teeth, and all the self cultivation he had developed since childhood disappeared in front of Lu Yiming. “That was really a misunderstanding. I said I would give you an explanation.” “Before that, please stay away from me.” If Lu Yiming hadn’t accidentally saved her grandfather, Su Rongrong might have already started her revenge. “I’ll take you to the hospital.” “No need.” “You can’t get a taxi at this time.” Originally, Su Rongrong had left enough time. Unfortunately, the rhythm was disrupted by Hu Wei’s sudden confession. The check up was scheduled for 10 a.m., and looking at the time, I’m afraid I’ll be late. “I’ll take you there. Don’t worry. I wouldn’t dare do anything to you.” Lu Yiming had a sincere expression on his face. What an innocent face. Su Rongrong wished she could give this innocent face another unforgettable slap in the face. What won’t you do to yourself? I’ve already put myself to bed! How dare you, Lu Yiming, pretend to be innocent in front of me? Even now, the image of Lu Yiming holding her lace would appear in Su Rongrong’s mind without any warning. Vulgar, shameless, pervert, and pervert. Su Rongrong mercilessly complained about all the adjectives that could be used. “Miss Su, time, please check the time.” “Where’s the car?” “At the school gate.” Turning around, the proud Su Rongrong stopped talking, but tacitly agreed to Lu Yiming’s request to send her off. I have to say, the proud Su Rongrong at this moment is really cute. Why didn’t I notice it in my previous life? It turns out that the goddess looks so beautiful when she gets angry. I don’t know if Su Rongrong will completely go crazy after knowing Lu Yiming’s inner thoughts. This Lu Yiming was like his nemesis, provoking his anger from time to time. Lu Yiming started his Ferrari parked at the school gate and drove away from Magic City University with Su Rongrong. This scene was also seen by countless classmates. Soon, gossip about Su Rongrong and Lu Yiming spread rapidly around the campus. Ultimately, Su couldn’t resist the temptation of money. I would rather cry in a Ferrari than laugh on the back of a bicycle. Hu Wei threw away the roses he had carefully prepared, and his back looked desolate. Chapter 21: I call you Grandpa, you don’t mind, do you? “What’s this?” “Nutrients.” “I know it’s a nutritional supplement, what do you mean?” You can just take yourself to the hospital. But Su Rongrong didn’t expect that Lu Yiming actually got out of the car openly. That’s fine, but I just want to ask, what’s the meaning of taking out so many nutritional supplements from the trunk? “The Sun God Oral Liquid has a good regulating effect on the human nervous system, immune system, digestive system, and circulatory system.” “There is also Red Heart K oral liquid, which contains porphyrin iron, a nutrient that can treat iron deficiency anemia.” “By the way, this American ginseng is also good.” Su Rongrong: Am I asking you about the efficacy of these health products? “Lu Yiming, I’m here to accompany grandpa for a checkup.” “I know. I’m here to see the patient, too. After all, I was the one who brought him to the hospital. It’s reasonable for me to show some concern.” “put…” Well, he almost made the school beauty Su speak out loudly. It must be said that Lu Yiming’s skill in making people angry is absolutely first rate. “I’ll take care of my patients, and you take care of your grandfather. Let’s not interfere with each other.” What you said makes sense, but you are talking about the same person! “Lu Yiming, what do you want to do?” “Give a gift.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Su Rongrong’s grandfather was also a leading cadre before he retired. Although he only retired at the department or bureau level, he was a clean and upright person. In Su Rongrong’s opinion, how could he accept Lu Yiming’s gift? Especially Lu Yiming’s intentions are not pure. Besides, the matter between the two of them had not yet come to a conclusion, and the shamelessness of this shameless man once again refreshed Su Rongrong’s cognition. A shameless person is invincible. “By the way, I asked a friend to find a cardiovascular specialist yesterday. I’ve already contacted him and he’s available. How about arranging it for the afternoon?” “Lu Yiming, I will take care of my grandfather’s affairs.” Are you kidding? Hire an expert? Can’t the Su family hire one? The Su family is a prominent family after all, so they do have some connections. “This is the Magic City. The Su family can’t get in.” “you…” Lu Yiming was right again. The Su family’s roots were not in the Magic City, so they still needed help. Of course, it would only take a little time. The end result is still the same. Su Rongrong didn’t expect that Lu Yiming actually thought of something ahead of her. “Okay, time is almost up, don’t keep your grandpa waiting.” Lu Yiming walked in front of Su Rongrong, carrying a gift. It seemed that Su Rongrong had no better way to deal with such rogue behavior. At that moment, I could only stamp my feet in anger. “Rogue, despicable, shameless, villain!” She kept mumbling to herself, which was in stark contrast to her image as a school beauty. “Lu Yiming, I warn you, don’t talk nonsense when you go in!” At the door of the ward, Su Rongrong stood in front of Lu Yiming with a serious face. This is the most severe warning. If it were in his previous life, Lu Yiming would probably have been scared by Su Rongrong. After all, he was the one who wronged Su Rongrong first. Besides, the Lu Group was unable to face the Su family’s crazy revenge at that time. But the situation now is completely different. By some strange coincidence, he was also the lifesaver of Su Rongrong’s grandfather. Just for this reason, Su Rongrong couldn’t bring herself to kill him. “Don’t worry, I understand.” “What do you know?” Su Rongrong herself didn’t express her meaning clearly, and you, Lu Yiming, understood it? As a result, Lu Yiming took advantage of Su Rongrong’s distraction and pushed open the door. “Grandpa, I’m here to see you.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… The word “grandpa” was called so naturally that it once again refreshed Su Rongrong’s perception of Lu Yiming’s shamelessness. With the financial resources of the Su family, it is not difficult to set up a ward for high ranking cadres. Besides, Su Rongrong’s grandfather is a retired department level cadre after all. However, at this moment, my grandfather looked confused. Grandpa? How come I don’t know that I have a grandson whom I haven’t seen for more than 20 years? Lu Yiming: Well, if I say it was a slip of the tongue, will Su Rongrong believe me? “Who are you?” Su Rongrong’s grandfather looked at Lu Yiming in front of him with a puzzled look. The young man looked fair and clean, but unfortunately he was a little confused at such a young age that even the elders in the family could see his mistake. “Get out of the way.” Su Rongrong felt like she was about to explode. “Rongrong?” “Grandpa.” “Who is this?” “My classmate, not too familiar with him.” This introduction is really thoughtful. A classmate, not very familiar with me, so he came to see me with gifts? Do you really think grandpa is old and confused? Besides, grandpa knows his granddaughter very well. She is very proud and arrogant. Ordinary people would never be in her eyes. The young man in front of me is an exception. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What was she thinking? Not to mention that she fell in love with Lu Yiming, she even wanted to beat him up. The problem is that the tricks used against ordinary people are completely useless when used on Lu Yiming. Lu Yiming’s behavior just now was like a dog skin plaster, which could not be driven away. This was the first time that he had encountered such a shameless person. Looking at Lu Yiming at this time, he had a respectful expression on his face. He is completely different from his usual dandy appearance. You are really good at pretending. Su Rongrong complained again in her heart. “Well, I’m sorry, it just comes out of my mouth.” As long as you are not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed. Lu Yiming has fully developed this potential. After putting down the gift, I immediately started to care about my grandfather’s health. This attitude of caring and concern stunned Su Rongrong who was standing aside. Even I, her own granddaughter, cannot be so caring. “Young man, wait a minute, sit down first.” Grandpa was also a shrewd man. He saw through Lu Yiming’s purpose at a glance. He just wanted to take advantage of his precious granddaughter. Hey, I have to see for myself what this young man has accomplished. “I heard from Su Rongrong that grandpa was diagnosed with heart problems. It just so happens that an elder in my family knows an expert in this field.” Grandpa: Hmm? Showing off your connections in front of me? Are we being too eager for quick success? After all, they are young people and not stable enough. Although Su Rongrong’s grandfather remained calm on the surface, he had already started to think about it in his mind. No matter what this young man is like, after all, he is the first person of the opposite age that my precious granddaughter has brought to me, so I must keep a close eye on him. Well, I wonder if Su Rongrong would be amused or sad when she knew about her grandfather’s weird idea. Brought it yourself? It’s obvious that I can’t get rid of it. “No hurry, how old is the boy?” “Like Su Rongrong, I’m graduating this year.” “Oh? A local?” “yes.” “Have you found a job?” I forgot to mention that Su Rongrong’s grandfather retired from the Procuratorate. This question and answer was somewhat like the trial of a criminal. As for Su Rongrong, she was completely dumbfounded. Why were they asking these questions? Shouldn’t you help yourself drive those people away? Chapter 22 I am redundant Just as Su Rongrong’s grandfather was “interrogating” Lu Yiming, the doctor on duty came in to check on the ward. What a coincidence, it turned out to be an old acquaintance. When Lu Yiming was sent to the hospital, it was this person who performed the first aid. “Hey, it’s you, Director Liang, do you know each other?” The doctor was also confused. Wasn’t it supposed to be a good thing? Why were they chatting about it? “What?” Grandpa was also confused when asked. “Old man, it was this young man who brought you to the hospital. It’s a blessing in disguise. If you were a step behind, you would have been helpless.” “Is it him?” Mr. Liang never imagined that the savior he had been inquiring about was actually the young man in front of him. “Why didn’t you tell me?” “Grandpa, I’m here to help the weak. Uh, no, I mean, this is what I should do.” “Rongrong, why didn’t you tell me?” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Do I have a chance to speak? You two are asking and answering, and I can’t get a word in at all. “Young man, I’m so sorry for what happened just now. By the way, you are Rongrong’s classmate. What a coincidence.” “Yeah, I didn’t expect that either.” Lu Yiming didn’t dare to take credit for it. “Don’t talk for now, I’ll do an examination later.” The doctor came forward and examined the old man, and his condition was temporarily stabilized. However, the old man’s heart is always a problem. Next time he has an attack, I’m afraid he won’t be so lucky. “First, do an angiography of the area that was just blocked.” Myocardial infarction has always been the most dangerous thing. Indicators of myocardial infarction have already appeared in the blood and must be taken seriously. Su Rongrong also asked about her grandfather’s condition, and the answer she got was not optimistic. “Wait a minute, I have invited a specialist to participate in the treatment.” “expert?” The doctor’s face suddenly turned a little ugly. Doesn’t this clearly mean that he doesn’t believe in the hospital’s ability? But because the old man is a retired cadre, he can’t say it directly. “In fact, if you have a heart attack, the treatment methods are similar.” “Professor Ai is an expert in heart diseases, so he should be able to help.” “Professor Ai, which Professor Ai?” “Professor Ai from Xinhua Hospital.” “Hiss…, are you talking about Academician Ai?” This scared the doctor a lot. What kind of person is Academician Ai? He is an authority in the field of cardiology in China. Even the directors of cardiology in most of the top three hospitals in Shanghai are students of Academician Ai. Academician Ai’s position in the field of cardiology is unparalleled. But I heard that Academician Ai had completed his mission and retired to the mountains. I didn’t expect that this person could actually invite Academician Ai to come out of the mountains. This… “If it’s Academician Ai, then there’s no problem. When will Academician Ai come?” “I’ll be there in a minute.” The meeting was originally scheduled for the morning, and considering the time, it’s almost time. “Great, please wait a moment. I’ll call our director over. He is a student of Academician Ai.” The doctor looked excited and hurriedly left the ward. “This…Xiao Lu, how can I trouble you?” The little guy who had just been interrogated for a long time turned out to be his savior, and he also helped him invite the leading figure in domestic cardiology. This favor is no small matter. “Of course I should. I happen to have an acquaintance there.” “Xiao Lu, come and sit down quickly.” Mr. Liang had a smiling face, and the more he looked at Lu Yiming, the more satisfied he became. The change before and after is really huge. Su Rongrong was confused. Why did she feel like she was redundant? “Grandpa, stop chatting. I have to check it out later. Besides, Lu Yiming has something else to do. Otherwise…” “Xiao Lu, do you have anything else to do? What a pity, maybe we can do it next time…” Young people, unlike me, have plenty of time after retirement. “It’s not really an important thing.” “Let’s talk for a while then?” “Okay, I also want to hear about grandpa’s glorious deeds back then.” “Haha, what glorious deeds? They are just some trivial things from the past.” this… Chatting again? Su Rongrong was completely dumbfounded. Grandpa, where is your aloofness? Aren’t you usually so serious? Why did you change so much? I can only say that Lu Yiming is really good at coaxing old people. Every word touched Mr. Liang’s heart. Recalling the glorious years, when people get old, the thing they can’t forget the most is their past glory. At this moment, when Mr. Liang talked about his excitement, his face was filled with excitement. Su Rongrong really couldn’t bear to interrupt him because of his beaming joy. Forget it, I’ll just consider it as an opportunity to keep the old man company and relieve his boredom. Su Rongrong simply shut up. By the way, I started peeling apples for my grandfather. “Yes, thank you.” But the peeled apple was snatched away by Lu Yiming in the blink of an eye. “Lu Yiming, that’s too much!” “What?” Looking at Lu Yiming pretending to be innocent, Su Rongrong was so angry that her teeth were itching. Did I peel this apple for you? “If you want to eat, make it yourself!” “Rongrong, why are you talking like that? It’s just an apple.” This, grandpa actually spoke for Lu Yiming? Is this an Apple thing? This bastard almost raped himself before! But Su Rongrong couldn’t say this at all. What if she made her grandfather angry again? “Xiao Lu, where were we just now?” “It’s an economic case that was supervised by the central government.” “Yes, it’s that case. Thinking about it now, it feels troublesome. The other party was obviously well prepared…” “It’s really flawless, but there are still loopholes.” “Oh? You figured it out?” “Details often determine success or failure.” “Haha, well said, you are quite talented in this area.” The two of them became more and more excited as they talked. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… How about going by yourself? The key point is that Su Rongrong couldn’t get a word in at all. Su Rongrong is not interested in the public security, procuratorial and judicial departments. But I didn’t expect that Lu Yiming, this playboy, knew so much. Lu Yiming: Haha, what a coincidence! In my previous life, I racked my brains to evade legal sanctions. I didn’t expect that they would come in handy now. Half an hour later, Academician Ai arrived at the hospital and the old man’s examination officially began. “Don’t worry, grandpa looks in good spirits, so it shouldn’t be a big problem.” “It’s my grandpa, Lu Yiming, can you please have some shame?” “You didn’t introduce me, so I can only follow your instructions.” Well, Lu Yiming is feeling wronged. Nemesis, this guy is simply his nemesis. In her previous life, Su Rongrong hated Lu Yiming so much that she was naturally ruthless towards him. But now it’s different, the two sides are becoming more and more deeply involved. Under such circumstances, Su Rongrong couldn’t bear to be cruel to Lu Yiming. This also led to the fact that in the confrontation between the two, Lu Yiming, who did not care about his appearance, had the upper hand. It’s true that things in this world are unpredictable and everything changes. You know, Su Rongrong would fall for this. In my previous life, I would never have done that… Chapter 23 Get out of the way, I’m going to pretend Lu Yiming’s mouth seemed to be blessed, and Mr. Liang’s heart was much better than expected. Although a heart attack did occur, it was not to the point where surgery was necessary. This time, it happened completely suddenly. In the final analysis, it was all because of fear. Besides, if you can avoid installing a stent, you’d better be patient. It’s not that imported stents are expensive, the most important thing is that there is only one chance. Besides, medical technology is constantly developing, and perhaps the materials and service life will be further improved in the future. The degree of blockage of blood vessels is only 55 percent. In common patients, it is not a big problem. When Academician Ai came out, he looked relaxed. I originally thought it was a huge problem, but when I arrived at the scene, I found out that it was just an ordinary patient. There’s really no need to do it myself. Saying goodbye is a waste of a favor. However, after seeing the look Lu Yiming gave Su Rongrong. Academician Ai seemed to understand everything again. “Academician Ai, I’m so sorry to ask you to come all the way here.” “Okay, it’s also Xiaoqian’s fault for not explaining it clearly.” Academician Ai waved his hand. It was a rare opportunity for his niece to ask him for help, so naturally he would do his best. It’s a pity that the young man in front of him seems to have no destiny with his niece. Xiaoqian is naturally Sister Qian who runs a bar. Lu Yiming didn’t just go there to drink last time. This is called “no one comes to the temple for no reason.” “What a pity.” “pity?” It’s so scary to scare someone, especially when the disease has just been detected. “I don’t mean the patients.” It almost caused misunderstanding, but fortunately Academician Ai explained it. The final conclusion is that as long as Mr. Liang can take his medicine on time, there will be no major problem. Back in the ward, Mr. Liang looked surprised. “I have encountered extremely vicious criminals when I was investigating cases. This minor illness is nothing.” After learning that he was fine, Mr. Liang became completely confident. He began to tell his glorious story again. “Grandpa, it wasn’t like this before you checked just now.” If I remember correctly, my grandfather’s face was pale and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly before he was pushed into the examination room. He doesn’t look like the heroic figure he has now. “Nonsense, Xiao Lu, prove to me, was I really that bad just now?” “this…” Lu Yiming said that this was an easy question and it would be better for him to pretend to be deaf and dumb. But one thing is certain, Mr. Liang has a very good impression of Lu Yiming. “Okay, have a good rest. My mother will be back tomorrow.” Upon learning that the old man was ill, Mother Su, who was studying abroad, became extremely anxious. I bought the fastest flight back to Shanghai as soon as possible. Su Rongrong also informed her mother of the examination results as soon as possible to avoid her worrying. “Are you guys leaving?” It’s not dark yet. The older people get, the more they fear loneliness. Although this high ranking cadre ward is quiet, the longer you lie in it, the more lonely you will feel. “Grandpa, I have something else to do.” Su Rongrong really didn’t dare to leave Lu Yiming behind. God knows what kind of unbearable dark history my grandfather would tell once he gets interested. Before this, if I hadn’t stopped him, my grandfather would have started telling stories about his childhood. This really doesn’t treat Lu Yiming as an outsider. In Su Rongrong’s opinion, this guy must have said it on purpose. It seems that everything he said was intentionally guiding the content and rhythm of the conversation. He is a retired cadre of the Procuratorate, and he is being led by the nose. Su Rongrong is suspicious, wondering if the glorious history her grandfather talked about is just exaggeration. Of course, we can’t entirely blame grandpa for not being cautious enough. It’s just that Lu Yiming is too cunning. “Okay, Grandpa, I’ll come see you next time.” “Need not!” Before Lu Yiming could finish his words, he was stopped by Su Rongrong. Coming again? What on earth do you want to do, Lu Yiming? At an angle that Mr. Liang couldn’t see, Su Rongrong glared at Lu Yiming. Su Rongrong: That’s too much! Lu Yiming: I was just keeping my grandfather company to entertain him. Su Rongrong: This is your grandpa, and has nothing to do with you! Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… The eye contact between the two people said a lot. “What are you doing?” flirt? Could it be that his precious granddaughter is really interested in Xiao Lu? It’s not that it’s not possible, this little Lu is really good. “It’s okay, grandpa, you should have a good rest.” “Hey… let’s go, by the way, did you bring the chess manual I asked you to bring?” Another hobby of Mr. Liang is playing chess. Whether it is chess or Go, they are both Mr. Liang’s favorites. Of course, Mr. Liang’s chess level is really questionable. To put it bluntly, he is a terrible chess player who is both incompetent and pretentious. His Go skills are pretty good, and Mr. Liang himself has always boasted that he is the best in the world. When you get old, this is the only hobby you have. “Grandpa still likes playing chess?” “Of course, I’m not exaggerating. I can’t find any rivals in my field.” When it comes to playing chess, the old man immediately becomes full of energy. This time I went out because I couldn’t find any opponents in the community, so I wanted to try my luck in the chess club. Unexpectedly, I was possessed by bad luck and had a car accident on the way. Fortunately, Lu Yiming happened to pass by and saved his life. “So amazing?” “Young man, there are many things to pay attention to when playing chess, especially Go. Well, forget it. If I tell you too much, you young people may not understand.” Old Master Liang smacked his lips. Nowadays, there are too few young people who can calm down. “I quite like it.” “Oh, you also like playing chess?” This time, the old man was completely excited. I’ve been stuck in the ward for a while, and I’m really feeling suffocated. My hands have been itching for a long time. “How about we play a game of hands?” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What’s going on? Didn’t we agree to leave? Why are we talking about chess again? “Don’t worry, Xiao Lu. I won’t bully you. I’ll give you some guidance on how to play chess.” “No, Grandpa, we…” “It’s still early, bring me my chessboard.” Once grandpa gets stubborn, Su Rongrong has no way to deal with him. He glared at Lu Yiming fiercely. This guy would never stop, would he? But think about it. What does a playboy like Lu Yiming know about playing chess? I am very familiar with my grandfather’s level. Punching the Nanshan Nursing Home and kicking the Beihai Kindergarten. In Su Rongrong’s opinion, Lu Yiming was completely catering to her needs. This is a good thing, it allows grandpa to see Lu Yiming’s true face. After learning that Lu Yiming was nothing but a useless person, my grandfather’s favorable impression of Lu Yiming would probably decline. This also solved a lot of my troubles. “Okay, let’s play the next one.” One plate, one plate is enough. Just one plate can tell how much Lu Yiming weighs. Su Rongrong sneered, this guy is really looking for death. That year, the two of them set up the chessboard. “Tell me, how many sons should I give you?” “How about you play black first, Grandpa?” “Hey, Toad yawns so loudly.” Unexpectedly, the young man installed it in front of him. He wanted to give up a piece, but he let him play black. Well, we still need to educate them properly. Thinking of this, Mr. Liang did not hesitate and made the move directly with black pieces. Chapter 24 Is the circle of playboys so complicated? Products produced by the system must be high quality. Lu Yiming said that he originally knew nothing about Go, but after mastering the game, he could challenge professional players. As for Mr. Liang, he made the common mistake of the strong and looked down on Lu Yiming. Never underestimate your opponent at any time. This was the conclusion Lu Yiming came to in his previous life. Mr. Liang, who was playing with black pieces, chose small eyes with Black 1 and Black 3, and then used Black 5 to make a small flying move to guard the corner. He really thinks of himself as a professional chess player, and he starts the game with a domineering attitude. This was intended to give Lu Yiming a warning. If Lu Yiming was a half baked person, he would probably be scared by Mr. Liang. “Black 9 and Black 11 are breaking up the edges. Grandpa, are you really treating this as a guide?” “Stop talking nonsense, breaking the situation is the real skill.” Mr. Liang seemed like a different person when playing chess. Decisive to kill. My chess skills are really not exaggerated. As for Su Rongrong, she was watching the game with peace of mind, even though she had no knowledge of Go. However, I believe that with my grandfather’s strength, he can easily crush Lu Yiming. Once the impression is bad, it will be difficult to change. Should! Let you show off. All day long today, Su Rongrong was suppressed by Lu Yiming in every way and was almost having a cerebral hemorrhage due to anger. Now I just hope that grandpa can kill everyone and make Lu Yiming suffer a heavy defeat. At the beginning, Mr. Liang still had a relaxed expression on his face. Young people are not that capable; they are still being led by their own noses. I even tried it out on purpose and exposed a flaw, but it wasn’t discovered. It is almost certain that Lu Yiming’s level is about the same as that of the old man in the park. I guess after taking a few days of Go lessons, I thought I was an expert. It is best to deal with such an opponent. Mr. Liang didn’t hesitate and launched an attack directly. However, 20 minutes later, Mr. Liang’s expression became completely solemn. this… Why does it feel like every step I take is expected by the other party? No, this kid is so powerful? The seemingly random moves of the white pieces just now actually played an unexpected role in the game. Mingming used the small tip, which is the most commonly used common sense method in Go. But I make myself so sad. “Did you do this on purpose?” “What?” “It’s okay, continue.” Old Master Liang still couldn’t believe it. He thought he couldn’t be defeated by a young man? Wouldn’t it be a waste of my more than 30 years of chess experience? Another ten minutes passed, and Mr. Liang, holding the black piece, was completely dumbfounded. Where to go? There are traps everywhere. this… Mr. Liang fell into long thought. I didn’t dare to make a move for a long time. At this time, Su Rongrong was already stunned. It’s not like I had accompanied my grandfather to play chess before, and wherever we went, we were invincible. Even when meeting professional chess players, my grandfather would always be able to get along well with them, and the win loss ratio was usually 50 50. But today, it has only been a short while and Lu Yiming has forced me into a long period of thought? Is this too exaggerated? Is this still the dandy boy in my subconscious? Since when did all the playboys start to be so unrestrained? “What are you thinking about?” Unlike Mr. Liang who was thinking for a long time, Lu Yiming at this moment still had the leisure to observe Su Rongrong’s surprised expression. You know what, it really has a unique flavor. “You really know how to play chess?” “Isn’t this obvious?” Yes, what Lu Yiming said was right. He has pushed his grandfather to this point. He is not a novice at all, but a monster. I actually asked such a stupid question. “Ahem, no, that step doesn’t count.” What happened to the promise of no regrets in making a move? Looking at her grandfather who was playing tricks on her, Su Rongrong was speechless. “Regret your move?” “What do you mean by regret? I didn’t notice it just now.” “OK.” Lu Yiming is very generous. He has almost grasped the strength of Mr. Liang and his level is indeed quite good. However, compared with the system, the gap is not small. Half an hour later. “This round doesn’t count. You played dumb and I was careless at the beginning.” The old man was very unconvinced after losing the chess game. I kept comforting myself in my heart that I underestimated the opponent at the beginning. If I had been serious from the beginning, I would never have lost so badly. “Come again!” The old man vowed to take revenge. I must beat this kid no matter what today, otherwise where will I put my old face? Mr. Liang was serious and was cautious enough from the first step. This means treating Lu Yiming as a real opponent. only… Half an hour later. It’s so miserable. Even Su Rongrong, who didn’t know much about Go, could see how miserable the black piece was. Although he was serious, he lost even faster. It’s not the same as the previous game. Every time my grandfather makes a move, he needs to think for a long time. But looking at Lu Yiming, he made his move right after that. What does this mean? This shows that every move in the chess game was within Lu Yiming’s expectations. The gap is so huge, it’s simply… “You kid…” Mr. Liang was completely convinced that his opponent’s chess skills were far superior to his own. “Can’t you give in a little?” If my grandfather gets angry enough to cause any harm, I will never let him go. “If I don’t try my best, grandpa will probably blame me.” Facing Su Rongrong, Lu Yiming still insisted on his principles. “That’s right. Let’s just play chess. Why give up? It’s not like I can’t afford to lose. You can do it, Xiao Lu. With your level, you can easily enter the professional league.” Such praise is the highest compliment. As for Su Rongrong, she rolled her eyes and decided to shut up. But the problem is that grandpa’s admiration for Lu Yiming cannot be concealed in his eyes no matter what. This result is completely different from what I imagined. “That’s enough, it’s getting dark, Grandpa, you should have a good rest, I’ll come to see you tomorrow!” No, I can’t go on like this. I’m afraid… Su Rongrong felt a little flustered. I don’t know what kind of magical power Lu Yiming has, but he was able to conquer his grandfather so quickly. “It’s getting late. Okay, let’s stop here today. Xiao Lu, leave me your phone number so we can have more discussions in the future.” For a chess lover, it is absolutely lucky to meet such a good opponent. “Need not.” “Hmm? Girl, what’s wrong with you today? You look weird.” He has stopped me time and again, could it be that he is really interested in Xiao Lu? Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What an interesting big headed ghost! Lu Yiming did this on purpose. Every step today seemed to have been planned. “Grandpa, that’s not what I meant. He is my classmate. If you want to meet him in the future, I can contact him.” As for whether you can get in touch with him or not, it’s up to you. No, I must not give Lu Yiming a chance. This guy’s ability to climb along the pole is simply amazing. Su Rongrong said that she must guard against it strictly. As for Lu Yiming’s words, haha, too much is as bad as too little. I have already left a good impression today, so there is no need to worry that the old man will not take the bait. At that moment, Lu Yiming also stood up respectfully and said goodbye. Chapter 25: Fate’s Joke “Then I’ll go first?” “Goodbye.” She had no regrets and just wished Lu Yiming would disappear immediately. Fortunately, the attitudes were not as life and death as at the beginning. For Lu Yiming, today was a fruitful day. It’s a pity that you can forget about staying for a midnight snack or something. Lu Yiming curled his lips. After all, he had been with his grandfather for such a long time, but he didn’t even give him food. Playing chess is the best way to kill time. Touching his belly, Lu Yiming looked helpless. “How about letting Rongrong go eat something with you?” Even my grandfather couldn’t stand it anymore. This child is fine, except for the one who looks aggrieved. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I didn’t expect Lu Yiming to have this trick. It only took a short time for him to coax my grandfather into this state? How could this continue? Get lost! “He’s not hungry.” “I’m hungry.” “You’re not hungry!” Su Rongrong’s eyes were full of threats. “I’m not really hungry.” Well, it seems like Su Rongrong is about to lose her temper. In this situation, it’s better to provoke her. “Send Yiming off?” “He has legs himself.” The main theme is impatience. Seeing that Su Rongrong had no intention of getting up to see him off, Lu Yiming had no choice but to leave the ward alone. “We are your classmates after all, so we should be united.” “He’s thick skinned.” “Hey…” Grandpa also laughed at Su Rongrong’s explanation. As a person who has experienced this, how could my grandfather not know what Lu Yiming was thinking? But to be honest, the young man is really good. His conversation and knowledge are first class, and he doesn’t seem to be from a poor family. “You’re a nice guy. Come often and play chess with me.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Do you often play chess? Just forgive yourself. If my grandfather knew what dirty things Lu Yiming had done to him, he would probably kill Lu Yiming even with an IV drip. However, Su Rongrong did not expect that Lu Yiming, a dandy boy, could be so “elegant”. No, he must have learned this to make girls happy. Su Rongrong shook her head, temporarily driving everything about Lu Yiming out of her mind. “Grandpa, you should have a good rest. The doctor just said that a combination of work and rest is beneficial to the recovery of the heart.” “Okay, I’ll listen to you.” When people get old, they always have a stubborn temper, which means they will listen to Su Rongrong’s words. “You’re not leaving yet?” “Stay with grandpa for a while longer.” If we leave now, what if Lu Yiming hasn’t gone far? Su Rongrong doesn’t want to have another ‘chance encounter’. As for Lu Yiming at this time, he had already taken the elevator to the first floor. The high ranking cadres’ ward has its own exclusive elevator. Even if the tertiary hospital is extremely busy, this elevator will never be occupied. Sometimes I think it’s such a waste of resources, but that’s the way the market is. No matter where you are, there is still the shadow of class. The slogan of equality for all has been shouted for a long time. It’s just moving some things that are in the open into the dark. The other elevators were packed with patients and their families. But the special elevator for the high ranking cadres’ ward only has Lu Yiming. There are too many injustices in the world. Even if you see them, you should not speak out. Otherwise, you will probably become the target of public criticism. Wasn’t I the same in my previous life? “Sir, we’re on the first floor.” “Thanks.” Lu Yiming took a deep breath and walked out of the elevator. Overall, today went well, maybe a good start. You know, it was more than ten years later that I met Su Rongrong again in my previous life. But even if the Lu family received the corresponding punishment, the look in Su Rongrong’s eyes when she looked at him was still full of resentment. Yes, I have ruined Su Rongrong’s life. Ruin her innocence and become idle material for discussion behind her back. The princess of the Su family should have been high and mighty, but because of herself… That look of hatred will probably never change in a lifetime. Compared with the previous life, things are much better now. “Doctor, please, I will find a way. Please don’t stop the treatment, okay? Please, I will definitely raise the money as soon as possible.” Just as Lu Yiming was passing by the hospital outpatient hall, he heard an extremely familiar voice. Her again? Cheng Xiao. This voice was very familiar to Lu Yiming. Why is Cheng Xiao in the hospital? Raise money? What money? At this time in the previous life, Lu Yiming and Cheng Xiao were not yet familiar with each other. Although I know that there is a civilian campus beauty in Shanghai University who is as famous as Su Rongrong. However, Lu Yiming in his previous life had no interest in Cheng Xiao at this time. Not to mention that his mind is on Su Rongrong. No matter how beautiful Cheng Xiao is, there is no possibility between her and Lu Yiming. Even though the Lu Group was called a “nouveau riche” by the aristocratic families, it was at least rich. The emphasis is also on matching the family background. An ordinary girl like Cheng Xiao cannot even enter the Lu family. It’s okay to have fun, but forget about investing your feelings. Even with all that happened afterwards, for Lu Yiming, it was more of a debt to Cheng Xiao. In this life, even if he met Cheng Xiao, Lu Yiming would try not to provoke her to avoid repeating the same mistake. But who could have thought that God was playing a joke on them. The more you want to keep your distance, the more Cheng Xiao will appear in your life. Just like at this moment, Cheng Xiao had a pleading expression on her face. Pull the doctor in the white coat in front of him. The other person’s expression showed obvious impatience. It seems that the explanation has taken long enough. “Director Zhang, if you give me a few days’ grace, I will be able to pay you your salary right away.” It’s not that Cheng Xiao hasn’t thought of a solution, but every place has its own rules. It is the most that a bar can do for itself. Besides, she had made mistakes and offended customers before, so Cheng Xiao really couldn’t speak up. As for temporary work during the day, it is calculated by the hour. But this money is not enough to pay for the high cost of treatment. Even if I give everything I have, I’m afraid… “You know, hospitals have their own rules. We have already made an exception and given you half a month’s grace period. The higher ups have also said that the medical expenses must be settled. Please don’t make things difficult for me.” Director Zhang was not moved by Cheng Xiao’s pleading. Doctors encounter many difficult patients every year. Even if you can consider the patients at the beginning, you will become hard hearted over time. I have seen so many things like birth, aging, sickness and death in the hospital that I have become numb to them. “If it doesn’t work, go ask your leader for mercy. You should know the place.” Director Zhang sighed helplessly, pushed away Cheng Xiao’s hand that was pulling at his sleeve, and left without looking back. At this moment, Cheng Xiao had a sad face. No, if she doesn’t get medical treatment, her mother won’t even survive a week. My efforts all along… No, never allow this to happen. Director Zhang just said, go to the finance office, yes, maybe there will be a turnaround, but, but… Cheng Xiao’s expression changed again and again, but she finally mustered up the courage and headed towards the finance office. Chapter 26 Being too beautiful is not necessarily a good thing Looking at Cheng Xiao’s back as she left, I had to admit that Cheng Xiao was indeed the most determined woman I had ever met. It’s a pity that I was hurt too deeply by myself in my previous life. Lu Yiming shook his head and prepared to leave, but it seemed that he had missed some important information. What is it? Lu Yiming couldn’t remember it for a moment. Lu Yiming started the Ferrari and was about to shift into gear when he suddenly remembered… There was no time to turn off the engine. Lu Yiming had already opened the car door and ran towards the hospital building. At this time, in the hospital’s finance office. Cheng Xiao knocked on the door and found that only the section chief was in the finance office. Cheng Xiao has met with Section Chief Jin quite often in recent years. After all, her mother has to be hospitalized for a long time every year due to her illness. “Oh, it’s Cheng Xiao.” When Section Chief Jin saw Cheng Xiao, a smile immediately appeared on his originally serious face. However, this smile seems a bit vulgar no matter how you look at it. “Chief Jin, I’m so sorry to bother you so late.” “Look at you, what are you talking about? Come in quickly.” Section Chief Jin waved to Cheng Xiao, motioning for her to come in. “Section Chief Jin…” Cheng Xiao seemed to sense something. After entering the office, she just stood at the door and did not move forward. Instead, it was Section Chief Jin who stood up from his seat. “I know a little about your situation. Director Zhang has told me that your mother has owed the hospital half a month’s worth of treatment fees. Although I also want to help you, the hospital has just issued a new regulation.” Chief Jin said as he approached Cheng Xiao. “Chief Jin, I know I have caused trouble for the hospital, but I hope you can give me a few more days. My salary will be paid soon, and I will definitely be able to pay it back.” Cheng Xiao spoke urgently. To be honest, this was her last hope. Cheng Xiao felt a pang of pain in her heart when she thought about her mother being forced to terminate treatment. In this situation, Cheng Xiao completely ignored Section Chief Jin who was approaching her step by step. “Cheng Xiao, I know your family’s situation. To be honest, I never tried to get it. Special cases should be treated specially.” “Thank you so much, Chief Jin. Don’t worry, I will pay the overdue fees as soon as I get paid.” Cheng Xiao thought that the situation had turned around, but she never expected that Chief Jin would take advantage of this opportunity to slam the office door shut. “Chief Jin, what are you doing?” Cheng Xiao immediately realized something was wrong and distanced herself from Section Chief Jin. It’s a pity that it was a little too late to react at this time. “Cheng Xiao, I don’t have the final say over the hospital. Besides, I helped you so much, don’t you want to show some appreciation?” this… The lust in Section Chief Jin’s eyes could no longer be hidden. The first time I met Cheng Xiao was probably four years ago. At that time, Chief Jin had already started to have dirty thoughts in his heart, but there was no good opportunity to get close to Cheng Xiao. Besides, the hospital doesn’t have the final say. At that time, I was the deputy of the Finance Department, and I was under pressure from the section chief. Dirty thoughts can only be buried in the heart. Sometimes, he wanted to take advantage of her, but Cheng Xiao always resolved the situation cleverly. Last month, the section chief finally reached retirement age, and I finally got my wish and took the position of head of the Finance Department. The complacent Chief Jin soon set his sights on Cheng Xiao. In fact, the hospital has no mission to collect treatment fees. This is completely fabricated by Section Chief Jin. Why is self evident. And at this moment, Cheng Xiao finally came to the door. How could Chief Jin miss such a great opportunity? “Chief Jin, don’t worry, I will definitely make up the difference. If that doesn’t work, I’ll prepare something for you as a token of my appreciation.” “Cheng Xiao, I know your family situation, how can I accept your red envelope?” At this time, Cheng Xiao had nowhere to retreat and was about to hit the wall. And Section Chief Jin is still getting closer. At this moment, Cheng Xiao was completely panicked. Cheng Xiao has understood this since she was a child. I am beautiful. However, for a child from an ordinary family like me, being too beautiful is not necessarily a good thing. It was okay when I was a kid, boys always liked to be around me. But as I grew up, the eyes of the opposite sex looking at me were always full of possessiveness. Cheng Xiao has faced many temptations. The family’s conditions were poor and my mother suddenly fell seriously ill. Everything that happened so suddenly made Cheng Xiao breathless. At this time, there would always be people who wanted to help Cheng Xiao. However, these people all have strong purposes. In the final analysis, they are all greedy for their own beauty. Of course, if Cheng Xiao completely degenerates, she might be able to have enough food and clothing and enough money to treat her mother’s serious illness. But Cheng Xiao did not do that. Instead, she relied on her own efforts and every penny she earned was clean. But no matter how hard you try, you can never escape from people with ulterior motives. I have persisted for so long, am I really going to fail at the last moment? “Cheng Xiao, how long can you hold on? A woman should not work too hard at her best age. As long as you stay with me, you can rest assured about your mother’s illness. I will let the best doctors take care of it. Moreover, once a kidney source is available, I will give it to you as soon as possible.” Section Chief Jin continued to seduce. Having been pushed to this point, Section Chief Jin didn’t believe that Cheng Xiao could still resist. Soon, he would get what he wanted. Thinking of this, Section Chief Jin felt even more excited. Tsk tsk, this snow white skin, this youthful figure, they are all mine. “No…don’t!” Just one step away and I can hold Cheng Xiao in my arms. Just one step away from being able to have sex with her. Section Chief Jin has extended his evil hand. But no one expected that at the last moment, Cheng Xiao actually dodged it. “No, Chief Jin, I will definitely be able to make up the medical expenses in time.” “Pay it back? Why should the hospital let you owe money? The hospital is not a charity. Cheng Xiao, I’m giving you two choices. Either obey me, or get out of the hospital with your mother right now.” Section Chief Jin finally revealed his evil face. “Aren’t you afraid that I will report you?” “Report? You can try it and see whether I believe you or not! Don’t hesitate, little darling. I will definitely treat you well!” Section Chief Jin could no longer bear it and wanted to use force. At this time, Cheng Xiao was pressed against the desk with no way to retreat, and subconsciously grabbed a pair of scissors on the desk. Cheng Xiao closed her eyes and gave it her all to prove her innocence. But at this critical moment, the door of the office that Section Chief Jin had locked was suddenly and violently kicked open. The loud noise frightened Section Chief Jin so much that he shivered. Chapter 27 Heartbroken “Who are you?” “Fuck you!” Before Section Chief Jin could react, the huge fist was right in front of him. Even a fool can see the scene before us. With his anger rising, Lu Yiming went completely berserk. Although Lu Yiming did not exercise deliberately, he had the advantage of being young. A middle aged greasy man like Section Chief Jin who sat in the office all year round was naturally no match for him. After a few punches, he could only run away in fear. “What are you doing! Security, security!” Although the scandal was exposed, staying alive is the most important thing at the moment. At this moment, Cheng Xiao just stood there stupidly, not coming back to her senses for a long time. All this happened too suddenly, and Cheng Xiao was ready to fight to the death. I never thought that in the darkest moment of my life, a ray of light would really appear. It was him. It was also him who stood up last time in the bar. He is your classmate or your boss’s friend. That time at the bar, although Cheng Xiao was grateful to Lu Yiming, she did not deliberately approach him. Cheng Xiao knew clearly that being able to be friends with Sister Qian was a very high status and was not something she could ever hope for. If it were someone else, they might have ended up paying for it. But Cheng Xiao grasped the sense of proportion. Maybe… maybe the other party just can’t stand seeing women being bullied. Among these young masters, there are also those who have an overflowing sense of justice. Don’t think too much. But at this moment, when he was in despair, it was him again, falling from the sky. Saving himself from danger, is all this really a coincidence? Cheng Xiao didn’t dare to think too much, nor did she want to think too much. My life is a mess, so I don’t have time to think about these things. As for Lu Yiming, at the moment of starting the sports car, he suddenly remembered that at this time in his previous life, Cheng Xiao seemed to have disappeared from school for a while. Although I didn’t pay much attention to it at that time, Cheng Xiao was one of the campus beauties of Shanghai University after all. There are many rumors, and I have heard them myself. A week later, Cheng Xiao reappeared in the college, and he became even more taciturn. After the two of them were together, Lu Yiming once asked about this matter, but whenever he mentioned it, Cheng Xiao’s expression would always become unnatural. No matter how Lu Yiming pressed the issue, he always remained silent. In the end, it was only after Lu Yiming hired someone to conduct a secret investigation that he finally found out the truth. Cheng Xiao was almost raped by the bastard in front of her. In desperation, he stabbed the other person. This matter caused quite a stir. After the police arrived, this hypocritical bastard actually turned around and said that Cheng Xiao had come to seduce him in order to pay the medical fees she owed to the hospital. It’s ridiculous. With such an obvious logical error, they could find excuses to make up for it in every minute. In the end, the police believed Chief Jin. Cheng Xiaoxiao was detained for seven days. In the end, it was the school that stepped in, and with Section Chief Jin feeling guilty, Cheng Xiaoxiao was eventually released on bail. Although no crime was committed, the school still gave Cheng Xiao a disciplinary punishment of probation. As for Cheng Xiao’s mother, she was kicked out of the hospital, and not long after… When Lu Yiming learned the truth that year, he was furious. Although in his heart Cheng Xiao was just a substitute for Su Rongrong, she was still his woman after all. At that time, Section Chief Jin had been promoted to vice president, but Lu Yiming wanted to crush him to death, but he was just a slightly larger ant. Vice President Jin deserves the punishment he received, as many problems were found. Many women have been persecuted in the same way. It’s a pity that apart from Cheng Xiao, no one else is brave enough to stand up and testify. This may also be the sad part for women. Although I have encountered misfortune, I can only swallow the bitterness for the sake of my future life. Lu Yiming, who remembered all this, immediately opened the door and ran all the way. The moment the door was kicked open, Chief Jin rushed towards Cheng Xiao, and Cheng Xiao was holding a pair of scissors in her hand. Lu Yiming’s fists were like water drops, all falling on Chief Jin’s face. Beat the other person until he cried for his parents. As for security? I’m sorry, Chief Jin, you chose to take action at this time because there are fewer people at night and you can do whatever you want. So before the security arrived, Lu Yiming had enough time to teach the bastard in front of him a lesson. “Don’t… stop hitting me, I was wrong, I was wrong!” The punches hit Section Chief Jin on the head and face, leaving him unable to fight back. The other party showed no mercy at all. How did I provoke this evil star? I have been observing for a long time and I find that Cheng Xiao always keeps to herself. None of my relatives or friends have come to the hospital to see me, so it’s obvious that I have no support. Ten minutes later, Lu Yiming was gasping for breath, and Section Chief Jin was dying. After such a big commotion, the security guard finally arrived. In the process of forcibly breaking away from Lu Yiming, Lu Yiming, who was not satisfied, kicked Chief Jin’s lower body several times. The screams like slaughtering a pig resounded throughout the entire complex. “open.” Lu Yiming shook off the security guard who was pulling him. At this moment, Lu Yiming noticed Cheng Xiao leaning against the wall. It was still the same posture as before, the scissors in his hand had no direction, and were still held tightly in his hand. Even blood was oozing from Cheng Xiao’s palms. You can imagine how much effort it takes. At the same time, I can also understand how helpless Cheng Xiao is at this moment. I really don’t know how Cheng Xiao survived in her previous life. Not only was she almost defiled by the bastard, but she was even bitten back. What a huge injustice. I’m afraid not many people can bear it. Thinking of this, Lu Yiming glared fiercely at Section Chief Jin, who was lying on the ground wailing like a dead dog. “Let go, it’s okay, trust me.” Lu Yiming half knelt in front of Cheng Xiao, his tone more gentle than ever before. At this moment, Cheng Xiao must not be frightened at all. “Be obedient and let go. It’s safe now.” Lu Yiming tried to get Cheng Xiao to let go of the scissors, but she was holding it so tightly. The metal handle seemed to be deeply engraved in the flesh. This may be Cheng Xiao’s last resort. “It’s me. We’ve met before. We’re classmates. It’s really okay.” Lu Yiming didn’t dare to force Cheng Xiao’s hands open, for fear that she would become emotionally unstable, and even more afraid that Cheng Xiao would accidentally hurt herself. After some gentle persuasion, Cheng Xiao’s eyes finally focused. “It’s you.” “Yes, it’s me. Don’t worry, it’s okay. No one can hurt you while I’m here.” Lu Yiming breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Cheng Xiao finally responded. “Be obedient, let go and give me the scissors.” With Lu Yiming’s gentle persuasion, Cheng Xiao finally loosened her clenched hands, and Lu Yiming took the opportunity to take the scissors. Fortunately, I finally arrived in time in this life, otherwise… “Wow!” Cheng Xiao, who had been holding back for a long time, burst into tears. It’s as if he wanted to release all the pressure and grievances. She cried so heartbreakingly, showing how much injustice she had suffered. Chapter 28 The world is broken, someone has to mend it “Call the police.” The security guards were also at a loss when faced with such a scene. Section Chief Jin was beaten beyond recognition. Naturally, I didn’t dare to make a decision on my own and immediately called the police. Hearing that the other party was going to call the police, Cheng Xiao subconsciously grabbed the corner of Lu Yiming’s clothes, her eyes full of anxiety. Such performance made Lu Yiming feel uncomfortable. In the previous life, Cheng Xiao must have been so helpless. I am really worse than a beast. I have suffered so much injustice and injustice. I originally thought I had found true love in myself. But I didn’t expect that in my heart, I was just a substitute for others. I guess Cheng Xiao in her previous life was completely desperate about herself. “It’s okay. I’m here.” Lu Yiming also took out his phone. Yes, this matter cannot be allowed to pass like this. Lu Yiming directly called the dean and calmly recounted the entire situation. The dean on the other end of the phone couldn’t help but take a breath. What the hell, is Chief Jin crazy? Why did you have to offend this guy when you could offend anyone else? Lu Yiming’s reputation as a playboy is quite well known in the Magic City. Everyone knows that Mr. Lu of the Lu Group has a bad temper. The dean, who was already lying in bed, rushed to the hospital as quickly as possible to deal with the follow up matters. The second call Lu Yiming made was to Li Li, yes, it was Li Li. “Mr. Lu, do you know that disturbing a lady’s beauty sleep is quite rude?” Li Li frowned. To be honest, she really didn’t want to answer the call. After all, Lu Yiming had a bad reputation. Although Li Li’s opinion of Lu Yiming’s ability has changed after the national debt incident, her opinion of Lu Yiming’s character… “I need a lawyer.” “What?” “lawyer.” “Now?” “What do you think?” Li Li was confused and asked for a lawyer right away? Are you Doraemon? “Mr. Lu, if you need a lawyer, you can go to the company’s legal department. Or should I give you the number?” “Please arrange for him to arrive at Huashan Hospital within half an hour.” Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I am Mr. Lu’s special assistant, not your little Mr. Lu’s personal nanny, okay! Find yourself in everything? Besides, what trouble have you, Mr. Lu, gotten into again? “If I remember correctly, you’re about to cooperate with me.” “Mr. Lu, the matter has not been finalized yet. Mr. Lu just asked for my opinion. The decision is still in my hands.” “Just half an hour.” “I…” Domineering, so domineering! Without even giving himself a chance to refuse, Lu Yiming hung up the phone. “I don’t give a shit about your life or death!” Li Li complained a few words into the phone, but finally dialed the number of the head of the legal department. After explaining everything, Li Li lost all desire to sleep. “What have I done to myself? I owe you this.” Li Li, who was completely sleepless, had no choice but to put on her clothes and drive out. It’s obvious that he says one thing and means another, he doesn’t even realize it, he’s hard on the outside but soft on the inside. Half an hour later, all the people gathered together. As for Section Chief Jin, he had already been sent to the emergency room, which showed how severely Lu Yiming had attacked him. It is clear what happened, and the lawyers present gave corresponding advice. No matter what, hitting people is always wrong. Of course, any normal person with no moral problems would support Lu Yiming in using violence against this scumbag. But the attack was really too cruel. “What? Broken? Are you sure?” The corners of Li Li’s mouth twitched. The last few kicks were just too violent. As for what was broken, I guess even a fool can understand it. “Assistant Li, this might be a bit troublesome. The injury has reached the sentencing level.” “What are you talking about? Why did we ask you to come here? This is called self defense, don’t you understand? At the very least, this is called acting bravely for justice.” Lawyer: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Assistant Li, do you have any misunderstanding about the proper scope and being brave and righteous? No matter what, the lawyers are paid high salaries by the Lu Group to deal with these emergencies. Of course, their expertise is business disputes, not civil disputes. But at least as a lawyer, I can still scare people. “No matter how much money it costs, we have to win.” At first Li Li thought that it was Young Master Lu who was abusing his power again, but when she arrived at the scene she realized that this time, Young Master Lu represented justice. This Section Chief Jin is a scumbag. He actually used such means to force women. If it were me, I would not be able to keep her balls. “How about we reconcile? After all, the other party can’t stand the light either.” “Reconciliation? If you want to reconcile, what’s the point of you? Mr. Lu’s meaning is very clear. No matter how much money is spent, the other party must get what he deserves. If you can’t do it, go and explain to Mr. Lu yourself.” “I understand. We will definitely work hard.” This is a death order, and it must be accomplished no matter how difficult it is. Originally, since the opponent was so seriously injured, the public security agency had to detain Lu Yiming first. But after all, there are reasons for everything. Besides, the police officers handling the case are also human beings. As long as they are human beings, they will look down on Chief Jin’s behavior. The Lu family didn’t even need to ask for permission for this matter; the case officers directly granted bail pending trial. Lu Yiming can leave the hospital openly. As for Section Chief Jin, although this time he attempted to molest a woman but no one knows whether this scumbag has any precedent. Check, you must check. The dean promised in front of Lu Yiming that he would get to the bottom of the matter. I will never show mercy. Everyone could see that Young Master Lu was still angry at the moment, and no one dared to offend him. “Yes…I’m sorry.” Cheng Xiao didn’t expect that she would cause so much trouble to Lu Yiming. If Lu Yiming had not appeared in time, Cheng Xiao couldn’t imagine what would have happened to her. I am afraid… “Nothing, I owe you.” “What?” “fine.” “Your clothes.” Just now, Cheng Xiao was so scared that she pulled Lu Yiming’s clothes. At this moment, Lu Yiming’s clothes were stained with blood. It was not discovered until this moment. This dress must be very expensive. “It doesn’t matter.” “Lu Yiming, how about I help you wash it?” this… Cheng Xiao swore that she really had no extra thoughts, she just did it for… “No, take care of yourself.” “I…” Cheng Xiao didn’t know what to say anymore. She was afraid that she would never be able to repay the huge favor she had received today in her entire life. “Sister Lily, please take her back to school later.” “I?” Li Li pointed at herself, looking helpless. Did she owe you anything? It was becoming easier and easier to order her around. However, Young Master Lu, didn’t you do so much because of that other party? Wow, the girl is really pretty. As a woman, I can’t help but be attracted to her. Especially now that he looks so pitiful. Are you, Mr. Lu, really willing to give up such a good opportunity? “Why are you so nice to me?” Cheng Xiao couldn’t help asking this question before she left. Cheng Xiao was indeed grateful to Lu Yiming, but if she was asked to give herself to him just for this, Cheng Xiao simply couldn’t do it. “I would still help even if it was someone else. The world is already broken, and someone has to mend it.” Chapter 29 There is a kind of pain called broken eggs The world is in tatters, and someone has to mend it. This may be the most heartfelt reason Cheng Xiao has ever heard. However, it can make me feel a lot more at ease. These words seemed to touch Cheng Xiao’s heart. Why? Why is my life like this? In tatters. The Lu Yiming in front of him seemed to have some kind of magical power that could make him feel at ease. “Why haven’t you left yet?” Just when Li Li was about to send Cheng Xiao away. A voice sounded from behind. The cold voice showed that the person behind it must be a beauty. When I heard the sound, I wanted to take a glimpse of the true face of Mount Lu. Su Rongrong stayed with her grandfather until bedtime before preparing to go back to school. But I didn’t expect to meet Lu Yiming again at the hospital gate. Is this guy just a dog skin plaster? Waiting for me here on purpose? But when Su Rongrong saw the other person turning around in surprise, she was stunned. Cheng Xiao? Why was she in the hospital? For Su Rongrong, it was a very novel thing to be voted as the campus belle of Shanghai University together with herself. Having been accustomed to being the center of attention since childhood, it was quite a novelty for Su Rongrong when a girl who could stand on equal footing with her suddenly appeared. For this reason, Su Rongrong also paid special attention to Cheng Xiao. After meeting her in person, Su Rongrong had to admit that when she first met Cheng Xiao, she gave people a feeling of pity . It’s a pity that Cheng Xiao rarely shows up at school. I heard that because of her family background, Cheng Xiao has a heavy burden on her shoulders. However, at this moment, Cheng Xiao’s red eyes seemed to indicate… Su Rongrong: He is indeed a shameless scumbag. He was just trying to be nice to me. Then he turned around and bullied other girls. However, facing Su Rongrong’s scrutinizing gaze, Cheng Xiao lowered his head out of habit. It was as if he was avoiding Su Rongrong. this… Why does it give people the illusion of catching someone in adultery? Su Rongrong, Cheng Xiao naturally knew this one, a true gifted daughter of heaven. I have been compared to others all the time during my four years in college. It is impossible to say that I don’t know each other. The two had never spoken to each other, nor had they ever met at such close range. Su Rongrong is stunningly beautiful and radiant. Wherever Su Rongrong appears, she is the absolute focus. “I’m going back to school, wanna come with me?” Lu Yiming seemed to be fine and invited Su Rongrong to join him. “Lu Yiming, you are extremely shameless.” Su Rongrong was almost laughing out of anger, even though she didn’t know what had just happened. But she was already certain in her heart that the playboy must have been bullying Cheng Xiao just now. This is also consistent with Lu Yiming’s playboy personality. “I think I smell something sour.” Lu Yiming burst out laughing and even openly teased Su Rongrong. “Take back what I just said. You, Lu Yiming, are shameless.” Su Rongrong had a cold face. A playboy is a playboy. How does the saying go, a dog can’t change… Wait, this analogy doesn’t seem appropriate either. “Student Su Rongrong, I…” Cheng Xiao was about to explain. In Cheng Xiao’s opinion, these two are a perfect match, and she must not let any misunderstandings arise because of her. “Student Cheng, listen to my advice, stay away from him and protect yourself carefully.” “No, I just…” “You’re going back to school too?” “Um.” “That’s right, together.” this… The situation changed too quickly and Li Li said that she seemed to be unable to keep up with the pace. I originally wanted to see a good show. I thought it was a Shura field, but I didn’t expect that the two beauties left hand in hand. “Mr. Lu, don’t you plan to chase after him and explain?” “Explain what?” “Are you not afraid of misunderstanding?” “It would be nice if I was jealous.” Lu Yiming shrugged. Su Rongrong was jealous of him? Lu Yiming should have self awareness. They took Cheng Xiao away with them because they didn’t want to see her fall into the wolf’s mouth. “If Mr. Lu is okay, I’ll leave first.” There was no show to watch, and Li Li said that it would be redundant for her to keep it. “I’ll go to the company tomorrow.” “So urgent?” Li Li was stunned, she was not ready yet. Although Mr. Lu has already talked to me about it. But for Li Li, she would rather continue to be Lu Aijun’s special assistant than cooperate with Lu Yiming. “How do you know if you don’t try?” “What if it’s not suitable?” “Then go back. It’s a month. If you feel there’s no future in following me, you can go back anytime.” “A gentleman’s word is his bond.” “I am not a gentleman.” Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, he doesn’t play by the rules at all. I can’t figure out Lu Yiming in front of me at all. As for Su Rongrong and Cheng Xiao. Under the street lights, the two people’s shadows were very long. “Student Su Rongrong, there’s really nothing going on between me and student Lu.” “What happened to your hand?” Su Rongrong: Could it be that this bastard Lu Yiming is using force again? “No, I was careless…” “Here’s a piece of advice for you. Be careful of Lu Yiming. You’ll get hurt.” That’s all I have to say. If Cheng Xiao insists on throwing herself into the fire, Su Rongrong will not stop her. “Really not…” “It has nothing to do with me.” Su Rongrong said coldly. After all, Cheng Xiao didn’t know about the dirty things Lu Yiming had done. How desperate I felt when I woke up. Fortunately, this bastard still has a little humanity, otherwise… Thinking of this, Su Rongrong’s eyes flashed with coldness. But in Cheng Xiao’s eyes, this was clearly a quarrel between lovers. That’s how it’s played out in TV dramas. Are you still testing yourself? “Student Su, don’t worry, there is really no relationship between Student Lu and I, and I have never thought of destroying other people’s feelings.” At the school gate, Cheng Xiao solemnly swore to Su Rongrong. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What does it mean to destroy a relationship? Cheng Xiao is referring to herself and Lu Yiming? How is that possible! Su Rongrong was about to explain when Cheng Xiao had already disappeared into the night. To Cheng Xiao, maybe Lu Yiming is very good. Yes, although Lu Yiming has always been known as a playboy in school. But, if it weren’t for Lu Yiming today, I would probably… At the moment of despair, Lu Yiming fell from the sky. Like light in darkness. Which girl doesn’t have love in her heart? It’s a pity that Cheng Xiao knew in her heart that she didn’t want to drag anyone down. For me now, love is a luxury. Keep your distance. Cheng Xiao kept reminding herself in her heart. At this time, Lu Yiming returned to the Lu family villa. “You little brat, you’re in trouble again!” This time even the company’s legal department was alarmed. Lu Aijun got the news first. Unexpectedly, this kid acted like nothing happened in front of me. “I am acting bravely.” “Bah!” Just be thankful that you don’t cause trouble, but why do you still act bravely to help others? It was obvious that Lu Aijun did not understand what was going on. By the time Lu Yiming explained the whole story, Lu Aijun, who always hated evil, was obviously angry. Is there such a thing? It’s totally lawless! “Why don’t you beat him to death? This bastard deserves to be beaten to death!” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Uh, it seems that I made a big mistake in my previous life, and my father gave up everything to save me. It’s total double standard. “My eggs are broken. I’m afraid I won’t be able to be humane for the rest of my life.” “Ahem…” It was really a fatal move. The pain of that thing can probably only be experienced by men who have tried it. Of course, this time Lu Aijun stood firmly on his son’s side. No matter how big a fuss the other party made, the Lu Group would take it on. Chapter 30 People’s hearts are unstable In 1995, the infrastructure development in Shanghai showed a blowout development, and the speed of infrastructure construction was even more eye catching. The Lu Group has also set its sights on the fast track of real estate and has officially laid out its real estate business. Moreover, this time it seems unusually high profile. To this end, Lu Aijun also formally established the Lu Real Estate Group. As for the headquarters of the Lu Group, it is located in the recently developed Lujiazui. Next to the Oriental Pearl Tower. The Lujiazui Financial Circle has not yet been officially launched and everything is in the preparation stage. At this time, the Lu Group is also considered one of the iconic landmarks of Lujiazui. Lujiazui, where every inch of land will be worth a lot of money in the future. I have to admit that my dad’s vision is truly invincible. Early in the morning, a Ferrari drove into the Lu Group headquarters. “Sir, I’m sorry, this parking space is reserved for the chairman.” As soon as Lu Yiming parked the car, the security guard at the side came forward to persuade him to leave. Are you kidding? This parking space is reserved for the chairman. Even if it is empty, no one is allowed to park here. Where did these young people come from? They are so ignorant. As for this Ferrari, I’m sorry, the security guard really doesn’t recognize it. Besides, the chairman will definitely arrive in 10 minutes at most. If the parking space is gone, I will lose my job. Don’t underestimate the positions in the Lu Group. Even for security guards, the salary is about 50% higher than the city average. In Lu Aijun’s words, Lu’s employees must demonstrate a sense of superiority. Only in this way can employees work better for Lu Group. Therefore, the salaries of the Lu Group are comparable to those of leading foreign companies. Even at a security guard’s workstation, there are many people watching. “It’s okay, let him park somewhere else.” “No, sir…” Arrogant, too arrogant. In Lu’s Group, he actually snatched the boss’s parking space. This is the first time I’ve met such a person. “Don’t worry, your chairman will never make things difficult for you.” “Sorry, that’s our rule.” The security guard dare not gamble. Besides, the person in front of me is so young, inexperienced and unreliable. The security guard stopped Lu Yiming from leaving, and at this time, a BMW 320 drove over. BBA of this era is definitely the ceiling of luxury cars in the eyes of ordinary people. The owner of this BMW is Li Li. “What’s going on?” “Assistant Li, this gentleman insisted on parking in the chairman’s parking space. We are trying to persuade him to leave. Don’t worry, we will…” “Let him stop.” “ah?!” The security guard was stunned. Ask him to stop? Who does he think he is? The chairman’s son? Okay, the truth is out. At this time, Lu Yiming was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he waited patiently until Li Li parked the car before going forward. “Come on, show me the way.” “Mr. Lu, you are joking. Do you still need me to lead the way in your territory?” “This time, the identity is different.” The security guard was confused as he watched Lu Yiming and Assistant Li leave talking and laughing. Ten minutes later, Lu Aijun’s car came running over, and the security guard looked terrified. As a result, the Benz parked silently in a parking space nearby. There was no trouble from beginning to end. this… The security guard was very puzzled and finally found out after asking his leader. The owner of this Ferrari is actually the boss’s son. “Kid, keep your eyes open. We can’t afford to offend Mr. Lu.” This is advice from seniors. After all, Mr. Lu is a well known playboy. As for the group at this time. People are also in panic. What does it mean? It’s simple. The sudden establishment of the investment department has left the group’s top management confused. The group has just entered the real estate market, and even for a private giant like the Lu Group, funding is a bit tricky. Set up an investment department at this time? What does this mean? Funds are already tight, so where is the spare money for other investments? Many senior executives expressed their different opinions. But President Lu rejected all objections. After all, President Lu still has the final say in the Lu Group. Soon, inside information spread. This investment department was set up by Mr. Lu, who was Mr. Lu. This time, the Lu Group was in complete chaos. Who in the Lu Group doesn’t know about Mr. Lu’s reputation as a playboy? Let this dude take over the newly established investment department? Isn’t this a joke on the future of the group? No one was optimistic about Mr. Lu’s decision. It now seems that no matter how wise Mr. Lu is, he cannot escape the habits of the family business. This is to add experience and bargaining chips to the successor of the Lu Group. But the problem is that now is a great opportunity for the Lu Group to develop rapidly. Today’s market is changing rapidly. Once a mistake is made in decision making, the Lu Group is likely to face incalculable losses. Many senior executives have specifically sought out Mr. Lu. But Lu Aijun seemed to be determined. He even sent his special assistant Li Li to the investment department. In addition, two elites will be selected from each department to strengthen the Investment Department. Seeing that they couldn’t persuade him, everyone could only wait and see. But this is not good news for the group’s employees. No one can predict the future of the Investment Department. Maybe, the Investment Department will become a toy in the hands of Mr. Lu. If things go wrong, Mr. Lu won’t care, but for the people below, they will either take the blame or take the blame. For a moment, people were in panic. Every department is waiting for the final verdict. There’s no way, no one is willing to volunteer. Even though the investment department has Li as its special assistant, Mr. Lu’s reputation as a playboy is deeply rooted in everyone’s mind. No one wants to joke about their own future. “Have you selected the personnel?” “There are 20 people in total. We have selected them, but everyone’s enthusiasm is not high.” This is indeed a problem. Even Li Li couldn’t accept it at first, let alone others. “Don’t think highly of me?” “Maybe there are other concerns.” Li Li’s answer was subtle, but Lu Yiming knew in his heart that she was just worried about her own future. Yes, every time Young Master Lu comes to the group, he causes trouble. No one would believe that this prince is really here to do practical things . Logically speaking, the investment department is the most important department for any company. Being able to enter the investment department is equivalent to entering the core of the enterprise. However, at this time, everyone was avoiding the Lu Group. This is really… “Notify everyone in the department to hold a meeting in the conference room in half an hour.” “good.” Li Li nodded, although she didn’t understand why Lu Yiming had to hold a meeting on his first day in office, and it was a meeting of the entire department. Logically speaking, the Investment Department has a lot of work to do and doesn’t have any projects on hand. After Mr. Lu’s planning, he should focus on stabilizing people’s hearts instead of rushing to prove himself. Doing so will often only have the opposite effect. Li Li originally wanted to persuade him, but in her opinion, it would be better to have a private conversation. At least it can stabilize the morale of the troops. But Lu Yiming chose to take a different approach. “Go and arrange it.” Just as she was about to speak, Lu Yiming didn’t even give Li Li a chance to express her opinion. “knew.” Seeing that Lu Yiming had made his decision, Li Li stopped trying to persuade him. The first meeting of the Lu Group’s investment department was held without any warning. But perhaps no one at the meeting could have imagined this. One day in the future, today’s meeting will be hailed as the start of a legend. And they are all witnesses of history. Chapter 31 New Official Takes Office The Investment Department is located on the 12th floor of the Group. This is the core floor of the group building. It can be seen that Lu Aijun spares no effort in supporting his son. Since his son wanted to make a career, Lu Aijun naturally supported him. At least it’s much better than being called a playboy. Of course, Lu Aijun didn’t let go completely, otherwise he wouldn’t have sent Li Li to the investment department. Lu Yiming knew very well that even if they were father and son, Lu Aijun would never completely trust him. After all, the story of a prodigal son returning home is only suitable for appearing in picture books. This is also the reason why Lu Yiming came to Li Li. It can be considered as a conditional exchange, which can make my father feel at ease. At 10 a.m., the conference room was already full. Everyone is waiting. However, the expressions on their faces were different. Perhaps more of a worry. No one knows what the future of the investment department will be. He didn’t even know whether he would have a future in the Lu Group. At this time, the door of the conference room was pushed open, Lu Yiming took the lead, and Li Li followed behind Lu Yiming. As soon as these two people appeared, everyone hurriedly stood up to greet them. “Okay, put this away. The Investment Department won’t care about this anymore.” Who would have thought that Mr. Lu would never play by the rules. He waved his hand, asked everyone to sit down, and then he sat on the main seat with great pride. “I guess you all already know me. Even if you haven’t seen me in person, you’ve heard rumors about me.” As for what the rumor was, Li Li at the side couldn’t help but twitch her mouth. It was definitely not a good reputation. You’re making fun of yourself right off the bat? I really admire Mr. Lu’s courage. “I know you all have concerns now, but from this moment on, put aside your concerns. What I want is 100% commitment. I don’t want to say nonsense. You will see the future of the investment department.” Lu Yiming didn’t waste any time and went straight to the point. This drastic approach made it difficult for many people to accept it at first. Could this be one of the first three things a new official does upon taking office? “Li Li, how much funds do we have now?” “Boss Lu gave me the authority to do 20 million.” “20 million?” Hearing this number, Lu Yiming couldn’t help but frown. The investment department of the Lu Group only has 20 million in funds? Are you kidding me? After all, it is a leading private enterprise in Shanghai. You know, this time the national debt incident, the Lu Group earned two small goals. Although the profit was greatly reduced due to Lu Yiming’s kindness, compared with the 20 million, it was too… “Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu is also under pressure. After all, the investment department has just been established, and many senior executives still have concerns.” “It’s just short sighted.” Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)…’ It’s not a good idea to criticize the company’s top management right off the bat. Besides, many of the people sitting in the conference room are confidants and spies of various departments. Lu Yiming’s words would probably spread throughout the entire group within an hour. “Mr. Lu…” “Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. Li Li, I’m going to give you a task. I don’t care what method you use, but get in touch with the top management of the telecommunications group in the shortest possible time.” “telecommunications?” Li Li looked surprised. The Lu Group started out as a business relying on foreign trade, and currently the group is involved in the stock market and real estate. As for the telecommunications industry mentioned by Lu Yiming, the Lu Group has never been involved in it at all. Isn’t it too big a step to take all of a sudden? “Mr. Lu, the telecommunications industry is controlled by the state. It is impossible for the private sector to participate in it. Besides…” Although I don’t know what Mr. Lu wants to do, the industry is not suitable for him. In Li Li’s opinion, this is complete nonsense. I originally thought that Mr. Lu had a trump card in his hand, but now it seems that it is completely… “Can’t do it?” “You can contact me, but, please forgive me…” “Then go and make contact, and arrange for three people to prepare to go abroad for inspection in a week.” “Ah?! What are you investigating?” this… Going abroad for inspection? What to inspect? Li Li was completely confused. What was Mr. Lu up to? The Lu Group’s capital is in the country and has no involvement abroad. Even if it is foreign trade business, it is done through the Foreign Trade Bureau, and there is no experience in this area at all. International trade? No, what does this have to do with telecommunications? The group of people in the conference room were completely confused. “Others, collect relevant information about the mobile phone industry on the market. The more detailed the better. Report to me within three days.” Without giving anyone time to react, the Investment Department became Lu Yiming’s one man show. This time, even Li Li couldn’t remain calm. Just as he was about to speak, Lu Yiming, after explaining all this, directly announced “adjournment”. The crowd was left staring at each other in bewilderment. “Vice President Li, this…” Everyone’s eyes turned to Li Li. Are you just fooling around right from the start? Not even knowing the project, isn’t this nonsense? “Don’t ask. Mr. Lu has already spoken. Assign the work yourself. I only look at the results.” Lu Yiming left lightly, but Li Li still had to clean up the mess. I feel tired. 10 minutes later, in Lu Yiming’s office. “Mr. Lu, what exactly do you want to do?” Li Li broke into Lu Yiming’s office directly. With a questioning tone on his face, in Li Li’s opinion, today was just a mess. What a mess. They said they wanted to have a meeting and suddenly assigned a bunch of incomprehensible tasks. “Five minutes earlier than I expected.” Unlike Li Li, Lu Yiming looked calm at this moment. Even in the mood to make tea. “What?” “I knew you were coming, but I didn’t expect you to come so soon.” “Mr. Lu, are you having a seizure today?” “Isn’t it a bad idea to question your direct supervisor like this?” The tit for tat confrontation feels like a collision between Mars and the Earth. “Huh…Okay, sorry for my bad attitude, but I just want to ask Mr. Lu, can you explain what exactly you want to do?” It’s telecommunications, mobile phones, and overseas inspections. Li Li really wanted to ask, Mr. Lu, do you know how much money our investment department has in total? Could it be that Mr. Lu, you still want to develop the mobile phone business? This is simply a fantasy, not to mention that the Lu Group has no ability in this regard. Besides, this track is not something that the Lu Group can interfere with. In the field of mobile phones, foreign giants have already entered. There is no competitor in the country. The country wants to provide strong support, but without key technologies, it will be impossible to succeed. In Li Li’s opinion, the cost of developing a mobile phone is an astronomical figure. Not to mention the Lu Group, even state owned enterprises may not be able to afford it. “It’s settled.” Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Do you know why I asked you to contact Telecom?” “In my opinion, China Mobile and China Unicom far surpass the telecommunications you mentioned in this regard.” “That’s right.” “Mr. Lu, can you please be frank? There is no point in guessing like this.” Since Lu Yiming knew everything, in Li Li’s view, the current Telecom was just an empty shell that had just been separated. There is no advantage at all. Even if we want to cooperate, we should not look for Telecom. “How confident are you if I ask you to cooperate with China Mobile and China Unicom?” “This… doesn’t exist.” China Mobile and China Unicom can eat up a piece of cake by themselves, so is there any need to share it with others? In Li Li’s opinion, only a fool would do this. Chapter 32 Handheld Wireless Telephone Systems “Try this cup of Da Hong Pao, it’s a treasure from the mother tree.” Lu Yiming pushed a cup of freshly brewed black tea in front of Li Li. “Mr. Lu…” As Mr. Lu’s special assistant, how could he not know Dahongpao? This is Mr. Lu’s favorite. But he didn’t expect that on the first day Mr. Lu came, he destroyed Mr. Lu’s collection. You know, even if the guest is very distinguished, Mr. Lu would be reluctant to take it out. But Lu Yiming was so comfortable with wasting things. If I drink this, would it be considered as going along with the crowd? This is clearly an attempt to drag me down. “Don’t look at me like that. No matter how good the tea is, it needs someone to taste it. If you don’t believe me, try smelling it. If you leave it for a while longer, the tea will really be wasted.” I have to admire Lu Yiming for talking nonsense in a serious manner. “I can’t taste it.” “It’s just right. You can accompany me to bite the peony. We are kindred spirits.” Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Could it be any more outrageous? “Okay, I understand your concerns. By the way, how much is your current phone bill per month?” “Um?” “Will the Lu Group reimburse the mobile phone bill?” “300. The company won’t reimburse you for now, but it’s on Mr. Lu’s agenda.” You know, what was the national average salary in 1995? It has not yet broken the 500 mark. Li Li’s cell phone bill is close to 300. Although mobile phones have gradually become popular, they are still a luxury for most ordinary people. Not to mention, a mobile phone can cost less than ten thousand yuan. “Look, cell phone charges are not cheap.” “Mr. Lu, what do you want to say?” Indeed, mobile phone communication charges are not low, and are charged in both directions, 0.5 cents per minute. Even an executive like Li Li tries to be brief when speaking on the phone. But what does this have to do with Mr. Lu? How could a dandy young master care about his cell phone bill? “What if we could lower our communication rates to landline rates?” “That’s impossible.” To Li Li, this was simply a fantasy. Mobile phone operators are a state monopoly, so there is no possibility of price reduction in this regard. Even if it is the trend in the future, it is just a fantasy at the moment. “Be prepared for danger in times of peace. That’s because we are used to living a comfortable life.” “Mr. Lu, I really don’t understand, what exactly do you want to do?” “PHS.” “What’s the meaning?” “Personal Handy Phone System, translated as personal mobile communication system, a better understanding is a handheld wireless phone system.” “cell phone?” Such a professional term, after all, isn’t it just a mobile phone? Li Li really didn’t understand what Lu Yiming was up to. “No, a handheld wireless telephone system is, as the name implies, a wireless landline telephone.” “Wireless landline?” this… Li Li was completely dumbfounded. Is this possible? “Mr. Lu, the handheld wireless telephone system you mentioned doesn’t seem to exist in China.” “certainly.” Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Li Li really wanted to question Lu Yiming, is he just trying to make fun of her by saying so much? This thing isn’t even available in China, what are you showing off? Prove that you, Mr. Lu, are knowledgeable? “You see, it’s not about being anxious. When tasting tea, it’s all about the state of mind.” “Mr. Lu, are you planning on using this handheld wireless phone system?” Li Li calmed down and immediately discovered the business opportunity. “Yes, you are very receptive.” “Impossible, Mr. Lu, let me say the same thing just now. The domestic mobile industry is in the hands of the state. It is impossible for a private person to take it over. This is a national policy. Not to mention the Lu Group, even if we find a higher level leader, there is no possibility of negotiation.” Ever since mobile phones entered the domestic market, it’s not that no one has thought about this. After all, everyone would be tempted by such a big piece of cake. Among them, many are powerful, but who has ever succeeded? Even the agents are controlled by the mobile giants, so it is just a pipe dream to want to get a piece of the pie. Li Li thought that Young Master Lu was very capable, but now it seems that it was just a pipe dream. “Don’t be impatient, you’re not calm enough.” “Mr. Lu, I just think there is no need to waste time on such an impossible thing.” “Have you forgotten what I asked you to do?” “telecommunications?” “Yes, it’s telecommunications.” Lu Yiming smiled slightly. He did not have the chance before, but now was the real opportunity. China Mobile has just been separated from China Telecom, and the mobile business has also been stripped out. At this time, Telecom was eager to develop its mobile business, but the problem was that it did not have its own license. But the superiors also want to assess the business growth indicators. For the senior management of Telecom, this period is extremely urgent. And for Lu Yiming, this is the best opportunity. Once you can grasp it. Thinking of this, Lu Yiming’s smile could not be concealed any more. “Mr. Lu, Telecom is a central enterprise after all, and there are not many examples of cooperation with private enterprises.” State owned enterprises are often superior to others. Even the top private enterprise like Lu Group is still not taken seriously by state owned enterprises. The most important point is that state owned enterprises are not short of money. With a strong backer, there is naturally no shortage of funds, which is something that no other private enterprise can match. “You want to say they are superior?” “Isn’t it?” “That’s because others don’t have the leverage that makes them excited.” “Mr. Lu, what makes you think they would be interested in a handheld wireless phone system?” “Because they have no better choice.” “this…” Lu Yiming’s confidence made Li Li silent. Of course, if Lu Yiming’s judgment is correct, this is indeed a good entry point for the Lu Group. But why does Mr. Lu think that he can get this technology? “Mr. Lu, where does the technology come from?” “NTT, the telecommunications giant that lives a small life.” “It’s unrealistic. If it’s really like what Mr. Lu said, how could the other party transfer the technology to us?” The domestic market has huge potential, and the other party cannot ignore this. If this handheld wireless telephone system is really as good as Mr. Lu said, why doesn’t NTT enter the domestic market itself? And wait for the Lu Group to reap the benefits? “It’s simple. They have no money.” “Well…” This reason is really irrefutable. “NTT has the technology, but their research direction was wrong from the beginning. In my opinion, the handheld wireless phone system can be used as a transition during the market gap, but the overall research direction is wrong.” “I don’t understand it anymore.” “You don’t need to understand all this. You just need to remember that the handheld wireless phone system is currently the most suitable for the domestic market. As for how to convince NTT, that’s my business. You just need to convince the telecom executives.” “I can try, but I can’t guarantee the results.” Li Li was not absolutely sure. “That’s your business. I only care about the results. You’re a special assistant. Is this all you can do?” Well, although it is a provocation that can be seen at a glance, it is very effective for Li Li. My professionalism was looked down upon by a playboy. Li Li said that she absolutely could not agree to it. “Look, the tea is getting cold.” Lu Yiming was hinting at something. “I did it, you can do whatever you want.” Li Li finished the Dahongpao in front of her in one gulp. “It’s been a pleasure working with you.” This is more than just a cup of tea. It is of great significance to be able to win Li Li’s support. At this moment, the two of them were like grasshoppers on the same rope. How does that sentence go? We carried guns together and went whoring together… Uh, that’s not right. Chapter 33: Indenture Cheng Xiao sat on the steps of the outpatient clinic with a worried look on her face. Although Section Chief Jin deserves the punishment, he has been put under investigation. But for Cheng Xiao, her difficulties were not resolved. When Cheng Xiao arrived at the hospital early in the morning, she went to visit her mother first. The attending physician who heard the news also found me. It’s still a matter of unpaid bills, although the hospital agreed to give us another day. But where can I raise such a large sum of money in such a short time? There is still some time before salary is paid. Now, all the relatives at home are avoiding me. Yes, my mother’s illness is like a bottomless pit. At the beginning, it was impossible to provide any help, but my relatives were just an ordinary family. There’s really nothing I can do to help you. Cheng Xiao saw no hope at all. But once treatment is stopped, there is only one outcome. Mother is the only relative I have in this world. I can’t just watch my mother die. At this moment, the ground in front of her eyes suddenly darkened, and Cheng Xiao looked up in surprise. In the backlight, a familiar figure appeared in front of Cheng Xiao. Is it him? “Lu…Student Lu?” It was none other than Lu Yiming. “have a look.” Lu Yiming had a blank expression on his face, but he was holding a few pieces of paper in his hands. “What’s this?” “Your indenture.” “Student Lu, please stop joking.” Indenture? Cheng Xiao felt as if her heart was stabbed, and it hurt a little. Could it be that he is the same as others? Is the only light in my heart going to be extinguished? “I understand that your mother needs treatment, and if nothing goes wrong, the entire treatment will cost 200,000 yuan.” “you…” Why does Lu Yiming know so much? He investigates himself? Cheng Xiao instantly became alert. What on earth is the man in front of me trying to do? “I can handle it.” “Solve it? With your part time jobs day and night? These odd jobs are not even enough to cover daily expenses.” “I…” “The only house has been sold.” “What do you mean?” Cheng Xiao was a little angry. Although what Lu Yiming said was true, these facts were like knives stabbing her heart. It hurts so much that it’s hard to breathe. Why did the man in front of me want to tear apart my last bit of strength? “I’ll give you a chance to solve it once and for all.” Lu Yiming handed the agreement in his hand to Cheng Xiao. “Lu Yiming, I misjudged you.” Cheng Xiao stood up and glared at Lu Yiming. She knew the content of the agreement in Lu Yiming’s hand without having to guess. Cheng Xiao knew that she was beautiful, but at the same time, this also meant that she could be in danger at any time and anywhere. From childhood to adulthood, how many men looked at me with eyes that revealed naked desire. This kind of look scared Cheng Xiao. Unexpectedly, Lu Yiming was no different from these men. What a bullshit agreement. You want to support me, right? The content of this may be even more disgusting. He saved himself one day, perhaps just because he didn’t want to fall into the clutches of others. For these men, their chastity is what they value. No wonder classmate Su Rongrong told me to stay away from Lu Yiming. It seems that what Su Rongrong said was true. “I am short of money, but I will never sell myself out.” “So, you’re going to watch your mother die?” Threats, naked threats. Holding your only weakness. To Cheng Xiao, this was such a ruthless answer. Watching your mother die of illness? I can’t do it myself. However, when Cheng Xiao thought about selling her body, she trembled. Not fear, but anger. Such a stubborn look. It made Lu Yiming lose consciousness for a while. In the previous life, I had this look in my eyes. Despair, despair again. Originally, Lu Yiming didn’t want to have any more entanglements with Cheng Xiao. After all, for Lu Yiming, staying away from Cheng Xiao may be the best ending. But Cheng Xiao’s mother’s illness has reached the most critical stage. With the help of drugs and instruments, it may be possible to delay the treatment until a kidney source is found. But once you give up treatment, there is no chance of a miracle happening. In the previous life, Cheng Xiao lost her only relative because of this. For a while, I lived like a walking corpse. Lu Yiming found out all this afterwards. Now the opportunity is before me, even if it is for the sake of atonement, I cannot sit idly by. But Cheng Xiao would never accept the money for free, Lu Yiming knew this very well. Cheng Xiao doesn’t need anyone’s pity, perhaps she has already seen through the ups and downs of the world. This may be the best way. “You are shameless.” “You only have this one chance, don’t rush, wait and see what the agreement is before making a decision.” Lu Yiming put the agreement in Cheng Xiao’s hand and turned away without looking back. Leaving behind was Cheng Xiao, who was in a daze, and the agreement, which was crumpled into a ball. For ten full minutes, Cheng Xiao didn’t move. I don’t even have the courage to open the agreement in my hand. Cheng Xiao was afraid that she would lose control. Silently returned to the corridor of the ward. “What are you doing?!” Cheng Xiao was shocked that the hospital nurse had actually moved her mother’s ward to the corridor. “This… I’m really sorry, but there’s nothing we can do. This is what the higher ups mean. Little girl, we know you’re filial, so you better think of a solution. The hospital can only provide basic life support right now.” Everyone knows that the girl in front of them is also a miserable person. But there is no other way, we all rely on the hospital’s salary to make a living. This kind of thing has happened before, it’s just that the medical expenses owed are too high. “mom…” Cheng Xiao stood in front of him. “Let’s go home. We can’t treat it anymore. Mom is fine.” Cheng Xiao’s mother spoke with difficulty, her face pale. It seemed as if every word he spoke took a huge amount of energy. I can’t treat it anymore. I really don’t want to treat it anymore. I have been a burden to my daughter for too long. How much injustice has my daughter suffered because of me. She should be at an age where she should be cared for like a princess. At this time, he tasted the hardships of society too early. Cheng’s mother didn’t want to burden her daughter any more. “Mom, don’t talk nonsense, we can definitely cure it.” “No need, Mom is already very satisfied.” They were originally a happy family, it seemed like God did it on purpose. The husband met with an accident at work, and the once happy family was shattered. After finally raising his daughter, he was diagnosed with a terminal illness. The treatment used up all the family savings, and even their only home was sold. My daughter is very sensible, but her sensibility is heartbreaking. I am a burden to my daughter. Maybe closing my eyes early will be a relief for her. “No, Mom, you have to believe me, it can be cured, I promise.” Cheng Xiao held the agreement tightly in her hand. Finally I made up my mind. Sooner or later you will be someone else’s plaything, so what’s the point of following Lu Yiming? At least, he helped himself. Cheng Xiao could only take a gamble, betting that Lu Yiming still had some humanity. After getting yourself, you can still keep your promise. Gritting her teeth, Cheng Xiao hardened her heart completely. “Mom, it can be solved right away, trust me, just wait, I will find a solution now.” Cheng Xiao handed the only fifty yuan she had to the nurse, asking him to take care of her mother, and then she rushed out of the hospital. Find Lu Yiming, find Lu Yiming, and agree to any conditions. As long as I can save my mother, I would be willing to go to hell. Chapter 34: Descent into Hell “Master Lu, someone is looking for you.” Zhang Zun had a lewd expression on his face and grinned at Lu Yiming. Zhang Zun, Wang Kun, Li Rui, Fan Cheng. Lu Yiming’s four guardians were also the culprits who instigated Lu Yiming to knock Su Rongrong unconscious. He is also Lu Yiming’s college roommate. However, ever since the last incident, Young Master Lu seemed to have intentionally distanced himself from the four of them. This caused panic among the four. Well, I can only take advantage of Young Master Lu’s power to bully others. Once I’m ‘abandoned’ by Young Master Lu, my good days will be over. It was a rare day today when Young Master Lu came back to the dormitory, and the four of them were acting like servile followers. They rushed to show their courtesy to Lu Yiming. How long has it been since Lu Yiming returned and someone has come to his door? Not to mention, there were many girls who threw themselves at Lu Yiming during college. It’s a pity that, relying on her good looks, she wants to make Mr. Lu fall in love with her. In the opinion of several people, these girls are stupid. What kind of women has Mr. Lu not seen? If you are a little bit pretty in school and are the center of attention of all the boys, do you really not know your own weight? However, this time, the person was definitely unexpected. “Didn’t you see that Master Lu just came back? Those vulgar women are not worthy of Master Lu’s attention. Just send them away.” “That’s right, Zhang Zun, hurry up, I’ll go out and buy some skewers so we can have a good meal.” It was a rare opportunity to take pictures of Lu Yiming’s horses, so they naturally didn’t want to miss it. “This time is different, Mr. Lu, you should go and meet him. Maybe there will be a surprise.” Zhang Zun actually kept the secret, which made the other three feel anxious. This guy has a lot of clever ideas and is the one who can please Master Lu the most. I don’t know what went wrong this time. Unfortunately, what Zhang Zun didn’t know was that he had already been blacklisted by Lu Yiming. I haven’t settled the score for the last time I got into trouble. There are a lot of things that need to be dealt with during this period of time. When I have time, I want to see why Zhang Zun did this. At this time, Lu Yiming remained calm. So as not to alert the enemy. After Lu Yiming left the dormitory, several people glared at Zhang Zun. “What the hell are you doing, kid? Didn’t you notice that Master Lu has ignored us for a while?” “That’s right. I finally came back, but you’re still causing trouble.” “No, guys, this time is different.” “What’s the difference? Young Master Lu hates those self righteous girls. You know that.” “Hey, this time it’s Campus Belle Cheng.” “Cheng Xiao?!” The other three were also stunned. How could it be Cheng Xiao? Cheng Xiao is quite famous in Shanghai University. Although she is not as famous as Su Rongrong, she is also the white moonlight in the eyes of many boys. But I have never heard of any story between Cheng Xiao and Mr. Lu. “Could it be that Master Lu has turned his gun around?” “It’s possible. In terms of looks, Su Rongrong and Cheng Xiao are equally matched. Maybe Young Master Lu thinks Su Rongrong is too hard to pick, so he turns his attention to Cheng Xiaohua.” “Not really. This time, Cheng Xiao came to me on her own.” “This… maybe if Young Master Lu is in a good mood, there will be hope for our business as well?” “Who said it wasn’t? I heard from my dad that although the investment department has just been established, its support is strong enough. If we can get in, we will have a good life.” “That makes sense. Let’s try it later while Mr. Lu is in a good mood.” It turns out that these four people actually had this idea in mind. Join the investment department? Isn’t it a mess? At this time, Lu Yiming saw Cheng Xiao at the dormitory door. His eyes were red, and his right hand, which was holding the agreement, was trembling slightly. “Have you figured it out?” “Can we change the place?” There were many boys coming in and out, and their eyes were all on Cheng Xiao. The arrival of School Beauty Cheng is enough to cause a sensation. At this time, Cheng Xiao only hoped to change places. She had thrown away all her dignity and begged Lu Yiming not to be so blatant and unscrupulous. “Can.” One in front and one behind. Cheng Xiao followed closely behind Lu Yiming. The teaching building. At this time, there are no students in the teaching building. Lu Yiming randomly found a classroom and stopped. But Cheng Xiao behind him didn’t notice it at all. He bumped into Lu Yiming’s back. Only then did he come to his senses and immediately took two steps back. “Now that you’ve figured it out, hurry up.” “Right here?” Cheng Xiao’s voice couldn’t help but tremble. I originally thought that Lu Yiming would be very proud and would take me to the hotel. Who would have thought that it would be a classroom. Lu Yiming, this pervert, does he like to be in the classroom… Cheng Xiao has heard that some boys are mentally ill and like exciting places. “Not allowed here?” Lu Yiming was also stunned. It was just signing an agreement. Why couldn’t he sign it? “Lu Yiming, can you give me a little dignity?” “What do you mean? If you can’t figure it out, forget it.” Looking at Cheng Xiao’s desperate eyes, Lu Yiming frowned. Am I pushing too hard? Or should I let her think about it carefully? Perhaps there is a safer way. But in Cheng Xiao’s eyes, Lu Yiming seemed to be unwilling to even leave himself the last bit of dignity. Not only will you tear apart your dignity, but you will also trample yourself into hell. Watching Lu Yiming leaving. Thinking of my mother who is still lying in the corridor, unable to receive treatment. Cheng Xiao bit her lower lip, and the rusty taste stimulated her brain. No, I can’t hesitate any longer, for my mother and myself… “Okay, right here.” “You should have said so earlier.” Lu Yiming turned around, but the next scene completely shocked Lu Yiming. The originally pure white shirt had been pulled open, with buttons falling to the ground. Cheng Xiao’s hands were shaking as she was about to continue… The snow white and delicate skin is exposed to the air. Cheng Xiao was trembling all over, without stopping for a moment. There was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. Cheng Xiao had bitten her lips herself. How exciting is this scene for a man? “Stop!” The roar scared Cheng Xiao. The next moment, a men’s coat was draped over Cheng Xiao. The collar was pulled tight, and Lu Yiming’s stunned expression was right in front of him. So close. “What are you doing!” “Isn’t this what you want? Lu Yiming, I have already promised you, you can do whatever you want, please, save my mother.” Collapse, complete collapse. At this moment, Cheng Xiao could no longer hold on. Things have come to this point, what else does Lu Yiming want to do? Is it true that even the last bit of dignity must be trampled upon? And you have to admit with your own mouth that you were the one who seduced him? “Lu Yiming, yes, that’s how I am. For my mother, I am willing to do anything. You won, is that ok? Are you satisfied?” Cheng Xiao closed her eyes in despair, waiting for the storm to come. Chapter 35: Different Style Cheng Xiao told herself more than once to be patient, grit her teeth, and just treat it as if she had been bitten by a mad dog. However, when things really came to this, Cheng Xiao realized that all her previous psychological preparation was in vain. My body couldn’t help but tremble. Even if Lu Yiming’s coat was on her body. There is still a sense of shame of being naked in front of each other. Why hasn’t he done anything yet? Could it be that at this time, you are still playing a trick on me. “Please, take me.” The voice sounded almost like begging, but when Cheng Xiao mustered up the courage to open her eyes again, the classroom was empty. Gone? He left. Was he not satisfied with his performance just now? It was his hysteria that made him return home disappointed. But what about my mother? I could only watch him lying in the hospital corridor waiting to die. Cheng Xiao was completely desperate. She didn’t even seize her last chance. I no longer have the strength to support my body. Cheng Xiao slowly squatted down and let her tears flow. “Are you done crying?” I don’t know how long it took before I heard a familiar voice behind me. It’s him, Lu Yiming, he’s back again? Is this to mock yourself? “What do you want?” Every word seemed to consume all my energy. “water.” Lu Yiming handed over a bottle of water and watched Cheng Xiao gradually calm down. They could finally have a good conversation. Cheng Xiao didn’t reach out. Lu Yiming unscrewed the bottle cap. “Drink some water, or there’s nothing to talk about.” threaten. Under Lu Yiming’s threat, Cheng Xiao had no choice but to take the water bottle. A cold feeling and rationality seemed to return to Cheng Xiao. “Didn’t you read the agreement given to you?” “Do I need to watch it again? Once or twice? Or a month?” “One year.” Cheng Xiao: One year? Lu Yiming in front of her is really a devil. Within one year, she will be his. That’s right, apart from being pretty, what else can I bring to Lu Yiming? “Okay, just one year.” “Wait, did you misunderstand again?” This look of despair is really… “Lu Yiming, I promised everything, isn’t that enough?” “Pah.” Cheng Xiao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Cheng Xiao received a hard blow on the forehead. “Does it hurt?” “pain.” “It’s ok as long as you know it hurts. Now, I’ll give you ten minutes to take a good look at this agreement.” Lu Yiming wanted to ask, does his face really look like a bad guy? Ten minutes later. Cheng Xiao looked stupidly at the agreement that had been shattered into pieces by her. assistant? One year assistant? Or an employee of Lu Group? I wonder if I am dreaming. “Really just an assistant?” “Of course, but it’s on call. You have to be on call 24 hours a day to handle any emergencies.” “That’s all?” “Cheng Xiao, who gave you the confidence that I would accept your offer of love?” “I…” Misunderstanding? Was it really my misunderstanding? At this moment, Cheng Xiao was overwhelmed with emotions. 200,000. This is a huge sum of 200,000 yuan. Not only does he owe the hospital bills, but he also has to pay for his mother’s future medical treatment. Cheng Xiao could never have imagined that one year of hers would be so valuable. “Why?” “What why?” “The average income of graduates from Magic City University is less than 800.” Why am I worth 200,000? Lu Yiming: Damn your self esteem. “Cheng Xiao, I don’t want your body, but in this year, your soul must belong to me, understand?” Lu Yiming pretended to be vicious. In the previous life, I had this look in my eyes. Lu Yiming didn’t want to see it from Cheng Xiao again. Whether it’s for atonement or something else… I just want Cheng Xiao to be happy in this life. Lu Yiming also wanted to stay away from Cheng Xiao. However, Lu Yiming couldn’t do it and just watched Cheng Xiao fall into despair. For myself, perhaps I can easily change Cheng Xiao’s life. Anything that can be solved with money is not a problem. “Sign it after you read it.” A cold tone. It’s completely a business like appearance. You obviously care about the other person, but you are afraid that you can’t control yourself. “Why?” “What?” “Why?” The repeated questions made Lu Yiming frown. “The world is already in tatters, and someone has to mend it. Lu Yiming, are you here to mend my life?” Seeing that Lu Yiming didn’t answer, Cheng Xiao imagined it herself. Cheng Xiao still signed her name on the agreement. “You’ll have half an hour to change your clothes and we’ll go to the hospital.” “good.” At this time, Cheng Xiao was very obedient. However, the way it looks at this moment is really… She could only put on Lu Yiming’s coat to barely hide her beauty. They left the teaching building one after another. Looking back, teaching at this time is no longer a horrible “nightmare” in Cheng Xiao’s eyes. Looking at Lu Yiming’s back in front of her, Cheng Xiao felt mixed emotions. However, this scene was seen by others. A man and a woman came out of the teaching building at this late hour? What could they be doing? And they were wearing boys’ coats. This scene is so easy to arouse associations. The key point is that both Cheng Xiao and Lu Yiming are too famous in Shanghai University. It was quickly recognized. What is the story that School Beauty Cheng and Lu Wanku have to tell? After School Belle Su, School Belle Cheng also fell into the clutches of the evil one? This is explosive news! Lu Yiming gave Cheng Xiao half an hour to prepare. As a result, Cheng Xiao only took five minutes. I washed my face and changed my coat. Lu Yiming had to admit that Cheng Xiao looked really good without makeup. She feels like a goddess without makeup. “alright?” “Um.” “Let’s go.” Lu Yiming started the Ferrari and rushed to the hospital. Lu Yiming paid off the outstanding debt of 18,000 yuan in one lump sum. I also paid an additional deposit of 30,000 yuan. Cheng Xiao’s mother was quickly transferred back to the ward. “Please get in touch with the kidney source. I will also ask for help from my connections.” Lu Yiming stood beside Cheng Xiao. At this moment, hope was rekindled in Cheng Xiao’s eyes. It turns out this is what it feels like to have someone to rely on. “Quit your job at the bar. I’ll say hello to Sister Qian.” In her previous life, Cheng Xiao’s health had never been good. Now that I think about it, it was probably caused by overdraft. “I will talk to Sister Qian myself.” “You’ll have a week to process it.” There is no need to worry about Cheng Xiao’s studies. She is a real academic master. In her previous life, if she had not stayed at home to take care of her husband and children, Cheng Xiao would have been fully capable of standing on her own. It’s a pity that Lu Yiming doesn’t know how to cherish. Cheng Xiao gave everything for Lu Yiming, but in return, all she got was someone’s substitute. “Thank you.” “Thanks so much.” Lu Yiming waved and left the hospital. Wave goodbye and not a cloud is taken away. Maybe I don’t dare. Lu Yiming has been reminding himself to keep a distance so as not to repeat the same mistakes. However, Lu Yiming did not realize that the eyes behind him were already emitting a different look. Chapter 36 Gossip News “Big news.” Lu Yiming didn’t know that the girls’ dormitory was already in an uproar tonight. Someone saw Lu Yiming and Cheng Xiao coming out of the teaching building late at night. Moreover, Cheng Xiao was wearing Lu Yiming’s coat. What happened here? We are all adults, and we have probably guessed it. I just didn’t expect it. As graduation is approaching, the campus beauty of Cheng University unexpectedly… Rumors spread quickly. Various versions have emerged. There is a saying that goes like this. Envy, jealousy and hatred will only disappear when the gap between us is huge. For example, Su Rongrong is beautiful and comes from a wealthy family. Although Su Rongrong has never deliberately shown off herself. But we are not blind. Su Rongrong’s food, clothing and other expenses are definitely not comparable to those of children from ordinary families. The skin care products alone are astronomically expensive in the eyes of my classmates. The rumor that Su Rongrong is the eldest daughter has long been circulating in the school. It’s just that Su Rongrong never responded. Therefore, among the group of girls, Su Rongrong has always been a goddess who is high above everyone else. No matter who you are, you will feel ashamed in front of Su Rongrong. However, such a thing will never happen to Cheng Xiao. Cheng Xiao is also a school beauty, but compared with Su Rongrong, Cheng Xiao is just Cinderella. It is beautiful, but it is a pity that she does not have equal identity and status. In addition, Cheng Xiao is not sociable and is busy working every day. Gradually, many rumors about Cheng Xiao spread in the school. For Cheng Xiao, perhaps none of this matters. However, Cheng Xiao is now hooking up with Lu Yiming. It immediately evolved into greed and vanity. “I really didn’t realize that Cheng Xiao is quite capable.” “That’s not the case. He usually looks quite cool, but I didn’t expect that he couldn’t escape the silver bullet attack.” “Then don’t choose Lu Yiming, he has a bad reputation.” “Tsk, as long as I have money, that’s all. If I really marry into the Lu family, I’ll be the life of a rich lady.” “Women, getting married is like a second life.” A lot of sarcastic words were circulating in each dormitory. “Su Rongrong, what do you think Cheng Xiao wants? Can’t she be a little more reserved?” “That’s right, they’re having so much fun and they’re still teaching, tsk tsk…” “Su Rongrong, do you think Cheng Xiao did this on purpose? It’s obvious that you and Lu Yiming…” “What happened between him and me?” Su Rongrong frowned. Last time, she rejected the confession of the student union president and left with Lu Yiming. Suddenly, it became explosive news in the school. Many people are discussing themselves. It’s just that he doesn’t dare to be so blatant in front of me. But this time it was Cheng Xiao’s turn, and these girls didn’t have such concerns. “No, Rongrong, you misunderstood us. I just think that Cheng Xiao did it on purpose. You left school with Lu Yiming and she hooked up with him right after you left. Tell me, is she deliberately trying to compare herself with him?” Now that you put it that way, it really is possible. School Belle Cheng is deliberately trying to compete with School Belle Su. “If you put all this effort into vocabulary, you won’t fail the CET 4.” “I…” Well, Su Rongrong didn’t fall for it at all. However, Su Rongrong was also feeling unhappy at this moment. It’s not that Lu Yiming is close to anyone. The key point is that this scumbag is harming girls again. The target this time was Cheng Xiao again. Su Rongrong saw Cheng Xiao’s efforts. During her sophomore year, Su Rongrong discovered by chance that Cheng Xiao was working in a 24 hour convenience store. The courses at Shanghai University are already very tight. Is it because of the hospital? It was my own negligence. Did Lu Yiming threaten Cheng Xiao because of this? Su Rongrong saw Cheng Xiao’s efforts. How could Lu Yiming have the heart to lay his hands on a girl like this? “Rongrong, it’s almost time to lock the door, where are you going?” Su Rongrong’s behavior puzzled her roommates. However, there was no response from Su Rongrong at all. “Isn’t he going to ask Lu Yiming for clarification?” “Impossible. Our Rongrong is so proud. When have you ever seen her fall in love with a boy?” “The situation is different now. Think about it. If it was a normal situation, it would be fine. But Rongrong and Lu Yiming got involved, and then Lu Yiming cheated on Cheng Xiao. What does Rongrong think?” “Well…” If this explanation is given, it seems possible. Yes, Su Rongrong may not like Lu Yiming. However, we can’t let Lu Yiming and Cheng Xiao be related without knowing the reason. Otherwise, wouldn’t it mean that Su Rongrong is inferior to Cheng Xiao? “Two beautiful girls on campus fighting for one man?” “No way, how big of a sensation would that cause?” Well, in an instant, they all turned into spectators. At this time, Lu Yiming was driving a Ferrari on Nanjing Road. The phone rings. At this point in time, apart from my bad friends, I really can’t think of anyone who would look for me. Lu Yiming picked up the phone casually. But what I heard was Su Rongrong’s voice. this… What the hell? I just want to ask, how did Su Rongrong get her own number? Well, Lu Yiming underestimated the ability of the Su family. Not to mention a number, as long as the Su family wants to investigate, Lu Yiming’s experience of wetting the bed as a child will probably be put in front of Su Rongrong. “Looking for me?” “Talk.” “Can.” Su Rongrong took the initiative to find him, which made Lu Yiming a little excited. The two met at the school gate. The moment the Ferrari stopped, Su Rongrong seemed a little hesitant, but finally opened the car door. “Where are you going?” “Where there are a lot of people.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… This is probably because he is afraid that something will happen to him again. “It was just a misunderstanding last time.” “Lu Yiming, I’m not confident in your character.” “have to.” Lu Yiming smiled bitterly and started the car. Half an hour later. The river breeze blows on my face. Su Rongrong: I did say that I wanted to find a crowded place, but you, Lu Yiming, actually brought me to the Bund. What does it mean? “There are quite a lot of people.” There are tourists everywhere, people coming and going, it’s very lively. “You and Cheng Xiao…” Su Rongrong went straight to the point. “Are you jealous?” “Lu Yiming, can you be serious? I don’t care whether you live or die, but you can’t ruin Cheng Xiao’s reputation.” Su Rongrong and Cheng Xiao can perhaps be described as admiring each other, although they don’t have much contact. But if Lu Yiming really used despicable means, Su Rongrong would never let it go. “Can’t you think better of me?” Lu Yiming smiled bitterly. “Lu Yiming, I’m serious.” “I just wanted to help her.” “Nothing else?” “It was really just a misunderstanding last time.” “hehe…” “All I have in my mind is…” “Shut up!” He looked fierce, hiding his panic. Su Rongrong didn’t know why she should meddle in other people’s business. Under the breeze, Su Rongrong gradually calmed down and felt a little ridiculous. Chapter 37 Su Family Lineage “Boss Lu, we have contacted the senior management of Telecom, but things are not going smoothly. The other party does not seem to show much interest.” As soon as Li Li got to work, she reported the progress to Lu Yiming. However, the attitude of the telecom executives was vague, and they seemed to have no intention of cooperating with the Lu Group. “Who is in charge?” “Mr. Gao is responsible for the development of the domestic market.” “Be more specific.” “Mr. Lu, this is Mr. Gao’s resume.” Li Li was very well prepared, which is also a reflection of her ability. Lu Yiming took the document from Li Li. “Eh…” Looking at Mr. Gao’s resume, Lu Yiming noticed something wrong. First of all, Mr. Gao has an impressive resume. At the age of less than 40, he is able to hold the position of vice president in charge of the telecommunications marketing department, which is enough to demonstrate Mr. Gao’s ability. But this resume is too good. The vice president of a telecommunications group is not a low level. If this is put into the officialdom, every promotion of this General Gao just happened to be at the right time. It is rare to see cadres rising in a helicopter spiral. This is impossible to achieve by relying solely on one’s own abilities. “Did you do a background check?” “We investigated.” “Reliable.” “Thank you for the compliment.” I have to admit that the two of them work together perfectly. Needless to say, Li Li’s abilities are just right in every aspect. Li Li had anticipated what Lu Yiming wanted. No wonder Lu Aijun attaches so much importance to Li Li. Of course, in the previous life, Lu Yiming and Li Li’s cooperation was also perfect. Lu Yiming’s resurgence is inseparable from Li Li’s help. “Su family?” Lu Yiming didn’t expect that it was such a coincidence that Mr. Gao was actually the son in law of the Su family? this… With the support of the Su family and relying on his own abilities, it is no wonder that he can rise to the top. “Su family?” “Yeah, I didn’t expect that either.” In Shanghai, the Su family might not be very prominent, but in Su Province, the status of the Su family is hard to imagine. Lu Yiming had a deep understanding of the Su family’s enormous strength in his previous life. A real behemoth, with its tentacles reaching into every aspect. Intricately intertwined. The Su family is present in both the business and government circles. There are also many official agents. As for Mr. Gao, he is obviously a direct descendant of the Su family and has been trained with great effort. No wonder he is so arrogant. He doesn’t take the Lu family’s goodwill seriously at all. “Mr. Lu, if it’s the Su family, I’m afraid there will be trouble.” Li Li had recovered from her shock by now. There is no need to say much about the strength of the Su family. Moreover, according to Li Li’s understanding, the Su family is very ambitious and has long wanted to get involved in the Magic City. “It is indeed a bit troublesome. When probing, did you mention any specific cooperation?” The trump card is very important to Lu Yiming. After all, everyone wants to have a piece of this big cake. “Not yet.” “I’m afraid the other party already has a target.” “this…” “Advance our schedule.” “good.” Originally, Lu Yiming still had enough time, but once the Su family got involved in this matter, accidents could happen to Lu Yiming at any time. We must hurry up. “Mr. Lu, a business visa will only take two days.” “Tell everyone to be prepared.” Get the agency rights first, then the Lu Group will be invincible. At this time, Lu Group welcomed a guest. “Hello, who are you looking for?” The lady at the front desk was so beautiful. It was the first time I saw such a beautiful woman. However, in terms of temperament, she seems to be a little lacking and a little stage frightened. After entering the Lu Group, I have been looking around, as if everything is so new. “Hello, I’m here to see Lu Yiming.” “Mr. Lu? Do you have an appointment?” Mr. Lu is not someone you can meet casually. Lu Yiming is now in the Lu Group and is at least one of the top executives. Although I don’t know what Mr. Lu was thinking, the young Mr. Lu, who just graduated, was assigned to such an important position. There are also disagreements within the group. After all, apart from being the heir to the Lu Group, Lu Yiming doesn’t have any outstanding achievements. As for the woman in front of him, could she be Mr. Lu’s confidante? Mr. Lu’s reputation as a playboy is well known not only in Shanghai University, but also in the Lu Group. In the past, the beautiful young ladies of the Lu Group were often harassed by Mr. Lu. Of course, Lu Yiming didn’t dare to go too far. After all, he has his father to support him. At most, it’s just a few flowery words. As for women with ulterior motives, it is not uncommon for them to want to rely on Mr. Lu to quickly get to the top. Unfortunately, all these were nipped in the bud by Li Li, the chairman’s special assistant. What Li Li represents is Mr. Lu’s authority. The meaning is also very clear, nepotism will not work in the Lu family. After understanding this, the young ladies kept their distance from Mr. Lu. At this time, a beautiful woman came to the door, so the front desk naturally had to guard this gate. “I don’t have an appointment, but I have an appointment with Lu Yiming.” “this…” The lady at the front desk also looked embarrassed. Agreement? What’s the meaning? It’s not right to let it go, but it’s not good not to let it go either. In the end, the receptionist called Li Li’s office. “Got it. Please bring the person to me.” Li Li had a blank expression on her face. This young Mr. Lu had just been serious for two days, but now he was back to his old ways again? Has anyone come to your door? It’s a headache to think about how I ended up being a private nanny. Soon, Cheng Xiao was taken to Li Li’s office. “Is it you?” Li Li naturally recognized Cheng Xiao. The follow up at the hospital was handled by Li Li. Naturally, Li Li knew Cheng Xiao’s background very well. After all, President Lu also had this intention when he placed himself next to Lu Yiming. But I never expected that the other party would come to me. “Hello, Miss Li, I am here…” “Mr. Lu is very busy recently. If Miss Cheng needs anything, you can tell me.” “Ms. Li misunderstood. I am here to work.” “Work?” “yes.” “Wait a moment.” Seeing that Cheng Xiao didn’t seem to be lying, Li Li pushed open the door of Lu Yiming’s office. “You’re here already?” Lu Yiming was also surprised because he had clearly left Li Li a week. Why are you so impatient? [Ding, the first stage of Cheng Xiao’s series of tasks is completed. Current sin value: 1110300. ] [Task rewards are being distributed, Japanese proficiency. 】 Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Can the system be more reliable? Proficient in Japanese? Can’t the Lu Group afford a translator? The main feature of this mission reward is that it is unreliable. “Mr. Lu?” Seeing that Lu Yiming was a little dazed, Li Li thought that Lu Yiming had done something bad again and was being picked on by someone. Just agree to the other party’s request rashly. Now you know you’re in trouble? Well, this also fits with Mr. Lu’s image as a playboy. It’s a pity. I originally thought that Mr. Lu could turn over a new leaf, but now it seems… Chapter 38 Recognition “This is your workstation. From now on, you will be Mr. Lu’s assistant. If you don’t understand anything, you can always ask me.” Half an hour later, Li Li arranged Cheng Xiao at her workstation. I really don’t understand what Mr. Lu means? There is nothing wrong with recruiting a recent college graduate to join the Lu Group, after all, Cheng Xiao also graduated from a prestigious university. However, the position of assistant is very important. You must have outstanding abilities, not just rely on your looks. Could it be that Mr. Lu wants to take advantage of the situation? That’s not right. For a girl who is so inexperienced, there is no need to use such complicated methods. Hard to guess. I simply stopped thinking about it, at least this isn’t a bad thing, it can help share a lot of my work. Li Li is now the vice president of the investment department, but she is doing the work of Lu Yiming’s secretary. Now that I finally found an assistant, I feel a lot more relaxed. “Thank you, Sister Lily.” “Don’t thank me yet. The Lu Group has very strict standards for employees. Even if you were recruited by Mr. Lu himself, you still have to meet the standards.” “I will definitely try my best.” Having put aside her worries, Cheng Xiao can devote herself to her work. For Cheng Xiao, this is a rare stage. Of course, it is not easy to gain a foothold in a large group. “Count the group’s investment projects over the years, and sort out the materials on personal handheld phone systems.” Time is tight and the task is heavy, so assigning so much work to Cheng Xiao at once is not intentionally making things difficult for her. Li Li wanted to see whether Cheng Xiao was really here to work. It’s not that the Lu Group can’t afford to keep idle people, but the attitude towards them is completely different. “Okay, Sister Lily.” Cheng Xiao immediately got into work mode. Even to the point of forgetting to eat and sleep. At noon, Lu Yiming walked out of the office door. Cheng Xiao was still working, holding a white steamed bun in her hand. To Li Li, such behavior seemed a bit pretentious. Could it be that he wanted to attract Mr. Lu’s attention? Girls nowadays really do everything they can. I originally thought that Xiao Lu would always feel distressed. But Lu Yiming just glanced at him and turned away. this… Li Li was a little confused by this situation. Except for going to the toilet once, Cheng Xiao never left her workstation. Even Li Li was not sure how long she could sustain such high intensity work. In Lu Group, Li Li is considered a typical workaholic. However, today, when I was getting ready to get off work, Cheng Xiao was still at her workstation. Mr. Lu had already left. Who was she trying to show off to by doing this? “You’re not leaving yet?” “Sister Lily, I’ve almost finished tidying up here.” “Um.” Li Li didn’t give any compliments, but just responded faintly. We’ll have to see how long we can hold on. However, Cheng Xiao’s condition was completely beyond Li Li’s expectations. The next morning, Cheng Xiao handed the sorted information to Li Li. “Finished?” Li Li finally showed a surprised expression. One person has such a heavy workload, a job that would take a week to complete, and now it’s all done within 24 hours. Looking through the sorted information. The format is very beautiful. See eye catching data at a glance. For leaders, such a standardized format is perfect. “Have you ever been in contact with it before?” “Convenience stores also need to be organized and integrated. If there is a problem with the format, I can change it.” “No, this is fine.” When did convenience stores become so competitive? I have to say, it was done perfectly. “Do you have a new understanding of the Investment Department?” Li Li asked Cheng Xiao to organize the documents not just to test her. Instead, he wanted Cheng Xiao to be able to quickly integrate into the investment department. Although this was not stated explicitly, it also gave Cheng Xiao an opportunity. “The group did not have a systematic and reasonable standard for investment before. Some of the figures were obviously not market researched. The figures were very general and felt like the answers were thought up while sitting in the office. If…” this… Not only does he integrate the documents, but he can also put forward his own suggestions, and most importantly, he hits the nail on the head. I just want to ask, how did she do it? At this moment, Li Li seemed to understand why Mr. Lu wanted to keep Cheng Xiao by his side. Talent is hard to come by. “Sister Lily, Sister Lily?!” “Um?” “Did I just say something wrong?” Li Li had been silent just now, and Cheng Xiao thought that she had said something she shouldn’t have. After all, dealing with interpersonal relationships is not Cheng Xiao’s strong point. Maybe I just offended someone without realizing it. “It’s okay. I was just thinking about things. You’re fine. You did a good job.” “Sister Lily, I also collected some information about personal handheld telephone systems.” Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What a monster. Completing the integration of the group’s previous years within 24 hours had already far exceeded Li Li’s expectations, but now even the information of personal handheld phone systems has been collected? “Tell me about it.” “We can regard the personal handheld telephone system as a supplement and extension of the fixed telephone network. The technology used is to change the last section of the fixed telephone line from cable connection to wireless connection for communication.” “You’ve also dabbled in this?” “No, I’m not very good at physics.” Modesty, this is too modest. The person standing in front of him is definitely a top student. “Sister Lily, if necessary, I can go back to school and ask the professor in this field, and maybe he can give a more pertinent answer.” “No need for now, did you stay up all night last night?” No change of clothes. Although Cheng Xiao is already stunningly beautiful without makeup, she still needs to tidy herself up. “I’m sorry, but I’ve been napping for a few hours. Don’t worry, Sister Lily, I won’t delay today’s work.” “You go back first.” Li Li waved her hand and said there was no point in trying it herself. With the professionalism and work attitude demonstrated by Cheng Xiao, the entire investment department was easily defeated. Li Li sorted out the documents and knocked on the door of Lu Yiming’s office. “The result came out so soon?” “You knew this all along?” “It’s so obvious that even a fool can see it.” “Is there?” “Let’s get down to business.” “You are a talented person. If you let me train you, you will be able to take charge of your own business in one year.” “Sister Lily, she is my assistant.” “Talent is hard to come by.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Cheng Xiao got Li Li’s recognition, which was within Lu Yiming’s expectations. However, Lu Yiming never expected that Li Li would actually snatch his person away on just the second day after taking office. Isn’t this too much? “No discussion. By the way, bring her along on this business trip.” “good.” Li Li agreed without thinking. As for whether there will be rumors in the investment department, this is not something Li Li should consider. As long as one can demonstrate his or her ability, Li Li doesn’t mind reusing him or her. Chapter 39: It is impossible to go home and inherit the family property “I don’t want to go back.” In the dormitory, Su Rongrong looked serious. “Nannan, you’ve already graduated. Didn’t we agree that mom supports you to go to college in Shanghai, but after graduation, you have to accept your family’s arrangements.” Su Rongrong’s mother tried to persuade her earnestly, but Su Rongrong remained indifferent. “Grandpa is not in good health.” “Don’t use your grandfather as an excuse. If you don’t come back, be careful that your father will come to the Magic City himself.” “I won’t leave even if I come.” “you…” Well, my daughter is completely spoiled. Although in the eyes of outsiders, Su Rongrong is a model of a lady from a noble family. However, in front of her parents, she is still the little princess who only knows how to act like a spoiled brat all day long. I hung up the phone helplessly, experiencing the reality that a girl is no longer under the control of her mother. “Will not come back.” “You said you wanted to prove yourself.” “Humph, this girl is getting more and more ignorant as she gets older.” Su Yunchang shook his head. It was better when they were little. They knew how to stick to him and were his sweet little cotton padded jacket. “I’ve been spoiled by you.” “You don’t have a pet?” “you…” “Okay, let’s think about how to explain it to the old man first.” “What are you afraid of? The old man loves Rongrong the most.” “But the old man wants to keep Rongrong by his side, you know that.” Both the grandparents and grandchildren have the same temper and are very stubborn. “What does Rongrong mean?” “He said he wanted to find a job in the Magic City.” “What about the family business? We have so many companies, why not join any of them?” The Su family is large and powerful, with many companies. Coupled with the current good policies, the development of the Su family has entered the fast lane. If Su Rongrong is capable, the family company can be chosen by this young lady at will. Besides, in the eldest branch of the Su family, there is no tradition of favoring boys over girls. As long as Su Rongrong likes it, everything can be discussed. But you shouldn’t stay in the Magic City. “Do you think what I said would be useful? Do you think Rongrong would date behind our backs?” “She dares!” Su Yunchang became anxious when he heard this. Your own little one is in love? Let’s see for ourselves which man has such courage. The last time I went to the hospital to see my dad, he seemed to have mentioned a boy, saying he was Rongrong’s classmate. “What’s wrong, Dad?” “It’s an old problem. I have a bad heart and I don’t usually pay attention to it.” “Who is that boy?” “It’s hard to explain. Anyway, Rongrong said they were just ordinary friends. But think about it, if they were just ordinary friends, why would they take them to the hospital?” What is Su Rongrong’s identity? The daughter of the eldest branch of the Su family was, in the past, the legitimate daughter of a prominent family. This identity is very valuable. If she was really cheated by some unclear man, how could the Su family let it go? “What are you going to do?” Su Yunchang could no longer sit still, so he stood up and walked out of the house. “What are you doing? Go to the Magic City and ask clearly. Prepare the car!” Mother Su: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… There’s not even any definite news yet, why are you so nervous? Well, he is definitely a daughter slave. Five hours later, a Rolls Royce drove into the campus of Magic City University. This kind of top of the line luxury car is something you’ve never even seen or heard of. Wherever he passed, the students on campus all opened their eyes wide with a look of disbelief. Who would have thought that there was such a big shot hidden among my classmates. The Rolls Royce stopped at the door of the girls’ dormitory. Not long after, School Beauty Su appeared at the dormitory door with a reluctant look on her face. It was indeed her. Various rumors about Su Rongrong have been circulating on campus. No matter how many versions there are, one thing is certain: Su Rongrong is definitely the daughter of a wealthy family. But I never expected that Su Rongrong’s family was so rich. All the boys around were beating their chests and stamping their feet. If they had known this would happen, they would have been shameless and determined to win Su Rongrong’s heart. Once I catch up with Su Rongrong, won’t my life be over? Not to mention working ten years less, you can retire right after graduation. “Dad, why are you here?” “Take our daughter home.” Facing Su Rongrong, Su Yunchang didn’t have any temper at all. “No.” “Be good. I’ve already asked my instructor. I’ve completed all the credits and can leave school anytime.” “I made it very clear that I want to work in the Magic City.” “Rongrong, you didn’t stay here for someone, did you?” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I just want to ask why my father has such an illusion? Stay for the man? What a joke. However, in Su Yunchang’s eyes, his daughter’s silence just indicated a certain problem. He immediately became furious. Which brat? I’ll break his third leg! Su Yunchang would be so angry if the little girl he raised with great effort was taken advantage of by a man. You know, in the previous life, in order to avenge Su Rongrong, Su Yunchang was determined to deal with the Lu family even if it meant both sides would suffer losses. “I’m not going back. Also, don’t think too much. I really don’t have any messy things. I just want to stay in the Magic City. I want to prove myself.” “Nannan, you are already the best in Daddy’s heart.” Su Rongrong: Here we go again, it’s always like this, you just know how to coax yourself. Su Rongrong doesn’t have high demands, she just wants to be independent. Well, others would love to have help from home. However, for Su Rongrong, family is like a bondage to herself. Ever since she was old enough to understand, Su Rongrong wanted to break free from such shackles. Although this is hypocritical. However, Su Rongrong has been working towards this goal. “Can you get in the car first?” In the end, she couldn’t persuade her father. In fact, Su Rongrong knew in her heart that now that her father was here, she might not be able to stay in this school anymore. Even if you leave, the school will leave its own legend. At that time, the way every classmate looks at me will be different. We had clearly agreed before that my dad would never interfere in my school affairs during college. “Dad, believe me, I’m really not in love.” Su Rongrong said that her mouth was dry from explaining so much, how could she get her father to believe her? “Nannan, it’s not that Daddy doesn’t believe you, but you took the person to Grandpa.” “Grandpa?” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Wait, Grandpa, Lu Yiming? ! Great, I found the source! It’s Lu Yiming again! This guy is haunting us. “Aqiu…” Lu Yiming said, the weather hasn’t changed today, why did he sneeze suddenly? “Dad, it’s nothing. Also, if I have a boyfriend, I will tell you the first time, okay?” “Nannan, Daddy is just afraid that you’ll be cheated.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, what do you mean by being cheated? This bastard Lu Yiming is even more outrageous. He almost raped himself! However, Su Rongrong would never say that. Once my father finds out, not only will it cause a business war, but I will probably never be able to escape from my parents’ sight for the rest of my life. In order to live the life she desires in the future, Su Rongrong said that she must be patient. Chapter 40: Every sip and every bite is determined by fate While Su Rongrong was trying to mediate with her father, the Lu Group had already made contact with the small time telecommunications giant NTT. After learning that Lu Group was interested in negotiating the handheld wireless telephone system project, NTT expressed its strong welcome. The two parties hit it off and officially started the process. “Come to my office with the information you have collected.” Cheng Xiao received a call from Lu Yiming, and immediately stood up and walked into Lu Yiming’s office with the documents in her hands. Seeing this scene, my colleagues were filled with envy. Mr. Lu’s office is not accessible to anyone. Last time, a vice president of the company waited outside the office for a long time. You know, in terms of positions, it is hard to say which one is more important, the company’s vice president or the investment department manager. All I can say is that Mr. Lu has Mr. Lu backing him up. At least within the group, no one dared to provoke this prince easily. Everyone can see that Mr. Lu is not here to gild his reputation, but really wants to build a career. Lu Aijun also noticed such changes. A prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold. Lu Aijun was delighted with his son’s change. As for the sudden appearance of a beautiful assistant, Lu Aijun turned a blind eye. “Mr. Lu.” “No need to be so distant.” “We are in the company now, and we need to distinguish between public and private affairs.” “So you mean, it’s different after get off work?” Cheng Xiao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Am I being teased? Her pretty face suddenly turned red. Seeing Cheng Xiao’s expression, Lu Yiming wanted to slap himself twice. this… I’m used to it and I don’t keep my mouth shut. In Lu Yiming’s heart, Cheng Xiao is the person who should never be teased. After all, in the last life… “Ahem, that’s not what I meant.” “I know.” Cheng Xiao knew it very well. Others might not be clear about it, but Cheng Xiao knew very well that the man in front of her could clearly take the opportunity to possess her. But Lu Yiming not only did not do so, he also provided himself with such a big stage. Let yourself have no worries. When Cheng Xiao went to the hospital to visit her mother yesterday, she found out that Lu Yiming had actually found a caregiver for her mother. The kind that provides 24 hour personal care. How much will this cost? Cheng Xiao didn’t even dare to think about it. In Cheng Xiao’s eyes, Lu Yiming is a good person, not at all what he appears to be. playboy? This is the misunderstanding of Lu Yiming by the world. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, I don’t know whether I should cry or laugh since I got a ‘good guy card’ from Cheng Xiao. “How much do you know about the Personal Handy Phone System?” “Mr. Lu, I went back to school to consult Professor Li. Professor Li is also very optimistic about the development trend of personal mobile communication systems in China.” “Tell me what you think.” “I?” This… Is my opinion important? Cheng Xiao collected a lot of information and combined it with the prediction given by Professor Li. Once the personal mobile communication system is promoted in the country, there will be unexpected benefits. “Yes, tell me your own opinion without involving any off field factors.” “The personal mobile communications system can change the future of domestic mobile systems.” “Is that your opinion?” Lu Yiming frowned, perhaps his expectations were too high. However, it is quite remarkable to be able to see the value of personal mobile communication systems. Cheng Xiao has just entered the industry, I can’t always… “Mr. Lu, there is one more thing, but…” “Just speak boldly.” Any other ideas? “I just want to remind Mr. Lu that the personal mobile communication system can indeed bring profits in a short period of time, but this project is not suitable for long term operation.” “Um?” “That’s right, that’s right. The path of personal mobile communication system is wrong. I’m afraid it is not in line with the future.” Cheng Xiao knew that Lu Yiming’s main product was the personal mobile communication system. Everyone in the investment department has great expectations. What I said now is undoubtedly pouring cold water on this project. I’m afraid it will cause Lu Yiming’s disgust. However, in Cheng Xiao’s opinion, there are indeed some drawbacks. “Are you trying to say that the direction of development is wrong?” “Yes, that’s what I mean, Mr. Lu. The personal mobile communication system is composed of the central office equipment RT, the air traffic controller ATC, the base station controller RP and the mobile phone PS. However, if there is no greater creativity in this direction in the future, it is very likely to be replaced.” While collecting data, Cheng Xiao also analyzed personal mobile communication systems. Combined with Professor Li’s opinions, this conclusion was reached. “Mr. Lu, I don’t have any other intentions, I just…” Seeing Lu Yiming’s silence, Cheng Xiao seemed a little flustered. Lu Yiming has helped me so much, but I am pouring cold water on him. This is so unfair. However, Cheng Xiao had no idea what Lu Yiming was really thinking. Lu Yiming: Why didn’t I see it in my previous life? Cheng Xiao’s talent in business is absolutely astonishing. Before, Li Li praised Cheng Xiao in front of Lu Yiming. Now it seems that Li Li’s praise is not enough. In the previous life, Cheng Xiao’s talent was really buried. There is no stage to display talents. “Very good, get ready, you have to go with me this time.” “Where are you going?” The topic jumped so much that Cheng Xiao couldn’t keep up for a moment. “NTT.” “This…going abroad?” Cheng Xiao was not prepared for this at all. A week ago, I was working in a convenience store and a bar, but suddenly I became a white collar worker. I actually have to go abroad. This is really… “You can rest assured about this, Auntie.” “I know. I haven’t thanked you yet.” “I just want you to have no worries, so that I can exploit your surplus labor.” “Mr. Lu…” Cheng Xiao is not a fool. It is impossible for her to say that she is not moved by what Lu Yiming has done. Although in this era, graduates from prestigious universities are very popular. However, it is not easy to be admitted to a leading private enterprise in Shanghai like the Lu Group. There are also many students sending out resumes everywhere. I have already… All these changes happened after I met Lu Yiming. How lucky I am that God let me meet him when I was most desperate. It’s like a light in the darkness. However, Cheng Xiao may never know in her entire life that in her previous life, it was Lu Yiming who extinguished the last hope of her life. Every sip and every bite is determined by God. “By the way, another suggestion, don’t wear the same clothes every day.” “I…Okay, I know.” The moment Lu Yiming said this, he regretted it. In the previous life, Cheng Xiao could have lived a wealthy life if she had married him, but he still lived frugally. Being despised by Lu Yiming, he is not presentable. But now think about it, is this Cheng Xiao’s problem? Cheng Xiao was almost crushed by her mother’s serious illness, so how could she afford to spend time on her clothes? Chapter 41 Rejection “Come with me.” “Mr. Lu?” Lu Yiming did not give Cheng Xiao any reason to refuse. Located at Plaza 66 on Nanjing Road. The only billion dollar building in Shanghai in this era. What is a billion yuan building? Monthly turnover exceeds 100 million. This number can shock countless people in today’s era. Before the construction of Hang Lung, most people in China had no idea what LV or GUCCI were. The Hermès at the entrance of the first floor is a leader among luxury goods. But for ordinary people, these have unimaginable prices. It is a synonym for luxury, and some people even choose to buy several buses just to see it. This is a topic for bragging and satisfies one’s own vanity. At this time, the Ferrari driven by Lu Yiming was parked in the VIP parking space in the underground garage. Cheng Xiao was really amazed, as if all the luxury cars in Shanghai were concentrated in this underground garage. The top of the line BMWs are the Mercedes Benz and 760LI, and the worst are the Toyota Crown. Lu Yiming’s Ferrari is naturally the most eye catching among them. “Mr. Lu?” Cheng Xiao had naturally heard of the famous Hang Lung. Since its opening, it has been extremely popular. I heard my roommates talk about it in the dormitory, and their tone was full of longing. But for Cheng Xiao, this is an unattainable dream. I never thought that one day I would set foot here. “I don’t like small life.” “ah?!” A strange sentence. Don’t you like a simple life? What does this mean? “Just because I don’t like it, no one should embarrass me this time.” “Mr. Lu, actually I…” Cheng Xiao wanted to say something else, but Lu Yiming didn’t give her a chance. I pushed open the car door and got out. The professional shopping guide at the mall, showing her standard charming smile, had already been waiting on the side. At Hang Lung, it’s not just luxury goods that have shopping guides. For the VIP customers of the mall, as long as they come to the mall, there will be mall guides to provide the most professional services. “Hello, Mr. Lu. It’s an honor to serve you.” Lu Yiming is a frequent visitor here, and it is no exaggeration to say that he spends money lavishly. “Serving her today, on a business trip.” Lu Yiming was very frugal with his words and pointed his finger at Cheng Xiao. “clear.” The shopping guide looked at Cheng Xiao with eyes full of amazement. Cheng Xiao’s bare face made the shopping guide very envious. Of course, what people envy the most is that standing next to Cheng Xiao is Young Master Lu Yiming. “I…” “Ma’am, please follow me.” Shopping guides can professionally recommend suitable brands based on customer preferences. It has a more business style, so the suitable brands are naturally first tier ones. A women’s suit and a white shirt with lace trim. “Ma’am, you can try it.” The shopping guide took Cheng Xiao to the fitting room. At this moment, Cheng Xiao felt like a puppet. I took the clothes from the salesperson and walked into the fitting room. Only then did I come to my senses. Cheng Xiao: What’s wrong with me? Why do I like this feeling? No, that’s not right, this place doesn’t belong to me. At least glanced at the price of the shirt. I subconsciously let go of the shirt and it fell to the ground. Such an inconspicuous shirt actually cost 3999? Such a sky high price made Cheng Xiao very nervous. Not to mention the price of the blazer. I’m afraid it will exceed ten thousand. This was far beyond Cheng Xiao’s ability to bear. Take a deep breath, and take another deep breath. Cheng Xiao: Cheng Xiao, is this what you want? Ask yourself. Even the changing room is covered with thick carpet. Everything looks magnificent. But… “Mr. Lu, you are so good to your girlfriend.” The shopping guide took the opportunity to get closer to Lu Yiming, full of compliments. “She is not.” “No? Oh, Mr. Lu, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to pry into your private affairs.” The shopping guide’s eyes lit up and said, wouldn’t it be better? Then with my looks, do I have a chance? In order to provide the best service to VIP customers, the shopping guides at Hang Lung Plaza are naturally top notch beauties. It’s a pity that compared with Cheng Xiao, the shopping guide in front of her was too rouge like. Of course Lu Yiming knew what the other party was thinking. No matter in the last life or now, the beautiful girls around him have never stopped. Lu Yiming naturally knew what these women wanted. In his previous life, Lu Yiming was very obsessed with this feeling, being the center of attention and surrounded by beautiful women. But, what about these? When you are about to die, aren’t you lying alone on a cold hospital bed? After starting over again in life, Lu Yiming realized how ridiculous and illusory what he had originally pursued was. He distanced himself from the other party without leaving any trace, which was a tactful way of rejecting him. The shopping guide was very perceptive and immediately knew what to do. No stalking. Once a VIP customer complains, you will lose this glamorous job. You know, the salary of a VIP shopping guide is even several times that of a white collar worker in this era. A lot of money has been spent just on the training investment and etiquette training for the mall. At this moment, the door of the fitting room was suddenly opened. “Why not change it? Don’t you like it?” Lu Yiming looked at Cheng Xiao in confusion. I didn’t change my clothes at all, and there are not even any wrinkles on them. “sorry.” Cheng Xiao returned the clothes to the shopping guide and left the store without looking back. “Cheng Xiao.” Lu Yiming chased after him. But despite Lu Yiming’s shouting, Cheng Xiao did not look back, but quickened her pace. “stop.” Lu Yiming took two quick steps and finally grabbed Cheng Xiao. “Cheng Xiao, I’ve said before that I hate living a simple life, so all the expenses this time will be borne by the company. As my assistant, you need to cooperate with me in this kind of occasion. This is also your job.” Lu Yiming knew in his heart that Cheng Xiao would never accept his kindness. That’s why I made up this reason. But for Cheng Xiao, how could she not guess such a reason? “Mr. Lu, I’m sorry, this place is not suitable for me.” “you…” Cheng Xiao was firm in her attitude: yes, this place was not suitable for her. To Cheng Xiao, this square is like a princess’s castle, extremely luxurious. Unfortunately, I am not a princess, and this is not the place for me. Cheng Xiao was even more unwilling to accept this feeling. It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but once you get used to it, it becomes really difficult to return to your own life. Cheng Xiao won’t try, nor is she willing to try. I am Cinderella, and this place is not suitable for me. “I’m sorry, Mr. Lu, if this doesn’t work, please find someone else.” Cheng Xiao sticks to her bottom line. His expression was extremely determined. Lu Yiming was a little dazed. In her previous life, Cheng Xiao listened to herself in everything. Everything is up to your own preferences. But now think about it, Cheng Xiao in the previous life only had himself in his heart. Therefore, Cheng Xiao will unconditionally support all my decisions. But now Cheng Xiao is independent, has her own ideas, and is herself… Under the guise of considering Cheng Xiao, he did not consider Cheng Xiao’s feelings. Chapter 42 Invitation “Mr. Lu, I’m sorry.” He must be angry. Although he has left Henglong, Lu Yiming’s face is not looking good. Cheng Xiao knew that Lu Yiming was doing this for her own good, but Lu Yiming had already given too much and she had nothing to give back. If Cheng Xiao accepted Lu Yiming’s kindness at this time, she would not be able to get over this hurdle. “Change your clothes tomorrow. As an assistant, this is your responsibility.” “good.” Such an order actually made Cheng Xiao feel relieved. “Mr. Lu, can you drop me off at the next station?” Although he was sitting in the only top supercar in Shanghai. However, for Cheng Xiao, the small space is no match for the freedom of riding on the bus. Perhaps, I don’t have such a fate. Lu Yiming stopped the car as instructed. After watching Cheng Xiao get off the car, he drove away. The people who were waiting for the bus at the station just now showed surprised expressions. A beautiful girl sitting in a supercar would rather take the bus? This is too incredible. But Lu Yiming saw a look of relief on Cheng Xiao’s face. This is telling myself that the two of us are not from the same world. Lu Yiming’s phone rang. Unknown number. “Hello, who is this?” “Lu boy?” The familiar voice was from Su Rongrong’s grandfather. “Grandpa?” “Hey, are you free, kid?” Su Rongrong’s grandfather was not at all shy. “have.” “I’ll treat you, my lifesaver, to dinner tonight.” “Have a meal?” “A date?” “That’s not the case.” “I’ll send you the address later. By the way, get there early. You’ve been feeling very constipated in the hospital lately.” “good.” Su Rongrong’s grandfather had obviously been holding it in for a long time. He could only study chess records by himself in the hospital and couldn’t find an opponent. Although Su Rongrong visited every day, Su Rongrong’s chess skills were too poor, so even giving her guidance was not very meaningful. After finally being discharged from the hospital, his daughter and son in law came to pick him up and the family had a good reunion. Naturally, grandpa could not forget his savior. Su Rongrong’s grandfather also realized that his daughter was on guard against Xiao Lu. Every time I mentioned it, Su Rongrong would change the subject. This time, grandpa called Lu Yiming secretly. Lu Yiming hung up the phone and composed himself. The cell phone rang with a text message. Unexpectedly, Su Rongrong’s grandfather was quite up to date with the trends and would receive text messages. Today is a small gathering. The main purpose was to celebrate the safe discharge of my father in law from the hospital. Su Yunchang did not invite any guests except Gao Yan. Gao Yan is the son in law of the Su family and is now a senior executive of the telecommunications group. He came to the Magic City to inspect a project this time and happened to meet him, so he was naturally invited. “Brother in law, please help me persuade your niece. What’s wrong with going home? Why does she insist on going out on her own? Do you think it’s necessary for a girl to be so anxious to prove herself?” “Brother, I can’t persuade you.” Gao Wei looked embarrassed and joked that his little niece usually had a lot of ideas. There’s no way to persuade him at all. If you don’t listen to your father, how can you listen to yourself? “You guys who work in the system are not the best at using reason and emotion.” “Brother, do you have any misunderstanding about me?” They try to reason with it, appeal to its emotions, and joke, this is not the real system. “No matter what, you have to help me persuade her.” “I’ll try my best.” This task is thankless. No wonder they want to treat me to a meal. If I had known this would happen, I shouldn’t have come. After all, Su Yunchang is the patriarch of the Su family, and it may not be a good thing for him to interfere too much. Xijiao Hotel Reception Building. This is the place in Shanghai that specifically receives foreign guests. Whenever leaders from various countries visited Shanghai, they would stay here if they passed through Shanghai. Ordinary people can’t book a seat at all, it is semi public. Of course, it is not a difficult task for the Su family. Lu Yiming’s Ferrari was still subject to inspection when it entered the Xijiao Hotel. They were allowed to pass only after inspection. In his previous life, no matter how dissolute Lu Yiming was, he had to behave himself here. God knows you might accidentally offend a leader. At this time, Su Rongrong was staying with her grandfather. He didn’t respond at all to his uncle’s persuasion. Su Rongrong understood that as the leader of Telecom, her uncle was very eloquent. He can turn white into black if he opens his mouth. Since you can’t win the argument, just keep quiet. Be a standard lady. No matter which direction the wind blows, you are as solid as a rock. Well, Gao Yan also smiled bitterly. I’ve been talking to her until my lips are sore, but my niece just won’t say a word. Even if I have great abilities, it’s useless. He glanced at Su Yunchang and felt helpless. “Nannan, your uncle just said so much, you should also think about it carefully, your parents are old.” Su Yunchang is still making his final effort. “Nannan…” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I can’t hear anything. “Alas, the tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop, the son wants to take care of his parents but they are no longer there.” “dad.” “Are you finally willing to speak?” “Dad, you are blackmailing me morally.” “I didn’t. I have children to take care of me. What’s wrong with that?” “You…Grandpa, don’t you care about your son in law?” Well, what is Su Rongrong best at? That’s right, it’s acting like a spoiled child. My grandfather is most fond of this kind of thing. My grandfather, who was originally sitting in the main seat and watching the show with a smile on his face, had to go down on stage himself. “Ahem, Xiao Su…” “Dad, I’m just worried about Nannan.” In the past, whenever his father in law spoke, Su Yunchang would listen, but this time it was different, because his daughter was his treasure. Even if the old man asked, I couldn’t surrender. “Rongrong, your father is right. The tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop. The son wants to take care of his parents but they are no longer there.” “Grandpa?!” Su Rongrong didn’t expect that grandpa would also… Unfortunately, before Su Yunchang could feel proud for long, his grandfather changed the subject. “That’s true, but I’m older by comparison. I don’t have many years left. I also want Rongrong to be able to sit by my side and enjoy her company.” this… Su Yunchang was completely dumbfounded, feeling like he had shot himself in the foot. The old man is waiting for me here. Speaking of age, who here can compare with the old man? “Grandpa, don’t worry, Rongrong will definitely be filial to you.” Su Rongrong smiled happily. Grandpa was really powerful. He shut his father up with just one sentence. Well, now that the old man has spoken, Su Yunchang’s plan has completely failed. “Grandpa, let’s eat. The doctor said it’s best for you to eat small and frequent meals now.” Su Rongrong looked very proud. She had her grandfather as her backer, so she was safe. “No hurry, I have a guest.” “guest?” Su Yunchang and Su Rongrong were both confused. It was supposed to be a family dinner, so why did the old man invite guests? This doesn’t seem to be in line with the old man’s personality. Chapter 43 Gift Giving “Grandpa, did you invite guests?” Su Rongrong looked curious. You know, since my grandmother passed away, my grandfather has rarely socialized, but he has regular gatherings with old colleagues. However, grandpa obviously will not invite old colleagues to today’s dinner. Who else could it be? Even Su Rongrong couldn’t figure it out. Wait, that can’t be… Su Rongrong suddenly had a bad feeling. “Grandpa, you wouldn’t…” Before I could finish my words, there was a knock on the door. “Boss Su, your guest is here.” Su Rongrong looked up and was completely dumbfounded. It was indeed him! Lu Yiming, you really dare to come! “Look, my guests are here.” Grandpa had a smile on his face, but Su Rongrong was shocked. “Why should we invite him? Grandpa, this is our family dinner.” He didn’t give Lu Yiming any face at all. Yes, considering what Lu Yiming had done to her, it was already a miracle that Su Rongrong could face it calmly. “Why are you saying that? Xiao Lu is my savior after all.” “Dad, is this the young man who brought you to the hospital?” Unlike Su Rongrong, Su Yunchang was quite grateful to Lu Yiming. I also asked the hospital afterwards. If this young man had not sent the old man to the hospital in time, the consequences would have been disastrous. “She’s Rongrong’s classmate. Isn’t that a coincidence?” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What a coincidence! The goddess of Soochow University was almost forced to utter sweet words. What kind of medicine did Lu Yiming give his grandfather? it turns out… “Thank you for your invitation, old man. By the way, this is the chessboard I found these days. I know you like it, so I’ll just give you something to show my appreciation.” Well, Lu Yiming came prepared. After receiving the call from the old man, Lu Yiming did not rush to the restaurant, but stepped on the gas and went back home. Lu Yiming remembered that his father collected a set of chess equipment. A genuine antique. “Oh, I’d like to take a closer look then.” For chess lovers, chess sets are their favorite. The old man also collected a set, which was considered a pretty good piece, but it was incomparable to the chess sets that Lu Yiming brought today. “Is this a carnelian?” The old man was a connoisseur and could tell at a glance that the chess piece was extraordinary. “Old man, they all say that chess pieces come from Yunnan, and the ones from Yongchang are the best.” “Yes, it is Yongchang.” The so called chess pieces refer to Go, and Yongchang is today’s Baoshan. The Go pieces produced there are called “Yongzi” and have a history of more than 500 years. It was also rated as the best chess piece. The texture is as fine and glutinous as jade, yet extremely hard, as if it were made from natural jade. It has a simple appearance, is restrained and dignified, is round to the touch, and is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is a universally recognized chess product from ancient times to the present. What’s more, the chess sets sent by Lu Yiming are the best among the permanent ones, and have a history of hundreds of years. The value of this set of chess equipment is difficult to estimate. “Oh, that’s good, but what a pity.” “Why is this, old man?” “The gift is too expensive. I can’t afford it. Xiao Lu, have you forgotten what I used to do?” The old man used to be a cadre in the procuratorate. It is impossible that he would be corrupted when he is so old. “Old man, they say a precious sword is given to a hero, but if I keep this chess set here, it will just be covered in dust.” “Don’t try to fool me, kid. Your chess skills are far superior to mine. You must keep this chess set. It is a rare treasure.” The old man clearly wouldn’t accept it. “Old man, why don’t you put it here? When I come to play chess next time, we can use this set. You can’t ask me to bring it back and forth, it’s really troublesome.” “this…” It has to be said that Lu Yiming understands the old man’s thoughts. Since it can’t be sent out, just put it aside for now. Anyway, apart from the old man, no one else plays chess. “Dad, since the young man said so, just accept it. If it doesn’t work, I’ll buy it for you.” Seeing that the old man really liked it, Su Yunchang had to come forward. But the young man in front of me is not ordinary. In an ordinary family, who can afford to give away such valuable chess sets? “Thank you for your bravery, young man.” After Lu Yiming, Su Yunchang’s gaze remained on Lu Yiming. He has an extraordinary demeanor and is not at all restrained by the luxury here. It seems that he also comes from a famous family. I don’t know which family he is from. He was able to gain the old man’s approval and took the initiative to invite him to dinner. It is not easy to find such a young generation. “Hello, Mr. Su.” “You know me?” “My father is Lu Aijun.” “Oh, it turns out to be the young master of the Lu family. What a coincidence.” Su Yunchang looked Lu Yiming up and down. Lu Group was the leading private enterprise in Shanghai, so Su Yunchang had naturally heard of it. However, in Su Yunchang’s eyes, the Lu Group lacks foundation. Unexpectedly, Lu Aijun raised a pretty good son. Of course, Su Yunchang didn’t know what Lu Yiming had done to his daughter. If I knew, I would probably roll up my sleeves and beat him up, not to mention eating. “Master Lu also likes playing chess?” “Uncle Su, just call me Xiao Lu.” “Haha, that’s fine.” While Su Yunchang was examining Lu Yiming, Lu Yiming was also examining him. The leader of a century old family. Naturally different. Especially in that turbulent era, many aristocratic families lost their inheritance. For those who can stay, it is not easy. Although Lu Yiming did not have a good impression of the aristocratic families. Just like the Five Surnames and Seven Families back then, how many people’s paths to advancement were cut off. Although the aristocratic families today cannot be compared with those back then, they still cannot be underestimated. In his previous life, Lu Yiming fought endlessly with the aristocratic families and used every possible means, but even so, it only ended in a draw. This shows the heritage and strength of these aristocratic families. And the Su family is the best among them. As for the man in front of him, the current head of the family, his methods, scheming, vision, and abilities are all top notch. That was a painful lesson for Lu Yiming. Of course, I deserved to die in my previous life. I just don’t know what kind of sparks will be created when we meet again in this life. But for Su Yunchang, he didn’t think so much. What Su Yunchang was most worried about at this moment was whether Lu Yiming’s appearance here was a coincidence or intentional. Also, is there anything going on between him and his daughter? Su Yunchang knew his daughter well. As soon as Lu Yiming came in, Su Rongrong’s face changed. You know, Su Rongrong is definitely not a child from an ordinary family. She is very skilled in cultivating her Qi, and she can easily let her own daughter break her Qi. What exactly happened between these two people? Su Rongrong is Su Yunchang’s Achilles’ heel, but… “Xiao Lu, after hearing what my father in law said, I feel a little itchy. It’s still early, how about playing a game?” Su Yunchang is also good at Go, but unlike the old man, Go is not a so called interest for Su Yunchang. Rather, it is a way to cultivate one’s character and observe one’s opponents. Of course, among the younger generation, there are only a handful of people who are fortunate enough to play chess with Su Yunchang. Chapter 44: Testing The two men took up their positions and found that the agate chess pieces really felt great in the hand. This was a fair contest, and Su Yunchang did not underestimate Lu Yiming just because he was young. This may be the mentality of a real boss, respecting every one of his opponents. Su Yunchang’s chess and sword skills were unconventional and he adopted a wild approach from the very beginning. Different from the old man who is very strict. This also made Lu Yiming feel a little pressure. As for the old man, he was watching the fight with a smile on his face. He had played chess with his son in law more than once, and each time he was exhausted, which gave Lu Yiming a chance to have a taste of the fun. Flying at a wide angle. Fixed pattern. Various means emerge one after another. Within half an hour, the two sides were fighting back and forth, neither of them giving in. It has to be said that Su Yunchang’s chess moves are obscure and difficult to understand, and often unexpected. Lu Yiming’s careful planning failed many times. Generally speaking, at this time, the players tend to be restless and irritable. This is also true when facing professional chess players. But to Su Yunchang’s surprise, Lu Yiming became more calm at this moment. This young man is quite interesting. While Lu Yiming responded calmly, he also set up a bigger plan. One hour. The two were very fast and never had to think for a long time. Unlike the old man, he doesn’t have to think twice before doing anything. Perhaps this has something to do with the businessman himself. In business, you should always move forward rather than looking back. At this time, Su Yunchang held the black piece in his hand, but he was unable to make a move and fell into the first long period of thinking since the start of the game. The outcome of the chess game is unknown, but Su Yunchang knows that if he continues, he will be defeated miserably. “Huh… Heroes are born young.” Seeing that he was powerless to turn the situation around, Su Yunchang simply gave up and surrendered. Such opponents are often the most terrifying. Not everyone can afford to lose. “Thank you.” “Young man, please take a seat.” Be able to take it and put it down. Since he admitted defeat, Su Yunchang no longer dwelled on the chess game. Lu Yiming would like to learn from this kind of free and easy personality. “Dad, this isn’t a loss yet.” “You, your desire to win is too strong. It’s not good.” Su Yunchang smiled and patted the back of his daughter’s hand. It can be seen that the girl is worried that she will lose face. But for Su Yunchang, what kind of scene has he not seen? “Xiao Lu is also from Magic City University?” Unexpectedly, Gao Yan started chatting with Lu Yiming at this time. “Yes, but it should be considered graduation.” “Oh? You joined your own company?” “I originally wanted to start a business, but it’s better to keep my feet on the ground first.” “Haha, young people really know when to advance and when to retreat. Not long ago, someone from your Lu Group contacted me.” “Unfortunately, it is me.” “To be honest, it’s not too much for me to call you Mr. Lu.” Changing the name means treating Lu Yiming as an equal. “Of course, you’re welcome, Mr. Gao.” “I heard that Lu Corporation is interested in entering the communications field?” “The pie is big, and there are always people who want a piece of it.” “It’s a good idea, but in the country, the communications sector is strictly controlled.” “That’s why I came to seek cooperation with Mr. Gao.” “I had no interest in it before, but now, I am very interested.” Gao Wei seemed to have changed his mind. If it were someone else, they might think it was a good thing. However, Lu Yiming is not a newcomer, and there are many twists and turns in the business world. It was obvious that there seemed to be something wrong with the goodwill shown by Gao Yan at this time. “If Mr. Gao is really interested, how about I come to visit you in person someday?” “Boss Lu, you are trying to catch me off guard.” Gao Wei smiled slightly. Young people are quite difficult to deal with. Originally, I wanted to get a feel for the depth of the Lu Group. To be honest, Gao Yan’s life was indeed not easy. Although he was young and had already taken the position of vice president of telecommunications, the pressure that came with it was still enough to make Gao Wei feel suffocated. Superiors have been assessing telecommunications indicators. And this aspect is exactly what Gao Wei is in charge of. Just as Lu Yiming analyzed, Telecom has taken many measures to respond, but with little success. In the field of communications, it cannot compete with China Mobile and China Unicom. This is very passive for Gao Yan. Desperate to find a way out. And this time, the Lu Group suddenly came knocking on the door, which might really be a good opportunity for Gao Yan. However, Gao Wei will not and does not want to give up easily. Relying on the Lu Group to break through the siege is a question of one’s own ability. That’s why Gao Yan rejected Lu’s kindness, but also wanted to find out Lu’s hidden card. This is how the current scene came about. Take the initiative to talk to Lu Yiming. In Gao Yan’s opinion, Lu Yiming is young and will make mistakes if he talks too much. But I didn’t expect that this kid was so tight lipped. He didn’t look like a rookie at all. “Okay, then I’ll be waiting for Mr. Lu then.” Since he couldn’t get any answers, Gao Yan stopped worrying about it. “Okay, today we are celebrating the old man’s discharge from the hospital, so we won’t talk about work.” Seeing this, Su Yunchang, who was standing by, also smiled and spoke out to stop them. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… As expected of an old fox, they coordinated perfectly with each other. Lu Yiming could see that Mr. Gao had just acted on impulse. However, Su Yunchang is indeed an old fox, and he actually got the benefit when he spoke. As for Su Rongrong at this time, she frowned secretly. Although I don’t like Lu Yiming, he is a guest invited by my grandfather after all, and it is not right to bully him like this. “Lu Yiming, let me toast you a glass. Thank you for saving grandpa. We are even now.” At this moment, Su Rongrong finally let go. This also means that Su Rongrong will no longer pursue Lu Yiming’s previous rudeness to her. This is the limit of what Su Rongrong can do. “I said, I still owe you an explanation, and I will definitely give it to you.” “No need.” Subtext: From now on, we will go our separate ways and never see each other again. This may be the biggest concession Su Rongrong can make. “What kind of charades are you two talking about?” “Dad, young people’s business.” “Yes, uncle, this is between me and Su Rongrong.” Su Yunchang: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… This is what I’m worried about, okay? My daughter has grown up and has her own little secrets. Unlike before, when I would tell myself all the secrets. I feel a little lost. The meal was a great success for both the host and the guests. Lu Yiming behaved quite well. An hour later, Lu Yiming said goodbye. I have accepted the invitation and performed well. Now it is time to leave. After all, I am an outsider to the Su family. “I’ll take you there.” Unexpectedly, Su Rongrong volunteered. Su Yunchang saw all this and became secretly nervous. Could it be that my daughter stayed in the Magic City because of Lu Yiming? Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What does that have to do with anything? I just wanted to remind Lu Yiming not to appear in front of me in the future. Chapter 45: Painstaking Efforts “Brother in law, what do you think?” After Lu Yiming left, Su Yunchang’s expression suddenly became serious. “The Lu family has a successor.” Gao Wei drank the wine in his glass. I just tried several times, but the other party avoided it cleverly. I have to admit that Lu Yiming is indeed extraordinary. Although he is young, he behaves very maturely. It even gave Gao Yan an illusion. “By the way, Lu wants to enter the communications field?” “I think so. However, I have heard that Lu’s Group has been expanding its business recently. It recently announced that it would enter the real estate industry.” This is also the reason why Gao Wei is not optimistic about the Lu Group. Although Gao Wei admitted that Lu Group’s revenue and net profit have always been healthy. The foundation of foreign trade business is also difficult to shake. However, it seems unrealistic to want to achieve success in multiple fields. “Whether it’s real estate or communications, they are all money burning projects. With the current financial resources of the Lu Group, it’s probably difficult to support them.” “So, you think it’s a smokescreen?” “That’s what I thought at first, but after meeting Mr. Lu today, I seem to be a little shaken.” I can’t guess it. I really can’t guess it. An opponent who doesn’t play by the rules is really a headache. Gao Yan found that he had no idea what Lu Yiming was doing. This is the most terrifying thing. The big boss himself has come into contact with many of them, not to mention that the Su family is a wealthy and powerful family. Gao Yan has extraordinary insight, but this young man… “Yeah, I don’t understand it either.” “Second brother?” this… Su Yunchang’s words shocked Gao Yan even more. It was understandable that I couldn’t tell the other party’s strength, but my second brother was the head of the Su family. Controls a huge business empire. What kind of person hasn’t you seen, second brother? Even the leaders have met with my second brother. If this evaluation of a young man at this moment were to get out, Lu Yiming would become famous. “Huh, don’t think too much. What I’m worried about now is Nannan. She seems to treat Xiao Lu a little differently.” “Brother, you are young.” “Nonsense, she’s not your daughter, so of course you don’t care.” High: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, just pretend you didn’t say anything. As for Su Rongrong, she had already sent Lu Yiming to the door. “Lu Yiming, you are pretending to be stupid and don’t understand.” Su Rongrong’s tone was not good. He was the one who should have avoided suspicion the most. Wouldn’t it be awkward for them to meet? After all, these two have seen everything they should and shouldn’t have seen. . . “What’s the meaning?” Lu Yiming decided to continue playing dumb. “You shouldn’t have come.” “This is my grandfather’s invitation.” “It’s my grandpa!” “Yes, he is your grandfather now. No one knows what will happen in the future.” “You… Unless I’m blind, otherwise…” “It’s not good to curse yourself.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I’m so mad at myself. Forget it, Lu Yiming is shameless, and this is not the first time I have experienced this. “Why did Uncle come to the Magic City?” “This is my family’s business.” “I’ll take you back.” In fact, Lu Yiming had already guessed that Su Yunchang would appear in the Magic City. In the previous life, he had brought disaster to Su Rongrong, causing Su Yunchang to become angry and take action, and even taking Su Rongrong back to the Su family. And this incident became known to everyone. Su Rongrong spent her entire life, but in the business world, Su Rongrong showed great talent. Of course, this is all later. Indicators, Lu Yiming was very clear that Su Rongrong had always wanted to prove herself. This will not change. Therefore, Lu Yiming guessed that after Su Rongrong graduated, she did not want to return to the Su family, but was determined to make a name for herself in the Magic City. Su Yunchang naturally didn’t want his daughter to suffer, so he wanted to take Su Rongrong back. I didn’t expect that Lu Yiming’s guess was almost right. “It’s none of your business.” “You can’t say that. The Magic City’s pie is so small. If the Su family insists on squeezing in, we might become rivals.” “Lu Yiming, you are scared.” “Yes, I am indeed afraid. I am afraid that I won’t be able to do it and I won’t be able to hate myself.” “You… are shameless.” For some reason, Lu Yiming’s eyes made Su Rongrong feel uneasy. The scumbag is indeed a scumbag, he speaks sweet words casually. “Leave these words to Cheng Xiao.” “Are you jealous?” “you…” Well, Su Rongrong really wanted to teach him a lesson for this shameless expression. Suppress your anger. If you don’t agree, there’s no need to talk too much. “Goodbye, I won’t see you off!” “I said I would give you an explanation.” “roll!” You’re bringing up something that’s not relevant. You’re actually being blackmailed. It was this bastard who was rude to me, but… Okay, Lu Yiming, just wait for yourself. When the time comes, you will have the chance to cry. Su Rongrong made up her mind secretly. This further strengthened Su Rongrong’s determination to stay in the Magic City. Seeing Su Rongrong leave without looking back. Lu Yiming smiled. Well, I was really stimulated by myself. This is a good thing, as it further strengthened Su Rongrong’s determination to stay. At least I won’t return to Su Province. Although it’s not far away, I can’t see him for long. Su Rongrong could never have imagined that Lu Yiming would go to such great lengths to keep her. Starting his Ferrari, Lu Yiming drove out of the Xijiao Hotel. And at this moment, at the Lu family. “Brat! Where is this brat?!” Inside the Lu family villa, Lu Aijun slammed the table so hard that it made a deafening noise. Zhang Qian on the side didn’t dare to say a word. “Calm down.” “Calm down? What the hell? That was a chessboard I bought at a huge price, and I haven’t even started playing with it yet, and this brat has ruined it!” During this period, Go became popular among the upper class circles in Shanghai. Although Lu Aijun knew nothing about Go. However, since everyone is researching it, Lu Aijun naturally cannot fall behind. Otherwise, wouldn’t it confirm the Lu family’s status as a nouveau riche? In order to practice chess, Lu Aijun not only hired a teacher, but also spent a lot of money to buy a set of fine antique chess sets. Fine products are rare. It was because he was quite busy during that time, so after buying the chess sets, Lu Aijun kept them in his study. As a result, I felt like setting up a game tonight to suit the occasion. The chess pieces disappeared. After asking, I found out that it was actually taken away by my own kid! This is a waste of money. How could this not make Lu Aijun angry? It is said that love cannot be purchased with money. I originally thought that the brat was a prodigal son who has returned. The company has performed well during this period. The gradually improving good mood was instantly messed up. This brat has only known how to make himself angry since he was born. This time, I must break that brat’s legs. At this time, the roar of Ferrari was heard. Lu Aijun: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… This brat dares to come back? “Where’s the feather duster? Find it for me!” Chapter 46: Chaos “Don’t run, little brat!” “Yiming, run away!” Lu Yiming had just parked the car when he saw his father and Aunt Zhang rushing out one after another. this… One tells himself to run, the other tells himself to stop. Look at the feather duster in dad’s hand. You’d be a fool not to run! In the courtyard of the Lu family villa, a thrilling chase was taking place. “Stop, you little bastard!” “Put your things down first.” “I won’t hit you!” “Only a fool would believe that.” Lu Yiming said that he was ignorant when he was a child and he had suffered this kind of loss many times. There was a lot of chaos. Lu Aijun didn’t stop until he had no more strength to chase. He then stopped and panted. “Say, where’s my chessboard?” “Give it away.” “I…” The answer is justified. This made Lu Aijun want to pick up the feather duster and continue, but unfortunately, due to his age, his physical strength was not as good as before. “Dad, don’t be anxious. Don’t you want to ask me who I gave it to?” “Nonsense, do you even need to ask? What else can you do besides ruining the family? Tell me, is it that little girl again?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Indeed, no one knows a son better than his father. Bah, wait, I have something serious to do this time. “Su family, the father in law of the head of the Su family.” “Hmm? Su family, which Su family?” “Who else could it be? The one from Su Province.” Upon hearing this, Lu Aijun calmed down instantly. When did my son become related to the Su family? The Su family is so powerful that the Lu Group cannot contend with it. Even Lu Aijun has to admit this. Compared to the century old families, the Lu family has just started. But the Su family is different. They have already overcome the curse that wealth cannot last for more than three generations. “Tell me, what’s going on?” “Let me catch my breath first.” “Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly.” “No, I just came back and you chased me around the yard and beat me up. Now you won’t let me catch my breath?” “You deserve it. You’ve done so many terrible things in the past!” Well, what he said made sense and Lu Yiming couldn’t refute it. “Dad, it’s just a set of chess equipment. Is it necessary to mobilize so many people?” “A set of chess sets? Do you know how many connections your father had to rely on just to get this set of chess sets?” Originally, this set of chess equipment was going to be auctioned this fall. By then, the value of this set of chess equipment will probably double. Lu Aijun asked a lot of people for help, and was able to get it in advance, and he also owed a lot of favors to people. What happened is that before I even touched it, it was given away by this unfilial son. This matter would make anyone anxious. “Dad, you are such a bad chess player, you shouldn’t…” “Hey!” Upon hearing this, Lu Aijun immediately picked up the feather duster with new and old grudges in mind. Fortunately, this time Aunt Zhang was quick witted and snatched it away. “That’s enough. We’ve made enough noise. We can’t let people laugh at us.” Well, it’s rare for Aunt Zhang to ask for help, so Lu Aijun has to give her this face, otherwise, he will have to sleep in the guest room again for the next few days. “Get in here.” Lu Aijun pointed at Lu Yiming and walked into the villa angrily. “Aunt Zhang, thank you.” “Go and apologize quickly. You know your father’s temper. He responds to soft words rather than hard ones. Just say a few nice words and the matter will be over.” Aunt Zhang gave me a reminder and then followed me into the room. “Let’s talk about it later. I’ll go make you some soup.” It must be said that Aunt Zhang played a significant role in this family. It’s a pity that Lu Yiming didn’t treat the other party well in his previous life. Perhaps, I will never be able to get over that hurdle. After living his life again, Lu Yiming finally understood that he could not blame his father entirely for his parents’ divorce. There are some things that are not for a father to decide. Fortunately, I still had time to remedy the situation. The father and son walked into the study one after another. “Tell me, what’s going on?” Lu Aijun still had a sour face. “My classmate, Su Rongrong, is the eldest daughter of the Su family.” “Hey, you’re still after women!” After going around in circles, I’m back to the starting point. “No, although there are reasons for this, it is just a coincidence at best.” Lu Yiming briefly told Su Yunchang about his accident and his visit to the Magic City. Of course, everything that happened between him and Su Rongrong was naturally concealed. If only dad knew there was such an exciting part. I guess I won’t be able to escape his clutches tonight. “So, you are still the benefactor of the Su family?” As expected of a businessman, he quickly thought of the key point. “I guess so.” “The handheld wireless phone system you reported last time is also related to the Su family?” “The vice president in charge of telecommunications is the son in law of the Su family.” “Is there a chance?” “uncertain.” “What’s the meaning?” Now it was Lu Aijun’s turn to be confused. His son saved the father in law of the head of the Su family. In this case, shouldn’t cooperation be a natural thing? Could it be that the Su family has other ideas? “Dad, there are too many twists and turns in this century old family.” “Internal conflict?” “Maybe. At the banquet today, the son in law of the Su family did mention the possibility of cooperation, but I smoothed it over.” “Why?” “It shouldn’t be this smooth. I’m afraid there’s something fishy going on.” This is how business is, there is only eternal profit. He thought that he had saved Su Rongrong’s grandfather’s life, so the Su family should be grateful and give up their own interests. Lu Yiming is not that stupid. If it were really that simple, the Su family, a century old wealthy family, would not have survived to this day. “It’s good to be cautious.” Lu Aijun was very satisfied with his son’s prudence. “By the way, I heard that we are going to conduct an inspection soon?” “It’s settled. We’ll leave in the next two days.” “Are you sure?” “Dad, I know what you’re worried about.” “Hey, brat, why don’t you tell me something.” The change in his son was beyond Lu Aijun’s expectations. This kind of momentum of having everything under control is something I cannot achieve. Unexpectedly, once this brat got serious, he really made me look at him in a new light. “Dad, what you are worried about is the real estate business. The Lu Group has just announced its entry into the market in a high profile manner. It is in urgent need of capital turnover. You are worried that there will be problems with the capital chain.” “That’s right. Right now, real estate projects are indeed the best time, but we only have so much money. Although the bank has given us policies, once they tighten, we will be extremely passive. So, I won’t support you too much.” Lu Aijun is never blindly arrogant and is always cautious. Of course, this is crucial to the development of the Lu Group. “I’m giving this to you as a surprise, don’t worry.” Lu Yiming is full of confidence. I have a calculation in mind and the initial investment is not much. Otherwise, Lu Yiming would not have kept his eye on this project. “I won’t interfere. Now let’s talk about the chess equipment. I spent 3 million. What do you say?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I have no money, but I have my life. Typical dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water. Seeing his son’s rogue appearance, Lu Aijun completely lost his temper. Chapter 47 Discussions “Morning, Mr. Lu.” “morning.” After parking the car, Lu Yiming yawned. Serious mental breakdown. A handsome face with some dark circles under the eyes. “Mr. Lu, you must take good rest and don’t work too hard.” It was the same security guard from last time, but this time he became much more attentive. Ever since I found out about Lu Yiming’s identity, I’ve been trying to lick his ass. There’s no way, it’s not easy to support a family. “Tell me, isn’t Mr. Lu too tired? After all, he just graduated not long ago, and the burden on him is too heavy.” “What the hell, you think everyone is the same as you. The happiness of rich people is beyond your imagination.” The captain sneered. Xiao Lu always made good use of his limited time. Do you know what tossing is? “What’s the point of having money? At 11pm, the TV station will be on the big color screen, but there’s still nothing to watch.” “TV? Can you be more ambitious and know what a nightclub is?” “What the hell is that?” “A man’s paradise.” Well, Lu Yiming didn’t hear this conversation. It was still a man’s paradise and a nightclub. I was so arrogant last night. Given my father’s temper, would he let me go so easily? He immediately took out the spare chessboard at home and was ready to teach himself a lesson. In Lu Aijun’s own words, with his chess skills, it would be easy for him to defeat the uneducated boy. result… It only took Lu Yiming 20 minutes to teach his father what it meant that an arrogant army will be defeated. As a result, Lu Aijun still wasn’t convinced. He dragged Lu Yiming until the middle of the night. After losing more than 10 games in a row, my face turned green. If Aunt Zhang hadn’t really been unable to help it, she would have forced Lu Aijun to go back to his room to sleep. I guess Lu Aijun can stay up all night. But this made Lu Yiming suffer. At the beginning, Lu Yiming did want to dampen his father’s arrogance. But even a strong man can’t stand this. In the end, Lu Yiming had already given in, but his father still didn’t live up to his expectations. Thinking of this, Lu Yiming couldn’t help but shook his head. With this level, any chess equipment is useless. As soon as he walked out of the elevator, Lu Yiming thought about going into the tea room to make himself a cup of coffee. The treatment that Lu Group gives to its employees is first class. Each floor has its own separate staff lounge. Tea and coffee are available. In this era, few companies can achieve such humanistic management. Before work starts, many colleagues get together to chat, which can be regarded as a way to relax before the intense work. However, the content of the conversation was somewhat… “Did you see it today?” “What did you see?” “The temptation of professional attire.” “Who is it? Can you please stop praising me so much and even tempting me?” “That’s because you didn’t see it.” “I saw it too. Wow, I didn’t expect that with this figure and this appearance, it’s simply…” “Are you talking about Vice President Li? You are so bold.” “Don’t worry, Vice President Li is indeed good looking, but compared to her, he is still a little bit inferior.” “Who are you talking about?” “Who else could it be? Mr. Lu’s newly hired assistant.” “Cheng Xiao?” “Yes, that’s her.” “No way, I know Cheng Xiao, she always wears the same thing.” “Yes, she is good looking, but she is just as good as Vice President Li.” “You know nothing. Today I’m wearing a business suit and eye catching black stockings. Tsk tsk, it’s really…” When I think of the amazing scene when I saw Cheng Xiao today. The male colleague immediately started to have wild thoughts. It’s love at first sight. I fell in love instantly. “It’s not that outrageous.” “You’ll see it soon, don’t drool.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Sure enough, when men get together, the topic always revolves around women. I was like this when I was in school. Now that I am a white collar worker and an elite in society, I still can’t get rid of this side of me. “You think, Cheng Xiao is dressed like this, right…” “Shh, keep your voice down. Anyway, I’m going to try to pursue you no matter what.” “You’re asking for your life. She’s Mr. Lu’s assistant. Mr. Lu hired her personally.” “After my observation over the past two days, I don’t think so. Cheng Xiao is a very simple girl.” “Why don’t we give it a try? Whoever succeeds will get lunch for a month.” “That’s fine…” It is absolutely foolish to pursue a woman for a bet. “Ahem…” Just as the few people were talking more and more outrageous. A cough was heard. “Mr. Lu.” “Hiss… Mr. Lu, why are you here?” Seeing Lu Yiming, they instantly became well behaved. “Go on.” “No, Mr. Lu, we were wrong.” Who would have thought that when we guys get together to brag, we would run into Mr. Lu. Also, why did this person come to pour the coffee himself? “I failed the assessment at the end of the month, haha…” “Understood, Mr. Lu, let’s get to work now.” Several people looked at each other and immediately left the lounge. “Have you heard enough?” Although it was an empty rest room, Lu Yiming seemed to be talking to himself in the air. “I don’t have the habit of eavesdropping.” “Vice President Li, it seems you’ve been here longer than I have.” “Mr. Lu is joking.” Li Li curled her lips and wanted to ask, how did Lu Yiming discover her? “The Yangtze River’s back waves push the front waves forward. Sister Lili, do you feel the pressure?” In the comparison just now, Cheng Xiao clearly has the upper hand. “Boss Lu, are you trying to sow discord among your colleagues?” “ha.” Lu Yiming smiled and said, “Okay, with Li Li’s identity and status, she would not vent her anger on Cheng Xiao.” I was just testing it out. Looking at Lu Yiming’s departing back, Li Li looked helpless. I didn’t expect him to be so petty. “You little brat, you’re protecting me so well, and you still say you don’t have any ideas.” Li Li poured herself a glass of hot milk. However, today’s Cheng Xiao really made me shine. The professional attire is perfect. The slender waist that can be held in one hand, coupled with the temptation of black stockings, is simply extremely seductive. No wonder those young people can’t control themselves. Just observed it myself. Wherever Cheng Xiao goes, there are always many stealing eyes on her. Should I remind myself? That’s not right. There’s nothing wrong with professional attire. Originally, Li Li wanted to remind Lu Yiming, after all, Cheng Xiao was Mr. Lu’s assistant. But now it seems that the real owner is not in a hurry. “Cheng Xiao, come to my office for a moment.” Lu Yiming returned to the office with coffee. The first thing is to call Cheng Xiao over. After Cheng Xiao left yesterday, Lu Yiming thought about it carefully and realized that he indeed did not take Cheng Xiao’s feelings into consideration. For Cheng Xiao, such consumption is not something she can understand. However, when Cheng Xiao walked into the office. Lu Yiming’s eyes never left her… Chapter 48 The Temptation of Professional Attire The temptation of professional attire. I’m not talking nonsense. Cheng Xiao’s charm is truly limitless as she can wear professional attire to such a stunning degree. “Mr. Lu, I…” Cheng Xiao really felt a little awkward. After leaving last night, Cheng Xiao went to Qipu Road. Shirt 40, suit 120. At Hang Lung, Cheng Xiao bought a professional suit worth less than 20,000 yuan for 160 yuan. Yes, the fabric is indeed a bit worse. But when worn by Cheng Xiao, it is completely different. It only cost 160 yuan, and Cheng Xiao considered it for a long time before she gritted her teeth and bought it. As for these black stockings, it’s the first time in my life. Cheng Xiao prepared herself mentally for a long time. But now I still feel a little regretful. After arriving at the company, many colleagues looked at me closely. There are indeed some… “I just had a meeting with Vice President Li and we will leave tomorrow.” “So soon?” Cheng Xiao didn’t expect that Mr. Lu would be so impatient. “It’s not good to be remembered by others.” Although Lu Yiming had advanced the time a lot, once the butterfly’s wings flapped, who knew what accidents would happen. “Understood. I’ll go get ready.” As Lu Yiming’s assistant, Cheng Xiao naturally had to make a plan. In a short period of time, Cheng Xiao has mastered simple basic conversations. A top student is indeed a top student, and you can’t use common sense to infer what he is. “No need, just stay in the office today and I can remind you anytime.” Cheng Xiao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Staying in the office? It seems… Well, Lu Yiming admitted that he just didn’t want those colleagues with dirty intentions to look at Cheng Xiao any more. I clearly warned myself to stay away from Cheng Xiao, but it seems that I still underestimated her charm. “Ahem, be careful in the company from now on. Those guys even bet on chasing you.” Lu Yiming is not a gossipy person, but this time, he reminded Cheng Xiao for the first time. The latter reacted immediately. “Mr. Lu, I’m sorry. I won’t wear it like this next time.” It’s all because of the black silk. “It’s their impure intentions, it has nothing to do with you.” Lu Yiming did not look up, for fear that he would not be able to control his eyes. Men always appreciate beautiful things. Lu Yiming’s appearance really gave Cheng Xiao a great sense of security. Indeed, he is different. That night in the classroom, I was ready to sacrifice myself. Cheng Xiao knows how charming she is. But Lu Yiming just held back. Although it was a misunderstanding, Lu Yiming’s performance definitely surprised Cheng Xiao. A playboy and a dandy, the world doesn’t understand Lu Yiming at all. Cheng Xiao stayed in Lu Yiming’s office all day. By doing this, Lu Yiming is also sending a clear signal to the outside world. Not everyone can care about your assistant. At noon, he even accompanied Cheng Xiao to the staff cafeteria for the first time. At this moment, none of the male colleagues dared to look at Cheng Xiao. A typical domineering boss character. As for Cheng Xiao, she also seemed to enjoy the feeling of being carefully cared for. But I keep reminding myself in my heart. Lu Yiming is not someone I can think about. The gap between the two sides is too big, and Cheng Xiao is already very satisfied to be able to get along like this. “I’ll pick you up tomorrow.” “No, I can take the bus.” “You need to arrive two hours in advance. The bus schedule is uncertain. This is a serious matter and there is no room for any accidents.” “I… okay.” In the end, Cheng Xiao no longer insisted. Yes, Lu Yiming was right. Everyone in the investment department was busy for a long time preparing for this trip. No accidents can be caused by any negligence. During this period, Cheng Xiao has moved out of the dormitory. My mother and I usually rent a house in an alley in Hongkou. A second floor attic in an old style alley. The area is only 7 square meters. It is said that every inch of land in Shanghai is worth a lot of money. It is said that there is gold everywhere in Shanghai. But what is the real situation? Many local residents of Shanghai, including three generations of a family, live in such old style alleys. This is the most true portrayal. The old houses in Hongkou have inconvenient transportation. The only advantage is that the rent here is cheap. For Cheng Xiao, it is also the best choice. Cheng Xiao’s mother spent most of the year in the hospital. The seven square meters of space is more than enough for the mother and daughter. Early in the morning, when Lu Yiming’s Ferrari drove into this old fashioned road. It instantly attracted the attention of countless people. It’s rare to see four wheels normally, let alone a supercar like this. The child’s eyes were filled with curiosity. All the residents coming in and out would take a second look. The value of a Ferrari can buy half of the alley. Cheng Xiao hurried out of the house and got into the car amid everyone’s envious eyes. I’m afraid it won’t be long before I become famous in the alley. However, for some old ladies who hate the rich, slanderous rumors will be overwhelming. Although Cheng Xiao never cares about what others say about her. but… “I didn’t think it through.” “Mr. Lu, I…” “It’s not a formal occasion, just call me by my name. We are still old classmates.” Lu Yiming admires Cheng Xiao’s strength from the bottom of his heart. So, how deeply did I hurt Cheng Xiao in my previous life that made this girl leave in despair? It clearly has the character of a weed that cannot be trampled to death or crushed. But he eventually left his hometown and was never heard from again. “Mr. Lu? Sorry, Lu Yiming?” Seeing that Lu Yiming was taking a long time to start the car, Cheng Xiao couldn’t help but feel a little confused. “Think of something, fasten your seat belts.” Lu Yiming withdrew his thoughts. “Did you have breakfast? I cooked an extra egg.” Cheng Xiao hesitated for a long time, and finally took out the eggs she had prepared. “One moment, I don’t have any hands here.” Lu Yiming originally just said it as a joke. As a result, Cheng Xiao actually put the freshly peeled egg next to Lu Yiming’s mouth. This scene is really… I remember that Cheng Xiao was like this too when we just got married in the previous life. I originally thought that Lu Yiming was everything to me, but in the end… “Be careful of the heat.” Lu Yiming swallowed the egg in one gulp. What does mixed feelings mean? Why has my mentality changed? “Ahem…” “What’s wrong?” “It seems like I’m choking.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Cheng Xiao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Hongqiao Airport, everyone is here. A Boeing 737 has stopped on the runway. “What’s this?” “The CD player will be useful later.” After passing security check, Lu Yiming handed Cheng Xiao the CD player he had prepared long ago. Does this scene seem a little too intimate in the eyes of others? What is the story that the overbearing president and his assistant have to tell? Sure enough, the sketchbooks are all based on reality. Mr. Lu really takes everything into consideration. Chapter 49: Still a Romantic “Mr. Lu, what are you doing?” “High altitudes can easily cause tinnitus, don’t you know that?” “Of course I know that.” Li Li curled her lips and said, “The key point is that what you, Lu Yiming, did was too obvious.” It seems that other colleagues are just tools. “I just…” “Okay, don’t explain, Mr. Lu, we are not blind.” Faced with Li Li’s teasing, Lu Yiming was speechless. I clearly want to stay away from Cheng Xiao, but I always care about her inadvertently. After boarding the plane, Lu Yiming and Li Li were of course arranged to sit in the business class, while the others were in the economy class at the back. “Let’s discuss it.” “Mr. Lu, that’s too much.” “Well?” “You don’t want me to switch places with your assistant, do you?” Li Li looked alert. This means even you have to sacrifice yourself. “Cheng Xiao is afraid of heights.” “How do you know that?” Li Li looked skeptical. Even if Cheng Xiao was afraid of heights, it seemed like she hadn’t told anyone about it. I just want to ask you, Lu Yiming, how do you know so much about it? This is too weird. “I just noticed that I was taking deep breaths the whole time. You know, once people get nervous, they can’t control their subconscious behavior.” “After all, you just want me to change my position?” “Of course not.” Well, even if Lu Yiming is a scumbag, he is not to this extent. Lu Yiming would never do such a thing as sacrificing Li Li in this lifetime. “Let me discuss this with you. I’ll go to the back later. Please help take care of Cheng Xiao. Of course, don’t let anyone get away with it. Just say I need to discuss the details.” “real?” Li Li’s heart was in turmoil at this moment. For Cheng Xiao, she was willing to put herself in a difficult position? Li Li knew very well what kind of person Lu Yiming was. Lu Yiming enjoyed all the enjoyments that a playboy should have. This time, he was uncharacteristically willing to endure the hardship himself. Is this too exaggerated? “Is that okay? One sentence.” “no problem.” “Thank you.” After getting Li Li’s reply, Lu Yiming stood up and walked towards the economy class. “Tsk, I never realized you’re such a romantic.” It was as if I had gotten to know Lu Yiming all over again. Not to mention, Lu Yiming’s performance during this period really overturned Li Li’s previous cognition. At this time, in the economy class, Cheng Xiao did seem a little nervous. He gripped the seat handle tightly, so hard that even the joints of his fingers turned white. “Assistant Cheng, what’s wrong with you?” “No… I’m fine.” Even when he spoke, his voice trembled slightly. Except for Li Li and Cheng Xiao, all the people on this business trip are men. In this regard, I am naturally a bit careless. At this moment, Lu Yiming came in front of them. “Mr. Lu, what are you doing?” Seeing Lu Yiming coming, several people subconsciously stood up. As a result, Lu Yiming waved his hand to stop him. “Change position.” “What?” These words were directed to Li Li. “I still have some data to check. Please go to my seat, which is next to Vice President Li.” “But… this doesn’t comply with regulations.” Cheng Xiao was about to refuse, but Lu Yiming didn’t give her a chance. “Hurry up, we’re about to take off.” “Okay, I understand.” Cheng Xiao stood up and made way, while Lu Yiming sat down without any hesitation. “What? Do you want me to ask the stewardess to show you the way?” “Uh, no.” Cheng Xiaoxiao left quickly, but she felt a little resentful towards Lu Yiming in her heart. I was already very nervous, but he still wanted to change his position. This guy is really… Watching Cheng Xiao leave, Lu Yiming’s mouth curled up subconsciously. “Mr. Lu, what data do you need?” The opportunity to show off in front of his leader had come, and he immediately took out his laptop, wanting to demonstrate his professionalism in front of Lu Yiming. result… “I’m tired.” “Well?” We said we were here to check the data, so I wanted to ask, Mr. Lu, what are you doing? Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Damn economy class, there’s nowhere to put my long legs. Fortunately, the flight only takes 3 hours and I can still endure it. Lu Yiming closed his eyes and rested, completely ignoring everyone’s surprise. Now, even a fool would know the reason. Sure enough, there is a story between Mr. Lu and Assistant Cheng that must be told. Several male compatriots who were eager to try immediately stopped. Just kidding, no matter how beautiful Assistant Cheng is, I have to give up this idea. Well, are you competing with Mr. Lu for a woman? Wouldn’t you be tired of living? As for Cheng Xiao at this time, she walked into the business class with some trepidation. The changes are not that big. That is, the location is a bit more spacious. I really don’t understand why the ticket price is more than twice as expensive. To show that the rich are different? Cheng Xiao really couldn’t understand this. “Mr. Li, Mr. Lu…” “I know. There are still some data to check. Please take a seat.” Li Li pointed at Lu Yiming’s position and said. Looking at Cheng Xiao’s cautious appearance, I really felt a sense of pity for her. I didn’t expect that Lu Yiming liked this kind of thing. But I also admire Cheng Xiao very much. Although there are still shortcomings in many aspects, Cheng Xiao is talented and works hard enough. There is a lot of room for development in the future. If you train well, you may be able to stand on your own. “nervous?” “Yes… a little bit.” At this time, the plane had already started taxiing on the runway. Cheng Xiao was completely tense. “It’s okay. Airplanes are the safest means of transportation.” “I…I know, I’m just…” “Do you know why business car tickets are so expensive?” “Better enjoyment?” “It is one of the most important points. This part is the most stable part of the plane, so the turbulence will be much less.” This is also the reason why Lu Yiming wanted to switch positions with Cheng Xiao. Due to the tight schedule, the available economy class seats were concentrated at the tail of the plane. If she encounters air currents, won’t Cheng Xiao be scared to tears? “It’s okay. I’ll drink something after takeoff. It will help me calm down. I used to do the same.” “Mr. Li is also afraid of heights?” “There’s nothing strange about this. As long as we are human, we have something we are afraid of.” Li Li held Cheng Xiao’s right hand. Tsk tsk, my palms are sweating. I didn’t expect that Mr. Lu was such a careful observer. Cheng Xiao wanted to say something, but the sudden strong push on her back scared her so much that she closed her eyes. It wasn’t until ten minutes later that the plane finally stabilized. “Two beers, thank you.” Li Li asked the flight attendant for beer. “Try it, it works really well.” “good.” To relieve tension. Cheng Xiao drank the beer in his hand without hesitation. only… Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Damn it, why did I forget to remind her that Cheng Xiao can drink so much… No matter how much I planned, I could never have expected this to happen. Chapter 50: Nothing a Cold Shower Can’t Fix Only after the 737 landed on the runway did Lu Yiming open his eyes. The two people in the seats had a hard time along the way. Mr. Lu sat in the aisle seat, with his eyes closed to rest the whole way, and he didn’t even dare to go to the toilet. He held it in for so long that his face turned blue. The most painful thing is to watch the toilet not being usable as soon as the plane lands. “What’s going on?” Two painful faces, as if they had been abused. “It’s okay. It’s fine. Everything is fine.” Smiling on the surface, but miserable inside. It would have been so great to have such a beautiful lady as my companion along the way. Now Mr. Lu replaced Assistant Cheng with an excuse. I felt so wronged along the way that I didn’t even dare to breathe, for fear of disturbing Mr. Lu’s rest. It turns out that the distance from heaven to hell is the distance from business class to economy class. “Boss Lu, shall we wait for Vice President Li and Assistant Cheng?” “Business class passengers will be the first to disembark.” “Yes, I forgot about that.” Look at Mr. Lu, he would rather endure this grievance for Assistant Cheng. It seems like this is true love. However, after they got off the plane, they couldn’t find Vice President Li and Assistant Cheng for a long time. The airport is so small, could they have gotten lost? As a result, Lu Yiming’s cell phone rang. “What? Okay, I get it.” After hanging up the phone, Lu Yiming looked a little… How should I put it, the main theme is to make people laugh and cry. “Mr. Lu, what is this?” “You guys wait first.” Lu Yiming walked to the other side, turned two corners, and finally saw the embarrassed Li Li. This face full of resentment is really… “Laugh if you want to.” Li Li said unhappily. Who would have thought that Cheng Xiao’s alcohol tolerance was so low that she got drunk after just one glass of beer. The key is that you just need to sleep peacefully. After getting drunk, Cheng Xiao no longer looks like the ice goddess she once was. Along the way, Li Li used all her energy to comfort Cheng Xiao. Sometimes crying, sometimes laughing. Thinking about the stunned expressions of the business class elites, Li Li was speechless. It’s definitely a dark history. “Why did you let her drink?” Lu Yiming also looked helpless. In his previous life, Lu Yiming had experienced how terrifying a drunk Cheng Xiao could be. After being together with Lu Yiming, Cheng Xiao naturally needed to cooperate with Lu Yiming to attend certain occasions. However, a glass of cocktail completely broke down Cheng Xiao’s defenses. That was definitely a memory that Lu Yiming could not bear to look back on. It gives me a headache just thinking about it now. From then on, Lu Yiming never let Cheng Xiao drink a drop of alcohol again. But Lu Yiming might not know. After leaving him, Cheng Xiao actually developed a bad habit of drinking. However, Lu Yiming might never know all this. As for this moment, Cheng Xiao, who was slumped on the ground, was still mumbling to himself, and it seemed that he had not yet fully awakened. “You didn’t say she doesn’t drink.” Li Li retorted that she had good intentions and that being a little tipsy could indeed make people forget their tension temporarily. But being drunk and crazy is completely different. With the help of the flight attendant, I finally managed to get Cheng Xiao down. Who did I offend? Not only do I have to serve you, Mr. Lu, but now I even have to be responsible for your little assistant, Lu Yiming? “Ahem…” Well, I indeed didn’t explain it clearly, what else could Lu Yiming do? He picked up Cheng Xiao who was slumped on the ground. “What are you standing there for? Follow me.” Not to mention, Lu Yiming is quite strong, much better than those weak men who are powerless. Lu Yiming held Cheng Xiao in his arms, followed by Vice President Li, and appeared in front of everyone in a dignified manner. “this?” “Mr. Lu, why don’t we lend a hand? Don’t get tired.” “Get lost.” I originally wanted to flatter a horse, but ended up flattering the horse’s leg. Are you kidding? I want you to lend a hand? This is Cheng Xiao. To some extent, she is now Mr. Lu’s exclusive concubine. Please think before you speak next time. “Where’s the car?” “Mr. Lu, the car was arranged by Assistant Cheng.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Don’t you know?” “Yes, of course. Mr. Lu, please wait a moment. We will find it right away.” There was another round of chaos, but we finally got on the bus. “Mr. Lu, according to our schedule, we have to go to NTT’s factory for inspection first.” “To the hotel.” “But Mr. Lu, we have already made an appointment.” “Change your schedule.” “this…” Well, now it turns out that our young President Lu loves beauty more than the kingdom. “How about I go first? It’s not good to make them wait. This is the most important aspect of our lives. We can’t let them feel neglected. Can you come after you settle Cheng Xiao?” In this situation, it was Li Li who stood up. “Thanks for your hard work.” In fact, visiting a factory is just a process. All the necessary parameters are in Lu Yiming’s mind. I have already had it planned out, I am just pretending. Otherwise, it would appear too special and might arouse other people’s suspicion. It would be nice if Li Li was willing to do it. “Well, Mr. Lu, we are already in the car.” “I know.” “How about you put Assistant Cheng down first?” There’s no need to hold it like this in the car. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… NTT has prepared the best local hotels. As for Lu Yiming, he sent Cheng Xiao to the executive suite where he was supposed to live. “You guys think, will Mr. Lu…” A look that only men can understand. Watching Mr. Lu leave, if I can’t seize this opportunity, am I still a man? “hehe…” Before he finished speaking, he heard a sneer in his ears. Oh, I forgot Vice President Li is still in the car. The few people who were grinning lasciviously just now immediately changed their expressions. “What are you thinking? Mr. Lu is not that kind of person.” “That’s right, why are you so dirty minded?” “Shut up and work!” Li Li sneered, and everyone started thinking about gossip. “It’s so hot…” As for at this moment in the hotel suite, Cheng Xiao kept tearing off her coat. It’s hot. It’s really hot. Not cool at all. I watched Cheng Xiao exposed. Lu Yiming could only use a quilt to cover up his exposed beauty. After struggling for a long time, Cheng Xiao finally calmed down. Only then did Lu Yiming breathe a sigh of relief. He poured himself a glass of whiskey and drank it all in one gulp. After all, I am a normal man. Besides, in the previous life, every inch of Cheng Xiao’s skin was so familiar to Lu Yiming. This is really a big test for Lu Yiming’s patience. He loosened his tie and swallowed. “You seduced me!” Looking at Cheng Xiao sleeping on the bed, defenseless. Lu Yiming took off his coat directly and walked into the bathroom! Is there anything better than a cold shower to cool you down? There’s nothing I can do about it. This is the debt I owed in my previous life. Chapter 51: Tied into a Zongzi The passionate scenes from his previous life kept flashing through Lu Yiming’s mind. Although Cheng Xiao was just used as a stand in for Su Rongrong. However, those passions really happened. Lu Yiming knew every inch of Cheng Xiao’s skin and the special features hidden in every part of it. “Huh… who the hell said cold showers are useful?” The cold water continued to stimulate Lu Yiming, but the problem was that it seemed to be of no use. At this moment, the bathroom door was suddenly pushed open. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… It’s so exciting! I never thought that Cheng Xiao would have such a promiscuous side after drinking. It seems that I didn’t know her well enough in my previous life. It’s a pity that fantasy is full and reality is skinny. “vomit…” Cheng Xiao didn’t even look in the direction of the bathroom. “vomit…” A glass of beer, is that necessary? Lu Yiming really wanted to ask, how should he get out now? It’s also a five star hotel and a suite. Life was indeed not going well in every aspect. Cheng Xiao, lying on the side, had blocked all the roads. If Lu Yiming wanted to leave, he could only step over it. The most important thing is that the bathrobe is still on the other side. Unreasonable, bad review! “Cheng Xiao?” He called out softly, and seeing that Cheng Xiao did not respond, Lu Yiming took a cautious step forward. Lu Yiming’s only thought at this moment was to leave quickly, lest Cheng Xiao wake up and he be unable to defend himself. However, he didn’t expect that when he stepped towards Cheng Xiao, the latter had already opened his eyes, but then quickly closed them out of fright. At this moment, Cheng Xiao felt a buzzing sound in her head. Severe headache, accompanied by confusion. What should I do? In this situation, should I continue to pretend to be unconscious or run away? Will Lu Yiming go into a beastly state? Just as Cheng Xiao was daydreaming, Lu Yiming finally put on his bathrobe. Turned around and came to Cheng Xiao. Cheng Xiao’s eyelashes kept trembling. My breathing also became rapid. No, he won’t do anything to himself. Why did you drink? “trouble.” Cheng Xiao, who was lost in thought, heard Lu Yiming’s complaints. The next second, Lu Yiming picked up Cheng Xiao and walked towards the bed. Cheng Xiao: What does he want to do? Could it be that… No, absolutely not. I can’t just do this without thinking clearly… Cheng Xiao was about to resist when she felt herself flying into the air. Before she could even scream, she fell headfirst onto the soft bed. “Hmm…” My stomach was churning. Cheng Xiao: Lu Yiming, do you still have any humanity? Can’t you see that you are sad? Sure enough, a gentle and domineering president only appears in novels. In real life, haha… Just as he was about to turn over, the next second, Lu Yiming had already picked up the quilt beside him and tied him up like a dumpling. “It’s finally quiet.” Cheng Xiao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Looking at his masterpiece, Lu Yiming expressed great satisfaction. At least this way, the spring light won’t be exposed. Poor Cheng Xiaoxiao, she didn’t even have the strength to struggle at this moment. I could only complain about Lu Yiming’s violent behavior in my heart. Little do they know how tempting they are to the opposite sex when they are drunk. If it were any other man, even if he didn’t have the guts to steal, he would still have to do something with her before he could get away with it. After dealing with Cheng Xiao, Lu Yiming closed the bedroom door and went to the living room. He poured himself a glass of whiskey and then called Li Li’s cell phone. “Mr. Lu.” “How did the tour go?” “Under their arrangement, I visited the factory.” NTT’s factory is located on the outskirts of the city, but the area of our small town is only this small, so it’s not that far away, even though it’s on the outskirts of the city. There is a huge difference between the factory and the domestic environment. In Li Li’s words, it has really opened her eyes. Compared with her normal life, Li Li had to admit that there was a huge gap in domestic factories, technology, management and everything else. Here, every link has a sophisticated management plan. The division of labor and assembly are all very reasonable, and the personnel and costs are controlled to the optimal level. “Remember, what you see now is what they want to show you.” Yes, people do strive for perfection in their daily lives, but there are also many cases of failure in later generations. What Lu Yiming wanted to know most was the other party’s production limit. “Mr. Lu, there is one more thing.” Li Li was a little hesitant, not knowing whether she should report to Lu Yiming. “Go ahead.” “NTT didn’t seem to care about our arrival.” The person who received me was just a deputy director and the head of the sales department. Even if he was a deputy director, he was just a middle level manager in the structure of NTT. This made Li Li very unhappy. NTT looked down on the Lu Group. “It’s just the arrogance in my bones.” Lu Yiming sneered when he heard this. NTT really thinks it’s a big deal. “Come back.” “return?” Li Li was stunned again. this… What’s the meaning? “Mr. Lu, there will be a welcome party for NTT in the evening.” The docking itinerary has been sent to everyone. As the team leader this time, it is impossible for Xiao Lu not to know about it. “We are not the ones who are anxious now. Just find an excuse and decline the welcome party tonight.” “Okay, I understand.” Although she was not clear about Lu Yiming’s intentions, Li Li still faithfully carried out Lu Yiming’s orders. After visiting the factory, Li Li had a conversation with the other party’s deputy minister. He also expressed regret for not being able to attend the welcome party. But the attitude is quite firm. The deputy project director of NTT did not expect the other party to behave like this and was stunned for a moment. His face looked a little ugly at the time. After sending everyone to the car, he quickly dialed his own cell phone, saying something incoherently. Half an hour later, Li Li and her group returned to the hotel. After arranging for everyone to stay, Li Li knocked on Lu Yiming’s room door. “I thought you were inconvenient right now.” Li Li seemed a little surprised to see Lu Yiming open the door immediately. “What? In your mind, am I already equated with a pervert?” “That’s about right.” Li Li shrugged. In her opinion, Lu Yiming would never miss this golden opportunity. To be honest, Li Li went through a fierce psychological struggle when she left the drunk Cheng Xiao to Lu Yiming’s care. After all, Cheng Xiao trusts herself, so she will get drunk. Whenever something goes wrong, I will be held responsible. But in the end, Li Li chose to believe Lu Yiming once. Now it seems that I made the right bet. “Where are the people?” “Sleeping in the room, a drunkard.” Lu Yiming curled his lips and poured Li Li a glass of whiskey. “Have a drink?” “Want to get me drunk?” “Come on, you can drink better than I can, and I don’t want to get uncomfortable.” “He’s quite self aware.” Li Li took the wine glass with a smile. She didn’t know why, but during this period of time, she began to be willing to trust Lu Yiming. Such a change was a bit sudden, and Li Li didn’t know why it happened. Chapter 52: Sitting on the Diaoyutai “Mr. Lu, we don’t have much time left. The latest news from the country shows that someone has already realized the handheld wireless phone system.” “Butterfly wings.” “What?” “Ahem, it’s just a metaphor.” Lu Yiming understood that it was because of his radicalism that the news leaked out. Although most people have not yet realized the business opportunities therein. But wealth is originally in the hands of a small number of people, isn’t it? If someone intervenes, it will indeed bring unexpected possibilities. “We are anxious, but NTT is even more anxious than us.” “this…” Li Li had the nerve to doubt. Logically speaking, NTT could be sold at a good price now, after all, NTT held the patent for the handheld wireless telephone system. This is the trump card they hold. “no?” “It’s really hard to agree.” Li Li does not hide anything and when it comes to questioning, she is ruthless. “Look at this.” Lu Yiming seemed to have expected this and took out a document from his briefcase. “This is?” “You’ll know after you see it.” Li Li took the report with half belief and half doubt. After opening it, she looked at Lu Yiming in surprise. “There is no need to doubt the authenticity of the report.” “Where did this come from?” This thing can be said to be NTT’s trade secret. This report shows the most core data of NTT. As a non listed company, there is no need to disclose this data. this… “Don’t look at me like that, and don’t overthink it. Corporate espionage is only suitable for novels.” “But this report?” “There is a profession called business broker. It cost me a million dollars, and I am still heartbroken.” “hiss…” I can only say that Mr. Lu is really generous. Li Li no longer doubted, but watched patiently. “Has NTT’s finances deteriorated to this extent?” “There’s a saying, it’s just a superficial appearance.” Yes, NTT’s factory can indeed give people a sense of strong strength. Unfortunately, NTT’s finances have now reached the point of exhaustion. “Mr. Lu, I don’t understand. If this is true, and we take the initiative to come to them, it should be a once in a lifetime opportunity for NTT. But they only sent a vice minister. Is there a different voice within NTT?” “There are no problems internally, NTT is not listed, and power is only in the hands of the top management.” “But why would they do this?” “To strive for greater benefits, to put it bluntly, is to ask for a bigger profit. This time, it was just a play directed and performed by myself.” Lu Yiming sneered and drank the whiskey in his hand in one gulp. Not to mention, the stronger the liquor, the clearer its ability to make your brain. “You mean, we leave them alone? But what if we end up making things worse?” After all, the news from the country is not optimistic. Once other rivals interfere, it will be very troublesome for the Lu Group. The most important point is that the investment department is seriously short of funds. Entering the real estate industry has drained too much of the group’s funds. Even if Lu Aijun wanted to support his son, he probably didn’t have the strength to do so. Besides, all those competing companies are well funded. “Not really. The efficiency of domestic affairs is very slow.” Lu Yiming is full of confidence in this regard. There are only a few companies in China that have the vision and capabilities to focus on handheld wireless telephone systems. Yes, we do have a large amount of funds on hand. It’s a pity that the infighting among these groups is too serious. Even if a direction is proposed, it will take at least two months to discuss the results and then implement and take action. But given NTT’s dire financial situation, they would be lucky if they can survive a month. Although the boss of NTT is greedy, unfortunately, he does not have a big heart. He is a person who is unwilling to take risks. This is the best opportunity for Lu Yiming. In the previous life, the NTT Group was forced into a desperate situation. When the company was facing life and death, it had no choice but to mortgage the patent of the handheld wireless telephone system, which only lasted for half a year. In the end, I got a ready made bargain. “If that’s the case, we can really leave each other alone.” “Not only that, but starting tomorrow, you should contact several mobile phone manufacturers, starting with Sharp.” “Understood.” Li Li immediately understood Lu Yiming’s intention. This is what it means to outlast each other. Let them mess up. Seeing that Li Li had understood his intention, Lu Yiming smiled coldly. Today’s NTT is far from being the world’s leading telecommunications company group as it will be in the future. Now is the best time for you to make the best decision. If I don’t take action now, I will probably regret it in the future. As for NTT at this time. “Bang!” A loud slap. The president slapped the deputy minister in the face, leaving five bright red finger marks. This slap was merciless. “sorry!” After receiving a loud slap in the face, the deputy minister did not make any excuses, but became even more respectful. Well, this is a perverted culture of daily life. Not only does he stand there to get beaten, but he also has to put his face close to the beating. As a middle level employee of the company, being able to be whipped by the president might give him a perverted sense of honor. “Is that what you told me? You promised that the other party would be eager to cooperate, but now their attitude is completely the opposite.” “I’m sorry, President. It’s my mistake.” “A mistake?! Your mistake could ruin the entire company!” “I’m sorry! But I still hope that the president can give me some time. I believe…” “Bullshit! Bang…” Another slap in the face. Believe it or not, the company won’t last until the end of the month. Although the handheld wireless telephone system is a huge change in the current mobile communications field. However, the population base of Xiaori is small. Even if it is recognized by the people, it will be very difficult to promote it. The company has worked hard for a long time. But it still cannot satisfy people. Until now, it is still a stage where income is not enough to cover expenses. If it continues to lose money, the company will be completely ruined. The president was furious. How could he have believed these idiots so easily? Make a mess of things. “Where is the representative of Lu’s Group?” “Still in the hotel.” “Send someone to keep an eye on it. Tell me immediately if there’s any movement!” “clear!” Yes, it is just as Lu Yiming analyzed. The president of NTT is both naive and playful. It is not surprising that an amateur leads professionals. The pressure from the chairman has been transmitted to every senior executive of NTT. Before you raise any objections, you should first consider whether you can still hold on to your position. Chapter 53: Cheng Xiao is too embarrassed to see anyone “I’m going to make plans for tomorrow now.” “etc.” “Mr. Lu, is there anything else?” Li Li was a little confused. Shouldn’t she be speeding up the planning now? After all, we can’t let NTT notice anything unusual, otherwise, this show will be in vain. Unexpectedly, Lu Yiming pointed to his room. What’s the meaning?! Li Li: Hey, I treat you as my partner, but you’re always thinking about sleeping with me? “Mr. Lu, I’m warning you…” “What are you thinking about? Let’s see how Cheng Xiao is doing.” “Well…” “Wait.” It flashed and disappeared, and it seemed that if he stayed for one more second, he would see a mockery on Lu Yiming’s face. I am too embarrassed to see anyone. “ah…” “Be careful. If you break something, you’ll have to pay for it.” During this time, I accidentally bumped into the coffee table. Can’t these junk from daily life have a normal height? Li Li gritted her teeth and kept cursing Lu Yiming in her heart. You are teasing yourself and hoping to embarrass yourself, right? Li Li opened the door and burst out laughing. I was feeling a little unhappy at first, but when I saw Cheng Xiao, who was tied up like a dumpling, still trying to move and get out of the quilt . This scene is really too joyful. “Sister Lily…” Cheng Xiao looked back alertly, and saw the result. Cheng Xiao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I just want to ask, how can I face people in the future? “Don’t move, be careful not to hurt yourself.” Li Li quickly put away her smile and went forward to help. In no time, he untied Cheng Xiao. “You didn’t suffer any loss, did you?” “Don’t mention it.” You know what hungover people fear most? It’s not a blackout, but everything that happened while I was drunk is clearly engraved in my mind. Unfortunately, Cheng Xiao is such a person. So, I was carried back to the room by Lu Yiming like a princess, I struggled to take off my coat, my private parts were exposed, and I broke into the bathroom while Lu Yiming was taking a shower… Uh, no, I didn’t break into the bathroom, I just wanted to vomit. But the problem is, Cheng Xiao remembers all of this clearly. I just want to ask, how should I face Lu Yiming? Cheng Xiao didn’t expect that she would be so exaggerated after getting drunk. “It seems that I didn’t suffer any loss.” Although Cheng Xiao’s clothes were disheveled at this time. However, no important parts were exposed and no hickeys were given on the neck. But it was the snow white skin that tempted Li Li to take a closer look. Yes, as a woman, I have to admire Cheng Xiao’s beauty. It is simply the Creator’s preference. Unexpectedly, under such circumstances, Lu Yiming could still hold himself together. Is this still the dandy boy that I know? “Sister Lily, I’m sorry I’ve caused trouble for everyone.” “I’m not in any trouble, but Mr. Lu said.” “Don’t mention him.” Cheng Xiao felt embarrassed when she thought of Lu Yiming. Everything that just happened was like a movie, playing over and over in my mind. I can’t forget it even if I want to. “Do you have any extra changes of clothes?” “Yes, and there is a spare shirt.” “shirt?” Although shirts are suitable for business negotiations, this trip also includes many other social events. Wouldn’t the whole trip be business like? You know, Cheng Xiao is Lu Yiming’s assistant. To some extent, she represents Lu Yiming’s face. “Oh, forget it. It looks like I can’t wear this coat anymore.” Look at the little suit that Cheng Xiao is wearing, it is wrinkled like a seaweed belt. The fabrics of street goods are like this, who can be blamed? After all, she is a great beauty. No matter how good her conditions are, she still needs to be packaged. “I’m sorry, Sister Lily, I…” “Okay, I brought a lot, I’ll send it to you later.” “It’s too much trouble.” “Remember, you are representing the Lu Group now. If it were you, you would be free to wear whatever you want, but not now.” “I…” Cheng Xiao stopped talking, which was considered as her agreement. “Get up, how long do you want to lie on Mr. Lu’s bed?” “No, no, I…I just…” Cheng Xiao hurriedly got out of bed, fearing that she was too slow and would be misunderstood by Li Li. Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… No matter how talented he is, he is still just a rookie in the workplace. He was just joking, and look how scared Cheng Xiao is. “Go to the bathroom and get cleaned up.” “good.” Cheng Xiao immediately went into the bathroom. Her panicked look made Li Li couldn’t help but curl up the corners of her mouth. Cheng Xiao hid in the bathroom and saw her red face through the dressing mirror. The blush on her face lingered and her heartbeat was still super fast. What’s wrong with me? Obviously nothing should have happened, but… Why do I feel strange? This is the place where Lu Yiming took a shower before. Although it blocks out important parts. But, Lu Yiming’s figure, abdominal muscles, and lines. When dressed, he looks thin; when undressed, he looks fat, and the flesh is muscular. “Pah…” Cheng Xiao slapped herself in the face. Cheng Xiao: What are you thinking about?! “Cheng Xiao? Are you okay?” Li Li’s inquiring voice came from outside the bathroom. “No…it’s okay. I’m washing my face.” He quickly turned on the faucet in front of him and splashed cold water on his face. After drinking the cold tap water, Cheng Xiao finally calmed down. If possible, Cheng Xiao really didn’t want to leave the bathroom. When Cheng Xiao thought about facing Lu Yiming soon, she felt hopeless. “Are you ready? We need to have a meeting later.” “Okay, okay.” Li Li’s urging forced Cheng Xiao to face reality. Finally, I mustered up the courage and opened the bathroom door. “Why do you look like a drowned rat?” Li Li shook her head. This little boy looked so pitiful. If he really walked out of Lu Yiming’s room like this, no matter who saw him, he would probably be unable to defend himself. “Sister Lily, I…” Li Li went in and took out a towel, and helped Cheng Xiao wipe the water droplets off her hair. After packing up, Cheng Xiao had to follow Li Li out even if she was reluctant. Cheng Xiao: It’s over, it’s over. I’m about to meet Mr. Lu. What should I say? For Cheng Xiao, this was definitely a social death scene. “Huh?” He lowered his head and followed behind Li Li. result… “Where are the people?” There was no sign of Lu Yiming in the room. Left? As a result, a note was seen on the coffee table. [An hour later, a meeting started in the hotel conference room, Lu Yiming] “This guy.” Li Li curled her lips. She was not a newcomer and even a fool could see that. She did this to avoid embarrassing Cheng Xiao. I have to say that Mr. Lu is really considerate towards Cheng Xiao. Could it be that you are planning to play this for real? “Ms. Lily?” Cheng Xiao was obviously relieved that Lu Yiming was not around. “Don’t just stand there, go back and get ready. We’ll have a meeting in the conference room on the third floor in an hour. By the way, notify everyone.” Chapter 54: Verbal Warfare “What did you say? Lu Group contacted other companies?” “Boss, is this playing hard to get? The Chinese love to play this game.” “Shut up!” NTT’s President Yamamoto had a gloomy face. Regardless of whether it was a tactic of playing hard to get or not, for NTT, there was only one chance. It seems that the handheld wireless telephone system, which had all the expectations placed on it, has not yet received the expected rewards. NTT is betting everything this time. Either you go bankrupt or you soar to fame. Now, the Lu Group is his last straw. If you don’t grasp it, I’m afraid… “Get ready, we’re going to visit the hotel.” “this…” “You don’t understand what I’m saying?” “I don’t dare.” Twenty minutes later, a convoy of three Toyota Century vehicles set off from NTT headquarters. This time, almost all of NTT’s senior executives went out and headed for the hotel under the leadership of President Yamamoto. And now at the hotel where Lu Group is staying. “Mr. Lu, as you expected, NTT just contacted us. President Yamamoto is leading the team personally. The drive will take 20 minutes.” An employee ran over excitedly and said. Mr. Lu is truly amazing. Originally everyone felt aggrieved. The Lu Group did not receive the respect it deserved from NTT. However, Mr. Lu’s magical operation immediately turned the situation around. Thinking back to yesterday’s meeting, everyone was still questioning Mr. Lu’s decision. Now it seems that the gap between him and Mr. Lu is as wide as the Pacific Ocean. “Got it. Tell Vice President Li that you can come back soon.” “Understood, Mr. Lu, should we wait at the hotel entrance?” “We are not the ones who are anxious now. By the way, notify the hotel that we need to requisition the largest conference room on the third floor.” “I’ll go now.” Confidence, Lu Yiming is full of confidence, and this is also the confidence of the Lu Group. Three Toyota Centuries stopped in front of the hotel. After all, NTT is one of the famous chaebols that lives a comfortable life. President Yamamoto’s personal appearance naturally attracted a lot of people’s attention. However, President Yamamoto was not in the mood for greeting at this moment. “President, we have contacted the Lu Group, but they are too arrogant.” The director was furious. The president came in person but they didn’t even arrange any reception staff. This is a blatant slap in the face. “Shut up, you idiot, this is a retaliation for our arrogance yesterday.” President Yamamoto had a stern face and walked towards the hotel elevator without paying attention to anyone else. A group of people got on the elevator in batches. Arrived at the third floor. At this time, Lu Yiming was already waiting at the elevator door. The scale is well grasped. “Lu Sang, we finally meet.” “Hello, President Yamamoto.” Both of them had warm smiles on their faces. No one could see the unhappiness between the two of them. For Lu Yiming, business exchanging compliments and small talk were naturally a piece of cake. President Yamamoto was also surprised at the other party’s experience. I had originally intended to teach Lu Yiming, my junior, a good lesson, but in the end, I was the one being taught a lesson. This just proves the old saying that the waves behind push the waves ahead. At this moment, Li Li and others had already rushed back to the hotel. After both parties took their seats in the conference room, President Yamamoto went straight to the point. “I heard that the Lu Group is quite interested in our handheld wireless phone system technology.” At this moment, the translator was about to speak, but… “Of course, otherwise we wouldn’t be here.” “Hiss… I didn’t expect that Lu Sang also has a considerable attainment in Japanese.” The standard Tokyo accent brought President Yamamoto a big surprise. As for the translator standing by, he looked confused. this… Does it mean that I am unemployed? You know, this translator was hired locally at a very high price. I was following Li Li before, so naturally I missed the greetings just now. At the beginning, we used NTT’s translation. But now… “Mr. Lu, can you speak Japanese?” Li Li looked confused, but now was not the time to ask questions. I could only quietly ask Cheng Xiao who was standing beside me. “I don’t know either. Although the school has Japanese courses, they are only elective courses.” Besides, Shanghai University doesn’t teach authentic Tokyo accent. To be honest, Cheng Xiao was also shocked. Is this still the so called dandy boy? Has the playboy circle become like this? After all, she was a famous campus beauty and top student at Shanghai University, but when compared with Lu Yiming, Cheng Xiao found that she was nothing. “President Yamamoto, this is more convenient.” “Of course, I am actually very yearning for Chinese culture.” “Let’s not exchange pleasantries. I hope to introduce a production line and purchase the usage time of the patented technology.” “There is no problem with purchasing patented technology for a certain period of time, but as for introducing a production line, I don’t think China currently has the ability to do so.” “President Yamamoto, do you have no confidence in our domestic manufacturing industry?” “Lu Sang, you should know that we always strive for excellence in every product. If your company needs products, no matter the quantity, we can do our best to supply them. I believe that Lu Sang has seen our production line and is fully capable of providing products.” For NTT, product production must be in its own hands. This is the bottom line. There is no objection to the fact that the sale of patented technology is determined by duration. Everything is in your hands. NTT can better control its partners. It doesn’t matter if he loses some face now. President Yamamoto is very confident that he can get it back with interest later. However, President Yamamoto seemed to have underestimated Lu Yiming’s determination. Hand over the lifeblood of the Lu Group to someone else? Haha, I’ve suffered this kind of loss in my previous life. In Lu Yiming’s opinion, the credibility of Xiao Ri Zi is just bullshit. “Product lines must be introduced, and the Lu Group has the ability to make proper arrangements for suppliers of parts.” “That’s impossible.” “President Yamamoto, please understand that this is also the bottom line of the Lu Group’s cooperation. NTT cannot take all the benefits.” “Mr. Lu, NTT also has its own plans.” “Unfortunately, another manufacturer has already agreed to our request.” “This is impossible!” “President Yamamoto, don’t be so absolute. Your manufacturing industry is going through a painful transformation. No matter which company it is, there will be times when they face difficulties, right?” Since the Plaza Accord, the economic bubble of Easy Life has completely burst. Even big companies like NTT are having a hard time, let alone others. In terms of chips, Lu Yiming has more in his hands. President Yamamoto is very clear about this. However, for a hero like Yamamoto, being controlled by others is really not a pleasant feeling. Chapter 55 Full of Confidence “President Yamamoto, we all know that the handheld wireless telephone system is just a mixed business.” For Lu Yiming, what matters is that the carrier used by the handheld wireless telephone system looks like a mobile phone. But it uses the fixed line telephone network and is actually a mobile and portable landline phone. The reason why we attach importance to handheld wireless telephone systems is that they have an unimaginable market in China. But President Yamamoto was not aware of this. Handheld wireless telephone systems have already suffered a setback in their daily lives. The vast majority of users come here for the low communication costs. So corporate users account for more than half. Among individual customers, the promotion of handheld wireless telephone systems is extremely difficult. NTT Corporation has gone from being full of confidence to being confused at this moment. Now that the Lu Group has extended an olive branch, it is the last straw for NTT. “With a patent royalty of 2 million per year, you don’t need to expand overseas markets. Of course, the production line can also be leased for production, but it must be in China.” “Lu Sang, we need to think about this.” “Of course, I will stay in your country for a week. Of course, we will also contact other companies during this period. I look forward to our cooperation.” Lu Yiming did not drag his feet at all. Stand up and see the guest off. Make it your home ground. I shook hands with President Yamamoto and said goodbye. As for other senior executives of NTT, they never expressed their opinions from beginning to end. From this point, it can be seen that NTT is completely a one man show led by Chairman Yamamoto. For Lu Yiming, this is undoubtedly great news. Lu Yiming could see that President Yamamoto’s heart had already been in turmoil for a long time. “Mr. Lu, do we need to prepare other alternative plans?” “Tell everyone, eat well and have fun these two days.” “this…” “Don’t worry, the daily allowance is from the company.” “Long live Mr. Lu!” It is definitely a blessing to follow such a leader. You can work and enjoy at the same time. As for contacting other big manufacturers? Forget it. Mobile phone technology itself is not something that the Lu Group can afford at the moment. It would be fine if we focus on developing mobile phones. But the Lu Group itself is taking a multi directional development path. It is simply impossible to have so much funding to support it. Technological research and development is a bottomless pit. Although Lu Yiming has insight into the future, he is not omnipotent. “Sister Lili, Cheng Xiao, you two come with me, the rest of you can do whatever you want.” Lu Yiming left Li Li and Cheng Xiao alone. Li Li’s expression was normal, but Cheng Xiao still seemed a little uncomfortable when she was with Lu Yiming. After all, when I was drunk,… Under Mr. Lu’s suit, he has eight abdominal muscles and a mermaid line. Cheng Xiao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Bah, Cheng Xiao, what are you thinking about. “Cheng Xiao? Cheng Xiao!” “ah?!” While I was daydreaming, Lu Yiming ‘woken me up’ with a voice that made me laugh and cry. “Be serious.” “No, sorry.” “Cheng Xiao, draw up a contract.” “Now?” Cheng Xiao was stunned. Where did Mr. Lu get his confidence from? We haven’t even started the negotiations yet, and now we’re drafting a contract? Why does Mr. Lu think that NTT will definitely accept the Lu Group’s request? “Is it possible?” “no problem.” I have to admit that Lu Yiming’s confident look is contagious. “Li Li, you need to return to China now and choose a location. The production line must be in Shanghai. Show your strengths. We need the government’s sincerity .” “Why does it have to be in the Magic City?” Li Li is not like Cheng Xiao. Smarter than anyone else about this. To be honest, Li Li can naturally get the best in terms of government policies, but if she is outside of Shanghai, she can get a better price. “Radiation surface, forget it. Now is not the time to teach you. I will feel relieved to leave this matter to you.” “I see.” Although Li Li didn’t know Lu Yiming’s intention, from the current point of view, Mr. Lu’s decisions were correct. Just execute it mindlessly. Li Li might not have noticed it herself. He had only been following Lu Yiming for a short time, but he had already been convinced by him. This would have been impossible in the past. Lu Aijun’s intention was to let Li Li assist Lu Yiming, but the result was that Li Li completely obeyed Lu Yiming and did not play the role she should have at all. I don’t know what kind of expression Lu Aijun will have when he finds out. After all, Li Li, as his special assistant, is very capable. At this time in the Magic City. “Nannan, it’s okay for you to stay in Demon City, but you have to agree to a few of my requests.” Su Yunchang has been staying in the Magic City these days, as to why. Haha, it’s obvious that he just wants his precious daughter to change her mind. But Su Rongrong seemed to be determined and refused to go back to Su Province. Compared with her previous life, Su Rongrong’s situation has undergone a drastic change. At least Lu Yiming was not injured. Well, okay, at least there was nothing substantial. As for the other accounts, Su Rongrong said that she would definitely settle them with Lu Yiming. As for my daughter’s wish to not return to Su Province and to make a name for herself in the Magic City, Although Su Yunchang was reluctant, he could only respect his daughter’s thoughts. The most important point is that my father in law stands on my daughter’s side. Talking about filial piety, right? Hey, the old man is still here, so no matter how it comes, it will never be his father’s turn. Helpless, Su Yunchang could only take a step back. Okay, there’s no problem staying in Mo. You can also show your talents if you want. I also want my daughter to be able to make a career. However, there is often a huge contrast between ideals and reality. As a gifted graduate of Shanghai University, he is naturally welcomed by many large companies. But it is impossible to become a backbone and play your role as soon as you join the company. This is obviously impossible. Moreover, Su Rongrong likes working in investment banking. this… An investment bank founded in 1995. If Lu Yiming knew, he could only say that Su Rongrong had good taste. Master the investment banking of the next 30 years. It is indeed a good choice. Moreover, it can also create a number of investment myths. There are countless opportunities in the rapidly developing China. It depends on how you grasp it. Unexpectedly, Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong’s vision were so similar. “I choose the company.” “dad.” “There’s no choice.” The investment banking circle is not simple. Since my daughter wants to stay in the Magic City, then it seems that my plan has found a good executor. The moment Su Rongrong was distracted, Su Yunchang’s mouth corners raised. Don’t want to go back to headquarters? It doesn’t matter, the Su family’s investment bank welcomes you. Sure enough, old ginger is still spicy. Chapter 56 Gaoyuan Capital “Gaoyuan Capital?” Su Rongrong looked at her father with confusion. Gaoyuan Capital? Su Rongrong, who is familiar with the investment world, seems to be unfamiliar with the Gaoyuan Capital her father mentioned. A famous investment bank in China. Sequoia ranks first, and Shenzhen Capital Group and IDG Capital are also very famous. However, this is still an era where foreign capital is king. Well known names such as Fidelity, Blackstone, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and KKR represent countless wealth. It is also the best choice for the rich. As for Gaoyuan Capital, sorry, Su Rongrong said, maybe her father was fooled? “Do you want to lead a group independently?” “certainly.” Of course, it is Su Rongrong’s dream to lead a group independently. However, for large investment banks, unless you are a senior boss, you’d better forget about it. Who would trust a newcomer with huge amounts of money? So what if it has huge potential? Any mistake in decision making will result in immeasurable financial losses. For example, the so called angel round has not yet been truly defined in this era. “Instead of working in a large investment bank, think about becoming bigger and stronger.” Either don’t do it, or do it to the best of your ability. Ambition is the most important component. This can be considered as the first lesson Su Yunchang taught his daughter. “Gaoyuan Capital is not well known, but it has strong financial resources.” “dad.” “The decision is yours.” After pondering for a moment, Su Rongrong raised her head with a determined look. Yes, Su Rongrong will never let Su Yunchang down. This is my daughter. “Have you decided?” “Um.” “Here’s your business card. Go to work tomorrow.” “Is it that simple?” this… Is it a bit too exaggerated? It’s an investment bank after all, and there’s not even an interview? “I won’t hide it from you. Gao Yuan and the Su family have a close relationship.” Even if Su Yunchang didn’t say it, Su Rongrong could find out. Instead of doing this, it is better to be honest at the beginning. “Dad, there is a rule that the Su family is not allowed to get involved in the Magic City.” “What era is this? Some agreements should be annulled. Besides, others won’t be so honest.” Su Yunchang sneered. Other families have made many small moves. The next day, Su Rongrong became an independent analyst of Gaoyuan Investment, which was equivalent to rising to fame overnight. Even, as long as Su Rongrong is willing, she can easily get the status of partner. Su Yunchang left the Magic City with peace of mind. As for whether her daughter can make it, the stage has been set, it depends on Su Rongrong herself. I don’t know if it’s fate. The first project that Su Rongrong set her sights on was the handheld wireless telephone system. Well, at the last dinner, Su Rongrong’s mind became active just by hearing the conversation between Lu Yiming and her uncle in law. However, Su Rongrong keenly discovered the breakthrough from just a few words. Sometimes, vision determines everything. Su Rongrong’s vision is naturally broad and she looks at problems from a different perspective. Since my uncle in law is a senior executive in telecommunications, he is also concerned about this issue. There are naturally huge benefits to be gained. As for Lu Yiming. Although she despised Lu Yiming’s character, Su Rongrong admired Lu Yiming’s vision. Su Rongrong quickly locked onto the handheld wireless telephone system. The domestic gap period is a good breakthrough. Maybe we can use the handheld wireless telephone system to make Gaoyuan Investment famous. Su Rongrong is also holding back a big move. It’s finally time for me to show my talents. Su Rongrong understood it very well. People within Gaoyuan Investment were not optimistic about Su Rongrong’s sudden arrival. For college graduates who have just graduated, everything about them is a mystery except their background. It is not easy to gain a foothold in Gaoyuan Investment. Su Rongrong originally thought that her proposal would be criticized. However, I didn’t expect that the boss of Gaoyuan Investment was very optimistic about this project. He overruled all objections and took the project into his own hands. Submit in the morning and issue in the afternoon. Gaoyuan Capital’s efficiency is truly amazing. Even Su Rongrong hasn’t recognized all of her team members yet. The first project has been handed over to me. And Su Rongrong also let everyone see what a true action oriented person is. Book a ticket. Flying to Little Days tomorrow. The main focus is on taking people by surprise. Su Rongrong is full of confidence. However, at this time, the boss of Gaoyuan Capital called Su Yunchang in his office. “Boss Su, as you expected, Rongrong has set her sights on the handheld wireless phone system.” On the phone, the boss of Gaoyuan Capital was in awe of Su Yunchang’s judgment. “My daughter’s vision follows mine.” On the phone, Su Yunchang looked very proud. The daughter I raised myself will naturally understand. Su Yunchang noticed this during the dinner. The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Being good at capturing useful information is an essential ability for a successful person. In this regard, Su Rongrong is obviously qualified. “But Mr. Su, as far as I know, someone has already set their sights on the handheld wireless telephone system.” “Lu Group.” “Mr. Su, do you know?” “nature.” “Boss Su wants to snatch meat from the Lu Group’s mouth?” “No, it’s too late.” During the last dinner, Su Yunchang had already heard everything Lu Yiming was hiding. The heir of the Lu Group is a big shot. “How about I stop the project?” Not being able to win the fight is not a good thing for Su Rongrong. After all, this is my first project since joining Gaoyuan Investment. If she fails, it may be a serious blow to Su Rongrong’s morale. Moreover, the situation inside is already turbulent. “Just pretend you know nothing.” “I understand.” All I can say is that Mr. Su is really cruel to his own daughter. I already know the ending, but I still want to… All I can say is that failure is the best teacher. This is going to make Miss Su get a bloody nose. A catalyst for growth? After understanding Su Yunchang’s meaning, the boss of Gaoyuan Investment shut up immediately. As for why I should listen to Su Yunchang so much. Well, the financial backer behind Gaoyuan Investment is actually the Su family. It’s just a hidden chess piece placed in the Magic City. Stir up the situation and make arrangements in advance. The Su family had already begun making secret arrangements. Some agreements should have been broken long ago. The Magic City will definitely become a battleground. Not only the Su family, but many aristocratic families have also begun their own layout. Who can finally win depends on their respective abilities. As for Su Rongrong, she naturally didn’t know all this. All information for the handheld wireless telephone system was prepared as quickly as possible. No one can tell who will win until the last moment. In Su Rongrong’s words, the pattern must be opened up. Chapter 57: Teacher Iijima “Mr. Yamamoto, I didn’t expect to receive your invitation so late at night.” At 10 o’clock in the evening, Lu Yiming unexpectedly received a call from President Yamamoto’s beautiful secretary. It seems that the old fox can no longer sit still. It was one day earlier than Lu Yiming expected. NTT’s internal problems appear to be more serious than it had imagined. “You are a guest from afar, Lu Sang.” President Yamamoto is all smiles, a private club. I have to say, this place is absolutely private. “Nice environment.” “certainly.” Mr. Yamamoto smiled. This is one of the favorite clubs of the upper class in the small days. The membership system is very limited and you can’t get in even if you have money. NTT has reached a precarious point, but President Yamamoto is still content to enjoy himself. The attitude is quite good. “Lu Sang, let me introduce you to some girls.” President Yamamoto clapped his hands, and the next moment, the sliding door opened, and the person kneeling outside was a familiar face. Okubo Matsue. That is the famous Mr. Iijima in the future. Unfortunately, more than ten years later, she was destined to die. This is not the point. The point is that President Yamamoto at this moment showed an expression that only men can understand. “Lu Sang, your skills are first rate. This is my favorite girl.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Damn, although Lu Yiming understands that no matter whether it is in Xiaoshi or in South Korea, their chaebols all have such quirks. But I didn’t expect that President Yamamoto had an even heavier taste. Is this an invitation to ‘take up arms’ together? “Mr. Yamamoto, I appreciate your kindness.” “Tsk tsk, Lu Sang, you are so boring.” Seeing Lu Yiming’s firm attitude, President Yamamoto waved his hand helplessly. I don’t buy it. It’s indeed a bit difficult. Inviting Lu Yiming so late is certainly not to share a woman. Ultimately, it’s a contract issue. Yamamoto really wanted to sign the contract. After all, NTT’s financial situation had reached a point where it was difficult to recover. It is probably a pipe dream to want to make a comeback by relying on a handheld wireless telephone system. If the Chinese market can be opened up, it will be a destiny changing cooperation for NTT. However, the proposal put forward by Lu Group was too harsh. Although NTT can be reborn through this, the benefits it can gain are not great. If it were two months ago, faced with such conditions, Mr. Yamamoto would just smile coldly and refuse without hesitation. But now… “Lu, try our sake. This is the 14th generation Longquan Junmai Daiginjo.” Yamamoto pointed to the sake in front of him. Juyondaime is a winery located in Takagi Brewery. The name of the wine comes from the 14th generation successor of Takagi Brewery. Its unique and inimitable flavor has won the love of many upper class people. Mr. Yamamoto is one of them. “It is indeed rare.” Only in this era can you drink the 14th generation Ryusen Junmai Daiginjo. In later times, even the top bosses would probably not be willing to take out a bottle of wine like this. Just like the so called 1982 Lafite. The value naturally varies greatly from era to era. No matter what, this pot of 14th generation Longquan Junmai Daiginjo is still the top famous wine for daily life. “Mr. Lu, please forgive me for being frank. Your previous request is difficult for NTT to achieve. There are too many different voices within the company.” “Mr. Yamamoto, they have no choice. Moreover, I believe that if it is Mr. Yamamoto who makes the decision, they cannot object.” “Having said that, as someone in power, I also have to consider NTT.” “Mr. Yamamoto, there is actually no difference. I have already stepped back and rented your company’s production line.” In fact, this is Lu Yiming’s real purpose. Although from the current perspective, NTT’s production line is indeed a very important link. But Lu Yiming knew very well that in 10 years, no, in 5 years, the technology of this production line would become outdated. The development of the communications field can only be described as changing with each passing day. At this moment, NTT treated the production line as a treasure, but it would never have imagined that it would become obsolete five years later. As for the beginning, Lu Yiming boasted that he would buy out the production line, which was just a preparation for bargaining. It would be a waste of money to purchase a production line like this, unless you’ve been kicked in the head by a donkey. What Lu Yiming really cares about are those parts suppliers. They are the real key. So for Lu Yiming, renting a production line is the most cost effective option. How to retain parts suppliers is what really deserves our attention. Fortunately, this is not the current focus, and we can talk about it slowly later. “Lu Sang, this is why I invited you. Leasing is indeed within my consideration, but we can only sign this contract for two years.” For President Yamamoto, two years is the most suitable period for NTT. “Impossible. Excuse me, the Lu Group is not stupid, and Chinese companies are not stupid either.” “Lu Sang, don’t get excited.” Lu Yiming’s excited expression scared Yamamoto. “That’s because NTT treated me like a fool.” Lu Yiming sneered. The calculation is quite good. Under the guise of win win cooperation, what’s wrong? Do you really think you are a rookie in the business world? “Lu Sang, you misunderstood me. As a partner, I am also trying to help your company avoid possible risks.” “Mr. Yamamoto, have you ever done the math? Once the Lu Group promotes the handheld wireless phone system, it will take at least a year to prepare. By then, if the handheld wireless phone system sells well, you can take the opportunity to raise the price. What about the Lu Group?” “this…” Well, Mr. Yamamoto was completely speechless. The other party had already seen through the intention. “Ten years is impossible.” “Five years. This is the bottom line of the Lu Group. To be honest, compared to the company, I personally value the mobile phone business more than the handheld wireless phone system.” This is NTT’s biggest weakness. The future of handheld wireless phone systems is proving to be bleak. Often, a wrong decision may lead to the demise of a company. “call…” Yamamoto did not answer, but drank the sake in the cup. “Lu Sang, you convinced me.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Virtue, even a fool knows the meaning of coming out so late at night, why bother to put on airs? However, since they can cooperate, Lu Yiming does not recommend acting with the other party. “Mr. Yamamoto, this is the best decision you can make.” “So, can we enjoy the beauty now?” “I’m sorry, but I need to revise the contract overnight and make a report at the same time. I’m sure Mr. Yamamoto can understand.” “That’s a shame. Iijima’s skills are first rate.” Lu Yiming: ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍ Chapter 58 Signing Contract “I came back late yesterday.” “I can’t help it. I can’t refuse your kindness.” “The perfume smells nice, but it’s a bit too popular.” Chanel No. 5, a successful advertising gimmick, has become the first choice of many women. But in Li Li’s opinion, it was too common and had lost its individuality. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, in Li Li’s eyes, it was time for her to go out and fool around for another night. “Get the contract ready and go directly to NTT.” “Is it really done?” This time, it was Li Li’s turn to be shocked. If the contract is really finalized, wouldn’t it be unfair to Mr. Lu? “You wouldn’t believe it even if I told you.” Lu Yiming stretched lazily. It’s true that although Mr. Yamamoto is old, his physical strength is still very good. Lu Yiming stayed up until two in the morning, and this guy could still hug women left and right. If I hadn’t left in time, I’m afraid a live sex show would have been performed in front of me. Tsk tsk, the old man has a lustful heart. If it were in his previous life, Lu Yiming might have really gone along with the corrupt officials. It’s a pity that my [sin value] has been reminding me to be careful in what I say and do. As for the conversation between the two, Cheng Xiao heard every word. Of course, the point is not Chanel No. 5, but whether Lu Yiming did that last night. Have you ever eaten pork or seen a pig run? During the four years of college, the sisters in the dormitory talked about this topic a lot. If a woman becomes reserved and sexy, men really have no chance to show off. What’s more, the sisters in the dormitory have no scruples and even treat certain cultural aspects of their daily lives as research topics. We can draw a conclusion that the life after the collapse of the bubble economy is definitely a paradise for rich men. There was revelry every night, and certain industries were developed to the extreme. The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Even if I didn’t want to hear these things, I still passively accepted a lot of them. Could it be that Lu Yiming’s true nature was exposed? No, it must be the world’s misunderstanding of Mr. Lu. The young Mr. Lu in my eyes is definitely not… Otherwise, how could Mr. Lu miss so many opportunities? As long as Lu Yiming had even the slightest bit of bad intentions, I would probably have become Lu Yiming’s plaything long ago. From childhood to adulthood, many men looked at me with naked possessiveness in their eyes. Lu Yiming can keep himself clean in front of her, and this alone is something other men cannot compare to. Cheng Xiao didn’t know why she had such thoughts. Especially after I got drunk. This thought became more and more serious. “Cheng Xiao, Cheng Xiao?!” “Huh? What?!” “Has the contract I asked you to prepare been changed?” “I have modified some of the data according to your suggestion. I will show it to you later.” “We have time on the way. What’s wrong with you? Why is your face so red?” It’s strange, Cheng Xiao’s behavior has been too abnormal these two days. Logically speaking, the drunken incident was over. It should be back to normal. But Cheng Xiao’s performance was really… “It’s okay, Mr. Lu, take your time eating. I’ll go prepare the contract first.” “No hurry, hey…” Well, before I could finish my words, Cheng Xiao had disappeared. This speed is simply amazing. “hehe…” “why are you laughing?” Facing Li Li’s suggestive smile, Lu Yiming was even more confused. These two were becoming so strange. “Mr. Lu, take your time eating. I’ve also finished eating. I really need to replenish my body.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I said it myself, nothing happened last night. Li Li: Really? Then I want to ask, can you explain the lipstick mark on the crotch? Lu Yiming: If I say this is a coincidence, I wonder if you will believe it? Of course, putting all this aside, Lu Yiming’s abilities definitely made Li Li praise him endlessly. Since the national debt incident, Lu Yiming has demonstrated abilities that even President Lu cannot match. What on earth could change a dude in such a short time? At ten o’clock in the morning, everyone gathered at the hotel entrance. Two business cars set off towards NTT headquarters. On the way, Lu Yiming checked the specific details of the contract. There’s no way, doing business abroad is not the same as doing business in China. Any trap could happen. For this purpose, the company’s legal department was also brought along. Not only should you be familiar with domestic business laws, but you should also have a clear understanding of the laws governing your daily life. “There is no problem with the specific content, just check the legal terms and be careful not to be put in the pocket by the little life.” Lu Yiming seemed extremely cautious. After all, such contract disputes are not uncommon in the country. Especially in international business, many domestic companies have been cheated. It is better to be safe than sorry. “Don’t worry, Mr. Lu. Last night, we asked the group’s legal department to work overtime to check several times. It can be seen that NTT still attaches great importance to this cooperation.” “OK.” Lu Yiming closed his eyes and conserved his energy. At this time, a flight took off from the Magic City and was flying towards Xiaori. Su Rongrong looked at the scenery outside the porthole and couldn’t help feeling excited. If we can successfully convince NTT, we can change the landscape of the domestic communications sector. And this investment is likely to become the biggest topic in the industry. Become famous in one battle. Lu Yiming, thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have paid attention to the handheld wireless telephone system. For this reason, Su Rongrong specifically asked her uncle in law. This is what Telecom currently lacks. Once introduced into the country, it can quickly occupy the market. In particular, the Chinese people’s character of pretending to be the best at the lowest cost is also taken into account. The conclusions drawn are naturally promising. Unfortunately, the plane hasn’t landed yet. The scene of Lu Yiming and President Yamamoto shaking hands has been captured forever by the camera. In other words, the Internet is not well developed today. Otherwise, Su Rongrong would have known on the plane that this trip to enjoy her daily life would have been in vain. Lu Group signed a contract with NTT. In the next five years, the Lu Group will be fully responsible for the operation of NTT’s handheld wireless telephone system in China. And NTT established three assembly lines in China. At this moment, the Lu Group was destined to be pushed to the forefront. After the review ceremony, Mr. Yamamoto also wanted to invite Lu Yiming to attend the dinner. It’s a pity that Lu Yiming is eager to go home now. I spent the 2000 quota in just half a month. This ability to spend money is also shocking. Everything is ready. Now all we need to do is to work with the handheld wireless telephone system and negotiate terms with the telecommunications company. Lu Yiming, holding the chips, is full of confidence. When the plane landed, Su Rongrong and Lu Yiming were destined to “meet by chance” in a foreign country. Chapter 59 Encounter “Is it him?!” “Boss Su, what are you doing?” Su Rongrong’s originally determined expression changed right after she got off the plane. Lu Yiming, why is he here? A bad premonition immediately came to my mind. “Let’s take a break.” If Lu Yiming also came for the handheld wireless telephone system, his appearance here now probably means he has succeeded. If that were true. After all, the inspiration for the handheld wireless telephone system came from Su Rongrong from Lu Yiming. But he didn’t expect that even though he acted fast enough, Lu Yiming still got there first. “And Cheng Xiao?” In Lu Yiming’s team, Su Rongrong also met Cheng Xiao. Could it be that the rumors in school are true? What a great Lu Yiming. Su Rongrong sneered. “Boss Su, how about we contact NTT first?” “It’s too late.” Su Rongrong sighed inwardly, fearing that even if she met him, there would be no good result. In that case, it’s better to go straight to the point. “Lu Yiming.” “Huh?” The scheduled flight was to take off in an hour, but unexpectedly, I would meet Su Rongrong here? “Come out to relax?” “Let’s find a place to talk?” “coffee?” “Can.” The appearance of Su Rongrong surprised not only Lu Yiming, but also Li Li and Cheng Xiao. “who is she?” “Su Rongrong, classmate.” Watching Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong walking away, Li Li couldn’t help but ask Cheng Xiao who was standing beside her. “Classmate, do all the girls in your school look like this and bring disaster to the country and the people?” When did Shanghai University start its acting department? Li Li was already amazed by Cheng Xiao, and now there’s Su Rongrong. What’s even more exaggerated is that Su Rongrong not only has outstanding appearance, but her temperament is also rare in the world. As soon as Su Rongrong appeared, she told everyone that this is what a lady from a noble family should look like. If this happened in ancient times, how many royal nobles and talented scholars would be fascinated by it? However, why did Su Rongrong appear at the airport? And it was obviously aimed at Lu Yiming? “How is their relationship?” “I don’t know.” Cheng Xiao’s life in college was all about working and studying. She seldom paid attention to things around her. If it wasn’t for a chance encounter, she would have never met Lu Yiming. As for Su Rongrong, the two of them had no intersection. However, if we really talk about their relationship, it seems that their relationship was not very good during that time in the hospital. Su Rongrong was cold towards Lu Yiming, especially the hint of resentment in her eyes. Cheng Xiao felt it clearly at that time. At that time, Su Rongrong had an attitude that she would never have anything to do with him again. Logically speaking, even if we meet here, we should treat each other as strangers. Besides, we are about to graduate, so it would be better not to meet each other. But Su Rongrong’s behavior today was really strange. “Americano or latte?” “American.” “The taste hasn’t changed.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Don’t think you know me well.” “I understand. Women are fickle.” “Lu Yiming…” “What do you want to talk to me about?” “Can’t we chat if we meet by chance?” “Come on, I know myself well. You won’t come to me before the matter is clarified.” “Even if I find out, I won’t.” Yes, Su Rongrong is so arrogant. “Tell me, what’s going on?” “Handheld wireless telephone system.” “Um?” Lu Yiming was stunned. A handheld wireless phone system? What does that mean? Is this what Su Rongrong came for? Su Rongrong did not hide anything but was straightforward. Yes, there is no need to play these empty games with Lu Yiming. Waste of time. As for Lu Yiming, his eyes changed slightly at this moment. The handheld wireless telephone system, if I’m not mistaken, was mentioned accidentally when we were having dinner together last time. It’s just that it was Gao Wei who asked himself at that time. Unexpectedly, Su Rongrong heard it. It seems that not only the listener was interested, but he also put it into action so quickly. At the same time, Lu Yiming secretly felt lucky. Fortunately, Su Rongrong arrived one day late. Otherwise, with the Su family’s financial resources, it would be even harder to say who would win in this matter. The key is that Lu Yiming does not have enough cards in his hand. “How did you guess that?” “You don’t know?” “Amazing, you are worthy of being a member of the Su family, your business logic is perfect.” It was quite an achievement to be able to guess the handheld wireless telephone system from the few words you spoke. After all, even Gao Wei, a senior executive of telecommunications, did not understand the routine at the beginning. But I didn’t expect Su Rongrong to be so smart. It is no exaggeration to call him a business wizard. More importantly, the trip could be accomplished in such a short time, which was beyond Lu Yiming’s expectations. “You got there first.” “How do you know?” “You are so complacent. It’s annoying to see you like this.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, can you complain about yourself? “There is still one hour left, no, there are still 50 minutes left before I return home.” Lu Yiming looked at his watch and signaled Su Rongrong to save time. “call…” Su Rongrong took a deep breath. To be honest, Su Rongrong really didn’t want to have anything to do with Lu Yiming. However, I am indeed optimistic about the handheld wireless telephone system and it has great potential in the future in China. Su Rongrong’s reason told her that it was not okay to miss this opportunity because of personal grudges. “You got the handheld radio system?” “you guess.” “Lu Yiming, I am serious.” “You’ll know if you ask.” “Okay, it looks like we’ve got it. So, can we work together?” “cooperate?” Lu Yiming stopped stirring the coffee with the spoon in his hand. “Who do you represent? The Su family? If I remember correctly, the Su family probably can’t be involved in this.” Not to mention that the primary market for handheld wireless phone systems is Shanghai. Even if it was because of Gao Yan’s relationship, the Su family still needed to avoid suspicion in business. Lu Yiming didn’t believe that Su Rongrong was representing the Su family. If this is true, not only is the Su family’s behavior too ugly, but I’m afraid that after breaking the rules, their future will not be easy. “This is my business card.” Su Rongrong did not answer Lu Yiming’s question, but took out a business card from her bag. “Of course. I haven’t seen you for just a few days, but Rongrong has already become an elite in the investment bank.” Lu Yiming took the business card with a hint of amusement on his lips. Conceal the truth. Gaoyuan Capital itself is very familiar with it. In the previous life, the two sides have fought more than once, with both sides winning and losing. But I didn’t expect that in this life, Su Rongrong would actually set foot in investment banking. Sure enough, the flapping of the butterfly’s wings is still very powerful. As for Gaoyuan Capital, it is just a part of the Su family. You can deceive others, but you can’t deceive Lu Yiming. Chapter 60 Disharmonious Voices “There’s not a strong case for collaboration.” “Lu Yiming, you should know that the Lu Group alone cannot eat such a big cake.” “Is the initiative in my hands?” “you…” Jiang Taigong fishes, and those who are willing will take the bait. Lu Yiming now holds the trump card in his hand. “Lu Yiming, think about it, cooperation is a win win situation.” “What can you give?” “What do you mean?” Su Rongrong’s pupils suddenly dilated. This bastard, could he be thinking… The thief is still alive! Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Yeah, I feel misunderstood again. “Rongrong, since you came to me, it means you already understand the value of it. Forget it, when you think it through, you can come to me anytime.” Lu Yiming said that if he continued the discussion now, he would probably get a slap in the face. Seeing Su Rongrong sitting there angrily, Lu Yiming quickly left. “You’re back? Not a bad girl.” “That’s not something you can just think about casually.” “What’s the meaning?” “A Su family member, or a legitimate daughter, what do you think?” “hiss…” The value of the four words “Su family’s legitimate daughter” made Li Li gasp. As for Cheng Xiao, she looked confused. Well, most people really don’t understand how terrifying the Su family is. “No agreement?” “What can we talk about in half an hour? Even if we want to talk, there must be enough interests involved.” Even if the other party is Su Rongrong, Lu Yiming can’t be as brainless as a bootlicker. After all, he has been reborn, and Lu Yiming will not be so foolish as to give up his benefits to others. When it comes to business, I think Su Rongrong is the same. As for what I meant just now, Su Rongrong should be able to react. “You are still awesome.” Li Li came to her senses only at this moment. She was originally unsure about the future of handheld wireless telephone systems in China. But now that the Su family has been brought into the game, there is nothing to worry about. “Boss Su, where are we now?” “go back.” “go back?” this… You’ve just landed and are starting to live a simple life, and you want to go back now? “Let’s think of another way.” Since Lu Yiming has already got there first, there is no reason for Su Rongrong to stay here. Time is precious, and Su Rongrong needs a better solution. Lu Yiming, we are not done yet. Fortunately, it was not far away, so the wasted airfare was nothing to Su Rongrong. The only regret is that the project was snatched away, but that’s normal since it was Lu Yiming’s idea in the first place. After all, it was me who was not honest first. At this time, at the high level meeting of Lu Group. Some people are already impatient to attack Lu Yiming. “Mr. Lu, the group’s focus has shifted towards real estate. This is the group’s policy, right?” The purchasing manager looked unhappy. The policy that had already been decided is now in turmoil. This made the other party very unhappy. “Yes, Mr. Lu, we have already made it clear that we want to set up an investment department. But look at it now. How long has the investment department been established? 20 million, this is 20 million, which is equivalent to our profit for half a year. Is it spent like this?” “I just got the news that Mr. Lu has signed a cooperation agreement with NTT. The company has a rule that contracts over 5 million must be reviewed by the board. Mr. Lu is blatantly disregarding the company’s rules and regulations.” The sudden attack caught even Mr. Lu off guard. I just got the news and wanted to ask, how did these senior executives know about it? Lu Aijun’s face looked ugly, not because of Lu Yiming, but because there were changes in the company, even beyond his expectations. It seems that the vigorous support for the investment department during this period has caused dissatisfaction among the people. “I know about this cooperation. Li Li has already reported it specifically. The specific content will be explained to everyone after Lu Yiming returns.” “Mr. Lu, after all, we have never been involved in this track. If research and development is required, the company simply does not have the funds to invest. As you know, we just bought the No. 45 site. This is the largest investment since the establishment of our group. All departments should fully cooperate.” It has been calculated before that if the No. 45 site is successfully developed, the profit can be more than 300 million. Even though the initial investment is huge, it will be a very cost effective deal for the Lu Group. But Mr. Lu, knowing full well that the company’s working capital might be exhausted once 45 acres of land were developed, still made such a lavish investment. this… The senior executives present were naturally unhappy. Mr. Lu’s ambiguous attitude is even more disheartening. “My words are useless?” Is this an attempt to force the emperor to abdicate? What kind of scene has Lu Aijun not seen? With just one sentence, he shut up all the others. “I don’t dare.” “That’s not what I meant.” Several senior executives hurried to explain. I was afraid of causing Mr. Lu to misunderstand. But Lu Aijun saw the actual situation very clearly. Most of the company’s senior executives are veterans who followed him to build the empire. These senior executives have certainly made great contributions to the group’s development to where it is today. However, his high profile promotion of his son still caused dissatisfaction among some senior executives. I’m afraid that if this continues, dissatisfaction will become even more serious. Now it seems that this handheld wireless phone system will either be eye catching or… Unexpectedly, this time not only Lu Yiming, but even Li Li would be so supportive. It can only be said that the Lu Group has become turbulent because of this contract. This might be something Lu Yiming had not expected. Of course, what if we knew the result? In Lu Yiming’s words, a new emperor appoints new ministers, and his father is just kind. If it were me, I would have been ready for surgery a long time ago. There is only one path between the old forces and the new forces, which is that they are irreconcilable. Either the East Palace overwhelms the West Palace, or I leave the Lu family in disgrace. Unfortunately, these guys chose the wrong opponent. “Li Li, help me make an appointment with Mr. Gao from Telecom.” “Okay, I’ll try to schedule an appointment for next Monday.” “It’s been too long. Let’s do it tomorrow.” “tomorrow?” Li Li rolled her eyes delicately. Does this person treat telecommunications as his own family business? These officials are quite difficult to serve. Even if it’s Mr. Lu, he probably wouldn’t have such a big face to meet him. “Don’t worry, I will definitely see you.” Lu Yiming, on the other hand, was full of confidence. Presumably, Gao Wei had learned from Su Rongrong that he had signed a contract with NTT for a handheld wireless telephone system. Even if I don’t go to see Gao Yan, he will come to find me. I just don’t know how big the Su family’s appetite will be when faced with such a big piece of cake? I’m really looking forward to it. Stirring up the storm, it’s time for me to show my talents. Lu Yiming looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up into a beautiful arc. Chapter 61 Su Rongrong’s Phone Call “Boss Lu, we are welcoming the fifth wave of customers.” As for the word ‘guest’, it must be enclosed in double quotes. Since returning from her childhood, Li Li’s office has been visited by waves of people. “How can you be considered a guest?” “Bad guests are still guests.” “That makes sense.” The investment department only has such a small amount of money, yet it was targeted. This is like treating the investment department as the finance department. There is no way out. President Lu has given the order to ensure that not a penny of funding for the investment department will be reduced. As for other departments, just bear with it. Wait until the money is returned. Departments that have been used to living a luxurious life naturally do not want to live a hard life again. During this period, the financial director was forced to go out and have some free time. Since we can’t find a financial director, we can only turn our attention to the investment department. This is the only department that can squeeze money out of the CFO. Naturally, no one dares to go to Mr. Lu’s place. This makes Li Li suffer. The office door was never closed. It’s just a waste of time, taking turns after turns. It seriously affected Li Li’s work plan. “Ignore them. No matter who comes, kick them out.” “I don’t have such a distinguished status as you. We are just colleagues. We will see each other sooner or later.” When Li Li was a special assistant, she got along quite well with the heads of these departments. It is obviously impossible to really break up. “If it doesn’t work, I’ll learn from our financial director. If you can’t mess with me, then you can avoid me.” Well, this is going to force another person to leave. “It’s just right, you lead the team to Telecom.” Originally, Lu Yiming wanted Gao Yan to come to him himself. After some calculation in my mind, even if it was Gao Yan, he probably wouldn’t be able to hold on for long. The time is tight and the task is heavy. Besides, there are many leaders watching over us. If he leaked the information about the handheld wireless telephone system to others, it would be too passive for Gao Yan. “Okay, I’ve been waiting for you to say that.” Li Li agreed immediately. She didn’t want to stay in this office for a moment. “Are you still not leaving?” After finishing the business, Lu Yiming looked at Li Li who was lying motionless with a face full of question marks. “Believe it or not, as soon as I leave, they will come right after me.” Li Li sighed. These guys are like dog skin plasters. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Just at this moment, Lu Yiming’s cell phone rang. Here it comes. Lu Yiming was waiting for this call. “Go tell them that if everything goes well, they will have money soon.” “Um?” Where does the money come from? This is the amount of working capital the company has. Li Li knew it very well. I’m still waiting for next month’s salary to be paid back as an emergency measure. All I can say is that real estate projects are too expensive. Various unexpected payments continued to come in. During this period, banks have inexplicably tightened their lending standards. If we had known this would be the case, we should not have repaid the government bond loans. Although the interest rate is 7%, I feel confident because I have real money in my hands. Lu Yiming made a gesture towards Li Li. Seeing that something important had to be done, Li Li immediately stood up and closed the door of Lu Yiming’s office from the outside. “Ahem…” Lu Yiming cleared his throat and then answered the phone. “Hello.” “It’s me.” Su Rongrong’s voice came from the phone. This number belongs to Su Rongrong. In his previous life, Lu Yiming knew it by heart. It’s a pity that in the previous life, I didn’t have the chance to dial this number, and it eventually became a source of worry for Lu Yiming. But I didn’t expect that this time, it was Su Rongrong who took the initiative. “Let’s meet.” “Can.” It’s hard to explain over the phone. Su Rongrong extended an invitation. Lu Yiming also agreed immediately. I originally thought that Lu Yiming would act arrogantly, but I didn’t expect that Lu Yiming would agree to it so easily. After all, it is Su Rongrong who needs help from Lu Yiming now. Naturally, the attitude cannot be tough. “I’ll visit you.” “No need, I want to see your office environment.” Su Rongrong wanted to go to Lu Group, but she didn’t expect that Lu Yiming was more interested in her. “That’s fine. I’ll send you the address later.” After hanging up the phone, Su Rongrong’s expression was a little… How can I put it? I clearly suffered a loss at the hands of Lu Yiming. But I can’t mention this to anyone. It is not Su Rongrong’s character to keep silent. Now I’m holding it in my heart, it’s so painful. As for now, he had to cooperate with Lu Yiming. If you want to make a career, you must have a good start. Su Rongrong and Su Yunchang had an agreement that if they failed to achieve good results, they would have to return to Su Province. Not being able to rely on the power of the family is Su Rongrong’s bottom line. After returning from her daily life, Su Rongrong took her team to conduct investigations. If you want to negotiate with Lu Yiming, you need to at least know Lu Yiming’s bottom line. However, Su Rongrong received unexpected news. The Lu Group is short of funds. Entering into multiple industries at the same time is a bit overwhelming even for the Lu Group. Su Rongrong seized this opportunity keenly. Then he dialed Lu Yiming’s cell phone. After hanging up the phone, Su Rongrong pondered for a long time. Will this guy who has no control over his words make more rude requests? At the airport, Su Rongrong almost resisted the urge to take action. The key point is that Lu Yiming’s mouth is really too rude. It’s not relevant to bring up this issue. As for Cheng Xiao. But Su Rongrong didn’t want to think about it. Maybe that bastard Lu Yiming has already succeeded? Can’t you be more reserved? What’s so good about a playboy like Lu Yiming? “Boss Su?” “Boss Su?!” “Um?” “Boss Su, I just called you a few times.” “Sorry, I was thinking about something.” “Boss Su, we have contacted the senior management of Telecom.” Why did Su Rongrong contact Telecom? The key is to test the waters. Lu Yiming guessed wrong about one thing. Su Rongrong has never contacted her uncle Gao Yan alone. Su Rongrong didn’t want to rely on the power of her family. The uncle in law is naturally also attributed to family power. Therefore, Gao Wei has not received any accurate news until now, otherwise, he would have approached Lu Group to discuss cooperation long ago. “What did the other party say?” “He was tight lipped, but I could tell he wasn’t in a good mood.” “Not in a good mood? Okay, I get it. By the way, get ready. You may have to receive an important client soon.” “Okay, I’ll set it up now.” Anyone who can be called an important customer by Mr. Su must be of extraordinary status. What does it mean that Mr. Su can lead a team independently right after graduation? The background is unfathomable. Didn’t you see that the company’s top executives were all polite to President Su? Lamenting the unfairness of fate? Come on, I’m not an angry young man. That’s how investment banking works. Background is everything. Therefore, Su Rongrong’s team members will only be more dependent on Su Rongrong, and once they achieve results, every member of the team will definitely be indispensable. Chapter 62: Negotiation, can you be serious? Gaoyuan Capital is located in Puxi, the future Xuhui Riverside, but its current location is a little remote. In 1995, there was a popular saying in Shanghai: “I would rather have a bed in Puxi than a room in Pudong.” How ridiculous this sentence will become in 20 years. Lu Yiming drove the Ferrari straight to Huanglong. The receptionist at the door looked at the handsome and wealthy Lu Yiming, and her eyes turned into heart shapes. After learning that Lu Yiming was here to see Su Rongrong, he became even more attentive. In Su Rongrong’s eyes, this scene was really… Another girl deceived by appearance. Su Rongrong, with a cold face, walked into the reception room in high heels. This royal sister’s dress made Lu Yiming’s eyes light up. I have to admit that no matter what she wears, Su Rongrong can easily handle it. “Have you seen enough?” “Rongrong, I am your guest after all.” Lu Yiming sat on the sofa, but this smile was really a prelude. “Coffee or tea.” “Coffee, the one you make yourself is the best.” “hehe.” Did you make it yourself? Aren’t you afraid of poisoning yourself? Su Rongrong gave him a free eye roll. “Handheld wireless telephone system, Lu’s Group can’t eat such a big cake.” Again, once others understand the huge benefits involved. The whole market will go crazy. It can even be said that the handheld wireless telephone system can create countless wealth myths in a short period of time. At this time, the Lu Group holds the key to wealth. There are many people with ulterior motives. If it were just the Lu Group, it would probably be difficult to defend it. “Don’t worry about that, Rongrong. This is the only five year patent right in the Chinese region. It’s written into the contract.” Again, if Lu Yiming doesn’t want to, the handheld wireless telephone system will rot in his hands and no one else can get it. “Why bother? It’s all about making money.” “You are not short of money.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Gaoyuan Capital has the strength to do so, and it can also help the Lu Group solve a lot of problems.” “I don’t believe it.” “Lu Yiming, Gaoyuan Capital has a huge network of relationships.” “It’s a pity that it’s not in the Magic City.” “you…” Yes, Su Rongrong did understand the current situation of the Lu Group, but on the other hand, Lu Yiming had already fully understood Gaoyuan Capital. The intricate relationship ultimately leads to the Su family. Do you really think of yourself as a fool? Of course, if we can cooperate with the Su family, it would indeed be a good choice. After all, the Su family has a good reputation. “I still say that, Su Rongrong, what makes you want to impress me?” “There’s something wrong with Lu’s funding chain.” “Just because of this?” “Lu Yiming, your working capital has been used up. If you want to develop the handheld wireless phone system in a short period of time, you must invest more money. If you rely solely on word of mouth, the progress will be seriously delayed, which is inconsistent with your original intention.” “The analysis is correct, but I have five years. I can still make a lot of money if I waste half a year.” Lu Yiming smiled slightly. When it comes to negotiation, Su Rongrong is still a little young. Su Rongrong didn’t expect that Lu Yiming would be so difficult to deal with. Su Rongrong’s self proclaimed trump card was shattered by Lu Yiming’s few words. An unprecedented feeling of discouragement arose in Su Rongrong’s heart. “Another point, if I sign a contract with any of the three major operators, do you think the bank will still cut off the loan? They would like me to borrow money.” “The three major operators are not so easy to fool.” “Shall we make a bet?” “What?” “I’m going to release the news about the handheld wireless phone system now. Which operator do you think will come to me first?” Su Rongrong was speechless. Well, Su Rongrong couldn’t afford this bet. Looking at the confident Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong had no idea what to do. “So, you are here to mock me today?” Su Rongrong was very angry. All the preparations she had made seemed like a joke to Lu Yiming. I am actually not as good as a dandy boy. Su Rongrong’s pride was gone at this moment. “Don’t cry.” “Who’s crying!” Lu Yiming: I haven’t cried yet, but my eyes are red. Well, Su Rongrong is really not easy to be teased nowadays. Yes, he just graduated from college, and to be able to achieve this level is already considered a gifted person. It’s a pity that I met myself in the first battle. Failure is understandable. “Let’s talk about something practical. What are you willing to pay?” “Lu Yiming, you wish!” “No, you Gaoyuan Capital don’t want to get something for nothing, do you?” “you…” Gaoyuan Capital, not myself. This is the key point. So, what Lu Yiming meant by “payment” was the price that Gaoyuan Capital could pay, not himself? Su Rongrong finally came to her senses at this moment. As he looked up in surprise, he saw a smile on Lu Yiming’s lips. So cunning! Have you been teasing yourself from the beginning? This shameless guy! Although she hated Lu Yiming with a vengeance, Su Rongrong felt relieved. This annoying guy actually didn’t mean that. I misunderstood. No, it was obviously this bastard who deliberately led the way. “What? Could it be that Gaoyuan Capital has never made a plan? If that’s the case, I won’t consider cooperating with them.” Lu Yiming changed into a comfortable position. Start leading the negotiations. It can only be said that Su Rongrong has fallen into Lu Yiming’s rhythm. The initiative in the negotiations was completely in Lu Yiming’s hands. “Of course not. 30 million, accounting for 51 percent. Gaoyuan Capital is responsible for solving the problems and providing support from neighboring provinces.” “51 percent?” Lu Yiming almost burst out laughing. Unexpectedly, Su Rongrong has such a big appetite. Well, this is trying to pick peaches for free. In this case, you can still state the conditions with a clear conscience. Why didn’t I realize that Su Rongrong was so shameless. “Why are you staring at me?” After Su Rongrong finished speaking, she found that Lu Yiming was staring at her closely. This made Su Rongrong very uncomfortable. “Look how thick your skin is.” “Lu Yiming!” “If you were me, would you agree to such a request?” “meeting.” “Sure enough, your face is really thick.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Be realistic and forget about 51.” “You ask for a high price, but you pay low.” “Su Rongrong, are you lying to me?” Lu Yiming could see that Su Rongrong lacked experience in this area. “Lu Yiming, 30 million can solve your urgent needs.” “Touch me clearly.” “you…” I just want to ask, could you please keep your mouth shut? She could feel it clearly, which reminded Su Rongrong of that day again! You, Lu Yiming, touched me all over and even gave me the quilt… Chapter 63 Are you asking for clichés? “Where’s Su Rongrong?” “Boss Wang, Boss Su is meeting with guests.” “Meeting guests? Tsk, you’re quite active.” Mr. Wang, Wang Lan, a senior investor at Gaoyuan Capital, has led a team independently for six years and won the gold medal for the best investment case in China last year. He is considered a leader in the investment world. Wang Lan has been at Gaoyuan Capital long enough and has a wide network of contacts. At Gaoyuan Capital, Wang Lan can be said to be the person with the most say besides the boss. To be honest, at Gaoyuan Capital, Wang Lan has already got everything. However, Su Rongrong’s sudden appearance this time made Wang Lan sense a hint of crisis. Yes, it is a crisis. Logically speaking, Su Rongrong is just a newcomer in the investment industry. He is no match for Wang Lan in every aspect. But as soon as Wang Lan saw Su Rongrong for the first time, he became alert. Anyone who works in investment has to endure hardships to make it. Don’t underestimate Wang Lan’s current glory. But when I first entered the industry, I suffered a lot. In order to get a business deal, Wang Lan can stay at a client company for days and nights. This is where Wang Lan fights hard. After switching to Gaoyuan Capital, Wang Lan was valued and gained a lot of resources. He is doing just like a fish in water. Just one step away, just one step away, and I would become a partner of the company. There is also the position of director that Wang Lan dreams of day and night. But at this circumstance, Su Rongrong appeared. Wang Lan does not deny that background is very important in the capital market, especially in the investment circle. But you can’t do it so obviously. What qualifications does Su Rongrong have? Not only can he lead a team independently after being parachuted in, but he also becomes a company partner without any successful investment cases? this… How could Wang Lan not be angry? He took away everything that originally belonged to her. This made Wang Lan feel very uncomfortable. The employees of Gaoyuan Capital all understood that Mr. Wang was in a very bad mood during this period. Even the smallest thing could cause Mr. Wang to fly into a rage. As for the source, there is no need to explain. This Su Rongrong is really a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger. On the third day in office, he led the team to live a simple life. I originally thought that he was going to do something earth shattering. However, within a day, he returned in disgrace. This instantly became a joke in the company. Wang Lan, in particular, seized this opportunity to speak up in front of the boss. I have the ability, but unfortunately, I lack experience. Implicitly and implicitly, he was belittling Su Rongrong. If someone else made such a mistake, the boss should at least express his attitude, even if he doesn’t ask about it. But this time, the boss actually laughed it off himself. What does it mean? Just let it go? Do you still want the company’s rules? Wang Lan had an angry look on her face. She walked out of her boss’ office and became angrier the more she thought about it. Well, since the boss doesn’t care, I have to be the bad guy myself. But Su Rongrong was not found. After asking, I found out that Su Rongrong was actually meeting a guest. Wang Lan sneered and asked, “Meeting guests? What kind of guests?” Could it be that he directed and acted in this movie himself? Without paying attention to the staff’s explanation, he went straight to the reception area. I was thinking of just pushing the door open and walking in. But unexpectedly I heard a familiar voice. Very familiar. Where have you heard it? Wang Lan wanted to stretch out his hand, but it stopped in mid air. Through the crack in the door, I saw Lu Yiming sitting on the sofa. Is it him? As a senior investor, Wang Lan has a comprehensive understanding of the businessmen in Shanghai. As for the Lu Group, as a leading private enterprise, it is naturally the focus of Wang Lan’s attention. When Lu Yiming was in college, he accompanied Lu Aijun to some dinner parties. Wang Lan naturally recognized the future helmsman of the Lu Group at a glance. Lu Yiming? Lu Group. Su Rongrong’s guest turned out to be him? Could it be that the person behind Su Rongrong is the Lu Group? If this is really the case, it is understandable that the boss gives face. Maybe the company and Lu Group have reached some kind of agreement. And this Su Rongrong is the key person sent by Lu Group to the company to coordinate the connection. At this moment, Wang Lan thought of all kinds of possibilities. “Tsk, I’m really lucky.” Wang Lan spat inwardly. Given Lu Yiming’s identity, Wang Lan naturally couldn’t act rashly. However, curiosity drove Wang Lan to stay at the door. “Lu Yiming, this is our bottom line. Moreover, according to my estimation, your agreement with NTT definitely did not exceed this price. You made 30 million for nothing. What else are you not satisfied with?” “Pah pah pah…” As soon as Su Rongrong finished speaking, Lu Yiming started clapping. This made Su Rongrong speechless. Since they met, Lu Yiming had never played his cards normally. What’s going on this time? “Yes, you guessed it right.” “You agree?” “Agree? If it’s you, well, I’d better not ask. You’re too shameless.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Is this considered a personal attack? “Indeed, I admit what you said. With an investment of 3,000 in a short period of time and the subsequent operations handed over to Gao Yuan Investment, I can indeed make money without doing anything.” “Then what are you hesitating about?” “Rongrong, have you calculated how much you can earn from this investment?” “certainly.” “Then I’m all ears.” “The technology cost will not be less than 10 million. Based on this base, the profit will be more than 1 billion.” “Tsk tsk, don’t play tricks on me. The base is 10 million, and the basic profit is 1 billion, not including the dividends from operators and product lines.” “Lu Yiming, some relationships need to be maintained. What I’m talking about is net profit.” Su Rongrong immediately retorted. But, I feel a little guilty about saying this. Well, Su Rongrong admitted that she had indeed embezzled a lot. I originally thought that Lu Yiming had not thought of these things, but I didn’t expect that the other party already knew them all. “Everything has risks. Gaoyuan Capital not only shares these risks, but also makes up for the lack of Lu’s capital chain. In any case, you are making money.” Su Rongrong is still emphasizing her point of view. Of course, judging from the current market, the expectations can be fully achieved. Su Rongrong is still very confident. “Then should I thank you?” “No, it’s mutually beneficial.” “Rongrong, I didn’t have much confidence at first, but now that I see you are full of confidence, it seems that my bet was right.” “you…” Su Rongrong: So after talking for so long, you, Lu Yiming, are just trying to trick yourself? Lu Yiming: (● ◡ ● ) This is called all is fair in war. Besides, Lu Yiming knows the future of handheld wireless telephone systems better than anyone else. The market boom far exceeded expectations. Even third and fourth tier agents can make a lot of money. If you give up such lucrative profits, you will become a laughing stock. Of course, Lu Yiming did not deny Su Rongrong’s opinion. Eating alone is impossible under any circumstances. Instead, it is particularly important to choose a strong partner from the beginning. Chapter 64 I’ll kill you with my weapon Lu Yiming did not deny that the Su family was indeed his best choice. But the key is how big the Su family’s appetite is. “Twenty percent.” “What?” Su Rongrong couldn’t believe what she heard. “30 million, 20 percent, I’ll take you to play.” “Lu Yiming, you are crazy!” Su Rongrong’s face turned completely black. She asked for a sky high price and asked for a low return. This was true, but did she say that 30 million accounted for 20%? You think you are a fool. “You just said that the user base is 10 million. What if it is 100 million?” “Lu Yiming, don’t let your imagination run wild.” Su Rongrong was so angry that she laughed. 100 million? Are you, Lu Yiming, daydreaming? The target of 10 million was boldly guessed by Su Rongrong. But Lu Yiming was different. He just mentioned the user base of 100 million. What is the total population of China? “You need to take a long term view and not limit yourself to big cities.” “Lu Yiming, landlines are not yet universally available!” “That’s why I made you bolder.” “you…” “With handheld wireless phone systems replacing landlines, the user ceiling will be much higher.” “That’s just your assumption.” “How do you know if you don’t try?” At this moment, Su Rongrong was speechless. How do you know if you don’t try? Yeah, what if? Maybe this is really possible. Su Rongrong: Wait, why do I feel like I’ve been trapped by Lu Yiming? “No way. Even if you say it’s a flower, 30 million for 20% is not realistic.” “The opportunity is in front of you.” “you…” Lu Yiming adjusted his sitting position and felt good about Su Rongrong. The two of them remained in a stalemate for a long time, neither of them breaking the silence. “Huh… 40 percent, that’s the bottom line.” In the end, Su Rongrong couldn’t stand the pressure anymore and spoke first. “Twenty one percent.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I lowered my price by 10%, and you only raised it by 1%? Lu Yiming, you are not the one who bullies others like this! “Can you be more generous? Are you still a man?” “You don’t know if I’m a man or not?” You know, at that time, I almost… Su Rongrong: You shameless bastard, how dare you mention this? The anger completely erupted! The good manners that Su Rongrong had cultivated were completely destroyed in front of Lu Yiming. “Let’s talk it over, don’t use force!” “fart!” Su Rongrong could no longer hold back and pounced on Lu Yiming. This scene was so wonderful in the eyes of Wang Lan who was outside the door. “Ahem, this is so exciting.” However, Su Rongrong seemed to have misjudged the situation. First of all, I am a woman, so in terms of gender, I am the one who suffers the loss. After pouncing on Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong had no idea what to do next. Could it be that I really was like a shrew, scratching Lu Yiming’s face until it was covered with bruises? Although she had this idea, Su Rongrong really couldn’t do it. Riding on Lu Yiming’s body, I was dumbfounded. At such a close distance, they were just staring at each other. The key point is that for self protection, Lu Yiming subconsciously reached forward with his hands to push Su Rongrong away. What a coincidence, this angle is just… He felt an attack on his chest and looked at Lu Yiming’s mischievous hands. this… Time seemed to stand still. “Ahem, if I say this is just a coincidence, would you believe it?” “I believe you, big head ghost!” Shameless, pervert, villain! He used all the words he could use to greet Lu Yiming. “Let go!” If Su Rongrong hadn’t been afraid of being misunderstood by outsiders, she would have shouted out loud long ago. “good.” “ah!” Without Lu Yiming’s obstruction, Su Rongrong fell into Lu Yiming’s arms. “I admit that I’m good, but you don’t have to be so anxious to throw yourself into my arms.” Su Rongrong blinked and tried to reflect on the meaning of Lu Yiming’s words. Throw yourself into his arms? “Go to hell!” “calm!” We agreed to negotiate, so why did we end up fighting? The key point is that Lu Yiming’s expression shows that he is enjoying it. “It’s a big loss.” Wang Lan outside the door was also speechless. Although she was unhappy with Su Rongrong, as a woman herself, from the perspective of an outsider, she could see that Su Rongrong had really suffered a huge loss this time. You suffer losses without knowing it. This young Mr. Lu is quite resourceful. At this time, Su Rongrong finally calmed down. “Let go.” When Su Rongrong regained consciousness, she found that her hands were held by Lu Yiming. No matter how hard she tried, she could not break free. And the current posture is a bit too embarrassing. His entire body was riding on Lu Yiming’s waist. This action is really… If someone saw me, how would I face people? She wanted to struggle to get up, but Lu Yiming didn’t let go. During the stalemate, if he used force, he would hit Lu Yiming’s lower abdomen. this… When had Su Rongrong ever experienced such a scene? The whole person was extremely stiff. “Lu Yiming, what on earth are you going to do!” “Very resilient.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I accidentally spoke my true feelings out loud. “abnormal.” “To be honest, you took the initiative.” “I…” “You can let go, just go down obediently.” Lu Yiming said that his patience was limited. You, Su Rongrong, have repeatedly challenged my bottom line. Don’t you really consider yourself a man? “Let go.” Su Rongrong knew that if she continued to argue like this, she would only suffer the consequences. Although he cursed Lu Yiming in his heart, the most important thing now was to get out. Lu Yiming let go as he was told. Su Rongrong was just about to get up. But when I feel myself exerting force, it’s obvious… Lu Yiming, you bastard! I… Lu Yiming! We’re not done yet. Su Rongrong is not a fool, she naturally knows what this is! Lu Yiming was also very embarrassed. Well, just now you were questioning whether you were a man. Now I can tell you that you are a man, and you are full of energy. Frightened, Su Rongrong stood up immediately, but she used too much force and lost her balance again. Lu Yiming was not prepared either, and Su Rongrong’s gaze in his eyes was infinitely magnified. The next moment. “Kissing now?” Wang Lan outside the door was completely dumbfounded. That’s amazing, the disciple is better than the master. I’m afraid I can’t even do this kind of thing to control a man. It seems that I underestimated Su Rongrong. Yes, we kissed. Lu Yiming said that his dream had come true. And this time, it was Su Rongrong who took the initiative. Should I take this opportunity to stick out my tongue? French kiss? Uh, forget it. Su Rongrong’s eyes were murderous. Lu Yiming subconsciously raised his hands in surrender. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… The man in front of me had an innocent expression, as if everything was caused by himself! “where did you go?” Su Rongrong struggled to get up and walked straight out the door without saying a word. “I’ll kill you with my weapon!” Lu Yiming: It seems that we can’t reach an agreement today. Chapter 65: The Dandy from the Capital When Su Rongrong returned to the reception room again, she had a “weapon” in her hand. It seems that what I just said was not a joke. If Lu Yiming didn’t leave, the best destination for this wrench would be Lu Yiming’s head. At this moment, Su Rongrong was so angry that her eyes turned red. My first kiss was gone just like that? Lu Yiming: Ahem, to be honest, when I was reborn, your first kiss seemed to have already been… Well, it’s better not to provoke him. “Where are the people! Lu Yiming, we are not done yet!” Su Rongrong gnashed her teeth in hatred and turned back to calculate her horoscope to see if her horoscope was incompatible with Lu Yiming’s. Being together is always a mess. As for Lu Yiming, he had already fled in his Ferrari. However, the lingering fragrance on her lips really made Lu Yiming linger on it. “It shouldn’t be that serious. After all, she was the one who took the initiative.” Lu Yiming muttered to himself as he stepped on the accelerator. At this time, the maintenance worker of Gaoyuan Capital looked puzzled. I just went to the bathroom, how come the wrench was gone? In such a big company, is there anyone who steals wrenches? No, the tools are gone, how can I repair it? “Li Li, it’s me.” “What instructions does Mr. Lu have?” “How’s the contact with the telecommunications department going?” “Still waiting.” Li Li came with a project and was full of confidence, but she didn’t expect that she would end up with nothing. Mr. Gao couldn’t be found at all. The secretary said that Mr. Gao has an emergency meeting in the afternoon, but if the meeting conflicts, will he keep the secretary? This is problematic in itself. “No need to wait.” “No?” “I won’t see you today anyway.” “Mr. Lu, what do you mean?” “Tactics missing.” “Understood.” Li Li understood it immediately. So that’s how it is. It seems that the Su family is still unwilling to give up. Lu Yiming hung up the phone with a smile. Okay, that’s smart. You’re not rejecting me anyway, so it’s okay for me to disappear for a while. Of course, Gao Yan also bears a lot of pressure by doing this. If Lu Yiming is really pushed into a corner, it is not impossible to give up the cooperation with Telecom. Although China Mobile and China Unicom both have their own mobile phone businesses, they are probably also very interested in the resources in Lu Yiming’s hands. Telecom is indeed the best partner, but the other party must also be self aware. “I’ll give you three days. Don’t blame me for being rude when the time comes.” Lu Yiming sneered. I was originally thinking about going back to the company. After all, I met Su Rongrong today, so the matter of finding out the mastermind behind the scenes that I promised Su Rongrong must be put on the agenda. At least I am a man of my words. But at this moment Lu Yiming’s phone rang. “Sister Qian?” “My stinky little brother still knows who I am. I haven’t shown up for so long, I thought he had forgotten about me.” The tone is lazy and casual, and only Sister Qian can integrate the charming voice into laziness. I have to say, this voice is really unique and highly recognizable. “How can that be possible? I’ve been busy with my career lately.” “Yes, you are a busy person, and you snatched away all the people I liked.” Needless to say, who Liang Qian was referring to, Cheng Xiao was still in the office collecting new materials. “Okay, I was wrong. I’ll set up a table for Sister Qian some other day as an apology to you.” “It’s better to do it today than today.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What does it mean? “Why? No time?” There was a slight hint of disappointment in his tone. “How can I do that? Sister Qian invited me, even if I have to stab you, I will come. But Sister Qian, give me a hint, what is the game tonight?” In the previous life, when I was down and out, Liang Qian extended a helping hand to me. Just based on this point, if Liang Qian really had something to do, he would definitely go through fire and water for her without hesitation. But, you also have to prepare yourself. “A few friends from the capital are very annoying. It would be best if my brother is willing to help me deal with them.” “Understood. Time and place. I will definitely support my sister.” “Transparent.” Sister Qian hung up the phone with a smile. At critical moments, it is still quite reliable. It’s worth it that I love this younger brother so much. At this time, Lu Yiming, driving a Ferrari, happened to pass by Nanjing East Road. On the huge billboard, an advertisement for diamonds is so obvious. 【Diamonds are forever. 】 “Hey…” When seeing this advertisement, Lu Yiming suddenly remembered that today seemed to be a special day. Subconsciously, I drove the Ferrari into the shopping mall next door. Half an hour later, Lu Yiming returned to the car carrying two shopping bags. Sister Qian has also sent the address to Lu Yiming’s mobile phone. 【Xi Family Garden】 “Hey, it seems that Sister Qian really doesn’t like friends from the capital.” Lu Yiming knows Sister Qian well enough. It’s not that Xi Family Garden is not high end enough. In Shanghai in 1995, the private rooms in Xi Family Garden were already considered top notch. Far more bustling than the Huanghe Road street. A private bungalow loft with excellent privacy. But for Sister Qian, the more unfamiliar the person is, the more high end the dinner will be arranged for them. If she were to invite Lu Yiming to dinner, Sister Qian would choose the spicy hot pot on the roadside. This shows that Sister Qian really treats Lu Yiming as her own. Not fussy about details and extremely casual. As for the others. Sorry, Sister Qian is not that easy to approach. Back then in the bar, how many young men in Shanghai wanted to taste Sister Qian’s fiery red lips, but what was the result? Haha, I guess Sister Qian has left him with a psychological trauma. At this time, an official Audi 100 car had already driven into the private villa in Xi’s Garden. “Wow, this place is quite impressive.” There were only two people in the vehicle, and their ages were similar, both around 25 or 26 years old. At this age, being able to drive an official car with a military license plate must have some connections. “What’s so magnificent? No matter how magnificent it is, can it compare to Diaoyutai?” “That’s different. We can’t go there often.” What is the level of Diaoyutai State Guesthouse? That is a place for receiving foreign dignitaries, so it is naturally different. Although the conversation was ordinary, the superiority in the tone was unmistakable. He talks about Diaoyutai all the time, as if it were his own home. Well, I’ve come to Shanghai to show off. No wonder Sister Qian looks annoyed. After parking the Audi, the two young men got out. “Be more friendly for a while. After all, it’s Liang Qian whom I want to pursue. Don’t ruin my show.” “Come on, there’s nothing wrong with the girls in our capital. You’re the only one who’s special. You, Master Zhang, were once a well known figure in the city, but now you’ve even come all the way to the Magic City to chase me.” If Lu Yiming heard this, he would probably laugh for quite a while. It turned out that these two gentlemen were performing a stand up comedy. Chapter 66 The pretty boy is here to mess things up “Liang Qian, long time no see.” Open your arms and just want a hug. It was a pity that Liang Qian, who was sitting in the main seat, had no intention of getting up except to sneer. Master Zhang looked embarrassed, smiled awkwardly, and put his hand down awkwardly. “Hey, Liang Qian, haven’t seen you for 2 years.” The person next to me was quite normal and greeted me with a smile. “I haven’t seen you since you joined the army.” “Hey, they are all busy with their own development, unlike you, who is already a big boss now.” “That’s right. Liang Qian is the one with good vision. Take us to your bar someday so we can broaden our horizons.” “There will be a chance.” It was a blatant perfunctory response. Liang Qian looked at her watch while talking. Liang Qian: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… You naughty little brother, you said you would come to help, but what time is it already? Okay, you dare to leave your sister here alone, you will be in trouble later. “It’s getting late, how about we get started?” The two of them took their seats and the cold dishes were already on the table. A bottle of Feitian Moutai is a token of sincerity. “Wait a minute, there are guests.” “Anyone else?” “What do you mean? I can’t bring my friends?” “Of course that’s not what I meant. It just happened a little suddenly. I originally thought it was just a small gathering.” In response to Liang Qian’s question, Master Zhang immediately began to explain. As for who the guest is, it is not the point for Mr. Zhang. The point is that Mr. Zhang only wants to be alone with Liang Qian, and even the person next to him seems redundant. At this moment, the door of the private room was pushed open and Lu Yiming walked in with a smile on his face. “Sorry, I’m late.” When Master Zhang saw Lu Yiming, his brows couldn’t help but frown. Male? What’s the relationship with Liang Qian? All the friends in the circle knew that he was interested in Liang Qian. If Liang Qian had not suddenly gone abroad that year, I might have confessed my feelings to her. Originally, I came to see Liang Qian today in the hope of finding an opportunity. As a result, an uninvited guest came. That’s not right. I asked around and found out that Liang Qian is currently single. “Yeah, you’re finally here.” Liang Qian, who had been sitting motionless in the main seat, immediately stood up to greet her. That’s not all, but he directly took Lu Yiming’s arm. She didn’t even care about her own height and had already rubbed it on Lu Yiming’s arm. Seeing this scene, Master Zhang’s eyes instantly became bloodshot. this… What does this mean? Who is this man? You dare to snatch my favorite daughter, are you tired of living? ! Mr. Zhang’s friends also looked unhappy. They felt embarrassed as their brother was slapped in the face. “Brother, let me introduce you. This is Zhang Bing, and this is Haiyang, a friend from the same circle, my brother Lu Yiming.” “younger brother?!” Mr. Zhang’s hope was rekindled at this moment. If it’s his younger brother, it should be okay, as it can be considered as intimacy between siblings. No, wait, when did Liang Qian have a younger brother? “Haha, it’s not a kiss.” Mr. Zhang: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Haiyang: Are you being teased? “Sister Qian, it’s ok, you’re using me as a shield right now?” Lu Yiming smiled and said in Sister Qian’s ear while turning sideways. “Help me in an emergency. Besides, you promised me at the beginning.” “I didn’t expect it to be so exciting right from the start. Look at the look in that guy’s eyes. He really wants to kill me.” “Don’t be afraid. We don’t have any big backgrounds. We are all bureau level cadres. We can’t cause any big waves.” Well, Liang Qian told Lu Yiming the truth directly. They are just the children of bureau level cadres, nothing special. “What are you two whispering about?” As soon as Lu Yiming arrived, Liang Qian was busy chatting with this pretty boy and left Master Zhang aside. No man can stand it. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Pretty boy? He was bragging about himself. “Liang Qian, this is boring. It’s a rare opportunity for me and Brother Zhang to come here, but you’re chatting with your brother. This is not the way to entertain guests.” Haiyang was even more unhappy. Even in the old city, he and his brother were big names, but they were looked down upon when they came to the Magic City. Who can stand this? “Sorry, I haven’t seen Sister Qian for a long time. I chatted for a while.” Liang Qian was about to speak, but Lu Yiming next to her spoke directly. As he said this, he pulled his hands away from Liang Qian’s embrace. Liang Qian: What do you mean by stinky little brother? That’s not fair. Liang Qian was about to make amends, but Lu Yiming was even more ruthless and directly grabbed Liang Qian’s slender waist. Liang Qian: Beautiful, my love for my stinky little brother is not in vain, he can help me at the critical moment. Liang Qian had already noticed from the corner of her eye that Master Zhang’s face had turned pale with anger. As for Haiyang, he stood up suddenly and glared at Lu Yiming. This pretty boy is here to cause trouble! “Hey, why are you standing up? We are all friends, there is no need to be so serious. Sit down and prepare to eat.” Liang Qian is very good at playing dumb. Haiyang was so angry that he couldn’t even vent his anger. Lu Yiming secretly gave him a thumbs up. “How come you came so late, little brother? You made the guests wait for so long.” “Sorry, I bought a gift on the way here.” “For me?” “Of course, only our sister Qian is worthy of her.” As he spoke, Lu Yiming took out a long box from his pocket. The velvet packaging makes it look like a high end product. This thing is usually used to hold jewelry. Under Liang Qian’s expectant gaze, Lu Yiming opened the long box and a diamond necklace came into view. “hiss…” Even Haiyang couldn’t help but take a breath at this moment. It’s not that I haven’t seen the world, but this diamond is quite big. “I originally wanted to buy a bigger one, but unfortunately there are only 3 carats. Sister Qian, please don’t despise it.” “How could that be? I like everything my brother gives me.” Surprise, what a surprise. You know what, this naughty little brother is really good at dealing with things. As soon as the diamond necklace came out, it instantly overshadowed Zhang Bing. Even though these two are children of cadres, how much is the salary of a bureau level cadre? The value of this necklace is no less than 100,000. 100,000 yuan is not a small sum of money in this era. Of course, Zhang Bing could afford 100,000 yuan, but he didn’t have the courage to buy a necklace as a gift for someone. It’s not that Zhang Bing didn’t prepare gifts. He was planning to give them out at the appropriate time. But as soon as Lu Yiming made a move, he shocked the other party. The necklace worth thousands of dollars in his pocket was really not worth showing off. One can imagine the look on Mr. Zhang’s face at this moment. I actually look like a clown. Fortunately, I didn’t act on impulse, otherwise it would be even more embarrassing. “Shall I bring it for my sister?” “certainly.” These two people act as if no one is around, it’s so annoying. “Ahem, remember to claim reimbursement.” “Would you like to pledge your love to me?” “Forget it, real money is better.” “It’s boring.” In Zhang Bing’s opinion, this kind of interaction is just a flirtation. I am just redundant. Chapter 67: Playing a dandy? Just be restrained. “Oh, sorry, you two, we are used to quarreling with Sister Qian.” When Lu Yiming turned around, he saw Zhang Bing’s face was as dark as Bao Gong’s. I guess I won’t even need to put on makeup when I go for audition this time. Lu Yiming doesn’t need to act at all when pretending to be a dandy young man. He is just afraid of overdoing it, so he just needs to hold back. “You’re welcome. It’s rare for Sister Qian to invite me. Usually, I don’t have good wine and food to treat me. This time, I’ll take advantage of you two.” As he spoke, he directly picked up the dishes and took the lead. “Look at what you said, it seems like I have treated you harshly in the past.” Not to mention, Sister Qian is also a dramatic actress. The little resentment in his eyes is so vivid. “Dude, it’s over, what does that mean?” Haiyang couldn’t stand it anymore, so he slammed the chopsticks in his hand. “Hey, Sister Qian, your friend has quite a bad temper.” “You thief, why don’t you ask around? Your master Hai is the one who has the final say in the city. When will it be your turn to show off in front of him?” The troublemakers in Beijing always like to cause trouble. They start fighting as soon as they disagree. “Haiyang, what do you mean? You don’t want to give me face?” “Liang Qian, Zhang Bing and I treat you as a friend, and you brought this kid here to piss us off?” When facing Liang Qian, Haiyang’s hot temper immediately subsided a little. It can be seen that she is still quite afraid of Sister Qian towards Liang Qian. “What did I do to you? You came, I treated you with good food and wine, and introduced my friends to you. What’s wrong? Did I let you down? My friend didn’t say anything rude, did he? You have no right to bully him?” “No, Sister Qian, we have a revolutionary friendship. Are you just helping this pretty boy?” “Girlface?” Liang Qian was so angry that she laughed. Haiyang had no vision at all. Well, it’s all in vain. “Hey, this is the second time you’ve called me a gigolo.” “Whatever, I was the one calling you grandpa.” “Sister Qian, why don’t you just take me in and experience the joy of being a gigolo?” “Puff…” Liang Qian originally thought that Lu Yiming would not be able to control himself and would make a big fuss, so she wanted to persuade him not to make a big deal out of it. As it turned out, I underestimated Lu Yiming’s shamelessness. This is asking for support from myself. “Okay, 200,000 a month, is that enough?” “That’s a bit stingy.” Lu Yiming curled his lips. After all, I am a person who negotiates tens of millions of dollars in business. If I fall into poverty, I can consider it. Anyway, I won’t suffer any loss. Although Lu Yiming was a talkative person, at that moment, he clearly saw the seriousness in Liang Qian’s eyes. Well, this scared Lu Yiming. Well, don’t take it too seriously. I’m just helping out for free, without even any appearance fee. “You still don’t want to?” Unexpectedly, Liang Qian was even more ruthless and put her right hand directly on Lu Yiming’s thigh. From this angle, you can attack the ground at any time. “Little white face, don’t be so proud, if you have the ability, go out and practice.” This time, Haiyang was completely taken aback. He stood up abruptly and was ready to fight with Lu Yiming. “Okay, it’s a different era now, civilized people, sit down and put away your old tricks. Do you really think you are old timers?” Lu Yiming’s expression changed and he became serious in an instant. This contrast completely confused Haiyang. “Haiyang, that’s enough. I just took it as a joke. Don’t turn your head away.” “Liang Qian, you clearly know that Bingzi…” “That’s enough.” Haiyang wanted to speak again, but Zhang Bing, who had been silent all this time, suddenly shouted angrily, directed at Haiyang. “No, I’m just trying to help you.” “It’s my own business. It was just a joke. Don’t take it seriously, brother. We are used to joking with Liang Qian.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Hey, this Zhang Bing is quite a character, he can bend and stretch himself. “Okay, I just revealed it. Let’s get to know Lu Yiming again.” “Zhang Bing.” As for Haiyang, he sat down and sulked. “Let’s eat.” He had acted enough. No matter how thick skinned Zhang Bing was, he was too embarrassed to bring up the subject again. Liang Qian’s behavior was so obvious that even a fool would be able to see it. After the meal started, the atmosphere became much more harmonious. Lu Yiming didn’t drink, after all, he had important things to do later. Haiyang and Zhang Bing were very depressed. A whole bottle of Feitian Moutai went into their stomachs. “Tell me, why did you think of looking for me this time?” If someone said that Zhang Bing came here purely to confess his love, Liang Qian would never believe it even if she was beaten to death. The two of them haven’t really reached this level. It is simply impossible to give up everything for yourself. “What else can I do? I can’t make it in Sijiu City, so I came to you for help.” Seeing that Zhang Bing was too embarrassed to speak, Haiyang directly stated his purpose. Of course, to say that he couldn’t make it was a bit modest. After all, he was the son of a cadre, and it wouldn’t be difficult for him to make a living no matter where he was. After graduating that year, Liang Qian went abroad to study further. Zhang Bing joined the government, while Haiyang joined the army. My family had already paved the way for me in the army, and if I kept on hanging around, I would at least be a cadre in the future. But in the end, Haiyang couldn’t stand it anymore and had a conflict with someone just before the evaluation. The other party also had a background, and in the end no one ended up well. Seeing that it was impossible to become a cadre that year, Haiyang was so angry that he simply kicked out and retired from the army. After returning to Sijiu City, he went to find Zhang Bing. Zhang Bing was not happy working in the office. Working from nine to five, either drinking tea or reading newspapers, this is not the life I originally wanted. The two of them discussed it and decided that since neither of them felt comfortable, they might as well go into the sea. Taking advantage of the explosive economic growth and relying on family connections, I can at least make some money. Zhang Bing resigned immediately, which made the old man in the family very angry. After going into the sea, the two realized that they had thought too simply at the beginning. Doing business is not that easy. Although the two had a relationship, they still paid a lot of “tuition fees” in the beginning. Fortunately, after learning some lessons, I finally made it through. I thought I would get rich soon, but I suffered a huge loss in the construction business again. I won’t go into the details of the matter. Anyway, if it weren’t for their family’s connections, these two would probably have been given a suspended sentence. Seeing that he couldn’t make it in Sijiu City, he immediately thought of trying his luck somewhere else. I have saved some money from doing business in the past two years, and the total is nearly 1 million. Now, knowing that Liang Qian was doing very well in Shanghai, Zhang Bing already had a crush on Liang Qian. So I bought two train tickets and headed straight to Shanghai. But I didn’t expect this kind of thing to happen. “Hey, why didn’t you tell me earlier? We are old classmates. I will help if I can.” As long as they are just friends, Liang Qian is willing to help. As for Lu Yiming, he should eat and drink as he should. Chapter 68: Arrogant at First and Respectful Later “In other words, all your current assets combined are only worth 1 million?” Yes, in this era, 1 million is not a small amount. But it is not realistic to say how big a storm can be caused in Shanghai. As for the nonsense that there is gold everywhere in Shanghai, it may be okay to fool children, but we are all adults now, so we should be realistic. “If there are any difficulties, just pretend we were not here.” Haiyang was also unwilling to embarrass Liang Qian. No matter what, he still couldn’t let it go. “That’s not what I meant.” Liang Qian did open a bar and made a lot of money. But when it comes to investment, Liang Qian doesn’t really have any good channels. As for taking out the 1 million to open another bar. It doesn’t seem realistic either. Not to mention that it is difficult to rent a good storefront with 1 million. High end decoration and drinks all cost money. Moreover, when you open a business, don’t think about making money back in the first three months. It requires continuous investment. As a person who has been through it, Liang Qian understands how difficult it is to start a business. Besides, I am not cut out for business. I am just bringing the foreign model back to China. Plus, I do have a lot of spare money on hand. That’s why it can be so successful. “Brother, don’t just think about eating. Let’s think of a solution together.” When it comes to doing business, there is always a ready made one around you. “Hmm? You guys are talking about business, why should I butt in on this?” Well, Lu Yiming really put in the acting and really regarded himself as a pretty boy. He never spoke unless he should. “Okay, let’s install it with my sister, right?” “Liang Qian, if it doesn’t work, forget it. What can this pretty boy do?” Haiyang was still holding his breath, because he was unhappy with Lu Yiming. “You heard it too. Even if I wanted to help, they wouldn’t accept it. Why bother?” “Haiyang, shut up.” Liang Qian glared at Haiyang, and he felt so aggrieved. To be honest, if I didn’t really have no other choice, I wouldn’t have been so embarrassed as to ask Liang Qian for help. “Do you know who he is?” “Who else could it be?” “Tsk, do you know that the Lu Group is the young master of the Lu Group? You really don’t take him seriously. If you don’t know the Lu Group, then don’t do business in the Magic City. You can’t afford to lose this person.” “Sister Qian, you are so mean. You just exposed my past.” Well, I came here to help, but instead I turned around and sold myself out. That’s not fair. “Alright, brother, they were wrong just now. To be honest, as long as it’s not that, I can’t just stand by and watch them die.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… You have become the good guy, well, it’s because Sister Qian has done me a favor. As for Haiyang and Zhang Bing at this time, they felt like a thousand horses were trampling over them in their hearts. The guy I thought was a pretty boy turned out to be the young master of Lu Group. I have actually heard of the Lu Group, the largest private enterprise in Magic City. Even in the Forbidden City, it is quite famous. It is said that there is a big boss backing the Lu Group. As for who this big boss is, there are many different opinions. Anyway, it’s not comparable to what we have at home. Haiyang and Zhang Bing looked at each other. This time they were really embarrassed. However, the opportunity is right in front of us. If you don’t seize the opportunity, you will be the only one to regret it. Haiyang wanted to slap himself in the face, and blamed himself for being too impulsive just now. He also said that he would go out and practice alone. With their strength in Shanghai, they don’t even need to look at me straight in the eye. Now, the boasting has been exposed. “Mr. Lu…” At this moment, Haiyang gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and without caring about his reputation, he stood up suddenly, which scared Liang Qian. “No, I can’t be called a lord. Actually, a pretty boy is pretty good.” These words choked Haiyang so much that he was speechless. Lu Yiming is actually quite stingy. He will never wait until he has revenged himself. “That’s enough, let’s be merciful when we can.” Sister Qian on the side pulled Lu Yiming’s sleeve. After all, he is my friend, so we should talk it out. “Okay, whatever you say is what I will do, but we in Shanghai don’t like the playboy thing. Just call me by my name, show some respect, and you can call me Mr. Lu.” For Sister Qian’s sake, Lu Yiming did it reluctantly. “Okay, Mr. Lu, we just failed to recognize the real talent. Don’t hold it against us.” “Yes, we didn’t expect that Liang Qian would introduce us to a true Buddha. We were wrong. It’s our fault.” Seeing that Haiyang had stood up, Zhang Bing could not just stand there and immediately picked up his wine glass. Each of them held two taels of wine in their hands. “This cup is our apology to Mr. Lu.” Having said that, the two of them drank it all in one gulp. It’s true that the men in this city are quite generous. “Okay, sit down. Since you are Sister Qian’s friend, you are also my Lu Yiming’s friend.” Lu Yiming was now much more serious and no longer as nonchalant as he was just now. Finally everything is back to normal. Lu Yiming: Yeah, I was quite tired while acting just now. Liang Qian: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Come on, why do I feel like I’m enjoying it? “One million, right? Not too much, not too little. Don’t even think about big business, that’s not your business. Set a small goal for yourself first, and make 100 million within five years.” “puff…” Liang Qian just took a sip of water and almost spit it out. Show off! Set a small goal to earn 100 million in 5 years. This is the most pretentious thing Liang Qian has ever heard in her life. You, Lu Yiming, will die if you don’t brag. What kind of business is it that can earn 100 million in 5 years? Why not take Sister Qian along? “Don’t believe it?” Well, brothers Haiyang and Zhang Bing also looked at each other. I can’t even think about 10 million, but it’s 100 million right away? So all my business in Beijing was in vain? In Mr. Lu’s eyes, it was not a business at all, but just a way to earn some hard earned money. It turns out that the heights they are standing at are different. “No, believe it, we believe it, and please ask Mr. Lu to help us two brothers get rich together.” “Okay, we’re friends now, so let’s not be so formal. So, stay in Shanghai for the time being. Everyone save my number and wait for my call.” Take on too much. Lu Yiming is so confident. After seeing the two brothers off, Lu Yiming began to smile playfully again. “Sister Qian, are you satisfied with your performance today?” “Not bad, you deserve praise. How about I give you a kiss as a reward?” “No, this is taking advantage of me.” “Hey, you’re shameless, aren’t you? Sister Qian is such a casual person. It’s your luck that she likes you.” I don’t know if it’s a joke. Anyway, from Lu Yiming’s perspective, Liang Qian seemed quite serious. “Forget it, I can’t afford it. How about reimbursing you for the necklace?” “Get lost, are you embarrassed to give me something?” Lu Yiming: Not only did I lose the wife, but I also lost my soldiers. “Okay, I’ll take the loss, I’m happy with it, I won’t say any more, I have something else to do.” Lu Yiming waved his hand, without taking away a cloud. “Bad guy.” Lu Yiming didn’t know that after he left, Liang Qian stroked the necklace on her chest with a dazed look in her eyes. Chapter 69 Home? Nephrology ward of Huashan Hospital in Shanghai. “Your daughter is really filial. She comes to see you every day. Unlike our kid, we haven’t seen him since he was hospitalized.” Seeing Cheng Xiao busying around, even her fellow patients couldn’t help but feel envious. These things can obviously be left to the caregiver. I’ve already paid the money, but I still have to do it myself. “Oh, I’m just too sensible.” Wang Fang was lying on the hospital bed, her eyes never leaving the busy Cheng Xiao. Being sensible makes yourself feel distressed. Since she fell ill, all the burdens of the family have fallen on my daughter. I don’t know how she managed to hold on all these years with her frail body. Wang Fang needs to be hospitalized half of the year to maintain her life. Every hospitalization fee is a huge sum of money for the mother and daughter. Many times, Wang Fang wanted to give up. It has always been my daughter who encouraged me. However, every time Wang Fang saw her daughter’s fatigue inadvertently, she couldn’t calm down for a long time. “Come sit down for a while, there’s nothing to do.” “Wait, just wash the dishes later.” Cheng Xiao smiled at her mother. The caregiver has provided very good care, but no matter how good it is, it cannot compare to that of a biological daughter. After finally finishing everything, Cheng Xiao sat down beside her mother’s bed. “Are you tired from work?” “It’s fine, Mom, don’t worry.” “It’s not easy to get a good job. I heard that the competition is very fierce now, but you have to take care of your body too.” “Mom, don’t worry, I know what’s going on.” When it comes to work, Cheng Xiao naturally thinks of Lu Yiming. If it weren’t for Lu Yiming, his life would be filled with darkness. It was he who brought light to himself when he was most desperate. To be honest, this job didn’t come easy. “By the way, Mom, I got my salary yesterday.” Although it’s only half a month’s salary. But I got more than 2,000 yuan, which was really hot money. After deducting rent and living costs, Cheng Xiao could save 1,500, which she saved. Cheng Xiao must pay back the medical expenses that Lu Yiming paid for. No matter whether others say that I am stupid or stubborn, the debt I owe is too great, and I will never be able to raise my head in front of Lu Yiming. Maybe I don’t even have the qualifications to like her. The mother and daughter chatted for a long time, as if they had endless things to talk about. During this period, Wang Fang also asked about Lu Yiming indirectly. Wang Fang felt uneasy. After all, my daughter is so beautiful. Wang Fang was worried that her daughter might eventually succumb to her illness. Wang Fang is not overthinking it, it’s just that in this society, people laugh at the poor but not at prostitutes. Wang Fang felt bad because she had dragged her daughter into this state of trouble. Finally, after Cheng Xiao’s repeated assurances and comfort, Wang Fang finally put her concerns to rest. I can only say that this time I really met a kind person. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… So, I received another ‘good guy card’? “Go back, you have to go to work tomorrow.” “Mom, I want to spend more time with you.” “No, I’m fine. Don’t worry, I will cooperate with your treatment for your sake.” If we can see hope, who would not want to stay in this world? Seeing her mother’s firm attitude, Cheng Xiao had no choice but to stand up and say goodbye. But as soon as he walked out of the ward, he was startled by a dark shadow. “Shh…” “Why are you here?” Mr. Lu? Why is he in the hospital? “Wait for you.” “wait for me?” this… “Why don’t you go in?” I don’t know how long I waited outside the ward. Cheng Xiao didn’t notice at all. “I’m afraid your mother will think too much.” Cheng Xiao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Indeed, he had just calmed his mother down and ensured that everything was innocent between him and Lu Yiming. If Lu Yiming suddenly appeared, I wouldn’t be able to explain myself even if I opened ten mouths. “Mr. Lu, you…” “It’s not working hours now.” “Lu Yiming, do you have something to talk to me about?” “Come with me.” Lu Yiming did not answer the question, but turned and walked out of the hospital. “Mysterious.” Cheng Xiao subconsciously followed Lu Yiming’s footsteps and walked out of the hospital one after the other. This scene just shows that Cheng Xiao believes in Lu Yiming from the bottom of her heart. Yes, after experiencing so many accidents, Cheng Xiao completely trusts Lu Yiming. In Cheng Xiao’s heart, Lu Yiming is different from any other man. There was no desire to conquer or possess himself in his eyes. He is a man he can trust. Although we haven’t been together for a long time, this level of trust is unprecedented. A month ago, Cheng Xiao would never have imagined that one day she would be walking alone with a man at night. “Get in the car.” “Um?” “Take you somewhere.” He started the engine and drove the Ferrari out of the hospital. “Lu Yiming, it’s late.” “I know.” “I have to go to work tomorrow.” “Being late doesn’t count as absenteeism.” “That’s different. I don’t want special care.” “You must be very tired.” “What?” “We’ll be there soon.” About ten minutes later, the Ferrari stopped at the gate of a residential area. “This is?” “Your new home.” “Mr. Lu, don’t make such a joke.” “Call my name.” “Sorry, I need to go home.” “Here it is.” overbearing. There was no chance for Cheng Xiao to think. “get off.” “I…” I had no choice but to get off the bus. This is a brand new community, which should have been built not long ago. To be honest, this kind of community is definitely not something Cheng Xiao should consider. Even the attics in the alleys nowadays are rented by people who save money. Cheng Xiao also fantasized that through her own efforts, she might be able to earn back what she lost in the future. Set up a new home with my mother, but definitely not now. “Go up and take a look. It won’t cost you a piece of meat.” “I…” “Dawdling.” Lu Yiming pulled Cheng Xiao aside. A small high rise building. There are elevators, neat lobbies and corridors, which form a sharp contrast with the messy old fashioned alleys. “There are 12 floors in total, two elevators and four households, relatively independent.” Lu Yiming pressed the button for the 6th floor. “This is it.” At the door of 603, Lu Yiming took out the key. “Come in.” Looking at Cheng Xiao hesitating at the door, Lu Yiming felt helpless. “Why? Are you afraid of me?” “Of course not.” “Then why are you still standing there? It’s so late, don’t disturb the neighbors.” In the end, Cheng Xiao took this step. The layout of two bedrooms and one living room is not very large, only about 70 square meters in total. Of course, compared with my current attic of a few square meters, it is a world of difference. Finely decorated. All household appliances are available. Cheng Xiao stood there in a daze. Exactly like my dream home. The decoration in warm colors is very cozy. Chapter 70 Birthday “Two bedrooms and one living room, each with their own space, all appliances are ready, so you can move in anytime.” Forced Cheng Xiao to take a tour. Yes, this environment is completely incomparable to the loft that Cheng Xiao is renting now. Compared to the spacious and bright bathroom. It is very troublesome to take a shower in the alley room. However, for Cheng Xiao, she does not belong here. “I…I want to go back.” “Are you dissatisfied?” “Very satisfactory, but I cannot have it.” Cheng Xiao also has her own dignity and cannot accept Lu Yiming’s kindness again and again. In Cheng Xiao’s heart, this is like alms. If you get used to it, you will never be able to raise your head again. “Wait, did you misunderstand something?” “Mr. Lu, I know you are definitely not that kind of person. It’s just that this is my own problem.” Lu Yiming is not a bad person. On the contrary, at this time, Lu Yiming was one of the few people Cheng Xiao could trust. But because of this, Cheng Xiao could not accept Lu Yiming’s kindness. Perhaps, this house is nothing to Lu Yiming. However, for Cheng Xiao, it was too heavy and it made her feel suffocated. “Hey, I’ve never met someone like you who doesn’t even want company benefits.” “Um?!” Cheng Xiao looked up in surprise, company benefits? “Of course, the company has housing benefits for single employees. Although I did use some of my power, it was originally supposed to be a single apartment, but I thought you would still have to take care of your aunt in the future, so I applied to the company for this small two bedroom apartment.” I have to say, Lu Yiming doesn’t even blink when he lies. It is true that Lu Group is a leading private enterprise and its welfare benefits are indeed very good, but it is difficult to solve the housing problem of its employees. Even if Lu’s company was sold, it would be impossible to take care of so many employees. But in order to make Cheng Xiao feel at ease, Lu Yiming racked his brains. It still requires a little bit of tricks. The reason must be reasonable. “Cheng Xiao, I do want to help you, but this has to be within a reasonable range. You should know that Lu’s employees receive housing allowances, and most local employees do not need housing. Your situation is special, so the housing allowance will be cancelled.” “real?” “How could I lie to you? But don’t tell anyone. After all, I got promoted. If you tell anyone, it won’t be fair to other employees.” “Mr. Lu, a one bedroom apartment is fine. My mother and I are used to it.” “No, I applied for it with great difficulty. Besides, one bedroom apartments are more in demand and easier to pack up.” It was half true and half false, and Cheng Xiao couldn’t tell the difference for a moment. “Okay, I have to sign a company lease agreement tomorrow. Once I resign, I will have to move out of the apartment.” “this…” “Why are you still hesitating? A better living environment can also help Auntie’s recovery.” “Okay, I’ll sign.” Having said so much, in the end it was most useful to move out the aunt. As for the agreement. Is it difficult for Lu Yiming to get the official seal of the Lu Group? Lu Yiming can get an agreement that is so real that it can’t be faked in just a few minutes. “Thank you, Lu Yiming. If I hadn’t met you, I…” “No, who asked me to be righteous?” Seeing that Cheng Xiao accepted his kindness, Lu Yiming finally breathed a sigh of relief. “By the way, shall we celebrate?” “ah?” “Moving to a new home.” As he spoke, Lu Yiming took out the cake that had been prepared long ago from the kitchen. “This is?” “Today is your birthday, you didn’t forget it.” “Birthday?” Cheng Xiao: Yes, today is my birthday. I even forgot how many years it has been since I last celebrated my birthday. Ever since her father’s accident, Cheng Xiao has never celebrated her birthday again. I remember many years ago, every time it was my birthday, my father would cook a table full of delicious food and wait for me to come home from school with a cake in his hand. Just like Lu Yiming at this moment, he appeared in front of him holding a cake. The figures at this moment seemed to overlap. “Oooooh…” “Why are you crying again?” “I’m sorry, I…” “Don’t cry, I don’t have any ulterior motives. The key point is that it is written on the employment information. I just remembered it. Fortunately, I can still buy a cake.” In fact, Lu Yiming had already made the reservation in the afternoon. In order to order this cake, Lu Yiming was even late for dinner. Sister Qian also complained about it for a long time. “Lu Yiming, why are you so nice to me?” “What’s wrong?” “No, no, don’t do this, I’m afraid I can’t control myself!” Tears have blurred my eyes. Cheng Xiao: Don’t be so nice to yourself, otherwise you won’t be able to control yourself. “Actually, I like you quite a bit. Of course, it’s not that kind of love, but the kind of love that a brother has for his sister.” Cheng Xiao: Sister? Perhaps this is indeed the best explanation. However, for some reason, Cheng Xiao felt her heart suddenly become empty. “How about blowing out the candles first? I’m actually quite tired of holding them.” Lu Yiming: Yes, I also want to stay away, but seeing Cheng Xiao’s current condition, if I don’t reach out, am I still a man? How deeply did I hurt Cheng Xiao in my previous life. After so many years of marriage, I have always treated Cheng Xiao as a substitute. I have never celebrated Cheng Xiao’s birthday with her. The only birthday I had was when I confessed everything to Cheng Xiao. That night, Cheng Xiao broke down and cried. “Don’t think about it, okay? Today is your birthday, be happy.” “good.” “Let’s blow out the candles.” “good.” She was crying and laughing, but at this moment, Cheng Xiao was happy. After so many years, I finally have someone to celebrate my birthday with. Although the man in front of me is so out of reach for me. Brother, you seem to be doing fine too. “It’s a birthday present. Don’t get me wrong. I know you don’t accept expensive gifts. This bracelet was bought from an ordinary jewelry store. It’s not worth much.” It’s obviously the same brand as the necklace I gave to Sister Qian before. In order to make it more realistic, Lu Yiming specially bought a plastic box from a jewelry store. I have to say that Lu Yiming put a lot of effort into this night. “Thanks.” Sure enough, Cheng Xiao accepted it. The sparkling bracelet is worth far more than a three carat diamond necklace. It’s just that the person involved is completely unaware of it. The candles were blown out, the cake was eaten, and it was already late at night. The atmosphere unconsciously became somewhat ambiguous. Cheng Xiao glanced at Lu Yiming and lowered her head. That woman is not in love. But everything happened a little too suddenly. If we say that Cheng Xiao was willing to sacrifice herself before, it was entirely because she wanted her mother to live. At this moment, Cheng Xiao was already willing. Lu Yiming’s charm is really hard to resist. Cheng Xiao admitted that she had fallen. “Ahem, well, it’s too late. I’ll leave first.” I have already said that they are brother and sister, and I am definitely not a German orthopedic surgeon. It seems that we still need to give Cheng Xiao some time. “Are you leaving? No, that’s not what I mean, it’s just…” “By the way, I’ll help you move tomorrow.” “No, there’s really not much.” “Okay, I’ll give you a day off. Hurry up and get it done. You’ll be very busy for the next while.” “good.” Watching Lu Yiming’s leaving back, Cheng Xiao felt mixed emotions and subconsciously covered the bracelet she had just put on her right hand. Chapter 71 How did I fall for your spell? “You are quite free.” Li Li felt that she had been very busy during this period. We also had a conference call in the middle of the night to discuss the next steps. The most critical point is the lack of money. Yes, it’s lack of money! Even a good cook cannot cook without rice. All the funds were spent cleanly by Lu Yiming. It’s really unpleasant to have someone following you around and collecting debts every day. But Mr. Lu is fine, acting as if nothing happened. When Li Li arrived at the company early in the morning, she saw Mr. Lu working hard in front of the computer, which made her feel better. But when I got closer, I realized that Mr. Lu was actually… actually sweeping mines?! I just want to ask, why is your heart so big? “There’s another meeting later, but I’m telling you, I’m not going to attend it!” Li Li was obviously pissed. She was fuming with anger, but you were hiding away and playing computer games? “Stay calm.” “I can’t stay calm!” “It’s just a meeting. Whoever wants to go can go. Anyway, I have to say this: there is no money, but there is life at stake.” Scoundrel, a total scoundrel. “Yes, you, Mr. Lu, are not afraid. Even if the sky falls, you still have Mr. Lu to support you. But we are different. We are not related to each other, and Mr. Lu might use us as a scapegoat.” “No, be more confident and remove the word ‘I’m afraid’. Based on my understanding of my father, he will definitely take action against his subordinates, but it won’t involve you.” “Lu Yiming!” Li Li was going completely crazy. You already know the outcome, aren’t you afraid that morale will fall and the team will be hard to lead? ! “Don’t shout, your hearing is normal.” “Why did I get possessed by the evil spirit and board your pirate ship?” The special assistant was doing a good job, but he believed Lu Yiming’s lies. “There’s no point in being anxious. It’s just these two days.” “hehe…” Li Li really couldn’t believe Lu Yiming now. Just these two days? You know, during this period of time, President Gao seemed to have disappeared. I have tried every possible way, but I don’t know where I have hidden myself. “Don’t do anything today. Let our people go to the headquarters of China Mobile and China Unicom.” “Just a spin?” “Of course, you can have a cup of coffee, the company will reimburse you.” Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Can you give me a definite answer?” “Don’t worry, the Su family won’t be able to hold out for long. Unless they are ready to withdraw from telecommunications, they will definitely have to find a way to keep Gao Yan’s position.” Lu Yiming is not stupid, and the Su family is not stupid either. What they are competing for is mentality. Lu Yiming can keep his composure, but Gao Wei may not be able to. If this matter were to be exposed, Gao Yan would not be able to bear it. “Okay, I’ll trust you again. By the way, where’s Cheng Xiao? I’ll take her with me later.” “I’m afraid not. We’re moving.” “move place?” What time is it now? My butt is on fire! “I agree.” “Lu Yiming, you really are…” Li Li pointed at Lu Yiming and couldn’t say a word for a long time. “Okay, stop gritting your teeth. It’s not the first time you’ve said that, you’re just a playboy.” Lu Yiming spread his hands and let him do whatever he wants. However, Lu Yiming obviously underestimated Cheng Xiao. In her previous life, Cheng Xiao was like an exquisite porcelain doll, hidden at home by Lu Yiming. On weekdays, he only cooperates with Lu Yiming to attend some important events. But this kind of life is not what Cheng Xiao wants. What Cheng Xiao really wants to do is to show her own value. In her previous life, because of Lu Yiming, Cheng Xiao’s talents could not be displayed. And in this life, since Lu Yiming gave her a chance, how could Cheng Xiao fall into the comfortable environment created by Lu Yiming? If you treat me like a great man, I will repay you a hundredfold. Cheng Xiao, who is gentle on the outside but strong on the inside, vows to achieve results. So, as soon as Li Li left Lu Yiming’s office, she saw Cheng Xiao rushing over with a pile of materials. “Didn’t Mr. Lu give you a vacation?” “Mr. Li, here are the materials I prepared. This is from China Mobile, and this is from China Unicom. According to the current situation, the possibility of cooperation with China Unicom is greater.” When she saw Li Li, Cheng Xiao quickly handed over the materials she had compiled to her. “You haven’t answered my question yet.” “Mr. Li, my colleagues in the department are all busy, I…” “Very good, come to my office.” Li Li was quite satisfied with Cheng Xiao’s answer. To be honest, the possibility of cooperation with China Unicom and China Mobile was mentioned in the previous internal meetings. However, everyone knows that the best choice is still telecommunications. As for the other two operators, they were only mentioned briefly. But Li Li did not expect that Cheng Xiao actually listened to her. Not only did she listen to her, but she also carefully studied the data of the two companies and put together a plan. “Did you pull an all nighter again?” Looking at Cheng Xiao’s obvious dark circles, such beautiful eye bags are covered by them. “Mr. Li, I…” “Call me sister.” Li Li saw her own shadow in Cheng Xiao. Why is Li Li respected in Lu Group? Even the company’s vice president was polite to Li Li. This is not the halo of a special assistant, but Li Li’s ability and means. But all of this is the result of Li Li’s hard work after staying up all night for countless hours. At this moment, I saw my own shadow in Cheng Xiao. No, this little girl is better than me. Looking through the materials prepared by Cheng Xiao. These data are very necessary. “Sister Lili, the most important reason for choosing China Unicom is that its data is not as good as China Mobile’s. Among the three major operators, China Mobile’s data is currently the best, and the number of clients is also growing steadily. So I think that even if we can cooperate with China Mobile, we will not be able to get the treatment we deserve.” Data will not lie, but will reflect the truest side. In order to obtain these data, Li Li also specially visited the professors of the college. He was also Cheng Xiao’s elective course teacher. Naturally, he would teach his beloved disciples everything he knew. “Got it. Get ready and come with me to connect later.” After packing up the information, Li Li naturally had to prepare a way out for Lu Yiming. Although Lu Yiming was still full of confidence at this time. “Sister Lily, I have another question, I don’t know…” “Ask if you want to.” “Sister Lili, has the treatment in our company always been so good?” “What?” “Prepare bachelor apartments for employees?” “What are you thinking about? The company is currently in the development stage, and there is still a bachelor apartment.” Li Li’s subconscious answer surprised Cheng Xiao. So, Lu Yiming was lying to himself last night? Do you try every possible means to get around your own pitiful self esteem? “What’s wrong?” “It’s okay, I’m just asking.” “Okay, make yourself a cup of coffee later and leave in half an hour.” There is no time for sentimentality. The only thing to do now is to race against time. Chapter 72 Socialite? Not long after Li Li took Cheng Xiao away, Lu Yiming received a call from Gaoyuan Capital. However, the person who called was not Su Rongrong, but Gao Lan. Lu Yiming really has no memory of this person. I had no contact with him in the previous life. After all, Gaoyuan Capital is one of the top five investment banks in Shanghai. It was established a long time ago, but among all the senior executives, no one seems to have any memory of this person. But the other party kept talking about the handheld wireless telephone system, and for a moment, Lu Yiming was a little confused about the other party’s background. Finally, the two agreed to meet at the cafe in the Peace Hotel. The first thing you see is a hotel? After Lu Yiming hung up the phone, he also showed a thoughtful expression. I made an appointment to meet a client at a hotel, and the other party was a woman. This is a bit thought provoking. I don’t know if this is what Su Rongrong meant. It shouldn’t happen. Based on Lu Yiming’s understanding of Su Rongrong, she would never use such means. What Su Rongrong has always hated is bringing this kind of unspoken rule into work. “interesting.” I think it was his own initiative, but Lu Yiming wanted to see what was going on. At 2 pm, Lu Yiming set off with the car keys. Peace Hotel has always been the ceiling of hotels in Shanghai. Even though times have changed, it still stands firm. “Mr. Lu.” As soon as he entered the door, a young woman dressed in a women’s suit and with elegant manners appeared in front of Lu Yiming. It was obvious that the other party came prepared. “Mr. Lu, let me introduce myself. I’m Wang Lan, the VIP account manager of Gaoyuan Capital.” He handed over a black, gold embossed business card with some perfume sprinkled on it. Chanel No. 5. The taste is good. It can be seen that Wang Lan was dressed up carefully. The collar was open, revealing the beautiful collarbone. The loose collar allowed her to bend slightly when approaching Lu Yiming, so that she could take a closer look through the collar. This set of movements is so smooth and flowing that it really shows the unique charm of a young woman to the fullest. What a sophisticated approach. It can be seen that he often makes use of his advantages. Of course, Lu Yiming does not reject these. After all, the workplace is not so fair to women. If you can’t let go, you will be mediocre. If you can let go, you may be able to accomplish something. Although I don’t know what size the person in front of me is. But just the set of charm she just used clearly shows that she has studied men very thoroughly. Hazy and confused, wanting to refuse but also to welcome. One thing after another, an ordinary man would have been bewildered by her charm. “Hello, Mr. Wang.” “Mr. Lu, you must be joking. I am just an employee at best.” Wang Lan replied with a smile, but she was a little surprised. Not taking the bait. This method of mine is always effective when dealing with men. As for Mr. Lu in front of him, he is just a young man who has just started out. This age is when men have the most fantasies about women. With my own charm and today’s careful preparation, I originally thought that it would be easy to defeat Lu Yiming. But now, the other party has stabilized? It shouldn’t be. Previously at Gaoyuan Capital, Wang Lan witnessed the negotiation between Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong with her own eyes. He is obviously a little pervert. How could anyone resist my charm? This is really weird. Wang Lan saw everything that happened in the living room at that time. He was clearly teasing Su Rongrong from beginning to end. Su Rongrong was almost completely pissed off. Yes, I am indeed not as pretty as Su Rongrong. But I also have my own advantages. Especially this developed body of mine, how many men can’t stop lusting after it? Wang Lan really couldn’t believe that Lu Yiming would be indifferent to her. “Mr. Lu, I’m really sorry for asking you out during your busy schedule. I have admired you for a long time.” When handing over the business card, Wang Lan deliberately hooked Lu Yiming’s palm with her little finger. Such a blatant hint, doesn’t Lu Yiming understand? “Mr. Wang, you’re joking. I didn’t see Mr. Wang the last time I visited.” “I happened to be leading a project and missed the meeting with Mr. Lu. I regretted it after I found out. So today, I shamelessly asked Mr. Lu to come out.” As she spoke, Wang Lan even touched her hair. This allows the perfume to spread better. Chanel No. 5 is known as the ‘male killer’. “Now that I’m here, Mr. Wang, just be straightforward.” “Mr. Lu is too impatient. Please come this way. I have prepared a telephone. I hope Mr. Lu will do me the honor.” Wang Lan’s every move shows her feminine beauty. It takes suggestion to the extreme. The afternoon tea at the Peace Hotel features exquisite pastries from most countries around the world. Among them, the British set is the most popular. “Mr. Lu, the Earl Grey tea here is quite good. I don’t know what you want to drink, so just make the decision yourself.” Wang Lan always puts Lu Yiming first in everything. This point can effectively control a man’s arrogant emotions. I will also develop a favorable impression of Wang Lan in my heart. After pouring another cup of tea for Lu Yiming, Wang Lan sat down on the sofa opposite Lu Yiming. Cross your legs. She was obviously wearing a professional skirt, which was not suitable for such actions. But Wang Lan insisted on doing this. Black stockings wrapped around long, white legs. Coupled with this posture, it makes men want to find out what’s going on. Well, from the time they met until now, Wang Lan has been too attentive in every move he makes. If Lu Yiming was really a rookie, he probably wouldn’t even be able to speak clearly now. It’s a pity that Wang Lan obviously had the wrong idea this time. In his previous life, Lu Yiming stood at the top of the pyramid. What kind of scenes had he not seen? Not to mention Wang Lan, I have also dealt with more attractive socialites. Lu Yiming knew what the other party was thinking. If you really get it on your hands, it’s like getting flour on your wet hands, you can’t get it off even if you shake it off. What’s more, Wang Lan is not qualified enough to seduce Lu Yiming. “Mr. Wang, I’ve never been interested in things that have been used by others.” As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Lan’s smile, which had been maintained, instantly froze. this… What’s the meaning? Do you think I’m second hand? Wang Lan: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Bah, if I didn’t feel a sense of crisis in the company, would I have to use these methods on a greenhorn like you? “I don’t quite understand what Mr. Lu is talking about.” Hold on, you must hold on, you do this for the sake of the contract. Wang Lan is no fool, so he naturally knows the prospects of handheld wireless telephone systems. Such a big contract was the real reason why Wang Lan was tempted. Of course, Wang Lan would be even happier if she could hit Su Rongrong. Chapter 73 The Cruel Fact Yes, Wang Lan is indeed not stupid, otherwise she would not have seen the huge returns of the handheld wireless telephone system. However, Wang Lan obviously used the wrong method. In other words, Wang Lan chose the wrong opponent. At this age, becoming a project manager of Gaoyuan Capital is enough to fully illustrate Wang Lan’s means and ambitions. It’s a pity that a woman’s jealousy made Wang Lan very hostile to Su Rongrong who appeared out of nowhere. An even more fatal mistake was that Wang Lan wanted to compete with Su Rongrong. Who is Su Rongrong? The eldest daughter of the Su family. What is the concept? The financial backer behind Gaoyuan Capital is the Su family. It is a chess piece placed by the Su family in the Magic City. If we act rashly without finding out Su Rongrong’s background, the outcome will be very clear. Not to mention that it was impossible for Wang Lan to get the contract for the handheld wireless telephone system from Lu Yiming. Even if he got it, it would not be the capital for Wang Lan’s promotion. Instead, it will accelerate Wang Lan’s resignation. But Wang Lan also has her own reasons for fighting. It’s very simple. The director of Gaoyuan Capital’s investment department resigned, and Wang Lan was determined to get the vacant position. Before Su Rongrong parachuted in, Wang Lan had no rivals in Gaoyuan Capital. Whether it is the resources at hand or one’s own achievements. It can be said that Wang Lan’s succession to the position of director is what everyone expected. Wang Lan herself knew very well that as long as the top management reached a consensus, the position would be hers. However, Su Rongrong’s sudden appearance made Wang Lan feel unprecedented pressure. The candidate should have been decided last week, but it was delayed again and again. Rumors were rife in the company. Everyone is saying that this position of director was tailor made for Su Rongrong. At first, Wang Lan didn’t believe it. So what if there is someone behind this? Ability comes first. However, after sounding out some high level officials, Wang Lan’s confidence was shaken. The senior executives who originally supported him became ambiguous at this time. No longer firmly supporting yourself. Even after they came to power, they were all vested interests, but they still did not dare to express their opinions easily. And all of these were brought by Su Rongrong. Why? Wang Lan was very unconvinced. Obviously, I am the best candidate. Could it be that hard work is ultimately no match for connections? So, Wang Lan set his sights on the handheld wireless telephone system. Wang Lan knew very well that this was the only project after Su Rongrong parachuted in. If he could pry this project away from Su Rongrong, it would not only give Su Rongrong a warning, but also allow all the senior executives to see the truth clearly. Gaoyuan Capital cannot do without itself. What others can’t handle, I, Wang Lan, can handle. Even if it costs a certain price, Wang Lan is ready. What supports Wang Lan is her ambition. “Mr. Lu, you are joking. I came here with sincerity.” Therefore, even Lu Yiming’s ridicule at this time could not change Wang Lan’s determination. “Oh? Then I’ll give you a chance.” Lu Yiming didn’t expect that under such circumstances, Wang Lan could still try hard to maintain her smile. Although it is already very stiff. Interesting, the woman in front of me is indeed interesting. Lu Yiming saw ambition in Wang Lan’s eyes. Ambitious. “Mr. Lu, 40 million. I can add an additional investment of 10 million, 45% of the shares. This is a real win win situation for us.” Very good, Wang Lan’s conditions are much more practical than Su Rongrong’s. It’s a pity that this still cannot meet Lu Yiming’s standards. Both Su Rongrong and Wang Lan are optimistic about the handheld wireless telephone system. It’s a pity that they are not bold enough and their market positioning is still not accurate enough. The handheld wireless telephone system is a product that has changed the domestic communication landscape. Rather than a competitor of this era. I’m afraid no one could have thought of this except Lu Yiming. “not enough.” “Mr. Lu, you still have the final say on the handheld wireless phone system, and you have also obtained more funds. In such a short period of time, you have received such a generous return. I think both your father and the top management of the Lu Group will be quite satisfied with this result, right?” Such an achievement is already very rare. Wang Lan really doesn’t understand what Lu Yiming is still insisting on? “I understand what you said, but unfortunately, you and I have one thing in common.” “What?” “Ambition, Mr. Wang, I see ambition in you. Similarly, I also have ambition, and my ambition is far greater than yours.” “hiss…” Lu Yiming’s words made Wang Lan gasp. Sense of aggression. At this moment, Wang Lan felt the invasion from Lu Yiming. It’s not male aggression against female. It’s an invasion of everything. “30 million, 30 percent.” “Impossible, Mr. Lu, this is impossible. Not only me, but even the board of directors will not agree to it.” Wang Lan knew very well what the board’s bottom line was. Even Su Rongrong cannot change this. She was confident that she could invite Lu Yiming out because she could provide an additional 10 million in funds, which was Wang Lan’s own network of contacts. But now it seems that I was wrong. Lu Yiming doesn’t need too much capital to enter the market at all. It’s the proportion of shares. But this is not something Wang Lan can decide. “It seems you can’t meet my requirements.” Lu Yiming shrugged. Wang Lan does have ambitions, but unfortunately, his ambitions cannot match his current strength. “Mr. Lu, please reconsider it.” “Wang Lan, 10 million is not attractive to me. Also, you forgot the most important point.” “What?” Wang Lan felt that he had already planned everything. Only then did he confidently ask Lu Yiming out. But now it seems that I was too optimistic. However, Wang Lan couldn’t figure out where he was lacking. “In fact, even if you agree to my request, I can’t cooperate with you.” “What do you mean? Mr. Lu, are you kidding me? Or have you already decided on Su Rongrong?” “You guessed it right.” “I don’t understand, Mr. Lu, what’s so good about Su Rongrong? Is it because she’s a beauty? Or is she your dream girl?” At this moment, Wang Lan’s defense was obviously broken. All the calmness was left behind. Wang Lan was so excited that he couldn’t figure out where he lost. “Ha, business is business, I can still tell the difference.” “Then why?” “Su Rongrong has resources that you don’t have. You don’t have the ability to deal with the three major operators, but Su Rongrong can. Although we can’t cooperate, I can tell you a piece of advice.” “you…” “Sometimes, background determines everything, and no matter how hard you try, you can’t get past it. Although it’s cruel, it’s the truth.” Chapter 74 This bastard started teasing again After Lu Yiming left, Wang Lan sat alone on the sofa. Lu Yiming’s words were such a huge blow to Wang Lan. Yes, I tried hard, but I still couldn’t compare to my background. Although this is cruel, it is the truth. But Wang Lan just wouldn’t accept it. Think about your past. Wasn’t it just about trying hard to climb up? Wasn’t that wrong? There is nothing wrong with me. It is not me who is wrong. Since Lu Yiming’s side of the argument was not convincing, then I would take the contract to the Lu Group. I didn’t believe that the Lu Group would be a solid block. Wang Lan believed that the conditions she offered were the most tempting at the moment. Wang Lan’s magic went from confusion to determination. Yes, Wang Lan admitted that she did have ambitions. But my ambition is based on my ability. As for Lu Yiming at this time, he had already started the Ferrari. Instead of returning to the company, he went directly to Gaoyuan Capital. “Boss Su, Boss Lu from Lu Group wants to see you.” Su Rongrong was still looking through the information when she heard Lu Yiming’s name. Su Rongrong: Where is the wrench? Where is the wrench from last time? “Boss Su?” this… What happened to Mr. Su? He was fine at ordinary times, but when he heard Mr. Lu’s name, he seemed like a different person. That gnashing teeth expression. Is there a story between these two that needs to be told? “Okay, let him in.” Although she wanted to tear Lu Yiming into pieces, Su Rongrong still had some rationality left, which allowed her to make the right decision. Su Rongrong received a call from her father in the morning. Although it was not stated explicitly on the phone, Su Rongrong still understood what her father meant. My uncle in law can’t hold on any longer. Although the Lu Group has been left alone, this is not a solution after all. Once other senior executives of Telecom know about this, I am afraid that even with the support of the Su family, my uncle in law’s position will be unstable. What’s more, Lu Yiming’s threat is not without reason. The other two operators are also eyeing the market. Once this opportunity is lost, it will be impossible for telecommunications to develop rapidly. “call…” Take a deep breath and adjust your mindset. Su Rongrong kept telling herself, it’s okay, it’s okay, just think of this as a bite from the dog last time, calm down, calm down. “Boss Su, we meet again.” At this moment, the office door was pushed open, and Lu Yiming, with a smile on his face, appeared in front of Su Rongrong. This is a beating inducing smile. How can you be calm? Su Rongrong gritted her teeth. If there were no outsiders present, she might have just started fighting! “sit.” He said it casually with a blank expression. “Boss Su, I’ll go get the coffee.” The last time when guests came, Su Rongrong specifically instructed that in the future, she must use high quality hand brewed coffee to entertain her guests. “No need.” “ah?!” “What I mean is that Mr. Lu doesn’t need coffee. Forget it, just pour a glass of water.” If the assistant hadn’t been nosy, Su Rongrong wouldn’t even want to give Lu Yiming a glass of water. Of course, if it is tap water, Su Rongrong has no objection. It would be best if we could poison this bastard to death. You can also stop seeing and not be bothered. “Mr. Su’s hospitality needs to be improved.” “Mr. Lu, you’re joking. I can still tell the difference between friends and enemies.” Su Rongrong forced a smile. Although Su Rongrong was as beautiful as a fairy, such a smile was really… “Isn’t Mr. Su curious about why I came here?” “Could it be that Mr. Lu has figured it out? This is the best way, we can just sign it and save ourselves the trouble.” “Boss Su is joking. I’m not in a hurry.” “Your Lu Group is not a monolithic entity.” “Indeed, it is understandable that you have some small thoughts, but the Lu Group is not listed, so I don’t need to remind President Su who has the final say.” “What do you mean? To amuse me?” Su Rongrong discovered that no matter how good her self control was, it would be broken in a minute in front of Lu Yiming. “Of course not, I’m not that boring.” Lu Yiming shrugged, took the boiled water brought by Su Rongrong’s assistant, thought about it, and put it on the table. Although he was indeed a little thirsty, who knew whether Su Rongrong would hint to the assistant to add some extra ingredients. After the assistant delivered the tea, he immediately left. The atmosphere in this office is really weird. It’s uncomfortable to stay a second longer. “Tell me what’s going on. I’m busy.” “Mr. Su is naturally busy. After all, he also needs to convince the board of directors to support your resolution.” “you…” Su Rongrong: This bastard, he guessed it again. Yes, after Su Rongrong received the call in the morning, she did some intense ideological work and finally decided to compromise. Su Rongrong is indeed optimistic about the handheld wireless telephone system. Moreover, Lu Yiming was right, the handheld wireless telephone system could indeed work miracles. But it is useless to think this way. I must make everyone on the board of directors have the same mentality as me. How to convince the board of directors became a difficult problem. In the entire Gaoyuan Capital, only the president knows Su Rongrong’s identity. Other senior executives only knew that Su Rongrong was parachuted in and had a strong background. Therefore, when facing Su Rongrong, he maintained a “safe” distance. Everyone is watching and understanding, and no one can make a decision at will before finding out the details. This put Su Rongrong in a passive position. As to why this happened. It can also be said that Su Yunchang did it on purpose. This is to make my precious daughter give up. Unfortunately, Su Yunchang still underestimated Su Rongrong’s determination, and also underestimated Su Rongrong’s ability. “Why, I guessed it right?” “Lu Yiming, don’t be complacent. You are indeed one step faster this time, but you still have a long way to go.” “Okay, stop making big promises. After all, you don’t have much time left.” “What do you mean?” Su Rongrong heard that Lu Yiming meant something else. “Didn’t you just say that the Lu Group is not a monolithic entity? I can return this sentence to you intact.” As he spoke, Lu Yiming took out his cell phone. This is? Wang Lan’s voice? Although the conversation was not very clear, Su Rongrong was able to immediately recognize the other party’s identity. “Has she come to see you?” Su Rongrong’s expression turned a little ugly. He really will do anything to achieve his goal. “Why don’t you ask if I agree?” “Is it interesting? If you agreed, you wouldn’t be here. Besides, you’re not a fool. Between an extra 10 million and smooth sailing, you’ll naturally choose me.” “Smart, of course I choose you.” But at this moment, Lu Yiming’s gaze was too intense, causing Su Rongrong to quickly avoid it. Su Rongrong: What do you mean? Playing word games with myself again. This bastard never misses any opportunity. Chapter 75: Did this bastard put a curse on himself? “Mr. Su, your decision.” To be honest, Lu Yiming was indeed as Su Rongrong had analyzed. Attacked from both sides. Why wait patiently again and again? It’s for Su Rongrong. This also led to Li Li’s misunderstanding. There are obviously better options. Love power but not beauty? “You should know that it is difficult for the board to agree to your request.” “Then you should also know that this is a big test for you.” “call…” Su Rongrong took a deep breath. “Give me 10 minutes.” “With great pleasure.” Seeing that Su Rongrong had finally made up her mind, Lu Yiming found a comfortable position and leaned back on the sofa. “etc.” “Anything else?” Su Rongrong picked up the data in front of her and was about to go out when she was stopped by Lu Yiming. “Pour me a cup of coffee.” “knew.” This bastard is really good at climbing. After instructing her assistant, Su Rongrong walked towards the president’s office. Along the way, countless pairs of eyes looked at Su Rongrong. It seems that Lu Yiming was right. This is indeed a big test for me. “Mr. Zhang.” “Here I come.” Seeing Su Rongrong walk into his office, Mr. Zhang seemed to smile. It seemed as if he had been waiting for Su Rongrong for a long time. “It seems that Mr. Zhang knows why I’m here.” “I made a bet with your father.” “Who’s winning?” “Now it seems that I won.” Mr. Zhang was in a good mood. It was a rare opportunity for him to “win” against the head of the Su family. This was definitely a rare experience. Of course, the head of the Su family was just too concerned and confused. Too many possibilities are imagined. Sometimes, the answer is often very simple and does not require so many twists and turns. “I hope Mr. Zhang will take a look at this data.” “No, 30 million for 30%, that’s a good deal.” “Mr. Zhang knows?” It turns out that I know everything. Just as Lu Yiming said, this is a big test for me. “Know.” “when?” “I guessed it when you first led the team to Xiaori.” Sure enough, these big guys have really good vision… “Mr. Zhang, there is another problem. Ms. Wang…” “He’s just being too clever. Wang Lan has had too much luck in the past few years. It’s good for him to have a setback this time.” When mentioning Wang Lan, Mr. Zhang’s face became a little gloomy. Mr. Zhang naturally understood that Wang Lan wanted to prove herself. But what you should never, ever, do is steal the company’s employees. It’s true that you, Wang Lan, are capable and have the ability to convince Lu Yiming, and President Zhang will be happy to see it happen. But what about the extra 10 million? For Gaoyuan Capital, the distribution of fixed profits means giving away its own vested interests, which Mr. Zhang cannot accept. “Understood.” Su Rongrong nodded and handed the document in her hand to Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang scanned it and signed his name directly. “Xiao Su, you are very much like your father. No, you are even better now than he was then.” “Thanks.” In response to Mr. Zhang’s praise, Su Rongrong just smiled slightly. The starting point is different. The future is still long. The steps back to the office seemed much lighter. I can finally put my mind at ease. Watched Su Rongrong leave the office. Mr. Zhang had a gloomy face and dialed Wang Lan’s cell phone. At this time, Wang Lan had just met the vice president of Lu Group. The other party was very interested in this cooperation. It seemed that Wang Lan was about to convince the other party. As a result, Wang Lan’s expression changed slightly when she received a call from Mr. Zhang. I said “sorry” to the other party and hurried back to the company. During this period, Wang Lan looked quite ugly. I gave everything, but what’s the result? Damn it! Why? At this time, in Su Rongrong’s office. I originally wanted to tell this good news to the guy as soon as possible. result. Fell asleep? This bastard actually fell asleep on his own sofa? Su Rongrong’s assistant standing by also looked a little helpless. “Boss Su, I was just about to come in to serve coffee, but Boss Lu has already…” “Go out. By the way, draft a contract based on this and find a colleague from the legal department to help.” “good.” Su Rongrong didn’t know why, she was obviously very unhappy with Lu Yiming. But at this moment, he subconsciously slowed down his movements. It can be seen that Lu Yiming is really tired. Yes, Li Li just saw Lu Yiming playing the Minesweeper game in the morning. However, Li Li ignored the fact that usually Li Li was the first one to arrive at the company, so why was Lu Yiming earlier than Li Li? In fact, Lu Yiming stayed up all night. Although Lu Yiming wanted to cooperate with Su Rongrong, all kinds of accidents could happen when doing business. Lu Yiming also had to leave a way out for himself. So, Lu Yiming prepared for the whole night. No one can joke about work. Lu Yiming can’t do it either. Lu Yiming asked for coffee not because he wanted to climb up the ladder, but because he really needed the stimulation of coffee. However, before the coffee arrived, Lu Yiming fell into a deep sleep. If you want to blame someone, blame it on the fact that the sofa in Su Rongrong’s office is too comfortable. “Tsk, I really owe you.” It takes at least an hour to draft a contract. I don’t know if I’m too soft hearted. Su Rongrong did not wake Lu Yiming up, but took off her shawl. An elegant woman always has a shawl ready for herself. Su Rongrong is naturally no exception. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Wait, what are you doing? Su Rongrong didn’t wake up until she covered Lu Yiming with the shawl. I must have a fever and must be very sick, so why should I worry about whether this bastard will catch a cold? This bastard has been teasing me all the time. What I should do is not to turn the air conditioner in the office to the coldest setting and freeze this bastard to death. Take the shawl? However, once I wake up, I will be unable to defend myself. Never mind, we are partners after all. Even if you want to kill this bastard, you have to wait until the contract is signed. Su Rongrong kept imagining this. He just sat in his boss chair, staring blankly at Lu Yiming’s sleeping face. You know what, this dog is really pretty to look at when he’s asleep. There are really few men who are more… Wait, I must be sick. Yes, my mind is starting to get all kinds of crazy. Su Rongrong shook her head to get rid of these ridiculous thoughts, and forced her attention to the documents in front of her. But I always look up inadvertently. Does this count as being bewitched? While he was sleeping, Lu Yiming probably could never have imagined that his sleeping face could be so charming. If I had known this earlier, should I have set up a bed in Su Rongrong’s office? One hour later. “Boss Su, the contract is ready!” Perhaps because he was too excited, the assistant forgot about the ‘guest’ in Mr. Su’s office. Chapter 76 Su Rongrong’s Little Pride “Be gentle.” “I’m sorry, Mr. Su, I…” “Hmm…” woke up. Lu Yiming opened his eyes, a little confused. I actually fell asleep in Su Rongrong’s office, but I slept very soundly. It was the first time that Lu Yiming slept so soundly after his rebirth. I wanted to get up, but found something covering me. This is? Women’s shawl?! “Okay, now that Mr. Lu is awake, you can take your shawl back. Also, be careful next time and don’t let strangers sleep in my office.” Su Rongrong seemed a little flustered. We must not let Lu Yiming misunderstand anything. Assistant: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Shawl? What shawl? “Huh?! Oh, okay, I’ll pay attention.” Looking at Mr. Su’s eyes, I immediately understood everything. He quickly stepped forward and took the shawl into his arms. “Boss Su, this is the contract. If everything is ok, I’ll leave first.” “Um.” Su Rongrong managed to remain calm and answered. This bastard shouldn’t be able to see through it. Lu Yiming: ( ^_^ ) Ha, the smell of this shawl is exactly the same as the scent of Su Rongrong. Do you really think that you have been a playboy for all these years in vain? Lu Yiming had already mastered the skill of recognizing a beauty by her scent. However, we still have to give Su Rongrong some face so as not to embarrass her. Lu Yiming did not point it out, but smiled and thanked Su Rongrong’s assistant. But Su Rongrong saw this scene. Su Rongrong: You bastard, you’re fickle again. I shouldn’t feel sorry for him! “Mr. Lu is not polite, and he is not afraid of me doing something dirty.” “You won’t.” “hehe…” “At least we will be partners soon.” “Mr. Lu is very confident.” What I hate most is this guy’s confidence that he has everything under control. “The contract is already prepared, why are you pretending?” “Then please have a look, Mr. Lu.” Su Rongrong gritted her teeth. Why was this bastard so annoying once he woke up? Lu Yiming took the contract and looked at it. For this type of standard contract, the legal department generally avoids legal risks. As long as the numbers are correct, it doesn’t matter. “Mr. Su is thoughtful.” The key parts have not been changed, which shows that Su Rongrong is still very sincere. Lu Yiming sat directly opposite Su Rongrong’s desk. “What do you want to do?” Su Rongrong immediately became defensive. Ever since the last incident, Su Rongrong’s vigilance towards Lu Yiming has reached the highest level. “Sign it, of course.” Lu Yiming directly took the pen from Su Rongrong’s hand and signed his name on the contract. “You won’t look again?” “Gaoyuan Capital is a large company after all, so it will not do something like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.” “Where’s the official seal?” “I carry it with me.” “Humph, you’ve turned the dignified Lu Group into a shell company.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… This guy obviously has me in his grasp, and he even brought the official seal with him? But Su Rongrong couldn’t let herself be at a disadvantage. She had to ridicule what needed to be ridiculed and couldn’t let this bastard be too deliberate. “We are partners after all, so be gentle with your words.” After signing and stamping in one go, Su Rongrong quickly sent the contract for review. Ten minutes later, three contracts were signed. “Boss Su, I wish us a pleasant cooperation.” “Forget the handshake. I’m afraid of infectious diseases.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Naked disdain. However, after Lu Yiming left, the assistant hurriedly brought in Su Rongrong’s shawl. “Boss Su, how about I help you wash it?” “Put it down. The air conditioning in the office is a bit cold.” Assistant: Is the air conditioning in the office cold? I don’t think so. This tsundere, really is… At this time, Wang Lan also rushed back to the company. Headed straight to the president’s office. Wang Lan came back with a lot of resentment. He had clearly already convinced the vice president of Lu Group. With the cooperation of both inside and outside, it is very likely that I will win this project. But he was stopped at the critical moment. Just because the other party was Su Rongrong, he had to protect her like this? This is simply unreasonable. “Mr. Wang, Mr. Zhang has a conference call.” The president’s assistant wanted to help stop them, but Wang Lan gave him a vicious look, which made the assistant retreat. Assistant: Wow, wow, wow… Mr. Wang is so scary. He has such a strong aura and is definitely here to call for punishment. Wang Lan broke into Mr. Zhang’s office like this. “Mr. Zhang, you’d better give me an explanation.” “What explanation do you want? The contract has been signed.” “Mr. Zhang, I can obviously secure a higher share for the company in the contract for the handheld wireless phone system.” At this time, Wang Lan was still full of confidence. In Wang Lan’s view, everything she does is for the company. And this time, it was the company that betrayed itself. “We’ll talk when you calm down.” Mr. Zhang’s expression became increasingly gloomy. It seems that Su Rongrong’s sudden appearance has brought tremendous pressure to Wang Lan, causing Wang Lan to lose his composure at this time. Where am I? It’s the president’s office. The incident actually ended up in the president’s office, and the door wasn’t even closed. Where were the employees outside who were listening intently? “Boss Zhang, I am calm now. I clearly have the opportunity to take 40% of the shares. I don’t understand why I chose Su Rongrong!” “Are you teaching me how to do things?” “I need fairness!” “Wang Lan, are you a child? After all these years of hard work, when have you ever seen fairness? Also, this is a company project. Do you think it’s amazing to attract 10 million investment with your connections?!” “10 million for 10% of the shares, this deal is a sure win.” “In order to suppress Xiao Su, have you ever considered the company? If everyone behaves like you, will the company’s rules still be respected?” “Mr. Zhang, these are all what you taught me before!” “It’s different now!” “Boss Zhang, it’s because of Su Rongrong, right?” “you…” “Okay, I quit!” Wang Lan threw the contract she had prepared directly on Mr. Zhang’s desk. Wang Lan really couldn’t accept this grievance! this… Everyone outside was shocked. Are you not going to do this anymore? A job with a million dollar annual salary, can you just give it up? When Su Rongrong got the news and rushed over, Wang Lan had already left Mr. Zhang’s office. Mr. Zhang was left alone to sulk. “I’ll go and persuade him.” The person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. This matter was caused by herself, and only Su Rongrong can explain the twists and turns. “No need, she just can’t figure it out for the moment. I know Wang Lan, she’ll be fine once she figures it out.” Mr. Zhang waved his hand. Although I was indeed pissed off by Wang Lan today. But no matter what, Wang Lan is a powerful general of Gaoyuan Capital. Mr. Zhang still understands the principle that a scale cannot be separated from its weight. Chapter 77: Poaching Mr. Zhang understands Wang Lan, and everything will be fine once Wang Lan figures it out herself. However, Mr. Zhang did not expect that Wang Lan, who left angrily at this time, met him in the parking lot. “Who is Mr. Wang going to pick on with such anger?” Wang Lan: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… It’s him! “Boss Lu is really good at this!” Wang Lan sneered. Even a fool would know that. I just met Lu Yiming, and Lu Yiming signed a contract with Su Rongrong. Lu Yiming simply sold his own. Without any hesitation. Now you dare to appear in front of me with such a flattering face? Using himself to oppress Su Rongrong, this young Mr. Lu really understands human nature. “Mr. Wang is a completely different person now.” “Boss Lu, are you here to laugh at me?” Wang Lan wanted to scratch the handsome face in front of her. Why is this person so irritating? “On the contrary, I just want to buy Mr. Wang a drink.” “What’s the meaning?” What on earth is this little bastard up to? I have clearly accepted defeat and become Lu Yiming’s stepping stone. Are you here to whip the corpse now? “Mr. Lu, I don’t think there is anything good to talk about between us.” “Boss Wang, are you scared?” “hehe!” Wang Lan rolled her eyes and opened the car door. Afraid? There is no such word as “afraid” in my dictionary! Sure enough, the method of provoking someone is the most effective. Lu Yiming started the Ferrari and drove directly out of Gaoyuan Capital. Half an hour later. Peace Hotel. Looking at this familiar place. Wang Lan was so angry that she gnashed her teeth. You are so good, Lu Yiming, you actually brought yourself to the hotel. Sure enough, all men have dirty minds. In the afternoon, he also rejected my offer of embrace. It hasn’t been long since then and his true nature has been exposed! “Lu Yiming, what do you mean?” If Lu Yiming dared to tease Wang Lan, he would be beaten into a pig’s head. Do you really think of yourself as a little girl who has not experienced much of the world? “Eat, the Western restaurant at Peace Hotel is good. Mr. Wang, don’t judge others by your own standards.” “It would be better this way.” Wang Lan opened the door and got out of the car, but her expression was a little… The staff welcoming guests at the door were all stunned. Looking at the expression on this young lady’s face, could it be that she is being held hostage? Should I help call the police? The Western restaurant at the Peace Hotel is the favorite social spot for celebrities in Shanghai. Lu Yiming asked for a quiet private room, which was considered very grand. “Charlotte steak, medium rare.” “I didn’t realize that Mr. Wang really knows how to enjoy himself.” This Charlotte steak alone costs more than four figures. “Mr. Lu, are you feeling bad? We signed such a big contract today, it’s reasonable for Mr. Lu to spend some money, of course, if Mr. Lu really can’t bear to do so, I’ll come and ask for it.” At this moment, Wang Lan is a rose with thorns. It was completely different from when we met in the afternoon. Women are indeed born actors. Wang Lan’s true nature is probably being exposed now. “Boss Wang is joking. What would you like to drink?” “I want to drink 1982 Lafite, Mr. Lu, are you willing to give it to me?” “Of course I’d like to, but it’s basically impossible to drink 1982 Lafite in China.” Just kidding, those who want to show off by saying “82 Lafite” act like they are so awesome. In fact, this is all there is of the 1982 Lafite. Consumed every day. As for domestic products, they are basically bottled. Lu Yiming is not the kind of person who drinks fake wine for the sake of so called status and taste. “Charlotte’s steak should be paired with Latour’s S1 to complement each other.” Latour S1, the low key king, is as famous as Lafite. Only those who understand Latour S1 are truly tasteful people. Very good, this X was installed by Lu Yiming. Good wine and delicious food. This temporarily calmed Wang Lan’s inner anger. “Boss Lu, what do you want to do?” Pretending to be a gentleman in front of yourself? Wang Lan said that she was not disappointed. In the afternoon, Mr. Lu even ridiculed her in a roundabout way and said that she was a second hand product. What happened to second hand goods? I’m already 30, is it abnormal to have a man? Wang Lan is such a woman who enjoys life. Why should women be subordinate to men? In this era, independent women can live well. Have a passionate love affair, and when you don’t love anymore, just wave goodbye. This Lu Yiming is still so conservative in his thinking. You can’t pee in the same pot. “Invite you to join Lu’s.” “puff…” Wang Lan was a little embarrassed at the moment. Lu Yiming’s words broke Wang Lan’s plan. What the hell? Join Lu Group? Is this digging yourself? Wang Lan had imagined countless answers, but this one was definitely not one of them. “Although Latour S1 is not as expensive as Lafite, it is also a rare good wine. It is better not to waste it.” Lu Yiming’s words were indeed shocking, but Wang Lan’s expression was really… “If I’m not mistaken, Mr. Wang must have had a falling out with Gaoyuan Capital.” “You’re plotting against me?” “What are you talking about, Mr. Wang? This is called expressing your true feelings.” Very good, I didn’t expect Lu Yiming to speak so nicely. “How do you know that I will definitely fall out with Mr. Zhang?” “Because you are ambitious. I’ve said that you and I are both ambitious. People like you will never be willing to be inferior to others.” “So, you also think that I can’t beat Su Rongrong?” “If I were you, I wouldn’t ask such a ridiculous question.” Lu Yiming never thought that a woman’s jealousy could be so terrible. Is this a matter of clinging to this point? “Mr. Lu, can I understand your invitation as you paving the way for Su Rongrong and clearing the obstacles in front of her?” If Wang Lan continues to stay in Gaoyuan Capital, she will definitely become an obstacle to Su Rongrong. Besides, the relationship between Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong is complicated. Wang Lan is not blind. The last time they were in the company, there was clearly a story between the two of them that had to be told. At this time, Wang Lan would naturally think that Lu Yiming did this for Su Rongrong. This Su Rongrong is really lucky. So many men are around her. Why? Just because Su Rongrong is young and beautiful? ! Wang Lan just wouldn’t accept it. “Boss Wang, do you have no confidence in yourself? Or have you already decided in your heart that you are not as good as Su Rongrong.” “fart!” Lu Yiming’s sharp tongue could actually make Wang Lan speak eloquently, which was something he could be proud of. “I’m giving you a platform to express yourself.” “I can just as well stay at Gaoyuan Capital.” “If you stay, you will definitely lose.” “Why can’t I beat Su Rongrong?” “Just because she is Su Rongrong, the entire Gaoyuan Investment belongs to her Su family.” “Hiss… This is impossible.” As an elite in the investment world, it is impossible for Wang Lan not to have heard of the Su family. However, he had never received any news about when Gaoyuan Capital became part of the Su family. Wang Lan’s reaction was very real. It seems that the Su family has concealed the secret very well. Even senior executives like Wang Lan don’t know the Su family’s layout. Chapter 78: Surrounded by Wolves “Although this wine is good, it is not meant to be drunk this way.” Watching Wang Lan drink up the red wine in the glass in front of him. Lu Yiming frowned instead. Could it be that I stimulated myself too much? “So that’s how it is.” Wang Lan gave a helpless smile. Yes, I had originally guessed about Su Rongrong’s background, and even associated Su Rongrong with the Lu Group. However, Wang Lan never imagined that Su Rongrong was actually the eldest daughter of the Su family in Su Province. This time the loss was really not unfair. What Lu Yiming said was right. If he stayed in Gaoyuan Capital, he would be dead. Regardless of whether he could defeat Su Rongrong or not, his future was already determined. “Besides, you may not be able to defeat Su Rongrong.” Wang Lan: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Not only you, but also me.” Su Rongrong is indeed a little immature now. However, in his previous life, Lu Yiming had experienced Su Rongrong’s experience and methods. Once Su Rongrong grows up, not to mention Wang Lan who has no foundation, even Lu Yiming may not be able to handle it. “I didn’t expect Mr. Lu to think so highly of her.” “Just being realistic. How about it? Is Mr. Wang interested in my proposal?” “Boss Lu, you are the one who has the final say in the investment department of Lu’s Group. It won’t be good for you if I join in.” Just as Lu Yiming just said, Wang Lan is very ambitious. Therefore, if Wang Lan really joins Lu’s investment department, it may not be a good thing for Lu Yiming. Once there was a disagreement, Wang Lan didn’t want to repeat the same mistake. Perhaps, this is the sorrow of working people. What if they become working emperors? Wang Lan knew very well that Lu Yiming would not give up power. This can be concluded from the fact that I had contact with the vice president of Lu Group in the afternoon. In Lu’s company, Lu Yiming doesn’t give face to anyone. Plus he has the support of his father. It’s a one man show. “Who said it was the Investment Department?” “What’s the meaning?” “Head of Logistics.” “Mr. Lu, are you kidding me?” As an investment elite in Shanghai, you are in charge of the logistics department? That’s ridiculous. This position, let alone compared to Gaoyuan Capital, even if I switch to any other investment bank, I will get a more decent position that can better showcase my talents. You must be crazy to go to Lu Group for retirement. In Wang Lan’s eyes, the Logistics Department is a place for retirement. “Why? You don’t like it.” “Mr. Lu, thank you for your invitation, but I’m afraid this is not suitable for me.” Wang Lan is also a decisive person. If something is not suitable, then it is not suitable. Although after learning about Su Rongrong’s identity, Wang Lan would definitely not stay in Gaoyuan Capital. But this does not mean that Wang Lan has lost his fighting spirit. I am only in my early 30s and there is a lot of room for development in the future! “It seems that you have great confidence in yourself.” “nature.” “Being the head of logistics is quite a challenge.” There was no change on Lu Yiming’s face, as if he had expected Wang Lan to have such a reaction. “Mr. Lu, why bother? Business is not about kindness and righteousness. Maybe there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future.” “I’m just giving you the best chance.” Wang Lan: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Why didn’t I realize that Lu Yiming had such a persistent side? “Mr. Lu, the position you mentioned is not suitable for me and it also buries my abilities.” It’s not that Wang Lan overestimates herself. Being able to achieve the current achievements at this age, there are not many people who can do it in the investment banks of Shanghai. What’s more, Wang Lan won the gold medal in the investment industry last year. This is not only a recognition of Wang Lan’s ability. It is also your stepping stone. In the investment banking circle, this honor is still very important. Wang Lan believed that if she made up her mind to leave Gaoyuan Capital, once the news was released, some investment banks would want to contact her. With his qualifications and abilities, he can naturally negotiate terms with top investment banks. No matter which one it is, it should be better than the head of the logistics department. “Don’t waste wine.” Wang Lan had made her point so clearly, but unexpectedly, Lu Yiming still poured her a glass slowly. “Mr. Lu, I’m afraid that it would be a waste of words for you to talk about a flower today.” “How do you know if you don’t try?” “Boss Lu is really persistent.” Things will change over time. I didn’t expect that I am now in control of the initiative. I remember that in the afternoon, Mr. Lu mocked herself as second hand goods. I didn’t expect that I would be quite vindictive. Wang Lan was no longer in a hurry at this time. Instead, she raised her glass to Lu Yiming with a smile. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… It’s difficult, but the better. What I lack around me is capable people. There are not many people Lu Yiming can truly trust in the company now. The only ones who are truly capable are Li Li and Cheng Xiao. But Li Li was still a little wary of him. As for Cheng Xiao, although Lu Yiming could guarantee that Cheng Xiao would be loyal to him. But Cheng Xiao still needs to grow. Staying by my side as an assistant is the best choice. Therefore, Lu Yiming continued to be an assistant who could calm the situation. During this period of time, Lu Yiming has been thinking about this issue. However, he did not expect that at this moment, Wang Lan would take the initiative to find him. After the confrontation in the afternoon, Lu Yiming knew that Wang Lan was the person he needed. Not only does Wang Lan have outstanding abilities, but most importantly, he is ambitious. As long as there is ambition, Lu Yiming can push him forward. As for whether Wang Lan will eventually lose control. Lu Yiming said that he didn’t care about this at all. I can satisfy all of Wang Lan’s needs. The reborn Lu Yiming spent his entire life learning how to control his subordinates. Moreover, Wang Lan also contacted the senior management of Lu Group in private, and he must have an understanding of his current situation. If you don’t fight for such talents, you will definitely regret it. “I think Mr. Wang has a certain understanding of my current situation.” Lu Yiming simply raised his glass, a real man can bend and stretch. “What does Mr. Lu mean?” “There are wolves all around.” “Mr. Lu, you are joking. You are the future owner of the Lu Group.” “That will have to wait until the day you ascend to the throne.” “Mr. Lu is not afraid that your father will be sad when hearing such words.” “On the contrary, I need to show enough strength, otherwise, I will die with regrets.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Hmm, something doesn’t seem right. My father is now in his prime, isn’t it a bit unfilial of me to say this? Well, after experiencing his previous life, Lu Yiming has a strong sense of crisis. Even though the Lu Group is still standing strong now, no one knows what kind of enemies the Lu Group will face in the future. Therefore, the Lu Group must and can only have one voice, and that is him, Lu Yiming! Chapter 79 Men must protect themselves when they are outside “Mr. Wang, you don’t really think that you can stay in investment banking forever, do you?” Investment banks eat your body and health. In other words, Wang Lan can now thrive in investment banking with her beauty and means. But everyone will grow old one day. When the day comes when she is old and no longer attractive, what should Wang Lan do? At that time, will you have to watch the up and coming people showing off in front of you? I’m afraid this is something Wang Lan cannot accept. “Mr. Lu, you really are…” Wang Lan really wanted to pour the red wine in the glass at Lu Yiming. This little bastard, can’t he say something nice? Yes, what you said, Lu Yiming, is indeed correct. This is also the actual situation of investment banks. But Wang Lan doesn’t rely on her beauty! I was possessed by a demon today and was eager to achieve my goal, so I frequently hinted to you, Lu Yiming, in the afternoon! Now that I think about it, I am the one who regrets the most! “Okay, let’s not talk about this. What lies before you now is an opportunity. Compared to Gaoyuan Capital, Lu’s Group has more room. Once the transformation is successful, Mr. Wang’s stage will be broader, right?” “Why should I trust you?” “Because I need you…” “you…” “I need your assistance.” “Mr. Lu, could you please stop panting when speaking?” Wang Lan gave Lu Yiming a charming look. However, Lu Yiming’s words were like planting a seed in Wang Lan’s heart. A broader stage. Yes, the Lu Group does have the capital. If it is really as Lu Yiming described, this future really makes Wang Lan excited. However, it is not easy to achieve this goal. Wang Lan understood Lu Yiming’s meaning very well. Surrounded by wolves. What Lu Yiming has to face are the older generation who once accompanied his father in building the empire. A close aide to the Lu Group. This is just like the change of dynasties. In order to keep the existing power in their hands, none of these old guys will give up easily. “What if I lose?” “I haven’t thought about it.” “Boss Lu is really confident.” “If I really lose, you will accompany me to start all over again.” “Mr. Lu, should we say that you are confident or arrogant?” “My personal charm. I believe that once we work together, you will discover more of my strengths.” Lu Yiming is so confident. Although at present, his situation in Lu Group is indeed not optimistic. But if he can’t even pass such a small test, he is not worthy of taking over Lu’s. “Okay, I’ll accompany you for a year. After a year, if I can’t achieve the effect I expect, I’ll leave at any time.” “It’s a deal.” Lu Yiming raised his glass again. He was not wrong about Wang Lan. This woman was crazy at heart, and he was just stimulating this ‘madness’ in advance. In the end, most of the bottle of Latour S1 went into Wang Lan’s stomach. “Mr. Lu can’t drink?” “I just need to keep a clear mind at all times.” “Isn’t that an excuse?” For a veteran like Wang Lan who has been through many battles. A bottle of red wine is nothing more than a splash of water. Of course, Wang Lan also has a past that she cannot bear to look back on. I remember when I first joined Gaoyuan Capital, it was just a small and transparent company in the investment community. In order to secure a contract, Wang Lan stayed up late drinking with her client. At that time, Wang Lan had already shown his crazy side. In order to get the contract, he drank himself unconscious. When Wang Lan woke up again, she found herself sleeping in the bed of the hotel. The other party’s boss is next to him. At that time, Wang Lan’s mind was blank. But she didn’t cry or make a fuss. Instead, he quietly put on his wrinkled clothes. Wang Lan kept reminding herself. I made the most basic mistake. I was so foolish to think that society was so simple. This is a bloody lesson. After not coming home all night, Wang Lan’s boyfriend at the time seemed to have noticed something. The two eventually broke up because of this incident. When Wang Lan returned to the company, everything seemed normal. Because of this contract. Wang Lan made a name for herself in the company and gained the attention of President Zhang. More and more orders were handed to me. For Wang Lan, drinking heavily is a way to improve her drinking capacity. As for getting the other person drunk, you can better protect yourself. However, all his efforts were ultimately defeated by the so called background. If Lu Yiming hadn’t pointed out everything, he might have continued to fight foolishly. In the end, he left in dismay amid the mocking gazes of others. For this, Wang Lan was very grateful to Lu Yiming. At least he made himself see the truth. However, overcoming the psychological barrier is not as easy as it sounds. Today, Wang Lan suddenly wanted to get drunk. It’s been a long time since I’ve felt drunk. Indulge again? It’s a way to give myself an explanation for my hard work over the years. “Mr. Lu, this wine doesn’t taste strong.” “As you wish.” “Then I’ll be welcome.” There is no need for an excuse to drink. Of course, it couldn’t be Latu’s headmaster S1. With Wang Lan’s alcohol tolerance, she was determined to drink until Lu Yiming went bankrupt. One hour… Two hours… At this time, the waiters in the western restaurant were dumbfounded. How many times have you gotten wine? Looking at the various wine bottles lined up at my feet. Could this woman be the legendary wine fairy? “It’s really strange, how come the more I drink, the more sober I become?” Wang Lan seemed to be mocking himself. It was clearly one cup after another. But I just can’t get drunk. “It’s not the wine that makes you drunk, it’s you who makes you drunk.” “You’re right, it’s your problem. If it were someone else, I would have been drunk a long time ago!” Wang Lan’s coquettish expression. It must be the problem of the person in front of me. Hate! I clearly just wanted to get drunk. “No…I don’t want to drink anymore!” Wang Lan stood up unsteadily, and before he had taken two steps, his body tilted to the side. If Lu Yiming hadn’t supported him from behind in time, he would have been embarrassed. Sure enough, he was still drunk. Lu Yiming shook his head helplessly. Fortunately, he had foresight. Choosing to stay in a hotel is definitely a wise move. “Dude, tell me, did that woman just now do that on purpose?” “Who knows, maybe the rich woman fell in love with the pretty boy, it’s all a trick.” “Hey, the world is so big and full of wonders. I’ve learned a lot today.” Wait for Lu Yiming to help Wang Lan leave. Several waiters gathered together and gossiped in low voices. We are all discerning people. The man didn’t urge anyone to drink at all. The women were the ones who poured themselves cup after cup. Is this an excuse for having sex while drunk? Women nowadays are really scary. Men must protect themselves when they are out. Especially the guest just now, whose looks are not inferior to those of popular young actors, and now he has been targeted by a rich woman. It seems that there is no way to escape the clutches of the devil tonight. Chapter 80 New Opportunities and Challenges A suite at the Peace Hotel. Wang Lan covered his head which was aching profusely. This time I was completely awakened by the pain. Who says drinking good wine won’t give you a headache? Wang Lan really wanted to give a big slap to the person who made such a fallacy. Where are you? Hotel, suite! It is highly consistent with the scene in my memory that I cannot bear to recall. Damn it, why did I trust a man so easily again? ! Turning her stiff neck, if Lu Yiming really slept next to her, Wang Lan would kill this little bastard even if she had to risk her life! “No one?” The other side of the bed was empty. Wang Lan: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Wait, could it be that this little bastard ate everything, put on his pants and ran away? This kind of nature is even worse! When she lifted the quilt, her skirt from last night was gone. She was wearing hotel pajamas. “asshole!” “I just want to ask, are you scolding me?” A faint voice sounded in the darkness, startling Wang Lan. “ah?!” “Boss Wang, people scare people to death.” “Why are you here?” “Look what you said, I paid for this room.” Lu Yiming looked helpless. “What happened to my clothes?” “You vomited.” Lu Yiming stated a fact without any emotion. Wang Lan vomited so much last night that she was dizzy. Isn’t it said that you can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk? Why is it not working now? “You changed it for me?” “How fresh! The hotel has waiters. Don’t worry, they are women.” “You… Lu Yiming, do you dislike me?!” “Ha, you are quite self aware.” “Get lost!” As he spoke, Wang Lan picked up a pillow and threw it towards the source of the sound. “A gentleman uses his mouth, not his fists.” “If you have the guts, come over here and see if I can stop talking!” Gnashing teeth in hatred. There was naked disdain in Lu Yiming’s tone. I have a good figure, a pretty face, and I am charming. I am known as the queen of the investment world in Shanghai. You actually look down on me? Lu Yiming: As expected, women are unreasonable creatures. He was so nervous just now, but when he heard that nothing was wrong, he started to act up again. I just want to ask myself, should I go or not? The next moment, Lu Yiming opened the curtains and the sunlight poured in directly. Wang Lan closed her eyes subconsciously. The sun is glaring, so what time is it now? “I’ll give you ten minutes. I’ll wait for you in the living room. By the way, the contract has been drafted and can be signed at any time.” “What contract?” Wang Lan was a little confused. “Of course it’s the employment contract. We negotiated it last night.” “Really? Why don’t I remember?” It seemed like I just wanted to get drunk last night. “Haha, Wang Lan, you’d better remember it. Otherwise, I don’t mind helping you recall it.” Lu Yiming’s sinister smile really made Wang Lan feel a little creepy. My hair stood on end and I felt like I was on a pirate ship. Ten minutes later, Wang Lan, who had washed up and was wearing the hotel’s pajamas, appeared in the living room. I have to admit that Wang Lan’s well developed figure is definitely not comparable to Cheng Xiao and Su Rongrong. Even Lu Yiming couldn’t help swallowing after taking a look. “Why aren’t you wearing any clothes?” “Are you blind?” No clothes? Could the pajamas I was wearing be the “Emperor’s New Clothes”? “What I mean is, can you please not be so exposed, Wang Lan? You really don’t treat me as a man!” “Nonsense, I want to change too, where are the clothes?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, it was me who forgot. I sent my clothes last night to the dry cleaners, and they should not have arrived yet. “That’s because of you.” Obviously, after last night, the relationship between the two seemed to be much more “harmonious”. “Let’s take a look at the contract.” Lu Yiming didn’t waste any words. He went to the HR department early in the morning to get the contract. In theory, the logistics supervisor can be considered a middle level manager in the company. Generally, it needs to be discussed in a meeting. But Lu Yiming was such a dictatorial person that he didn’t even give the HR manager a chance and just made the decision abruptly. The HR manager would not want to offend the future prince just for the sake of a candidate. I had no choice but to cooperate and prepare the contract. “200,000 yuan a year?” Wang Lan looked at her salary with a look of disgust. “Look carefully, it’s 16 salaries, and you get 250,000.” “Lu Yiming, in your eyes, I am only worth 250,000 yuan?” Wang Lan was filled with anger. After all, he was one of the first working emperors in Shanghai with an annual salary of one million. You are only willing to give yourself a quarter of your original salary? You, Lu Yiming, are a big liar. “I’ll supply the rest for you personally.” Lu Yiming also knew that this was indeed a bit excessive. However, the logistics director of Lu Group does receive such a salary, and the company’s salary structure cannot be changed just because of Wang Lan. Once this is done, it will probably lead to even greater trouble. Those old guys in the company are eager to catch me. “That’s more like it, but we need to sign a document.” “You don’t trust me at all?” “hehe…” Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly. Lu Yiming had no choice but to write the agreement, and Wang Lan happily signed his name on the contract. “Mr. Lu, I hope you can give me more guidance in the future.” “I can’t give you any advice. I’ll give you two days to complete the entry procedures and report to your post. I have something for you to do.” Wang Lan: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… You got into the role so quickly? It seems that there is no time for myself to breathe. I have just accepted the change of identity. Can’t wait? “Please give me some time to adapt.” “You wish, this money is not spent in vain.” “The face of a capitalist.” “It’s okay once you get used to it.” Since his name has been signed on the contract, Lu Yiming is not afraid that Wang Lan will go back on her word. “I have to meet with Gao Wei today. Please come to my office the day after tomorrow.” After saying this, Lu Yiming was about to leave. “The top leader of the telecommunications group?” “You still don’t understand?” “I understand now. No wonder you want to cooperate with Su Rongrong. We are a family. There is no comparison.” Very good, Wang Lan has accepted the reality. In terms of connections, Wang Lan is far from being a match for Su Rongrong. This point has been very clear since Lu Yiming revealed Su Rongrong’s background. “You don’t have to worry about this matter. After all, your division of labor is different now.” What Lu Yiming needs to do is to help Wang Lan adapt to her new position quickly. After all, the pressure within the company is increasing. Lu Yiming also needs to prepare for a rainy day. Another point is, the last time Zhang Zun instigated me, I wonder if he was already involved in this. Lu Yiming still owes Su Rongrong an answer. This matter also needs to be resolved at the same time, otherwise, misunderstandings will always remain. “Lu Ba Pi.” Watching Lu Yiming leave, Wang Lan couldn’t help but complain. But, I felt quite emotional inside. I haven’t felt this excited in a long time. Challenges and opportunities. This is what Wang Lan likes most. Chapter 81 Future Plans Su Rongrong made the contact and Lu Yiming easily met Gao Yan at the Telecom Shanghai headquarters. “Boss Lu, I’ve been too busy lately. I originally wanted to meet you these two days, but I didn’t expect you to choose to work with Rongrong. We are really destined to meet.” Gao Yan had a smile on his face, and seemed very sincere. As for what Mr. Gao is busy with, I’m afraid only Gao Kang himself knows. “Mr. Gao, you’re joking. Good things take time.” Seeing through things but not speaking them out loud, and saving face for both parties, is also a basic rule in the business world. As an old hand, Lu Yiming naturally managed to keep his face calm and his heart rate unchanged. To be honest, when they met, Li Li was afraid that Lu Yiming was young and hot tempered, and if he started to argue, she would probably have to smooth things over herself. But now look at these two shameless business people praising each other, they are even more shameless than themselves. On the contrary, Su Rongrong is not so shameless. As someone who knew the inside story, Su Rongrong’s face always showed a hint of embarrassment. If my uncle in law hadn’t wanted to help me, he wouldn’t have been hiding these days. Fortunately, I finally got 30% of the shares. Finally, I can explain. After the three parties sat down in the conference room, Li Li handed the compiled introduction to each person. “Mr. Lu, Rongrong has been praising the future of handheld wireless phone systems. I have always been very curious about this. What kind of high tech technology is worth Mr. Lu’s efforts?” Gao Wei naturally knew something about handheld wireless telephone systems. However, the telecommunications group cannot make decisions on its own. It also requires the approval of other senior executives. As for how to convince those senior executives, it depends on Lu Yiming. Rather than saying that today is a negotiation, it would be better to say that today is a preliminary exam. “Mr. Gao may have misunderstood. Handheld wireless telephone systems are not positioned as high tech.” “Um?” “Compared to the 2G era, which is the mainstream research, the handheld wireless phone system is a step backward in history.” After these words were spoken, not only Gao Yan, but even Su Rongrong’s expression changed slightly. How can you tell the truth like this? Saying this will only make the telecom executives suspicious. You know, the current development of Telecom lags behind the other two operators. If the layout is wrong this time, there will be no future for telecommunications. “Mr. Lu, do you know what you are talking about?” Gao Yan frowned, a hint of displeasure showing on his face. It turns out that you are still too young. This is not what the telecom executives, including myself, want to hear. “Please be patient, Mr. Gao. I am only laying out the future before you. As for how to choose, you have plenty of time to think about it and ask questions after I have finished explaining it.” Facing Gao Yan, Lu Yiming was neither humble nor arrogant. Such an aura is not something a young boy in his 20s can control. Gao Yan was also very curious about this. You know, within the telecommunications company, those department managers who are in their forties or fifties are all terrified when they see me. Not to mention arguing in front of me, I didn’t even dare to raise my voice. To put it bluntly, in this discussion, as Party A, the future fate of the Lu Group is in their hands. But she didn’t expect Lu Yiming to be like this in front of her. “Okay, then I’d like to listen carefully to Mr. Lu’s analysis.” “The handheld wireless telephone system changes the last section of the fixed telephone line from cable connection to wireless connection for communication. It consists of the central office equipment RT, air traffic controller ATC, base station controller RP and mobile phone PS. In other words, it can realize all the functions of the fixed telephone network.” “That’s too general, Mr. Lu. What do these functions include?” “Call forwarding, three way calling, voicemail.” “That’s all?” “Of course it is different. The handheld wireless phone system also has some functions of mobile phones, including cross region roaming, wireless Internet access, positioning alarm and ISDN and other services.” “With all due respect, if that’s all it is, I find it hard to see how it can be competitive.” “Mr. Gao, the biggest feature of the handheld wireless phone system is that it has the low charges of fixed line phones and the multi functions of mobile phones. Of course, this is also the premise of our cooperation, that is, the telecommunications group needs to obtain network access qualifications. I believe this is not a difficult thing for telecommunications companies.” Lu Yiming said confidently. The low charges of fixed line telephones and the multi functions of mobile phones are the fundamental reasons why handheld wireless telephone systems have developed rapidly and become popular. No one can refute this. “Although the path taken by the handheld wireless phone system is somewhat different, it is currently the most suitable for the market given the newly formed mobile calling pattern in China.” Lu Yiming nodded to Li Li beside him. The latter quickly delivered a summary of the core technology of the handheld wireless telephone system to every participant. “You can refer to the information. The handheld wireless phone system uses micro cell and dynamic channel allocation technology. This technology has never appeared in China. The advantage is that it can greatly improve the frequency utilization rate and system capacity.” That is to say, the time division duplex mode TDD is adopted between the cell base station and the mobile phone of the handheld wireless telephone system. Its wireless channel is based on the time division multiple access TDMA structure, the voice coding adopts 32kbit/s AD PCM method, and the wireless interface adopts data V5 interface technology, thereby enhancing the system’s anti interference ability, improving the quality of voice communication, and enhancing the confidentiality of the system. The most important point is cheap! It’s really cheap! Once telecommunications companies launch handheld wireless telephone systems, they will completely change the existing mobile communications infrastructure. Bringing new changes. This price is definitely not something that China Mobile and China Unicom can afford. I guess what telecom will have to pay? It is just a matter of changing the existing cell base stations. This can be said to be insignificant compared to the investment and effort made by telecommunications. No wonder Lu Yiming is so confident. To be honest, even Gao Yan couldn’t help but be moved at this moment. Gao Yan even breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lu Yiming finally chose to wait. Even a fool could see what this handheld wireless phone system meant to telecommunications. If I really miss it because of myself, I’m afraid I’ve done my best. “Very good, Mr. Lu. The only problem now is how to get on the network.” “Boss Gao, this is what you should consider. If we take care of everything, won’t your company just be eating ready made food?” “Haha, Mr. Lu, your analogy is really…” Gao Yan was a little amused and helpless. It was only now that he revealed his resentment. The point is, after seeing the future of handheld wireless phone systems, Gao Yan had to endure. Just right, this young Mr. Lu has a bright future. Chapter 82 Layout “Mr. Lu, are you so confident in Telecom?” After leaving the telecommunications headquarters, Li Li couldn’t help but ask the questions in her mind. After all, from the very beginning, neither Telecom nor Gaowei left a good impression on Li Li. If Lu Yiming hadn’t called for an emergency stop this morning. Maybe Li Li has already appeared in the offices of the other two operators with Cheng Xiao. “I know what you want to say.” Lu Yiming shrugged his shoulders. It was nothing more than loving beauty rather than the country. In Li Li’s heart, she was probably obsessed with sex, so she was willing to wait for Su Rongrong to sign the contract. “I don’t think so.” “You have.” “Well, I do.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Really candid. “On the surface, the three major operators are the same, but relatively speaking, at this stage, the government’s support for telecommunications is the greatest.” “Mr. Lu, I need to remind you that these words need to be based on facts.” “It’s very simple. The handheld wireless phone system requires a wireless access system in the 1900MHz 1920MHz frequency band, and I’m afraid it will be difficult for the other two operators to get support.” “Why can telecommunications be used?” “High.” “Mr. Lu, what do you mean?” “It’s easier to get things done if you have someone in the court.” Don’t say everything clearly. Lu Yiming had to admit that the power of the Su family should not be underestimated. Just remember this. “We’re just trying to make a quick buck.” Lu Yiming stretched lazily and squeezed the cost of the handheld wireless telephone system to the lowest level. The generous profit margin is enough for the Lu Group to survive the period of rapid development. This is what Lu Yiming really hopes for. As for the trend we are leading, I’m sorry, no one can follow us in the next five years. Once five years have passed, Lu Yiming will directly open the technology and usage rights of the handheld wireless telephone system to the domestic market. And I am slowly withdrawing from this field. Everything was in Lu Yiming’s plan. The whole plan was laid out from the very beginning. One thing is linked to another, and it also paves the way for the future. “By the way, make some arrangements. There will be a ‘newcomer’ reporting in the next two days.” The person Lu Yiming was referring to was naturally Wang Lan. “What position?” “Head of the group’s logistics department.” “Mr. Lu?!” Li Li is not a fool. As the president’s special assistant, Li Li has seen many such scenes. Crazy, Mr. Lu hasn’t even established a firm foothold in the group yet, but he’s actually thinking about… this… Does Mr. Lu know? If Mr. Lu knew about this, how would he react? “Why, are you scared?” “You are playing with fire.” “Rather than saying that, it’s better to say that some people have fallen behind the times. They can’t even use the most basic computer languages and office software. They are just sitting there doing nothing.” “Boss Lu won’t let you do it.” Compared to Lu Yiming, Li Li knows Mr. Lu better. Those people were the old people who had followed President Lu to build his empire. Mr. Lu is a very nostalgic person. During the time that Li Li had been working, President Lu had many opportunities to discipline these elderly people. But what is the final result? At the most critical moment, Mr. Lu was still nostalgic and couldn’t bring himself to do it. Otherwise, it would not be possible for the older generation within the company to occupy so many senior positions within the company. It is obviously Mr. Lu’s connivance. Even if it was Lu Yiming, facing these “old foxes”, he probably wouldn’t stand a chance of winning. Li Li did not agree with Lu Yiming’s action against these “old people”. This would be a huge blow to Lu Yiming’s reputation. Once the fight starts, no matter if he wins or loses, it will be a lose lose situation for Lu Yiming. Suppressing veteran and meritorious employees is no joke, no matter which company it is. “Mr. Lu, the best way is to convince Mr. Lu.” Only Mr. Lu has the reputation to suppress all voices of dissatisfaction. Throughout history, hasn’t it been like this? “Do you think my father can be so cruel?” “this…” “The result is obvious. If it were possible, there would be no need for me to take action.” Lu Yiming naturally knew the pros and cons. Of course, if these old guys knew their limits, Lu Yiming wouldn’t mind keeping them. But the problem is that they have already started against themselves. This is what Lu Yiming can’t tolerate the most. Not only did he cause trouble in the company, but he also took the opportunity to instigate me. The more Lu Yiming thought about Su Rongrong’s matter, the more he found something wrong. In the previous life, I was just as they wished. In the end, the Lu Group was completely defeated. But what about the top executives? They sold out the interests of the company one by one, and took advantage of the time when the Lu Group was in a state of desperation to make a fortune for themselves. Eventually, my father died of exhaustion. Lu Yiming was also unable to stop them from dividing the group. Since they have done this to me, it won’t be just once. Instead of guarding against thieves every day, it is better to solve the problem once and for all. “Mr. Lu, you have to think it over carefully. It’s not time to fall out yet.” “It’s only a matter of time. Since my father can’t bear it, let me, his son, do it for him.” For Lu Yiming, taking advantage of a victory to pursue the enemy is what he is best at. And at this time at Gaoyuan Capital. A brand new Wang Lan appeared again at Gaoyuan Capital. Compared to yesterday’s embarrassment, Wang Lan showed a completely different attitude today. “Hiss… Mr. Wang’s ability to adjust himself is really great. Yesterday there was such a commotion, but today he seems to be fine.” “Otherwise, how could Mr. Wang be able to achieve his current position?” “I’m afraid Mr. Wang is also quite helpless. Originally, it should have been Mr. Wang…” “Shh, you don’t want to do this anymore? How dare you say that?” The top executives of Gaoyuan Capital have collectively lost their voices, which clearly shows that something is wrong. As a grassroots employee of the company, you must never express your opinions casually. If you get involved, you will be crushed to pieces. If you don’t have this basic common sense, you shouldn’t get involved in the investment circle. “I knew you would be able to adjust your mindset quickly. Don’t worry, there are still plenty of opportunities for you.” The moment Mr. Zhang saw Wang Lan, a victorious smile appeared on his face. Wang Lan is a smart person, and smart people will naturally make the right choice. Gaoyuan Capital and Wang Lan have a mutually beneficial relationship. Naturally, Wang Lan would not choose to leave at this critical time when Gaoyuan Capital is thriving. This is Mr. Zhang’s confidence. However, this time, Mr. Zhang obviously miscalculated. “I’m sorry, Mr. Zhang, I’m here today to submit my resignation.” “What’s the meaning?” “Don’t you understand? I’m done with this.” Wang Lan felt that she had never felt so refreshed. You, Mr. Zhang, can only make empty promises for yourself. Well then, now I’m officially notifying you that I quit! Chapter 83: The fallen leader of Sijiu City Guesthouse is a product that came into being in this era. Even in Shanghai, there are many guesthouses of all sizes. Today’s Luwan District, formerly the French Concession, has quiet roads lined with sycamore trees. Elegance is a heritage. In a guesthouse in Luwan District. “We’ve been waiting for a week. Tell me, is that guy playing a trick on us?” “Probably not. We have to give Liang Qian some face.” Having said that, Zhang Bing obviously has no confidence. Although they still had a few million yuan in their pockets, Zhang Bing and Haiyang did not dare to spend it lavishly. It seems like the Magic City has its own currency measurement. A million or so may not seem like a small sum, but if you really let go, you’ll find it hard to stop spending. Of course, I don’t want to stay in high end hotels. Although the quality of the guesthouse was a bit low, what attracted the two of them was the affordable price of 50 yuan per night. “If it doesn’t work, let’s go north. I have two comrades in the Northeast, and they are also doing very well.” “Okay, you know what they do. To put it bluntly, they could be caught at any time. If that happens, we’ll implicate our family and our lives will be ruined.” I can’t survive in this city anymore. If something happens again, how will I explain to my family? The two old men have lived a clean life. It is impossible that they will be betrayed by their two younger generations in the end. “I didn’t say how long I’d do it, Bingzi. That business makes money quickly. We can do a few jobs and then go ashore.” To be honest, Haiyang was really moved. The last time I went there, my two comrades even wore mink coats. He was so generous. A pager on a big gold chain and a big mobile phone in his hands, the only thing missing is a cigar in his mouth. Thinking back to when I was in the army, I followed behind him. I didn’t expect that things would change so quickly. Fortunately, these two comrades were nostalgic and offered to take me into the industry. The ocean is really moved. It’s just that at that time, the two of them had a good business in Beijing. There has not been a failed investment yet. Men all want to save face. Naturally, I don’t want to admit that I’m doing poorly. So Ocean politely refused. Seeing that there is really no way out, I just give up. “Haiyang, do you think it’s so easy to do business with the Russians? Apart from anything else, all those big guys back then went bankrupt because of the exchange rate and were in debt. Let’s just keep quiet.” “I’m not out of ideas.” Ocean sighed. Yes, the unexpected fall of the Russians led to the collapse of the exchange rate. Those rubles that I earned by selling on my own in those years have now become waste paper in my hands. These guys are really pitiful. “Also, do you think the Russians are good people? If we really go to their territory, will we not be bullied?” “What are you afraid of? Just do it. It’s not like we haven’t fought before.” The Russians are a fighting nation, but they are not afraid of the ocean either. “Okay, you still think you are a young man, we have to accept our age and wait and see.” Zhang Bing opened a pack of cigarettes and handed one to Haiyang. These two days, the two of them smoked to relieve their sorrow, and the ground was full of cigarette butts. And just at this moment, there was a knock on the door of the room. The two brothers looked at each other. I don’t have many friends in Shanghai, so who could it be at this point? “It’s probably those slutty girls again.” The ocean looked gloomy. Even if I am at the lowest point in my life, I will not seek help from those slutty women. “Why are you knocking? I warned you, we don’t want any service!” Zhang Bing was already very angry, and he started cursing at the top of his voice as soon as he opened the door. Just give it to me. The remaining half of the words were stuck in my throat. His face turned red from holding it in. “Ahem… I… this…” “Bingzi, who is that?” Haiyang subconsciously glanced towards the door and stood up immediately. However, his expression turned somewhat awkward. “Why are you here?” “What? Are you two really in trouble?” The person who came was none other than Liang Qian. But for Zhang Bing and Haiyang, their most miserable side was now displayed to their former goddess without reservation. This made both of them very uncomfortable. “How did you find us?” Although they kept in touch by phone, Zhang Bing and Haiyang never told Liang Qian where they were staying in Shanghai. I’m too embarrassed to say it out loud. “Is there anyone I can’t find in the Magic City?” Liang Qian frowned slightly. I tried to contact both of them early in the morning, but their phones were always turned off. Liang Qian couldn’t wait any longer so she asked her friend at the police station to check and found the place easily. only… Liang Qian really didn’t expect that her two childhood friends were now living in such a tight financial situation. “You still have a million or so, so what? When did you become Grandet?” “Well, when you’re out, you should save money and spend money.” “Yeah, besides, the environment here is pretty good. We are two grown men, so we don’t care about these things.” Zhang Bing and Haiyang each spoke a sentence, trying to find an excuse for themselves. Liang Qian looked around the room. Is this what you call a good environment? This room is in the basement. Not only is it very humid, but the ventilation is also poor. The entire guesthouse is filled with an indescribable smell. The spider web in the corner is quite eye catching. Liang Qian knows her childhood friend well. He has always wanted to save face since he was young. To put it bluntly, he has been trying to put on a brave face. Now that I am willing to stay in this basement, I am afraid I really have no other choice. It’s also my own fault for leaving the ocean alone from the beginning. Ignoring the real situation of the two people. Well, it’s really amazing that a playboy from the old city has ended up like this… “Liang Qian, um, how about we go out for a walk? The coffee shop on the corner is pretty good. Bingzi and I went there for a drink yesterday. The taste was really authentic.” “Okay, pack your things and follow me.” “Where are we going? It’s great here.” “Okay, you want to save face in front of me, right? Then don’t look for me again.” “No, you’re angry now.” Haiyang quickly stopped Liang Qian who was about to leave. “Are you still childhood friends?” Liang Qian crossed her arms over her chest and looked at the two of them with a sneer on her face. “certainly.” “You are my sister Qian.” After getting a satisfactory answer, Liang Qian nodded. “Then listen to me and pack your things quickly. I can’t stay in this place any longer.” Sometimes, this kind of disdain does not hurt people, but instead makes Haiyang and Zhang Bing feel relieved. Liang Qian is still the same Liang Qian as before. He did not change because of his downfall. We still get along the same way as before, and it feels really good. As for disliking the environment here. Nonsense, Zhang Bing and Haiyang also felt disgusted in their hearts. When they were prosperous, they had never suffered such “hardship”. Not to mention Liang Qian, who was spoiled like a “princess” by her family since she was a child. Haiyang and Zhang Bing quickly packed their luggage. When I checked out, today’s room rate was blacklisted. In front of Liang Qian, the two brothers had to be generous and said, it’s just 50 yuan, we don’t want it! Chapter 84 Look at my forehead full of sweat “You guys are so shameless. You park a nice Audi 100 here. Don’t you think it’s embarrassing?” At the entrance of the guesthouse, the brothers’ Audi 100 stood out. “Hey, in business, what you need is face.” Everything has been completely exposed in front of Liang Qian. At this point, Haiyang and Zhang Bing had completely stopped pretending. Yes, the dandy people of Beijing have fallen into poverty. This Audi 100 was obtained from the army through connections. It’s been well maintained, but has been driven for over 300,000 km. It was originally going to be sent to the logistics department for thorough maintenance. The two brothers spent some money and got what they needed. Of course, what they valued most was the military license plate. This car has not passed the inspection and is still registered in the Logistics Department of the General Staff. “Okay, follow me.” Liang Qian drives a 1992 Toyota Crown Century. The two cars drove one after the other and arrived directly near Jing’an Temple. Sheraton Shanghai. It is in stark contrast to the previous guesthouse. “This… is a bit too extravagant.” Staying here for one night would cost at least several hundred yuan. Haiyang and Zhang Bing understood the principle that you get what you pay for. When their business was doing well, they could often be seen in these high end places. But now we are in trouble, a real man can bend and stretch. “Okay, I don’t want your money.” “Liang Qian, we…” Zhang Bing opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn’t say them. I guess the person who is feeling the most mixed emotions at this moment is Zhang Bing. Liang Qian has always been the goddess in my heart. But at this moment, I am in front of the goddess… “What? All that was said just now was in vain?” “Sister Qian, Bingzi didn’t mean that, but we do need to save some money now.” “I have shares at home, so I’ll give you an internal price of 100 per night. Is that okay?” “Okay, that’s great.” 100 a night, a better guesthouse would cost more than that. Liang Qian booked a room for the two of them and put the room cards in their hands. “What? Do you want me to take you up there myself?” “No, we can do it ourselves.” “Hurry up and make it official. I’ll be waiting for you in the lobby.” “Anything else?” “How fresh? Of course I have something to talk to you about. I have some news about my brother, and we have plans to meet this afternoon. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be looking for you all over the world.” “Oh, it’s my fault. I drank too much last night and forgot to charge my phone.” The two brothers were feeling depressed last night, so they drank peanuts and Erguotou and got drunk without realizing it. “Hurry up.” “OK.” There was news from Lu Yiming, which was naturally the best news for the two of them. Although it was just an ordinary standard room, it was a significant improvement for Haiyang and Zhang Bing. “Brother, this favor is hard to repay.” Haiyang looked at the luxurious decoration and sighed. Although he didn’t say it, Haiyang knew it clearly in his heart. Although Liang Qian’s family holds shares in the hotel, to say that the internal price is 100 yuan per room is pure nonsense. The more upscale the hotel, the more rules it has. The hotel’s management system cannot be changed casually. It is estimated that in order to make the two of them feel at ease staying there, Liang Qian secretly posted a lot of them. As for Zhang Bing, he didn’t say a word after entering the room. Haiyang patted his brother on the shoulder, knowing that he was feeling bad, but at this moment, he could not do anything to persuade him. “Okay, hurry up and clean up. Don’t keep Sister Qian waiting anxiously.” Haiyang, who had just come out of the army, took a combat shower and shaved his beard clean. Half an hour later. The two people, looking brand new, appeared in front of Liang Qian again. “Yes, that’s pretty good.” Liang Qian nodded with satisfaction. At least it doesn’t look so decadent. Originally, the two brothers wanted to drive their own Audi 100. As a result, Liang Qian called him into her car. It’s good to save some money on gas, after all, the engine of this Audi 100 is not very good and consumes a lot of fuel. “It’s a military license plate after all.” “Come on, this is not a big deal in business in Shanghai. Your military license plate doesn’t really have any benefits other than free parking.” It’s strange to say, but the business community in Shanghai doesn’t like to have too much connection with the military. It can only be said that the market conditions in each place are different. Liang Qian drove directly to Nanjing Road. It’s very close to the pedestrian street, just separated by a wall. This place is bustling with people, most of whom are tourists. I don’t know why Liang Qian brought these two people here. “Where are the people? I’m here.” Liang Qian took out her cell phone and called Lu Yiming without hesitation. “immediately.” This is how mobile phones work in this era. If the other party speaks louder, people around them can hear them clearly. “Hurry up, the sun is so hot.” Liang Qian urged. Ten minutes later, Lu Yiming, sweating profusely, appeared in front of Liang Qian. “Stinky brother, you did this on purpose.” Liang Qian was hiding in a shady corner. When she saw Lu Yiming, she immediately complained in dissatisfaction. “Take a look.” Unexpectedly, Lu Yiming put his face directly in front of Liang Qian. “what?” Liang Qian leaned back subconsciously. This stinky little brother, why is he launching a surprise attack? To be honest, Liang Qian was very happy about Lu Yiming’s sudden closeness, but there were too many people coming and going around them, so she always had to avoid suspicion. Besides, I didn’t ask Lu Yiming to “act” today. I have already made it clear to Zhang Bing. The two of them had a pure revolutionary friendship. Unfortunately, the amplitude of the backward lean was a bit too great, and he lost his balance and fell backwards. Fortunately, Lu Yiming reacted in time and grabbed Liang Qian who was falling backwards, thus avoiding tragedy. “No, what are you doing?!” This action made Liang Qian suddenly feel a little shy. I was actually teased by Lu Yiming? You naughty brother, you are embarrassing yourself on purpose. “What nonsense! I just wanted you to look at my forehead.” Lu Yiming looked helpless. “See? I’m sweating all over my forehead. I parked the car but ran straight here. That’s it. You still have the nerve to blame me?” Liang Qian: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Besides, our appointment was for 2 o’clock, and it’s 1:50 now.” Lu Yiming showed his watch. Sure enough, there were still ten minutes until the agreed time. “snort.” Liang Qian deliberately snorted coldly and pushed Lu Yiming away. “Okay, everyone is here, let’s get down to business.” Liang Qian did this to give herself a way out. After all, the scene just now was really… When Zhang Bing saw this scene, he could only sigh deeply. Even a fool could see that Liang Qian definitely had some feelings for Mr. Lu. But Mr. Lu seems to have not noticed it yet. Do you really think Liang Qian is a caring older sister? The goddess is interested, but the king is ruthless. It would be a lie to say I’m not jealous. It’s a pity that I’m not destined to have that fate. Chapter 85 Huge Business Opportunities Lu Yiming directly asked Liang Qian to take the two brothers to Nanjing Road. As for what they were going to do, Lu Yiming did not reveal anything. Not only the two brothers were curious, Liang Qian was the same. “How do you guys like Nanjing Road?” “It’s very lively with people coming and going.” I really have no idea what Lu Yiming means, so I can only tell the truth. “It’s good to be lively, this is it.” “here?” He also looked at Zhang Bing and realized that there was nothing in this place except shops. Wait, hiring for a job? Could that be possible?! “Mr. Lu, you’re not asking us to do retail business, are you?” Haiyang and Zhang Bing are not stupid. On the contrary, they often do opportunistic things. But it is precisely because he is too “smart”, with his mind full of shortcuts and getting rich quickly, that he has ended up like this. “I’ve calculated that this store has a lot of traffic.” “This… Mr. Lu, the location of the store is good, but if you want to do business here, I’m afraid you don’t have any real goods to offer…” Open a store? This was something the two had never expected. Moreover, isn’t it a bit late to engage in retail at this time? “Of course it’s a one of a kind thing.” “Brother, can you please speak properly? You are hiding something.” Liang Qian was full of dissatisfaction. This stinky little brother was playing tricks on her. “No, I don’t have it. Look at this thing.” Lu Yiming mysteriously took out a small and exquisite… “cell phone?” The three people’s eyes were all attracted by the ‘mobile phone’ in front of them. “New models?” “I haven’t seen it.” In this era, rich people no longer need mobile phones. Several major mobile phone brands have launched more convenient mobile phones. Just like the Nokia 1011 used by Lu Yiming, the world’s first GSM mobile phone, its birth also means that the era of digital analog phones is about to become a thing of the past. However, even the Nokia 1011, viewed from the perspective of 20 years later, is still as heavy as a brick. This was in stark contrast to the lightweight “mobile phone” in Lu Yiming’s hand. Liang Qian subconsciously took the cell phone from Lu Yiming’s hand. You know what, it’s easy to use and the style is pretty nice too. “How about it?” “It’s pretty good. I want to try another one.” The more I watch it, the more I like it. For a fashionable woman like Liang Qian, carrying a cell phone as heavy as a brick in her bag would indeed cause a lot of inconvenience. But it won’t work without a mobile phone. “Mr. Lu, do you have the exclusive rights to it?” Haiyang’s mind was indeed quick and he immediately thought of a possibility. If there is a franchise, this is indeed a good deal. It would be even better if it is exclusive, you can make a lot of money. “But even if that’s the case, it will only last for a month or two at most.” Zhang Bing seems more pragmatic. I have suffered a lot in the past two years. Zhang Bing naturally thought more. Yes, if such a small and exquisite mobile phone is suddenly launched on the market, it will indeed be very attractive. However, competition in the mobile phone industry has already become fierce, and mobile phone manufacturers have used every means possible to seize the Chinese market. If a new mobile phone is suddenly launched, competitors will be able to imitate and surpass it within two months at most. Although you can earn one dollar in two months, what about after that? Is it a good deal to buy a shop just for a mobile phone? You have to know that this is Nanjing Road, just across the wall from the pedestrian street. The monthly rent for a 40 square meter store is 100,000 yuan. And the payment has to be made every three months, plus the cost of decoration. The one time investment is about 500,000, which is equivalent to half of their total assets. The key point is that mobile phones today are still a luxury for the vast majority of ordinary people. With a price tag of less than ten thousand yuan, how many ordinary people can afford it? Of course, some mobile phone manufacturers have realized this and have begun to launch more reasonably priced mobile phone products. However, due to technical limitations, it is still out of reach for most people. Although we don’t know how much the “mobile phone” in Lu Yiming’s hand costs, we can imagine that it won’t be cheap. It is still unknown how much you can actually sell, and more importantly, the profits you earn have to be returned to the manufacturer. Thinking of this, Zhang Bing was not optimistic about the future of this mobile phone. Until now, Haiyang and I are still using digital analog machines and are reluctant to change. I guess most people have this mentality. “Lu Yiming, this phone is indeed good, but for a product like this alone, I’m afraid…” Liang Qian also reacted. Moreover, the Lu Group is not in the mobile communications sector. Originally, Liang Qian wanted the two brothers to follow Lu Yiming to do some engineering work, which was also the brothers’ main profession. Hasn’t the Lu Group officially entered the real estate industry? The two people’s rich experience can also help Lu Yiming. Unexpectedly, Lu Yiming actually… “What if there are many styles and the prices are cheap?” “Cheap? How much cheaper?” “The factory price is 380.” “puff…” “impossible!” “Oh My God.” Upon hearing the price, Haiyang and Zhang Bing were dumbfounded. As for Liang Qian, she looked incredulous. 380? Are you sure you are talking about RMB? Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Okay, it was shocking. However, Lu Yiming calculated that this price is still the current price of importing a complete machine from Xiao Rizi. Once the production line starts production, there is still a lot of room for prices to fall. “No, Mr. Lu, are you sure this is not a toy?” At this moment, Zhang Bing looked at the “mobile phone” in Lu Yiming’s hand as if he was looking at countless treasures. “At the moment, it is indeed impossible to make a call.” Zhang Bing: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Ocean: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Liang Qian: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Flirting?! “I have signed a contract with Telecom and will be able to access the network soon. Of course, this thing is not a real mobile phone. It is more appropriate to call it a handheld wireless phone system.” “Mr. Lu, no matter what it’s called, as long as it can make phone calls, its value is immeasurable.” Not to mention that the appearance of the handheld wireless telephone system is more in line with women’s aesthetics. The most important point is that this thing is used to show off! In this day and age, how many fashionable men and women desire to have a mobile phone of their own? It’s just the high price that keeps these people away. But we really need to be able to control the price within the range of one thousand yuan. Any fool can see the potential of a handheld wireless phone system. “Each has its own advantages, but one thing is certain, this deal is a good deal.” “Then what are you waiting for, Mr. Lu, don’t worry, I’ll go talk to the landlord right now.” Zhang Bing and Haiyang looked excited. “Thank you.” Liang Qian looked very satisfied. I didn’t expect that my little brother would care so much about my affairs. This is also a way to give yourself face. Chapter 86 New Challenge “Da da da…” The sound of high heels hitting the ground seems quite regular. Everyone in the Lu Group’s investment department focused their attention on the ‘newcomer’. Charming, too charming. These stinky men’s eyes were wide open. Wang Lan twisted her waist, fully showing the sexy side of women. Compared to Cheng Xiao, the most beautiful woman in the investment department, although Wang Lan is not as beautiful as Cheng Xiao, she has brought out the feminine beauty to the extreme. Sure enough, the developed young women are definitely the objects of fantasy for countless men. Even Li Li can’t compare to this. this… The investment department is almost becoming a show. Who would have thought that being a member of the investment department would give me such benefits. “Tsk, these stinky men, their eyeballs are about to fall out.” Staff lounge. Several female employees gathered together, and it was obvious that they were extremely dissatisfied with their male colleague’s performance today. “That’s right. They all look like they have never seen a woman before.” “You usually only know how to show your affection to Cheng Xiao, but from now on, you will revolve around the newcomer.” “Shh, keep your voice down, Cheng Xiao is Mr. Lu’s person.” Gossip is everywhere. As for the people in the investment department, they all understood that Mr. Lu treated Cheng Xiao differently. This also caused many male colleagues who wanted to get close to Cheng Xiao to stay away. As for the newcomer, he has already caused a sensation. “Look at how his waist is twisted. He’s not afraid of spraining it.” “You might as well just call her ‘slutty’.” “Isn’t it?” The smile and frown just now were clearly meant to seduce men. This is treating the investment department as a hunting ground. You know, there are many elites in the investment department. They are all high quality men. Those who understand the principle that those who are close to the water get the moon first will understand. Besides, the company has no rules prohibiting office romance. Who doesn’t want to find a high quality man to rely on for the rest of their life? “Ahem…” They were only halfway through the conversation when Li Li appeared and instantly ended the topic. “Mr. Li, come and make coffee too.” “Nothing to do?” What Li Li hates most is gossip. After all, Li Li was also a victim of gossip in the past. When I first joined the company, gossip about Li Li started to spread. What Mr. Lu’s special assistant is actually Mr. Lu’s mistress. Such remarks were widely circulated in the first two or three months. In the end, it was Li Li who reversed the reputation through her own abilities. His vigorous and resolute style has established his position in the company. Li Li: Gossip? It seems that the workload is too light, so you have no time to chat. As for the newcomer Wang Lan, Lu Yiming has already talked to Li Li. This person’s ability was also recognized by Li Li. Just kidding, Wang Lan is also a well known name in the investment community of Shanghai. Although he has a bad reputation, there have always been rumors that he will do anything to achieve his goals. But for Li Li, it doesn’t matter what means are used, as long as the task can be accomplished. Besides, Lu Yiming prepared the position of logistics director for Wang Lan, which was directly putting Wang Lan in danger. Whether it is the director of the logistics department or the deputy general manager in charge. We will be doubly cautious against the person invited by Lu Yiming. Li Li didn’t know whether Wang Lan could achieve results at this time, but one thing was certain, the entire logistics department was now united as one. How Wang Lan plans to break the impasse remains unknown. If gossip and rumors continue to spread from the Investment Department, it will disrupt Lu Yiming’s arrangements. This was obviously not what Lu Yiming wanted. What Li Li needs to do is to nip these messages in the bud. As for Lu Yiming’s office at this time. “It’s timely.” “Of course, I am very dedicated to my work.” Wang Lan sat nonchalantly opposite the desk. Wang Lan has been in a good mood these two days. Especially yesterday’s angry response to Mr. Zhang was definitely the highlight of my time in recent years. Mr. Zhang had planned everything, but he never expected that Wang Lan would actually resign. Mr. Zhang really lost his composure yesterday. For Gaoyuan Capital, losing Wang Lan is like losing an arm. After all, Wang Lan’s abilities are obvious to all. Any investment company would treasure such a trump card. But Gaoyuan Capital chose to cut off one of its own arms. This move is likely to make people in the industry laugh out loud. Seeing that Wang Lan had made up her mind, Mr. Zhang also threatened Wang Lan. If Wang Lan really wants to leave Gaoyuan Capital, according to the signed contract, she will not be able to engage in investment related work within two years. If there is any violation, Gaoyuan Capital’s investment department will not take any action against it. Two years, two years is enough time for a lot of things to happen. It will also make the investment community forget this former ‘star’. This is a lose lose situation for both parties. Mr. Zhang even promised to give Wang Lan a raise in an attempt to retain her. But he didn’t expect that Wang Lan had already made up his mind to leave. Ever since she learned about Su Rongrong’s true identity, Wang Lan knew very well that Gaoyuan Capital could not give her what she wanted. This time is a very typical example. Even if I give in this time, if I have a conflict with Su Rongrong at work again this year, the company will not stand on my side. Moreover, it would be impossible for me to obtain high quality resources. Instead of this, I might as well withdraw voluntarily, which would save face for both parties. Wang Lan is very ambitious. Salary increase? Sorry, for Wang Lan, who earns a million dollars a year, making money is no longer her ultimate goal. Challenges, future, and achievements are what Wang Lan wants to pursue. And this time, Lu Yiming gave Wang Lan an opportunity, an opportunity to prove her worth. Leave your comfort zone and take on new challenges. For Wang Lan, Lu Group is the best challenge. Change of dynasty? It’s exciting just thinking about it. “Have you reported in?” “I’m obviously not very welcome.” When reporting in, Wang Lan already felt a deep sense of defensiveness. Obviously, the other party has already found out some inside information. It seems that it will not be easy to start work in the future. “If it were easy, I wouldn’t have recruited you.” “I just like the way you speak the truth.” “Don’t be so cocky. If you make a mistake, I won’t give you any more chances.” “ruthless.” “Then prove your ability.” “Give me a month.” “Can.” What Lu Yiming admired most about Wang Lan was this aura. One month, to be honest, Wang Lan’s situation is quite difficult at the moment. For Lu Yiming, if he could break through the impasse in a month, this deal would be a great bargain. “Look, I can shine wherever I go.” “We’ll see.” On the first day at work, the new head of logistics department of Lu Group revealed his identity to everyone. I am Mr. Lu’s man. Chapter 87 Go home and drink soup! “Stinky boy, do you know you still have a home?” The resentment on the phone was real. It can be heard that Lu Aijun is quite unhappy at the moment. “Ahem, I’ve been a bit busy lately.” “Your Aunt Zhang asked you to go home and drink soup.” Lu Aijun focuses on the attitude that a strict father should have. Zhang Qian, who was sitting next to Lu Aijun, had an amused look on her face. It was obvious that she was missing her son, but she put herself in front. Lu Aijun is a person of such character. However, Lu Yiming rarely went home during this period. Zhang Qian basically doesn’t care about business matters. She just needs to play her role as a good wife. This is also the reason why Lu Aijun has favored Zhang Qian alone for so many years. Know when to advance and when to retreat, and understand when to lose. My vision was correct; Zhang Qian was indeed the most ideal candidate for the mistress of the Lu family. If it were someone else, there might be unrest in the family, after all, the Lu family’s assets are out in the open. Who doesn’t want more for their children? But Zhang Qian is not like that. After hanging up the phone, Lu Aijun snorted, obviously angry. “Yiming has grown up a lot recently. You see, he hasn’t caused any trouble at home, and I heard that he’s doing well at the company.” “He has high aspirations but low skills. If I hadn’t protected him, he wouldn’t have been able to enjoy such a good life.” Lu Aijun was still unhappy. In the past few days, people who came to complain had almost broken down his office. In Lu Aijun’s opinion, his son was just too impatient. Lu Yiming’s little actions in private could not be hidden from Lu Aijun’s eyes. Why don’t you do something else? Why do you put people in the logistics department? Even a fool can see what Lu Yiming wants to do. His own position is not even stable yet he’s thinking about interfering in the affairs of other departments. “Not stable at all.” Perhaps, in the eyes of their father, children will always be like this. “Just be polite. I think Yiming is a good guy. You used to complain that Yiming caused you trouble. Now he can calm down and focus on his career. If you, as a father, don’t support him, who will?” Zhang Qian didn’t understand the big principles, but there was one thing she was clear about, and that was that family members should help each other. This is the bottom line. “You don’t know, this brat has grown wings. This time at the meeting, his investment department actually stood me up.” Speaking of this, Lu Aijun became extremely angry. This meeting was added deliberately. All the top executives of the group are here. That’s because President Lu is in charge personally. Lu Aijun summoned all the senior executives to give his son a chance. To put it bluntly, it means protecting one’s own people in the meeting. Let all the senior executives know that they support Lu Yiming’s recent actions. But Lu Yiming actually sent a low level employee from the investment department to attend the meeting. He just came and didn’t explain anything. The scene at that time was so embarrassing. The low level employee in the investment department was almost scared to tears. Even if I want to make up for it, I can’t. A high level meeting turned into a farce. Even if I wanted to cover it, I wouldn’t have the chance. The key point is that everything Lu Yiming does is highly confidential, and no one except the investment department has received any news. Even I was kept in the dark. All the elites originally arranged were cleared out of the investment department. Lu Aijun saw this point clearly. These people were all close confidants of the top leaders. I hope you, Lu Yiming, know it clearly. At worst, just don’t let them get involved in important matters. But Lu Yiming just didn’t want to be like everyone else. Those people were forcibly kicked out of the investment department and sent back to where they came from. This time, he offended almost all departments and all senior executives. This alone made Lu Aijun have to deal with it for several days. Now, even if I want to meet this brat, I have to make an appointment in advance. “Don’t be so cocky.” “You’re showing off? I’m almost pissed off!” “Okay, we’re an old married couple. I don’t know you yet. I guess you’re very happy. Yiming has such ability. No matter how big the trouble he gets into, you can help him cover it.” “Hey…” It has to be said that the person who knows Lu Aijun best is Zhang Qian. Although he always complains about his son in front of him. However, the pride in his eyes could not be hidden. Yes, Lu Yiming would indeed get into trouble, but these were the things that Lu Aijun wanted to see. After all, the Lu Group will eventually be handed over to Lu Yiming. If Lu Yiming can’t even deal with these old guys. How could Lu Aijun let go with peace of mind? Although Lu Aijun attaches great importance to friendship. But this also has a prerequisite, that is, the Lu Group is the Lu family’s Lu Group. This is the bottom line. Lu Aijun can turn a blind eye to the secret fighting on weekdays. But once you cross this bottom line. Don’t blame Lu Aijun for being cruel and ruthless. This time, he called his son back, probably because he had something to explain. “Okay, I’ll go make some soup so Yiming doesn’t have any soup to drink when he comes back.” “Ahem, it’s been very humid lately.” “I know. Don’t worry.” Zhang Qian could see that Lu Aijun cared deeply about his son. That’s right, otherwise Lu Yiming had caused such a big disaster in his previous life, Lu Aijun would rather give up the Lu Group that he had worked hard for his whole life, in order to save Lu Yiming. We can also see some clues from this point. At this time, in the Lu Group. “Okay, let’s do as planned. Li Li, you will be in charge of keeping a close eye on the telecommunications side. We need to speed up the progress. As soon as the approval comes out, we will prepare for a publicity campaign.” “clear.” Li Li nodded. To be honest, Lu Yiming’s arrangements in this regard were very thorough. Even for myself, there is nothing much to add. “Cheng Xiao, go and contact the company’s publicity department. What I need is to promote the handheld wireless phone system to all aspects and let every family know about it.” “Okay, but it’s about the budget.” “Don’t worry about the budget.” “Got it. I’ll go discuss a few alternative plans.” “Also, the Propaganda Department is not ours, so don’t let them fool you.” “good.” To be honest, Lu Yiming was also very tired. After all, there are still some big problems within the company. Intrigue will hinder Lu Yiming’s established goals, and Lu Yiming will never allow this to happen. It just so happened that my father was looking for me. Even if his father didn’t say anything, Lu Yiming was thinking whether he should have a good talk with him. “Okay, if anything happens, no matter what time it is, just call me. My phone is on 24 hours a day.” Now is the most critical moment. This is Lu Yiming’s first battle after taking over the investment department, and he must make a splash no matter what. After Lu Yiming gave the instructions, he left the company with peace of mind. The entire investment department was brightly lit, and it was another sleepless night. Chapter 88: Star Chasing? “What’s going on with the logistics department?” The first words he said when he saw Lu Yiming were questioning. No wonder the father and son had an unhappy relationship in their previous life. You clearly have the other person in your heart and are clearly willing to give everything for the other person. But he just doesn’t want to show it openly. “There’s a problem with the logistics department.” “If you have any questions, you can tell me directly.” My son is really ambitious. It hasn’t been long since he started working for the company, but he has already extended his hands into other departments. “Can you do it?” “you…” Lu Aijun was speechless for a moment. Yes, they were all old friends who had followed him for many years. Even if they really found out the problem, could he bring himself to do it? Before Lu Yiming is forced into a corner, I’m afraid Lu Aijun will really choose to stand by and watch. “You will not get support from me.” “Good.” Lu Aijun: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What kind of answer is this? “Dad, seriously, just don’t make trouble.” This answer is really heartbreaking. Lu Aijun was just about to slam the table when Zhang Qian came in carrying a scalded bowl. “Everything was fine, why are you arguing again?” At critical moments, someone has to put out the fire. “Aunt Zhang, we’re not arguing, we’re just discussing it.” “Yiming, your dad has a hard time too. He has been calling you non stop these past two days.” “Okay, there’s no need to tell him this.” Lu Aijun waved his hand and interrupted Zhang Qian’s topic. “Come over and have some soup, then play a game with me.” “No, Dad, with your level…” Lu Yiming originally wanted to complain, but after seeing his father’s expression, he swallowed it back silently. An hour later. Lu Aijun, who lost six games in a row, looked completely pale. Each game lasts 10 minutes. This is Go! Can you give yourself some face? “Dad, I’m going to sleep first. I’m busy these two days.” “How’s the matter at hand?” “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely give you a surprise.” Lu Yiming is full of confidence. It was not until Lu Yiming left the study that Lu Aijun threw the chess piece in his hand into the chess box. “This brat.” Lu Aijun’s face was full of relief. Indeed, I have grown up. He has the style of a great general. He even dared to talk back to me. To be honest, Lu Aijun has been waiting for this day for a long time. No matter how outstanding Lu Yiming is outside, if he always acts timidly in front of her, he will never accomplish anything great. As for Lu Yiming, he wanted to take action against his old brothers. If I were absolutely sure, I would never stop you. “Be content.” “Go, what do you know, you little brat, don’t you know how to give in to me a little.” Losing six games in a row within an hour was indeed a bit embarrassing for Lu Aijun. So, he took out the chess record beside him and continued to study it. As for the progress of handheld wireless telephone systems. Since reaching a cooperation agreement with Telecom, the project has been progressing at a gratifying speed. Telecom obtained the 1900MHz 1920MHz frequency band wireless access system within a week. With this network access license, the last barrier of the handheld wireless telephone system was also breached. Magic City Telecom. Lu Yiming represents Lu Group, Gao Wei represents Telecom, and Su Rongrong represents Gaoyuan Capital. The three parties sat together again. “Hello.” “There’s some noise.” They were sitting face to face. However, Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong still used the handheld wireless telephone system in their hands to communicate. “Noise is currently unavoidable, but the effect will be greatly improved at different base stations.” Current technology cannot break through this point. But in terms of stability, the handheld wireless phone system is still superior. only… “You two, our engineers have conducted several rounds of tests on the handheld wireless phone system and the results are impressive, but the signal level still needs to be improved.” The only drawback of the handheld wireless phone system is the signal problem. Although Telecom has begun to modify existing base stations, it is still unable to avoid the decline in call quality caused by signal . “What if we increase the signal output?” “It will have a certain negative impact, and once we do this, I’m afraid the other two operators will take advantage of us.” It took a lot of effort to approve the 1900MHz 1920MHz frequency band. To be honest, the Su family used all their connections to get this network access permit. This is not something that one person can decide. At the Standing Committee meeting, the leaders supported by the Su family had done their homework, which allowed them to get through the crisis. “The communication problem in the Magic City can be completely dealt with. However, some areas in other provinces are still under construction, and the speed of promotion may be restricted accordingly.” Although the telecommunications industry has reached a consensus to vigorously develop handheld wireless telephone systems. I also want to make a comeback with the handheld wireless telephone system. However, the weak infrastructure is not so easy to change. “That’s enough. Major cities should promote it first.” Lu Yiming thought about it and realized that if he really waited until everything was ready, the opportunity would probably be lost. At this time, we must snatch the customers away. “That’s it. We have drawn up a partial promotion plan, including a road show. At the same time, we will increase the publicity of the handheld wireless phone system. However, this name is too catchy.” “Mr. Lu, do you have any better suggestions?” “PhS.” Well, the original flavor is the classic. The name Xiaolingtong is so deeply rooted in people’s hearts. “Xiaolingtong? That’s a good name. It reminds me of an early science fiction novel.” “The name was inspired by this. It is simple and easy to understand, which is more suitable for the domestic market.” On this point, Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong’s views are surprisingly consistent. As for promotion, the three parties work together. Especially the stores under the telecommunications department. Moreover, we launched full scale efforts at the first opportunity. However, for Lu Yiming, this still seems a little insufficient. It is difficult for Xiaolingtong to achieve explosive growth relying solely on offline advertising and word of mouth. What Lu Yiming needs to consider is how to make Xiaolingtong popular among people in the shortest possible time. There is no need to worry about the supply of goods. Lu Group has signed a supply agreement, and the payment will be settled every three months. This is a result that both parties are satisfied with. Newly produced PHS phones have been shipped into the country in large quantities. Domestic production lines are also being planned and built at full speed. After the three parties reached a certain consensus, each was responsible for its own section. As for Lu Yiming, he set his sights on… “Are you interested?” “What are you interested in?” “Chasing stars.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I thought Lu Yiming was pulling me aside to whisper something. star? Sorry, Su Rongrong said that she really didn’t get the point. As for Lu Yiming, he probably wants to focus his attention on the female star. Chapter 89 On the Pirate Ship “Are you ill?” “What are you talking about?” After 30 minutes, Su Rongrong was completely confused by Lu Yiming. When I came to my senses, I was already at the airport. Lu Yiming actually brought Su Rongrong directly to the airport. This is truly getting on a pirate ship. Su Rongrong just wanted to ask what Lu Yiming wanted to do! Direct flight to Hong Kong? Just kidding, it’s not easy to go to Hong Kong in this era. Fortunately, these two are not ordinary people. But until this moment, Su Rongrong still didn’t know what Lu Yiming was crazy about. “The plane tickets are all bought.” “I’m not going!” Flying to Hong Kong alone with you, Lu Yiming, isn’t that like a sheep walking into a wolf’s mouth? By then, there won’t be even any bones left. “For work.” “Lu Yiming, don’t try to fool me with this.” Su Rongrong would never believe what Lu Yiming said. For work? You’re kidding! “Hey…” My position in Su Rongrong’s heart is really debatable. “You also want Xiaolingtong to become a hit.” “What do you mean?” “Advertising, of course.” “Lu Yiming, am I a fool in your eyes? You put up an advertisement, not in the newspaper office or on TV, but you take me to Hong Kong?” Su Rongrong seriously doubted whether Lu Yiming thought she was a fool. “Who’s the most popular one right now?” “What’s the meaning?” “Celebrities, the most popular ones are all from Hong Kong and Taiwan.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, we have to admit that this era is indeed an era in which Hong Kong and Taiwan stars are popular. But the problem is, even if you want to shoot a commercial, you don’t have to travel all the way to Hong Kong. “There will be unexpected gains.” “Why me?” “I’m afraid I can’t control myself. Think about it, I’m young, rich, and suave. What if a female star falls in love with me? Should I give in? Or should I struggle?” “Lu Yiming!” Shameless, shameless men are not new to me, but someone like Lu Yiming really opened my eyes. “We are acquainted, so help me keep away some romantic partners.” “Bah, what kind of woman is so blind to…” Su Rongrong was just about to complain, but Lu Yiming received a note. this?! The flight attendant who just passed by actually handed Lu Yiming a note? How could such a scene actually happen? And it’s right in front of you? “Lu Yiming, did you plan this a long time ago?” Su Rongrong looked suspicious, this was too much of a coincidence. I just questioned it, and a flight attendant came to my door? “Ahem, I’ll be with you the whole time.” “I suggest that girl get her eyesight checked.” Su Rongrong made a ruthless complaint. Su Rongrong: Forget it. Why should I be angry? To be honest, this bastard is indeed good looking, but he has a vicious heart. I can only blame those girls for not knowing how to judge people. Everyone was deceived by Lu Yiming’s appearance. “I said before, I was indeed blinded by my own greed last time, but there really is something fishy going on.” “Lu Yiming, believe it or not, I will beat you up!” Do you know what it means to not mention the past again? Are you, Lu Yiming, forcing yourself to do it? If Lu Yiming had not seized the control of Xiaolingtong, Su Rongrong would never want to have any contact with Lu Yiming in her life. Also, that scene in the company was absolutely a huge shame for Su Rongrong. Especially when she thought about her close contact with Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong felt her hair stand on end. It’s not relevant to bring up this issue. I’m afraid only Lu Yiming could excite the eldest lady of the Su family to this extent. “I say, you are always kind to everyone, but when it comes to me, you become a different person.” “Shut up!” In Lu Yiming’s opinion, Su Rongrong’s fierce and aggressive look was really adorable. It’s a pity that the beginning was a little difficult, otherwise… Being able to sit together and talk now is a huge improvement. At least at this time, Su Rongrong did not turn around and leave. When you are out, of course you should enjoy yourself. Of course, Lu Yiming booked a business class ticket. It was not until the moment she boarded the plane that Su Rongrong began to regret her decision. I was just busy being angry. How come you got on the plane so late? By the way, I didn’t even prepare a suitcase. “Champagne?” “hehe!” Sure enough, he had bad intentions. It was a common tactic used by playboys to create a romantic atmosphere. Then lower your guard further. “I’m warning you, don’t mess with me.” “What are you talking about? I am also Party A after all. Your Gaoyuan Capital’s service concept is not good. I want to complain.” Su Rongrong felt like her tail was stepped on at this moment. He jumped up instantly and wanted to fight Lu Yiming to the death. It would be fine if this wasn’t mentioned, but as soon as the company was mentioned, Su Rongrong thought of Wang Lan. Although Wang Lan did want to steal his contract. But this is also an internal contradiction of Gaoyuan Capital. What do you mean, Lu Yiming? It would have been fine if he just interfered, but he actually poached Wang Lan away. This has made Mr. Zhang very worried these past two days. After all, Wang Lan is still very important to Gaoyuan Capital. Many customers are in Wang Lan’s hands. Mr. Zhang has been so worried these past two days that his hair has turned white. Of course, Su Rongrong cannot be blamed for this matter, but it is still closely related to Su Rongrong. Originally Su Rongrong didn’t want to mention it, but you, Lu Yiming, still have the nerve to call yourself Party A? “Miss, the plane is about to take off. Please take your seat as soon as possible.” Su Rongrong’s unusual behavior immediately attracted the attention of the flight attendant. “Ahem, sorry, my girlfriend is like this.” “Who is your girlfriend?” “That’s not the point. The plane is about to take off.” “Speak clearly!” Su Rongrong was so angry that her teeth were itching. Why is it that every time I am with Lu Yiming, I always have the thought of stabbing him? “Miss?” “call!” The passengers in business class were all watching, so Su Rongrong could only hold back her anger and sit down in her seat with a sullen face. As for Lu Yiming, he kept apologizing. But to Su Rongrong, it sounded like he was just taking advantage of her verbally. You call me girlfriend all the time. You really are used to it! Su Rongrong’s expression was cold until the plane took off. Along the way, Su Rongrong didn’t say a word. As for Lu Yiming, he probably realized that he had angered Su Rongrong, so he finally calmed down. Well, if I provoke Su Rongrong again, I’m afraid she and I will die together. At this time, Hong Kong TVB received an email. The representative of the Lu Group in Modu wants to discuss advertising. This is really the first time. Although 1997 was approaching and TVB’s top management was trying hard to get closer to the mainland, there were still many differences between the two sides . This resulted in very little contact between TVB and mainland companies. In the stereotype of some senior executives of TVB. The mainland is still a poor and backward place. An invitation from the mainland? It seems that it has not received enough attention. Wireless just randomly sent a staff member to pick us up at the airport. Even the passing vehicles were not prepared. Chapter 90 According to the script, there should be only one room left 【Welcome Mr. Lu】 Lu Yiming felt embarrassed when reading these tiny handwritings. Su Rongrong standing by almost laughed to death, as if she was venting her anger. So, this is how Hong Kong welcomes guests? It seems that I have informed Cheng Xiao clearly that I am the financial sponsor, and you are just here to welcome your father? ! “I’m Lu Yiming.” “Hello, this is Mr. Lu.” “Do you know Mandarin?” “Stew the hen.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Feeling totally unappreciated. TVB didn’t even send a car, let alone arrange a hotel. After hard communication, the staff originally planned to arrange the two people to stay at the Regent Hotel in Wangzai. The name sounded good, but when I got there, it was even worse than the guesthouses in China. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Mr. Lu, this place is still very close to Victoria Harbour.” The staff also looked embarrassed at this time. But there is no way. The top management has not reimbursed the funds at all. According to the most ordinary reception level, this is just the amount of money in total. “That’s great. I’ll change places.” Su Rongrong would never let herself be wronged. What’s more, the people coming in and out were either skinny or full of flesh. No matter how you look at him, he doesn’t look like a good person. Besides, Hong Kong today is a place where gangsters are rampant and capital is growing wildly. For the Governor of Hong Kong, after 1998, it was no longer his business. Apart from plundering the remaining value, what does Hong Kong have to do with him even if it is in tatters? A major reshuffle of capital, coupled with the rampant behavior of certain forces. Hong Kong today cannot be said to be particularly safe. If I really lived in a place like this, God knows what would happen. “Mr. Lu, Ms. Su, if you want to change places, I’m afraid you will need to bear the corresponding expenses yourself.” Some things are better informed in advance. I originally thought that the two of them were dissatisfied with the environment here and wanted to change to a cleaner hotel. But in the end, the two of them directly chose the Peninsula Hotel. this… To be honest, the staff member in charge of reception has never set foot here in his life. The Peninsula Hotel is the oldest existing hotel in Hong Kong. It is also one of the most luxurious and famous hotels currently. It is known as A Symphony of Lights. Of course, the guests who stay here are either rich or noble. Looking around, most of them are foreigners. “why are you laughing?” Looking at the smile on Lu Yiming’s lips, Su Rongrong felt very strange. “Normally in this situation, according to the script, there is only one room left.” “hehe…” Su Rongrong gave Lu Yiming a delicate eye roll. According to the script? Do you really think you are the male protagonist? One more room. The Peninsula Hotel is famous for having many rooms. unless… “Sorry, two guests, the hotel has a high level reception task recently, and now there is only one king size bed room left.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Lu Yiming: (● ◡ ● ) Lu Yiming: When has my mouth ever been opened? “What about the suite?” Su Rongrong still didn’t give up. “There are no more suites.” “Presidential suit!” Su Rongrong was already gritting her teeth. “I do have this, but the price…” The presidential suite at the Peninsula Hotel costs 28,888 per night, which is considered astronomical in today’s world. “Swipe the card.” The only black gold card in the country, although not as unlimited as the Centurion Black Gold, but the limit of 10 million is already the ceiling level. As the eldest daughter of the Su family, a black gold card is naturally nothing to Su Rongrong. But Su Rongrong is usually very low key. Living in the dormitory for four years in college, it can be seen that Su Rongrong is definitely not the type who seeks enjoyment. But this time, in order to draw a clear line with Lu Yiming, the presidential suite is worth it. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… It’s a luxury. The key is that I don’t have a black gold card. It’s not that the son of the Lu Group does not have the qualifications, but Lu Aijun will never guarantee Lu Yiming. Adhering to the idea that his son must be raised in poverty, all of Lu Yiming’s expenses were strictly restricted from childhood to adulthood. The front desk staff immediately took the black gold card respectfully. A young lady, a typical young lady from a wealthy family. It is true that the guests of the Peninsula Hotel are either rich or noble, but only a handful of them can afford to stay in the presidential suite. “Miss, how many days do you want to process it?” Su Rongrong couldn’t answer this question, so she could only turn around and ask Lu Yiming. “If everything goes well, about a week.” “One week.” This is nearly 200,000 yuan, but Su Rongrong didn’t even blink an eye. “Ms. Su, we will give your friend a deluxe standard room for free…” “No, he’s not my friend, and he doesn’t need money.” “No, when you’re out, you should save money and spend money.” Lu Yiming said, does he still need face in front of Su Rongrong? No need! Isn’t it a good thing to be able to save money? A deluxe standard room costs 1,000 per night. Why waste this money? Su Rongrong: As expected, Lu Yiming is the epitome of shamelessness. As for the TVB staff, they were completely dumbfounded at this moment. this… This is the real boss. It turns out this is how rich people spend money. You have to know that in this era, a popular artist of TVB would only earn a maximum of more than 10,000 yuan for appearing in one episode of a TV series. This is the price of the Best Actor and Best Actress. For an ordinary veteran actor, a few hundred to a thousand is the most he can earn. Still a golden supporting role. I worked as a helper in the crew for a day, 100 yuan plus two meals. Even so, the treatment I receive is something that other extras envy. But compared with the two in front of me, oh no, the fairy ladies in front of me, there is a world of difference. This Miss Su, just looking at her looks, even the heroines are not as pretty as her. Who would have thought that he was such a wealthy man. Wait, I have to notify the boss right away. The top management completely misjudged the situation. At this time, the professional butler of the Peninsula Hotel was already waiting behind Su Rongrong. “Dear guest, your exclusive VIP elevator is ready. The hotel also offers an exclusive SPA service tonight. Please tell me what your dinner preferences are. We will do our best to satisfy them.” This is the VVIP treatment. As for Lu Yiming. A cool breeze blew by, and no one paid any attention. It seems like I am the protagonist! Holding the free room card in his hand, he looked at himself with a helpless look on his face. “Tell your boss that we are here to discuss cooperation. We will be at the hotel tomorrow. No later than the appointed time.” “Understood, Mr. Lu, don’t worry, I will definitely pass it on.” Well, this person’s tongue is straightened out. Didn’t he say he can’t speak Mandarin? What I am saying now is pretty good. Chapter 91 Advertising Placement “Are you sure it’s the Peninsula Hotel? Or the Presidential Suite?” TVB boss Zhuang Sheng was shocked. “It’s absolutely true. I saw it with my own eyes.” The staff were very excited. How could they not be excited? They had never thought in their lives that one day they would be able to have a direct conversation with the big boss. The news is reported up the chain of command. Finally got the attention of the big boss. Meeting the big boss, my heart was filled with excitement. “Nonsense.” How do these people down there do their work? Such an important guest came, but we were so stupid as to not know how to receive him. “What’s the other party like?” “Very young, handsome and beautiful.” “Um?” They are not the mainland entrepreneurs that I have in mind. In this day and age, the traditional impression of Hong Kong people is that mainland entrepreneurs should wear a white shirt, suit pants, a playboy belt, a pager, and a mobile phone. Of course, this outfit is indeed a bit rustic. But this image has long been deeply rooted in people’s hearts. “Boss, they said they will wait for one day at the hotel tomorrow, and they will not wait after that time.” The staff member was very cautious when he said this, fearing that the big boss would be angry. After all, in Hong Kong, the big boss is definitely one of the few big bosses. No one has ever dared to speak like this. “knew.” But what is the result? The big boss didn’t get angry. Instead, he remained silent for a long time and ended the conversation with a single word, “I know.” “Go out.” After all the problems have been explained, let the other party go down and rest first. Several senior executives of TVB got together. “You are so rude, young man.” “That’s right. This isn’t the mainland. You’re acting so arrogantly here, why are you giving us a day?” “Boss, let’s just not go. Whoever wants to go can go find them.” “Don’t get excited, everyone. Maybe he really is someone important.” “Young people don’t know how high the heavens are or how deep the earth is. What can they achieve?” “It’s almost 97, can you please use your brains?” “this…” Two completely different voices. One is still high and mighty, and the other is to prepare for a rainy day. Of course, the final decision still lies in the hands of the big boss. “Go, meet the two young men. Ah Guang is right. It’s almost 97. If we want to get through it safely, we must show our sincerity.” During this period, all the artists under the big boss have issued their own statements. There is only one China. Returning to the embrace of China is what every Hong Kong resident desires most in their hearts. Whether it’s sincere or not. The general trend is unstoppable, and any discordant voices are like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. As for the two kids in front of me, how dare they do this without any confidence? Now that I am in this position, I have to consider things comprehensively. Early the next morning, a Rolls Royce drove into the Peninsula Hotel. “Mr. Lu, Ms. Su, our boss would like to invite two distinguished guests for morning tea.” “It’s my pleasure.” “Thanks.” Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong looked at each other. As expected, if you want to gain the respect of others, you must show the corresponding confidence. What people value is not your status, but your generosity in spending money lavishly. Staying in the presidential suite for a week and being able to meet the big boss of TVB is a worthwhile deal. “Remember to claim reimbursement.” “That’s too much. You’re the one enjoying it.” Uh, I just want to ask, when did these two become so harmonious? However, Lu Yiming also admired Su Rongrong’s methods. His grasp of people’s hearts is just right. Completely different from yesterday. He even took out his own car today. Everyone in Hong Kong knows who this Rolls Royce with license plate 666 belongs to. It can be said that in Hong Kong, this car can go anywhere. Even the Governor’s House can be accessed unimpeded. TVB’s headquarters is located in Tsim Sha Tsui. Along the way, the surrounding vehicles gave way. This is also a respect for the boss. After all, in Hong Kong, there are not many luxury cars that can enjoy this kind of “privilege”. “Mr. Lu, Ms. Su, welcome to Hong Kong. I hope you two will forgive me for the poor reception yesterday.” “Zhuang Sheng is joking. We were rude.” “Haha, a guest is a guest. Come and try our Hong Kong morning tea culture.” Hong Kong style morning tea is a direct descendant of Cantonese style morning tea. But in Hong Kong, it is further subdivided. It is divided into seven levels: small, medium, large, special, top, super and beautiful. Shrimp dumplings, steamed pork siu mai, egg tarts and barbecued pork buns are known as the four kings of Hong Kong morning tea. This century old shop is also the favorite teahouse of TVB boss Zhuang Sheng. Generally speaking, unless there are special circumstances, 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. is Mr. Zhuang’s fixed morning tea time. Inviting Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong together today has shown great sincerity. “What would you two like to eat?” “The guest follows the host’s wishes.” “Then I’ll make the decision.” Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong were not in a hurry and chatted with Zhuang Sheng. Of course, during this time, Zhuang Sheng also got to know the background of the two young men in front of him. If he were in Hong Kong, Zhuang Sheng’s influence would be very great, so it would not be difficult to find out the truth about a person. But once it came to the mainland, Zhuang Sheng’s forces couldn’t get in at all, and he was completely in the dark. In this era, there is not much contact between the two sides. However, Zhuang Sheng could tell from their behavior that they were both children of wealthy families. Without good education, these cannot be reflected. “You two, are you coming to Hong Kong just for advertising?” “TVB is the largest radio station in Hong Kong. What we value are the stars of TVB.” Lu Yiming already had a goal. Moreover, the timing is just right. “I wonder which artist is under my management? Don’t worry, the price will be fair.” “Zheng XX.” “he?” Zhuang Sheng looked confused. this… I originally thought he was a household name. It is worth it for you two to come here from afar. At least it’s at the big name level. Hong Kong’s film and television industry is well developed, but the real big names are either the Four Heavenly Kings or Zhou Hecheng. As for Zheng XX just mentioned, he is just a young actor who has just become popular. Is it a bit exaggerated to make such a fuss for this person? “5 million yuan for endorsement fees, 6 years of endorsement, one advertisement per year, and product placement in TV series and movies.” Lu Yiming went straight to the point. To be honest, this endorsement price is not expensive. 5 million for 6 years, you can’t hire a superstar, and even big names may not be willing. However, for a young man like Zheng XX, this is already very generous. “That’s all easy to talk about, but what does Lu Sheng mean by product placement?” In this era, advertising time is allowed to be inserted in the middle of TV dramas, which is also a means for major TV stations to generate revenue. Therefore, the later concept of product placement was not taken seriously in this era. Even Zhuang Sheng was confused when he heard this new term. Chapter 92 Zhuang Sheng After Lu Yiming explained the concept of advertising placement, Zhuang Sheng was impressed and thought it was an extremely good idea. Why didn’t I think of it before? As for Su Rongrong, she also looked at Lu Yiming in surprise. I have to say, this bastard’s brain is extremely active, he can even come up with such a method. Inserting Xiaolingtong advertisements in movies or TV series can make more people remember them. This also saves advertising costs. Of course, you must have a good eye, and only by watching hit dramas and blockbuster movies can you get better results. As for this Zheng XX, Su Rongrong said that she was not familiar with him. Maybe it’s because I don’t pay much attention to the entertainment industry. But looking at Lu Yiming’s confident look, he seemed to have everything planned out. 5 million in advertising expenses is not a small sum in this day and age. “The price is reasonable, and I don’t see any reason not to agree.” Zhuang Sheng wiped his mouth and smiled. Business is a small matter. Zhuang Sheng’s main concern is to get closer to the mainland. This time, for Zhuang Sheng, it may be a once in a lifetime opportunity. Some time before, Zhuang Sheng also tried to communicate with the mainland. However, I tried some businesses, but all ended in failure. A lot of money was spent, but the results were not as expected. Meeting these two people today may be a good breakthrough. “Thank you, Mr. Zhuang.” “You two, you should not be in a hurry to go back. During this period, Zhuang is hosting. Although Xiangjiang is not big, the scenery is nice.” Today, Hong Kong plays an extremely important role. Whether it is finance or other aspects, it is far superior to Shanghai. As for the contract, just let the people below sort it out. Zhuang Sheng didn’t pay much attention to the artist Zheng XX. He only knew that he filmed a movie during this period. It has not been released yet. I think it was called “Young and Dangerous”. However, there have been many films of this type produced in Hong Kong, but only a few of them have been truly successful. Not to mention it’s a big hit. I don’t know where this young man gets his confidence from. “Mr. Lu, are there any good investment projects in the mainland recently?” “Zhuang Sheng has asked the right person. Miss Su is the top executive of the investment bank.” “Oh, then I must learn from Miss Su.” To be honest, when Zhuang Sheng saw Su Rongrong for the first time, he was stunned by her beauty. Although he has many female artists under his command, there is only one like Su Rongrong. If he is willing to film a movie, Zhuang Sheng has absolute confidence that he can make Su Rongrong famous. There are many beauties in Hong Kong, but it is rare to find one as ethereal as Su Rongrong. It’s a pity that Su Rongrong’s identity makes it impossible for her to show herself in public. As for those unspoken rules, it is impossible for them to be used on Su Rongrong. Zhuang Sheng is not a fool. Su Rongrong didn’t expect that Lu Yiming would recommend her to Zhuang Sheng. Among these bigwigs in Hong Kong, Zhuang Sheng’s strength is not the most outstanding, but he has a high social status. Since they have control over the media, it would be a good choice if the two sides could cooperate. But when did Lu Yiming become so kind? Before she knew Zhuang Sheng’s background, Su Rongrong couldn’t promise anything. “Lu Sheng, don’t worry about the contract. It will be done before this afternoon. As for the advertisement, I will introduce you to a fat guy. He is very spiritual.” As for who the fat boy Zhuang Sheng was talking about, Lu Yiming seemed to have guessed it. It is indeed a good choice. The king of “bad movies” in later generations. Of course, many classic movies have also been made. Young and Dangerous was written by him. Advertising placement shouldn’t be a problem for him. Lu Yiming is quite interested in movies. However, the rules of this industry are too strict, and now is not the best time period. If you don’t have strong connections, it’s better to stay away from it. After Zhuang Sheng left, Su Rongrong’s gaze fell on Lu Yiming. “Don’t look at me like that, I might misunderstand.” “Haha, tell me, what on earth are you planning?” Su Rongrong sneered. The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. Lu Yiming must have set a trap for herself. “Don’t think of me like that, okay? I’m really doing this for your own good.” “No.” “Do I have so little credibility in your eyes?” “Lu Yiming, do you have any shame? And credibility, do you have any credibility? Also, there is no place for you in my heart at all.” Su Rongrong had a look of disgust on her face. This bastard poaches people whenever he gets the chance. Is that good for me? When it comes to squeezing the contract, this guy won’t give an inch. “I call this making the best use of everything. Okay, cooperating with Zhuang Sheng is not a trap. Of course, we should also be careful. After all, Zhuang Sheng’s beginnings were not clean.” In Hong Kong, to be able to secure a position in the film and television industry requires a lot of skill. After all, there is money to be made in this area, and many associations are eyeing it. Since Zhuang Sheng was able to stand out, he was naturally involved. “I knew you had bad intentions.” Su Rongrong had an expression that said, “As expected.” “Of course, this is not absolute. Zhuang Sheng is not stupid. It is impossible to bring the old ways to the mainland. After all, there is zero tolerance for these things in the country.” After Hong Kong’s return to China, Zhuangzi performed remarkably well. He is considered one of the businessmen who have successfully transformed. And use your reputation to speak for the country. He is also considered one of the representative figures of red capitalists. Cooperating with Zhuang Sheng is not a disadvantage, otherwise, Lu Yiming would never have dragged Su Rongrong into this. After all, for Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong is his true love. “Don’t look at me like that.” Lu Yiming’s gaze was too hot and Su Rongrong couldn’t bear it. This bastard, once he gets affectionate, it really seems like that. His acting skills are top notch. It seems he fools girls a lot. I don’t believe it. I must not be fooled by Lu Yiming. “It’s sincere, okay?” “Hold on, and the Zheng XX you just mentioned is very famous?” “Not really, but better than being a nobody.” “Lu Yiming, you spent 5 million!” This money didn’t just come out of nowhere. After all, Lu Group and Gaoyuan Capital are now highly tied together. When one prospers, all prosper; when one suffers, all suffer. This is also the reason why Su Rongrong clearly did not want to be with Lu Yiming, but still risked the “danger” to come to Hong Kong. Su Rongrong must ensure that every investment is spent wisely. “Don’t get so excited. Just because you’re not famous now doesn’t mean you won’t be famous in the future.” “But what we lack most now is time!” “Don’t doubt my judgment.” “Okay, then I’ll wait and see.” Su Rongrong: Where does this bastard get his confidence from? But Lu Yiming’s performance during this period refreshed Su Rongrong’s perception of playboys. Suddenly I realized that I really couldn’t see Lu Yiming clearly. The dog is becoming more and more mysterious. Chapter 93 The Obscene Fat Man “Dad, I know. Don’t worry. I will take good care of myself.” Su Rongrong looked helpless. I was “kidnapped” to Hong Kong by Lu Yiming, and I definitely couldn’t hide this from my father. But Su Rongrong never expected that her father would be so nervous. I almost dropped everything and came to Hong Kong to ask for the person. It took a lot of persuasion and coaxing to finally convince my dad to cancel the trip. Yes, can Su Yunchang be at ease? My daughter went to Hong Kong alone with Lu Yiming. If anything happens, the Su family will be out of reach. I discovered that there was something wrong with Lu Yiming last time. If you want to cheat your “little cotton padded jacket” away, it’s impossible. Finally, after Su Rongrong’s repeated assurances, Su Yunchang was no longer so excited. “Dad, don’t worry. This is work. It’s really work. I also met with Mr. Zhuang from TVB. I can help the company attract some overseas business.” “Zhuang Sheng? My girl, you have to be careful. Although Zhuang Sheng is fine now, the nature of his origin is not good.” Su Yunchang was still a little worried, fearing that his daughter would suffer. This is exactly what Lu Yiming said. “I know.” “You know?” “Lu Yiming discussed this with me before.” “Well, this little Lu does have some insights. Of course, you still have to be careful. Boys nowadays are very wild.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Yes, it was really wild, they had already tied your daughter to the bed, and it was almost… Well, if my dad knew about this. I’m afraid there will be a real uproar. Half an hour later, Su Rongrong finally hung up the phone and rubbed her swollen forehead. Sure enough, once the old father starts to worry, he always nags endlessly. On the third day after arriving in Hong Kong, the Lu Group signed an advertising contract with TVB. As for that Zheng XX, Su Rongrong also saw the real person. A big boy with long hair and a bit shy. To be honest, this is really not in Su Rongrong’s taste. His appearance is not even as good as that bastard’s. I don’t know why Lu Yiming chose him. Zheng XX was also quite surprised. This is the first time I have received such a big endorsement. For Zheng XX, who had just made his debut, it was like a pie in the sky. Zheng XX behaved very modestly. As for Lu Yiming’s request, Wireless also tried its best to meet it. Not only did he speed up the progress of the advertisement, but Zhuang Sheng even contacted the previous crew personally and added a product placement advertisement. In the drama, the scene where Chen Haonan is holding a pager and calling Brother B focuses on the lightness of the pager. Even when he was being chased, at the critical moment, Chen Haonan smashed the weapon in his hand and finally escaped. I have to say, this ad placement is perfect. Lu Yiming was very satisfied. I am also looking forward to the upcoming movies. Due to time constraints, we only had one afternoon to finish the work. After finalizing the plan, the crew immediately got to work. “Are you interested in visiting the crew?” “Filming?” “It’s so fresh, I can’t let you act.” “snort.” Although I’m not a fan of celebrities, as a girl, I’m still curious about these things. As for the means of transportation, you don’t have to worry about it. The Peninsula Hotel naturally provides special cars for guests staying in its suites. Maybach 62. This is a luxury car worth tens of millions. The Peninsula Hotel has shown enough sincerity in this regard. As for Lu Yiming’s words, they were just incidental. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… To be honest, there is not much logistical support for filming in this era. The crew was arranged in an old residential area. For Hong Kong, where every inch of land is valuable. There are simply no resources to build a film and television city. Finding the right shot is often the most headache for the crew. Just like now. Hundreds of people gathered around the filming location to watch the fun. “So simple?” Su Rongrong, who had originally held out hope for the filming, now looked disgusted. The noisy environment and chaotic scene. It is hard to imagine that a classic movie was shot in such an environment. “It’s probably because the lead actor isn’t famous. If it was a big star, the crowd would probably be several times larger.” “That’s not easy.” How embarrassing would it be to perform in public? “So, this will help me hone my acting skills better.” This is one of the reasons why the older generation of Hong Kong actors are all very good at acting. Unlike domestic stars who are so delicate, their acting skills are directly exposed in public. Of course, the arrival of Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong also caused quite a stir. The appearance of Maybach 62 heralds the arrival of the big boss. But I didn’t expect that a group of young people would get off the Maybach. The combination of handsome men and beautiful women is naturally quite pleasing to the eyes. The key is that he is more of a star than a star. “Lu Sheng, Miss Su.” Zheng XX, who was rehearsing his lines, saw the sponsor coming and immediately stepped forward to greet him. “I hope I didn’t bother you.” “No, Zhuang Sheng, we have only two acts left before the end.” Zheng XX cherishes this opportunity very much. For him, who is still a little unknown at the moment, this is a very rare opportunity. Zheng XX also paid a lot for this. “Mr. Zhuang, Ms. Su, let me introduce the director to you.” Lu Yiming was very familiar with this director. Although they had no intersection in their previous life, his squinty eyes, big face, and the title of “King of Bad Movies” were naturally deeply rooted in people’s minds. However, this fat guy has a shortcoming. It’s a common problem among men as well. Lustful! Yes, it’s lustful. There are a lot of gossips about fat people. Female celebrities who are made famous by fat men have more scandals. Women don’t love bad men. At this moment, the fat man was stunned by Su Rongrong’s beauty at the first sight. I have been working in the film industry for so many years, and I have dealt with at least 800 beautiful women. But no one can compare to Miss Su in front of him. The feeling in my heart was like I had found my chosen one. This is a heart pounding feeling. The fat director’s expression is quite obscene. “Director, these two are…” Zheng XX just wanted to introduce. But he was pushed aside by the fat director. “Girl, are you interested in making a movie? I can tailor a movie for you and guarantee that you will become an instant hit!” The fat man’s obscene little expression completely showed his dirty thoughts written on his face. He stretched out his chubby, dirty hands. Su Rongrong couldn’t help but frown when she saw this expression. Zheng XX, who was standing by, was even more frightened. Others may not know, but Zheng XX knows it very well. The Miss Su in front of him is Zhuang Sheng’s guest of honor. Zhuang Sheng is always polite. If he offends this person, I’m afraid… Chapter 94 The Fat Man Seeking Death Facing the fat man’s extended dirty hands, Su Rongrong did not move for a long time. Cold atmosphere. “Miss, you are too disrespectful to me.” The fat director has been a little bit off lately. After all, I am also a famous second generation in the Hong Kong film industry. The fat man’s father has earned him a lot of popularity. And all of them are big boss level. Although the movies made by fat people are called “bad movies”, the audience likes them. Although it doesn’t have much depth, it is definitely a masterpiece among popcorn movies. There are many investors who want to work with the fat director. In Hong Kong, Fatty is on good terms with many community leaders. This also made the fat man feel elated. If he likes a woman, he will do anything to get her. Even if there is capital backing him, the fat man is not afraid. After all, the fat guy knows exactly what the female stars want most. The fat man has made many female stars famous, and this is his trump card. Many times, the fat man doesn’t need to give any hints, women will come to him automatically. After all, those women are willing to do anything to become famous. But what about now? The person I like actually puts on airs in front of me? Don’t you have any dignity to save in public? “Haha, Miss Su is shy.” Seeing this, Lu Yiming, who was standing by, reached out a hand for Su Rongrong. However, the fat director didn’t seem to intend to give Lu Yiming any face. When Lu Yiming stretched out his hand, he retracted his hand. There was a sneer on his chubby face. “director.” Zheng XX was anxious to explain, but the fat man didn’t give him a chance. “That’s it, that’s all for today.” At this moment, the fat man was extremely domineering. On the set, he had the greatest say and he had the final say on when to shoot. All the departments that had been prepared were dumbfounded. The director was unhappy. this… “According to the contract, the filming needs to end today.” The fat director was about to turn around when he heard Lu Yiming’s warning. “Young man, this is Hong Kong, not your mainland. You don’t have the final say here.” The fat director didn’t care about Lu Yiming at all, but made a joke with a look of contempt. In Hong Kong, it is not yet the turn of a mainlander to have the final say. “If there is no spirit of contract, I think we should re examine the cooperation between the two parties.” “It doesn’t matter.” The fat man shrugged indifferently. “knock off!” With just one word, the entire set fell silent. Su Rongrong and Lu Yiming looked at each other. They didn’t expect that they would meet such a tough guy. However, is this the way to force Su Rongrong and Lu Yiming to submit? This is underestimating Lu Yiming. Compared to the dandies, you fat guy are just a second generation shadow playboy. There’s really no comparison with Lu Yiming. Lu Yiming directly dialed Zhuang Sheng’s number. He informed Zhuang Sheng of the situation at the scene and expressed his dissatisfaction at the same time. Lu Yiming didn’t even bother to get entangled with the fat director. As for Zhuang Sheng at this moment, his expression instantly turned gloomy after answering the phone. In the past two days, Zhuang Sheng sent people to investigate the background of Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong. You don’t know until you check, and you’ll be shocked when you do. These two are no small figures in the mainland. The son of Lu Group. Although the Lu Group is not as wealthy as the wealthy families in Hong Kong, it is the leading private enterprise in the mainland. The key is that there is considerable support behind the Lu Group. As for Su Rongrong, her background is even more important. The eldest daughter of the Su family, the Su family is a century old family with complicated connections. The connections of the Su family are definitely what Zhuang Sheng dreams of. If I can cooperate with these two, I will definitely be able to get through next year safely. You can even be successful in the mainland. Zhuang Sheng has made up his mind to maintain good cooperation. But this fat guy actually made trouble at the critical moment? After hanging up the phone, Zhuang Sheng immediately called Fatty. But he didn’t expect that the fat man had become so powerful that he didn’t even give him face. The fat director is now in a difficult situation and has just announced that he will stop working. If I were to bow my head and admit defeat now, I would be slapping myself in the face. How can I continue to stay in this circle with dignity? Besides, I don’t make a living entirely at the expense of TVB. After all, TVB can no longer dominate the market in Hong Kong. Even if I was banned by TVB, there are still people willing to ask me to film. Fatty has quite a few film contracts. Facing Zhuang Sheng, the fat man was tough for once. After hanging up the phone, she glared at Lu Yiming fiercely. “Young man, this is Hong Kong, you better be careful!” This sentence is definitely not a threat. The fat man wanted to let Lu Yiming know who has the final say in Hong Kong. Even if you are a dragon, when you come to Hong Kong, you have to coil yourself! The fat man left the set and immediately took out his cell phone to contact the leader of the community he was familiar with. He cried and recounted his “tragic” experience, exaggerating it. Mainlanders are too bullying. Although everyone knows that the fat man must have exaggerated, there is one thing he said that is not wrong. This is Hong Kong, it is not the turn of other forces to intervene. After a few people in charge discussed it, they decided to teach the other party a lesson. This almost resulted in a killing order being issued. As for Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong at this time, they temporarily returned to the hotel after being comforted and repeatedly assured by Zhuang Sheng. Zhuang Sheng repeatedly assured that he would solve the problem tomorrow. But Zhuang Sheng never expected that the fat man was seeking death. As soon as Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong got out of the car, they were surrounded by several hooligans. “Run to the lobby. They don’t dare to do it in the hotel.” Lu Yiming realized that something was wrong and pushed Su Rongrong, who had not yet reacted. “What?” “run!” Without saying anything, Lu Yiming protected Su Rongrong and ran towards the hotel lobby. Although it is only 50 meters away, it seems so far away. Su Rongrong was a girl after all, and she was caught up in no time. “ah?!” Only then did Su Rongrong realize that she had encountered a violent incident. If I were caught, God knows what I would face. After all, Su Rongrong had heard about the chaos in Hong Kong. Just when Su Rongrong was in despair, Lu Yiming suddenly kicked out and kicked the nearest gangster away. “Don’t look back!” Su Rongrong could only rush forward, while Lu Yiming was held back by the other party. At this moment, the scene was in chaos. By the time Su Rongrong reacted, she had already rushed into the hotel lobby. When he turned around, Lu Yiming was surrounded by the gangsters. Two fists are no match for four hands. “Help!” Su Rongrong’s voice broke due to excitement. Hotel security responded quickly. It would be a huge scandal for the Peninsula Hotel if one of its guests got into trouble at the hotel entrance. Chapter 95 The Su Family’s Strength “Lu Yiming!” The gangsters who surrounded Lu Yiming immediately fled in all directions after the security took action. But at this time, Lu Yiming had already fallen to the ground. Su Rongrong could no longer care about anything else. Blood, yes blood, bleeding! “Lu Yiming, Lu Yiming!” Su Rongrong shook Lu Yiming frantically. There were footprints on several parts of his body. “Ahem, stop, stop shaking. I’m almost dying from your shaking.” Despite the severe pain in his back, Lu Yiming still gritted his teeth and forced an ugly smile. “What time is it!” Su Rongrong cried, yes, she really cried this time. If it weren’t for Lu Yiming just now, Su Rongrong couldn’t imagine what she would face. Soon, the ambulance arrived at the scene. Lu Yiming was carried into an ambulance and sent to the nearest hospital. The first thing Zhuang Sheng did when he got the news was to smash his favorite teapot. He immediately asked the servants to prepare the car and rushed to the hospital, cursing all the way. “The fat guy is looking for death!” Zhuang Sheng’s face turned pale. Not only was he seeking death, but he was also bringing trouble to himself. I just said that I would solve it, but in the blink of an eye, Lu Sheng was attacked. If this matter is not handled properly, I am afraid… When I rushed to the hospital, I saw Su Rongrong still crying at the door of the emergency room. “Ms. Su, don’t worry, I will find the murderer and give you an explanation for this matter.” “No need.” After holding it in for a long time, Su Rongrong finally said these words. After hearing these words, Zhuang Sheng stood there in a daze for a while. I thought to myself that this was not good. The calmer Miss Su was, the more disastrous the consequences would be. Su Rongrong took out her cell phone expressionlessly and made a call. “Dad, I was bullied…” Just a simple sentence caused great chaos in Hong Kong. In the following hour, Zhuang Sheng witnessed the horror of the century old family. So what even if it’s Hong Kong? The Su family, with its full strength mobilized, let Zhuang Sheng see what thunderous wrath is. 20 minutes later, consulate staff arrived at the hospital. Along with them came a group of military officers. There is a bulge around the waist, even a fool would know what it is. But none of the police officers present dared to step forward to ask. The Chief Superintendent of the Hong Kong Police Force was present in person. He is the most powerful figure in the police force besides the Commissioner of Police. Even this person was alarmed. Half an hour later, a number of suspicious people appeared at the hospital entrance. The police immediately stepped forward to question him and finally confirmed the other party’s identity, who turned out to be the notorious “Big Circle Boy”. However, the other party’s purpose this time was to protect someone in the emergency room. Multiple forces were mobilized. Just for one person. Zhuang Sheng was completely dumbfounded. Who could have thought that the Su family’s reaction would be so strong. In fact, this matter has been upgraded to a diplomatic incident. The Hong Kong government soon paid attention to this matter. A special task force was also dispatched. Overnight, the venues of various local associations were cleared out at the same time. The biggest anti gang storm in Hong Kong’s history broke out suddenly without any warning. Those community leaders were all dumbfounded. He didn’t even know what was happening because all his places were raided by the police. Three hours after the incident, the Chinese government suddenly spoke out, severely condemning the violence in Hong Kong, especially the violence against Chinese tourists, and stated that China would never allow the existence of various associations in Hong Kong. One stone can cause a thousand ripples. As for the instigator of all this, the eldest daughter of the Su family, she was still guarding the door of the emergency room. Su Rongrong’s white dress was stained with Lu Yiming’s blood. Although Lu Yiming gave Su Rongrong a comforting smile before being sent to the emergency room. “Ms. Su, we will protect Mr. Lu. You should go back and rest. Your father is very worried about you.” “I want to stay here.” “That’s… okay.” Seeing that he couldn’t persuade Su Rongrong, he had no choice but to accompany her. Fortunately, the doctor finally came out. “Doctor, how is Lu Yiming?” Su Rongrong, who had been unresponsive, immediately stepped forward and grabbed the doctor’s arm the moment she saw the doctor. “Don’t worry, there is no danger to his life. The patient has multiple soft tissue injuries, including a wound on his back. It’s not deep. It should be the leather jacket that cushioned the wound. We have already provided emergency treatment.” To be honest, Lu Yiming’s injuries were not serious. After all, the security of the Peninsula Hotel responded quickly. It only took a few minutes in total. “It’s okay, really okay? But he lost so much blood.” Su Rongrong’s hands and body were covered with Lu Yiming’s blood. For Su Rongrong, who had been well protected since childhood, the previous scene continued to irritate her nerves. “Don’t worry, Miss Su. Mr. Lu is fine. It’s just that the wound is quite large and he can’t be fully anesthetized.” Local anesthetics cannot guarantee pain relief during stitches. However, contrary to the doctor’s expectations, Mr. Lu was very manly and did not say a word throughout the whole process. Unlike some men, who would scream and shout at the slightest pain. It can be seen that Mr. Lu is very patient. “Can I go see him?” “sure.” Su Rongrong was very confused and didn’t know how to face Lu Yiming. After all, the relationship between the two was not harmonious. But at the most critical moment, it was Lu Yiming who saved himself regardless of the danger. “Why is there so much noise outside?” “I…I told my father.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, no wonder. Just because of Su Yunchang’s doting on Su Rongrong, I’m afraid the whole of Hong Kong is in chaos now. “Call your father.” “What?” “Keep it low key.” “But…” Su Rongrong didn’t know why Lu Yiming did this. “Listen to me, this is not the right time to make a big fuss.” Lu Yiming was very clear headed. If a big fuss were to be made during this period, both sides would suffer. The Su family’s revenge will cause dissatisfaction among the upper class. What needs to be considered is to assess the situation. “You call, I’ll talk to your father.” Ten minutes later. “Boss Su, don’t worry, I can handle this matter. The pressure you put on me is enough. Please trust me.” “Understood.” President Su hesitated for a moment and finally chose to believe Lu Yiming. After all, my daughter made it very clear on the phone before. If it weren’t for Lu Yiming, my daughter would have… To be honest, Su Yunchang was quite grateful to Lu Yiming at this time. Since Lu Yiming is confident that he can solve it, then I will let it go this time. It’s good to give young people a chance, after all, they need to grow up. Of course, if there are still people who don’t know how to appreciate it. Su Yunchang would do anything for his daughter. The ‘muscles’ just displayed have already shocked everyone. Chapter 96 Easing Relations “Bang!” A bottle of XO was smashed to pieces. In the KVT box, the leader of the society had a furious look on his face. In just one hour, all the places under his control were taken care of. Many younger brothers were given extra care. The losses incurred today alone are difficult to estimate. Not only this person, but the leaders of several other societies also had rather ugly expressions on their faces. “How many times have I told you to go and scare someone? Who told you to do it?” His face was extremely ugly. There is no longer the indignation and determination to teach the mainlanders a lesson that he had at the beginning. No one expected that this time they would hit a wall. “Boss, it wasn’t us. Fatty specifically told us to see blood.” “Bullshit, who is your boss?” The person in charge was almost mad at the younger brother’s defense. It’s the fat guy again. He even ordered his younger brothers around! “Where’s the fat guy?” “this…” As soon as the fat man saw that something was wrong, he ran away. The fat man was very smart and knew that he had caused big trouble this time. Now, let alone Zhuang Sheng, even those who are in charge want to kill him. You’d be a fool not to run at this time. However, it is obviously impossible to escape from the hands of these people in charge. The fat man who was trying to sneak out of Hong Kong eventually fell into Zhuang Sheng’s hands. As for the ordinary people of Hong Kong, they naturally don’t feel much. They go to work and school as usual. And now in the hospital. “The doctor said it’s best not to move.” “It’s all right.” Lu Yiming looked amused, as if he were a protected animal. Turning over was terrifying to Su Rongrong. “why are you laughing?” “I just didn’t expect that our Miss Su would take care of others. If I had known this, shouldn’t I have been a hero and saved the beauty a long time ago?” “Pooh.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Even in this state, you still want to tease me? But Lu Yiming’s current appearance is indeed quite intimidating. His body was wrapped in bandages all over, and Su Rongrong was really scared when she first saw him. According to the doctor, the wound wasn’t actually deep, but it was a bit large in size. Since it needed to be sutured, he might as well just bandage it up. But in Su Rongrong’s eyes, it was a completely different scene. “Or, let’s write off our relationship.” “That’s wishful thinking, let’s keep things one thing at a time.” “Can you please not be so fussy?” “Lu Yiming!” I don’t know why, but Lu Yiming just wanted to tease Su Rongrong. Especially now like this. Unexpectedly, after living again, I could see another unknown side of Su Rongrong. What a strong business woman, what a beauty. Su Rongrong now looks like the girl next door. I will be afraid just the same, I will cry just the same, I will be moved just the same, just the same… “I will give you an explanation about that matter.” Normally, if Lu Yiming dared to mention that matter, Su Rongrong would definitely grit her teeth, but this time, Su Rongrong was unexpectedly silent. Perhaps, it was really as Lu Yiming said, this time of being a hero saving the beauty really changed Su Rongrong’s opinion of Lu Yiming. Especially at this moment when Lu Yiming was risking his life to protect himself. Su Rongrong’s heartstrings were plucked heavily. Maybe, maybe I really misunderstood Lu Yiming? Once such an idea arises, it will quickly take root and sprout. Generate other ideas. However, all these will change slowly over time. “What are you doing? The doctor told you to lie down and not move.” Seeing Lu Yiming propping up half of his body, Su Rongrong immediately stepped forward to stop him. “I’m thirsty.” “Wait.” The goddess of Soochow University actually poured the water herself. But I just want to ask, how should a patient who is lying prone drink water? “How about a straw?” “It’s not here. I’ll go out and buy some.” “Forget it, don’t work so hard. We don’t know what it’s like outside now.” The relevant departments evacuated some personnel. However, some elites were left behind to protect the safety of Su Rongrong and Lu Yiming. Just as Lu Yiming thought, the top leaders in the country had some opinions about the Su family’s actions. After all, this time, the Su family stretched their hands too far. It may even destroy the original deployment. Fortunately, the Su family finally restrained themselves. This is all thanks to Lu Yiming. Su Yunchang was so angry for his daughter, and this reason is also valid. Since there hasn’t been any major disturbance, the Hong Kong government should be responsible for everything. I guess the other party also knows what to do. Lu Yiming tried hard, but it was too difficult to drink water while lying down, and he failed after several attempts. In the end, Su Rongrong found a spoon and fed Lu Yiming mouthful by mouthful. Tsk tsk, don’t even think about this kind of treatment in your previous life. Just at this moment, the door of the ward was pushed open. “Um, am I disturbing you two?” Zhuang Sheng said that he definitely did not do it on purpose. Su Rongrong immediately took back the spoon in her hand. This shy look is really cute. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I actually didn’t drink much. It really came at the wrong time. “You guys chat, I’m going to go out for some fresh air.” The air was filled with awkwardness and Su Rongrong couldn’t wait to leave. As someone who has experienced this, Zhuang Sheng said that Lu Yiming’s methods were very clever. “Zhuang Sheng, it seems you have brought good news.” Lu Yiming smiled and asked Zhuang Sheng to sit down. This matter does require an explanation. Of course, the outcome depends on the attitudes of these people. “Lu Sheng, this is the sincerity of the leaders of the three societies.” A check for 2 million. This is an explanation for this matter. “I have asked, and it is true that my subordinates acted on their own initiative. Of course, they have been subject to the gang rules. If Lu Sheng is still dissatisfied, you can put forward your own request, and I will definitely convey it to you.” “What do you think, Zhuang Sheng?” “My suggestion is over now. Of course, I will give you a satisfactory explanation as well, Fatty.” Indeed, the warning given by the Su family was very effective. The three associations have realized the seriousness of the matter and have chosen to admit their mistakes. In Zhuang Sheng’s opinion, if Lu Yiming wants to continue to develop in Hong Kong, he should show mercy to others. After all, the strength of the three associations cannot be underestimated. There is no need to fight to the death unless it is absolutely necessary, and people will appreciate it. “Tell them I took it.” “good.” While Zhuang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, he looked at Lu Yiming with even higher regard. The young man in front of me is not ordinary. Seeing things clearly, one can also make the best judgement in this situation. There is no limit to future achievements. He even wanted to become close friends with Lu Yiming. There is no need to make a big deal about this matter. This is the best way. “Mr. Zhuang, about the advertisement.” “Don’t worry, Lu Sheng. I have hired a famous director. TVB will be responsible for the losses this time.” Zhuang Sheng expressed his attitude, and everyone was happy. Chapter 97: Just Because I’m at the Top “Are you really letting it go just like that?” Su Rongrong took the cup from Lu Yiming’s hand, her face still showing a hint of dissatisfaction. “What can we do? You still have to discuss the project with Zhuang Sheng. If we offend everyone, we can forget about setting foot in Hong Kong.” On the contrary, Lu Yiming was more open minded. This kindness is not so easy to repay. The three major societies owed Zhuang Sheng a favor. Given Zhuang Sheng’s cunningness, he would naturally not stop until he had skinned them alive. This was giving face to Zhuang Sheng. From now on in Hong Kong, as long as Zhuang Sheng could handle something, it would no longer be difficult for either Lu Yiming or Su Rongrong. Of course, the most important reason was that Su Rongrong was not hurt. If Su Rongrong was injured, God knows how crazy Lu Yiming would go. “Lu Yiming, you’re not worried about me, are you? Actually, you don’t need to worry about this.” Su Rongrong was slightly touched. If it’s really for my own sake, how should I face Lu Yiming in the future? Especially Lu Yiming’s scorching eyes, which almost melted me. “You’re overthinking it. Hong Kong is a financial center after all.” “You… really gave them a bargain.” Su Rongrong breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Lu Yiming’s answer. But why do I feel a little lost? Su Rongrong: No, Su Rongrong, what are you thinking about? Perhaps the relationship between the two sides changed too suddenly. Now every time I see Lu Yiming, I always feel a little uncomfortable. It’s pretty good now, at least I can adjust my mindset. Seeing Su Rongrong like this, Lu Yiming felt relieved. Based on my understanding of Su Rongrong, if she feels too much pressure, she will probably avoid me from now on. This is definitely not what Lu Yiming wants to see. Only when water drops wear away the stone can water flow smoothly. What Lu Yiming needs to do is to integrate into Su Rongrong’s life. One day, when Su Rongrong realizes what is happening, she will find that she can no longer live without herself. On the third day of hospitalization, Lu Yiming was discharged smoothly. The new ads and placements are done and the samples are excellent. In order to express his apology, Zhuang Sheng even released the movie ahead of schedule. The scene where the protagonist waves at people with a cell phone has become a classic. Originally, Su Rongrong and Lu Yiming should have gone back, but Zhuang Sheng also wanted to seize this rare opportunity, so he invited Su Rongrong to participate in the anniversary celebration of TVB. During the event, bigwigs from all walks of life in Hong Kong will be present. For Su Rongrong, this is a great opportunity. For Gaoyuan Capital, this opportunity cannot be missed. This is a great platform to showcase yourself. “Actually, you can go back first. Don’t worry, the company has already sent my assistant over.” Gaoyuan Capital also attached great importance to this. Upon receiving the news, Mr. Zhang immediately notified Su Rongrong’s team to set off. This is crucial for Gaoyuan Capital to expand into Hong Kong. What’s more, these bigwigs in Hong Kong are also very interested in Su Rongrong, this gifted girl. After all, Su Rongrong’s phone call shook the whole of Hong Kong. I haven’t seen such a grand scene for almost 10 years. For these bigwigs, what they need is naturally a stable Hong Kong. Only stability can attract more international capital. However, the turmoil caused this time almost destroyed the credibility that was built with great difficulty. Fortunately, Miss Su knew how to stop in time. This naturally makes the big guys more interested. He is able to control his movements with ease. Wow, it is just right. Is there a master behind the scenes directing him, or is he really in control of the overall situation? It’s been a long time since there have been any ‘newcomers’ joining Hong Kong. Of course, the “newcomers” mentioned by these big guys are not at a level that ordinary businessmen can imagine. “Congratulations.” “What?” “Zhuang Sheng’s activity this time is not simple.” “I know, several big bosses are coming.” “Not only these, the Li family, the Wang family, the Sun family, and the Ouyang family will all have agents present.” The four major families in Hong Kong are the ones who truly stand at the top of the pyramid. The dragon is hard to find, and even if the governor wants to meet it, he needs to make an appointment. These four are the ones who control Hong Kong’s greatest resources. It can even be said that Hong Kong can no longer accommodate the development of these four people. Even in Europe and the United States, there are industries under the four people. “It’s a bit nervous indeed.” Even a century old business family like the Su family cannot underestimate these four people. “Once you get on their train, you can rise quickly.” “You seem very envious.” “As a wealthy family, I’m naturally envious.” More than just wealthy families, these four are comparable to the top chaebols in South Korea. Even any of their opinions can change the original rules of the market. “There’s a saying that goes, if you stand in the wind, even a pig can fly. But for them, they are the creators of the wind, and the pig is just constantly strengthening their strength.” This is what a chaebol really is. Those well known wealthy people in later generations were at best just “working” for them. This is capital. The birth of a wealthy person is not as easy as it seems. “This metaphor is quite interesting. So, I don’t want to be the one standing at the wind’s edge. I want to create my own wind field.” Standing in the presidential suite on the highest floor of the Peninsula Hotel. Here, you can have a panoramic view of the entire Hong Kong Peninsula. Standing in front of the floor to ceiling window, I feel like everything is at my feet. “I seem to have underestimated your ambition.” Lu Yiming came to Su Rongrong with a glass of red wine. “The doctor has warned you not to drink alcohol during this period.” Unexpectedly, Su Rongrong took the cup from Lu Yiming’s hand. In the past, this scene would never have happened. But now, everything seems to be as it should be. “Lu Yiming, I have always wanted to prove myself.” “I know.” Children from large families often have many things that are beyond their control. Su Rongrong is already very lucky because she has a father who cares about her very much. Su Yunchang is willing to give everything for his daughter. But what came with it was the pressure on Su Rongrong. Living forever under the protection of her father is not what Su Rongrong wants. She wanted to prove herself more. But in the previous life, because of Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong died before she even set sail. Perhaps this is why Su Rongrong hates Lu Yiming so much. In her previous life, Su Rongrong was also a business queen. However, the rise did not come until twenty years later. It was not until Su Rongrong let go of her inner demons that she regained her confidence. “What are you thinking about?” Su Rongrong tilted her head curiously. It was rare to see Lu Yiming thinking so seriously. Usually in front of me, he always looks nonchalant. No wonder people say that men who are serious are the most attractive. Su Rongrong didn’t believe this sentence before. But at this moment, after seeing the serious Lu Yiming. Only then did I slowly understand the meaning of this sentence. Chapter 98 Going to Sea I originally planned to wait until after the radio station’s anniversary celebration on Friday before going back. However, they did not expect that the next day, Zhuang Sheng invited Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong to go out to sea. The favorite leisure and entertainment activity of Hong Kong’s wealthy people is going out to sea. For this reason, almost every wealthy person owns his or her own yacht. Zhuang Sheng is naturally no exception. Although Zhuang Sheng’s yacht is not the most luxurious, he has invested a lot in it. “Can you really go to sea?” What Su Rongrong was most worried about was Lu Yiming’s injury. Even people without medical knowledge know that wounds should not come into contact with water, let alone sea water. “It’s okay, just be careful.” Lu Yiming is in good health and has no scars. As long as he takes good care of himself, recovery is only a matter of time. Besides, the person who sutured Lu Yiming was the most famous plastic surgeon in Hong Kong. This is an expert specially invited by the hospital after learning about Lu Yiming’s identity. The most advanced cosmetic sutures currently on the market are used, the kind that are self absorbable. The most crucial point. Lu Yiming knew that Su Rongrong would not refuse Zhuang Sheng’s invitation. Besides, it’s time to go out to sea. Can Lu Yiming be at ease letting Su Rongrong go alone? What a joke! Lu Yiming said that he didn’t have such a big heart. The agreed time has arrived. A Rolls Royce drove into Victoria Harbour. Top wealthy people can often be seen here. Of course, what Victoria Harbour has the most is luxury cars and beautiful women. Even if you pay close attention, you will find that those tightly wrapped female artists are old acquaintances here. This is also one of the paparazzi’s favorite places. Gossip has always been the most popular topic among the people. Just like at this moment, Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong had just got off the car, and someone not far away had already pointed the camera at the two of them. There’s nothing we can do about it, these two are just too good looking. The paparazzi mistook these two for newcomers in the entertainment industry. Although he is not very famous now, he will definitely become a big hit once his works are released. The paparazzi have already thought of this week’s headlines. “The godfather of the entertainment industry, Zhuang Sheng, privately met with a super hot newcomer. Threesome? Or it was a gathering of both men and women!” Once such a title comes out, it will definitely cause a big explosion. No need to worry about sales. But at this moment, a dark shadow appeared in front of his camera. The next moment, the paparazzi was surrounded by four big men. this… The paparazzi looked around blankly. This pitiful and helpless look constantly asks for help from the crowd. But these four big men in black suits look like they are not someone you want to mess with. “What are you doing? Hong Kong has freedom of the press. I’m a reporter. You can’t…ah…” Two of the men in black attacked the reporter from both sides and lifted him up like a chicken. The scene at this moment was really funny. The paparazzi showed the weakness and helplessness vividly. In the back alley on the corner of the street, professional equipment worth more than 10,000 yuan was smashed to pieces. The paparazzi’s heart is bleeding. Not only the equipment, but also the headlines that he had booked also disappeared. “Open your eyes.” “You guys, I’m going to call the police. Even if it’s Zhuang Sheng, you can’t ignore the law. Hong Kong is a society ruled by law.” “You can try and see if the police will do anything about it.” The big man had a grim smile on his face. You know, the senior officials of the Hong Kong police force are already aware of these two guests from the mainland. In order to prevent possible accidents from happening again, the Hong Kong police even sent a team to provide secret protection. At this time, the team members were not far away and witnessed this scene. They did not express any opinions on this, which means they tacitly approved it. Call the police? Of course, Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong were unaware of all this. After meeting Zhuang Sheng, the two chatted for a few words and then boarded Zhuang Sheng’s yacht together. “It’s pretty good.” Led by Zhuang Sheng, Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong took a tour. It’s no wonder that yachts are top notch social tools. Although Zhuang Sheng’s yacht is not big, it has all the facilities. It is divided into three layers: upper, middle and lower. There are also three separate lounges and a multi purpose living room. Although the decoration is not luxurious, the details highlight the owner’s taste. “If Lu Sheng likes it, you can get one. I have a good relationship with the shipping king and I will give you the highest discount.” Zhuang Sheng replied with a smile. Today, all the bigwigs in Hong Kong know about Su Rongrong, this gifted girl from heaven. But many people don’t know that the person next to Su Rongrong is also a fierce dragon. As the leader of private enterprises in the mainland, the strength of Lu Group should not be underestimated. What’s more, the Lu Group is now also accelerating its transformation. It involves many fields such as real estate, and one can tell at a glance that it is preparing for diversified development. Lu Yiming naturally has such capital and strength. A yacht is just a bigger toy. “Once the Huangpu River is well managed, I can consider it.” Lu Yiming replied with a smile. “Let’s take a break first. We won’t go too far this time.” Zhuang Sheng’s words seemed to imply something, but Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong couldn’t tell what it was for a moment. Originally, Zhuang Sheng wanted to bring his own female artists along. However, considering that Su Rongrong was present, he finally gave up this tempting idea. For rich people, female artists without background have indeed become playthings of some people, just as the outside world says. It’s a pity that Lu Yiming is not interested in this. As for Su Rongrong, she was even more uncomfortable with this. So, on this trip, apart from the staff and two waiters, only Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong were left. After serving the fruit plate and snacks, the three of them started chatting in the cabin. It mainly consists of the casual chat between Zhuang Sheng and Su Rongrong. After all, both of them are eager to cooperate with each other. Zhuang Sheng needs to rely on Su Rongrong to open up the mainland market. As for Su Rongrong, she also wants to invest in Zhuang Sheng’s projects in the mainland. Moreover, the two have already found some possibilities for cooperation. In Lu Yiming’s opinion, both Su Rongrong and Zhuang Sheng had good vision. The selected projects will indeed have considerable advantages in the next decade or so. If you start planning now, you will definitely succeed in the future. “Lu Sheng, don’t just listen, express your opinion?” Zhuang Sheng naturally would not ignore Lu Yiming because of this. As a businessman, being comprehensive is what he excels at. “I won’t interrupt. I don’t pay much attention to the content just now, but the feasibility does exist. Of course, this is a cooperation between Zhuang Sheng and Rongrong, and there is no need for a third party to intervene.” In Lu Yiming’s opinion, the project is indeed very good. But the only flaw is that the payback period is too long, which does not fit Lu Yiming’s current positioning. What Lu Yiming needs to do is to accumulate enough capital in a short period of time. The most scarce thing in future games is money. “Haha, it seems that Lu Sheng doesn’t think highly of these projects.” Zhuang Sheng also laughed. Of course, I felt a lot more relaxed. After all, when there is no shortage of funds, the fewer people involved, the greater the return. Zhuang Sheng understood this very well. Chapter 99 A Good Show “Boss, we’re here.” Half an hour later, we arrived at the designated sea area. Zhuang Sheng nodded, indicating that he understood. “Zhuang Sheng, we are already here, it’s time to make our purpose for today known to everyone.” Lu Yiming said with a smile that he absolutely did not believe that the big boss would do something without a purpose. “Lu Sheng is still very insightful. Let me take you to see someone.” Zhuang Sheng stood up with a smile. Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong looked at each other and followed Zhuang Sheng with some curiosity. Stern. “Fill it up.” Fish? This word is really used in a way that… Two staff members walked to the stern. Lu Yiming was sharp eyed and saw a rope dragging on the stern. Not long after, the fat director who had been missing for many days was rescued by two staff members onto the deck at the stern of the ship. “vomit…” The moment he was dragged up, the fat man kept retching. He spit out mouthfuls of sea water, and the sight of him doing so was inexplicably funny. “Zhuang Sheng, what is this?” Lu Yiming frowned slightly. He didn’t expect that this was the “surprise” that Zhuang Sheng prepared for him. As for Su Rongrong who was standing aside, she leaned closer behind Lu Yiming. It was obvious that Su Rongrong could not understand such a scene. “Lu Sheng, I said I would give you an explanation. After the accident, Fatty wanted to sneak across the border to seek refuge, but my people found him in advance.” The fat man at this moment no longer had the arrogance he had in the past. He curled up on the deck, a look of fear on his face, his skin turning pale from being soaked in sea water. “Yes… I’m sorry, please forgive me, forgive me this time.” The fat man knew that Zhuang Sheng was really angry this time. I never expected that the other party was so powerful. I was locked in a small dark room for the past two days and was terrified. At this time, no one among the friends I had made dared to speak for me. And those who are in charge of the social organizations would rather die than wait for me. The trouble we caused this time was really huge. The fat man was really scared. “Drag him all the way here? Aren’t you afraid that he will drown?” This method is really cruel. Lu Yiming knew how Zhuang Sheng started his career. However, in today’s society ruled by law, such means are still somewhat unacceptable. “Don’t worry, I’m wearing a life jacket.” Of course, Zhuang Sheng is not stupid. If the fat man really died, he would not be able to escape responsibility. Besides, this time, Zhuang Sheng just wanted to vent Lu Yiming’s anger, he didn’t really want to kill the fat man. Otherwise, the best way to deal with it is to sink the fat man into the sea as soon as possible after catching him. “Lu Sheng, you know the fat man’s father. He and I are old acquaintances. I want to ask for face here. I hope that Lu Sheng can let him go for my sake.” In order to let Lu Yiming vent his anger, the more miserable the fat man is, the better. This look now makes it easier to arouse sympathy. “Zhuang Sheng, I’m just a businessman.” “Haha, Lu Sheng is right.” As a businessman, peace is the most important thing. Fighting and killing is naturally not within Lu Yiming’s consideration. Although the fat man’s actions had indeed exceeded Lu Yiming’s bottom line, Lu Yiming would never do anything to kill the fat man. “Thank you Mr. Lu, thank you Mr. Zhuang, and thank you Miss Su for giving me a chance.” The more arrogant they were before, the more embarrassed they are now. What? Revenge?! Come on, fat guys do have some status in the film industry. But this time, the fat man was so scared that he lost his courage. If it weren’t for my father, I’m afraid I wouldn’t even see the sun tomorrow. As for revenge, the fat man didn’t even dare to think about it. What’s more, the fat guy was in a terrible situation this time, and the people in the society didn’t know how to solve it. I’m afraid that in the next few years, fat people will have a miserable life. “Ms. Su, although Lu Sheng will not pursue the matter, you are also a victim. It is up to you to decide whether to let him go or not.” At this moment, Zhuang Sheng looked at Su Rongrong again. However, Su Rongrong’s eyes never looked towards the stern. “Lu Yiming’s meaning is what I mean.” Su Rongrong had never seen such a scene before. Su Yunchang has always protected Su Rongrong very well. “Okay, in that case, let’s end this account here.” Zhuang Sheng nodded and waved to the people below. Soon, a speedboat came and transferred the fat man onto the speedboat. “You two, please don’t let this matter disturb your interest in going out to sea.” Zhuang Sheng said with a smile, and invited Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong back to the cabin again. “But do you think my methods are a bit too cruel?” Zhuang Sheng raised his wine glass and clinked it with Lu Yiming. “He can’t drink.” “Haha, sorry, I forgot.” In this situation, you can still care about whether Lu Yiming should drink. It seems that the relationship between these two is quite strange. “Zhuang Sheng, we naturally know something about Hong Kong’s history. Although we do look down on such tactics, we also understand the complexity of Hong Kong. In fact, this time, Zhuang Sheng just wanted to protect Fatty, so he put on this show for us.” “It still couldn’t escape Lu Sheng’s eyes. Yes, I did want to save the fat guy. Of course, he really went too far this time, so I have to teach him a lesson.” Zhuang Sheng did not deny it. This matter itself could not be hidden from Lu Yiming. However, Zhuang Sheng also had his reasons for doing so. “We all understand this, but I still want to remind you that after 1997, the rules will change.” “That’s why I want to work with Miss Su.” Zhuang Sheng nodded, naturally understanding what Lu Yiming meant. Many things will not be allowed after 1997. The rules have changed. If it remains the same as before, then I’m sorry, the government will not allow anyone to violate the law. No matter how big your business is. This is also what the government has been promoting. “Ms. Su, from now on, I will be a well behaved businessman.” Zhuang Sheng promised solemnly. Since he has already been cleaned up, Zhuang Sheng will certainly not make the same mistake again. “understand.” Su Rongrong sighed, since it was a path she had chosen. Naturally, you will see different scenery on this road. This scene today had a profound impact on Su Rongrong. Of course, there are countless intrigues in the business world. If you want to reach the top, you will naturally experience more. Su Rongrong quickly adjusted her mentality. In the future, I will have more partners, and the most important thing is how to ensure my original intention. “We’ll go fishing later. This area has the most groupers and they taste the most delicious.” Seeing that the atmosphere had finally become relaxed, Zhuang Sheng made a suggestion. Of course, Zhuang Sheng was also happy to see this scene today. If Lu Yiming or Su Rongrong insists on doing so, Zhuang Sheng should also think carefully about whether he should cooperate with them. After all, personality is the hardest thing to change. Su Rongrong and Lu Yiming managed to get through this situation smoothly. PS: I have added more content. If you like it, please give me a five star rating. Chapter 100 Jade like Skin [Ding, the sin value is updated. 】 [Current number of crimes: 993232.] The system has not appeared for a long time. Lu Yiming almost forgot the existence of the system. However, I didn’t expect that after letting the fat man go, the system suddenly spoke. Come to think of it, if it were me in my previous life, how could I have let the fat guy off so easily? Perhaps, giving the fat man a life jacket and throwing him into the sea to fend for himself was the choice Lu Yiming made in his previous life. As for whether the fat man can survive, it depends on God’s will. Lu Yiming has indeed changed a lot now. 【System rewards are being distributed…】 The main feature of this system is the surprise effect. Even Lu Yiming couldn’t figure out the system’s routine. [Reward: Dance Expertise] Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… That’s too much. My goal is to be the president and a big shot in the business world. You gave yourself a dance specialty? Lu Yiming looked helpless. As expected, the system rewards are completely useless. Lu Yiming shook his head and returned to reality. Only he and Su Rongrong were left in the cabin. At this time, Su Rongrong was sitting in her seat in a daze. Zhuang Sheng has already made an invitation. There is fun in fishing, and the catch you catch yourself tastes delicious too. What’s more, for a successful boss like Zhuang Sheng, there are very few things that can arouse his interest in normal times. Su Rongrong has also changed into her own swimsuit. only… “Why don’t you go up? Don’t you like fishing? Or are you scared?” Zhuang Sheng really likes fishing. Look, he has already gone to the deck impatiently. As for Su Rongrong, she didn’t move for a long time. “You ask me so many questions at once, how should I answer you?” “Care about you and stop being like a hedgehog.” “Lu Yiming, our relationship hasn’t reached this point yet.” “What is our relationship?” Su Rongrong rolled her eyes at the smug expression. “Of course, of course… Lu Yiming, we are not even ordinary friends!” Su Rongrong’s best skill is being tough. It was obvious that their relationship had returned to normal, and she was clearly still concerned about whether Lu Yiming could drink. But now we have become familiar strangers again. Sure enough, women’s mouths are deceiving. “Is it because you feel bad?” “Not really. I really couldn’t accept it at first.” Even if the fat man is guilty, he should be severely punished by the law, not like this. “Hong Kong’s laws can’t apply to fat people. There’s no evidence.” The society will handle it internally, but it is absolutely impossible for them to cooperate with the police. Therefore, the fat man will most likely not be convicted. Under such circumstances, it is understandable that Zhuang Sheng performed this act in order to calm the two people down. “You don’t need me to tell you. I’ve already figured it out.” “Now that you have figured it out, why are you still sitting here? Fishing is one of the favorite ways for bosses in Hong Kong to relax. If you want to develop in Hong Kong in the future, this step is essential.” “I know, but it’s too sunny.” It’s not that Su Rongrong is conservative, but if she really wants to walk back and forth on the yacht and the deck in a bikini like in the TV dramas, Su Rongrong really can’t do it. The swimsuit Su Rongrong is wearing now is the most conservative one piece type. At most, she would just show off her long legs, and this was Su Rongrong’s bottom line. However, sun protection is a big problem. Girls, of course, don’t want to get tanned. The sun is so strong today. If I really go up there for an hour, won’t I get several degrees tanned? “Where’s the sunscreen?” “Yes.” “Yes.” Women are indeed pretentious, and even Su Rongrong is no exception to this. “Lu Yiming, are you annoying?” this… Are you suddenly angry? Lu Yiming was confused, but when he saw Su Rongrong turning around and preparing to go to the deck, Lu Yiming instantly realized the problem. Although Su Rongrong’s swimsuit is conservative, her back is still exposed to the air. Su Rongrong was able to apply it on her thighs and arms, but as for her back, it was a bit difficult because of her arm span. “etc.” “What are you going to do now?” Su Rongrong turned around and asked unhappily, but unexpectedly, she was dragged back to the cabin by Lu Yiming. “Where’s the sunscreen?” “You are a grown man, why are you being so pretentious?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Su Rongrong took out a bottle of sunscreen from her bag and threw it to Lu Yiming. A grown man wearing sunscreen is just effeminate. As expected, the dandy pays the most attention to his appearance. “Lu Yiming, what are you doing!” Su Rongrong was about to turn around and leave when Lu Yiming grabbed her again. “Come with me.” “don’t want!” Su Rongrong wanted to struggle, but what, this bastard, could it be that he is getting horny again? If I had known this would happen, I shouldn’t have put on a swimsuit. Lu Yiming’s eyes were too hot when he looked at her just now, and Su Rongrong obviously felt uncomfortable. “I have a wound on my back.” Just when Su Rongrong was about to break free, Lu Yiming’s words made Su Rongrong stop struggling temporarily. Yes, Lu Yiming had an injury on his back, and this injury was also for the purpose of protecting himself… But… Before Su Rongrong could react, Lu Yiming pulled her into the room. A double bed appeared before my eyes. “Lu Yiming, even if you are injured, this is not a reason for you to threaten me. If you are, if…” Su Rongrong was so anxious that she couldn’t speak clearly. How could I have forgotten to be on guard and left myself and Lu Yiming some time alone. “Lu Yiming, I’m going to call for help!” Even if it’s embarrassing, it’s better than something happening! “Go ahead and let everyone come and watch me apply sunscreen on you.” “I…uh, what did you just say?” Su Rongrong was about to shout, but the words got stuck in her throat. “You pulled me in here just to help me put on sunscreen?” “What else? I’m no match for you right now.” Lu Yiming always reminds Su Rongrong that he is a “patient”. “Actually, I can do it myself.” “Gibbon?” “Lu Yiming, don’t go too far.” “Hurry up, Zhuang Sheng is still waiting. If you don’t go up now, Zhuang Sheng will really doubt our relationship.” “Bah, Lu Yiming, you bastard, I have nothing with you!” “Lie down.” “What’s so fierce about it!” Su Rongrong grumbled something, but finally succumbed to Lu Yiming’s “tyranny” and lay down on the bed obediently. What Su Rongrong didn’t know was that Lu Yiming, who had been so aggressive just now, was shocked after seeing the jade like skin on her back. I couldn’t help swallowing. Lu Yiming: Doesn’t Su Rongrong know how destructive she is to the opposite sex? Even I am pretending to be calm at this moment. No, it’s better to avoid such things in the future. Lu Yiming has completely ruled out yachts and the like. As for why, perhaps only Lu Yiming knows the answer. PS: Please give a five star rating!!! Chapter 101: Unrivaled Luck “You two are too late. I’ve already caught two.” When Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong appeared on the deck again, Zhuang Sheng had already achieved results. Zhuang Sheng: Young people, I have long seen that there is something wrong with you. You can’t blame Zhuang Sheng for having wild thoughts, it’s just that these two have been pushing each other to their limits. It always gives people a feeling of a pair of bickering lovers. While showing off his achievements, Zhuang Sheng winked at Lu Yiming. If I were 30 years younger, I would definitely pursue such a good girl most vigorously. Young people, you must seize the opportunity. However, this look was caught by Su Rongrong. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I get angry when I think about this. It was clearly Lu Yiming who took the initiative to apply sunscreen on himself. But what is the result? There was no movement for a long time. During this period, Su Rongrong couldn’t help but urge twice. Indeed, Lu Yiming did take action, but he accidentally poured the sunscreen directly on his back. The instant chilly feeling almost gave Su Rongrong goose bumps. “Well, I really didn’t mean it just now.” Su Rongrong’s eyes said it all; Lu Yiming felt really embarrassed. After all, I was a romantic president in my previous life. He has countless concubines. He is also entangled with another school beauty Cheng Xiao. But today such an embarrassing thing happened. It was just a back, but it made me lose consciousness for so long. If this gets out, I’ll be laughed to death. The situation at that time was so speechless. I just stared at Su Rongrong’s jade like back in a daze. And Lu Yiming finally understood something. When facing Su Rongrong, I had no resistance at all. Not to mention her every frown and smile, even her half exposed back was something she could hardly control herself. If this kind of clothing was used in later generations, girls on the street would wear much cooler clothes than this. But I am fine. With just a little effort, so much sunscreen was squeezed out. I just want to ask, how should I apply it? Finally, there was another round of chaos. After finishing all this, Lu Yiming found that his forehead was sweating. Su Rongrong stood up and saw Lu Yiming’s appearance. Although his face was expressionless, he was actually laughing inside. This silly guy, is he still Lu Yiming? “How about I help you apply it?” Su Rongrong regretted what she said too late. I am definitely not teasing Lu Yiming, absolutely not! As for Lu Yiming, he was completely stunned. Is this… true or false? I wasn’t hallucinating, was I? “Lu Yiming, I’m just…” “Thank you for your help!” The movement was so fast that before Su Rongrong could react, Lu Yiming had already laid down on the bed. Su Rongrong only felt a flash of black shadow before her eyes. Shameless guy, the movement was so fast that an afterimage appeared. “Ahem, it is indeed a bit inconvenient. As you know, if you move too much, it will affect the wound on your back.” In order to achieve his dream, Lu Yiming even resorted to self torture. Su Rongrong: Huh? Pulling the wound? I saw that you, Lu Yiming, didn’t feel unwell at all just now. “You wish.” Leaving behind a bell like laughter, Su Rongrong left gracefully. Only Lu Yiming was left with a wry smile on his face. Well, as a man, why should you apply sunscreen? The course of events was not actually complicated, but Zhuang Sheng had obviously misunderstood the matter. “Zhuang Sheng, we…” “It’s okay. I’ve been there too. I understand.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… You know nothing. Sure enough, all men are like this. “Come on, go fishing.” Zhuang Sheng had already instructed the crew on the yacht to prepare fishing gear for the two of them. Fishing is all about patience. Especially sea fishing. When you’re lucky, you’ll catch one after another. But if you are unlucky, you may not get any results for several hours. Anyway, Zhuang Sheng was very satisfied with today’s harvest. But wait until Su Rongrong gets the hang of it. Only then did Zhuang Sheng know what it meant to be the chosen girl. In the first 10 minutes, there was movement on Su Rongrong’s fishing rod. This made Su Rongrong very excited, after all, this was the first fish in her life. With the help of Zhuang Sheng and Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong successfully caught a grouper. Yes, it is the grouper. Zhuang Sheng looked envious. This fish is almost 2 kilograms. I have been sea fishing for half my life, but I have never caught such a big grouper. “You’ll be in for a treat soon. If you make sashimi, it will be absolutely delicious.” The key to cooking grouper sashimi is its original flavor. You only need the simplest operation to taste the most original flavor. “Miss Su is so lucky. I envy her.” Zhuang Sheng praised repeatedly. As for Su Rongrong, she looked at Lu Yiming provocatively. At this moment, there was light in Su Rongrong’s eyes. But the more exciting things are yet to come. Half an hour later, Su Rongrong’s fishing rod moved again. However, the commotion this time was quite big. Su Rongrong was quick witted and grabbed the fishing rod immediately, but the powerful force almost pulled Su Rongrong away. Fortunately, Lu Yiming on the side stepped in and stabilized Su Rongrong. “It’s a big one.” Zhuang Sheng was very excited. With such great power, the thing that took the bait this time must be a big one. “Zhuang Sheng, help me.” Even Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong felt it was very strenuous. The fishing line spun rapidly. Seeing this, Zhuang Sheng immediately stepped forward to help. But even with the strength of two grown men, they still couldn’t control the fishing rod. “Someone come quickly.” Zhuang Sheng quickly called the staff over. It took a full 2 hours of pulling with a fishing rod. I didn’t have the strength to change people immediately. But this thing in the sea seems to have endless energy. “It’s almost time. I’m almost out of energy.” Zhuang Sheng was also very curious about what kind of thing it was that could last so long. After another half an hour, the struggle from the fishing rod became weaker and weaker. Zhuang Sheng knew it was time to stop. He ordered his men to prepare the fishing net. With all the efforts together, the guy who took the bait finally revealed his true face. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Zhuang Sheng: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… When the mystery was revealed, everyone on the boat was dumbfounded. “Zhuang Sheng, are there sharks in this sea?” Su Rongrong was stunned. The thing I just pulled to my limit was actually a shark over one meter long? ! If I had just been dragged into the sea, I’m afraid… “This is the first time I’ve encountered this, too.” Caught a shark while sea fishing? What could be more exciting than this? Anyway, there has never been a precedent of catching a shark in the circle. “Miss Su, you are so lucky.” But shark meat is not tasty, and besides, it is too dangerous. After the staff took photos, they unanimously decided to release it. “Ms. Su, your luck is incredible.” Zhuang Sheng was full of admiration. As for Lu Yiming, he spent the entire afternoon in vain and gained nothing. Chapter 102 Anniversary Red Carpet Wireless Anniversary. This year marks TVB’s 70th anniversary. Although TVB is no longer the only dominant player in Hong Kong today. But Zhuang Sheng is still a media tycoon in the hearts of Hong Kong people, and this cannot be changed. As for this wireless anniversary celebration. Zhuang Sheng made a huge investment just to make up for last year’s decline. All artists signed by TVB were present. The Four Heavenly Kings and familiar stars also came to support. I have to say that Wireless’s foundation is still formidable. Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong were naturally invited as well. This anniversary celebration was even more unique, with a red carpet ceremony. This also gives the people of Hong Kong an opportunity to get in touch with celebrities up close. After all, most ordinary people can only see their favorite stars in front of the TV or on the screen. But in 1995, the Internet was not well developed, so celebrities were still shrouded in mystery. At 4 pm, the red carpet ceremony officially began. Those who entered first were all small time celebrities, serving as a warm up. This includes the crew of “Young and Dangerous”. “Zheng, next year, we will also be the finale.” Although Zheng XX is the protagonist, the movie has just been released. Although the box office was very hot on the first day, Zheng XX’s status was not improved. He was still assigned to the rookie group to warm up the audience in advance. The same treatment was given to the several protagonists standing by. However, this does not affect their vision for the future. I received a notice from the crew yesterday that the second movie is already in planning. The good feedback brought great confidence to the crew. To be honest, the first movie was just a test, and the initial investment was not that large. After all, no one can say whether gangster movies can achieve success. But judging from the current situation, it should be a big explosion. In order to make money, TVB naturally accelerated the launch of the second part. This is understandable. As for whether everyone can become famous for the role in the movie, it depends on their fate. “No, Zheng, what are you holding in your hand?” “The PHS endorsement.” “No way, the sponsor has such a request?” “Not really, but I thought since I’ve accepted the endorsement, this is another good opportunity.” I have to say that Zheng XX is really dedicated. When it was the Young and Dangerous crew’s turn to enter, they received the loudest cheers since the red carpet began. This made these young leading actors feel a little proud. After all, it is a combination of handsome men and beautiful women. It is normal to attract attention. Many people were also curious about the pager in Zheng XX’s hand. Compared with today’s mobile phones, the straight bar shaped PHS is much smaller and more convenient. I don’t know which brand this new product is. The director on the scene even gave Xiao Lingtong a close up shot. It can be regarded as arousing curiosity to the maximum. Starting at 6 o’clock, it’s time for the Best Actress, Best Actor, and big stars to enter. Each of them is a well known star. Everyone gives TVB a lot of face. After all, many superstars came from TVB. Although TVB was once rumored to have withheld wages from artists, one should not forget one’s roots. Regardless of how much one earns at TVB, no one can deny that it was TVB that gave them the opportunity. “It’s quite lively.” The Peninsula Hotel is the perfect place to see the grand red carpet scene. Although Su Rongrong is not interested in so called celebrities, the acting skills of several veteran actors are still deeply rooted in people’s hearts. “How about you say hello to Mr. Zhuang later and ask for his autograph?” “Do I look like a star chaser?” Su Rongrong showed some disdain for Lu Yiming’s words. Although their relationship has become much more normal, Su Rongrong still likes to confront Lu Yiming. This is a personal habit, not a personal grudge. “Of course not, but these autographs are quite valuable. Maybe I can earn back the money for the plane ticket.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Starting at 7 o’clock, it’s time for the big guys to appear. This time, Zhuang Sheng invited many business partners. Among them are the four major families in Hong Kong. These people are the real bosses in Hong Kong. Of course, the early live broadcast ended here. After all, these bigwigs all value their privacy and don’t need to show up in public. The audience at the scene is fine. As for the live broadcast, it will naturally be interrupted. “It’s our turn.” Lu Yiming adjusted his bow tie. Both Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong were dressed up tonight. Lu Yiming’s tuxedo showed off his tall and straight figure. As for what Su Rongrong was wearing, it was a high end fishtail skirt from a top luxury brand, which truly outshone all the other beauties. The moment Su Rongrong put on a skirt and appeared in front of Lu Yiming. Lu Yiming even forgot to breathe. What is incomparably beautiful? Lu Yiming finally understood. “Don’t lose my people later.” “Ha, I should be the one saying this, so don’t be nervous.” “hehe.” At the last moment, the two did not forget to bicker. The two were greeted by a Rolls Royce that the Peninsula Hotel had prepared long ago. For the Peninsula Hotel, this time Lu Yiming was attacked at the hotel entrance. Half of the responsibility lies with hotel management. As the most famous five star hotel in Hong Kong, The Peninsula Hotel naturally has the obligation to protect the safety of every guest. In order to gain the understanding of Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong, the Peninsula Hotel took the initiative to reduce the room rate by half. The Peninsula Hotel is also fully responsible for the two people’s transportation during their stay in Hong Kong. Make up for this accident with a positive attitude. No wonder the Peninsula Hotel can remain standing in Hong Kong. This is the most fundamental reason. At this time, the entertainment reporters on both sides of the red carpet were quite excited. I saw so many superstars tonight. Even today’s red carpet was exciting enough. Not to mention the competition among superstars. The entire red carpet process was like a palace drama, full of intrigue. In order to attract more attention, these stars have put in a lot of effort. In the coming week, there will be more topics surrounding this red carpet event. It can be said that the harvest was fruitful. As for those real big guys who come on the scene. Even if you are a paparazzi, you have to control your attitude. There is no problem taking pictures. But who dares to go against the minds of these big guys, or create some false gossip. Haha, I’m sorry, no one can protect them, no matter it is the newspaper or magazine. Everyone is very clear about this. So, at this time, we just take pictures according to the rules. Write more words of praise when the time comes. At this moment, representatives from the four major families appeared one by one. This also seems to indicate that the red carpet is coming to an end. According to common sense, after the four major families, the real protagonist of the night, Zhuang Sheng, should appear. Chapter 103: The Stars Just when everyone thought the red carpet was about to end. A Rolls Royce appeared in everyone’s sight. After the Rolls Royce stopped, the staff waiting on the side hurried forward and opened the door. A pair of long legs appeared in everyone’s sight. The next moment, a tall figure appeared in front of everyone. who is he?! The reporters at the scene subconsciously pressed the shutter button, and the flash lights merged into a continuous stream. However, there was a look of confusion in the eyes of these reporters. this… What’s going on? No one recognized the identity of the mysterious handsome guy who suddenly appeared. At this moment, the mysterious handsome guy did not step onto the red carpet, but stretched out his right hand towards the car door. Is there anyone else in the car? Just when everyone was guessing. A pair of beautiful and delicate hands rested on the mysterious handsome man’s hands. Then, a woman of incredible beauty appeared before everyone. “hiss…” Such beauty instantly overshadowed all previous actresses. She is the most beautiful among all. This is the real beauty that outshines all others. As soon as Su Rongrong showed up, all the female stars who had appeared before became supporting roles. Its shape is as graceful as a startled swan and as elegant as a swimming dragon. It looks like a light cloud covering the moon, and it flutters like snowflakes blown by the wind. When viewed from afar, it is as bright as the sun rising in the morning glow; when viewed from close up, it is as dazzling as a lotus emerging from the green waves. Her beauty is everlasting, her makeup is unmatched, her hair is piled high in the air, her eyebrows are long and beautiful, her lips are bright red, her teeth are white, her eyes are bright and charming, her cheeks are graceful and charming, and her figure is elegant and graceful, with a calm and relaxed demeanor. As soon as Su Rongrong appeared, everyone’s eyes were on her. Just like a light source, there is no color around. Hong Kong has always been known for its beautiful women. However, at this moment, Su Rongrong was the most dazzling one. “What’s going on?” The combination of handsome men and beautiful women is the most eye catching no matter where they go. However, the way these two appeared seemed too abnormal. At this juncture, the red carpet is about to end, and the finale should be the real big shot. Although these two are handsome, they shouldn’t be… “Could he be an artist that TVB is focusing on nurturing?” These two people are strangers, I have never seen them before. Could it be that he is the new star that TVB will promote in the future? “No way. Even if he is a new talent that is being trained, he can’t be put in this position at this time. He should have come out when the artists enter the stage.” “Yes, the people before them were from the four major families. It is impossible for Zhuang Sheng to make such a low level mistake.” The order of appearance is very important. If any negligence occurs, it may bring shame to the four major families. And what about the several business tycoons who appeared before? Which one of them is not a powerful figure in their respective fields? How could Zhuang Sheng make such a joke? But the problem is that at this time, the people from the four major families did not go far, but instead stopped and watched. However, there was no expression of unhappiness on their faces. Instead, she stayed on the red carpet with a smile on her face, as if waiting for something. “Could he be a descendant of a big family? His temperament is too extraordinary. An ordinary small family cannot cultivate such temperament.” “It’s possible, but we have reported almost all the children of Hong Kong’s noble families.” “this…” Reporters really couldn’t guess the identity of this couple. But even so, I didn’t stop taking pictures. Ever since Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong appeared on the red carpet. The flash never stopped. A series of flashing lights illuminated the entire red carpet. “Can your smile be any more fake?” “Shut up.” Su Rongrong felt like she couldn’t open her eyes. However, due to her training since childhood, Su Rongrong was still able to deal with it appropriately at this moment. A sincere smile reveals eight white and neat teeth. The standard style of a socialite. But Lu Yiming said it was a fake smile. If this wasn’t happening in public, Su Rongrong would have rolled her eyes at Lu Yiming. What the hell, this is called temperament! Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t understand. “Okay, hold on to me, we should go.” “snort.” A typical example of taking advantage of someone. In this situation, Su Rongrong could only cooperate with Lu Yiming obediently. Her delicate hand held Lu Yiming’s arm. Under everyone’s enthusiastic gazes, the two smiled at each other, and the sense of déjà vu of a golden boy and a jade girl was instantly full. Perhaps only Lu Yiming could sense Su Rongrong’s full sense of “disdain”. Well, it was rare for me to behave like a gentleman, but Su Rongrong was still not satisfied. “The people in front are from the four major families in Hong Kong. Although they are only from the side branches, they hold considerable power.” “Know.” “I’ll go say hello later. They should already know our identities.” The people from the four major families were naturally waiting for Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong. After all, the disturbance caused by Su Rongrong not long ago was quite big. The four major families naturally set their sights on these two. Of course, 97 is approaching, and even the four major families have to show enough goodwill. The arrival of these two people is a good opportunity for the four major families to express their attitudes. Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong were whispering to each other. To outsiders, it seemed that they had a very good relationship. “Mr. Lu, Miss Su, nice to meet you.” “When Miss Su showed up, she stole all our attention.” “Hello Lu Sheng…” this… The scene became quiet for a while. The four major families in Hong Kong are well known to everyone in Hong Kong. Emerged 50 years ago. The industry is spread all over Hong Kong. If any one of them said anything, Hong Kong would tremble. Even the Governor of Hong Kong has to fully listen to the opinions of the four major families. And at this moment, the people from the four major families actually behaved like this. Although it cannot be said to be deliberate flattery, it is obvious that this pair of handsome men and beautiful women are being communicated on an equal footing. How could such a discovery not be shocking? Sure enough, God is so unfair. Not only did they have such outstanding looks, they also had a background and status that others could never dream of. High above. “Haha, the party is about to begin.” At this time, Zhuang Sheng also appeared on the red carpet. However, this time no one noticed the arrival of the protagonist. These two are really too eye catching. “Zhuang Sheng.” “Mr. Zhuang is making a big deal this time. It seems that Mr. Zhuang is full of hope for the future of wireless.” “Haha, I’m just guarding my own little piece of land. Okay, there are a lot of wonderful performances prepared for tonight, I guarantee you will be feasting your eyes.” “Then we’ll just have to wait and see.” Zhuang Sheng knew very well that the biggest reason why the four major families were willing to accept the invitation this time was probably because of the young couple in front of him. It’s a pity that in terms of relationship, I have reached an agreement with Su Rongrong and am relatively closer to Lu Sheng. Naturally, he didn’t want to be interfered with by the people from the four major families. For a moment, Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong were like the moon surrounded by stars and became the absolute protagonists of the night. Chapter 104 A Sudden Invitation Tonight’s TVB annual celebration was an eye opener for Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong. It’s not that the performances of these artists were so great, it’s just that the senior management of TVB didn’t take the artists seriously at all. You know, nowadays, Hong Kong and Taiwan stars have a very high status in the mainland. Not to mention superstars, even popular young actors who come to the mainland to develop their careers are given great courtesy and respect. But what did Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong see at the anniversary celebration? The king performed the stone breaking performance with his chest. This is really hitting with a stone hammer. There are also thrilling performances such as riding a motorcycle and leaping, which is a completely risk free performance. Su Rongrong was shocked by these scenes. On the contrary, the bigwigs sitting in the VIP seats were just talking about the future of Hong Kong and discussing ways to make money in the future. As for the artists’ hard work in performing, they had no interest in it at all. “In the eyes of these people, they are not high ranking stars, but just actors.” “Huh, at least respect the hard work of others.” “It’s not a matter of talking about these things. Everyone just has a different understanding.” Lu Yiming could see that Su Rongrong seemed to be feeling uncomfortable. Yes, Su Rongrong is not like me. She has just graduated and has not experienced many situations. It is normal for her to have such thoughts. However, in the eyes of these people, the innate sense of superiority has long been established. Even the female stars on the screen are just toys for them to entertain themselves. There are many wealthy businessmen who have this idea. Although Lu Yiming did not agree with it, he had to admit that it makes sense that it takes two to tango. “Lu Sheng, you and Miss Su seem to be quite interested in the performance.” Zhuang Sheng, who was standing by, held a wine glass and said with a smile. For Zhuang Sheng, artists are his tools to make money. He gives them the opportunity to show themselves, so naturally he needs to get due rewards. Of course, if you can soar to the sky or become a household name. The attitude of those in power towards them will change. But I want to be put on an equal footing. At least in this era, it is impossible. “Indeed, the last few shows were very competitive.” “What they need is an opportunity, a chance to soar to the sky, and for this, they are willing to fight for their lives.” Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong looked at each other in response to this answer. It is impossible to agree with it, but it is also impossible to change it. It’s like at this moment there is a young man who is quite interested in a beautiful woman in the artist team. As for what means would be used, Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong didn’t know. But come to think of it, this currently less well known female artist might really be willing to exchange for an opportunity? Or, if you have good means, marrying into a wealthy family may not be a dream. “Let me introduce you two. This is…” Zhuang Sheng interrupted Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong’s observation and introduced the bigwigs of Hong Kong to them. It can be seen that everyone is very interested in Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong. After all, as businessmen, before making major changes, they all want to test the mainland’s attitude towards them. Su Rongrong and Lu Yiming are the best choices. Most people think the same as Zhuang Sheng. The best option is to explore the scale of the mainland through a small investment. After all, in Hong Kong, there are many businesses that are not legal or compliant. The different standards of both parties can easily lead to unnecessary misunderstandings. Of course, the mainland has also been changing during this period. We have accelerated the pace of reform and opening up, and have always maintained an open and cooperative attitude towards foreign investment. This also makes these big guys feel a lot more at ease. At this time, Lu Yiming had no idea of cooperating with Xiangjiang. After all, these bigwigs in Hong Kong have already formed their own investment principles and fixed thinking. You may not necessarily be interested in new things. What most people value is the real estate and other infrastructure in the mainland. Hoarding and selling land may be the field they hope to enter. This is in conflict with the development of the Lu Group. But Su Rongrong is different. The field of financial investment in which Su Rongrong works is exactly what she wants to do with resources in this area. In particular, the injection of foreign capital will enable Gaoyuan Capital to enrich its capital chain and invest in more projects. Create a win win situation. Therefore, more often than not, it was Su Rongrong who expressed her views on future development. And Lu Yiming was just a listener. One thing must be admitted, Su Rongrong’s vision is indeed unique. Even though it still seems a little immature at this time. But his vision in some areas has exceeded the imagination of too many people. A truly grown up Su Rongrong would definitely be a formidable opponent. However, at this moment, Lu Yiming was actually feeling a little bit of anticipation. At this time, TVB’s anniversary celebration came to a successful conclusion, and the remaining time was the time for these business tycoons to make their debut. “Ms. Su, I wonder if I have the honor to invite you to dance this opening dance?” The young master of the Ouyang family, one of the four major families, came in front of Su Rongrong with confidence. He extended his right hand towards Su Rongrong very gentlemanly. Standard invitation etiquette. It can be seen that Mr. Ouyang has received a good education since childhood. For an evening party, the importance of the opening dance is self evident. Hong Kong is influenced by Western culture, so naturally it attaches great importance to the opening dance. Generally, the most distinguished guest is invited. The fact that Su Rongrong was invited by Master Ouyang already shows her status. What’s more, Su Rongrong is extremely beautiful today. Even for Master Ouyang, who had been used to seeing all kinds of beauties since childhood, he was still very attracted to Su Rongrong. Ouyang Lin is a well known playboy in the circle. There is never a shortage of female companions around him. Although he has never openly admitted his relationship. But there are so many women around him that he has long lost count. In fact, no woman could stay with Ouyang Lin for more than a month. However, this time, he actually wanted to attack Su Rongrong. At this time, Ouyang Lin hid his desires very well. Being so polite. It’s a pity that his eyes still betrayed him. The possessiveness in his eyes made Su Rongrong frown. This kind of look is not the first time I have encountered it. However, Su Rongrong is now in a difficult situation. After all, everyone is watching. If I reject Ouyang Lin, would that be being too arrogant? After all, what Ouyang Lin represents at this time is the wealthy group in Hong Kong. Su Rongrong wanted to find a suitable reason, but she had too little time left. The sudden invitation made Su Rongrong a little at a loss for a moment. Chapter 105: Attracting bees and butterflies Sure enough, sometimes an appearance that is too outstanding is often a double edged sword. While gaining attention and convenience, it also brings some unnecessary troubles. Ouyang Lin is considered a famous playboy in Hong Kong, and real rich daughters usually stay away from him. But it was just an opening dance, and if they refused at this time, it would probably hurt the Ouyang family’s reputation. The wealthy families in Hong Kong are often closely connected and have complex ties to each other. Su Rongrong couldn’t think of a better way to refuse. Just as she was about to stretch out her slender hand, a figure blocked Su Rongrong’s way. “Sorry, Rongrong promised me before that this is my opening dance.” The words were spoken in a joking manner, and the tone seemed a little frivolous. For Lu Yiming, the character of a playboy is something he is very familiar with. “Mr. Lu, I invited you right away.” Ouyang Lin frowned slightly. He was about to get it, but now Lu Yiming intervened. Ouyang Lin was naturally unhappy. “That should be based on first come first served, Mr. Ouyang, please make way.” As he spoke, Lu Yiming had already held Su Rongrong’s right hand and led her towards the center of the banquet hall. “call…” Su Rongrong lowered her head slightly and breathed a sigh of relief. I don’t know why, but when Lu Yiming just stood in front of her, Su Rongrong actually felt a lot more relaxed. Is this what it feels like to be protected? But why is it Lu Yiming? I have always been on guard against Lu Yiming. However, during this period of time, I actually got used to Lu Yiming’s presence. Lowered guard. For Su Rongrong, this is a very dangerous signal. It’s just that Su Rongrong didn’t notice it at this time. “How about it?” “What?” “A hero saves a beautiful girl. If it weren’t for me, you would have become Mr. Ouyang’s rumored girlfriend tomorrow.” “It’s just dancing, it’s not that exaggerated.” “The paparazzi in Hong Kong can write anything, and distorting right and wrong is the least of their worries.” “If you put it that way, then aren’t we…” Su Rongrong answered according to Lu Yiming’s train of thought, but she suddenly stopped halfway through her words. This damn ‘bastard’, is he trying to trick me? “What’s wrong with us?” “Lu Yiming, put away your thoughts, we can’t!” “Don’t be so heartless. I just saved you from suffering.” “I want you to save me?” “Hey, how about giving you back?” “You dare!” Su Rongrong looked up and glared at Lu Yiming fiercely. What am I? A commodity? Give it back! However, as soon as she met Lu Yiming’s eyes, Su Rongrong immediately regretted it. The eyes of this ‘bastard’ were full of smiles, and he was teasing himself again. But why are the eyes of this ‘dog thing’ so beautiful? Under the light, the sky is full of stars. The two people were clearly trying to push each other to their limits, but in the eyes of outsiders, they looked like a couple whispering to each other. The short distance of ten meters was turned into a plot from an idol drama by Su Rongrong and Lu Yiming. Flirting and talking nonsense really shows that you don’t care about this group of people. We are all spectators. “Master Ouyang, it seems you have no chance.” Even the dignified Master Ouyang can fail sometimes. The youngest daughter of the Wang family had a teasing expression on her face. I sent my “blessings” as soon as Master Ouyang lost face. “snort.” Ouyang Lin snorted coldly. This little princess of the Wang family has been at odds with me since she was a child. Of course, the little princess’s reputation wasn’t that good either. Like me, she has had many boyfriends. To use the name used by later generations, they are the King of the Sea and the Queen of the Sea. Ouyang Lin’s expression changed slightly in response to the Wang family’s little princess’s teasing, but he quickly returned to normal. After all, the other party is a distinguished guest of Hong Kong. No matter how stupid I am, I can’t do anything to him. Looking at Lu Yiming holding Su Rongrong’s delicate hand tightly, she felt nothing but envy and jealousy. “Can you dance?” Su Rongrong followed Lu Yiming to the center of the banquet hall. At this moment, all the lights seemed to be focused on the two of them. The focus of the audience. However, at this moment, Su Rongrong suddenly thought of a very serious question. Lu Yiming, can you dance? Don’t embarrass yourself. The first dance in Hong Kong is often the waltz, which is often called a waltz. “I am at least known as the little prince of the dance hall, okay?” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Can you please stop making trouble…” Can ballroom dancing and breakdancing be confused? “Don’t worry, I still have my dignity.” At this moment, music came to my ears. At this time, it was too late for Su Rongrong to make a choice. I was worried at first, but after Lu Yiming performed the first standard move, I felt completely relieved. This ‘bastard’ was just playing tricks on me. Su Rongrong has been receiving training and influence in this area since she was a child. However, he did not expect that Lu Yiming’s opening move was so standard, even more professional than the teacher his father had hired at a high price. Isn’t it said that all playboys don’t like waltz? But Lu Yiming is different. He turned waltz into an ‘art’. “Ouyang, you really lost this time.” Looking at the two people dancing in the center of the banquet hall. The little princess of the Wang family looked envious. Wow, I didn’t expect Lu Yiming to be so capable. I wish it were me. You know, this is the little princess of the royal family who enjoys partying every night, so naturally she has played with many male models. But compared with Lu Yiming, all those male models that made her heart beat faster were looked like trash. I’m drooling just looking at it. At this time, the little princess of the Wang family and Ouyang Lin standing together can definitely form a group of crazy man and resentful woman and debut together. At the end of the song, there was thunderous applause. I have to admit that the performance of these two players was perfect and left a very good impression on the Hong Kong giants. “How about it?” “So so.” The arrogant Su Rongrong would naturally not admit that she was impressed by Lu Yiming’s dancing skills. Lu Yiming: ( ^_^ ) I didn’t expect that the system rewards were not completely useless. “Ms. Su, for this second dance, I wonder if I have the honor to…” “Sorry, Master Ouyang, I’m a little tired.” Faced with Mr. Ouyang’s invitation, Su Rongrong decisively refused. “Mr. Lu, let me introduce myself. I am from the Wang family. You danced really well just now. Can I be your dance partner for the next song?” The little princess of the Wang family has set her sights on Lu Yiming. Such a shy look. If Lu Yiming is willing, they will probably be able to have sex with her tonight. It is said that it is easy for a girl to win over a boy. The little princess of the Wang family is not bad looking. Now that she is delivered to the door, it is indeed difficult to refuse. The moment the little princess of the Wang family appeared, even Su Rongrong couldn’t help but glance over there. This ‘bastard’ is attracting attention again. Chapter 106: Homecoming Based on Su Rongrong’s understanding of Lu Yiming, Lu Yiming would definitely not refuse this romantic encounter that came to his doorstep. But why do I feel uncomfortable in my heart? No, it must be my illusion. What does Lu Yiming want to do have to do with me? Although Su Rongrong kept warning herself in her heart, her expression still became a little ugly. Su Rongrong had a cold face and looked like she wanted to keep strangers away. This made Ouyang Lin, who was standing by, extremely embarrassed. “I’m sorry, I just got stepped on several times and I really can’t jump anymore.” Su Rongrong originally wanted to leave. As a result, I heard such a polite refusal reason. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What’s the meaning? Got stepped on several times? Isn’t this talking about myself? This ‘bastard’ actually used himself as a shield? I dance so beautifully, this is clearly slandering myself! However, Su Rongrong’s mood suddenly brightened a lot at this moment. Su Rongrong: This bastard, he didn’t even come up with a decent excuse. Never mind. I’ll forgive you this time. Su Rongrong might not have realized that Lu Yiming’s decision could affect her mood. “What a pity. I originally wanted to have a deeper exchange with Mr. Lu.” The little princess of the Wang family is not someone who gives up easily. It’s a pity that the person he met this time was Lu Yiming. Lu Yiming could still tell the difference between private cars and buses. Even Lu Yiming in his previous life was not so hungry as to be so indiscriminate as to eat anything. He waved to the waiter, asked for two glasses of champagne, and handed one to Su Rongrong. Under such circumstances, neither Ouyang Lin nor the little princess of the Wang family should continue to get entangled. I can only leave with regret. “You’re not afraid of offending people.” Su Rongrong took a sip of champagne and made a teasing remark. “Actually, I’m creating opportunities for them.” “Um?” “Don’t you think they are evenly matched?” The extreme tug of war between Aquaman and Aquaman is truly spectacular. It seemed to be the case in their previous life, as the two eventually got together and appeared in gossip magazines from time to time. But even so, the two did not divorce. It’s really interesting. “By the way, when did I ever step on your foot?” Su Rongrong said that she still holds a grudge. “It’s a stopgap measure.” “Humph, this won’t happen again.” The arrogant Su Rongrong seems a little cute. This year’s TVB anniversary celebration was exceptionally successful. Of course, the biggest beneficiary is Su Rongrong. Many cooperation intentions were reached during the banquet. For Su Rongrong, it was naturally a fruitful experience. If the country wants to develop, the wealthy people in Hong Kong are indeed good partners. However, everything has its pros and cons. Su Rongrong needs to consider this carefully. After all, it is not wrong to want to introduce foreign capital, but if foreign capital is allowed to take control, it may not be a good thing for emerging domestic industries. How to strike a balance between the two is also an art. At this point, Su Rongrong’s performance once again surprised Lu Yiming. Faced with the “temptation”, Su Rongrong did not lose her mind. Su Rongrong accepted all the kindness from the wealthy Hong Kong family, but she still did not lose her sense of propriety. Just for this reason, Lu Yiming has to admire him. It’s amazing that he can still keep his sanity at this time. Lu Yiming’s trip to Hong Kong this time ended perfectly. The next day, the two of them set out back to Shanghai with the advertising master tape. “No regrets? If you are willing, you can at least bring back hundreds of millions of dollars this time.” “Before I figure out the relationship behind the funds, I won’t be so stupid as to make wedding clothes for others.” “It’s really scary how calm he is.” “Same here.” Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong looked at each other and saw approval of each other in their eyes. Zhuang Sheng specially sent the two of them to the airport. Not everyone can have such treatment. “Miss Su, what is the agreement between us?” In the VIP waiting room of the airport, Zhuang Sheng couldn’t help but remind him. “Don’t worry, Zhuang Sheng. You are a very good partner. After I go back, I will organize a practical plan. The Magic City welcomes you.” “Okay, then I’ll wait for good news.” Compared to other wealthy families, Zhuang Sheng’s funds are relatively “clean” and there is no possibility of involving foreign funds. After 1997, they have been a “family”. Su Rongrong naturally welcomed Zhuang Sheng’s investment. “Lu Sheng, I’m sorry for not hosting you well this time. I look forward to our next meeting.” Zhuang Sheng also has a good impression of Lu Yiming. These two young men are rare business geniuses. To be honest, after meeting these two people, even Zhuang Sheng couldn’t help but sigh that he was really old. The future belongs to the young. Compared to the two people in front of us, the young generation in Hong Kong lives too comfortably. Zhuang Sheng couldn’t help but sigh. The plane took off from Hong Kong and its destination was Hongqiao Airport in Shanghai. “Actually, I was a little surprised.” “What?” “Uncle actually held back this time.” Even though such a big thing happened, Su Yunchang did not show up in Hong Kong. This was indeed a bit unexpected for Su Yunchang, who loved his daughter dearly. Su Yunchang caused quite a stir. But logically speaking, Su Yunchang should not have failed to show up when his beloved daughter was bullied in Hong Kong. “I’m not a kid. I can handle it.” Su Rongrong rolled her eyes at Lu Yiming, turned her head away and ignored him. Just looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside the porthole. Su Rongrong recalled the conversation she had with her father. Su Rongrong had made it clear that Lu Yiming could protect her. Although Lu Yiming was still lying in the emergency room at that time. But Su Rongrong knew that Lu Yiming would not let herself get hurt. Su Rongrong didn’t know why she had such confidence. But this time, I made the right bet again, didn’t I? “Have a good rest. We will be busy next.” Lu Yiming was quite satisfied with the advertisement, and he was confident that it would become popular across the country once it was launched. There is also the movie “Young and Dangerous”, which has already caused quite a storm. Even young people in Hong Kong are asking around for the “Little Pager” that appears in the movie. It’s a pity that we are currently unable to get involved in Hong Kong’s mobile communications industry, otherwise it would be a huge market. “Don’t worry, I will definitely cooperate, but I am worried about other domestic capital.” The prospects for the Xiaolingtong project are very good. But Su Rongrong also has her own concerns. This is how the capital market works. Once huge profits appear, capital will swarm in like a crocodile smelling blood. Whether it can be held is still an unknown. “Do you know why I want to get Gaoyuan Capital involved?” “Lu Yiming, you really are…” Su Rongrong didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This puts the Su family in the front. As expected, Lu Yiming, you ‘bastard’ are a profiteer, and you don’t hide it at all! Chapter 107 Slightly Trembling Hands Huashan Hospital in Shanghai. “Mom, I just went to see the attending physician, and we can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow.” A long lost smile appeared on Cheng Xiao’s face. The attending physician said that the effect of treatment at this stage is very good. My mother’s condition has been effectively controlled. In the next stage, the hospital will try to get new drugs for my mother to undergo clinical trials. To Cheng Xiao, all this seemed like a dream. When he was about to be swallowed by darkness, it was Lu Yiming who brought him light and hope. His life changed completely after Lu Yiming appeared. My mother received the best possible treatment. The worsening condition was brought under control. In order to be able to work with peace of mind, Lu Yiming also hired a special nurse for his mother. even… Thinking of this, a hint of tenderness appeared on Cheng Xiao’s face. Cheng Xiao has been wearing the bracelet that Lu Yiming gave her. Although Lu Yiming said that this bracelet is not “valuable”. But for Cheng Xiao, this is her most precious gift. “good.” Cheng’s mother also looked very happy. She was finally able to be discharged from the hospital. She had been smelling disinfectant all day long. It was time to change the environment. According to my current physical condition, I should not need to be hospitalized again within half a year. Maybe my life really has a future. “Don’t worry, Mom, things will get better.” For Cheng Xiao, the only regret during this period is probably that she could not see Lu Yiming. During this period, Cheng Xiao has been staying by Li Li’s side. Hard work always pays off. Cheng Xiao’s performance has been recognized by Li Li. Li Li handed more tasks to Cheng Xiao. This is also a trust in Cheng Xiao. Cheng Xiao is now responsible for connecting with the telecommunications group. The Xiaolingtong project has also reached its final stage. Telecom has obtained the signal channel and the new phones have been shipped to the country. It can be rolled out across the board in the next two days. A storm belonging to Xiaolingtong is about to blow across the country. Although the first batch of distribution will all be in large cities in China, Cheng Xiao believes that with prices far lower than those of competitors and communication costs close to those of local calls, Xiaolingtong will surely occupy the majority of the market in the first place. For Xiaolingtong, it is just a matter of time. But at this critical moment, why hasn’t Lu Yiming come back yet? Is it really like what colleagues gossiped about, that Xiao Lu is always enjoying himself and doesn’t want to leave? Is it really because of Su Rongrong? Cheng Xiao didn’t know why, but she always had wild thoughts during this period. Especially when I am free, I can’t help but think of Lu Yiming. The figure of this man seemed to live in the depths of my heart. “Nannan?” “Nannan?!” “Oh, Mom, what did you just say?” When awakened by Cheng’s mother, Cheng Xiao seemed a little flustered. “Nannan, are you too tired from work? You shouldn’t work too hard. You should rest when you need to.” “Mom, don’t worry, I’m not tired.” Cheng Xiao reacted and hurried to help her mother clean up. Looking at her daughter busying around, Mother Cheng sighed softly. No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Cheng Xiao’s abnormal behavior during this period was noticed by her mother. Suddenly, I became distracted for no reason. Sometimes when we are chatting, things will suddenly become quiet. It’s not work pressure, could it be because you have someone you like? Could it be Lu Yiming? Cheng’s mother has met Lu Yiming. To be honest, in Cheng’s mother’s eyes, Lu Yiming is indeed a very outstanding child. He has an unattainable family background and is also quite outstanding himself. However, such a child may not necessarily be a good match for my daughter. The gap between the two is too big. If my daughter really falls in love with him. This road is too difficult for my daughter. What’s more, my daughter is a gentle person with a strong heart. This relationship is not suitable for my daughter. But Cheng’s mother couldn’t persuade him, and didn’t know how to persuade him. “Why…” Mother Cheng looked at her busy daughter and sighed helplessly. “Mom, I’ve packed everything. You can rest assured and I’ll pick you up from the hospital tomorrow.” “Okay, you should go back and rest early too.” It seems that after being discharged from the hospital, I should find an opportunity to have a good talk with my daughter. In fact, Cheng’s mother had already discovered the bracelet on Cheng Xiao’s wrist. Ever since the incident at home, my daughter seldom dresses herself up, let alone wears ornaments. This time, it was unexpected that she wore a bracelet for the first time. At this time, Cheng Xiao had already arrived at the first floor lobby. However, the original pace suddenly stopped. Cheng Xiaoxiao: Am I dreaming? Could it be that I miss someone too much? Why did his figure appear in front of me? Lu Yiming? It’s really Lu Yiming! At this time, Lu Yiming was dragging his suitcase and walking towards the emergency department. “Mr. Lu?!” Cheng Xiao subconsciously called out Lu Yiming’s name. The other party stopped and it was really Mr. Lu. “Are you here to take care of your aunt?” Lu Yiming also looked surprised. After getting off the plane, Lu Yiming took a taxi to the hospital. On the plane, Lu Yiming always felt that the wound on his back had some indescribable feeling. It feels a bit itchy and a little painful. It’s not that Lu Yiming doesn’t trust the experts in Hong Kong. But after all, it’s such a long cut, so it’s better to be cautious. After saying goodbye to Su Rongrong, Lu Yiming took a taxi to the hospital. But I didn’t expect to meet Cheng Xiao here by chance. It was really a coincidence. “Mr. Lu, what’s wrong with you?” “It’s not working hours. I told you last time that there’s no need to be so formal.” “So where do you feel uncomfortable?” “It’s nothing serious, come and change the medicine.” “Change the dressing? I’ll accompany you.” “No need, it’s not like… er, okay.” Seeing the determination in Cheng Xiao’s eyes, Lu Yiming knew that it would be useless for him to say anything. This kind of look was not the first time I had seen it in my previous life. Lu Yiming knew Cheng Xiao’s temper very well. Finally, accompanied by Cheng Xiao, he walked into the emergency surgery clinic. “Ahem, how about you go out and wait?” Lu Yiming was afraid that Cheng Xiao would be embarrassed, after all, he would have to take off his clothes soon. The relationship between the two has indeed not reached this point. “What are you doing out there? You must be my girlfriend. Stay and help. Take off your shirt and lie on the bed.” It seems that the doctor misunderstood the relationship between the two. But I can’t really blame the doctor. If they weren’t a couple, why would they come to the hospital together so late at night? Judging from the description just now, the wound on the patient’s back should be quite long, so there is no harm in leaving someone to help. “Mr. Lu, uh, no, Lu Yiming, let me help you.” At this moment, Cheng Xiao seemed to have made up her mind. She stretched out her slightly trembling little hand and tried to unbutton Lu Yiming’s shirt. Chapter 108 Ambiguous Treatment “hiss…” Cheng Xiao never thought that Lu Yiming was injured so seriously. Under the coat, there were bandages all over. How painful would this be? How could Lu Yiming bear it? Didn’t you say that you were going to Hong Kong to discuss cooperation? Why did it hurt?! These questions kept circling in Cheng Xiao’s mind, but now was not the time to ask them. “It’s not that exaggerated. It’s not serious. It’s just that the swelling is a little scary.” Lu Yiming looked at Cheng Xiao’s worried eyes and answered subconsciously. This scene seems familiar. In his previous life, he was also sent to the hospital due to a car accident. When his wife Cheng Xiao rushed to the hospital, she also looked worried. It’s like the memories are overlapping. It’s a pity that I was wrong in the end. Cheng Xiao held Lu Yiming’s shirt in her arms, and the doctor carefully cut the bandage on Lu Yiming’s body. “Isn’t this serious?” Looking at the centipede like scars on Lu Yiming’s back, Cheng Xiao’s eyes became slightly moist. It’s such a long wound, and it took so many stitches, and you still say it’s okay? What is going on? “It was a little festering, which shouldn’t have happened. It was handled very well.” The doctor checked and found that it was nothing serious. The suturing technique was very good and the best cosmetic thread was used. In theory, as long as it is properly protected, suppuration should not occur. “It should be that he went out to sea.” Zhuang Sheng invited Lu Yiming to go out to sea, so of course he couldn’t refuse. It was probably because the sea was too humid that caused the suppuration. “Young man, even though you have a good foundation, you can’t do whatever you want. You’re injured like this, and you still want to play.” The doctor naturally didn’t know what had happened. He shook his head and criticized Lu Yiming. This is not taking your body seriously. This is the type of patient that doctors fear most. No matter how well you handle it in the early stages, you must still take a good rest. “Luckily we arrived in time, otherwise I would probably be left with a scar.” The doctor checked again and fortunately, the suppuration was not serious. Otherwise, once a scar is formed, it will be troublesome. Then you have to wait until you are fully recovered before having another plastic surgery. It’s like suffering again. There is really no need. “It’s troublesome.” “Lie down on the bed. You can bear the pain. The wound is too big. For your health, I won’t give you anesthesia.” If you need to treat a purulent wound, you need to prick part of the wound and then rinse it again with iodine. Of course, irritating pain is unavoidable. The key is that the wound is too long and requires a lot of treatment. To be honest, this pain is a little more intense than at the beginning. This is why doctors need to provide advance care. “Tell your girlfriend to come over and hold you down.” “No, doctor, you…” The word “misunderstanding” has not yet been uttered. Cheng Xiao had already come to Lu Yiming as the doctor instructed. “You’re already in a relationship, why are you still shy? You’re a grown man, but you’re even more pretentious than your girlfriend.” The doctor smiled, completely unaware that he was just making random matches. “Press it tight for a while, don’t let him struggle.” The sutures used are cosmetic thread, which is very easy to break. The smaller the struggle, the more beneficial it will be for Lu Yiming’s subsequent recovery. After the doctor explained the situation, Cheng Xiao quickly agreed. “good.” Lu Yiming wanted to say something. result… “ah?!” Lu Yiming swore that he was really very patient. Even with normal pain, Lu Yiming would never even frown. But this time… I felt my entire skin burning, followed by a sharp stinging pain. If the doctor hadn’t warned him in advance, Lu Yiming would have jumped up long ago. And Cheng Xiao, seeing this scene, tried her best. Girls have little power. In order to prevent Lu Yiming from struggling, Cheng Xiao actually used half of her body to press down on Lu Yiming. This scene is really… How to describe it? Lu Yiming was lying on the hospital bed while handling the case. And Cheng Xiao was standing above Lu Yiming’s head. The doctor had to treat Lu Yiming’s wound, so Cheng Xiao had only this position. In order to prevent Lu Yiming from struggling, half of Cheng Xiao’s body naturally pressed on Lu Yiming’s shoulders. In this posture, Cheng Xiao’s towering chest was completely pressed against the back of Lu Yiming’s head. this… Such a touch. Lu Yiming said that at this moment, he had completely forgotten the pain in his back. “Don’t be afraid, it will be fine in a while.” Cheng Xiao had no idea that Lu Yiming had taken advantage of her. Although this benefit was offered by Cheng Xiao on her own initiative. But Cheng Xiao was so nervous that she was completely unaware of all this. Instead, she kept comforting Lu Yiming. The doctor was extremely envious of this scene. Doctor: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… It’s easy for me. Working the night shift is already tiring, and now I’m being fed a mouthful of dog food? What a beautiful girl. It can be seen that this couple is true love. Ten minute treatment. Cheng Xiao held Lu Yiming down like this. For Cheng Xiao, as a girl, she naturally didn’t dare to look at the bloody scene before her. Cheng Xiao kept her eyes closed the whole time. She continued to comfort Lu Yiming. until… “Okay, little girl, it’s all taken care of.” After hearing the doctor’s words, Cheng Xiao came back to her senses. When I opened my eyes, I found something wrong. The doctor’s eyes were too ambiguous. For the doctor, the scene before him was a deep blow to himself as a single man. “ah…” Cheng Xiao quickly stood up, her face flushed at that moment. I didn’t even dare to look up. Myself, how could I… “I, I’ll go out and wait.” The atmosphere in the clinic was so ambiguous that Cheng Xiao felt like she was having difficulty breathing. He quickly fled the clinic. “Young man, you are so lucky.” The doctor smiled. The little girl was very thin skinned. As for Lu Yiming, he was in a trance like state during the entire treatment period. Especially the feeling from the back of the head is really stimulating. After all, it’s still the age when you’re full of vigor and vitality. “Okay, I’ll bandage it for you first. You can take it off tomorrow. Remember, don’t touch water for three days.” The doctor prescribed some antibiotics and gave some advice. When Lu Yiming arrived at the door, there was no trace of Cheng Xiao. It seems that he is really shy. As for Lu Yiming, he was struggling in his heart. Could this life really be as he had expected? No, I have already hurt Cheng Xiao deeply in my last life, and I must not repeat the same mistake in this life. She is very good, really very good. It’s a pity that I can’t go against my conscience. Chapter 109 The Group is Deep Early in the morning, Lu Yiming’s Ferrari drove into the Lu Group on time. As usual, he parked in Lu Aijun’s exclusive parking space. It was like sending a clear signal to everyone. I am the future owner of the Lu Group. Lu Yiming’s return indeed made many people uneasy. I’m used to Lu Aijun’s style of doing things, but Mr. Lu is even more overbearing. No mercy. This is the unanimous opinion of the top management of Lu Group on Lu Yiming. Even the company’s veterans have no advantage when it comes to funding issues involving the investment department. “You are finally back, but many people can’t sit still anymore.” The logistics department is located on the tenth floor. Lu Yiming did not go to his office immediately, but went to the logistics department. From here, you can see the entire headquarters parking lot, which is a great location. “The dark circles under my eyes are a bit heavy.” “hehe.” Wang Lan rolled her eyes. During the time when Lu Yiming was away, he had no free time. Busy day and night. Since taking over the position of head of logistics department. Wang Lan is walking on thin ice. In the Lu Group, Wang Lan has no upper level power to rely on, and has to solve everything on her own. What’s even more infuriating is Lu Yiming. They just threw themselves into the logistics department without any support at all. If I didn’t have some skills, I probably wouldn’t be able to make it through a week. Before Wang Lan came, Minister Zhang had already run the logistics department into an ironclad organization. Water cannot be poured in, and a needle cannot be inserted. When trying to carry out work, I was met with obstacles at every turn. Everyone knows that Wang Lan is the first person recruited by Lu Yiming since he took office. If Wang Lan encountered setbacks in the Lu Group, it would also be a “Waterloo” for Lu Yiming. This is what the company’s veterans want to see. It’s a pity that they underestimated Wang Lan’s ability and even more so Lu Yiming’s vision. He would rather spend money to recruit Wang Lan. What Lu Yiming values is naturally Wang Lan’s own abilities and value. “I didn’t expect that Mr. Lu would care about his subordinates.” “I guess so. Did you gain anything?” Wang Lan: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… We just met and you’re asking these questions. You’re not hiding anything at all. “There are some gains. There are many problems with the accounts of the logistics department. Although the accounts have been done, they still cannot be concealed.” The account book seems to be flawless, but in fact, there is a lot of water in it. No wonder Lu Yiming doesn’t trust the Logistics Department. If this continues, the Lu Group will be rotten to the core. “I believe in your ability.” “No, I want the authority. There is some information that I don’t have the authority to investigate.” The authority of the head of the logistics department is still too low for Wang Lan. “I don’t have the authority.” “Boss Lu, that’s too much.” Ever since meeting Lu Yiming today, Wang Lan has been rolling her eyes. He wants me to find the problem, but he doesn’t give me the authority to do so. Wang Lan knew very well that the Lu Group had some serious problems. There are so many loopholes in the logistics department alone. What this means is self evident. However, if I want to investigate further, my current position is not suitable. “If you don’t have permission, then find a way to get it.” “Mr. Lu said it lightly.” Wang Lan shook his head. It was already quite difficult for him to grasp the situation at hand when he was attacked from all sides. unless… Wait, this is what Lu Yiming just meant. Wang Lan didn’t know if there was something wrong with her understanding. If my guess is correct. The next moment, Wang Lan looked at Lu Yiming with surprise. No way, is it that tough? Are you ready to take action? If you don’t have permission, then strive for it. There is nothing wrong with this sentence. But how to get the authority? The simplest way is to let Wang Lan take the position of head of the logistics department. And now sitting in this position is Minister Zhang of the Logistics Department. In other words, if your understanding is correct. Lu Yiming was hinting at himself to take his place. this… How long have you been employed? Lu Yiming didn’t consider himself an outsider at all. “The existing evidence is still a little weak.” After all, the other party is the boss of the logistics department. Another old member of the group. The old man who followed Lu Aijun to conquer the world. The evidence at hand is not enough to bring down the other party. After all, Wang Lan couldn’t guess what Lu Aijun was thinking. Even Lu Yiming probably wouldn’t be able to really figure it out. “Plus this.” Lu Yiming took out a document from his bag and handed it to Wang Lan. “This is…” Wang Lan opened the materials and took a look at them, his pupils trembling. If this material is true, then Minister Zhang will be “certainly dead”. “Don’t worry about where it comes from, just ask if it’s enough.” “That’s enough.” Wang Lan took a deep breath. With this thing, I will be absolutely sure. “Tomorrow morning, I will go to the president’s office with you.” “Mr. Lu, you really have a clear distinction between public and private affairs.” It’s obviously my father’s office. “One thing is one thing. Only when you have demonstrated your ability can you control the situation. The same applies to the relationship between father and son.” Although Lu Aijun will definitely choose to favor his son. But it is impossible to let Lu Yiming cause chaos in the group without any evidence. This is Lu Aijun’s bottom line. “I didn’t expect to be promoted so soon.” “If my annual salary doubles, I can pay less.” Wang Lan: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Oh, man! “Organize the materials on hand. There must be no mistakes tomorrow.” After saying that, Lu Yiming turned and left Wang Lan’s office. As for what to do next, there is no need for Lu Yiming to remind him. Wang Lan is not a fool. Compared with the Lu Group, Wang Lan can easily handle the bloody storms in the investment banking industry, so Lu Yiming naturally doesn’t need to worry about this. Of course, for Lu Yiming, there is something more important. The last time he and Su Rongrong had an accident, he wondered if there was a dark hand behind it. If so, what is the other party’s intention? Take the opportunity to bring down the Lu family? Lu Yiming still hasn’t figured out why he had to do such a thing as killing the goose that lays the eggs. Once the big tree of Lu Group collapses, no executive will see 100% profit. With a lot of thoughts in mind, Lu Yiming returned to his office. “Where’s Cheng Xiao?” “Assistant Cheng asked for leave, saying that he would pick up his mother from the hospital today.” “knew.” Lu Yiming nodded. At this time in the previous life, Cheng Xiao’s mother had passed away because she had no money to continue treatment. In this life, things finally turned around. Perhaps, Cheng Xiao can have a different life. Lu Yiming had already picked up the car keys, but after standing there for a moment, he put them down silently. Chapter 110 Causes and consequences “Xiaoxiao, this is not the way back.” Mother Cheng looked at the street outside the car window with a confused look on her face. During the time I was in the hospital, there were earth shaking changes outside? This is too outrageous. “Mom, we’re moving.” “move place?” Mother Cheng was stunned at first, and soon showed an uncomfortable expression. I am the one who has dragged my daughter down. Are lofts in the city center no longer affordable? Didn’t you say you found a new job? Yes, it must be closer to the workplace, there is nothing wrong with that. “Just change it. Don’t worry, I can get used to living anywhere.” In order to reassure her daughter, Cheng’s mother forced herself to smile. However, when the taxi stopped at the gate of this high end residential area. Mother Cheng was completely shocked. It was not the old style alleyway she had imagined, but a brand new commercial house with a magnificent and grand lobby, which made Cheng’s mother feel so unreal. “Mom, don’t just stand there, I’ll help you get out of the car.” “Is this really the place?” Mother Cheng raised her head and felt a little dizzy. “Um.” “Xiaoxiao, tell mom what happened?” Mother Cheng’s expression suddenly became serious. My daughter’s life has changed dramatically. It should have been a happy thing, but Cheng’s mother thought of another possibility. Cheng’s mother was not blind and knew how beautiful her daughter was. Could it be that my daughter really has become the wife of a rich man… Thinking of this, Cheng’s mother’s face became even darker. My daughter has always been very strong willed. No matter how poor her life was, my daughter always stood tall and never lost her self respect. Is it myself, or because of myself. For a moment, Cheng’s mother burst into tears. “It’s me. If mom hadn’t dragged you down, you wouldn’t have…” “Mom, don’t let your imagination run wild. Come home first, okay? I’ll explain it to you slowly.” Faced with her mother’s questioning, Cheng Xiao remained silent for a long time. It’s not that I don’t want to answer, but Cheng Xiao doesn’t know how to explain it. Not to mention my mother, even I myself felt that my life had undergone earth shaking changes after meeting Lu Yiming. All of this is difficult for ordinary people to understand. How can I explain it clearly? “Xiaoxiao, let’s go back to the old house. Don’t worry, Mom’s illness is under control. She can also work for others. We can’t, we can’t…” “mom…” Yes, which mother doesn’t want her children to live with dignity? Even if life has forced you into a desperate situation. “Mom, please believe me.” Cheng Xiao wiped the corners of her eyes, looking determined. “Mom, all of this is earned by my daughter’s hard work. Although Mr. Lu helped me, don’t worry, my daughter’s self esteem is always there.” “Lu Yiming? Your classmate?” “Yes, Mom, I’ll tell you everything when I get back.” Cheng Xiao supported her mother. This was the first time that Cheng’s mother took the elevator. When entering the bridge box, Cheng’s mother was obviously a little uncomfortable. One could even feel that Cheng’s mother didn’t even dare to breathe. When Cheng Xiao opened the door of the room. The bright living room once again brought great shock to Cheng’s mother. Separate bathroom, separate kitchen, separate room. These are things that Cheng’s mother could never have imagined in her dreams. You can even see the Huangpu River from the floor to ceiling windows in the living room. Although this apartment was built in Pudong. In today’s era, the thinking of the old Modu people is still somewhat conservative. The idea that one would rather have a bed in Puxi than a house in Pudong is deeply rooted. But for Cheng’s mother, she never dared to dream of such a house. “Mom, please sit down and I’ll pour you some tea.” “Don’t worry, sit down.” Mother Cheng did not forget the answer Cheng Xiao had promised her because of the shock she saw. “mom…” He was determined when he saw his mother. Cheng Xiao sat down next to her mother silently. “Mom, I can tell you, but you have to promise not to get excited.” “Tell me, Mom is not excited.” Hearing this, Cheng’s mother felt very disappointed. It seems that my guess was correct. For her own sake, the girl ended up selling her body. sorrow. Deep sorrow. Only in this way can we get all this. “Mom, it’s not what you think…” Cheng Xiao knew that her mother had misunderstood again. But when should I start? Yes, it was that night, in the hospital’s finance office. At the darkest moment of his life, Lu Yiming descended from the sky and brought him the only light in his life. “Mom, this is what happened.” Cheng Xiao spoke out what was hidden in her heart without reservation. This actually opened up the wound in my heart that had not yet healed. That night, Cheng Xiao was desperate. Even Cheng Xiao didn’t dare to imagine whether she would fall into hell if it weren’t for Lu Yiming. “brute!” Mother Cheng never imagined that a doctor, an angel in white, could be so hypocritical. “Mom, I was desperate at that time. I held the scissors in my hand and wanted to die with him.” When Cheng Xiao said this, Cheng’s mother’s hands couldn’t help but tremble. Cheng Xiao had never said these words to herself. At that time, I had reached the stage where I was running out of energy. Without treatment, I might not survive the next day. Cheng Xiao didn’t dare to say it. I was afraid that Cheng’s mother would get so excited that there would not even be a chance to rescue him. Cheng Xiao kept all of this in her heart. Cheng Xiao didn’t dare mention this to anyone except Lu Yiming. And today, Cheng Xiao finally spoke out the secret in her heart. Tell it to the people closest to you. At this moment, Cheng Xiao felt a lot more relaxed. “I’m sorry for you. If I hadn’t been holding you back, you wouldn’t have…” “Mom, it’s okay. It’s all over. Really, I’m fine now. He suddenly broke into my life when I was most desperate.” Cheng Xiao will never forget the scene when Lu Yiming kicked open the office door. The light brought by Lu Yiming illuminated Cheng Xiao’s future life. “Lu Yiming saved me.” “Where’s that beastly doctor?” “There is sufficient evidence and it has entered the judicial trial stage.” Lu Yiming has been handling this matter. Lu Yiming said that no matter how much money it costs, he must bring the other party to justice. They were even afraid that Cheng Xiao would recall the unpleasant experience, so everything was done by a lawyer. Cheng Xiao did not appear in court. Lu Yiming protected Cheng Xiao very well. Lu Yiming originally thought that Cheng Xiao would not know this. But Lu Yiming was wrong. Cheng Xiao knew, and had always been clear about everything Lu Yiming had done for her. “Your job is also Lu Yiming…” “Yes, all the medical expenses, nursing care, my job, and this house were given by Lu Yiming.” “Daughter, tell me, have you been with him…” There were some things that Cheng’s mother really found difficult to ask. But if it was Lu Yiming, perhaps Mother Cheng could convince herself to accept it. Chapter 111 Tit for tat At this time, Cheng’s mother was also very conflicted. Lu Yiming helped his daughter so much. Should I continue asking? If, as he imagined, his daughter had really become Lu Yiming’s secret lover. What should I do? “Mom, it’s not what I thought. Yes, at the beginning, I thought so too.” In fact, Cheng Xiao was ready to sacrifice herself. My mother guessed correctly, it was for the cost of her mother’s medical treatment. That night at school, Cheng Xiao mustered up her courage, even in front of Lu Yiming… But Lu Yiming is different from other men. In Lu Yiming’s eyes, Cheng Xiao saw a clear look without conquest and desire. This was the first time that Cheng Xiao saw such clear eyes. A lot of things happened afterwards. Even when he was drunk, Lu Yiming always stuck to his bottom line. All this touched Cheng Xiao deeply. Lu Yiming may be the only person, besides his parents, who remembers his birthday. That night, Cheng Xiao was really touched. Cheng Xiao has never taken off the bracelet that Lu Yiming gave her. Perhaps, this has already shown one’s attitude. However, Cheng Xiao buried everything in her heart. Yes, Cheng Xiao didn’t dare to mention it. Because Cheng Xiao was afraid, afraid that she might lose. Moreover, I am not even qualified to stand beside Lu Yiming now. Apart from being pretty, I have nothing good to offer. This was the first time that Cheng Xiao felt inferior in front of the opposite sex. “Mom, Lu Yiming is indeed very good to me, but don’t worry, there is nothing innocent between us. Perhaps, Lu Yiming just feels sorry for me.” “Xiaoxiao…” What else can Cheng’s mother say? It was the first time I saw my daughter so unconfident. “Silly child, I’m an experienced person. In this world, there is no love or hate without reason. Although I don’t know what Lu Yiming really thinks now, I can feel that you are very important to him.” “real?” “Of course, how could mom lie to you.” Mother Cheng was very grateful for everything that Lu Yiming had done. What is even more commendable is that Lu Yiming did not force his daughter to do anything. There are few men like this in the world. “Mom, don’t worry, I will work hard. This may be the only way I can repay Lu Yiming.” At work, Cheng Xiao really works very hard. This was noticed not only by Lu Yiming but also by everyone in the investment department. Once Cheng Xiao starts working, she works day and night. Moreover, Cheng Xiao has a high level of comprehension. Even Li Li recognizes Cheng Xiao’s potential. “If possible, please invite Lu Yiming home for a meal. We don’t have much to thank him for. We just need to do our best.” “this…” “Silly child, can’t mom see what’s on your mind?” “Mom, that’s not the case. I really haven’t thought about this.” Cheng Xiao hurriedly denied it. It’s not that I don’t want to, but that I dare not. Seeing her daughter like this, Cheng’s mother sighed secretly. It’s not so easy to untie my daughter’s knot. And at this time the Lu Group. The weekly high level meeting started as scheduled. However, this meeting became the beginning of some senior officials criticizing Lu Yiming. “Mr. Lu, I would like to ask you to explain that since the establishment of the investment department, a large amount of funds have been invested, but at present, the results are minimal.” Yes, from the beginning of the meeting, some senior executives could no longer hold back. The investment department controlled by Lu Yiming has been spending money all the time. The company is short of funds. If this continues, even the real estate projects will be affected. This is absolutely unacceptable to the senior management. “Mr. Zhou is very anxious.” “Mr. Lu, please answer my question directly. We all know that the group’s focus is currently on real estate projects. Moreover, this piece of land was also decided by Mr. Lu. We have made a huge investment upfront. If we keep dragging it out, every day will be a huge loss for the group.” “Then I want to ask Mr. Zhou, how much money do you need to revitalize the project?” “this…” “In my opinion, the 30 million from the investment department may not be enough to fill this hole.” “Boss Lu, 30 million is certainly not enough, but it is enough for us to survive until the foreign trade funds are recovered.” “Yes, Mr. Lu, we have already done research at the beginning.” “Everyone, I want to remind you that according to relevant regulations, pre sales cannot be carried out before the project is capped, and recovering funds will not be as easy as you think.” “Boss Lu, we have made a plan for this situation.” “Contingency plan?” Lu Yiming smiled coldly. “If I’m not mistaken, your so called contingency plan is a high value loan from the bank.” “Mr. Lu, this is what everyone in the real estate industry does nowadays. There’s nothing wrong with us doing this.” “Yes, Mr. Lu, we are also working for the development of the group.” “This is our first real estate project after all, so we naturally have to invest 100 percent.” “Can I understand this as a way of gaining publicity without making any money? Using the company’s money and reputation to make a loss making deal?” “Mr. Lu, please be careful with your words. Your father also agreed to this project.” Tit for tat. Perhaps no one had expected that the first confrontation between Mr. Lu’s investment department and the group’s senior management would break out suddenly without any warning. “Mr. Lu, we are not questioning your ability, but you should give everyone an explanation. We are all for the future of the group, but you have invested 30 million in the so called handheld wireless phone system, but so far, you have not reported the progress of the project at the joint meeting. This is indeed a violation of regulations.” “Even Mr. Lu would like a reasonable explanation.” From the beginning of the meeting to now, Lu Aijun has not spoken at all. The top leaders were allowed to form an encirclement around Lu Yiming. This tacit attitude has caused some people in the upper echelons to have illusions. Could it be that Mr. Lu is also dissatisfied with his own son? If this is really the case, should I add more fuel to the fire? After all, after Lu Yiming established the investment department, he had touched the “cake” of many people. It broke the company’s original balance. Although no one knows Mr. Lu’s true thoughts. But looking at it now, he should still stand more on the side of his old brother. Lu Yiming took the time to look at his father. The eye contact between the father and son revealed a lot of information. Chapter 112: Losing in the previous life was too unfair Lu Aijun: Don’t expect me to help you. Lu Yiming: Dad, you are not domineering enough. Lu Aijun: Boy, think about how to break the impasse. This is just a small test for you. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… As expected, my father just came to watch the fun. Of course, Lu Yiming also agreed with his father’s approach. After all, it concerns the future of the group. You can’t just put your life’s foundation into your own hands without careful inspection. What do the first generation of rich people fear the most? It’s not about the rich second generation eating, drinking and having fun. How much does this cost? What the first generation of rich people fear most is the second generation of rich people saying they want to start a business. It is very likely that you will lose everything you have worked so hard to build throughout your life. Lu Aijun had to be on guard against this. If he can’t even solve this small matter, Lu Aijun will only be disappointed in his son. “Everyone, I indeed forgot to report. Fortunately, everyone is here today. Li Li, let me show you the materials we have prepared.” It was originally a sudden attack, but unexpectedly, Lu Yiming did not panic at all. This scene made some senior officials frown secretly. Is he just pretending, or is he really confident? Li Li, on her part, distributed the documents that had been prepared long ago to all the attendees. “I’m sorry, I’ve been really busy lately. The handheld wireless phone system we acquired has now been officially renamed Xiaolingtong, and we’ve received a first round investment of 30 million from Gaoyuan Capital. The money has arrived. If you don’t believe me, I’ll ask the Finance Department to issue a certificate later.” “this…” “30 million?” “I just spent 30 million and got an investment of 3000. Isn’t this just making money out of nothing?” “Hiss… Mr. Lu is really good at this.” The senior officials who were originally neutral now showed a look of shock. This is too exaggerated. What methods did Mr. Lu use? In just one month, we achieved a 100% profit. Never mind the future of this handheld wireless phone system. Just for this business, the group is making no capital investment. Every penny earned thereafter is profit for the group. At this time, the faces of some senior executives were not very good. Who would have thought that I was still a step slow. The original message received was that it was still being connected. Who would have thought that Gaoyuan Capital was so impatient. Especially Mr. Xu, who had cooperated with Gaoyuan Capital before, naturally knew some inside information. That’s why he couldn’t wait to launch an attack on Lu Yiming. But now it all seems like a joke. Mr. Xu’s face became even gloomier. “Boss Lu, we didn’t even know anything about the 3,000 yuan investment. Boss Lu really kept it a secret.” “Mr. Xu, you must be joking. It’s just an investment. There’s really no need to make such a fuss.” “Mr. Lu, this is incredible. This is 30 million. Back then, we old guys worked very hard with Mr. Lu for a whole year, but we couldn’t earn 30 million.” Seeing that there was no hope of turning defeat into victory, he began to speak in a sarcastic tone. “Boss Lu, I heard that Gaoyuan Capital’s investment agreement is not just like this. There seem to be many versions, and there is also an investment of 4,000. I just don’t know what’s the mentality of Boss Lu that he insisted on investing 30 million?” 10 million. This is 10 million. Even for the Lu Group, it is not a small amount. As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s attention was once again focused on Lu Yiming. Everyone wants to wait for Lu Yiming’s explanation. “Oh? Mr. Xu also knows this?” “I heard about it by chance.” Mr. Xu smiled with his face but not his heart. Although he could not pose a threat to Lu Yiming this time, it was still good to let Lu Yiming suffer a defeat. 10 million. It is enough to attract Mr. Lu’s attention. Did Lu Yiming have any hidden agenda in this, or was there some trick going on? You don’t need to give an answer. People will always make groundless guesses. It is enough for you to provide a hypothesis and a possibility. “Boss Xu, if you know it so clearly, why didn’t you bring it up at the beginning?” “Without any real evidence, I can’t just make random guesses.” “Boss Xu really put in a lot of effort.” “Mr. Lu, please explain the situation. After all, everyone is quite curious.” “Explanation? Mr. Xu, I can only say that you are short sighted.” “you…” Faced with Lu Yiming’s ridicule, Mr. Xu felt like his lungs were about to explode. After all, I am a veteran of the company and the second in command of the company. When I started my business with Mr. Lu, you, Lu Yiming, were still wearing open crotch pants. Now he is mocking himself for being short sighted in a high level meeting? I believe it won’t be long before Lu Yiming’s sarcasm spreads throughout the company. This will be a huge blow to Mr. Xu’s prestige. “Mr. Lu, please be careful with your words.” “Yes, President Xu has worked hard for the company and has made great contributions. Isn’t it inappropriate to evaluate a senior executive like this?” “Am I wrong? People should always look forward and not rest on their laurels. Failure to keep up with the development of the times is the most fatal thing.” “I won’t play tricks on you. It’s useless to say these things. It’s better to give me an explanation.” “It’s not impossible to explain, but Mr. Xu should first explain to me how you know all this. After all, the content of the negotiation is top secret.” “Mr. Lu, there’s no need to guess. It was Gaoyuan Capital’s investment manager who contacted us.” Someone couldn’t wait to jump out. Originally, I wanted to show off in front of Mr. Xu. As a result, Mr. Xu’s face turned dark. This bastard, is he an idiot? What can be said and what can’t be said! I don’t even know this! “Puff…” As soon as these words came out, Lu Yiming couldn’t help laughing. No brains. Just like that, you’re still fighting with yourself? Why did I lose to these people in my previous life? “Mr. Xu, you mean Wang Lan from Gaoyuan Capital, right?” “So what?” “Boss Xu, don’t you know about the new personnel appointments? Wang Lan from Gaoyuan Capital is now the logistics director of our group.” Mr. Xu: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, Mr. Xu really doesn’t know about this matter. The head of the logistics department is just a middle level cadre. There is no need for Mr. Xu to pay attention to this. The key point is that the people below can definitely solve this matter, so it was not reported at all. This is such a misunderstanding. Mr. Xu was completely dumbfounded. “10 million for 10% of the shares, Mr. Xu. It seems that they are right to say that you are short sighted. You don’t understand the handheld wireless phone system at all. Forget it. It’s useless to say anything today. Coincidentally, the PHS project has been approved. The next week will be a time to witness miracles. I hope Mr. Xu can still be so confident at the joint meeting next week.” Lu Yiming sneered. Ignorance is the most terrifying thing. As for next week, that’s the real surprise. “Mr. Lu, there is something else. Can we discuss it?” The meeting was almost over here. However, Mr. Zhang, who was in charge of the logistics department, jumped out at this moment. Chapter 113 Funny Father and Son “Mr. Zhang, is there anything else?” Lu Yiming looked puzzled. Your master has shut up, why are you jumping out and barking now? “Boss Lu, your investment department has received 30 million yuan, can you give some of it to us? We are almost out of money.” Mr. Zhang is really thick skinned. All the money needs to be brought to the joint meeting. Those who don’t know the situation would really think that Lu Yiming is in charge of the Finance Department. “I don’t have money, so I’ll ask the finance department for help.” “The group’s finance department doesn’t have any money either.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… This is totally shameless. Just look at the faces of the senior executives around you and you will know. The corners of their mouths kept twitching, and even their father covered his forehead with his hands, unable to bear it. “Mr. Zhang, are you sure you want to borrow it from us?” After receiving the 30 million, Lu Yiming immediately invested the money in advertising. But there are indeed quite a few left. But I didn’t expect that Mr. Zhang would actually dare to speak. Isn’t this a handle that is delivered to your door? In fact, Mr. Zhang also has unspeakable sufferings. The logistics department was originally a department whose main work was logistical support. In other companies, the logistics department only provided material services. But in the Lu Group, the Logistics Department holds considerable power. Even when it comes to business procurement, the logistics department has the final say. Of course, with more power in hand, there will naturally be a lot of benefits. But the key is that more people are sharing it. Of course, these are secrets within a small circle. But for Mr. Zhang, it is difficult to balance the distribution of these interests. This ultimately leads to a continuous increase in purchasing prices. The company’s planning costs are rising every year. Under the current circumstances, Mr. Zhang was forced to borrow money from Lu Yiming’s investment department. Of course, Mr. Zhang also has his own little calculations. After all, my son is a friend of yours, Mr. Lu, and he usually serves you very well. Mr. Lu, you can’t just stand by and watch someone die. There was no expression on Lu Yiming’s face. In my heart I was cursing. Where’s the face? This is so shameless. You instigated your son to set a trap for yourself. Do you really think you can’t find evidence? I’ve been very busy recently. Now that I have some free time, I want to do something to you. And you even dare to ask me for money. “Mr. Lu, Uncle Zhang never mistreats you, does he?” The dignified Lu Group has used all its connections. It seems that there are indeed big problems with my father’s daily management. “Okay, Mr. Zhang, please prepare a report and come over. We can always squeeze in some.” Lu Yiming nodded, which was considered as his agreement. As for whether Mr. Zhang will regret it at that time, sorry, that is not something Lu Yiming can control. After the meeting, Li Li followed Lu Yiming back to the office. “No, why did you really agree to that shameless old man?” Li Li was furious. It was usually difficult for her to go to the logistics department to apply for office supplies, but now she had the nerve to ask for it. Did she really think she was a big shot? “Why rush? You won’t be able to jump around for a few days.” Lu Yiming, however, had an indifferent expression on his face. Although Mr. Zhang seemed smart on the surface, his mind was actually full of confusion. If I really had the ability, I wouldn’t have been placed in the logistics department by General Manager Xu. It would be fine if you just follow Mr. Xu. At least if something really happens, Mr. Xu won’t ignore it. But this guy was actually jumping back and forth in public. Do you think you can tie up your own big one? Little did he know that he had completely offended everyone by doing this. And he’s being clever. Lu Yiming was speechless when he thought about it. “By the way, have you made any progress on the matter I asked you to investigate last time?” “I checked and used a lot of connections.” “What’s the result?” “You guessed it right.” Speaking of this, Li Li was also speechless. As the saying goes, if you are not from the same family, you will not enter the same door. Zhang Zun and his father are birds of a feather. “I bought it at a small shop downtown.” “What shop?” Lu Yiming was confused. This kind of thing could be sold openly? “What else could it be? A sex toy store.” Li Li’s face turned slightly red. I didn’t expect this would be the result. This Zhang Zun is quite outrageous, that thing is clearly prohibited. But this guy actually dared to buy it in a small shop. What happened was that what I bought turned out to be a fake. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “I have already reported it. The Market Supervision Bureau and the police are jointly enforcing the law. The store has confessed. That stuff is not ‘obedient water’ at all. The store owner is not so brave. But it does have a calming effect. Drinking too much will make you fall into a coma.” “So, what do you mean?” “It must be a coincidence.” Although Li Li didn’t know the specific situation, judging from the results of the investigation. Zhang Zun was cheated by the store owner. Zhang and his son did set up a trap. This scheme was planned by Mr. Zhang. As for why it was Su Rongrong. It was by chance that Mr. Zhang learned of Su Rongrong’s true identity. But Mr. Zhang’s motive for plotting against Lu Yiming is still unclear. “Is there any other evidence?” Lu Yiming needs evidence, not speculation. “Yes, there is.” When it comes to evidence, Li Li’s expression suddenly becomes a little strange. “What’s going on?” “I… Never mind. You should just watch it yourself.” Li Li took out a copy from her office bag and handed it to Lu Yiming. 【Aishang Sex Toys Store】 An invoice? Looking up, it was Lu Group. The purchased products are generally labeled [Supplies]. The price is 338 yuan. Lu Yiming looked confused. Could it be that… “Ahem, I’ve already checked. Zhang Zun’s spending in the store was 338.” “you mean?” “Yes, he issued an invoice, and Mr. Zhang even included it in last month’s expense report.” At this time, Lu Yiming and Li Li looked at each other. clown. This father and son are absolutely a treasure. I don’t know what you are thinking? This has become a habit of taking advantage of the company. “Mr. Lu, does this matter need to be reported?” “Not for now, I’ll handle it myself.” Lu Yiming never expected this to be the result. The evidence was right next to him. I wonder what kind of expression Mr. Xu would have if he really understood the stupid teammates around him? It looks like the day of reckoning is not far away. At this moment, Lu Yiming’s cell phone rang. [Mr. Lu, my mother was successfully discharged from the hospital. I want to invite you to dinner. I wonder when you are free. Cheng Xiao] If I remember correctly, this was the first time Cheng Xiao sent me a text message. Should I treat myself to a meal, or should I treat her in my aunt’s name? It seems that what I did still made Cheng’s mother suspicious. But it doesn’t matter. It’s better to make things clear like this. After all, Lu Yiming doesn’t want to hurt Cheng Xiao again in this life. “You go ahead and do your work.” Lu Yiming waved his hand and asked Li Li to leave the office. [Tonight is OK] After Lu Yiming replied to the message, he returned to his work. Chapter 114 Friendship between Classmates tonight? Cheng Xiao didn’t expect Lu Yiming to reply to her text message so quickly. And it was chosen tonight. this… “What’s wrong?” My daughter has been absent minded. In order to facilitate communication, the company specially provided Cheng Xiao with a mobile phone. In Cheng’s mother’s opinion, this is definitely a rare thing. In the past, few homes in the alleys had telephones. Generally, people use the public telephone at the convenience store at the entrance of the alley. I remember last year, Wang Qiang, who bought seafood, bought a pager, which made everyone envious. Wang Qiang hung the pager around his waist and walked with a breeze. Others say that Wang Qiang has become rich. But now, my daughter even uses a mobile phone. “Mom, Mr. Lu said he’s free tonight.” “Then why are you still standing there? Hurry up, let’s go to the vegetable market.” Upon learning that Lu Yiming would come in the evening, Cheng’s mother stood up immediately. But I had been lying in the hospital for too long, and when I stood up suddenly, I felt a little dizzy. Fortunately, Cheng Xiao was quick to act and quickly supported the staggering Cheng’s mother. “Mom, you take a rest, I’ll go buy some groceries.” To be honest, Cheng Xiao hasn’t gotten to know the surrounding environment yet and doesn’t even know where the vegetable market is. “Okay, don’t be so stingy, buy more meat.” For Cheng’s mother, a good meal must include meat. As for seafood, Cheng’s mother didn’t even dare to think about it. Cheng Xiaoxiao nodded and went out with the basket. I asked the security guard and found out the exact location of the vegetable market. The supporting facilities nearby are very comprehensive, and the vegetable market is just two streets away. I have to say that Lu Yiming put a lot of thought into his choice. An hour later, Cheng Xiao returned with a full load. With a basket full of dishes, today is undoubtedly more grand than Chinese New Year for the Cheng family. “Mom, let’s make pickled pork with preserved vegetables tonight. I just checked and the bamboo shoots are very fresh and tender.” Yan Du Xian is Cheng Xiao’s favorite. It’s a pity that ever since my mother fell ill, the family’s expenses have been so high that I haven’t bought it for a long time. Cheng Xiao was busy in the kitchen all afternoon. Cheng’s mother sat on the sofa, looking at the clock hanging on the wall from time to time. It’s already half past five, why hasn’t Lu Yiming come yet? Could something happen suddenly? Such a big boss must be very busy at ordinary times. “Xiaoxiao, how about you go to the door to greet them?” Cheng Xiao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Why does it feel like my mother is more nervous than I am? “No need, Mr. Lu knows him.” “You girl, this is the most basic courtesy.” Cheng’s mother scolded Cheng Xiao, saying that the girl became more and more ignorant as she grew older. Ten minutes later, the doorbell rang. “Xiaoxiao, go open the door.” Mother Cheng tidied her clothes. Although Cheng’s mother is getting thinner due to long term illness, you can still vaguely see what she looked like when she was young. When Cheng’s mother was young, she was a famous beauty. Cheng Xiao’s looks are completely inherited from her mother. The clothes he was wearing were not branded, but they were washed cleanly. “Mr. Lu.” Cheng Xiao hurriedly opened the door, but when she saw the large and small gift boxes in Lu Yiming’s hands, she was a little stunned. “What are you standing there for? Give me a hand.” “Oh, okay.” Cheng Xiao finally reacted and quickly took part of the gift box. American ginseng, protein powder. They are all precious nutritional supplements. These health products can only be purchased in high end stores and are very expensive. I remember when my mother first fell ill, Cheng Xiao worked odd jobs for a month and bought her a can of protein powder, but her mother was reluctant to drink it. The total cost of these health products would probably be several thousand. “Boss Lu, I…I can’t accept it.” “It’s not for you. Auntie just got out of the hospital and needs to supplement her nutrition. I asked the doctor and he said that only by strengthening her nutrition can she guarantee the future treatment.” “But, I…” These nutritional supplements are too expensive for Cheng Xiao. “Xiao Lu, you are here.” At this time, Cheng’s mother also staggered over. I was also stunned when I saw the health products piled up at the door. this… There are so many things that I can’t finish them all. “Auntie, congratulations on your discharge from the hospital.” “It’s an old problem, and I don’t know when it will end. Xiaoxiao told me everything that happened before. Xiaolu, if it weren’t for you, I really don’t know how much grievances our Xiaoxiao would have suffered. It’s all because of my uselessness as a mother. I…” “Auntie, today is a happy day, let’s not talk about this. Come, I’ll help you sit on the sofa and talk.” In the previous life, Cheng Xiao’s mother died early, and Lu Yiming had no chance. But from just a few words, Lu Yiming already felt the love that Cheng’s mother had for her child. No wonder, after marrying Cheng Xiao in the previous life, Cheng Xiao would cry like a tearful baby every year on Cheng’s mother’s death anniversary. Lu Yiming didn’t understand in his previous life, but at this moment, Lu Yiming seemed to truly understand Cheng Xiao. The tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop, the son wants to support his parents but they are no longer there. This is the thing that children regret the most. “Xiao Lu, our Xiao Xiao is lucky to have met you, otherwise…” As soon as they sat down on the sofa, Cheng’s mother grabbed Lu Yiming’s hand. For Cheng’s mother, apart from being grateful, she didn’t know how to repay Lu Yiming. “Auntie, Xiaoxiao and I are classmates. I can’t just stand by and watch when my classmate is in trouble.” Cheng Xiao brought Lu Yiming a cup of tea. Continue to be busy in the kitchen. However, Cheng Xiao had been secretly eavesdropping on the conversation between Lu Yiming and his mother. For Cheng Xiao, perhaps she had some expectations in her heart. “Is it just a relationship between classmates?” Mother Cheng looked into Lu Yiming’s eyes. As a person who had experienced this, Mother Cheng had the ability to judge people. Lu Yiming did not expect that Cheng’s mother would be so straightforward. But when I think back to my previous life, Cheng Xiao was hurt so deeply by me. Lu Yiming nodded subconsciously. “Yes, we are classmates. You can rest assured, Auntie. I definitely don’t have any improper thoughts.” “bump.” Before Cheng’s mother could answer, a loud noise was heard from the kitchen. “Xiaoxiao, what’s wrong?” “No…it’s okay. I accidentally dropped it on the floor when I opened the pot lid just now.” “Do you want me to come in and help?” “No, just help me accompany my mother, and we will be able to eat soon.” Cheng Xiao refused Lu Yiming’s help. It’s just because Cheng Xiao is a little embarrassed at the moment. I don’t know why, but Cheng Xiao’s eyes were red at this moment. Classmates, is the friendship between us really just classmates? But why do I feel empty inside? Why do I suddenly want to cry? Although Cheng Xiao is the campus belle of Shanghai University, and although Cheng Xiao has been beautiful since she was young. However, Cheng Xiao’s love life is like a blank sheet of paper. Perhaps, even at this time, Cheng Xiao didn’t know that the seeds of love had already been planted in her heart. However, before this seed blossomed and bore fruit, it had already… Lu Yiming: In this life, I can give Cheng Xiao everything, but the only thing I can’t give her is love. Chapter 115: The tangled mess “Xiaoxiao specially prepared this pickled pork with preserved vegetables. Try it. It was Xiaoxiao’s favorite dish when she was a child.” The moment Xiaoxiao brought out the soup, the unique aroma of pickled pork with preserved vegetables filled the living room. Pickled pork with preserved vegetables. Lu Yiming was very familiar to him. In his previous life, Cheng Xiao’s favorite thing was this. Whenever she is in a good mood, Cheng Xiao will cook by herself. Mother Cheng looked at Cheng Xiao worriedly, and only felt relieved when she found that there was no extra expression on her daughter’s face. It seems that my daughter has adjusted her mentality. What a pity! Cheng’s mother originally thought that it was a romantic relationship between a man and a woman, but the result was completely beyond her expectations. “Be careful with the heat.” Cheng Xiao served Lu Yiming a bowl of soup and gave him some instructions. It still tastes like the previous life. For Lu Yiming, it was all very familiar. “Don’t worry, Auntie. I have asked someone to contact the hospital. Once a kidney source is available, we can match it and perform the surgery as soon as possible.” In the previous life, Cheng Xiao lost her parents prematurely. Lu Yiming saw Cheng Xiao’s pain. Now that there is a chance to save Cheng’s mother, Lu Yiming will naturally try his best. “Xiao Lu, I’m sorry to have troubled you.” Mother Cheng wanted to speak, but she didn’t know what to say. There is no love without reason. As an adult who has seen through everything, Cheng’s mother has experienced all the ups and downs in the world since she became ill. Even his brothers and sisters avoided him. As for Lu Yiming. Mother Cheng really couldn’t guess what else could attract Lu Yiming. I originally thought that Lu Yiming liked my daughter. But now Lu Yiming has clarified that he has no improper thoughts about Xiaoxiao. Thinking of this, Cheng’s mother looked up at her daughter with even more worry. Cheng Xiao was obviously unhappy today. This kid is clearly in love. It was also my fault. I had rashly invited Lu Yiming to visit me when I clearly did not understand the relationship between them. The daughter was obviously hurt. The atmosphere right now is really weird. When faced with her favorite pickled pork with preserved vegetables, Cheng Xiao didn’t even touch it, but kept stirring the rice in the bowl with chopsticks. “Auntie, I have something else to do later, so I’ll leave now.” After drinking a bowl of soup and eating a bowl of rice, Lu Yiming stood up and said goodbye. “You’re leaving now? Didn’t Auntie treat you well enough?” “No, this bowl of pickled pork with preserved vegetables is the most unforgettable thing I have ever tasted.” “Okay then. If you want to drink next time, just tell Xiaoxiao.” Lu Yiming left anyway. At this moment, Cheng Xiao felt that she had lost the most important thing. “Xiaoxiao.” Looking at Cheng Xiao’s back, Cheng’s mother was a little worried. After Lu Yiming left, Cheng Xiao didn’t say anything again, but was busy cleaning up the mess. “Mom, don’t worry, I’m fine.” Forced smile. In order not to worry her mother, Cheng Xiao forced a smile. “Xiao Lu is a good kid. What a pity. Xiao Xiao, you need to learn how to let go.” Cheng’s mother knew that her daughter was feeling bad. Xiao Lu was indeed very good, so good that he was too perfect, even to the point that Cheng’s mother felt it was a little unreal. “I know, Mom, I know.” Cheng Xiao, who had been enduring it, finally had tears in her eyes. Yes, why should I let my imagination run wild? What on earth am I expecting? I am not worthy of it at all. Lu Yiming was high above, and I could only look up to him. But I fantasized about standing next to Lu Yiming. From the very beginning, I was wrong. But… But why should you be so good to yourself? Why leave yourself with illusions? At this moment, Cheng Xiao was confused. “Silly child, feelings are hard to explain. Also, Xiao Lu is a good kid. He helped us, so we should learn to be grateful.” “Mom, I will, don’t worry.” With the education she received since childhood, Cheng Xiao is naturally sensible and will not act foolishly. After wiping the corners of her eyes, Cheng Xiao smiled again. “Mom, don’t worry. I will work hard. You are right. Maybe Lu Yiming values my ability. I should not let him down. I will go back to work tomorrow. Don’t worry.” Cheng Xiao seemed so serious at this moment. But no one knows what is really in his heart. Over the years, Cheng Xiao has always learned to hide her emotions. No one can guess. Lu Yiming left Cheng Xiao’s house, but did not leave immediately. Instead, he lingered at the entrance of the building for a long time. It seems that I have hurt Cheng Xiao. I clearly wanted to give Cheng Xiao a better ending in this life. Should I go up and explain it clearly? But I’m afraid that the more I talk, the more confusing it will become. “Forget it, let’s just chill it out for now.” Lu Yiming sighed. That’s how feelings are, the more you try to sort them out, the more confused they become. Even if he were to live his life again, Lu Yiming seemed to have no better solution. In the end, Lu Yiming started the car and drove away from the community. Lu Yiming tossed and turned very restlessly that night. My mind was filled with details of my interactions with Cheng Xiao in my previous life. I have already hurt the other person deeply. In this life, I must never repeat the same mistakes. I believe that the sadness is only temporary. Maybe I should learn to let go. It’s dawn. Lu Yiming, who had not slept all night, looked irritated. The more you care, the more confused you become. It’s a tangled mess that can’t be sorted out, and there’s a special feeling in my heart. “Lu Yiming, you still need to take a break. There is always a lot of work to do in the studio.” Li Li was holding a cup of coffee with a look of worry on her face. When Li Li saw Lu Yiming early this morning, she was really shocked. These deep dark circles are really too ostentatious. Li Li really didn’t expect that Lu Yiming was so passionate about his career. It completely overturned the image of Lu Yiming in her mind. In his own mind, the original Lu Yiming was just a heartless playboy. But the more she got to know it, the more Li Li found that she couldn’t understand it. From the national debt incident to today’s PHS business. Lu Yiming’s abilities were fully demonstrated. Not only did he seize the fleeting opportunity, but every step was just right. Today, Lu Yiming even holds the lifeblood of the telecommunications group in his hands. It all seems like a dream. In fact, during this period of time, Lu Yiming was an omnipotent boss in Li Li’s mind. But when they met today, Li Li discovered that even the omnipotent Lu Yiming would worry. Today is the day when Xiaolingtong is released. It seems that Mr. Lu can’t sleep because of this matter. That’s right, so much was invested in the early stage, plus there was overwhelming advertising. Success or failure depends on this one move. Not to mention the investment department, the attention of all the senior executives of the group is now focused on the Xiaolingtong project. Can Lu Yiming continue to write his own legend? The importance of today is self evident. At this moment, Li Li had a lot of thoughts in her mind. I wonder how Li Li would feel if she knew that Lu Yiming’s dark circles were all caused by his relationship problems? Chapter 116 Success or Failure Depends on Today “Get ready and go to the outlets in the city in the morning.” “good.” Originally, these things should have been asked to be prepared by Cheng Xiao. But Lu Yiming was afraid that Cheng Xiao would not be able to get out of it for a while, so he asked Li Li to take charge. To be honest, Li Li was stunned at first, but she quickly reacted. What’s happening? How did I become your assistant, Lu Yiming? Could it be that Cheng Xiao made some mistakes in her work, which made Lu Yiming unhappy? It shouldn’t be. Li Li saw Cheng Xiao’s performance. Not only was all the work done in an orderly manner, but a lot of extra work was also completed. Li Li is quite satisfied with Cheng Xiao. Li Li, who was leaving Lu Yiming’s office, happened to meet Cheng Xiao and pulled her into the rest area. “Sister Lily, is there something wrong?” “Why are you like this too?” Li Li looked at Cheng Xiao’s dark circles and looked confused. “also?” “Hey, that’s not the point. I understand that young people work very hard, but they also need to know when to relax. Don’t be like me. It’s not worth it if you ruin your health.” As someone who has been through this, Li Li shared some experiences. “I’m sorry, Sister Lily, I just…” Just what? Just because of Lu Yiming’s words, I couldn’t sleep all night? I can’t even say that. “Okay, I know even without you telling me that the Xiaolingtong app is about to be released. It’s normal for you to be worried. Mr. Lu is also worried. By the way, between you and Mr. Lu…” “Sister Lily, there is nothing between us.” Before Li Li finished speaking, Cheng Xiao immediately explained. Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Do you know what it means to try to cover up one’s own guilt? I haven’t said anything yet, why are you in such a hurry to explain? Everyone in the investment department knows that you, Cheng Xiao, are Mr. Lu’s exclusive lover. However, this time, that’s not what I meant. “I want to ask, did you make any mistakes at work? Did Mr. Lu catch you in any way?” “ah?!” Judging from Cheng Xiao’s expression, there should be no such reason. Now Li Li was even more depressed. What was this all for? “That’s weird, why did Mr. Lu ask me to do it?” “Deal with what?” 10 minutes later. After understanding the whole story, Cheng Xiao knocked on the door of Lu Yiming’s office. “Enter.” “Mr. Lu.” “Why are you here? Auntie just came back. After you settle down…” “Boss Lu, this is my job.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… There is anger in his words. Could it be that love turns into hate? Well, until this moment, Lu Yiming started to have wild thoughts again. After all, Cheng Xiao in her previous life dared to love and hate. “Boss Lu, are you dissatisfied with my work?” “Of course not.” “Then why did you give my job to Vice President Li?” “Sister Lily is looking for you?” “Mr. Lu, as your assistant, I will not bring anything other than work into my work. Please trust my professionalism.” At this moment, Cheng Xiao was suppressing her emotions other than work. With a cold face, this stubborn little appearance is exactly the same as in the previous life. “Don’t let your imagination run wild.” “Boss Lu, your arrangement doesn’t allow me to think too much.” “You… huh… I understand. Then hurry up and get ready. We’ll be leaving in half an hour.” “good.” I have to say that once Cheng Xiao gets into working mode, she will give her 100%. Seeing Cheng Xiao turn around and leave the office, Lu Yiming breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that I underestimated Cheng Xiao. In her previous life, Cheng Xiao was like a canary, and after getting married, she was “locked” at home by herself. I never thought that Cheng Xiao would have such a side in the workplace. It seems that it was indeed my own problem. I underestimated Cheng Xiao. Half an hour later, a business car was waiting at the gate of Lu Group. Lu Yiming, Li Li, and Cheng Xiao got into the car one after another. “Boss Lu, the first stop is the Telecom business hall on Beijing West Road. This is currently the largest Telecom business hall in the city. It has always been at the forefront of the city in terms of customer traffic and is also one of the business halls that Telecom mainly promotes PHS.” “The second stop is scheduled at Xiaoximen. According to our previous market research, the business halls of the three telecommunications companies at Xiaoximen have the smallest turnover in the city. If the PHS business can be developed at Xiaoximen, the whole city will be completely revitalized .” I have to say that Cheng Xiao arranged everything perfectly in such a short time. These two places alone can capture the epitome of the Magic City market. No wonder Li Li is so optimistic about Cheng Xiao. “Let’s go.” After listening to Cheng Xiao’s brief report, Lu Yiming nodded. It seems that I was really overly suspicious. Cheng Xiao at work is definitely trustworthy. It seems that I still don’t know Cheng Xiao well enough. And at this moment, investing in Gaoyuan. “Boss Su, it has been arranged.” Today is also a very important day for Gaoyuan Capital. Of course, more pressure is on Su Rongrong. Investing in the Xiaolingtong project was Su Rongrong’s first investment after she was parachuted into Gaoyuan Investment. Success or not is very important to Su Rongrong. If successful, Su Rongrong will be able to gain a firm foothold in Gaoyuan Capital. Once she fails, even if Su Rongrong has Su Yunchang’s support, there will still be criticism. After all, because of Su Rongrong, Gaoyuan Capital lost Wang Lan, the queen of the investment world. If the Xiaolingtong project fails, it will be a heavy blow to Su Rongrong and Mr. Zhang. Su Rongrong’s team was already busy early in the morning. Su Rongrong specially sent someone to connect with the telecommunications group. Be sure to get first hand information. But even so, Su Rongrong was still a little worried. Finally decided to go there in person. “Boss Su, we have identified three locations. Please have a look.” The three locations are not far from the company and are always crowded with people on weekdays. “no.” Su Rongrong just took a look and threw the selected point aside. There is no prominence. Although the flow of people at these locations is good, they are not representative enough. “Here, and here, go to these two places.” In the end, it was Su Rongrong who finalized the location personally. 20 minutes later, Su Rongrong’s convoy set off from Gaoyuan Capital. Apart from the 30 million investment, Gaoyuan Capital also spent a lot of connections on the Xiaolingtong project. Of course, the Su family contributed the most. For Su Rongrong’s first battle. The Su family has invested too much. “Boss Su, implementation report, the first network access business has been completed.” Ten minutes after the business hall opened, the network access license for the first Xiaolingtong business was successfully obtained. “yse!” “Very good!” Team cheers. At this time, Su Rongrong’s brows were still furrowed. The first stroke was nothing. What Su Rongrong wanted to look at was the overall situation. Chapter 117 Sharp Contrast Telecom Beijing West Road Business Hall. A commercial vehicle was parked at the intersection for a long time. “Mr. Lu, should we go down and take a look?” “Are you sure you can squeeze in?” “this…” Well, there were crowds of people at the door. I’ve just sent someone down to investigate. Basically, they come here to handle PHS services. I have to say that the early advertising effects were remarkable. Zheng XX has a very strong ability to attract money in the mainland. Especially with the explosion of popularity of Young and Dangerous, Zheng XX’s rise was even more outrageous. Become very famous. Looking at it now, Mr. Lu spent 5 million to sign Zheng XX, which is definitely an investment that can only make money. Unexpectedly, Mr. Lu also has amazing talent in this area. “It’s still a little slow.” “No, it’s packed.” Li Li was speechless. Judging from this scene, the Xiaolingtong project could not be more successful! In this day and age, getting a PHS as soon as you join the Internet is absolutely unimaginable for ordinary people. Mobile phones are a must have for successful people. Apart from anything else, the surplus value brought by a mobile phone is immeasurable. For ordinary people, BB is the top configuration. But now, you can have the same functions as a mobile phone for the price of a pager. What’s more, the appearance of Xiaolingtong is much better looking than most brick sized phones on the market. Although there are some limitations and shortcomings. But once it reaches the psychological price of ordinary people, who wouldn’t want to try it? The vast majority of the team are working people between the ages of 20 and 50, who have become the main purchasing force at this time. But even with such a hot scene, Lu Yiming was still not satisfied. Isn’t this too Versailles? “It’s not a problem of purchasing power, but the process and time are too long.” I have been observing for nearly half an hour. There are more and more people at the door, but what about the people coming out? From Lu Yiming’s observation, there were less than ten people holding pagers. Only ten orders were processed in half an hour? This is obviously the result of lack of business proficiency. Perhaps the telecommunications company itself did not anticipate such a popular scene, and the shortage of staff caused the sales staff to be in a panic. This is obviously unreasonable. Similarly, Su Rongrong seemed to have observed this as well. However, Su Rongrong was more straightforward and called Gao Yan. “Rongrong, why did you think of calling me?” Gao Wei was in a good mood. Yes, this time, Gao Wei made the right bet. Not only in Shanghai, but business halls all over the country were packed with people at this time. The Xiaolingtong service became an instant hit once it was launched. This is definitely a timely help for telecommunications groups that are eager to break into new businesses. In the past, we could only watch helplessly as China Mobile and China Unicom snatched away customers. This time I can finally feel proud of myself. Early in the morning, I received a call from the top leader. On the phone, the top leader highly praised the Xiaolingtong service. Of course, the focus of praise is naturally Gao Yan, who introduced this project. If nothing unexpected happens, Gao Yan can already secure the position of future top leader thanks to the popularity of the Xiaolingtong business. Gao Wei was naturally very excited. The higher your position, the more contribution you will make to the family, and your status in the family will naturally rise. “Uncle, the on site office capacity is insufficient.” “Um?” “I’m on site now. The staff are not experienced in their work and some customers have already started to complain.” Xiaolingtong has a good reputation, but we cannot lose customers due to business reasons. “I have also noticed this. In this case, I will ask all business halls to make urgent improvements. We do have an early warning plan.” I have to say that Su Rongrong’s warning was very timely. Things like a big store bullying customers should not happen to Telecom. After all, for Telecom, it was not easy to open up the market by relying on the Xiaolingtong project. We can’t destroy the Great Wall ourselves. “I’m glad my uncle understands. I’ll hang up now.” Seeing that her warning had worked, Su Rongrong stopped talking nonsense, hung up the phone, and started observing again. As for Telecom, all employees on vacation were recalled within an hour. Even staff from the headquarters were sent to each business hall to provide support. All workstations are fully open. But even so, it was no longer able to cope with the heated situation. “Mr. Lu, it seems that Telecom has done its best.” The key point is that Xiaolingtong became popular too suddenly. Even though all of Telecom’s business outlets were fully open, they were still unable to fully respond. “Don’t worry, there is a backup plan.” Lu Yiming smiled. He had expected such a scene. In this case, telecommunications alone is not enough. After all, they are employed by the government, so slacking off cannot be completely avoided. At this time, the advantages of self employed individuals can be reflected. The pilot projects for self employed individuals are Haiyang and Zhang Bing. The two brothers followed Lu Yiming’s advice. He directly bought the store just across the wall from Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. The decoration didn’t cost much. After all, it is just a store selling PHS. Just a counter and chairs are enough. The two brothers took 1,000 PHS phones from Lu Yiming. The price is 499. Plus the rebate for network access permission. You can earn 300 yuan for each unit sold. These two brothers invested all their savings into it. I was very nervous during this period. After all, for the two brothers, whether they can succeed is still an unknown. The reason why they were willing to believe Lu Yiming was because of the confidence given by Liang Qian. But today, when the door opened, there was no one there. There were only two or three cats, big and small, and they just looked but didn’t buy anything. At this moment, the two of them felt their hearts turn cold. Could it be that we will suffer another Waterloo this time? Finally, a passing customer pointed out the problem. “Other telecom companies give away PHS when you sign up for the network, but you have to pay for it here. Only a fool would buy it.” Hearing this, Haiyang could no longer sit still. Isn’t Lu Yiming digging his own grave? People give away PHS for free, but now I have one that costs 499? Indeed, as the customer said, only fools would come to your store. “Don’t worry.” Zhang Bing grabbed the angry Haiyang. “How can we not be anxious? This is our last hope.” “Maybe there is a chance of a turnaround. A chance? What kind of a turnaround? We were tricked by Lu Yiming.” But why would Lu Yiming want to pit himself for no reason? Just because of Liang Qian? Shameless, despicable, villain! Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Aqiu…” Who is this, talking about me? For the entire morning, Haiyang and Zhang Bing’s store didn’t make a single sale. It is in sharp contrast with the bustling telecommunications business halls. For this, the ocean smashed its own teacup. Chapter 118 Reversal The ocean lamented countless times throughout the whole morning. If Zhang Bing hadn’t stopped him, he would have gone to settle the score with Lu Yiming long ago. Now, my only 1 million yuan has been invested in it, and I don’t know how to face my family when I go back. Growing up, their family has always viewed them as having high expectations but low skills. After working in the business for so many years, I ended up losing everything. “No, I can’t swallow this. I must have an explanation.” The ocean couldn’t help it. He stood up with a bang. This time, Zhang Bing did not try to stop him. Zhang Bing knew that if he continued to try to stop him, his brother would probably suffocate to death. But just as Haiyang walked to the door angrily, he almost bumped into Liang Qian who was rushing over. “Ah…what are you doing!?” Looking at Haiyang’s angry face, Liang Qian was very puzzled. “Sister Qian, we’ve all been fooled by Lu Yiming.” Facing Liang Qian, Haiyang suppressed his anger. Liang Qian cannot be blamed for this matter. Although it was Liang Qian who introduced Lu Yiming to her, Liang Qian also meant well. The ocean can still make this distinction. “No, what did Lu Yiming do to you?” “Sister Qian, don’t worry about this matter. I have to deal with him today.” When the ocean is angry, no one can persuade him. “Ocean, can you please speak properly?” When Liang Qian learned that Haiyang was going to find trouble with Lu Yiming, she naturally grabbed Haiyang. Zhang Bing felt even more sad when he saw this scene. Even at this time, he is still protecting Lu Yiming. This shows the other party’s position in Liang Qian’s mind. “Sister Qian, please move aside to avoid accidental injury.” Once the ocean is high, even ten cows cannot pull it back. Being able to have a good conversation with Liang Qian here is already giving Liang Qian enough face. “Ocean, don’t mess around!” Seeing that Haiyang might hurt Liang Qian, Zhang Bing quickly stood up and grabbed his brother. Even if Liang Qian doesn’t have him in her heart, Zhang Bingye can’t just watch Liang Qian get hurt. “You… Hey!” Haiyang was so angry that he kept stamping his feet. Seeing his brother’s firm attitude, he could only squat aside in a depressed mood. “Zhang Bing, tell me, what’s going on?” Unable to find the answer in the ocean, Liang Qian could only look at Zhang Bing. “It’s a small matter. We can handle it ourselves.” “No, it’s already this late, and you’re still hiding this for Lu Yiming. Man, we’ve been tricked, don’t you know? There’s no chance of turning things around!” Seeing that Zhang Bing was still unwilling to speak, Haiyang became really anxious. “Okay, if you don’t say anything, I will. Sister Qian, Mr. Lu you introduced is nothing at all. You say, if we listened to him, we opened the store, decorated it, purchased goods, and even set the price. Wouldn’t we be in trouble? But what about this guy? He is playing tricks on us. You don’t know that this time the PHS is sold nationwide. As long as you join the network, you will get a free PHS, but we have to buy it for 499. Tell me, if it were you, what would you choose?” Zhang Bing told all his grievances in one breath. Don’t bully people like this. Although the two brothers did offend Lu Yiming in the beginning, they lowered their attitudes after knowing Lu Yiming’s identity. It can’t be said that he admitted his mistake, but he still treated us to a meal and apologized. This Lu Yiming is a smiling tiger. They kept saying they were giving the two a chance, but what happened?! “Did you misunderstand?” “Sister Qian, the facts are all in front of us. What do you think we misunderstood?” Haiyang really didn’t expect that his childhood friend would say such a thing. Haiyang finally understood that Liang Qian was just bewitched by her beauty. “Zhang Bing, what did I say? Look, look for yourself!” Zhang Bing looked angry. “Bingzi, you know my character. If it is really Lu Yiming who has cheated you, I will be responsible for all your losses.” In order to prove for Lu Yiming, Zhang Qian took the risk. Liang Qian knows her naughty brother best. Either you don’t agree, or once you agree, it’s absolutely reliable. There must be some misunderstanding. “You… Hey!” What else can the ocean say? Liang Qian has already said this. “Okay, wait a little longer.” “Okay, Sister Qian, for your sake, I won’t go and settle accounts with that bastard.” Liang Qian was wholeheartedly protecting Lu Yiming, and Haiyang also looked helpless. “Okay, pick me a PHS first, with a nice color.” Liang Qian came today for convenience. Firstly, it was to take care of her childhood friend’s business, and secondly, it was to get a good start. “Sister Qian, Telecom is free, why are you spending this money?” “Whatever you say, I’m happy to do it.” “Okay, take it as you like, it won’t be charged to you.” Although not a single PHS was sold in the whole morning, Haiyang still demonstrated the generosity of a northern man. To his own people, Haiyang is extremely generous despite being poor. “Hit me in the face, didn’t you?” “No, I just…” This is not the end of the sentence. I saw a guy running into the store in a hurry. “Do you still have this little PHS?” “No buddy, why are you back again?” Of course, Haiyang recognized the guy who was in a hurry. It was this guy who told him in the morning that China Telecom would give away PHS for free. “Don’t worry about that. I just want to ask you, can your PHS be connected to the Internet?” “sure.” “Okay, then you can get me one, no, two.” When the man heard that he could join the network, he became instantly excited. Just hold up two fingers and ask for two. “No, buddy, we don’t give away PHS here. They cost 499 each.” “Nonsense, I know, give me two, I want them now.” Haiyang and Zhang Bing looked at each other. They really didn’t understand this guy’s tricks. It is impossible not to do business that comes to your doorstep. He immediately got busy. Two PHS phones, 998, paid in cash. The first deal was completed in less than 10 minutes. Seeing their buddy go out happily, the two brothers were really confused this time. What is going on? Why don’t you want the free stuff and come to spend money in your own store? Isn’t this a waste of money? But in the following time, the two brothers became even more confused. “It’s this store. They said they have stock.” In less than half an hour, the store went from being deserted to being packed with people. Some even lined up at the door. this?! “Boss, hurry up and give me one.” “I want three.” “I want one too!” “No, the black one is sold out.” “Then change the color. Believe in any color.” “Would you like the pink one?” “This… I want it. Who made me have a girlish heart?” A man weighing over 200 pounds using a pink pager? Buddy, are you sure you don’t need to go to the hospital to check your brain? Haiyang and Zhang Bing had been idle for the whole morning and felt like they were sick from being idle. But now, they didn’t even have time to drink a cup of tea. Chapter 119 This is the man I like “No, what’s going on?” What does it feel like to count money until your hands cramp? At this moment, Haiyang and Zhang Bing should understand this sentence very well. The PHS that costs 499 yuan each is being consumed at a very fast rate. These PHSs have all obtained network access licenses, so unlike business offices, they do not need to be activated and can be used directly. This saves a lot of trouble for customers on site. Just now Haiyang was still complaining and complaining about Lu Yiming’s insidiousness. Even though it was obvious that they couldn’t sell the products, they still asked me to go through the network access procedures in advance, which was another considerable expense. But now it seems that Lu Yiming was completely foresighted. More than 1,000 mobile phones were sold out in one afternoon. But even so, the crowd was reluctant to disperse for a long time. It wasn’t until there was no more machines left in the store that the customers, who had been waiting for a long time, left cursing. “I just asked, and the sales office’s stock is seriously insufficient.” “Oh my god, how many were sold?” “I don’t know, but our store was sold out.” You can earn 300 from one PHS, what about 1,000? 300,000. I have been doing business for so long, but I have never made such huge profits. “What do you want to say now?” Liang Qian didn’t leave. At this moment, Liang Qian, with the corners of her mouth slightly upturned, looked very proud. I know that my little brother would never betray his friends. The facts proved everything. “Sister Qian, I was judging you by my own standards. I apologize. I was short sighted.” At this moment, the ocean no longer had the previous resentment and depression. His face was already full of smiles. Fortunately, Liang Qian stopped him beforehand. Otherwise, wouldn’t he have offended the God of Wealth? “That’s good to know.” Such a business is simply appalling. Even Liang Qian was shocked. “But speaking of which, since PHS is selling so well, why does Mr. Lu only have so few in stock?” This is something that the ocean does not understand at all. Shouldn’t we quickly distribute the product while it’s popular? “Could it be that Mr. Lu himself doesn’t have the confidence?” “How could you guess what Lu Yiming was thinking?” Liang Qian snorted. Although Liang Qian didn’t understand why Lu Yiming did this, Lu Yiming must have his own ideas. My little brother is a business genius. Unique vision. “By the way, where’s my PHS?” Liang Qian suddenly remembered that she seemed to be here to support her childhood friend’s business, but… Ocean: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Zhang Bing: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Shit, I totally forgot about this. There were so many people rushing to buy it just now that almost all the samples were snatched away. “Bingzi, didn’t I just tell you to keep one?” “No, did you say that?” Zhang Bing swore that he definitely didn’t hear it, and even if he did, he probably forgot it. “I definitely did!” “I…” The two brothers stared at each other, obviously trying to shirk responsibility. As for Liang Qian, she had a sneer on her face. Well, now that you make money, you don’t take yourself too seriously, right? “Sister Qian, I was wrong.” “Sister Qian, how about I buy you a Nokia? The latest model.” When a man’s wallet is full, that gives him confidence. The two brothers who earned 300,000 yuan said that money is not a problem. “I want a PHS.” “This… Sister, we really can’t change it. Otherwise, how about we give Mr. Lu a call?” Yes, all the stock in this store is sold out. What should we do tomorrow? Are you still open for business? “snort.” The two brothers’ eyes stayed on Liang Qian, and the meaning was very clear. At this time, Sister Qian needed to step forward. Well, the two brothers are not very familiar with Lu Yiming. Besides, facts have proved that Xiaolingtong is extremely popular. This is like making money while lying down. Judging from the current situation, as long as there is goods on hand, there is no need to worry about not being able to sell them. With such a good business, doesn’t Mr. Lu know how to make money himself? I’m afraid it’s impossible to supply the two brothers with goods. “Why don’t you say it yourself?” “We don’t have the face to do that.” “So I’m shameless, right?” Liang Qian was so angry at these two that she almost laughed. Instead of keeping one for myself, he even had the nerve to ask me to ask Lu Yiming for a new one. Sure enough, once a man’s skin becomes thick, it can be used as a wall. “Sister Qian, I’m counting on you.” “Sister Qian, we will serve you like slaves for the rest of our lives and will never forget your kindness.” “Stop, that’s creepy.” These two people can say all kinds of disgusting things. However, Liang Qian was not confident at this time. After all, it was indeed a very profitable business, and she didn’t know whether Lu Yiming was willing to supply goods. At that moment, with the mentality of giving it a try, he called Lu Yiming. “Congratulations! PHS is a big hit.” “As expected.” Well, my stinky little brother is getting proud. “It’s like this, all 1,000 PHSs have been sold, so I want to ask when they will be available again?” “Tonight, still 1,000 units.” this… Liang Qian was just trying it out, but who would have thought that Lu Yiming gave her another 1,000 units without even a second thought. This is just giving money away without any hesitation. Liang Qian was stunned at this moment. “Why? Still feel it’s not enough?” “Of course not, that’s not what I meant.” “Okay, except for the largest sales departments, you have the most supply.” “Brother, how can I thank you?” “No, what’s our relationship?” Lu Yiming smiled slightly on the phone. In my previous life, when I was in trouble, you, Liang Qian, were the only one willing to lend me a hand. How could I forget this kindness? “Okay, I’m also confused. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll just pledge my love to you.” “Ahem, I’ve thought about it, how about reducing it a bit?” “roll!” Liang Qian cursed with a smile, then hung up the phone with satisfaction. It’s good that Lu Yiming hasn’t changed. Unlike those stinky men, once they succeed, they always want to show off their superiority. Liang Qian didn’t feel this at all during the conversation with Lu Yiming just now. This is the man I like. “Sister Qian, what does Mr. Lu say?” “We supply 1,000 units every day.” “Hiss… is this true?” “Sister Qian is awesome, of course, it would be even better if there were more.” “Go away, I’m giving you money, don’t you think it’s not enough?” “No, I was just saying it casually, just saying it casually.” Zhang Bing and Haiyang smiled awkwardly. Although he was joking, when comparing these two guys with Lu Yiming, the difference is obvious. My little brother is still the most reliable. “Sister Qian, do you think we should treat Mr. Lu to a good meal?” When you drink water, you should remember the person who dug the well. The men in the old city also know the rules. “Okay, now is not the right time. Lu Yiming should be very busy during this period. Let’s talk about it later.” Even without seeing it with her own eyes, Liang Qian could guess that her little brother was going to start a career, and it was going to be a big hit. Chapter 120 Is it because of her? Little Simon. “Boss Lu, even the PHS phones here have been sold out.” Cheng Xiao was very excited. It was a success, really a success. The Xiaolingtong business had achieved unprecedented success. In Shanghai, the most popular business hall sold out all the Xiaolingtong cards before noon. At 3 pm, Xiaoximen, the least popular store, also completed its planned sales. With this momentum, it would be strange if Xiaolingtong was not popular. For Cheng Xiao, this is the only project in her life that she has followed through from start to finish. Cheng Xiao naturally knew how difficult this project was. For this project, the investment department has been working day and night, and now, the clouds have finally cleared and the moon is visible. Even Cheng Xiao, who was so excited, faced Lu Yiming again. At this moment, Cheng Xiao was also dumbfounded. I couldn’t help myself. Lu Yiming had clearly already set a distance for himself. But, I always can’t help wanting to get closer. “As expected.” “Yes, Mr. Lu is right.” Cheng Xiao lowered her head, and her originally excited expression immediately dimmed a lot. I kept reminding myself in my heart. Cheng Xiao: Cheng Xiao, don’t cross the line, never. “Lu Yiming, that car has been following us on Beijing East Road.” Although Li Li was happy, she still had a keen insight. This black business car was parked at the Telecom Beijing East Road Business Hall in the morning and appeared at Xiaoximen in the afternoon. It’s just too much of a coincidence. “Let’s go say hello.” “What’s the meaning?” “Who do you think cares so much about the sales of PHS besides us?” “You mean Gaoyuan Capital?” “clever.” Lu Yiming had already spotted the black business car. It seems that the other party’s ideas coincide with mine. The business offices at Beijing East Road and Xiaoximen represent all of Shanghai. Lu Yiming opened the car door and walked towards the black business car. At this time, in the black business car. “Boss Su, it’s Boss Lu.” Su Rongrong’s assistant has been observing. When he saw Lu Yiming approaching, he was startled. Why is Mr. Lu from Lu Group here too? This is such a coincidence. Shanghai is so big, how could a car crash happen? “Normal. This bastard can certainly think of anything I can think of.” Su Rongrong seemed to be complaining, but this time, she was comparing Lu Yiming to herself. This is quite unexpected for people who know Su Rongrong. Su Rongrong seems to be graceful and elegant on weekdays, but she is actually arrogant and spoiled inside. Besides, the person Su Rongrong dislikes the most is Mr. Lu. In the past, he had never stopped expressing his disdain. But this time, he actually said that Mr. Lu’s ideas were consistent with his own. Tsk tsk… It’s true… Su Rongrong: This bastard only knows how to show off. It’s a nice suit, but he insists on unbuttoning it. Is it handsome when it’s open?! “Boss Su, Boss Lu has a great figure. He looks really stylish in his unbuttoned suit.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… The people under you have poor eyesight, this is a disease and needs to be treated. Su Rongrong’s eyes passed over Lu Yiming and stopped behind him. Su Rongrong: Li Li, special assistant to the president of Lu Group, is now the vice president of the investment department and has outstanding abilities. Hey, is that her? The next second, Su Rongrong’s pupils trembled slightly. Cheng Xiao. Su Rongrong saw Cheng Xiao following behind Lu Yiming. This bastard finally took action, right? The last time I saw Cheng Xiao was in the hospital. Unexpectedly, the two of them hooked up so quickly. “You bastard.” Su Rongrong didn’t know why, but the joy brought by the huge sales of Xiaolingtong was instantly diluted by the appearance of Cheng Xiao. “Boss Su, what did you say?” “Nothing, open the door.” In a short time, Lu Yiming was almost in front of the business car, and Su Rongrong naturally could not ignore him. The car door opened and Su Rongrong got out first. “Mr. Lu, long time no see.” “Rongrong, that’s an exaggeration.” “How come I didn’t know that Mr. Lu and I are so familiar with each other?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Sure enough, women are fickle! I don’t know who it was, but he hugged me and cried bitterly. I don’t know who it was, but he was so angry for his boyfriend that he almost turned Hong Kong upside down. I don’t even know who it was, and he almost had a fight with me on the yacht. Now, look what happened, you’ve turned against me. In Lu Yiming’s opinion, even if Su Rongrong was arrogant and did not admit these things, she would not treat him as an enemy like she did before. How long has it been since we last met? It’s getting colder, isn’t it? After Su Rongrong finished scolding Lu Yiming, her eyes uncontrollably lingered on Cheng Xiao. “haven’t seen you for a long time.” “haven’t seen you for a long time.” “Joining Lu’s?” “yes.” “Have you been bullied? Ahem, don’t get me wrong, Lu Corporation is a private group after all, and there may be irregularities in some areas. As a classmate, I am just concerned.” As soon as these words came out, Cheng Xiao looked at Su Rongrong with some surprise. He and Su Rongrong had only chatted for a few sentences, and they were definitely not that familiar with each other. Is this kind of concern enough? Su Rongrong seemed to understand her mistake and explained it immediately. “Boss Su, you’re joking. Lu’s Group is pretty good. Our company is quite standardized.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Yes, I don’t know whether the Lu family rules are standard or not, but anyway, this bastard Lu Yiming is not a good person. Su Rongrong also had a lot of grievances that she couldn’t express. After all, the bad things that happened between him and Lu Yiming must not be known to anyone else. I feel so aggrieved, but I can’t say it out loud. Su Rongrong glared at Lu Yiming fiercely. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… How did I offend Su Rongrong? “Boss Su, since we’ve met, how about we talk?” “Do we have anything in common?” “Boss Su, you’re joking. Isn’t PHS a common topic?” Su Rongrong, who originally wanted to turn around and leave, stopped immediately. This bastard always finds his own ‘weakness’. “Haha, Mr. Lu is right. We can indeed talk about it.” “coffee?” “Can.” It can be seen that Su Rongrong looked reluctant. “You guys go back first. I want to know the final statistical results tonight.” “clear.” Since these two want to talk, it certainly can’t be a game, and there’s no point for the others to stay. “You guys should go back too. By the way, remind Mr. Zhang that the latest data report needs to be updated.” Cheng Xiao’s inquiring gaze never left Su Rongrong. Cheng Xiao: Lu Yiming, is it because of her? The appearance of Su Rongrong made Cheng Xiao seem to realize something. Although she couldn’t be sure, her woman’s sixth sense told Cheng Xiao that it was exactly what she thought. “Cheng Xiao, what are you thinking about? Let’s go.” Li Li led the team to leave, and found that Cheng Xiao did not move, so she reminded him, “Feel sorry.” Cheng Xiao came to her senses and turned around immediately. Su Rongrong also saw this scene. Chapter 121 Beautiful as a Picture “This store is great, you’ll probably like it.” Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong were strolling in Xiaoximen. To be honest, Little Simon of this era has shown signs of decline. It is far less lively than it was more than ten years ago. Today, Xiaoximen is gradually being forgotten. What remains most are the old style residential areas, but in such an environment, there is an unusual store. In 1995, coffee was a very fashionable word. In this era, white collar workers have not yet developed the habit of drinking a cup of coffee at work. Even if you want to be more fashionable, people usually choose Nestle two in one or Mocha instant. This is considered a petty bourgeois life. Running an orthodox coffee shop seems a bit out of place in this era. “It looks good.” Su Rongrong is very picky. Of course, in Lu Yiming’s opinion, this is not a disadvantage. This kind of pickyness is often the refinement developed in life. In Lu Yiming’s view, Su Rongrong herself is a combination of contradictions. She is the eldest daughter of the Su family, but she has been able to keep a low profile during her four years in college. She could have lived a life of luxury and feasted on banquets, but she still had to queue up in the cafeteria with her roommates to get food. You can win all your life without doing anything, but you insist on realizing your own value. Obviously… “Lu Yiming, are you coming in or not?” He’s been standing at the door for more than ten seconds. What does this mean? “Ahem. Sorry.” Lu Yiming pushed open the door of the coffee shop, ladies first. “One Viennese coffee and one Americano.” “How do you know that?” Su Rongrong was a little surprised. How did Lu Yiming know that she liked Viennese coffee? Even his own father doesn’t know about his habit. “A single horse carriage is suitable for girls.” “I asked you how you knew that, Lu Yiming. You didn’t investigate me, did you?” Su Rongrong’s eyes were full of vigilance. This bastard is actually capable of doing such a thing. “Come on, can you think better of me? Why should I investigate you? It’s not like I haven’t seen it before.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… The true colors of this bastard are finally revealed. “Uh, that’s not what I meant, I just…” Lu Yiming said that he just said it casually and definitely did not imply anything. At this time, Su Rongrong was so angry that her teeth were itching. What the hell was that bastard’s intention in making her think of that scene every now and then? “I just think the sweet flavor of whipped cream and chocolate suits you best.” “snort.” Su Rongrong didn’t say anything and chose to sit down by the window. “Huh, this young lady is so vigilant.” Lu Yiming wiped the non existent sweat from his forehead. Although Su Rongrong was still young, the confrontation with her still caught people off guard. 10 minutes later. “Your Vienna.” Colorful rice is sprinkled on the snow white whipped cream, which looks very beautiful. Sip the piping hot coffee through the sweet chocolate syrup and cool whipped cream. In Lu Yiming’s opinion, it does have a unique flavor. No wonder they say this is coffee suitable for beauties. Unlike Lu Yiming, who only likes American style. Abroad, American style is ridiculed as “water for washing socks”. Light and bland taste. Su Rongrong didn’t hesitate to pick up the Vienna glass in front of her and took a sip. My eyes light up, the original flavor is the authentic taste. I didn’t expect that I could taste it in Shanghai. “etc.” “What?” Lu Yiming’s serious expression made Su Rongrong a little dazed. Why are you so serious all of a sudden? Could something have happened? Is it Xiaolingtong? Looking at Lu Yiming’s serious look, Su Rongrong instantly released her imagination. result… Lu Yiming picked up the tissue on the table and gently wiped Su Rongrong’s attractive red lips while Su Rongrong was staring at him in a daze. this… Su Rongrong was completely dumbfounded. How could this bastard be so bold? ! “Cream foam.” “Lu Yiming, what do you mean?” “Cream foam, I’ve already told you.” Lu Yiming looked innocent. “I can wipe it myself, why are you doing that?” This action was too intimate for Su Rongrong. Shouldn’t this kind of action be something only lovers can do? This bastard was just trying to “scare” me with a serious face. Su Rongrong never imagined that in the end, he was just teasing her. “It’s a normal action.” “you…” normal? Normal ass! You shameless dandy pervert! Su Rongrong felt like her lungs were about to explode with anger. You’re a girl, and you can just do it as you say? As expected, this bastard has no sense of the boundaries between men and women at all. However, what made Su Rongrong even more unbearable was that she actually had feelings. Yes, at this moment, Su Rongrong still felt a burning sensation on her lips. how so? It must be my illusion. No, why would I have any feeling about Lu Yiming’s actions? “Last time on the boat…” “Lu Yiming, can you please shut up?” Lu Yiming was about to talk about the last time he applied sunscreen on the boat, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Su Rongrong. “Okay, you have the final say.” “Lu Yiming, there won’t be a next time. If you make any more moves, I’ll leave immediately.” “no problem.” Lu Yiming leaned back, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. Ha, when it comes to feelings, Su Rongrong is a blank slate. Silly girl, you actually use this to threaten me. Don’t you know that once a girl uses you to threaten her, it means that she acknowledges that you have an inexplicable and ambiguous relationship with the boy? Lu Yiming achieved the effect. Stop naturally. As for Su Rongrong at this moment, it obviously took a long time for her to calm down. Neither of them spoke again. Instead, I sipped my coffee and looked at the street outside. The slightly dilapidated streets have a unique flavor. Neither Lu Yiming nor Su Rongrong noticed. At this moment, the shop owner took out his camera. This is a pretty picture. The shop owner is considered an “artist”, and this picture is too rare for him. Press the shutter button and this beauty will be preserved forever. What does it mean to be picturesque? This photo is enough to explain it all. The moment is frozen in time forever. Handsome men and beautiful women, with catkins floating all over the sky. Combined with the quiet streets, I wonder how many people’s hearts this scene can touch. It’s a pity that the conversation between this couple has nothing to do with romance. “You asked me out just to drink coffee?” Su Rongrong said that her patience is quite limited. “Isn’t this congratulations?” Lu Yiming raised the American coffee in his hand and waved it towards Su Rongrong. “Lu Yiming, is this interesting? You know how much Gaoyuan Capital owns.” Su Rongrong curled her lips, “You bastard, you’re clearly bragging in front of me.” Chapter 122 Hunger Marketing “Boss Lu, is it time to increase the investment?” Today’s booming scene has made everyone see the potential of Xiaolingtong. In this case, it is natural to increase the investment in Xiaolingtong. Meet the huge demand of the domestic market. Su Rongrong had just calculated that although the domestic production line has not yet been established, the parts imported from Xiao Rizi are enough to assemble 4 million PHS units. If all of them are put on the market, it may not necessarily meet domestic needs, but it can balance the demand in a short period of time. Once the numbers go up, the market value of Xiaolingtong will also reach a new high. At that time, Gaoyuan Capital will be able to make huge profits from the shares it holds. “Why invest so much?” “Lu Yiming, are you drifting?” Su Rongrong looked incredulous at Lu Yiming’s answer. Seize the opportunity and pursue the victory. What a simple answer. While the momentum is good, it is natural to distribute the product across the board. “Do you know what hunger marketing is?” “What?” The hunger marketing that is now commonplace in later generations is still a rare term in this era. Su Rongrong was even more confused. “It is a commercial promotion method used for goods or services.” Lu Yiming took a sip of coffee and began to explain the concept of “hunger marketing” to Su Rongrong. “As a supplier, we can intentionally reduce production in order to regulate the relationship between supply and demand and create the ‘false impression’ of insufficient supply.” “What are the benefits?” Su Rongrong was stunned at first, but her mind started working quickly. “Maintain product image and maintain higher selling prices and profit margins.” “hiss…” Lu Yiming’s words seemed to open a new door for Su Rongrong. “On the first day, we have seen the huge audience of Xiaolingtong, but once we increase production, there will be a risk of price drop of Xiaolingtong itself.” “Aren’t you afraid that other products will take over the market?” “Rongrong, you should know that in the short term, there will be no competitor to PHS in China. We are taking the civilian route and seizing the low end market. Given the current situation in China, the demand for this market is the greatest.” The only advantage that allowed Lu Yiming to use the “hunger marketing” strategy was that Xiaolingtong had no competitors in the market. For Lu Yiming, this allows him to do whatever he wants. “How did you come up with that?” With just a few simple words, Su Rongrong understood what Lu Yiming meant. However, in Su Rongrong’s eyes, Lu Yiming is definitely a monster. It’s amazing that someone could come up with such a sales strategy. Su Rongrong: The brains of this guy are simply… “It’s simple. To buy a new car, you have to pay a deposit and wait in line. To buy a house, you have to register and pay a deposit first, right?” “What do you mean? Limited edition?!” “clever.” As expected of Su Rongrong, it’s simple to explain. In Lu Yiming’s opinion, today’s PHS is a rigid demand for ordinary people. Lu Yiming launched the Xiaolingtong system, which is affordable for ordinary people and is bound to create an unprecedented storm in the communications market. Rigid demand also became Lu Yiming’s confidence. This was Lu Yiming’s decision from the very beginning. Use a lot of advertising and promotional activities to arouse customers’ desire to buy. Nowadays, everyone in the streets is talking about Xiaolingtong. Although Xiaolingtong is not as valuable as mobile phones, it also has significant limitations. But Xiaolingtong has all the basic functions that a mobile phone should have. For ordinary people, Xiaolingtong itself is a good substitute. How big this market is is beyond everyone’s imagination. What Lu Yiming has to do now is to adopt hunger marketing tactics and make users wait in vain. As for the result of this, it is to further increase people’s desire to buy. What you can’t get is the best. This will be beneficial for raising the price of Xiaolingtong products or laying a customer base for future large scale sales. After listening to Lu Yiming’s explanation, Su Rongrong also sighed. sharp. Lu Yiming’s control over people’s hearts has reached the extreme. Once the ‘hunger marketing’ is implemented, Xiaolingtong will surely become a ‘hot word’. Once it has fully fermented, this huge base number will even explode like a blowout. “So, you’re going to cut production?” “There’s no need for that. Isn’t the demand outstripping the supply right now?” “Can you guarantee that every sales office will receive 1,000 units of production?” “No, it needs to be separated. For example, the production in Shanghai is set at 1,000. The production in other cities is calculated based on the sales ratio of the previous day. This will definitely lead to a situation where supply exceeds demand.” “Aren’t you afraid of the scalpers?” Su Rongrong has a talent for business, so she quickly thought of the profession of “scalper”. Once they discover that Xiaolingtong has benefits, these scalpers will swarm in like sharks smelling blood. By then, wouldn’t it be… “In some ways, scalpers can help us create a better illusion.” “you…” Well, Lu Yiming is really too bold. However, Su Rongrong had to admit that she was quite tempted by Lu Yiming’s proposal. If it is really as Lu Yiming imagined, then the future of the PHS business will be an unimaginable market. “At the beginning, we need to keep a firm grip on the output of goods.” “Is it because of this reason that you rejected my proposal at the beginning?” Su Rongrong was optimistic about the Xiaolingtong business, so after investing in the project, she began to investigate some electronic manufacturers in the country. Su Rongrong’s purpose is actually very simple. That is the hope to reduce the production price of Xiaolingtong. Take up huge market share faster. However, this proposal was rejected by Lu Yiming. At the beginning, Su Rongrong couldn’t understand why Lu Yiming did this. But now it seems that Lu Yiming had planned everything long ago. Damn it, he actually kept it from me for so long. “Of course, what we need now is a situation where supply exceeds demand, and you cannot guarantee that those electronic manufacturers will not blindly expand the market for profit. Unstable factors need to be nipped in the bud.” “You are really cunning.” “I’ll take this as a compliment from you.” “Su Rongrong.” “What?” “Now you know why I am unwilling to give you more than 33% of the shares.” “A veto power?” “clever.” “snort!” Well, although I admit that Lu Yiming is very powerful, this guy underestimates himself too much. It’s not like I can’t accept Lu Yiming’s strategy. However, Su Rongrong didn’t notice it at this time. Because of the discussion just now, the two heads were getting closer and closer. At this moment, they are almost together. Su Rongrong completely lost her guard. Perhaps, it is only Lu Yiming. Only then will there be such ‘charm’. Chapter 123 Mr. Lu pays the bill “Mr. Lu, the data is out.” Cheng Xiao held a thick sheet of data and pushed open the door of Lu Yiming’s office. At this moment, his eyes were full of excitement. After persuading Su Rongrong, Lu Yiming rushed back to the company. No one in the investment department left just because it was time to get off work. Everyone is waiting, waiting for a final result. Everyone has already expected that the Shanghai Xiaolingtong business is booming. But what about nationwide? After all, this time the Xiaolingtong service was launched simultaneously in major cities across the country. What about the market outside Shanghai? No one dares to give a final prediction. After all, in everyone’s eyes, the Magic City market itself has unparalleled advantages. At this moment, everyone pricked up their ears, and even their breathing became rapid. On the contrary, Lu Yiming sat calmly in the boss chair, looking at Cheng Xiao with such a composed look. “Vice President Li…” Even Li Li, who had locked herself in the office for a long time, came to the outside of Lu Yiming’s office at this moment. “Hush.” Li Li made a gesture to keep quiet, her eyes full of anticipation. Today’s investment department has become the target of Lu Group’s criticism. Although Lu Yiming obtained investment from Gaoyuan Capital, in the eyes of those veterans, the PHS business was nothing more than a trick using technology to fool people. The older generation prefers to believe in down to earth and visible rewards. Instead of Lu Yiming’s castle in the air. Therefore, the first day’s revenue from the Xiaolingtong business is crucial to the investment department. At this moment, even Li Li couldn’t help but clench her fists and pray silently. This was the first time that Vice President Li lost his composure in front of so many people. This behavior further increased everyone’s nervousness. “Huh… I hope it’s good news.” “Of course we will. We have been following this for so long.” “Believe in yourself, believe in Mr. Lu.” Today, those who remain in the investment department are the real elites, and they are all “insiders”. The Investment Department has long been united as one, and under the leadership of Lu Yiming, the results of its first effort are about to be revealed. “Mr. Lu, except for the sales outside Xinjiang, which is 98 percent, all other provinces have completed today’s sales.” “Say that again?” Lu Yiming, who was originally leaning on the boss chair, stood up subconsciously. Say it again? Lu Yiming didn’t seem to hear clearly what Cheng Xiao just said. “Except for the sales in the areas outside Xinjiang, which accounted for 98 percent of the total sales, all other provinces have completed today’s sales!” This time, Cheng Xiao repeated what she had just said in a louder and more determined voice. Except for areas outside Xinjiang, telecom business offices in all provinces have achieved their planned targets. The Xiaolingtong business is extremely popular. Not only in Shanghai, but across the country, Xiaolingtong is like a dark horse, and it is unrivaled in the entire communications market! “Yes!” “Wow!” Cheers, huge cheers, resounded throughout the investment department. At this moment, all the efforts are worth it. “Boss Lu, we succeeded.” Cheng Xiao’s eyes were slightly red. Others may not know, but as Lu Yiming’s assistant, Cheng Xiao understands how much pressure Lu Yiming is under. Although everyone is working overtime day and night for the Xiaolingtong business. However, it was Lu Yiming who took on all the external pressure of the investment department. At this moment, he can finally put down his burden. Cheng Xiao was very happy, happy for Lu Yiming. In Cheng Xiao’s eyes, he, Lu Yiming, deserves everything in front of him. “Calm down, calm down, I expected this.” Lu Yiming pressed his hand, indicating that everything was within his expectations. However, this slightly trembling voice still betrayed himself. In his previous life, Lu Yiming had stood at the ‘peak’. In his previous life, Lu Yiming had accomplished even more brilliant feats. However, Lu Yiming in his previous life was far from being like he is today. My heart is pounding. “Congratulations, Mr. Lu.” Cheng Xiao stood in front of Lu Yiming, her eyes full of admiration and suppressed love. How can anyone not love a man like this? He was not only a light in his own dark life. It has also illuminated the future of countless people. In this project, everyone learned a lot from Lu Yiming. “This is the result of our joint efforts.” Lu Yiming swore that he could have controlled his emotions. But the atmosphere has already been set. Lu Yiming still hugged Cheng Xiao subconsciously. Of course, Lu Yiming was full of excitement at this time, and there was no love between men and women. It was just excitement that needed to be let out. “Go and talk to everyone. Everyone is waiting.” Cheng Xiao seemed to be very greedy for this hug. How nice it would be if she could always be in his warm arms? It’s a pity that I still end up… “I want to say a few words.” Lu Yiming let go of Cheng Xiao, and in his excitement, he ignored the disappointment in Cheng Xiao’s eyes. After passing each other, Lu Yiming walked out of the office. At this time, Lu Yiming was the only protagonist, and everyone ignored Cheng Xiao who did not turn around. “Lu Yiming, you have always been the best, always.” Cheng Xiao let the tears flow down her face. Perhaps, this is the price of my growth. “Everyone, we have submitted a perfect answer. I know everyone has worked hard during this period. Five days of vacation, and the year end bonus will be doubled!” What is the most motivating thing in the workplace? It’s not the boss’s big pie, but a real, visible and tangible reward. Lu Yiming was very clear about this. “Long live President Lu!” “It’s my treat tonight.” “Wow!” When it comes to rewarding everyone, Lu Yiming will naturally not be stingy. Lu Yiming waved his hand and said, “Mr. Lu will pay for all expenses tonight!” “You are quite good at handling things, man.” Li Li quietly approached Lu Yiming. Looking at her excited colleagues, Li Li was also quite moved. This has never happened in other departments. “It’s okay, the company will reimburse you.” “That’s not in accordance with the rules.” “I believe you have a way.” The Lu Group has civilized regulations. However, since Li Li was once Lu Aijun’s special assistant, she naturally has some face. It’s no wonder Lu Yiming is stingy. Lu Yiming’s wallet was literally empty. After all, Wang Lan’s salary still needs to be subsidized. Even Mr. Lu, who is wealthy and powerful, has his moments of distress. “Should we call Wang Lan?” “Let’s go together, we are all family.” “Okay, I’ll call her.” But what everyone doesn’t know is. At this moment, a figure has been standing at the door of the Investment Department for a long time. “Hey, this brat is really good at winning people’s hearts.” Lu Aijun smiled slightly. In this world, no one liked to see his son succeed more than Lu Aijun. “Mr. Lu, do you want to come in?” “No need, let’s go.” Lu Aijun left quietly but never stopped paying attention. Chapter 124 Undercurrent The emergence of Xiaolingtong completely saved the telecommunications group. In just one week, business skyrocketed, even exceeding the total of last year. This speed completely shocked everyone. Gao Yan also had his highlight moment because he decided to introduce Xiaolingtong. Of course, it is worth celebrating for both Lu Group and Gaoyuan Capital. But for ordinary people, there is indeed a lot of “resentment”. Why? It was Lu Yiming who made the Chinese people experience what “hunger marketing” was for the first time. With his own actions, Lu Yiming pushed Xiaolingtong to the throne that was hard to come by. It even became common to queue up all night just to get a cell phone. Ordinary people set up small stools at the entrance of many business halls just for the 1,000 quota per day. Customers outside Xinjiang were even worse off, as they failed to meet expectations on the first day and had to cut back on shipments by 200 units. Ordinary people outside Xinjiang said, can they be blamed for this? If you want to blame someone, blame Xiaolingtong for not promoting it well enough. It cannot be said to be a problem of propaganda. The key is that Xinjiang is too remote and far away from the center, which leads to information asymmetry. By the time people outside Xinjiang realized the popularity of Xiaolingtong, they were destined to lose the quota of 200 units. For the heads of major telecommunications business offices, this may also be the highlight of their lives. Xiaolingtong doesn’t need them to promote it at all. Once such products arrive, they will definitely be snapped up. Some people even used their connections to get a hold of these responsible persons in order to buy a PHS. Dinner invitations can be scheduled from Monday to the weekend, and sometimes I have to attend two or three dinners in a day. As the second party, when have you ever received such treatment? I really feel proud of myself. Of course, during this period, some people had evil thoughts. Just as Su Rongrong guessed. Many people have seen the potential for huge profits from the PHS business. You know, the telecommunications group still insists on the policy of giving away PHS when you join the network. But the price of Xiaolingtong has been driven up to around 1,000 yuan. This is more than three times higher than the factory price. This kind of huge profits makes many people jealous. Such huge profits will naturally make some people choose to take risks. However, this time, with Lu Yiming’s reminder, the telecommunications group had already made a contingency plan. Once related problems are found, severe punishment will be imposed. No matter who it is, anyone who dares to make a profit privately will be fired, no matter how strong their background is. Gao Wei is not a fool. Now is the time for the telecommunications group to establish its brand image. Gao Wei will never tolerate the destruction of the telecommunications group’s image in the hearts of the people for the sake of these petty profits. Looking at the national market, the only store that has the legal right to sell phones is the Xiaolingtong store located on the Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. No one knows what kind of powerful background this store has. Anyway, the daily supply of 1,000 Xiaolingtong phones has never been interrupted. And this store has become a hot spot in the eyes of scalpers. “No, you guys should give way.” Early in the morning, Haiyang wanted to open the store for business, but was left speechless by the scene in front of him. Well, customers have surrounded my store. Even I, the boss, can’t get in! Is that too much? “What are you yelling about? Don’t you know who comes first?” “That’s right. We’ve been queuing all night.” “Dude, don’t make trouble.” Ocean: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Hey, I have such a bad temper! “Let me or not?” “roll.” “Okay, then we won’t be open today.” Customer: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Hey, isn’t this Mr. Hai? You are finally here.” There are many familiar faces in the team. Although Haiyang and Zhang Bing have thought of a solution, each person can only purchase two PHS phones per day. But even so, it cannot resist the passion of scalpers. Haiyang and Zhang Bing did not take the opportunity to raise prices. They just followed Lu Yiming’s advice. The store run by the two is currently the only offline retail store for Xiaolingtong in the country. If you take the lead in raising prices, it would be really ugly. Of course, Lu Yiming was just giving his own suggestions. After all, Lu Yiming was only so attentive for Liang Qian’s sake. These two really want to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune, that is, short term huge profits. But if she does this, Liang Qian will completely look down on her childhood friends. Then, who will still play with these two? The result is naturally good. Zhang Bing of the ocean has a very clear mind. Following Lu Yiming, he could enjoy the benefits, so there was really no need to take risks. Besides, in just one week, he not only recovered his investment, but also earned an extra 1 million. This speed of making money is simply shocking. Compared with the Xiaolingtong business, my previous businesses were like children playing house. Originally, the two of them thought the situation was good and were planning to recruit people. But the problem is that the daily workload is fixed, and two people can handle it if they are busy, so the recruitment plan has been delayed again and again. As for the scalpers, although each person is limited to buying two units, the price of a PHS has now been driven up to around 1,000 yuan. The selling price is maintained at 700 800, and the profit from a mobile phone is enough to make people jealous. They line up every day and can earn nearly 10,000 yuan a month. In this era when the average salary is 1,000 yuan, this is definitely a way to get rich quickly. More and more people joined the queue. This was also the situation that Lu Yiming had thought of in advance. In a situation where there are more people than resources, more people have become curious about Xiaolingtong. Those potential customers who had been on the sidelines also joined the queue. This wave of “hunger marketing” strategy can be said to be very effective. Of course, some senior executives of the Lu Group are still short sighted. At this week’s high level meeting, they foolishly jumped out to criticize Lu Yiming for not increasing investment in products, resulting in a situation where there is a price but no market. These senior executives only cared about the short term benefits in front of them, and Lu Yiming was too lazy to even roll his eyes at them. To Lu Yiming’s surprise, this time, his father actually stood firmly by his side. In a word, just go for it, I will cover for you, son. This is the first time that Lu Aijun has stood up for his son so clearly. Not only did it surprise all the veterans. There was even more fear in the look he gave Lu Yiming. Once Lu Aijun completely sides with Lu Yiming, the internal struggle of the Lu Group will come to an end. This is definitely not what these elders want to see. Recently, there seems to be an undercurrent within the Lu Group. PS: Please give me a five star rating. The rating is too low. Fans who like this book, please give it a five star rating! Chapter 125 Office affair? “Mr. Lu, the evidence you want.” Wang Lan lazily handed a file bag to Lu Yiming. This lazy look exudes amazing charm. The moment Wang Lan walked into the investment department, all the men’s eyes were fixed on her as she twisted her hips. Wang Lan: ( ^_^ ) Look, I am really charming. “On purpose?” “What is Mr. Lu saying? Why can’t I understand?” Wang Lan covered her red lips and glanced at him secretly. “Put that away.” “Hey…” In Wang Lan’s eyes, Lu Yiming is just a stinky man who doesn’t understand romance! She has a good figure and good looks, the ceiling of the young women’s world, with a beauty that is so beautiful that the moon can shame the flowers. Only Lu Yiming doesn’t know how to appreciate her. “Remember what I told you.” “Lu Yiming, don’t go too far. I’m helping you now.” “That’s why I told you to stop trying.” “laugh.” Wang Lan was not convinced. Why? Why did she, who was so charming, have to be defeated by Lu Yiming? Could it be that… “Mr. Lu, could it be that you have never tasted a woman?” Wang Lan’s train of thought is indeed very unique. It’s definitely not my problem that Lu Yiming has no feelings for me. Yes, that must be the case. I’m afraid Lu Yiming has never tasted the goodness of a mature woman, so he mistakenly treats the young girl as a treasure. If Lu Yiming is willing, Wang Lan really does not recommend letting Lu Yiming experience what it means to be unable to stop. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… It’s good to have confidence, but it’s rare to find someone as confident as Wang Lan. “If I were you, I would put my mind where it should be, at least to be worthy of your million dollar annual salary.” “I don’t like what Mr. Lu said. Is it easy for me to get into the logistics department? Tell me honestly, they are very united. Who else but me can sort all this out in such a short time?” Wang Lan smiled coldly, not bragging. If someone else had been in charge, he would have been sidelined long ago. Not to mention the evidence in front of us, it’s hard to say whether I can survive in the logistics department. You know, apart from talking, Lu Yiming couldn’t provide any substantial help. “Otherwise, do you think I would offer you such a high price?” Lu Yiming had already opened the file bag. Photos, copies, purchase orders, the chain of evidence is linked together. Yes, I was not disappointed. “I didn’t expect that the top executives of the Lu Group would treat the company’s rules and regulations as a joke.” Seeing that Lu Yiming was serious, Wang Lan stopped joking. Although she would exude her charm from time to time to tease Lu Yiming, Wang Lan was not careless at all when it came to being serious. During this period, Wang Lan has collected enough evidence. Although the other party has been very careful, some data cannot be destroyed. “They are very cautious, and even an auditing company would have a hard time discovering this.” “You want me to praise you?” You, Wang Lan, can discover problems that the audit company cannot. That’s called great value for money. “Of course, these methods are indeed secretive, but they are still a little immature in front of me.” Especially under Wang Lan’s use of both kindness and force, many people in the logistics department have been recruited by Wang Lan for his own use. Wang Lan was able to achieve this in just a few weeks, which really shocked Lu Yiming. “Anything else?” “That’s enough, Mr. Lu. Over the past three years, tens of millions of dollars have gone missing. This is just part of the logistics department.” “You mean, the tip of the iceberg?” Lu Yiming couldn’t help but frown at this moment. If Wang Lan’s speculation is correct, then the corruption problem within the Lu Group is quite serious. Even Lu Yiming did not expect that these elders would be so bold. It was obvious that they were fearless and used my father’s trust as a tool to make money. “If my guess is correct, then this chain of interests involves multiple departments.” This is rotten to the core. Fortunately, Lu Yiming discovered it in time, otherwise, the Lu Group would suffer huge losses. “Another thing is that the real estate projects have not been peaceful recently.” This is the problem Wang Lan discovered during the investigation. However, Wang Lan is only the head of the logistics department and cannot extend his influence to the real estate project team. It’s just speculation and suspicion, without any real evidence, so I’m afraid it won’t hurt the other party’s foundation. “Now is not the time.” Lu Yiming put the evidence in the file bag back. His fingers drummed repeatedly on the desk in front of him. Just relying on these alone will not be enough to defeat the other party. Especially the interest group that Wang Lan guessed. I’m afraid even if it’s my own father, I can’t act rashly without real evidence. Although Lu Aijun has the final say over the entire Lu Group. But once the enemy is alerted, no one can guarantee that the situation in the previous life will not happen again. “Of course I can’t move to a higher position, but if…” “I understand what you mean. You should prepare yourself for your new position.” Lu Yiming and Wang Lan looked at each other. Without any further ado, they both understood each other’s thoughts. This is called ‘professionalism’. “It looks like I can achieve my goal ahead of schedule.” Wang Lan stretched lazily with a smile, showing her beautiful figure to Lu Yiming without reservation. Well, this is a recurrence of old habits. “Ahem, I am a man after all.” “What’s wrong? Mr. Lu can’t control himself? Do you need my help?” Wang Lan licked her red lips, full of charm. “hehe.” “You’re so bored, can’t you give me some confidence?” “I’m afraid you’ll get ahead of me.” “Mr. Lu, I think you are worried about your lack of self control.” Wang Lan stood up and leaned against the edge of the desk. The crossed legs perfectly show off the advantages of long legs. I have to say, this pair of beautiful legs can make men unable to stop. But at this moment. “Mr. Lu, today’s sales data is out, I…” Just when Wang Lan was showing off her charm, Cheng Xiao just pushed the door open. At this moment, the air seemed to freeze. “Sorry, Mr. Lu, I…” Cheng Xiao never thought that she would actually see this scene. this… Minister Wang’s posture really makes people think. “Oh, you came at a really bad time. Okay, I’m done with my work, Mr. Lu. I’ll go back and wait for your good news.” Seeing Cheng Xiaoxiao come in, Wang Lan finally calmed down a little. She smiled at Lu Yiming, then twisted her slender waist and left Lu Yiming’s office. “Mr. Lu, I’m sorry, I didn’t expect…” Cheng Xiao’s expression was complicated at this moment. His eyes looked a little dim. Could it be that Lu Yiming likes the femininity of Minister Wang? It is undeniable that Cheng Xiao is indeed more beautiful than Wang Lan. There is no doubt about this, but when it comes to women’s charm, Cheng Xiao, a blank slate, naturally cannot compete with Wang Lan. PS: Please give me a five star rating. The rating is too low. Fans who like this book, please give it a five star rating! Chapter 126 Lu Yiming’s ‘Barometer’ “Help me make an appointment with Vice President Zhang.” “afternoon?” “Um.” “OK.” Lu Yiming glanced at today’s sales. It was as popular as ever. Xiaolingtong had achieved unimaginable results in just one week since its launch. Of course, all this was within Lu Yiming’s expectations. What needs to be resolved now are the problems within the group. “Anything else?” Seeing that Cheng Xiao did not leave, Lu Yiming looked up in surprise. “No, I just…I…” “Should I ask for leave? Or is Auntie’s condition recurring?” “No, my mother is recovering well.” I originally thought that there was something wrong with my aunt, but now it seems that Cheng Xiao has something to say. Lu Yiming put down his pen and looked at Cheng Xiao who seemed to be hesitant to speak. “Tell me, what happened?” “Boss Lu, do you like Minister Wang?” Cheng Xiao held it in for a long time, but finally spoke out with a red face. “Wang Lan?” “yes.” The scene just after entering the door was too exciting for Cheng Xiao. Naked temptation. Cheng Xiao saw it clearly. Wang Lan was almost sticking to Lu Yiming’s face. This woman is really shameless. Well, in this regard, Cheng Xiao is indeed like a blank sheet of paper. Although she is as beautiful as a fairy, Cheng Xiao spends most of her time working. The conditions at home do not allow Cheng Xiao to fall in love. Moreover, Cheng Xiao really had no feelings for the opposite sex until she met Lu Yiming, and then she came to her senses. So this is what it feels like to be pampered? But when Cheng Xiao was daydreaming, Lu Yiming personally rejected everything that might happen. This week, Cheng Xiao lived in a daze. The last time she saw Su Rongrong, Cheng Xiao guessed that Lu Yiming might like someone like Su Rongrong. Yes, there is a huge gap between me and Su Rongrong. But today’s scene shocked Cheng Xiao again. Could it be that what Lu Yiming likes is femininity and the ability to display female charm? “What are you thinking? Seeing is not necessarily believing. Okay, go make an appointment with Mr. Zhang.” Lu Yiming smiled and shook his head. He didn’t expect that the scene just now would cause Cheng Xiao to have wild thoughts. Originally, Lu Yiming wanted to explain it more clearly. But on second thought, it’s better to be ambiguous like this, maybe it can make Cheng Xiao stop thinking about it. After all, after Lu Yiming was reborn, the person he least wanted to hurt was Cheng Xiao. I made so many mistakes in my last life, I will try my best to make amends in this life. “Okay, Mr. Lu, I’ll contact them right away.” Cheng Xiao didn’t say anything else, but she felt a dull pain in her heart. Maybe, I can change myself? I have always enjoyed Lu Yiming’s care, but I have never thought about changing anything for Lu Yiming. Maybe you can try it yourself? Lu Yiming didn’t know what Cheng Xiao was thinking, otherwise, he would probably have scolded Wang Lan. How did it cause Cheng Xiao’s misunderstanding? Ten minutes later. Vice President Zhang’s office. “hiss…” After hanging up the phone, Vice President Zhang made a sound similar to a toothache. What does Lu Yiming mean? Everything is fine, why do you want to meet me? Logically speaking, the logistics department controlled by Vice President Zhang has little to do with Lu Yiming’s investment department. Besides, there is a General Affairs Department above the Logistics Department. Come to me directly? I’m afraid it’s not a good thing. Originally, Vice President Zhang was going to refuse. But there is no legitimate reason. Moreover, Mr. Lu is very popular in the group during this period. Although he didn’t want to admit it, the Xiaolingtong service did refresh Vice President Zhang’s cognition. Who would have thought that the Xiaolingtong, which was looked down upon by everyone, could soar to the sky. Vice President Zhang is amazed at the daily turnover now, which has already caught up with more than half of the foreign trade income. This Lu Yiming is really a case of a tiger father and a dog son. The voices questioning Mr. Lu within the group suddenly disappeared. This made the public opinion that he had worked so hard to create in the beginning fall apart. “Boss Zhang, how about we talk to Boss Xu first?” Everyone in the group knows that Vice President Zhang is a capable subordinate of President Xu. Although they are both vice presidents, Mr. Xu’s status is obviously higher. Among the senior veterans, more than half are close associates promoted by General Manager Xu, which naturally includes Vice President Zhang. “Don’t worry yet.” Vice President Zhang’s fingers kept tapping on the table. The situation is unclear now, and I don’t know what Lu Yiming wants me to do. If I lose my composure, I’m afraid I’ll be laughed at. Besides, if I can’t even deal with a kid who is still wet behind the ears, how can I have the face to sit in the position of vice president? “Well, you reply to Lu Yiming’s assistant later and tell him that I’m free at 3:30 pm.” “good.” Vice President Zhang thought for a moment and finally decided to meet Lu Yiming first. Test the other party’s strength first. Unfortunately, Vice President Zhang does not understand Lu Yiming’s style of doing things. If he wasn’t absolutely sure, Lu Yiming would never take any action. Either it’s a fatal blow, or it stays dormant. All the twists and turns in the business world are just troubles to Lu Yiming. “What are you thinking about? Why are you so absent minded?” Li Li originally came to look for sales docking data, but when she saw Cheng Xiao in a daze at her workstation, she couldn’t help but step forward and ask. You know, as Lu Yiming’s assistant, Cheng Xiao not only has a heavy burden of her own. The more important point is that to a certain extent, Cheng Xiao represents Lu Yiming. It is impossible for the staff of the investment department to ask Lu Yiming about everything, and to some extent, Cheng Xiao’s performance has become the “barometer” of Mr. Lu. If you observe Cheng Xiao’s expression carefully, you may be able to guess Mr. Lu’s mood. All I can say is that white collar workers are smart people and they have acquired this talent naturally. Cheng Xiao had been sitting in a daze at her workstation, which naturally aroused suspicion. Could something have happened? Or maybe Mr. Lu encountered some difficulties. I can only say that Cheng Xiao today is not a qualified assistant. Li Li also stepped forward to remind her. “Mr. Li, it’s okay. I was just thinking about something.” “What are you thinking about?” Li Li asked with interest. “Vice President Li, do you think successful men like feminine women?” “Um?” Li Li was stunned at first, then smiled. What kind of weird question is this? “Sorry, Mr. Li, I’m just daydreaming.” Cheng Xiao asked the question subconsciously and reacted immediately. “Okay, stop thinking about these useless things. Besides, you are so beautiful, why are you afraid of these things?” “Vice President Li, no, it’s not me, just a friend.” How could such an explanation be hidden from Li Li? It seems that this person in this office is really causing a lot of harm to others. Look at what you have done to the girl. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What a huge injustice. I didn’t do anything.

Chapter 127 Interview with Vice President Zhang “Mr. Lu, if you want to see me, just come directly. Why bother asking Assistant Cheng to make an appointment?” Originally, I wanted to meet at the group. But Vice President Zhang also has his own concerns. If Lu Yiming entered his office, he would really be unable to defend himself. The veterans will think they are at the mercy of others. Could it be that Mr. Lu just wanted to arouse suspicion? In the end, Vice President Zhang changed the meeting place to a coffee shop ten kilometers away from the group. When Cheng Xiao reported the news to Lu Yiming, Lu Yiming smiled and shook his head. A self righteous old fox. Anyone can see these little thoughts at a glance. Am I going to conspire with you, Vice President Zhang? “Mr. Zhang, you’re joking. This place is nice. The breeze from the river is quite pleasant.” “As long as Mr. Lu likes it.” Vice President Zhang said this with a smile, but his expression was extremely cautious. Lu Yiming’s sudden appointment with him always made Vice President Zhang feel nervous. During this period, Vice President Zhang listened to the opinions of the small group, but he did not set many traps for the investment department. Although all of his moves were easily seen through by Lu Yiming, he still took action in the end. According to past experience, a playboy like Mr. Lu cannot be tolerated. Even if they are not hit, they will definitely retaliate. Even Vice President Zhang was mentally prepared for Lu Yiming to rush into his office and smash things up. Of course, this is also what the small group of veterans wants to see. If he really did this, Lu Yiming would obviously fall into the other party’s trap. At that time, Lu Aijun can take a good look at his beloved son. How can you accomplish great things if you are so impatient? Even if they happened to invest in the Xiaolingtong business, it was probably just luck. But what is the result? Faced with his own difficulties, the entire investment department remained calm. Not only did the expected event not happen, but not even a rumor got out. It’s eerily quiet. After a week of waiting, it was Vice President Zhang who felt exhausted. The unknown is the most disturbing thing. “Mr. Lu, I wonder why you are looking for me this time?” Vice President Zhang tried his best to restrain himself and stirred the coffee in front of him. However, the speed of his hands was obviously too fast, and the coffee in the cup had already formed a faint vortex. Lu Yiming: He lacks confidence and is not up to any important task. Lu Yiming only took a glance and had already made his decision in his mind. This person in front of me would never have been able to sit in his current position if he had not followed his father to build the empire from the very beginning. Or maybe my father is just nostalgic. “Mr. Zhang, as a junior, I naturally want to learn from you about business. I have been in the group for quite a while, but I have never formally visited you. So, I just happened to have some free time these few days, so I want to listen to your teachings.” “Um?” Vice President Zhang was ready to get straight to the point, but he ended up doing this to himself? What’s the meaning? Is this a sign of weakness to me? This shouldn’t be the case. Lu Yiming has clearly taken the initiative in the group now. “Mr. Lu, we have seen your achievements. With such achievements, what else do you need our guidance for?” “Mr. Zhang, you are joking. You are all elders. My father has always taught me. Mr. Zhang is knowledgeable and can help me avoid some detours.” “this…” “Don’t you think Mr. Zhang is unwilling?” “Of course not, it’s just…” “But if Vice President Zhang gets too close to me, he will offend President Xu, and then offend most people.” “Mr. Lu, what do you mean? I don’t understand.” Vice President Zhang’s face suddenly turned cold. “Vice President Zhang, do you really not understand? Vice President Zhang, please don’t forget that the Lu Group is named after Lu.” “Boss Lu, whether it’s Boss Xu or me, we all worked with Boss Lu to build the Lu Group. The hardships we went through back then are not something you, Boss Lu, can understand. After all, we all watched you grow up. Who in the high level meeting wasn’t your uncle?” “so?” “Mr. Lu, all we hope for is the stable development of the Lu Group. What’s the matter? Mr. Lu, you don’t really think that we old guys have hindered you, do you?” All along, the main contradiction between the two sides has actually always revolved around this issue. A new emperor appoints new ministers. Everyone can understand this truth. However, once you have power, you will enjoy the convenience that power brings. It’s not so easy to let go again. “Vice President Zhang, there’s no need to be so excited. I came to you to give Vice President Zhang some respect.” “Hehe, Mr. Lu, you don’t have to scare me.” Vice President Zhang pretended to remain calm. He had just expressed his dissatisfaction, and had completely broken off relations with Lu Yiming. However, what puzzled him was that Lu Yiming’s current situation in the group did not require him to be so anxious to confront the enemy. Although Lu Yiming has established a firm foothold, he is still far behind several veterans. Even with Lu Aijun’s full support, it would be impossible to seize all power in a short period of time. So, what is Lu Yiming’s confidence today? “Vice President Zhang, I have something here that I’m sure you’ll be interested in.” Vice President Zhang: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Why, don’t you want to see what’s inside?” Vice President Zhang was slow to extend his hand. Vice President Zhang had no idea what was in the file bag. However, once you open the file bag, you might be opening Pandora’s box. Vice President Zhang hesitated. “What’s this?” “Why don’t you just take a look and see for yourself?” “Mr. Lu, don’t scare me, I…” “Vice President Zhang, I’m protecting you.” “What’s the meaning?” “Literally, Vice President Zhang, my patience is limited.” Lu Yiming threw the file bag in front of Vice President Zhang, then stood up and walked to the floor to ceiling window. “The river view is indeed nice, but the weather here can change at any time. Mr. Zhang, it was a clear sky just now, but now it is covered with dark clouds.” As Lu Yiming finished speaking, the sky gradually darkened. The raindrops hit the glass windows. The dripping sound made Vice President Zhang particularly upset. Finally, Vice President Zhang stretched out his trembling hand and picked up the file bag in front of him. Lu Yiming saw all this and sneered. This is?! Ten minutes later, Vice President Zhang looked as pale as death. Impossible, how is this possible? It was done so cleanly, why was Lu Yiming able to find it out? Could it be that a traitor has appeared? “Vice President Zhang, we are not in a hurry. The rain won’t stop any time soon. You have plenty of time to think carefully.” Chapter 128: A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind The Lu Group’s high level meeting arrived as scheduled. Originally, this should have been a meeting of a small group of elders targeting Lu Yiming. But no one expected that something unexpected would happen as soon as the meeting started. “Lao Zhang, what did you just say?” Even Lu Aijun suspected that he might have misheard. President Xu standing by had a gloomy look on his face, and the look he gave Vice President Zhang was filled with gloom. At this moment, only Lu Yiming was sitting at the end of the conference table, playing with the pen in his hand, as if nothing had happened. “Mr. Lu, I think I have made it very clear just now.” Vice President Zhang smiled bitterly without looking up. Even without looking up, Vice President Zhang knew that the eyes of his former “comrade in arms” must be filled with anger at this moment. Yes, Vice President Zhang finally chose to betray. All this was destined to happen two days ago in the afternoon when Vice President Zhang took the information bag from Lu Yiming. At that time, Vice President Zhang felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave and his whole body was cold. Obviously, he had been very careful, but unexpectedly, Lu Yiming still had enough evidence. How did he do it? Could it be that… Is it her? Wang Lan, the woman whom she jokingly calls a “social butterfly”? Lu Yiming openly recruited Wang Lan to the Lu Group. Although Vice President Zhang had also heard rumors about Wang Lan. But Vice President Zhang sneered at Wang Lan. How capable could a woman who had achieved her current status by sleeping with men be? The queen of investing? She’s just a senior public relations woman. I’ve seen a lot of women like her in the business world. What does it matter? Vice President Zhang never took Wang Lan seriously, but he didn’t expect that the other party would give him a fatal blow. “Mr. Lu, what do you mean?” This evidence is enough to send me to jail. Due to the huge amount of corruption, once the group brings me to court, I will probably spend the rest of my life in jail. “Vice President Zhang, you are a smart man, I think you should know.” Lu Yiming sat back in his seat and looked directly into Vice President Zhang’s eyes. “Mr. Lu, I…” “What? Does Vice President Zhang want to take the blame alone? It seems that I really underestimated the revolutionary friendship between you. Well, even if they sacrifice you, they can still enjoy a luxurious life. I just don’t know if your brothers will take good care of your family.” This money must be spit out. But the question is, with such a huge amount of corruption, how much did Vice President Zhang get in total? I’m afraid even if I give everything I have, I still can’t come up with it. If the Zhang family goes bankrupt, what will happen to Vice President Zhang’s wife and children? “By the way, if I remember correctly, Vice President Zhang should be married for the second time, but his wife is more than 20 years younger than him. Vice President Zhang is really lucky. I just don’t know if your little wife can stand the loneliness?” “you…” “Ah, and your youngest son has just reached school age. Tsk, tsk, if the family goes bankrupt, what will happen in the future?” “No need to say more, Mr. Lu, what do you need to do to let me go?” “It seems that Vice President Zhang can still be saved.” Lu Yiming smiled and stretched out his right hand. “Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation, Vice President Zhang. For yourself and your family, this is the right decision.” Lu Yiming didn’t really want to send Vice President Zhang to jail. Even if there is sufficient evidence. However, Lu Yiming did not have enough confidence to convince his father. I’m afraid given Dad’s temper, in the end… What Lu Yiming wanted was just to end the internal strife in the group. As for Vice President Zhang, if he is willing to cooperate with him, in view of his past contributions, Lu Yiming is also willing to let Vice President Zhang retire in full. At this moment in the meeting, everything went according to Lu Yiming’s plan. Vice President Zhang’s betrayal obviously caught President Xu and others by surprise. So what if my face turns pale? Lu Yiming would not give the other party any chance to react. “Boss Lu, I propose that Wang Lan from the Logistics Department be appointed as the General Affairs Department manager.” “Where is the original Manager Zhang? If I remember correctly, Mr. Zhang, he seems to be related to you.” “Yes, he is my nephew. When the group was founded, we were looking for people, so I promoted him. However, as the group continued to grow, my nephew’s ability has fallen behind. For the future of the group, I think it is time for him to retire.” The Manager Zhang mentioned by Vice President Zhang is Zhang Zun’s father and the culprit who framed Lu Yiming. In his previous life, Lu Aijun was also investigating corruption within the group, and he traced the cause back to him. In order to create chaos, he decided to go all out and directly brought the “war” to Lu Yiming’s head. The Lu Group could not bear the anger of the Su family. In order to protect his son, Lu Aijun had to give up the empire he had worked so hard to build. And the Lu Group also collapsed completely. But in this process, the veterans of the Lu Group all made a fortune. Judging from today’s outcome, Lu Yiming has already shown mercy. “In this case, I agree with your opinion, Lao Zhang.” Lu Aijun didn’t know how his son did all this. However, from this point of view alone, his son had indeed exceeded his expectations. very good. Being able to turn the tide quietly is exactly what Lu Aijun wants to see. After the meeting, the news of Mr. Lu’s success spread throughout the group in an instant. The once arrogant veteran faction suffered a setback. When President Xu left the meeting, his face was livid and he didn’t even look at Vice President Zhang. From this moment on, the elder faction began to split. And this is what Lu Yiming hopes to see. “Congratulations.” Wang Lan’s office. Wang Lan handed Lu Yiming a cup of black tea. Last time, it was going to be replaced. But Lu Yiming stopped him urgently. Wang Lan was a little confused at first. He was even a little disappointed with Lu Yiming’s timidity. But he didn’t expect that Lu Yiming was planning a bigger game. The status of the head of the logistics department and the head of the general affairs department is very different. The fact that Lu Yiming was able to maneuver himself into this position shows how sophisticated he is. Within the Lu Group, the manager of the general affairs department is second only to the vice president and can be said to be in a high position of power. This leaves a huge amount of room for Wang Lan’s future performance. “A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.” Lu Yiming felt that he still needed to give Wang Lan a shot of prevention. The victory in the stage is nothing, and Wang Lan’s current position will lead to a huge counterattack. Next, it’s time to watch Wang Lan’s performance. “I expected it. Just wait for me from now on.” There is a gleam of confidence in his eyes. Now that the stage is set, it depends on how he dances. Chapter 129: Zhang Xiao’s Change “hiss…” “Hmm…” “Oh my god.” Early this morning, all the men in the investment department went crazy. Cheng Xiao, who always wears professional attire, actually changed into a skirt, and it was the kind of skirt that could show off her figure well. this… The breath of youth is so beautiful that it cannot be described in words. Cheng Xiao is like a magnetic field, attracting countless attentions of the opposite sex. Especially this slightly rosy white face, which fascinated all the men. Cheng Xiao felt a little regretful. When she went out this morning, she received a lot of stares along the way. If she had known this would happen, she should not have dressed like that. However, when she thought of Wang Lan, Cheng Xiao’s heart became firm again. Lu Yiming likes it this way, and just because Lu Yiming likes it, Cheng Xiao is willing to do so. “Cheng Zhu, you, uh, sorry.” The original intention was to hand over the newly sorted data to Cheng Xiao for submission to General Manager Lu for review. But the first time he saw Cheng Xiao, he couldn’t take his eyes off her. “Just give it to me.” “Okay, okay.” Seeing the other party standing there in a daze, Cheng Xiao quickly reminded him. This person didn’t react until Cheng Xiao turned around and left. “Brother Wang, come back to your senses.” Finally, it was a colleague passing by who pushed Brother Wang’s arm, which brought him back to consciousness. “Ahem, it’s top quality.” Brother Wang is not a young man who has just started out. He is in his 30s and has a lot of experience. Especially in the Lu Group, there are many beauties, but it is the first time in my life that I have seen someone as stunning as Cheng Xiao. Brother Wang had to admit that Cheng Zhu’s outfit was absolutely stunning. “Brother Wang, that’s Cheng Zhu, Mr. Lu’s man.” “Nonsense, just pleasing to the eyes.” Everyone knows that Cheng Zhu can be admired from afar but not played with. But I can’t control my eyes at all. Cheng Xiao is already incredibly beautiful on ordinary days. And today, Cheng Xiao exudes the fatal charm of a woman. “Don’t mention it. Who can stand this kind of dress?” Even those female stars are not as good as Cheng Zhu. The slightly curled big waves make her look much more charming than the long straight black hair before. And this dress brings out Cheng Zhu’s strengths to the fullest. Not to mention these men, even Cheng Xiao’s mother, who saw her this morning, was dazzled. After I fell ill, I haven’t seen my daughter dress up. I vaguely remember that Cheng Xiao also loved beauty when she was a child. At that time, the couple dressed up little Cheng Xiao like a doll, and every time they went out, passers by looked at them with envy. But since I fell ill, my daughter has become a different person. Apart from school uniforms, she has never worn a pretty dress again. After entering university, I still wore ordinary clothes and was busy working every day. But the sudden change today really made Cheng’s mother happy. Could it be that my daughter has figured it out? What mother in the world doesn’t want her daughter to dress up beautifully? However, Cheng’s mother felt more melancholy in her heart. It is said that women dress up to please themselves. Who is Cheng Xiao doing this for? Cheng’s mother is not a fool. I’m afraid that person has already lived in my daughter’s heart. If the couple was in love, Cheng’s mother would of course be extremely happy. But that person had already made it clear that he only regarded Cheng Xiao as a classmate. He extended a helping hand to his classmates when they were in the most difficult times. That’s all. Since that day, my daughter has become much quieter. Cheng’s mother saw all of this. Unexpectedly, my daughter still didn’t give up. At this time, Cheng Xiao was already standing outside Lu Yiming’s office holding a report. Take a deep breath. Take several deep breaths in a row. Cheng Xiao was very nervous at this moment. All the changes in myself are because of Lu Yiming. I don’t know what Lu Yiming will look like when he sees me? He would probably like it. After all, the last time Lu Yiming looked at Minister Wang, his eyes were full of aggression. What Minister Wang can do, I can do too. Cheng Xiao kept cheering herself up. After sufficient ideological struggle, Cheng Xiao raised his hand and prepared to knock on the office door. At this time, in Lu Yiming’s office. Looking at the ringing phone, Lu Yiming was a little excited. This seemed to be the first time that Su Rongrong took the initiative to call him. I remember that even when discussing the Xiaolingtong project, it was Su Rongrong’s assistant who contacted me first. “Why did you think of calling me?” Lu Yiming felt a little amused when he answered the phone. How old are you now in your two lives combined? My mental age is probably over 60. But when he opened his mouth just now, the tone of his voice was obviously wrong. How could such a thing happen to me? If Lu Yiming hadn’t experienced it himself, he would never have believed it. Just a phone call made me so excited. But apart from the slight breathing sound on the phone, Su Rongrong did not speak. Is there something you can’t tell? “Rongrong?” Lu Yiming tried again and looked at it. “Mr. Lu, I remember I said that we are not that familiar with each other.” Su Rongrong finally spoke, but her tone was full of dissatisfaction. Only the people closest to you are qualified to call you Rongrong. This bastard always crosses the line and teases me. But having said that, Lu Yiming could tell that this time the opposition did not seem as firm as before. This is a good start. “We are partners after all.” “Boss Lu, public is public, private is private.” “Alright, then please ask President Su to call me, what’s the matter?” “Are you free?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What do you mean? Date?! “Boss Su wants to treat me to a meal?” “You wish.” Before making this call, Su Rongrong had already thought about Lu Yiming’s ability to climb up the ladder. The result was just as Su Rongrong expected. As expected, Lu Yiming started flirting again. “My dad wants to treat you to a meal.” “uncle?” “What happened in Xiangjiang last time.” Su Rongrong actually controlled her tone. However, every time Su Rongrong thought of the scene where Lu Yiming protected her at all costs, her heartstrings were always plucked. I don’t know why, but during this period of time, Lu Yiming always appears in my mind inexplicably. This damn bastard must have put a curse on himself. “Of course I’m free.” “It takes a little while.” “Um?” It’s just a meal, but it takes a little long. What does this mean? “My dad is hosting a banquet in Su City in two days.” “There’s no need to be so grand.” “Lu Yiming, what do you mean? Do you think my status is not worth it?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Indeed, never try to guess a woman’s mind. “when.” “It’s better to be today.” “today?!” Chapter 130 The Su Family Invites I see. Lu Yiming could basically guess what happened. It seems that Su Rongrong really can’t drag this on any longer. Lu Yiming guessed that Su Yunchang must have invited him a long time ago. After all, he is Su Rongrong’s savior. It was reasonable for Su Yunchang to invite me. After all, a century old family like the Su family attaches great importance to etiquette. Lu Yiming sacrificed his life to protect Su Rongrong and is the benefactor of the Su family. It was reasonable for the Su family to invite me. It’s just that Su Rongrong has been dragging it out. I guess he really can’t delay it any longer, so he called me. Lu Yiming gave a playful smile. “Inviting guests on the same day? Or in Su City, I’m afraid…” “It’s okay, if you don’t have time, forget it.” This time, Su Rongrong responded very quickly, and Lu Yiming even heard a sense of relief in her voice. “Who said I’m not free?” “Lu Yiming, didn’t you just say…” “What I mean is that it is my honor to be invited by Patriarch Su.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… So, I was teased by this bastard again? “Lu Yiming!” “When and where?” “You…will leave from my company at 3pm.” “OK.” Lu Yiming agreed immediately. Before Su Rongrong could react, Lu Yiming had already hung up the phone. Looking at the busy tone on the phone, Su Rongrong didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Lu Yiming guessed correctly. Su Rongrong really had no excuse to delay any further. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have made this call. At this moment, Cheng Xiao, who was standing outside the door, heard it clearly. Her hand, which was about to knock on the door, stopped in mid air and did not fall. So what if I changed myself? The gap between himself and Lu Yiming was visible to the naked eye. He was just feeling sorry for himself, he was always feeling sorry for himself. Her eyes were slightly red, trying hard not to let the tears flow out. After meeting Lu Yiming, Cheng Xiao became much weaker. In the past, I always gritted my teeth and didn’t dare to relax at all. Perhaps, only in darkness can I become stronger. After taking a few deep breaths, Cheng Xiao knocked on the door of Lu Yiming’s office. “Enter.” Cheng Xiao pretended to be calm and walked into Lu Yiming’s office holding the documents. “Mr. Lu, this is yesterday’s flow and data.” “Put it down.” “OK.” After Cheng Xiao put down the information, she turned and left. So what if you dress up carefully? Lu Yiming didn’t look up. Cheng Xiao saw it very carefully. The corners of Lu Yiming’s mouth remained raised. He must be in a good mood. Unfortunately, Cheng Xiao guessed wrong. It was not that Lu Yiming did not look up, but that Lu Yiming did not dare to look up. Early this morning, Lu Yiming saw Cheng Xiao in the crowd from afar. Lu Yiming knew very well who Cheng Xiao changed for. But… “By the way, how is our production line prepared?” Lu Yiming came to his senses and started to ask, but Cheng Xiao was no longer in the office. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Forget it, there’s no need to rush. According to the progress, the production line will be in place in a week at most. By then, it will be the stage of full distribution. At 3 pm, Lu Yiming drove his Ferrari into the business building where Gaoyuan Capital was located on time. At this time, Su Rongrong was already waiting at the door. “I’m flattered to be greeted by President Su in person.” Lu Yiming really didn’t expect that Su Rongrong would greet him at the entrance of the business building. He wanted to ask, when did he become so important? “hehe.” Unexpectedly, Su Rongrong sneered. “Mr. Lu, it is important for a person to know himself, but it’s a pity that you don’t have it.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “It seems that Mr. Lu has forgotten that Gaoyuan Capital does not welcome Mr. Lu.” Su Rongrong seemed to be hinting at something. Lu Yiming reacted immediately. It seems, seemingly, that this is indeed the case. He used dishonorable means to poach Wang Lan. Mr. Zhang of Gaoyuan Capital now hates himself to the core. After all, no matter how bad Wang Lan is, she can still bring huge profits to Gaoyuan Capital every year. Gaoyuan Capital suffered huge losses without Wang Lan. No wonder Su Rongrong was waiting for me here. This is because he is afraid that Mr. Zhang will fight with him to the death. “Ahem, I’m just creating a bigger stage for Wang Lan. Everyone has their own aspirations.” Lu Yiming explained with a dry laugh. The result was just a roll of the eyes from Su Rongrong. It was obviously planned for a long time. Men’s words are deceiving. “Well, it’s almost time, how about we leave now?” Lu Yiming pointed to his Ferrari. It takes one and a half hours to get from Shanghai to Suzhou. Today is Thursday, so if you want to avoid the evening rush hour, you might be able to take a tour around Suzhou. “No, I’ll take a business car.” Just kidding, it’s okay to drive a supercar for short distances, but once you get on the highway, my waist will probably fall apart. Su Rongrong is not a materialistic woman; she only has a supercar. “Then let’s go together. It’s just right that I can take a break.” Lu Yiming is really thick skinned. He is very serious about hitchhiking. “By the way, I brought the gift, just in time to move it over.” It was his first time as a guest, so Lu Yiming prepared a lot. Under Su Rongrong’s shocked gaze, Lu Yiming went back and forth three times before he finally got it done. Su Rongrong: I just want to ask, how do you manage to fit so many gift boxes in your Ferrari? Su Rongrong returned to Su City with her assistant. Even if Lu Yiming wanted to get a free ride, he could only sit in the back seat. Su Rongrong didn’t feel the slightest bit of heartache about this. It makes you want to take advantage of yourself every day. But in the end, when getting in the car, his assistant couldn’t bear the pressure from Lu Yiming and took the initiative to sit in the back seat. “You’ve got a girl to give up her seat for you, Lu Yiming. You’re really capable.” Su Rongrong was very upset. She felt that her assistant’s ability to handle pressure was not good enough. As for Lu Yiming, he sat next to Su Rongrong with peace of mind. “It’s not a high end model, and there’s no seat massage.” “hehe.” Su Rongrong didn’t know why, but every time she was with Lu Yiming, she would always get angry. It turns out that our horoscopes are incompatible! “Master, drive.” The best way to ignore Lu Yiming is to close your eyes and rest. But Su Rongrong obviously underestimated Lu Yiming’s resilience and never stopped nagging him along the way. Su Rongrong: Lu Yiming! What’s your domineering style? Can you be quiet! “Will you shut up?” “It’s a rare opportunity to relax, and I feel a little excited.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I regret it so much. If I had known this would happen, I shouldn’t have made this call. “Shall we talk?” “Do you and I have anything in common?” “I have investigated the last incident.” “Will you shut up!” Can this be said casually? Besides, there were more than two people in the car. Once the news got out, would I still be able to live as a human being? Su Rongrong glared at Lu Yiming fiercely. The latter understood what he meant and immediately made a gesture to shut up. Chapter 131 Zhuang Wanqing Su style gardens are extremely famous. There are more than 170 gardens inside and outside the city, and more than 50 of them are still in existence. The classical garden is a combination of a house and a garden, and can be appreciated, visited and lived in. As far as Lu Yiming knows, the Humble Administrator’s Garden, the Lingering Garden, the Master of the Nets Garden and Huanxiu Villa are the best of the best. However, compared with the Su family’s garden, even the Humble Administrator’s Garden, the Lingering Garden, the Master of the Nets Garden and the Huanxiu Villa are ashamed of themselves. That’s right, the garden in the Su family’s main residence is truly magnificent. “What are you looking at?” The business car stopped at the gate of the Su family’s main residence. Lu Yiming, who got out of the car, couldn’t help but take a breath. The Su family’s main residence alone is worth countless small goals. Su Rongrong was a little surprised. Looking at Lu Yiming’s expression, it was really… “What are you fighting for? It would be great if you could just lie down.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… The word I least want to hear is “lie flat”. Yes, Su Rongrong does have the capital to lie low. In fact, the Su family’s wealth is more than enough for three generations to squander. However, for Su Rongrong, her dream is to leave this garden that everyone envies. “So what if it’s bigger? It’s still just a cage.” “I really understand.” “real?” “Yes, I have had the same thought before.” “It’s different. You are a playboy, and I am independent.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Nannan is back.” The two of them had just said a few words when an excited voice was heard. The tone is gentle and pleasant, the voice arrives before the person arrives. It goes without saying that a woman with such a beautiful voice must be a great beauty. The result was naturally not beyond Lu Yiming’s expectations. The moment Zhuang Wanqing appeared, everything around her suddenly dimmed. Su Rongrong is extremely beautiful, and it seems that Su Rongrong has inherited everything from her mother. Zhuang Wanqing’s every frown and smile fully demonstrates everything that a wealthy lady should have. Zhuang Wanqing had been looking forward to it for a long time. This heartless boy didn’t come back for such a long time. Originally, Zhuang Wanqing did not agree with her daughter going to Shanghai to attend university. Given the Su family’s status, do they still need a diploma to prove their worth? But her daughter insisted, and Zhuang Wanqing could only reluctantly leave. After waiting for a long time, Su Rongrong graduated from university, but in the end, the girl chose to stay in Shanghai. It is called entrepreneurship. If his father had not advised him to support his daughter, Zhuang Wanqing would have come to Modu with his men long ago. The last time Su Yunchang failed to bring Su Rongrong back successfully, Zhuang Wanqing was so angry that she didn’t look at her husband in a good mood for more than a month. “Mom, why did you come out?” “Of course I’m going to welcome you, you little ungrateful kid. Let mom see if you’ve lost weight. I’ve always told you to take good care of yourself when you’re alone in the Magic City. Look at you, you’re all tanned.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, it has been like this since childhood, Su Rongrong said, and she has long been accustomed to it. But, could you please not show it in front of other people? Especially since Lu Yiming was right next to him. “Huh? Who is this? Oh, right, you must be Xiao Lu, Rongrong’s classmate.” Zhuang Wanqing’s gaze quickly shifted to Lu Yiming. Just one glance and Zhuang Wanqing’s eyes lit up instantly. What a handsome young man! Standing next to my daughter, they are really a perfect match. I heard from my husband that this time, thanks to Lu Yiming’s protection, my daughter was not injured. When the news from Hong Kong came back, Zhuang Wanqing was frightened. How dare someone lay hands on his own daughter? He simply doesn’t know how to live or die. If Su Yunchang hadn’t stopped her, Zhuang Wanqing might have flown to Hong Kong herself. You know, when Zhuang Wanqing was young, she was a well known figure in the circle. Ever since she married Su Yunchang, she has been able to be a good wife and help her husband. But once you make this person angry. Haha, even Su Yunchang might not be able to stop his wife’s anger. Although Lu Yiming didn’t know Su Rongrong’s mother’s family background. Lu Yiming had met Su Rongrong’s grandfather, but it was definitely not as simple as it seemed. Besides, to be worthy of the Su family, a century old family, and to be qualified to become the mistress of the Su family, Zhuang Wanqing’s family power is naturally not as ordinary as it seems. For aristocratic families, what matters is the combination of strong forces. It has to be said that Su Yunchang is lucky. After the couple got married, they have been loving and respectful to each other. Just for this reason, Su Yunchang is already a winner in life. In the previous life, Zhuang Wanqing rarely appeared. However, the power it represents is astonishing. In the previous life, although the Lu Group was overwhelmed by the revenge of the Su family, at least with the support of the big boss behind the Lu family, it could still barely resist. But after Zhuang Wanqing took action, even the big boss behind the Lu Group was forced to sacrifice the Lu Group. This shows how powerful its influence is. But now Zhuang Wanqing had a smile on her face, and there was a hint of inquiry in her eyes as she looked at Lu Yiming. “Xiao Lu, you are the first boy Rongrong brought home as a guest.” Lu Yiming: ( ^_^ ) Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Su Rongrong: What a mess! My mother’s words are too ambiguous. What if that bastard Lu Yiming misunderstood? What does it mean when you bring a boy home for the first time? It was obviously you and your father who wanted to bring the person back by yourselves. Why has it changed now? “Are you an aunt or a sister?” Very good, Lu Yiming’s ability to play dumb was not learned in vain. This little sweet mouth made Zhuang Wanqing giggle. “My child, I am Rongrong’s mother. Who do you say I am?” “Auntie, you are too young. No one will believe it if you tell others.” Su Rongrong: Haha, this dog is really good at climbing poles. They had only met for a short time, but he had already made his mother smile happily. “Okay, I’m tired, let me go in first.” No, Su Rongrong had to keep calm. Even if she didn’t let Lu Yiming reveal his playboy side, she couldn’t let her mother make any associations. You know, since Su Rongrong turned 18, Zhuang Wanqing’s greatest pleasure has been to find a good marriage for her daughter. Moreover, Zhuang Wanqing still enjoys doing this very much. Even though Su Rongrong had already rejected it sternly, Zhuang Wanqing still found many young talents. Su Rongrong couldn’t even remember how many photos she had been shown. This caused Su Rongrong to doubt her mother for a time, wondering if she wanted to marry her off as soon as possible. In this way, I can live a fairy like life with my father. Fortunately, my father doesn’t think so, otherwise I would not be able to stay in this family. “Yes, yes, let’s go home and talk about it. Let’s go home and talk about it.” I don’t know why, but Zhuang Wanqing liked Lu Yiming very much the moment she saw him. He took Lu Yiming’s arm and walked into the garden. Seeing this scene, Su Rongrong was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Chapter 132: The Heritage of a Centennial Family How does a century old family entertain guests? Well, compared to the Su family, my father is indeed what others call a ‘nouveau riche’. I don’t know how Lu Aijun would react when he knew about his son’s evaluation. The Su family’s background is really beyond Lu Yiming’s imagination. Ever since he stepped into this garden, Lu Yiming truly understood the meaning of “rich and powerful family”. “Is this the rain stone from outside the border?” The rain stones from outside Xinjiang are pure and natural, without any decoration. The rain stone from foreign countries before us, which blends in with the scenery, is definitely the best among them. “I’m not sure, but I’ve had it since I was a kid.” Su Rongrong glanced at it casually. I don’t know if I can comment on it. You know, a piece of rainstone from outside Xinjiang weighing more than 10 tons is definitely a rare treasure. In ancient times, only royal nobles were qualified to own it. Not to mention its value itself, the shipping cost alone at that time was astronomical. But the Su family actually used it as an ornamental stone. It is integrated with the rockery, and if you don’t have some appreciation ability, you may not be able to see it. What is low key luxury? Every detail in this courtyard is carefully designed. Those so called wealthy people are eager to decorate their own courtyards with jewels and precious stones. Lu Yiming was not ignorant. In his previous life, the man who was known as the richest businessman in Sijiu City even had a toilet in his home made of pure gold. But compared with the Su family, it is simply vulgar. In the guest hall, Su Yunchang had been waiting for a long time. No matter what, Lu Yiming is just a junior, so it is naturally impossible for the head of the Su family to greet him in person. Being able to wait in the living room was already a great honor for Lu Yiming. “Uncle Su, I hope you are doing well since we last met in the Magic City.” Lu Yiming stepped forward to greet him, still using the traditional method. Not to mention, this salute made Su Yunchang’s eyes light up. It has been a long time since I met such a young person who talks about ancient customs. “Humph, just pretending.” Su Rongrong secretly complained on the side. It really looks like one. If it was the first time I met Lu Yiming, I might have been fooled. I’m afraid my dad doesn’t know about Lu Yiming’s dandy ways. “Haha, don’t be so polite. This time, Rongrong invited you back. First, to thank you for saving my life, and second, to thank you for protecting Rongrong in Hong Kong.” Su Yunchang was quite satisfied with Lu Yiming, and he immediately stood up and invited Lu Yiming to take a seat. In today’s business world, there are not many people who can withstand such courtesy from the head of the Su family. Not to mention the younger generation. “Uncle Su, you are too polite. After all, it was me who invited Rongrong to go to Hong Kong with me, so I naturally have no choice but to do it.” “good.” Not everyone can sacrifice themselves to protect someone, not to mention that Lu Yiming was injured for it. The Su family must appreciate this favor. Besides, Lu Yiming saved his father in law’s life. For the Su family, it is natural to be grateful and repay the favor. “Bring the tea.” The Longjing tea from the Su family’s own tea garden is fragrant and the water is clear. These top quality teas are never sold and are basically kept for personal consumption. “How’s the tea?” “Uncle Su, you’re joking. I don’t know much about tea, so I can’t tell whether it’s good or bad.” “Haha, telling the truth is not bad.” What does it mean to love someone and love his dog? Even if Lu Yiming doesn’t know anything about tea, in Su Yunchang’s opinion, he is just a young man with a more open mind than those who pretend to know something. “Hey, isn’t this Mr. Lu? What a rare guest.” After chatting for a while, I heard a familiar voice. It was none other than Gao Wei from the telecommunications group. “Hi, I didn’t expect to meet Mr. Lu here.” Gao Wei looked excited. Yes, during this period, Gao Yan was in high spirits and was riding high. Not to mention anything else, the complete explosion of the Xiaolingtong business alone not only allowed Gao Yan to gain a firm foothold in telecommunications, but also sent a clear signal from above. In the near future, Gao Wei will take over Telecom and become the new head of the Telecom Group. You know, the head of Telecom is a senior official. Considering Gao Wei’s current age, his growth rate is definitely like a rocket. Originally, Gao Wei wanted to invite Lu Yiming these two days. Today, the PHS business is booming. How can we seize this opportunity to take the telecommunications business volume to a higher level? This requires Lu Yiming’s full cooperation. Lu Yiming has the final say on the PHS business, so even Mr. Gao needs a lot of help from the other party. However, he did not expect to “encounter” her by chance in the old house. This was indeed a pleasant surprise for Gao Yan. “Mr. Gao.” Lu Yiming also quickly stood up and shook hands with Gao Yan. “Okay, this isn’t a shopping mall, there’s no need to be so particular.” Su Yunchang smiled and waved his hand, motioning for the two to sit down. To be honest, Su Yunchang himself did not expect that the last time they met, Lu Yiming was just a rookie. But it only took a short time for him to create such a world for himself. Su Yunchang was also paying attention to the Xiaolingtong business. Although an investment of 30 million is not considered large for the Su family, it is an investment led by his daughter after all, so Su Yunchang naturally has to pay more attention to it. But he never expected that this Xiaolingtong service would really bring Su Yunchang a big surprise. If the current momentum continues, it is only a matter of time before the PHS business takes off in the country. Su Yunchang also had to sigh that young people nowadays have good vision and better abilities. And the return on the 30 million investment will be astonishingly generous. Thinking of this, Su Yunchang looked at Lu Yiming with even more satisfaction. Su Rongrong: Oh no, this look from my father. It’s dangerous. Su Rongrong felt a sense of crisis. Well, was this look a bit too much? Could it be… “Okay, stay for dinner tonight. It’s just a normal family dinner. Rongrong, please treat Xiao Lu well.” As the patriarch of the Su family, he naturally had a lot of things to deal with. Squeezing out an hour to accompany Lu Yiming was already a huge honor. As for why Su Rongrong had to entertain him well, it was probably… “Okay, I have to rush back to the Magic City too. Mr. Lu, let’s find a chance to get together again next week.” What Gao Wei was most concerned about was the production volume of PHS. After all, the current volume of goods is far from enough for the huge market. After the two of them made an agreement, Gao Wei left with a smile on his face. In a blink of an eye, Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong were the only ones left in the front hall. “How did you perform?” “Lu Yiming, you are just an actor.” “Your evaluation is really not low.” “Do you have any shame?” Su Rongrong can guarantee that Lu Yiming has been “acting” ever since he got off the car. But, he actually fooled his parents. Chapter 133: CP “Can you look at me without tinted glasses?” Lu Yiming smiled bitterly. As expected, he had to pay for the sins he had committed even if he had to kneel down. “hehe.” Su Rongrong sneered. Is this a sentimental character? “Take a look at this.” Lu Yiming took out the previous investigation results from his bag. “What’s this?” “I promise you the truth.” At this moment, Lu Yiming looked sincere. Su Rongrong took the file bag from Lu Yiming with doubt. Half an hour later. “Shameless.” “It’s quite shameless. I didn’t expect that they would use such means.” “I mean you!” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Actually, I am also half a victim.” “hehe.” Su Rongrong sneered. Yes, victim! “Then tell me, what is this ‘obedient water’? And don’t tell me you didn’t know about it beforehand.” “Yes, I admit that I was indeed tempted before, but I didn’t expect that he also drugged me.” No wonder in the last life, Lu Yiming ignored Su Rongrong’s pleas and acted like a beast. It turned out that Zhang Zun was afraid that he would regret it halfway, so he even added medicine into his wine. Now that I think about it, Zhang Zun was determined to completely offend the Su family. “Lu Yiming, you are shameless.” “I like you, what’s wrong? Is it wrong to like someone?” Faced with Lu Yiming’s questioning, Su Rongrong was completely dumbfounded. If I remember correctly, this was the first time that Lu Yiming made his attitude clear in front of me. But… How can I forgive someone who uses such means? “Yes, I admit that I was indeed blinded by greed, but I am serious. I will handle this matter. Also, I almost offended you. Tell me, what do you want me to do?” “you…” This is too overbearing. It was obviously you, Lu Yiming, who made the mistake first, but now you are still asking yourself what to do? At this moment, Su Rongrong’s heart was completely confused. “Just don’t show up in my world.” “impossible.” “you…” Su Rongrong was almost laughing out of anger. She gave the answer herself, but you, Lu Yiming, couldn’t do it. “Don’t say anything in anger. You know very well that we are still partners now. I can’t disappear.” “call…” Su Rongrong glared at Lu Yiming fiercely. Why? I should hate him. However, at this moment Su Rongrong discovered that she no longer had any hatred in her heart. When did this happen? Was it when Lu Yiming was protecting her? Or when Lu Yiming suddenly broke into her life without any warning? “I’m a bit confused right now.” “It’s okay. I’ll give you some time. However, the relationship between us has long been complicated and cannot be severed. I hope you can understand that I really have no intention of hurting you, not now and not in the future.” “I have no idea.” Su Rongrong shook her head. To her, everything changed too fast. Just like Lu Yiming said, this time, both Lu Yiming and himself were plotted against. But even if she knew the truth, could Su Rongrong pretend that nothing had happened? Obviously, he was full of hatred, but at this moment, when Lu Yiming revealed everything, he could not hate him anymore. “Perhaps, we can get to know each other again?” “I’m tired.” Su Rongrong closed her eyes. I really don’t know how to face Lu Yiming. For Su Rongrong, this may also be a form of escape. “I can give you time.” Lu Yiming stopped talking and sat next to Su Rongrong. Just sit there quietly. No matter how long it takes, Lu Yiming can wait. At this time, in the garden in the distance. “how’s it going?” With a curious look on her face, Zhuang Wanqing kept looking in the direction of the front hall. It’s a pity that the distance was too far and I couldn’t see clearly what was happening. “Madam, Miss and Mr. Lu are in the living room all the time, so we can’t get too close.” “Oh, really, my daughter finally brought a boy back home, but I don’t know if it’s what I thought.” Zhuang Wanqing said that she was serious about watching the drama online. It’s a pity that I don’t know what my daughter’s attitude is. “Madam, this is not a good idea. If the master finds out.” “Go, what do you know? He is so sullen that he can’t even say a word for a long time. My daughter inherited this. She doesn’t even have a complete youth. Is she going to be an old maid?” Uh, it can be heard that Zhuang Wanqing is quite dissatisfied with her husband. If I hadn’t taken the initiative back then, there might not be Su Rongrong. The father and daughter have such similar personalities, and they are both so slow when it comes to feelings. “Tell me, am I tired as a mother? I have to care about everything.” “lady…” “Go, bring me a stool. Oh, and bring me some melon seeds.” Uh, I just want to ask, is this really okay? Who would have thought that the mistress of the Su family would be so out of touch. It seems that I have too little fun in my daily life and I am about to get sick. As for Su Rongrong at this time, she closed her eyes tightly and did not open them at all. As if this could help me escape reality. Lu Yiming, who was standing aside, also had a look of being at a loss whether to laugh or cry. I never thought that Su Rongrong had such a side to her. It’s really cute. “Forget it. Whether you believe it or not, I really won’t hurt you again. Please rest assured about this.” Lu Yiming sighed. Pretend to stand up. “hiss…” “What’s wrong? Has the wound opened again?” Hearing the sound of Lu Yiming taking a breath, Su Rongrong really couldn’t pretend anymore. He quickly opened his eyes and asked. Su Rongrong: I definitely haven’t forgiven Lu Yiming. I’m just concerned about Lu Yiming’s injuries. After all, Lu Yiming was injured because of me, so it is only natural for me to care about him. Yes, that’s it. I have to say that when it comes to deceiving herself, Su Rongrong is definitely a master. “It’s okay. My legs are numb from sitting for too long.” Lu Yiming couldn’t help but smile. I know you can’t bear to do it. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Shameless, scoundrel! Looking at Lu Yiming’s rogue smile, Su Rongrong wished she could just take action. “Don’t worry, the hospital has checked it out and it’s recovering well.” “Who cares about this anymore?” “Okay, I’ll just report it so you don’t feel uneasy.” “Lu Yiming, I told you, I don’t care whether you live or die.” “Yes, whatever you say, Miss Su, is right.” “Are you annoying?” “I shut up.” “Too late!” To Zhuang Wanqing, the interaction between the two seemed like flirting. “Tsk tsk, there’s something interesting going on.” Su Wanqing was eating melon seeds while observing their every move. “Go, tell the kitchen to prepare a heartier dinner.” Maybe the person inside is the future son in law of the Su family. Chapter 134: Sudden Incident “Xiao Lu, would you like to drink something tonight?” The wine that Su Yunchang took out was naturally extraordinary. For the Su family, Feitian Moutai is naturally nothing, but Feitian Moutai from the state owned winery era is still relatively rare. After more than ten years, the price of this wine was raised to more than 500,000 yuan, which can be considered a serious cellar collection. “Ahem…” Zhuang Wanqing: Hey, you’re getting excited, right? After Zhuang Wanqing and Su Yunchang got married, they had three rules: the man could not avoid socializing outside, but when at home, Su Yunchang was not allowed to drink any alcohol. Today, Su Yunchang actually dared to make an exception while Lu Yiming was here. “This isn’t the first time Xiao Lu has come here, and he’s our family’s benefactor. This is a rare opportunity.” Su Yunchang gave a dry laugh. With this expression, how can he still have the spirit of the head of the Su family? “It won’t happen again.” “Okay.” “Dad, he’s still recovering and can’t drink.” Su Yunchang: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… So even though your mother agreed, your little cotton padded jacket is still leaking? Wait, why does my daughter care so much about Lu Yiming? Yes, Su Yunchang is indeed optimistic about Lu Yiming. Among the younger generation, Lu Yiming is considered to be a leader. But the problem is, this is just pure appreciation and has nothing to do with my daughter. Su Yunchang is not Zhuang Wanqing, and he will never ship his daughter’s CP. Even at this moment, Su Yunchang’s eyes looking at Lu Yiming suddenly became much sharper. Good, this kid actually wants to ‘steal’! “Uncle, I…” “Well, then I won’t drink it.” The intimacy in his tone was gone, and after replying coldly, Su Yunchang sat down directly. This time it was Lu Yiming’s turn to be dumbfounded. What’s going on? I was just about to say it’s okay, it’s good to drink less. result… The difference in attitude before and after is too big. “Xiao Lu, don’t pay attention to him. He’s in menopause. This is wild mushroom from Yunnan. It’s rare and delicious. Try it.” Su Yunchang: Menopause? I’m not even 50, okay? Su Rongrong: What happened? Why did the atmosphere suddenly become so weird? Zhuang Wanqing: Haha! If you dare to drive me away, try that. I won’t let you get into bed tonight. Lu Yiming: Are wild mushrooms poisonous? Will they cause hallucinations? In order to entertain Lu Yiming, the Su family prepared a rich family dinner. The confidence of the century old family was also reflected. In general banquets, fish, shrimp and crab are the main dishes. The more seafood there is, the more it shows the host’s sincerity. If you want something a little more upscale, choose bird’s nest, abalone and shark’s fin. But the Su family’s family dinner is different. There is basically no seafood. They all look like ordinary home cooked dishes, but a lot of thought went into their preparation. Side dishes from all over the world are airlifted in on the same day. The main focus is health. Mushrooms from Yunnan, bamboo shoots from Tianshan Mountains, yaks from the plateau, and knife fish from the Yangtze River. “Xiao Lu, eat more.” Zhuang Wanqing seemed very enthusiastic. After the meal, Lu Yiming was really full. However, judging from Zhuang Wanqing’s expression, she seemed very satisfied with Lu Yiming’s performance tonight. this… Although we ate a lot, the atmosphere of the meal was quite awkward. During the meal, Zhuang Wanqing kept urging people to eat. Su Yunchang’s main idea is not to talk while eating and not to talk while sleeping. Could it be the rule of a big family? The most embarrassed person was Su Rongrong. What does my mother mean? The main focus is on the mother in law visiting the son in law? No matter how slow Su Rongrong was, she noticed something was wrong at this moment. This is a complete misunderstanding. I really don’t have this intention, even if I do… it’s just… No, my mind is getting more and more confused. During this period, Su Rongrong winked at her mother many times, but her mother thought her daughter was worried that Lu Yiming would be embarrassed, so she prepared a bunch of dishes for Lu Yiming. “Here, hawthorn soup, good for digestion.” After dinner, Lu Yiming strolled in the Su family’s back garden for a full hour. In the end, Su Rongrong had someone prepare some digestive soup and send it over. “Ahem, Auntie is quite enthusiastic.” “Don’t get me wrong, my mom is like this, warm to everyone.” Fearing that Lu Yiming might misunderstand, Su Rongrong quickly started a conversation. Lu Yiming also smiled and took a sip of the hawthorn soup. It was sour and sweet, and it not only helped digestion but also warmed the stomach. “You’re going back tomorrow?” “Well, it’s a rare opportunity for me to come back and talk to my mother.” Su Rongrong is a filial child. If it weren’t for what happened in her previous life, she would never… Uh, okay, let’s not talk about the past life. “Then I’ll go first.” Lu Yiming plans to stay in a hotel. “There is a guest room at home, if you don’t mind…” “No problem, thank you for your help.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… How could I have forgotten that this bastard is very thick skinned. What I am best at is climbing up the pole. I haven’t finished speaking yet, can you please be a little more reserved? “I’ll tell Uncle Wang later.” “Thank you for your help.” Stay overnight at Su’s house. Not everyone can enjoy such treatment. This is the old house of the Su family. Although there are many guest rooms, the Su family’s old house never allows outsiders to stay overnight except relatives. This time, Lu Yiming made the Su family break the rules. To be honest, Su Rongrong didn’t know why she suggested that Lu Yiming stay at the Su family. Could it be that Su Rongrong really listened to what Lu Yiming said to her in the afternoon? Or is there some other reason? “Don’t get me wrong. I just want you to recover from your injuries. It doesn’t mean anything.” It’s another day of recuperation. This is almost becoming Su Rongrong’s excuse. It was obviously almost healed. But Su Rongrong repeatedly used this as an excuse to care about Lu Yiming. Isn’t that against her will? Su Rongrong lowered her head, her face slightly red. Only a fool would believe such an excuse. What’s wrong with me? Why did she lose her composure in front of Lu Yiming? However, my wish to stay at the Su family tonight may be difficult to achieve. Lu Yiming’s cell phone rang at this time. Unknown number. Lu Yiming didn’t want to answer it at first. However, the other party persisted. When Lu Yiming answered the phone, his expression changed instantly. “Got it. I’ll be back right away. No matter what method you use, you must make sure that no one is hurt.” Lu Yiming hung up the phone with a gloomy face. “What’s up?” “Feel sorry.” They both spoke at the same time. “Go and do your thing.” “Can you lend me a car? I need to rush back to the Magic City.” “I’ll ask the driver to take you.” It was late at night and it was an urgent matter, so Su Rongrong was worried about her safety on the road. “Thank you.” Lu Yiming thanked him and immediately walked quickly towards the door. The back figure looks very anxious. Soon, a Maybach stopped in front of Lu Yiming. “Say sorry to my uncle and aunt for me.” “Just do your thing.” Watch the Maybach disappear around the corner. Su Rongrong’s expression became slightly gloomy. It seemed that her name was mentioned on the phone just now. Su Rongrong: Su Rongrong, what on earth are you thinking about? I have warned myself repeatedly. But why can’t I control myself and am always influenced by him? Please reward me for the latest updates. Chapter 135 Critical Illness Notice At the entrance of the emergency room of Huashan Hospital in Shanghai. Cheng Xiao sat at the door of the emergency room in a daze. There was no expression on his face. Why is this happening? Everything was going well for my mother after she was discharged from the hospital. Why did it suddenly turn out like this? Two hours ago, Cheng Xiao returned home tired after a busy day at work. Her mother did not greet her at the door as usual. “mom?” “You’re back?” Mother Cheng’s voice sounded a little tired, and she still didn’t come out of the room. At that time, Cheng Xiao did not realize the seriousness of the matter. Cheng’s mother also specifically instructed that dinner was in the microwave. Cheng Xiao heated up dinner, but was not in the mood to eat. All she could think about was Lu Yiming’s excited expression after he received the call. By the time Cheng Xiao came to her senses, an hour had passed. It’s time to wipe mother’s body. Cheng Xiao prepared some hot water and opened the door to her mother’s room. The next moment, the basin of water in his hand poured down. “mom!” Mother Cheng fell beside the bed. This scene scared Cheng Xiao. I quickly dialed 120, and 20 minutes later, the ambulance drove into Huashan Hospital. “The situation is critical, organize rescue!” Cheng’s mother lost her heartbeat briefly when she was on the ambulance. If it hadn’t been for timely rescue, I’m afraid he wouldn’t have made it to the hospital. The injection of adrenaline could only temporarily pull Cheng’s mother back from the brink of death. The emergency doctor contacted the senior doctor immediately. Cheng’s mother was sent to the emergency room immediately. As for Cheng Xiao, she was stopped outside the emergency room. Cheng Xiao, who was distraught, just leaned against the wall in a daze. At this moment, Cheng Xiaoxiao’s mind went blank. Although my mother has always been in poor health, there has never been such an emergency. At this moment, Cheng Xiao had no one to rely on. strong. Tell yourself to be strong. I am my mother’s last hope. Ten minutes later, the hospital issued a critical illness notice. Cheng Xiao: No, nothing will happen. It will definitely be fine. I have persisted for so long just because I want my mother to live well. But at this moment, Cheng Xiao’s faith was collapsing. On the highway. “Please drive faster.” “Mr. Lu…” “Save people.” “clear.” The driver stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and the Maybach’s twelve cylinder engine roared. Lu Yiming received a call from the hospital. Cheng’s mother has an appointment at Huashan Hospital. The attending physician knew very well that this was a patient entrusted by Lu Yiming, and if anything happened, Lu Yiming would definitely not let it go. So as soon as Cheng’s mother was sent here, her attending physician contacted Lu Yiming. Give full support to treat the patient. These are Lu Yiming’s original words. No matter how much money it costs, no matter what the price is, we must go all out. Lu Yiming frowned. Why didn’t Cheng Xiao tell me about such a big thing? Just like in the previous life, I have to shoulder everything by myself. Is it impossible to change a character that is gentle on the outside but strong on the inside? The journey was an hour and a half, and the driver took Lu Yiming to the hospital in 50 minutes. Watching Lu Yiming rush into the hospital. At the door of the emergency room, Lu Yiming saw Cheng Xiao squatting on the ground with an expressionless face. Even though Lu Yiming was standing in front of Cheng Xiao at this moment, the other party did not react at all. The original anger disappeared in an instant. Lu Yiming squatted silently in front of Cheng Xiao. “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.” No response. “Cheng Xiao?” Lu Yiming reached out and patted Cheng Xiao’s arm. Cheng Xiao finally responded. His empty eyes met Lu Yiming’s face. It’s him. Why is he here? “Auntie will be fine.” “Wow…” Cheng Xiao, who kept telling herself to be strong, completely broke down at this moment. Tears flowed like they were free. I cried my heart out and was heartbroken. Why? Why, why doesn’t God want to let me go? At this moment, Cheng Xiao seemed so weak and helpless. “Don’t worry, I’m here, I will protect you.” This sentence hit Cheng Xiao’s heart. The next moment, Cheng Xiao threw herself into Lu Yiming’s arms. Continue to vent your grievances. Soon, Lu Yiming’s chest was wet with tears. “I thought you didn’t care about me anymore, you didn’t care about me anymore!” “No, Auntie will be fine.” “I’m scared. I’m so scared.” “Be obedient, and everything will be fine.” After a long time, Cheng Xiao was silent, leaving only soft sobs. “Cheng Xiao? Cheng Xiao?! Doctor!” Noticing Cheng Xiao’s abnormality, Lu Yiming instantly became anxious. At this time, Cheng’s mother’s life or death is uncertain, and Cheng Xiao has fainted again. What should be done? Hearing Lu Yiming’s cry, the doctor rushed over immediately. Lu Yiming picked up Cheng Xiao horizontally and, under the doctor’s guidance, sent the unconscious Cheng Xiao to the clinic. “Mr. Lu, don’t worry. We have just checked. The patient’s mood swings were too great, coupled with low blood sugar, which led to his coma.” The doctor checked and found no major problems, so he gave Cheng Xiao a glucose drip, and he should wake up soon. “What’s going on with Auntie?” “this…” The doctor hesitated to speak. “Tell me the truth.” “The patient’s condition is not very good. The disease has recurred severely. We don’t know why this happened yet.” “Is there still a chance?” “It’s hard to say. This time it’s very dangerous. The director has tried many methods, but it seems to be ineffective now.” “Mr. Lu, please ask your family members to be mentally prepared.” The doctor sighed. “Is there no other solution?” Lu Yiming still didn’t give up. If Cheng’s mother died, it would be a huge blow to Cheng Xiao. If I were to live my life over again, how could I watch tragedy happen again? “Unless we find a kidney source now.” There are so many patients across the country waiting for kidneys, but it is not easy to find one. Given Cheng’s mother’s current situation, she either needs a kidney transplant or just wait to die. Double renal failure has reached an irreversible point. Even with a blood transfusion, I can’t sustain it. “Where is the matching kidney source? We have been looking for it for such a long time! No matter how much it costs, I just want the patient to live.” “This…Mr. Lu, this is no longer a matter of money, we…” Faced with the furious Lu Yiming, the doctor was helpless. Many times, medicine is not omnipotent. Looking at Cheng Xiao lying on the hospital bed, Lu Yiming couldn’t imagine how Cheng Xiao would be able to hold on if she woke up and heard such bad news. No, we have to find a way. This is all what I owe Cheng Xiao. An angry Lu Yiming punched the wall. For the first time, I felt my own incompetence. I can’t even protect Cheng Xiao. After his rebirth, Lu Yiming felt for the first time that the development of things was out of his control. But at this moment, Lu Yiming’s cell phone rang without any warning. Chapter 136 Lending a helping hand Half an hour ago. Su family. “What happened to Xiao Lu? We were chatting just now.” Zhuang Wanqing looked confused. They were apparently supporting this couple just now, so why did they suddenly leave? “My girl, I’m not saying anything bad about you, but Xiao Lu is still our guest after all. It’s not our Su family’s way of entertaining guests to drive him out in the middle of the night.” “What a mess! What did my daughter do wrong? Besides, she has to leave on her own accord. Can we still force her to stay?” “Hey, what do you mean? I’m being unreasonable, right?” Well, before Su Rongrong could say anything, the couple started arguing first. “Alright, it’s probably something urgent. Our daughter is not indifferent to the importance of things. Besides, this Lu Yiming is definitely not a good match.” “What do you mean? The girl is so old and she’s still in a relationship. I think this is all your fault. You usually keep such a close eye on your daughter.” “I’m just worried that my daughter will be deceived.” Although the Su family is a century old family, they still care about their daughter’s happiness. Su Yunchang and Zhuang Wanqing decided from the beginning that their daughter’s marriage would never be a crappy arranged marriage. What era is this? As long as my daughter likes it, that’s enough. Everything is based on my daughter’s future happiness. However, Su Yunchang was not optimistic if the other half was Lu Yiming. It’s not that there is anything wrong with Lu Yiming, but Lu Yiming is too outstanding. I’m worried that my daughter won’t be able to afford it in the future. For men, being too outstanding is not necessarily a good thing. There are too many people who are thinking about her. Besides, my daughter is usually quiet and lonely. If she gets married in the future, she is not the type to coax a man. It is best to find someone who is obedient. Of course, it would be even better if he is a son in law who lives with the wife’s family. “Mom and Dad, what nonsense are you talking about? There is nothing between Lu Yiming and me.” “real?” Zhuang Wanqing expressed her disbelief. They were clearly flirting in the afternoon, and now she said there was nothing? Did she really think she was blind? Besides, the look in Xiao Lu’s eyes when he looked at his daughter couldn’t be hidden at all. I guess it’s because I’m a silly girl who doesn’t understand feelings and I haven’t realized it yet. “There is really nothing, and there will be nothing.” Su Rongrong expressed her attitude coldly. Yes, although the “misunderstanding” between himself and Lu Yiming has been resolved, it does not mean that he will accept Lu Yiming. Just as her father said, Su Rongrong also acknowledged Lu Yiming’s excellence. But such a Lu Yiming could not bring a sense of security to Su Rongrong. Women are selfish when it comes to feelings, and Su Rongrong is no exception. There are too many beautiful women around Lu Yiming. If I really had to be with Lu Yiming, I wouldn’t be able to accept it calmly. Especially her. Just now on the phone, Su Rongrong keenly caught Cheng Xiao’s name. Su Rongrong is absolutely confident about her appearance. If we have to find someone who can match Su Rongrong in appearance, I’m afraid from childhood to adulthood, the only one is Cheng Xiao. Moreover, Cheng Xiao is now Lu Yiming’s assistant. Even though the two of them were together day and night, Su Rongrong still didn’t have such confidence. Su Rongrong couldn’t be unaware of the principle that those who are close to water get the moon first. “Look, my daughter has said it herself. Okay, let’s stop worrying about it.” “Hey, why did you just leave like that when all was fine?” To be honest, Zhuang Wanqing is really optimistic about Lu Yiming. There are not many young talents in this younger generation who are worthy of his daughter, and it is good that Lu Yiming has appeared now. Could this be what they call a destiny without destiny? “Okay, my daughter is still young, don’t worry about it.” “Hubby, what’s the emergency that Xiao Lu has to rush back to the Magic City overnight?” “Why do you worry about other people’s affairs?” “No, I’m just curious.” Zhuang Wanqing still wanted to save the situation, so she called the driver despite Su Yunchang’s objection. “What? Went to the hospital? Is someone in Xiao Lu’s family sick?” After hearing the driver’s feedback, Zhuang Wanqing became a little anxious. If someone in her family was sick, she should naturally rush back. What does this mean? It means that Lu Yiming is filial enough, which is a good thing. As for the driver, he was confused for a long time. Well, should I tell the truth? After all, Lu Yiming contacted many people along the way, including well known experts. The driver listened along the way and basically understood the whole story. However, the ones who were sick were not Lu Yiming’s family members, but… “Why are you hesitating?” “This, ma’am, is not Mr. Lu’s family member. It seems to be Mr. Lu’s friend.” “friend?” “Well, to be precise, it’s my friend’s mother.” Zhuang Wanqing was even more confused. Ten minutes later, Zhuang Wanqing hung up the phone speechlessly. She glanced at her husband awkwardly. It seems, perhaps, as if, I really did match them up at random? “You said this Xiao Lu too, ah, forget it, just pretend I didn’t say anything before.” This Lu Yiming didn’t fight for himself, but for a woman, he rushed back to the Magic City overnight. No, if my daughter really gets together with him, she will suffer so much in the future. Zhuang Wanqing immediately changed her attitude. This scene is really… “mom…” “Stop talking, girl. We don’t want men like this. Don’t worry, there are many good men in the world. Are you afraid that no one will pursue the eldest lady of our Su family?” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What a mess? “No, Mom, I want to ask you for a favor.” “What’s the matter?” “Don’t you have any special channels? I just want to ask if you can contact a kidney donor?” “Well?” Zhuang Wanqing was dumbfounded. What was going on? Why does my daughter always do what she wants? Zhuang Wanqing naturally has channels to contact kidney sources. The banker originally started out in the health system. But, logically speaking, shouldn’t this girl be my daughter’s love rival? “Mom, don’t overthink it. Cheng Xiao really has a hard time.” Su Rongrong just told him what she knew about Cheng Xiao in a factual manner. In order to pay for her mother’s medical treatment, Cheng Xiao worked three jobs during college. This alone is enough to make him worthy of Su Rongrong’s respect. No matter what kind of relationship there is between Cheng Xiao and Lu Yiming. Knowing that Cheng Xiao’s mother was being rescued, Su Rongrong absolutely could not sit idly by. “Hey, hearing what you said, this girl is indeed suffering.” Zhuang Wanqing didn’t expect that there was such a tortuous story behind this. It’s hard to comment at the moment. “Okay, the girl asked you for help, can you refuse?” In the end, it was Su Yunchang’s words that woke Zhuang Wanqing up. Yes, as parents, don’t we all hope that our daughter can always maintain this kindness? Zhuang Wanqing picked up the phone and got everything done in ten minutes. “Okay, it’s done. Curry does have a pair. It will be delivered in two hours at most.” Chapter 137 Subconscious Tenderness Lu Yiming used many connections but was unable to arrange a kidney source in time. Just when I was at a loss, Su Rongrong called. “The kidney source has been arranged. Let the hospital prepare it.” This simple sentence moved Lu Yiming deeply. “I…” “No more talking, I have something else to do.” Su Rongrong herself didn’t know what her mood was at the moment. I don’t even know how to face Lu Yiming. Perhaps, he simply didn’t want to hear Lu Yiming’s voice. Feelings are selfish, and Su Rongrong is no exception. “I’ll explain it to you.” “unnecessary.” There was a busy tone on the phone. Lu Yiming held the phone, stunned for a moment, and immediately took action. The attending physician was informed of the kidney source. The doctor was also surprised. He was worthy of being President Lu, as if he had such connections. You know, kidney resources have always been very tight, and it’s useless even if you have money. “Don’t worry, Mr. Lu, we will do our best.” As long as the kidney source arrives, the surgery can be arranged immediately. Huashan Hospital has invited the best renal surgery expert to perform the operation. All that’s left from now on is waiting. I have done everything I should do, and the rest can only be left to the doctors and God. Lu Yiming returned to the ward where Cheng Xiao was. Looking at Cheng Xiao, who looked haggard on the hospital bed, a hint of pity flashed in Lu Yiming’s eyes. After calming down, Lu Yiming understood clearly. Cheng Xiao doesn’t want to disturb her life. Even though such a big thing happened, Cheng Xiao still chose to bear it on her own silently. “What a fool.” In this life, even if they cannot be together, Lu Yiming will not leave Cheng Xiao alone. The woman in front of me took everything on herself, regardless of whether she could handle it or not. What if I were a step late? Lu Yiming didn’t want Cheng Xiao’s life to end in tragedy. I don’t know how long it took, but Cheng Xiao finally opened her confused eyes. The ceiling is white and the smell of disinfectant fills my nose. Everything is so familiar. Why am I in the hospital? Wait, mother… Cheng Xiao reacted and struggled to get up. But he found that his arm seemed to be pressed by something. The only physical strength he had at the moment was not enough to support any large movements. Cheng Xiao turned her head and saw Lu Yiming lying on the bed. It’s him. The memories keep coming back. Yes, he arrived at my most desperate moment. Hold yourself in your arms and let yourself vent your grievances. I fainted in Lu Yiming’s arms. At this moment, looking at Lu Yiming sleeping soundly, Cheng Xiao felt a warm feeling in her heart. He never lets anyone down when he is needed most. He was obviously with Su Rongrong. But still rushed to the hospital. Cheng Xiao didn’t know how to face Lu Yiming. “woke up.” Lu Yiming felt Cheng Xiao’s movements and quickly opened his eyes. “Mr. Lu, I…” “It’s okay. I haven’t eaten for a long time, and my mood swings are too severe.” “Where’s my mom? My mom…” “Don’t worry, the kidney has been delivered and the operation is underway now.” The consent form was still signed by Lu Yiming. Cheng Xiao is in a coma and no other relatives can be contacted. Finally, Lu Yiming signed his name on the consent form for the surgery. Although it was not in compliance with regulations, the hospital chose to turn a blind eye for Lu Yiming’s sake. “Thanks.” “In fact, I didn’t find the kidney source.” It was not his own credit, so there was no need for Lu Yiming to take credit for it. “It’s Su Rongrong. She found a connection.” “I…” Cheng Xiao didn’t know how to answer. It was Su Rongrong, it was actually Su Rongrong. I owe you so much for this favor. I can’t afford it at all. “Forget it, don’t think too much. Su Rongrong is also your classmate. We should help each other.” Lu Yiming consoled him. Cheng Xiao is already worried enough, and if I think about it more, I’m afraid she won’t be able to bear it. “By the way, I prepared some porridge. Wait a minute, I’ll heat it up.” Cheng Xiao didn’t eat much that day, which was one of the reasons why she fainted. Lu Yiming bought lean meat porridge at the small shop in front of the hospital. This was also Cheng Xiao’s favorite in her previous life. He skillfully put the porridge into the microwave. “I want to go see my mom.” “Still in surgery.” “I’ll go wait outside the operating room.” I almost lost my only relative today. Cheng Xiao naturally wanted to wait at the door of the operating room so that she could hear news about her mother first. “The doctor said you need to rest.” “Mr. Lu, please.” Cheng Xiao has been very strong over the years. Even if she was forced into a desperate situation, she would not ask for help easily. At this moment, the big watery eyes were staring at Lu Yiming closely. So weak and delicate, as if it would be blown down by the wind at any moment. “Drink the porridge first.” Lu Yiming knew that he couldn’t persuade Cheng Xiao. You can go, but you have to drink the porridge first, otherwise you won’t be able to hold on. “good.” Lu Yiming scooped up a spoonful of porridge with a spoon and put it to his lips to test the temperature. Just like when Cheng Xiao was sick in the previous life. This is a rare warm moment in the previous life. It is also one of the few beautiful moments in Cheng Xiao’s previous life that she can remember and miss. However, at this moment, it seems a little… Looking at Lu Yiming’s natural movements, Cheng Xiao’s pretty face turned red instantly. this… Such an intimate action made Cheng Xiao distracted at the moment. “What’s wrong? The temperature is just right.” Perhaps he noticed something was wrong with Cheng Xiao, so Lu Yiming asked subconsciously. “No…no.” “Then drink some.” Lu Yiming didn’t feel that there was anything wrong, it was just a subconscious action. With Lu Yiming’s cooperation, Cheng Xiao drank most of the porridge until she could not drink any more. Only then did Lu Yiming stop with satisfaction. “Is it okay now?” “Wait, I’ll borrow a wheelchair.” “I can do that.” “obedient.” It’s the phrase ‘be obedient’ again. This word seems to have magic power for Cheng Xiao. Cheng Xiao really just lay on the bed like this, waiting obediently for Lu Yiming to come back. Cheng Xiao didn’t know what was wrong with her? Why is everything Lu Yiming says right? Cheng Xiao even felt that she had lost herself in Lu Yiming’s tenderness. It’s a pity that this man doesn’t belong to me. “Don’t worry, the hospital has invited the best professor to perform the surgery, and Auntie will be fine.” “I trust you.” For this operation, the hospital invited Vice President Lu from the Shanghai Center. Known as the God of Surgery. A miracle worker in the medical field. The operation lasted four hours. At this time, Lu Yiming was silently staying by Cheng Xiao’s side, never leaving her side. Until the lights in the operating room went out. Chapter 138: Disappointment in Love, Success in Business The operation was very successful, and Cheng Xiao finally felt relieved. No matter what the process is, the ending is finally good. Cheng’s mother was sent to the ICU. Cheng Xiao doesn’t need to worry about the cost, Lu Yiming has already paid enough in advance. However, for Cheng Xiao, this kindness is something she may never be able to repay in her lifetime. “The only thing you need to think about now is to get your body back in shape as soon as possible.” “I can go to work tomorrow.” “You’ll have a week.” “Mr. Lu…” Lu Yiming did not give Cheng Xiao a chance to continue. Turned around and left the ward. Originally, Cheng Xiao didn’t need to be hospitalized at all, but Lu Yiming still arranged a hospitalization for Cheng Xiao for a physical examination. In her previous life, Cheng Xiao’s health was not very good. Lu Yiming didn’t want Cheng Xiao to repeat the same mistake. When we left the hospital, the sun was shining brightly. [Everything went well, the operation was very successful, thank you] Lu Yiming sent a text message to Su Rongrong. Unfortunately, no reply came. It was like a stone falling into the sea. Lu Yiming rubbed his slightly swollen forehead and sighed helplessly. And the Su family at this moment. Su Rongrong held the phone in her hand for a long time. I don’t know what he is thinking. “Come back.” Zhuang Wanqing saw her daughter’s actions and felt very uncomfortable. As someone who has experienced this, Zhuang Wanqing knew that this was a sign of a girl’s love, but her daughter just didn’t realize it. Maybe it’s just as my husband said, Lu Yiming is good in every way except that he is not suitable for his daughter. “No.” Su Rongrong put down the phone expressionlessly. No one could guess what Su Rongrong was thinking at this moment. “Mom, I want to eat plum cake.” “Shall we do it together later?” “OK.” Su Rongrong smiled back, but in Zhuang Wanqing’s eyes, although the smile was still moving, it was a pity that it was no longer as bright as usual. For the next period of time, Su Rongrong seemed to be deliberately avoiding Lu Yiming. Su Rongrong did not even attend the agreed meeting, but asked her assistant to attend on her behalf. These behaviors also made Lu Yiming extremely helpless. Most girls are easy to please. Either give a bag or give jewelry. But Su Rongrong is completely immune to these. During college, Lu Yiming’s sugar coated offensive, which always worked, failed in front of Su Rongrong. How to appease Su Rongrong is definitely a difficult problem for Lu Yiming. The key point is that Su Rongrong now doesn’t give Lu Yiming any chance at all. Lu Yiming hinted at it several times, both explicitly and implicitly. Su Rongrong’s assistant must have understood what Lu Yiming meant. However, every time I reported the situation to President Su, there was no further follow up. Su Rongrong’s assistant also had a bitter look on his face. What was the situation like being stuck in the middle? You two big guys are having a quarrel, could you please stop dragging me down? It is said that if you fail in love, you will succeed in business. This statement is indeed correct. The production line of Xiaolingtong has been debugged and put into trial operation. The quality of the produced PHS fully complies with relevant domestic regulations. In some aspects, they are even ahead of imported products. This is undoubtedly great news for all three parties. The “hunger marketing” designed by Lu Yiming also achieved great success. On the first day after the sales restrictions were lifted, major telecom outlets were packed with customers. This time, Gao Yan also learned his lesson. By planning everything in advance, sales speed increased by as much as 30 percent. Lu Yiming opened up another battlefield. That is the concept of offline franchise stores. Haiyang and Zhang Bing’s first directly operated store was an unprecedented success. In a short period of time, not only did he get all his investment back, but he also made a fortune. Many small business owners are also very optimistic about the future of Xiaolingtong. They invested a lot to join. The Lu Group earned a full 20 million from the first day’s franchise fee alone. This number made the top management of Lu Group speechless. Nowadays, anyone who doubts the money making ability of the Xiaolingtong business is simply mentally ill. Lu Yiming, with his own efforts, pushed the cash flow of the Lu Group to an unprecedented peak. As for Zhang Bing of Ocean, after some discussion, he increased his investment in offline physical stores. Three stores were opened in Shanghai, and investigations were also conducted in surrounding major cities. In the end, ten stores were opened in succession. Most people do not have such courage. Of course, half of the funds came from Liang Qian. Out of trust in Lu Yiming, Liang Qian invested all the cash she had earned in the past few years. In Liang Qian’s words, this was her life savings, and if she really lost it, she would have enough reasons to pester Lu Yiming for the rest of her life. I have to say, this calculation is extremely good. It’s a pity that Lu Yiming seemed to be too busy during this period, and even though Liang Qian invited him several times, he was unable to make the trip. In front of the dressing table, Liang Qian looked at the necklace in front of her with a dazed look. This action has been maintained for a long time. “Stinky little brother, are you hiding from your sister?” There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Liang Qian’s voice as she talked to herself. We haven’t seen each other for such a long time, but you don’t even think about your sister. You have no conscience. Originally, I had an appointment with Haiyang to go to Nanshi to inspect a store this weekend. But because she hadn’t received any response from Lu Yiming for a long time, Liang Qian lost her previous interest. During the time when her little brother was away, Liang Qian had no motivation to do anything. Feeling lazy all day. If Lu Yiming knew that Liang Qian did this for him. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Ahem, this is a disease and needs to be treated. Every night, Liang Qian would take out the necklace that Lu Yiming gave her and look at it. It’s like a spiritual sustenance. Seeing things reminds me of people. Relieve the pain of lovesickness? At this moment, Liang Qian’s cell phone rang. “Madam boss, please come to the store quickly.” “What are you shouting about? What happened?” Faced with the manager’s anxious tone, Liang Qian still asked slowly. “No, Madam, nothing happened in the store.” “You’re bored, aren’t you? You want to tease your boss? I think you’re itching for trouble.” I just couldn’t find anyone to vent my anger to, and now he’s brought to my doorstep? “No, Madam Boss, didn’t you say that if Mr. Lu came, I would notify you immediately.” The manager said he felt aggrieved as it was something the boss lady had repeatedly reminded him of. “Mr. Lu?” “Yes, it’s your brother.” “Pah…” “Hello? Madam, are you still there?” The phone was clearly not hung up, but there was no sound. Bar Manager: I just want to ask, should I hang up or keep talking on the phone? As for Liang Qian, she had already taken action at this time. Liang Qian: Where is my sexy ‘battle suit’? I have prepared it for a long time, and it can finally be used tonight. Chapter 139 Getting Drunk 【True Love】 “A whiskey, please.” Whiskey on the rocks, that’s how men should drink it. Lu Yiming was indeed very depressed during this period. Su Rongrong was determined to hide from him. “Silly brother, drinking to drown your sorrows only makes you more sorrowful.” As soon as Liang Qian appeared on the stage in a black tulle dress, she instantly attracted the attention of countless men. In this era, probably only Liang Qian, who has studied abroad, would dare to dress like this. The dim lighting, coupled with the hazy see through outfit, creates an ambiguous atmosphere. Unfortunately, everyone who knows her knows that she is a rose with thorns. As for the newcomer, they were intimidated by Liang Qian’s powerful aura and did not dare to step forward rashly. After all, the level difference is too big, so you might as well make yourself unhappy. He could only watch Liang Qian come to Lu Yiming’s side. In front of the bar. Liang Qian leaned forward slightly, revealing her perfect figure in front of Lu Yiming. This is also a hidden benefit. “Not to the point of getting drunk.” Lu Yiming did not turn his head, but continued to shake the wine glass in front of him, silently watching the ice melt and merge with the whiskey. This scene made many men feel extremely angry. You are showing off! Why pretend to be a gentleman when there is a beautiful woman around? She was clearly coming here to throw herself into your arms. But this guy is just pretending nothing happened. It is true that those who are flooded will die of floods, and those who are drought will die of drought. “Tell me, what happened?” Liang Qian ignored Lu Yiming’s absent mindedness and waved to the bartender. “Old rules.” “Madam, here’s your Bloody Mary.” The two of them just leaned against the bar. “When did you drink strong liquor?” The Bloody Mary is one of the few strong alcoholic beverages in a cocktail. Don’t be fooled by the fancy name, if a lady really wants to drink a few glasses, I’m afraid… This thing is well known in bars as a “virginity losing drink”. “It’s just the right thing to do. My little brother wants to get drunk, so of course I have to risk my life to accompany him.” “You are not interested in me, are you trying to get me drunk?” “Stinky brother.” Liang Qian smiled silently, BINGO, the answer is correct. I just want to get my stinky brother drunk. It would be even better if I could fulfill my dream tonight. Liang Qian’s thoughts were clearly written on her face. “Do you dare?” “Give up.” Lu Yiming raised the corner of his mouth slightly and raised his glass to clink with Liang Qian. If it were in my previous life, tonight might have been a wonderful night. What a pity. Destined to have no fate with Sister Qian. In the previous life, Sister Qian got married three years later. In other words, Sister Qian waited for Lu Yiming for three years. Although the Lu family had fallen into decline in the previous life, Sister Qian didn’t care whether Lu Yiming had money or not. What they like is Lu Yiming. After the Lu Group changed hands, Lu Yiming was depressed for a long time. Of course, this period also included the constant suppression from the Su family. During the period when Lu Yiming was at his lowest point, Liang Qian was always by his side. Although the two did not go further, Liang Qian has always encouraged Lu Yiming. Unfortunately, given Liang Qian’s age, her family would not allow her to continue to “make trouble” endlessly. Finally, unable to withstand the pressure from her family, Liang Qian decided to get married. When Lu Yiming chose to regroup, Liang Qian gave everything she had, even selling the bar she had run for many years, to raise money to help Lu Yiming start over. Now that I think about it, I was really sorry to Sister Qian in my previous life. Fortunately, Sister Qian’s ending was perfect. Although it was an ‘arranged marriage’ in the previous life, the man was very good to Liang Qian. She is even more considerate after marriage. Life is prosperous. Even many years later, when Lu Yiming and Liang Qian sat together and reminisced about the glorious years, Liang Qian was still glad that she had made the right choice. In Liang Qian’s words, Lu Yiming is her ideal type, but definitely not the best marriage partner. If the two of them really force themselves to get together, it would probably only hurt both of them. It’s good like this, we met each other in humble beginnings and left the best of ourselves in each other’s hearts. Ten years later, Liang Qian and her husband moved abroad. A pair of children, a happy life. This is also the reason why Lu Yiming doesn’t dare to provoke Liang Qian now. Sister Qian’s true love has not appeared yet. Moreover, I don’t have the ability to make any promises to Sister Qian. Unfortunately, Liang Qian doesn’t understand Lu Yiming’s good intentions now. However, if Lu Yiming knew that everything he “saw” in his previous life was fake. Fake marriage, adopted children. Everything is fake, just to deal with the pressure from my family to get married. I don’t know how Lu Yiming should face Liang Qian? Once you see your brother, your life will be ruined. “Stinky little brother, it’s boring. What’s wrong with my sister?” “Anywhere is fine.” “Then why don’t you consider it?” The delicate red lips whispered softly in Lu Yiming’s ear. If I change to another man, it would be really hard to control myself. “Sister, why do you reject the ocean?” Lu Yiming’s question stunned Liang Qian. How long did Haiyang pursue Liang Qian? I’m afraid the ocean has already launched an offensive since we first met. Over the years, the ocean has never changed its mind. But for Liang Qian, if she doesn’t like something, she just doesn’t like it. There’s no reason why. And Lu Yiming’s question seemed to remind Liang Qian that he was the same. Liang Qian’s face looked a little ugly. “Angry?” “Stinky brother, don’t I have any dignity?” Liang Qian, feeling depressed, drank the wine in the glass in one gulp. “Another one.” I’ve waited for so long, and this is the result? The people chasing after my sister can line up from the bar to the Bund! If Liang Qian is willing, most of the men in the bar would be willing to be her slaves. My stinky brother has no vision! Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Didn’t you say you were here to drink with me? Why did you drink it by yourself? Lu Yiming did not try to persuade him. It was just drinking, and he was not afraid of anything. Maybe getting drunk would be helpful. Just consider it as a memorial to the deceased. The two of them stopped talking, you drink a glass, I drink a glass. The speed at which he drank made the bartender shudder with fear. Bartender: Everyone come and see the wine fairy. An hour later, Lu Yiming walked out of the bar carrying Liang Qian, who was like a puddle of mud. Although they drank the same amount, Lu Yiming became more sober the more he drank. Liang Qian had long lost the ability to tell the directions. As for the men in the bar, they watched the two leave with envy. Wow, what a wonderful night. If it were me, I would devote myself to it until my death. The next morning, Liang Qian woke up in her bed, rubbed her cracked head, and vowed that she would never drink so much again in her life. The only memory is that Lu Yiming left the bar last night with his son in his arms. Unfortunately, she was still wearing the gauze black dress she had worn last night, and apart from being wrinkled, there was nothing wrong with it. There was a glass of ice cold honey water on the bedside. Liang Qian didn’t mind and took a big gulp, and finally came back to life. “Stinky brother, is it really not meant to be?” Liang Qian smiled bitterly. “Humph, you don’t even know to cover me with a blanket. I’m freezing to death.” After a moment, Liang Qian burst into laughter, so brightly. My stinky little brother really has good intentions. Chapter 140: Coming to the Door Hongqiao Airport. “Boss Su, the guests will be here soon.” During this period, Su Rongrong has been very busy. After returning from Hong Kong, Su Rongrong took her team to inspect many projects. The integrated report was sent to Zhuang Sheng via email as soon as possible. Of course, the four major families in Hong Kong were not left out. Hard work always pays off. The attitude in Hong Kong is very positive. Especially Mr. Zhuang, I have been in contact quite frequently recently. However, in the intervals between busy times, Su Rongrong would always think of that certain bastard. What is he doing? Sweetheart? Wait, why did I think of him! During this period of time, Su Rongrong had always chosen to avoid Lu Yiming because her heart was in turmoil. “Boss Su?” “What?” “I just asked, the plane will arrive in half an hour.” The assistant was a little curious. Why did Mr. Su seem so absent minded today? You know, Su Rongrong is now synonymous with legend in Gaoyuan Capital. The rapid growth of the Xiaolingtong business attracted the attention of the investment community to this new star. Su Rongrong has a unique vision, is decisive in dealing with things, and has great potential to rise. But no one expected that only such a short time had passed. Su Rongrong actually made another big move. Today, Gaoyuan Capital has poured all its resources into Su Rongrong. Of course, the Su family’s influence is also involved. The financial backer behind the company is the Su family, so naturally they will spare no effort to support the eldest daughter of the Su family. However, to outsiders, this is too sci fi. Although she has the PHS business, Su Rongrong is just a newcomer in the investment world. Gaoyuan Capital, which ranks among the top five, actually dared to bet everything on such a newcomer. Is it too exaggerated? Within the company, Su Rongrong’s position is almost as high as that of Mr. Zhang. Logically speaking, Su Rongrong’s rapid rise should have caused panic among the top management. No matter which company you are in, it is not easy for newcomers to stand out. But for Su Rongrong, these were not obstacles. Originally, it was thought that this was the beginning of internal strife, but who could have imagined that President Zhang would cut the Gordian knot and directly deal with all the senior executives who might hinder Su Rongrong. Vice President Han was transferred from the headquarters, and Director Wang was transferred to Southeast Asia. this… You know, now the Southeast Asian branch is just a decoration and has no actual business. This is simply sending Director Wang to fend for himself. At this critical juncture, if you still don’t understand, then you should stop working in the company. Su Rongrong can be said to be the only one in the family. The company’s old employees really don’t understand the current situation. Mr. Zhang supports Mr. Su so much, isn’t he afraid of being replaced? Mr. Zhang is a legend in the investment banking circle after all. How could he make such an outrageous decision? There was even a rumor that General Manager Su was General Manager Zhang’s concubine, and that General Manager Zhang was playing tricks on the princes just to please the beauty. When these rumors reached Mr. Zhang’s ears, he was frightened. Just kidding, if Su Yunchang hears it, my good days will be over. At best, Mr. Zhang is just the spokesperson for the Su family in Shanghai. During this period, Mr. Zhang rarely showed up in the company. He didn’t even dare to hang around in front of Su Rongrong. I’m afraid I have personally experienced what it means when rumors are as ferocious as a tiger. And this is just the surface. Su Rongrong soon dropped another bombshell. He single handedly facilitated the Hong Kong delegation’s trip to the Magic City. When this news came out, the entire investment community was in an uproar. What do the Hong Kong tycoons of this era represent? It is high end, it is vision, it is strength. Once it joins forces with Hong Kong’s chaebols, Gaoyuan Capital will probably soar to the sky, and anyone who stands in its way will be killed. No one expected that Su Rongrong would be able to seize such an opportunity. “Got it. Have you arranged everything?” “Don’t worry, Mr. Su. There will be no problem with the reception. The specific visiting procedures have been determined.” “The most important person this time is Zhuang Sheng. Of course, the representatives of the four major families are also very important. If we can finalize some of the cooperation content this time, we can deepen the communication between the mainland and Hong Kong, which is very important for the company’s future strategy.” In order to welcome the Hong Kong delegation, Su Rongrong has not had a good rest during this period. Even dark circles appeared under my eyes. I don’t know if Su Yunchang would feel reluctant to let go of his beloved daughter after seeing her haggard appearance. “Boss Su, we have emphasized the importance of reception many times at meetings at all levels. You can rest assured that everyone in the company understands it.” For this reception, the company booked three entire floors of a five star hotel. All are business suites. The cost of reception alone is an astronomical figure. Su Rongrong spent a lot of money. Of course, we adhere to the idea that you can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. Even if it means giving up everything I have, I have to let the wealthy people in Hong Kong see my sincerity. “Confirm with the hotel again. Tonight’s dinner will be served according to the tastes and preferences of each distinguished guest.” Su Rongrong took every aspect into consideration. So meticulous that not a single detail is missed. At this time, a flight from Hong Kong to Shanghai has begun its landing procedure. “Boss Su, there is one more thing. Boss Lu from the Lu Group has asked you out several times.” “I pushed it.” Without any hesitation, Su Rongrong answered directly. Su Rongrong: This bastard, after coming out of the land of comfort, he only thinks of himself? snort! The assistant looked embarrassed, after all, Lu Group was currently the company’s most important client. But Mr. Su didn’t care at all. After all, the other party is Party A’s father. What if President Su’s behavior causes misunderstanding among the Lu Group? These meetings were all held on behalf of others. It can be seen that Mr. Lu from the Lu Group is quite dissatisfied. If this continues, I’m afraid… Huh? While the assistant was daydreaming, he realized that the figure walking towards him not far away looked so familiar. Why? Take a closer look. this… Speak of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will appear? Is Mr. Lu from the Lu Group so easy to talk about? Why did you suddenly appear? The assistant rubbed his eyes and realized that it was indeed Mr. Lu. coincide? Mr. Lu had obviously spotted Mr. Su and was heading straight towards him. “Boss Su.” “Anything else?” “Here, Mr. Lu is here.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What’s happening?! When Su Rongrong turned around, she met Lu Yiming’s gaze. At this moment, Su Rongrong felt her breathing stagnate. I clearly told myself to forget this bastard, but why is my heart beating so fast when we meet? This is too disappointing. Also, why did this bastard come here? Is it a coincidence, or… Chapter 141 Uninvited Guests “haven’t seen you for a long time.” Lu Yiming extended his hand towards Su Rongrong, but… It’s a dull moment again. It can be seen that this person is still angry. “Cheng Xiao wanted to thank you in person. Auntie has been released from the ICU and is recovering well, but she will have to take anti rejection drugs for the rest of her life. Of course, this is the best possible outcome.” “No need, we are all classmates.” “You finally speak.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… The bastard is doing bad things again. “There is nothing wrong between Cheng Xiao and me.” “Mr. Lu, do I think I’m a gossiper?” Su Rongrong sneered and asked, “What’s going on between you and Cheng Xiao? It’s none of my business.” “You say one thing and you mean another.” “Lu Yiming, that’s enough!” Su Rongrong glared angrily. this… The colleagues from Gaoyuan Capital around him all looked embarrassed. Is it possible for me to listen to this gossip? Several friends following behind Mr. Su looked at each other and took a few steps back in tacit understanding. Leave more private space for Mr. Su. “I’m just afraid that Mr. Su will misunderstand me, but I still have to criticize him.” “you…” Criticizing yourself seriously? Lu Yiming, you really don’t consider yourself an outsider, right? “Boss Su, you should at least have some professionalism. I remember there is a clause in the contract that states that if Party A needs Party B’s cooperation, Party B must support it unconditionally.” “I know the regulations well by heart.” “I want to remind you that you can’t let people in the industry laugh at you and complain about Gaoyuan Capital’s unprofessionalism.” “Thank you, Mr. Lu, for the reminder.” Su Rongrong turned sideways and made some distance. “If Mr. Lu has nothing else to do, please go ahead.” This is an order to expel you. “Something’s going on.” “To pick someone up?” “Well, come meet an old friend.” Lu Yiming answered seriously, but to Su Rongrong, it sounded a little… Old acquaintance? Could it be… “Lu Yiming, don’t tell me that you are here for Zhuang Sheng as well?” “That’s right.” Lu Yiming had a smile on his face and it seemed that he was not stupid. “Jhuang Sheng is my guest.” One can imagine how Su Rongrong feels at this moment. I have paid so much! After returning to Shanghai, I was busy integrating reports and coordinating collaborations. You’re so busy, what do you mean, Lu Yiming? Come to pick up something ready made? This is too much. Especially Lu Yiming’s smile at this moment, Su Rongrong wanted to grab the smug face in front of her. “Don’t get excited. I know Zhuang Sheng is your guest.” “Then why aren’t you leaving?” “What a coincidence! Zhuang Sheng and I are also friends. When a friend comes to visit, I, as the host, naturally have to entertain him well.” Once Lu Yiming becomes thick skinned, it is truly astonishing. At this moment, Su Rongrong felt like she was about to explode with anger. So I’ve been busy all this time just to pave the way for you? “Look how anxious you are, I’m not trying to steal your business.” Seeing Su Rongrong’s unhappy expression, Lu Yiming actually tried to tease her. It seems that Lu Yiming wants to change his strategy. “Lu Yiming!” “Don’t be angry, pay attention to your facial management.” Su Rongrong: If I had a weapon that was handy right now, I would definitely kill this bastard! At worst, we can die together. “Everyone’s goal is the same. President Su shouldn’t be so stingy.” Lu Yiming is sure to have Su Rongrong in his grasp. When they were in Hong Kong, the two were inseparable. It is natural for me to show up now. If Su Rongrong drove me away now, it would probably leave a bad impression on Zhuang Sheng. Anyway, no matter what, I am sure to win. “You are really shameless.” “Compliment.” Su Rongrong was completely speechless. Sure enough, once Lu Yiming started to act like a rogue, Su Rongrong was definitely no match for him. “I’m warning you, don’t ruin my plan.” “No, I’m here to solicit investment.” “Um?” Lu Yiming’s words caught Su Rongrong’s attention. Attract investment? How is this possible? You know, for the Lu Group, it is now holding a chicken that has laid the golden elixir. The cash out capability of Xiaolingtong business is obvious to all. The daily turnover alone is enough to make countless groups jealous. Apart from anything else, even if the Lu Group wants to develop in multiple areas, the support of the PHS business will be more than enough. In this situation, Lu Yiming actually came to seek sponsorship? How is this possible? Su Rongrong couldn’t even imagine how big it would be. If what Lu Yiming said is true, it may also be an opportunity for Gaoyuan Capital. “Chat?” Lu Yiming: ( ^_^ ) Sure enough, he took the bait. I knew it would be like this. “Now?” “certainly.” “You change your expression very quickly.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Very good, you have learned how to make innuendos, right? “I have learned it. I guess Mr. Lu is not such a stingy person.” “Haha, sorry, I’m very narrow minded.” “Lu Yiming, don’t go too far!” I have already lowered my posture, but you, Lu Yiming, are shameless! If the guests you have worked so hard to invite invest in your project, wouldn’t you be doing the dirty work for others? Besides, I have already endured all this, why are you still putting on airs? At this time, the partners of Gaoyuan Capital looked helpless as they watched President Su change his expression several times. Ever since President Lu showed up, our President Su has been following the other party’s pace. To put it bluntly, you fall into someone else’s trap without knowing it. By the way, where is Mr. Su’s usual cleverness? Why did everything fail as soon as I met Mr. Lu? This is what is meant by “those involved are confused, while those who are not involved see clearly”. “It’s not impossible, but in exchange, should we be more honest?” “What do you mean?” “Give me the information you collected, and we’ll exchange.” “Lu Yiming, I have twenty two projects here!” Take advantage of someone’s misfortune. This face can be used as a city wall! “Not as good as me.” “You are quite confident.” “Are you doubting my judgment?” Lu Yiming stared into Su Rongrong’s eyes, it was that familiar look again. Passionate and affectionate. Su Rongrong: Damn, this bastard is just an actor. “Phew… Deal.” Su Rongrong struggled internally for a while, but finally chose to give in. Asked the assistant to bring the investment project book. “Wait, where’s your project book?” “It’s all here.” Lu Yiming pointed to his head. “I…you…Lu Yiming, I will fight you!” I’ve been fooled again! Su Rongrong wished she could die together with Lu Yiming right now. Why, every time I meet this bastard, I always end up at a disadvantage? It was like this last time, and the time before that, and this time is no exception. This bastard is his nemesis. “Boss Su, calm down, calm down, the Xiangjiang representative is here.” Just when Su Rongrong was provoked by Lu Yiming and wanted to perish together with him, the Hong Kong delegation finally came out.

Thank you to all readers for your tips and love. Add one more chapter. Heart! Chapter 142 Escort “Mr. Lu, Miss Su, how are you? Hey, Miss Su, you don’t look well?” Zhuang Sheng seemed very enthusiastic. He first hugged Lu Yiming, but when he saw Su Rongrong, he was a little confused. This expression is obviously a little strange. “Zhuang Sheng, you are joking. I am so happy that you can come.” Su Rongrong: Humph, it’s because I was mad at that bastard. He got something for nothing and cheated people out of the investment plan that he had worked so hard to put together. However, Lu Yiming was right in reminding us that facial expression management is very important. Su Rongrong quickly adjusted her mentality. only… Lu Yiming, who was standing by, was a little surprised. In the crowd, Lu Yiming saw Ouyang Lin. By the way, this is clearly an investment inspection, so why would this playboy Ouyang Lin show up? Logically speaking, a playboy like Ouyang Lin seems to have no interest in business other than spending money. Moreover, this guy’s eyes have been on Su Rongrong since he appeared. This is not good news for Lu Yiming. This is obviously Sima Zhao’s intention. “Lu Sheng, congratulations. This time the handheld wireless phone system is a big hit. I’ve heard about it even in Hong Kong.” This little pager became so popular that even the wealthy people in Hong Kong were jealous of it. Of course, the huge consumer market in the mainland also opened people’s eyes. “Zhuang Sheng was just joking. It just happened to happen.” Lu Yiming spoke in a humble tone and did not get carried away by his temporary success. This attitude naturally won the favor of everyone present. Don’t be arrogant when you win, and don’t be discouraged when you lose. This is the kind of mindset you need to do business. Lu Yiming’s success is not accidental. This is also the reason why Zhuang Sheng values Lu Yiming so much. “Lu Sheng, this time it is thanks to Miss Su that we were able to make the trip. Of course, this is also related to the attitude of our motherland towards us.” Many people in Hong Kong’s wealthy circles have already established connections in the mainland. The four major families, in particular, attach great importance to their connections with the mainland. As for this trip to the Magic City, although it was purely carried out in the form of business, it also included some official activities during this period. Of course, this has little to do with Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong. After all, they came here under the name of business inspection, and some things are better solved behind the scenes. Although Lu Yiming knew what was going on, under the current circumstances, Lu Yiming was not willing to get involved rashly. There are too many variables and uncertainties, so Lu Yiming is not willing to take risks. “Miss Su, we meet again.” While Zhuang Sheng and Lu Yiming were chatting, Ouyang Lin seized the opportunity and moved in front of Su Rongrong. Ouyang Lin stands out from the crowd with his handsome and pretty boy look. After all, most of the members of this business delegation are entrepreneurs over 40 years old. There are not many people of Ouyang Lin’s age. “Mr. Ouyang, the motherland welcomes you.” In response to Ouyang Lin’s enthusiasm, Su Rongrong’s reply was much more official. To be honest, Su Rongrong was not interested in this famous playboy in Hong Kong. This person’s life story is really too outrageous. Beautiful women and luxurious cars, warm fragrance in your arms. In Hong Kong, Ouyang Lin only appears in entertainment headlines and gossip magazines. There’s nothing we can do about it, since this playboy is surrounded by countless beautiful women. Popular actresses and international supermodels are all Ouyang Lin’s targets. But this time, the playboy actually set his sights on Su Rongrong. That’s a bit… Well, I can only say that the meeting at the TVB anniversary celebration was just a fleeting glimpse for Ouyang Lin. There has never been a woman like Su Rongrong who could bring such a great shock to Ouyang Lin. In Ouyang Lin’s words, the women he had dated before were as different from Su Rongrong as heaven and earth. Ever since he met Su Rongrong, Ouyang Lin’s mind has been filled with every frown and smile of the eldest daughter of the Su family. Those women in the past could no longer arouse the interest of Master Ouyang. Even the paparazzi in Hong Kong are confused. How come playboy Ouyang Lin has become so honest during this period? Could it be that he was under pressure from his family? That’s not right. The Ouyang family obviously has no expectations for this playboy and should just let him enjoy himself. However, Ouyang Lin’s changes are real. This time, after learning that it was Su Rongrong who organized the morning inspection, Ouyang Lin seemed very active. Ouyang Lin, who had never asked about the family business, specially found his grandfather and insisted on getting a quota. This confused the old man of the Ouyang family. What’s going on? The prodigal son returns? You know, this business trip is not just a simple inspection. The most important thing is to express our position to the mainland. Old Man Ouyang was afraid that Ouyang Lin would cause trouble for him. If I get misunderstood, wouldn’t it be more trouble than gain? But he couldn’t resist Ouyang Lin’s repeated assurances. In the end, Old Man Ouyang softened his heart and released this troublemaker. At this moment, seeing the goddess he had been dreaming of, Ouyang Lin was extremely enthusiastic. The people around him couldn’t bear to watch him act like a bootlicker. Who could have thought that Mr. Ouyang, who was a hero all his life, would have such an unpromising grandson. As for Su Rongrong, she also looked embarrassed. After all, with so many friends from Hong Kong watching, I can’t be too cold. But Ouyang Lin’s behavior was obviously just like that bastard, taking advantage of others. If you give someone a smile, they can start their own business. Just when Su Rongrong was at a loss. It was Lu Yiming who stepped forward. “Mr. Ouyang, long time no see. I miss you so much.” “Well?” Ouyang Lin was confused and wanted to ask, when did he and you become so close? What are you doing with your arms around each other? There is nothing wrong with my sexual orientation. “Lu Sheng, what are you doing?” “I’m so excited to meet Master Ouyang. Come, let me introduce you to our terminal in Magic City.” “No, I…” Ouyang Lin wanted to ask where Lu Yiming got so much strength. It’s like I’m being dragged away by Lu Yiming. As for Su Rongrong at this moment, she was relieved. This bastard helped me out again. Su Rongrong: Humph, don’t think that I have to remember your kindness just like that. We will settle our accounts later. Although I thought so in my heart. However, a warm feeling still flowed through Su Rongrong’s heart. At the critical moment, Lu Yiming stepped forward. This guy always appears when I need him most. As for Zhuang Sheng standing aside, he had a smile on his face. Still the familiar recipe, still the original taste. It turns out that the young couple was just having a quarrel. “Everyone, the car is ready. You’ve had a hard time on the journey. Let’s go to the hotel and rest first.” Without Ouyang Lin’s entanglement, Su Rongrong was obviously much more natural. Chapter 143 A Simple Plan “Done.” “Mr. Lu, this is my car.” Su Rongrong specially prepared a Coaster for the inspection team, which is also the top level commercial vehicle of this era. Seeing 5 Coasters lined up in a row is really spectacular. But after Lu Yiming sent Ouyang Lin to the car, he immediately turned around and got into Su Rongrong’s car. Ouyang Lin was left standing there in bewilderment. I just want to ask, what is going on? Ouyang Lin: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Is this the so called enthusiasm of mainlanders? Wait, I originally wanted to take advantage of Mr. Su’s car. How come… Ouyang Lin, who had reacted at this time, obviously had no chance. “I know it’s your car.” “Sorry, I’m used to riding with people.” “Actually, I can sit in the front row.” Lu Yiming did not feel embarrassed at all about being rejected. Instead, he opened the front door very naturally. “Hey, Mr. Lu, this is my seat.” Su Rongrong’s assistant looked aggrieved. After all, he is the heir to the Lu Group, why is he trying to take my place? “Go to the car behind and introduce the customs and practices of our Magic City along the way. Don’t let the Hong Kong businessmen mistakenly think that we don’t know how to entertain guests.” Assistant: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Each car is thoughtfully equipped with a tour guide. President Su has already taken all this into consideration. “Xiao Wang, get in the car.” “Okay, Mr. Su, sorry, Mr. Lu, please make way.” “What a pity. I had wanted to discuss the project on the way.” As Lu Yiming spoke, he made a gesture to give way. “Wait, Xiao Wang, you should go to the car behind.” “Well…” Lu Yiming had a very funny look on his face. The speed at which his expression changed was extremely fast. She was worthy of being Su Rongrong. The convoy set off. “Can you tell me now?” Su Rongrong’s car is a Crown Century. It is certainly a luxury car in this era, but to be honest, it is not worthy of the status of the eldest daughter of the Su family. All I can say is that Su Rongrong doesn’t care about external enjoyment. “It’s too tiring to turn your head to talk.” “Lu Yiming, don’t go too far.” “Rongrong, Cheng Xiao is very grateful to you. Also, I have already made it clear to Cheng Xiao before, between her and me…” “What happens between you two has nothing to do with me.” The main character is the king of tough talk. Su Rongrong was obviously secretly happy after hearing Lu Yiming’s words just now, but she was unwilling to admit it. “The situation was very critical at the time, but Cheng Xiao didn’t call me. In the end, it was Cheng’s mother’s attending physician who was afraid that I would blame her.” But fortunately, everything went smoothly. Cheng’s mother has left the ICU and all indicators are under control within safe levels. You have to take rejection drugs for life, and you only need to have regular check ups and you will be no different from ordinary people. This is the best ending for Cheng’s mother. All of this is thanks to Su Rongrong. Without Su Rongrong’s help, it would have been impossible to find a kidney source. There was no way the mother could get through this. “We are all classmates.” “Yes, they are all classmates.” A double entendre. “How about I change seats?” “Um?” Before Su Rongrong could react, she saw that Lu Yiming had already unbuckled her seat belt. “Driving is dangerous!” “fine.” Lu Yiming said that he is very flexible. It was just a matter of climbing from the front row to the back row, which was naturally not a difficult task for Lu Yiming. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… This bastard has taken climbing up the pole to the extreme. However, at this moment, Su Rongrong had no intention of refusing except for being worried about Lu Yiming’s safety. So, from the bottom of her heart, Su Rongrong has accepted Lu Yiming’s statement? “Why…” Who would have thought that at this moment, a truck in front suddenly changed lanes. The driver made an emergency evasive move. Under the influence of inertia, Lu Yiming, who was halfway up, fell directly into Su Rongrong’s arms. this… Although they were not injured, Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong hugged each other tightly. Su Rongrong was dumbfounded. This bastard must have done this on purpose. What a coincidence, he fell on himself? This posture is really too ambiguous. The incident happened suddenly and Su Rongrong was not prepared at all. The two of them were tightly stuck together. “Get out of the way!” Lu Yiming: It feels so good to have this soft fragrance in my arms. Although he was reluctant, seeing Su Rongrong’s angry eyes, Lu Yiming immediately stood up and returned to his seat on the other side. “Lu Yiming, you did it on purpose!” “Your car, your driver.” Lu Yiming looked innocent. He is so ungrateful after getting an advantage. “Phew, forget it. Now can you tell me about your project?” “certainly.” Lu Yiming took out a document from his bag. “Project book, you can take a look.” “Didn’t you say it was all in your head?” “Ahem… a makeshift solution.” Su Rongrong: You bastard, you never tell the truth. Su Rongrong took the project book and started to look through it. It was a very simple project proposal, and it didn’t look like it came from the Lu Group at all. It is a leading private enterprise after all, so why is the project proposal so shabby? It is printed on A4 paper. “Just make do with it. I made it myself.” “The Lu Group needs President Lu to personally prepare the project proposal?” “Some immature ideas.” Lu Yiming smiled slightly, and although he spoke modestly, his expression… Lu Yiming said that the value of his brain is immeasurable. This is the advantage of being reborn. As long as he wanted, Lu Yiming could get involved in all profitable businesses and create a trillion dollar empire. It’s a pity, what does it matter even if it’s a trillion dollar empire? In his previous life, Lu Yiming had already reached the top. Not much interest in these. But God has given me a chance, and if I don’t do something, it seems that I would be unworthy of my identity as a reborn person. During this period of time, Lu Yiming also thought about a lot. Since I have so much sin on my shoulders, I might as well spend my whole life serving the country and the people. If you want to achieve your goal, your voice must be adopted by more people. Therefore, I must become stronger. Lu Yiming: I’m sorry, instead of letting foreign capital control you, it’s better for you to build a truly national enterprise yourself. Today is the first day of my implementation. Su Rongrong: This bastard, why did he suddenly become so serious? It must be admitted that when Lu Yiming got serious, Su Rongrong was very moved. No, we still have to focus on the plan. Su Rongrong drove the messy thoughts out of her mind. Half an hour later, Su Rongrong didn’t know how many times she took a deep breath. Bold, radical, and imaginative. This is Su Rongrong’s evaluation of the plan. “How about it?” “Is the Lu Group planning to change its business?” “No, it’s a brand new company, it’s considered a startup.” “What about the personnel structure? Lu Yiming, even if it’s an angel round, it’s impossible to attract investment just with this proposal.” Investment banks are not charities. Su Rongrong could even say that if this plan had not come from Lu Yiming, it would probably have been buried in the sea and no one would have been interested in it. Chapter 144: Building Your Own National Enterprise “Are you so optimistic about the future of computers?” “What if I say that in the future computer networks will extend to every aspect of people’s lives? Shopping, AI, and every walk of life will all rely on computer support.” “Huh… this idea is too sci fi.” Su Rongrong took a deep breath. Lu Yiming’s assumption was too bold. Of course, this does not mean that Su Rongrong is short sighted. Twenty years later, Lu Yiming’s words would be unanimously recognized. But in this age when computers are not well developed, it is like a heavenly book. “The country has realized the future of the Internet, and the development of the computer industry will exceed everyone’s imagination.” “Mr. Lu, I want to remind you that even in Eagle Sauce, the development of the Internet has its limitations.” The Internet industry in the United States has been developing for more than 20 years. Su Rongrong also paid attention to the development of the Internet industry during her college years. Unfortunately, the progress abroad was slow, so Su Rongrong shifted her focus. But now that Lu Yiming mentioned it again, Su Rongrong found it hard to imagine that, as Lu Yiming said, the domestic Internet industry would experience a blowout development. “The strategy is different.” The domestic Internet industry is certain to explode. The only difference is who will ultimately control these Internet giants? Is it a national enterprise, or is it infiltrated by foreign capital? This kind of loss has occurred again and again in later generations. Of course, this cannot be blamed on any one person. This is the result of the times. Just like what Su Rongrong expressed. In this day and age, the far sighted investment banks in China cannot see that the Internet industry is about to take off. This led to all of the initial technology companies being controlled by foreign capital. This may not be a problem at first, but once these technology companies become bigger and stronger, or even achieve a monopoly, all kinds of unexpected situations will arise. There is no free lunch in the world, and these foreign investors want more than just money. Once this happens, it will cost a greater price to reverse it. Not only does it seriously hinder the development of high tech, but more seriously, it may lead to information leakage. Endangering national security. As a reborn person, Lu Yiming naturally understood this. Since you have to start a career, why not just go for the big one? “The opportunity is right in front of you.” “I need to think about it.” Su Rongrong closed her eyes and fell into deep thought. Lu Yiming didn’t say anything else. Lu Yiming believes in Su Rongrong’s vision, which is why Lu Yiming is willing to share the plan with Su Rongrong. In Lu Yiming’s heart, Su Rongrong is the most worthy partner. The Su family behind Su Rongrong has always been a red family, although the Su family has always focused on the real economy. In the previous life, the Su family misjudged the situation, causing them to miss the opportunity for rapid development. Of course, the Su family is still that giant. Lu Yiming had also thought that if the Su family could join in at the first opportunity, it would be a hundred benefits for both the Su family and the entire country. Lu Yiming also believed that Su Rongrong would make the right choice. “Drive slower.” “Okay, Mr. Lu.” Although he is Su Rongrong’s driver, the relationship between Mr. Su and Mr. Lu is really difficult to judge. The driver said that he would be right if he listened to Mr. Lu. When Crown Century stopped steadily in front of the hotel. Su Rongrong opened her eyes at the same time. “How big?” “The bigger, the better.” “You are asking for too much.” “If the scale is small, Lu Group can afford it itself.” “Too.” Su Rongrong nodded, agreeing with Lu Yiming’s reasoning. After all, the Lu Group is now holding the goose that lays golden eggs. “Are you still planning to attract foreign investment?” “No, all foreign investment is prohibited.” “I must remind you that domestic Internet businesses need external support.” Su Rongrong’s worries are not without reason. Foreign Internet companies have been developing for so many years, and their technology and experience are unmatched by domestic ones. A decisive factor in attracting foreign investment is the desire to rely on the technical support of their resources. Otherwise, if you work too hard, you might end up in a dead end. “I understand what you said, but sacrificing the future of the company for temporary convenience is not worth it. What I need is a national enterprise, not one that is restricted everywhere.” “National enterprise.” There is no such concept today. When Su Rongrong heard such a description for the first time, she felt her blood boiling. This bastard, when he talks about profound principles, I can’t refute him. A high tech national enterprise that belongs entirely to us. Such positioning did attract Su Rongrong. “So, this time, it’s up to you to convince the Hong Kong investors.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… How long did it take for this feeling to last? You bastard, you dug a hole for yourself again. Sure enough, after I moved myself, my true colors began to show. “Hong Kong’s funds are also considered foreign capital.” “If you look carefully, you will find that it is no longer the case after 1997.” “You really are…” I originally thought that Lu Yiming came to me on purpose to explain, but now it seems that he has other intentions. “knew.” Lu Yiming was a little confused. He was so moved just now, why did she suddenly become so cold? “No, I mean…” “Mr. Lu doesn’t need to explain. For Gaoyuan Capital, we will naturally not miss out on profitable projects.” A woman’s heart is as unfathomable as the sea. Lu Yiming looked puzzled at this moment. “If there is nothing else, please get out of the car, Mr. Lu.” Order to expel. “Rongrong, about Cheng Xiao.” “Mr. Lu, there’s no need to say more. We are all classmates, that’s all.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, he changes his attitude faster than turning the pages of a book. But this is definitely not the time to push to the limit. The Hong Kong inspection team has already got off the bus, and as the host, we naturally need to entertain them well. “Rongrong…” “Boss Lu, we are not that familiar with each other.” Su Rongrong: You asked for it, you bastard. Well, Su Rongrong’s little arrogance completely exploded. Public is public, private is private, Su Rongrong will never confuse them. As a girl, she naturally didn’t want Lu Yiming to have other purposes when he explained. It can only be said that Lu Yiming made a mistake this time. “I’ll stay too.” “Mr. Lu, we didn’t prepare anything for you in advance.” “It’s okay, as long as it’s the same as your standard.” Su Rongrong: Ha! After experiencing Lu Yiming’s shamelessness time and time again, I seem to have gotten used to it. “I’m helping you ward off evil spirits.” “Then I would like to thank Mr. Lu.” “You’re welcome.” “You bastard!” “What?” “fine.” Su Rongrong found that she really couldn’t do anything to Lu Yiming. What a sin. Chapter 145 Successful Business Promotion Conference I have to say that Su Rongrong’s investment conference was very grand. Not only did it capture all the emerging industries around Shanghai, but it also provided several important constructive suggestions. From this perspective, the Xiangjiang inspection team’s trip was worthwhile. Of course, the construction period of these projects is too long and requires long term investment and holding, which has become the main reason for the Hong Kong businessmen’s entanglement. “Everyone, the era of making quick money is coming to an end. As resources become more and more mature, I believe that information asymmetry will become a synonym in the near future. We must also follow the general trend in order to be invincible in the subsequent competition.” Su Rongrong’s summary is very consistent with the current environment. No one can find fault with this. Of course, this does not mean that all information gaps will end at the same time. This requires a process. If you have enough ambition and strength, you can still take risks. After all, Shanghai has been known as an adventurer’s paradise since 100 years ago. As for why Su Rongrong wanted to pour cold water on everyone right from the start, it was actually a small “warning” to everyone present. The Magic City is changing with each passing day, so it’s natural that it’s eager for investment. But everything has its bottom line. If you are too greedy, you will only be harmed in the end. Everyone here is a well known figure in Hong Kong and has long gone through the primitive accumulation of capital. Therefore, barbaric capital expansion is not suitable for today’s Magic City. While Shanghai is eager for investment, it will also impose stricter regulatory controls than before. This sets the tone. No matter who you are, you must abide by the rules of the game. Otherwise, mainland companies will also join forces to boycott. “Miss Su reminded us that since we are here, we should naturally do business in an orderly manner.” As a representative of the Hong Kong delegation, Zhuang Sheng naturally made his voice heard at the most appropriate time. Rich people are not fools, they are often more shrewd. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be among the first group of people to become rich. Everyone has vision and pattern. Since Su Rongrong has set the stage for everyone, besides being grateful, the natural thing to do is to choose the project of your choice. Gaoyuan Capital has racked its brains on this point. “Amazing! You’ve prepared so much in such a short time.” Even Lu Yiming had to admire Su Rongrong’s ability to take action. After returning from Hong Kong, Su Rongrong paid close attention to the rapid development of the Xiaolingtong business while preparing for such a grand investment promotion conference. As the organizer, it is hard for Gaoyuan Capital not to be famous. With this step alone, Gaoyuan Capital has left all its competitors behind. It seems that there will be new changes in the rankings of the top five investment banks in Shanghai soon. “It’s really rare to get praise from President Lu.” “What a shame, so short sighted.” “Um?” I just praised myself, and now you want to pour cold water on me? Su Rongrong: You bastard, can’t you just be proud of yourself for a while? “Don’t mind, I’m not referring to Gaoyuan Capital.” Among the numerous projects, the most popular one is undoubtedly the real estate project. Land in Hong Kong is extremely valuable and land prices are reaching new highs. Therefore, in the subconscious of Hong Kong’s wealthy people, the value of real estate is often immeasurable. They prefer to invest their funds in the real estate industry. This time, among the projects prepared by Gaoyuan Capital, there are indeed some real estate projects. You can take a look at the situation on site. Most of the wealthy people crowded in front of the real estate projects and asked about the basic information. However, some projects that require long term support to generate returns appear to be unusually deserted. This is also the reason why Lu Yiming said it was short sighted. “There’s nothing you can do. Some habits that are ingrained in your bones can’t be changed.” Su Rongrong and Lu Yiming looked at each other, feeling that they thought alike. Of course, this doesn’t mean that real estate projects can’t make money. On the contrary, in the next 20 years, we can witness the rapid rise of real estate. The land prices in Shanghai will also hit new highs. For many years to come, real estate tycoons will dominate the era. But when the tide really goes out, how many people will be swimming naked? It’s a mess, who will take over? “They are the creators of an era, and likewise, they also destroy an era.” The general trend cannot be changed by the power of one person alone. Moreover, the high input and output will mean high leverage for any real estate company. Maybe some people can take profits at the highest point, but eventually someone will take over the last baton. “Let’s not talk about this. Let’s see if there’s anything you’re interested in?” “Me? If I remember correctly, I’m here to promote my own company.” Lu Yiming smiled. This made Su Rongrong stunned for a few seconds. You bastard, why are you smiling so beautifully? You’re trying to attract more women again. “Lu Sheng, I’ve been looking for you for a long time.” Just as Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong were chatting, Zhuang Sheng, who had been looking for them, finally showed up. “Ms. Su is here too. Congratulations, Miss Su. This investment promotion was very successful.” Zhuang Sheng also admired Su Rongrong’s abilities. As expected of the eldest daughter of the Su family, she is truly extraordinary. “Mr. Zhuang, you must be joking. I just happened to come here at the right time to put more opportunities on the table. Mainland enterprises do need more financial support. This is a win win situation.” “Miss Su, you are too modest. When I was Miss Su’s age, I definitely didn’t have such ability and courage.” More importantly, this time, Su Rongrong got the support of the government. This is of vital importance. For big bosses like Zhuang Sheng, this is what really attracts them. “Tensei doesn’t seem to be interested in these projects.” “Haha, Miss Su, you’re joking. I didn’t start out in real estate. If I really started out later in life, I wouldn’t be as good as those old friends.” The old guys that Zhuang Sheng mentioned are not ordinary people. A real estate tycoon, or a shop king in Hong Kong. A real estate giant that controls Hong Kong. Zhuang Sheng doesn’t have the confidence to get a share of the profits from these people. Besides, they have plenty of resources, so why bother yourself? Although none of these people showed up in person, their agents were present. This shows how much these people value the mainland real estate market. “Zhuang Sheng wants to tell us that things are going to change soon.” Lu Yiming smiled and handed Zhuang Sheng a bottle of mineral water. “Haha, Lu Sheng still understands what I mean. Of course, the mainland market is huge, and no one can take it all in one go.” “Since Zhuang Shengzhi is not interested in this, what is he doing this time?” “Lu Sheng, let’s not play dumb. I’ve seen your ability. How about I be included in the new project?” Su Rongrong didn’t expect that Zhuang Sheng had such a high opinion of Lu Yiming. Without knowing anything, you want to make blind investments. Chapter 146 This is the lion’s big mouth “Zhuang Sheng is domineering.” “Haha, I just like you.” Zhuang Sheng saw the rapid growth of Xiaolingtong and believed that investing in Lu Yiming would definitely not be a losing deal. Besides, with the eldest daughter of the Su family investing in the project, how bad can the project be? Zhuang Sheng was very smart. Seeing that Lu Yiming had no intention of making the project public, he guessed that Lu Yiming was not short of money. Or maybe Lu Yiming has his own concerns, and instead of guessing, he might as well make things clear. “Okay, I wanted to invite Mr. Zhuang anyway.” Lu Yiming didn’t expect that Zhuang Sheng would come to him on his own initiative. Of course, this also saves a lot of trouble. “Miss Su, you are the landlord, do you have a quiet place?” “Come with me.” Su Rongrong rolled her eyes at Lu Yiming, you bastard, it’s easy for him to order her around. If Gaoyuan Capital didn’t also have a stake in this project, Su Rongrong wouldn’t have bothered to care. Su Rongrong brought Lu Yiming and Zhuang Sheng to a small meeting room, asked someone to bring a pot of tea, and then they sat together. “Longjing, good tea.” Zhuang Sheng took a sip and found it very delicious. It was a rare and fine tea and it was difficult to buy such a high quality tea in the market in Hong Kong. “If Zhuang Sheng likes it, I’ll have someone send some over before I go back.” “Haha, then I’ll shamelessly accept it.” Bosses of Zhuang Sheng’s level usually don’t accept gifts privately. After all, those who give gifts all have something to ask for. Businessmen have to weigh the pros and cons, otherwise they will lose the big picture for the small and become a laughing stock. Of course, Zhuang Sheng accepted Su Rongrong’s gift without even thinking about it. The Su family is a century old family, and they really don’t need to set traps for themselves. Besides, Zhuang Sheng is indeed a tea lover. “Zhuang Sheng likes to drink tea. I thought Hong Kong people all love coffee.” “It’s just a superficial phenomenon. The younger generation is more seriously affected by cultural invasion, unlike us, the older generation, who will never forget our roots even when we die.” Zhuang Sheng’s words were suggestive and he was also expressing his position to Lu Yiming. I always care about my motherland and never forget my roots. “It seems that Zhuang Sheng has guessed my concerns.” Lu Yiming played with the teacup in his hand with a smile on his face. It’s easy to do business with smart people. “I understand Lu Sheng’s concerns, but don’t worry, my investment is clean and does not involve foreign capital. Of course, I mean two years later.” After all, Hong Kong today does not truly belong to the motherland. “In that case, everything is easy to discuss. Mr. Zhuang, here is the project proposal, please take a look.” “this…” Zhuang Sheng looked at the project book handed over by Lu Yiming with a confused look on his face. It turns out to be a project book. A stack of A4 papers tied together with staples, with three big words on the cover. 【Project Book】 Who wouldn’t be confused watching this? Su Rongrong, who was standing by, looked at Zhuang Sheng’s embarrassed expression and couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh. What did I say? If it were a normal person, they would think that Lu Yiming was fooling people. In other words, Lu Yiming personally endorsed it, otherwise, Chunchun is a liar. “Haha, it’s a little shabby, but Lu Sheng really has good intentions. This is what we call a great hermit hiding in the city.” It’s difficult for Zhuang Sheng as he has to find excuses for Lu Yiming. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Ahem, that bullshit great hermit hiding in the city, it was just a sudden idea for me, and I expressed my preliminary idea last night. Naturally, I don’t have the time to beautify my project book. However, there is some useful information here. Zhuang Sheng took the project book and began to look through it. “Huh.” Zhuang Sheng couldn’t take his eyes off the first page alone. He sat up straight instantly and began to read slowly. As for Su Rongrong and Lu Yiming, they exchanged glances. Su Rongrong: You must be shocked, right? I was also shocked when I saw it just now. I really can’t understand how this bastard could have so many weird ideas in his head. But Su Rongrong had to admit that once it was accomplished, it would be a glory for the nation. “The concept of the Internet involves so many industries? Lu Sheng, it may not be easy to achieve it.” The content of this project book is really too grand. Even the well informed Zhuang Sheng was secretly shocked at this moment. “You have to take one step at a time and eat one bite at a time. I still know this truth.” “Haha, it seems I was worrying too much.” Zhuang Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lu Yiming still knows his limits. If it were really laid out as described in the project book, no amount of money would be enough. “Lu Sheng, I’ve seen the project, it’s really good, and I understand what you mean. Let’s get straight to the point, just give me a price.” Zhuang Sheng never does things in a sloppy manner. Besides, this project is really good. In fact, any one of the projects is worth investing in separately. However, Zhuang Sheng’s only concern at the moment is whether Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong have reached a strategic cooperation? Since they are all angel rounds, shouldn’t they be fairer? Zhuang Sheng really wanted to invest, but no one’s money comes from the wind. Zhuang Sheng would not be willing to pay money for no reason. “Since both of you are here, I will tell you all at once.” “Oh? Mr. Lu means that Miss Su has not yet participated in the investment?” This is rare good news. “Zhuang Sheng doesn’t trust me?” “Of course not. The relationship between the two of you is unusual. I’m just afraid…” “Mr. Zhuang is joking. Mr. Lu and I have nothing to do with each other.” Before Lu Yiming opened his mouth, Su Rongrong on the other side was eager to refute the rumors and distance herself from the matter. Zhuang Sheng: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Do you think you are stupid? You two are in love and I am interested in you, but do you really think I am blind? However, since Lu Sheng and Miss Su dared to guarantee it, Zhuang Sheng naturally had no objection. After all, the most basic thing in cooperation is trust. If you have doubts from the beginning, it is better not to invest. There will be many bumps and bruises in future operations, and conflicts will always arise in decision making. If we can’t be honest and unfair now, it’s only a matter of time before we go our separate ways in the future. “Mr. Zhuang, Mr. Su, 200 million, 20% of the shares, this is the bottom line.” “hiss…” As soon as Lu Yiming finished speaking, Zhuang Sheng and Su Rongrong took a deep breath. 200 million, 20% of the shares? The company doesn’t even have a prototype yet, and you dare to ask this? You, Lu Yiming, are going to heaven. With nothing but a project book, do you dare to estimate the value at 1 billion? Am I crazy, or are you, Lu Yiming, crazy? ! “Lu Sheng, are you serious?” “Zhuang Sheng, do you think I’m joking?” “this…” “Two hundred million is impossible, and the shares are too few.” Zhuang Sheng was at least more tactful, but Su Rongrong was blunt. “Half a year later, if you want to get on board, the price will more than double.” Lu Yiming seemed to have anticipated this situation. I just adjusted my sitting posture. At this moment, in the eyes of Zhuang Sheng and Su Rongrong, Lu Yiming exuded strong self confidence. PS: Thanks to [Qiyue Wuyi jeff] for the reward of [King of Gifts], thanks to [Li Feixiang who is in pain] for the reward of [God Certification], thanks to [White Elephant White Elephant] for the reward of [Explosive Updates] Add one more chapter. The support of all readers is the source of motivation for the author. Chapter 147 Gambling Agreement Zhuang Sheng and Su Rongrong could not calm down for a long time. This price is crazy. I knew Lu Yiming was bold, but I didn’t expect that Lu Yiming would break through the sky. This is not an angel wheel, this is clearly a God wheel! “I can promise that we will not conduct Series A financing before 5 billion.” Lu Yiming crossed his legs, looking confident of victory. “Lu Sheng, it will be difficult for me to gain the support of shareholders just based on this.” Wireless is not something that Zhuang Sheng has the final say on alone. Even if Zhuang Sheng is optimistic about Lu Yiming, he still has to convince the board of directors to support him. But with just this plan, I’m afraid there’s no hope. As for Su Rongrong, she did not say anything. He was silent for a long time, as if thinking about something. “Within a week, we have a basic prototype, in three weeks we have the framework, and in two months, we have the new product launched.” “How is this possible?” Zhuang Sheng really couldn’t believe that Lu Yiming could create something from nothing in just 2 months. “You just have to choose to believe me.” Lu Yiming picked up the tea on the table and drank it all. “Including the gambling agreement, the number of real registered users exceeded 5 million within a year.” Su Rongrong, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. The first thing he said was a royal bomb. Zhuang Sheng was completely dumbfounded. Are all young people nowadays so radical? In Zhuang Sheng’s opinion, launching a new product within two months is an almost impossible task. But Su Rongrong actually asked Lu Yiming to complete the registration of 5 million real users within one year. This is simply… simply… outrageous! And it’s a bet agreement. One is asking for too much, and the other is forcing the other party into a desperate situation. By the way, are you two acting in front of yourselves? Given the unclear and unexplainable relationship between these two, is it necessary to be so drastic? “Five million real users?” “Do you dare?” Su Rongrong did not avoid Lu Yiming’s gaze at all. In Su Rongrong’s view, if one wants to turn a technology company into reality and become the best national technology in the country, the user base is the most critical. And I just gave a very reasonable basic value. If the company cannot reach the passing line within one year, its future will be bleak. Investors are not philanthropists and it is impossible for them to pay for dreams. Even if the other party is Lu Yiming, it is the same. When it comes to being realistic, Su Rongrong cannot let her emotions get the better of her. As for Zhuang Sheng standing aside, his face was filled with shock. This is a real negotiation. It can no longer be described as “young people are to be feared”. At least at this moment, the two people in front of him did not have any personal feelings. It’s all about weighing the pros and cons for yourself. sharp. “Lu Sheng, if you can agree to this bet agreement, I am confident that I can convince the board of directors.” Zhuang Sheng added fuel to the fire. Although at the beginning, Zhuang Sheng did not see the key. But as soon as Su Rongrong opened her mouth, Zhuang Sheng reacted immediately. Yes, user base means the future development of the company, and this is the key. Su Rongrong was able to think of this in such a short time. She had a sharp and accurate vision. Now, it depends on how Lu Yiming responds. On the other hand, after Su Rongrong proposed the bet agreement, Lu Yiming stood up calmly and poured himself a cup of tea. After a brief moment of surprise at first, his eyes were filled with admiration for Su Rongrong. Hit the snake at its most vulnerable part. Although this metaphor is not quite appropriate, Su Rongrong did grasp the point. “Can.” After a long time, Lu Yiming put down the teacup. “Are you sure? 5 million real users.” Su Rongrong confirmed again. “Of course, I won’t fool you with false data. After all, Lu’s Group’s investment far exceeds yours.” Different from Zhuang Sheng and Su Rongrong. These two are mostly investments. And Lu Yiming is going to gamble on the future of the Lu Group. Although the newly established company does not belong to the Lu Group, most of the start up capital will be borrowed from the Lu Group. Yes, it is a loan, not a controlling stake. Lu Yiming has his own plans. At this critical juncture, it is unlikely that he can force the Lu Group to transform. Not only would the group’s top management obstruct him, even his own father might not understand. The investment department under his control can conduct repo. In Lu Yiming’s opinion, two years is enough to turn things around. This is based on strong self confidence. “Also, 200 million, I want 25 percent.” Pushing further. Zhuang Sheng standing by was also stunned. Is it possible to talk like this? Although Zhuang Sheng had invested in many projects, this was the first time he had seen someone like Su Rongrong. “I’m giving you a fixed price. You should know that I need absolute say in the company.” To be honest, Lu Yiming has taken a very risky approach this time. After all, Zhuang Sheng and Su Rongrong together hold more than 33.1% of the shares and have the power of veto. For Lu Yiming, this was a risky move and a factor that he could not control. If it weren’t for the fact that the Su family is behind Gaoyuan Capital, it could solve domestic problems. The wireless represented by Zhuang Sheng can provide external technical support. Lu Yiming would never take such a risk. In the eyes of Su Rongrong and Zhuang Sheng, Lu Yiming was taking a risk. But in Lu Yiming’s own opinion, it was a steady and risk avoiding approach. As for more shares. it’s out of the question. Lu Yiming would rather work alone than increase his shares. “Hmph, that’s it, 20 percent.” Su Rongrong had a cold face. Of course, this is just a test. If we can talk, that’s the best. If not, Su Rongrong won’t suffer any loss. Su Rongrong: This bastard refused to give an inch at the critical moment. “I will prepare the contract in the next two days.” “No rush, it’s better to set up the stage. I hope to be signed by the new company, and I want to see it become an instant hit.” “As you wish.” The corners of Lu Yiming’s mouth curled up slightly. It’s once again that great minds think alike. What Su Rongrong wanted was exactly what Lu Yiming wanted to give. In conjunction with the spring breeze of this Hong Kong inspection team. Promote it well. It is also the most powerful voice in the technology circle. “Zhuang Sheng, what about you?” “Huh… I haven’t felt this exciting in a long time.” Su Rongrong has already discussed everything, Zhuang Sheng just needs to decide whether to follow through. After thinking for a moment, Zhuang Sheng stood up and faced Lu Yiming. “This may be the most important investment in my life, Lu Sheng, you won’t let me down.” Zhuang Sheng stretched out his right hand and shook it tightly with Lu Yiming. In just one and a half hours, Lu Yiming secured an investment of 400 million yuan. This is absolutely crazy. Who would have thought that Lu Yiming was the real winner of this inspection trip. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… It seems like I have worked in vain, and in the end I was just helping this bastard set the stage to perform. Su Rongrong, who understood what was going on, was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. This piece of shit… Chapter 148 What if you devote your entire life to your dream? “Cheng Xiao, come to my office.” As soon as Lu Yiming returned to Lu Group, he called Cheng Xiao into his office. “Mr. Lu?” She doesn’t wear any makeup, but she is still stunningly beautiful. Now that Cheng’s mother is out of danger and Cheng Xiao has completely solved her own problems, she can devote herself to work. Cheng Xiao is a mess emotionally and can only numb herself with work. During this period, Cheng Xiao rarely saw Lu Yiming. I originally thought that Lu Yiming didn’t want to face me, so he chose to treat it coldly. I’m afraid he doesn’t want to hurt himself. “Have you ever thought about moving to another place?” Originally, Cheng Xiao wanted to take this opportunity to make her attitude clear. Work is work, life is life, Cheng Xiao will never confuse the two. There was no need for Lu Yiming to avoid him. I can control myself very well. But before Cheng Xiao could open her mouth, Lu Yiming’s words instantly made Cheng Xiao fall to the bottom. Change place? Is Lu Yiming going to drive me away? For a moment, Cheng Xiao felt as if her soul had been sucked out of her. My mind went blank. I could clearly see Lu Yiming’s mouth moving, but I couldn’t hear any sound. Why? Why do this? I clearly had exercised great self control. By the way, did my mother receive medical treatment? In Lu Yiming’s opinion, he has come out of despair, so, so… “Cheng Xiao?” “Cheng Xiao?!” Lu Yiming looked up and found that Cheng Xiao, who was standing in front of him, looked like she had lost her soul. I shouted several times, but the other party didn’t come back to his senses. “Mr. Lu, is it because I didn’t do well enough? Or am I not working hard enough?” “Well?” Lu Yiming was confused. What did this mean? Wasn’t what I just expressed clear enough? “Boss Lu, if I’m not doing well enough, you can tell me and I will work harder. Don’t worry, I don’t expect anything. Please don’t let me leave the company, okay?” Having given myself hope, at this moment, am I going to let myself experience despair again? Or maybe, my existence touched some people? Forcing Lu Yiming to make such a choice? In an instant, I thought of all the possibilities again. But doing so is unfair to yourself. Since coming to the Investment Department, Cheng Xiao’s efforts have been obvious to all. Both Cheng Xiao’s colleagues and Vice President Li praised Cheng Xiao highly. From questioning Lu Yiming’s decision at the beginning to accepting and appreciating Cheng Xiao, this transformation was entirely based on Cheng Xiao’s ability and dedication. Cheng Xiao is always the last employee to leave the investment department. Although she could have made a living with her looks, Cheng Xiao chose a thorny path. Along the way, Cheng Xiao overcame all obstacles and finally earned the respect of everyone. But at this moment, Lu Yiming’s words made all his efforts go to waste. Cheng Xiao was unwilling, but what could she do? It’s not my fault that I fell in love with you. “Wait, did you misunderstand something?” “Boss Lu, please rest assured that I will never bring my personal feelings into work. I…” “Stop.” Lu Yiming pressed his swollen head and realized that he was misunderstood again. “Sit down.” “Mr. Lu.” “You sit down.” At Lu Yiming’s insistence, Cheng Xiaoxiao sat opposite Lu Yiming. “Look at this.” Lu Yiming handed the previous plan to Cheng Xiao. “Look carefully. If you don’t understand anything, feel free to ask me.” “good.” Although she didn’t know Lu Yiming’s intention, Cheng Xiao still opened the project plan in her hand. For Cheng Xiao, as long as it is a task assigned by Lu Yiming, she must complete it 100%. It’s like a gene etched in our bones. Half an hour, an hour… Cheng Xiao’s eyes became more and more shocked. Such a huge project, this… Lu Yiming was not in a hurry, but gave Cheng Xiao enough time to digest it. “Mr. Lu, I’ve finished reading it.” “Tell me what you think.” “This is… wild and unreal.” Cheng Xiao didn’t know how to evaluate this plan. It includes the possibilities for the next twenty years. To be honest, even Cheng Xiao would find it difficult to digest it in a short period of time. “Cheng Xiao, have you ever had a dream?” “dream?” Lu Yiming’s question made Cheng Xiao fall into deep thought again. Your own dream? My biggest dream is that my mother can recover. Now, this dream has come true. As for her next dream, Cheng Xiao hopes to be able to stay with the man in front of her for the rest of her life. Even if it is just silent companionship, she would be willing to do so. However, I cannot express this dream aloud. Cheng Xiao was afraid that once she expressed her feelings, Lu Yiming would move further away from her. “Cheng Xiao, this is my dream, a leading national technology company that belongs entirely to our people.” Yes, this business plan records Lu Yiming’s development plan for the next twenty years. Moreover, in this era, this plan can only be called a dream. Even Cheng Xiao was not sure whether Lu Yiming could achieve the above goal. “Boss Lu, what do you need me to do?” But even so, Cheng Xiao still blurted it out. There is no need to care about the ending. Even if there is a thorny road ahead, Cheng Xiaoxiao will still move forward bravely. Just because this is Lu Yiming’s dream. Even if she spends her whole life, as long as she can fulfill Lu Yiming’s dream, then for Cheng Xiao, it will be worth it. “Cheng Xiao, I believe in your ability. Being an assistant is not your final destination. You need a stage to show yourself. Now the opportunity has come. I need you to pave the way for me.” Lu Yiming is temporarily unable to leave the Lu Group. The Lu family needs Lu Yiming to take charge. After much thought, Cheng Xiao may be the best candidate. Of course, Lu Yiming also considered Li Li and Wang Lan. But in comparison, although Li Li is capable enough, her ability to accept new things is obviously inferior to Cheng Xiao. Only by staying in Lu’s can Li Li play the greatest role. As for Wang Lan, his ability and vision are sufficient, but his ambition is too big. Once Lu Yiming’s checks and balances are lost, Wang Lan is likely to “lose control”. Lu Yiming couldn’t take such a risk. Therefore, Cheng Xiao is my best choice. Cheng Xiao is fully capable of handling the initial stage, and Lu Yiming has already selected helpers for Cheng Xiao. “If I can help you, I’d like to.” “You can think about it carefully. After all, you have left the comfort zone of the Lu Group. Business war is cruel.” Lu Yiming was afraid that Cheng Xiao would agree in a rush and regret it in the future. “No, I’ve thought it through clearly. For your dream, I’m willing.” For Cheng Xiao, there was no complicated reason for making this decision. Just because this is Lu Yiming’s dream, so even if it takes his entire life, he will realize it for Lu Yiming, that’s all! Chapter 149 Young people don’t know how good their elder sister is “Brother, why did you think of calling me?” “I’ll treat you to dinner tonight.” “ha?” Liang Qian asked, maybe she heard it wrong? Missing you too much, causing hallucinations? Lu Yiming invites me to dinner? The sun is rising from the west. You know, ever since I showed that kind of intention last time, my stinky little brother has been avoiding me. This made Liang Qian very angry. Humph, you are young and don’t know how good your sister is. You mistakenly treat a girl as a treasure. You are bound to regret it in the future! When I was young, I didn’t know how beautiful my sister was, and I mistakenly spent my youth on planting rice seedlings. Have you come to your senses now? Do you want to find your sister? Liang Qian really wanted to tell Lu Yiming that you ignored me yesterday, but you are out of my league today. Unfortunately, although the idea was good, it changed instantly when the words came out of my mouth. “Whenever I am free, I will have the time and the place.” Liang Qian: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I really want to give myself a big slap in the face. Why agreed to do it so quickly? Can’t you be a little more reserved? Why can I come when you wave me and go when you call me? However, the mouth just doesn’t follow the brain’s command, and Liang Qian is helpless. “Six thirty in the evening, People’s Park, Ministry.” “good.” Liang Qian: I agreed. I just agreed to it. After hanging up the phone, Liang Qian still regretted it. Why can’t I control myself like this? “Is it Mr. Lu?” The ocean on the side winked. Very good, Liang Qian is taking Haiyang and Zhang Bing to investigate the market. The Xiaolingtong project is in full swing. Because of Liang Qian’s relationship, Haiyang and Zhang Bing can get the goods first hand. For the two of them, this is naturally an opportunity to make money without doing anything. It is said that when you drink water, you should remember the person who dug the well. Now that Haiyang and Zhang Bing have become rich, they naturally cannot forget Liang Qian. Besides, Mr. Lu gave me the opportunity only out of Sister Qian’s consideration. You don’t need to work hard at all. Just give money to anyone and they will become rich. Now that you have tasted the sweetness. Then, we must seize this hard won opportunity and expand our business. Haiyang and Zhang Bing studied the future trends of Xiaolingtong and found that the future market of Xiaolingtong is limitless. So the two of them decided to go straight to Liang Qian. Why not just do something big? How big can it be? That is to take over the general agent of the three provinces surrounding the Magic City. Rapid expansion will definitely not be a problem as long as we have the support of Mr. Lu. This is also the reason why Zhang Bing and Haiyang wanted to bring Liang Qian along. Don’t look at the monk’s face, look at the Buddha’s face. The two could see that Lu Yiming was very good to Liang Qian. Besides, Sister Qian is the largest shareholder this time. If there is any money to be made, Sister Qian will make the most. The two of them were just drinking a sip of soup. Liang Qian was naturally moved by the brothers’ persuasion. When did making money become so easy? This is much more profitable than opening your own bar. The three offline stores recovered their investment within a week of trial. This greatly increased Liang Qian’s confidence. They expanded aggressively, taking advantage of the golden age of PHS and making money just by opening a store. The three of them chose prime roads. Although the rent was not cheap, it was nothing compared to the profit. “None of your business!” Liang Qian rolled her eyes at Haiyang. A grown man is so gossipy. Today, Haiyang and Zhang Bing are no longer as “embarrassed” as they were more than a month ago. If the two of them go out now, they will go straight to a five star hotel. Continuous profits, money is a man’s courage. Of course, all of this is thanks to Mr. Xiao Lu, and Haiyang and Zhang Bing always keep this in mind. “Sister Qian, what do you think of this shop in front? It’s a little small at more than 50 square meters, but it’s definitely in a prime location.” “I just observed that this is the place with the most people in the city. If we open a store here, it will definitely be very popular.” “Wait, what time is it?” “It’s 3pm, what’s wrong?” Haiyang and Zhang Bing were confused. What was going on? “not good.” Liang Qian became anxious instantly. I am in Zhejiang City now. When Liang Qian answered the phone just now, she was so excited that she forgot about this. It takes at least three and a half hours to get from Zhejiang City to Shanghai, which means that even if I leave now, I will probably be late. “You guys can handle it. I’m going back to the Magic City first.” “No, Sister Qian, are you in such a hurry?” Haiyang was confused. He just answered a call from Mr. Lu, so why was he so impatient? “Okay, Mr. Lu has an appointment, how can Liang Qian not be anxious?” Zhang Bing on the side said something in support of Liang Qian, but the expression on his face was a little bitter. Although he had let it go in his heart, Liang Qian was still the goddess he had been in love with for more than ten years. I still feel bad. “Sister Qian, since you want to meet Mr. Lu, please ask him if you can give us an extra 20% for our goods.” Looking at Liang Qian’s receding back, Haiyang reacted and shouted loudly. “knew!” Liang Qian didn’t look back, but waved her hand to show that she understood. All I can say is that the sales of Xiaolingtong are so good that no matter how much there is, it can be sold out. In order to obtain supplies, the telecommunications group has been urging Lu to speed up production. Not to mention offline retail. Even after opening up all channels, Xiaolingtong is still selling at a premium. This alone has made history. Lu Yiming also taught everyone a good lesson. It turns out that goods can be sold this way. Monopoly plus hunger marketing created this miracle. “Hey, look how excited Sister Qian is. You better hold on, buddy.” Haiyang put his arm around Zhang Bing’s shoulders. “Don’t be so annoying. I’ve let it go. I’m not worthy of Liang Qian.” “Brother, don’t underestimate yourself. There are many better women out there. Don’t be obsessed with just one flower. Sister Qian is great, but you need to look at the world.” “Get lost.” Zhang Bing glanced at his bad friend. It was easy for this guy to say that. But looking at Liang Qian’s hurried back, Zhang Bing felt worried. It doesn’t matter if I lose, Mr. Lu is indeed much better than me. I am afraid that the goddess is interested, but the king is ruthless. Zhang Bing saw Liang Qian’s initiative and dedication. But what about Mr. Lu? He is obviously avoiding this relationship. I don’t know if Liang Qian will be injured. “Okay, this is not something we can consider. So, I’ll take you to the biggest nightclub in the city tonight. Let’s have some fun. Don’t worry, I’ll pay for it this time.” The ocean patted its chest and took on a lot of responsibilities. “It’s crazy beyond measure.” “Dude, this is making money.” “Let’s negotiate for the store first.” “no problem!” The two brothers left arm in arm. Haiyang was happy for Zhang Bing, as it seemed his buddy had really let it go. As for Liang Qian. Driving my car, I drove onto the highway back to Shanghai. We drove at full speed all the way and finally parked the car outside the People’s Park before 6:30. Chapter 150: The Best of Bullshit “What’s going on?” Liang Qian, who came over excitedly, looked a little ugly when she saw Cheng Xiao sitting next to Lu Yiming. What’s the meaning? My stinky little brother came to me, could it be that he wants to make their relationship public? I had already noticed that something was wrong between Lu Yiming and Cheng Xiao. The Lu Yiming that he knew was not the type to meddle in other people’s business. But in the bar, Lu Yiming stood up for Cheng Xiao. Now, he actually brought Cheng Xiao to see me? Could it be… “Cheng Xiao, you know him.” “Of course, he was originally my key training target.” “Don’t worry, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.” “What’s the meaning?” Liang Qian was relieved that it wasn’t made public, but she really couldn’t figure out what her naughty brother was trying to do. “I want to start a technology company.” “ha?” Liang Qian was completely confused. What she thought was going on was really strange. The Lu Group was already on the path of diversified development, so why did they suddenly want to set up a new company? “Brother, although your vision is very powerful, isn’t it too radical at this stage?” Liang Qian, who had reacted, did not want to pour cold water on Lu Yiming, but it was indeed necessary to keep Lu Yiming sober enough. Although Xiaolingtong’s business continues to be popular, after all, Xiaolingtong has nothing to do with technology companies. In case Lu Yiming was acting on a whim, or had lost himself in success, Liang Qian felt that she needed to cool Lu Yiming down. “I’m quite sober. Let’s eat first. These Sri Lankan crabs are good.” The world’s top 50 restaurants are naturally extraordinary. Liang Qian rushed back and was indeed hungry. Food and champagne complement each other perfectly. While eating, Lu Yiming also explained his own philosophy again. “Ha, I didn’t expect that you, my brother, have such lofty ideals.” “Of course, do you think I only have eyes for money?” “Isn’t it?” “Well…” Well, if we were to say who has the deepest understanding of Lu Yiming at this stage, it would probably be Liang Qian. After all, the two have known each other for much longer than Cheng Xiao and Su Rongrong. The Lu Yiming that Cheng Xiao and Su Rongrong are familiar with is the reborn Lu Yiming. Before his rebirth, Lu Yiming was, in Liang Qian’s words, a typical playboy. Naturally, money is taken very seriously. After all, only with money can Lu Yiming ensure that he can live a life of luxury. “I was young and ignorant before.” “And now?” There was light in Liang Qian’s eyes. She was young and ignorant before and mistook her sister for grass. Now that you are mature, have you seen a different side of your sister? “Now of course I want my sister’s help.” Liang Qian: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Uh, I guessed the beginning, but not the ending. Although it is related to myself. However, it seems that this is not the answer I want. Looking at Cheng Xiao next to Lu Yiming, she did not do anything out of the ordinary from beginning to end. It is generally difficult for young couples in love to hide the details. But these two are completely different. From the beginning to the end, Cheng Xiao maintained a sense of boundaries between superiors and subordinates. Could it be that I really guessed wrong? But he could clearly find from his own observation that Cheng Xiao had a familiar feeling when looking at Lu Yiming. Just like when he looked at Lu Yiming. So, there is only one answer, Cheng Xiao is the same as me. “What are you thinking about?” Lu Yiming introduced his plan, but Liang Qian did not respond for a long time. This made Lu Yiming confused. What was going on? Could it be that my introduction was not perfect enough? Or is it that Liang Qian is no longer at the age of passion? “What a ruthless man.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Cheng Xiao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What a mess? Lu Yiming said so much, but Liang Qian was just wandering in the universe. A puzzling answer. “Ahem, I mean, I want to look at you with new eyes.” “So, are you interested?” “I?” I just want to ask, what does this have to do with me? “I can’t show up at this stage. In the early stages of starting a business, I need to build the company’s structure. In this regard, I think you are the best.” What was shown in Lu Yiming’s eyes was sincerity and trust. Under such a gaze, Liang Qian almost nodded in agreement. “Wait, stop flattering me. Tell me, why does it have to be me?” Fortunately, Liang Qian reacted in time and was almost tricked into it by the stinky little brother. Well, I have never run a company. At best, I just run a bar. The difference is not slight. Is this stinky brother trying to coax the child? I almost believed it. Liang Qian crossed her arms across her chest and sneered. Well, ever since I came here, my stinky little brother has been complimenting me all the time. This is obviously not normal, okay? Humph, based on my understanding of Lu Yiming, he must be setting a trap for me. “How could that be, Sister Qian? We’ve known each other for so long, and you still don’t know what kind of person I am?” “You little bastard, you do no good and always make trouble out of nothing…” “Stop, can we still have a good chat? Lu Yiming was sweating all over his forehead. Was he really as bad as Liang Qian said? Well, Lu Yiming admitted that he was a bit of a jerk before his reincarnation, but he was still quite kind. Besides, if I were really that bad, how could Liang Qian always be so nice to me? Liang Qian: Have you ever heard the saying that women only love bad men? I just like to challenge difficult things. “You asked me to say this, come on, stop hiding it, I’m not that naive.” “They are all sincere.” “You won’t tell me, right? That’s fine. As a friend, I wish you success in your business. Also, thank you for treating me. The food here is really good. I will come here often in the future.” Liang Qian pretended to stand up and leave. Little guy, can’t I control you? “Stop. You have a rich educational background. If the company wants to develop, what it lacks most now is talent, especially computer talents. I plan to recruit outstanding graduates this year, preferably those with experience and recognition.” “ha!” Liang Qian showed an expression that said, “As expected.” I knew that my naughty brother would never suddenly change his character. When did he become so generous? You know, this meal is not cheap. For champagne alone, we chose the best in the country. It turns out that he was waiting for me here. “Brother, you are so arrogant. Even if it is a leading state owned enterprise, it would not dare to be so arrogant to recruit this year’s outstanding graduates.” “It’s not like you’re here, Sister Qian.” Lu Yiming knew Liang Qian’s family background very well. Especially his background in education, which is very profound. If Liang Qian is willing to agree, I don’t have to worry about the talent. Chapter 151 I Do “I won’t go for a small fight.” Liang Qian turned the wine glass in front of her. In fact, Lu Yiming had already convinced her. But after all, it was his little brother who was begging her to do something, so she had to take the opportunity to be arrogant. “One billion, is that enough?” “Pfft, how much?” The sound of swallowing saliva. I almost spit out the wine I just drank. Did you, Lu Yiming, do this on purpose? ! He took this opportunity to say it, obviously wanting to see himself embarrassed. Liang Qian’s family is considered wealthy in Shanghai. Otherwise, it would be impossible to send Liang Qian to study abroad in this era. It is even more impossible that after Liang Qian returned to China, he would spend a huge amount of money to open a bar for Liang Qian in the city center. Liang Qian has been treated like a princess since she was a child. But in the final analysis, Liang Qian’s family is only worth tens of millions. Of course, in this era, he is indeed considered a wealthy man. However, Lu Yiming asked for 1 billion yuan right away. This completely stunned Liang Qian. Not only Liang Qian, but Cheng Xiao beside her was even more stunned. What did you just hear? An estimated investment of 1 billion yuan? Cheng Xiao naturally would not doubt Lu Yiming’s words. Suddenly I felt like a huge burden was on my shoulders. I can’t afford it at all. “Mr. Lu.” “Stop, don’t back down. All you need is basic operations. The general direction is clear. We are not asking you to start from scratch.” “No, if I lose, I won’t be able to pay even if I sell myself.” Liang Qian rolled her eyes charmingly. You naughty brother, you are just scaring me. However, Lu Yiming knew Liang Qian’s personality very well. Once Liang Qian is given enough pressure, greater motivation will be unleashed. When Liang Qian returned to China to start her own business, her entire family was against it. After all, I spent so much money on studying, and I returned to China with a double master’s degree. In this day and age, Liang Qian can easily choose senior executive positions in foreign companies or leadership positions in state owned enterprises. The family also hopes that Liang Qian can enter a foreign or state owned enterprise to give full play to her strengths. Besides, the family’s connections are there, so no matter what choice Liang Qian makes, her family will give great support. No matter how bad the situation is, it is still possible to enter the officialdom. But Liang Qian actually wanted to open a bar. This decision almost sent the old man to the hospital. We spent so much money just to let you return to China and open a bar? In order to realize her dream, Liang Qian fought with her family for a long time. Finally, out of desperation, the parents signed a contract with Liang Qian, and the money for opening the bar was regarded as a loan for the family. Whether you make a profit or a loss, you have to pay it back. If you can’t afford it, then just listen to your family and do what you should do. As a result, under this kind of pressure, Liang Qian succeeded in starting her own business, and the name of “True Love” resounded throughout the Magic City. As for now, Lu Yiming needs Liang Qian’s professional knowledge and ability to shoulder this heavy responsibility. “The loss is mine.” “Aren’t you afraid of not being able to turn over?” “Then you will support me forever.” Liang Qian: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… This seems to be okay, or should I just screw it up? I will support you for the rest of your life. Well, this tempting idea is just a fantasy of Liang Qian. “Okay, stinky brother, I’ll take it.” Liang Qian just thought for a moment, slapped the table, and picked up the wine glass in front of her. “It’s been a pleasure working with you.” Lu Yiming stood up as well and winked at Cheng Xiao who was still confused. When the latter stood up, he was still confused. Just like that, the three wine glasses clinked together. The three founding members of this technological giant that would later dominate the world reached a consensus at this moment. It can even be said that this is a historic moment. “Okay, I’ll take the information back to study.” “good.” Lu Yiming is very confident in Liang Qian. Don’t employ people you doubt, and don’t doubt people you employ; this is Lu Yiming’s principle. “Mr. Lu, I’m afraid…” Seeing Liang Qian leave, Cheng Xiao hesitated to speak. At first, I only knew to follow Lu Yiming’s orders. But who could have imagined that the size of this company would be so outrageous. Cheng Xiao’s heart was beating violently and couldn’t calm down for a long time. “Do you know why I chose you?” “I…” Cheng Xiao didn’t know. To be honest, since Lu Yiming appeared in my life, my life has taken a 180 degree turn. All along, Cheng Xiao felt that she was always pushed forward by Lu Yiming. Entered Lu Group, joined the investment department, and became Lu Yiming’s assistant. Although Cheng Xiao has been working very hard. But up to now, I have not made any decent achievements. And now, Lu Yiming is going to entrust such an important task to himself. For Cheng Xiao, she really didn’t know what to do. “Compared to others, what you lack most is ambition.” “Mr. Lu.” “However, this may also be your advantage. You are capable and talented, but not ambitious. Employees like you are the boss’s favorite.” “like?” This was the first time that Lu Yiming said the word “like” to himself. Although Cheng Xiao knew that this liking had nothing to do with what she expected. But I still couldn’t help my heart beating faster. “Yeah, the boss loves to exploit employees like you.” “I do.” “What?” “I am willing to be squeezed by you.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… How come I didn’t realize that Cheng Xiao actually has a bit of a masochistic tendency? “Okay, I’m not kidding you. I chose you because I trust you. I don’t have many people around me who can be used. In comparison, you are the best choice. You can carry out my instructions without reservation, no matter whether they are right or wrong, and this is exactly what I need most now.” “Mr. Lu, I seem to understand.” “Don’t feel burdened. In the future, you will be a strong woman standing in the spotlight. It’s time to adjust your mentality.” Yes, Lu Yiming wanted to train Cheng Xiao from the very beginning. The same thing. In this life, except love, I can give Cheng Xiao everything. Since Cheng Xiao does have talent in this area. Then, I can give Cheng Xiao a stage to display her talents. As for Liang Qian at this moment, she returned to her home early. Liang Qian’s parents looked at their beloved daughter who had returned early with a confused look on their faces. “You’re back so early today?” “Yes, from now on, your daughter will turn over a new leaf.” Liang Qian sighed, she was just impulsive and agreed to her rude brother. On the way back, the evening breeze blew and my mind became much clearer. Only then did I realize that I was on a pirate ship. Because of my stinky little brother, I ended up living the life I least wanted to live. Freedom. The freedom that he desired most, from now on, all his time would probably be given to Lu Yiming. “What’s the meaning.” Liang’s father and mother looked at each other, really unable to understand the meaning behind their daughter’s words. “Hey, your precious daughter has met a profiteer this time, and it’s the kind that will make her lose her whole life. I won’t say any more. Starting tomorrow, she will work from nine to five.” this… “My daughter just said, is it time to work seriously?” “It seems so.” “real?!” “Why do I feel like I’m dreaming?” The daughter finally lived the life she wanted, but it had nothing to do with her parents. She changed for a man. Chapter 152 Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. How terrifying is Cheng Xiao’s execution ability? Within one week, the company was registered, approved, site selected and completed. All of this was accomplished in just one week. Even if the Lu Group has a powerful background, it will not give the green light everywhere. During this period, the leaders of the industrial and commercial departments were extremely troubled. I am like an extra non staff employee, coming earlier than everyone else and leaving later than everyone else. Keep an eye on which stage the process is at. It seriously “disrupted” the normal work process, but the key point is that Cheng Xiao is a great beauty and a formal employee of the Lu Group. With strong connections, close surveillance and good looks, these factors combined make it really impossible to do anything about it. Speed up the approval process. This was the only solution the leader could think of. Therefore, with Cheng Xiao’s continuous efforts, the license that usually takes a month to be approved was successfully obtained in less than a week. “Thanks.” “Auntie, don’t thank me. Don’t come here if you don’t have anything to do in the future.” The organizing staff were in tears. For a whole week, they didn’t even have a chance to slack off. A pair of beautiful big eyes, always staying on me. Even at night, I could dream about such scenes. I have to admit that at the beginning, being constantly watched by beautiful women did make me feel good. There is a kind of floating pride. But I really can’t stand it all the time. Are you suffering from neurasthenia? 【Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd.】 With the freshly issued business license in hand, Cheng Xiao took the first step towards becoming a strong woman. Perhaps Cheng Xiao herself would never think of it. A technological legend belonging to China officially set sail from this moment. As for the location, since it was a startup, Cheng Xiao did not choose the current financial circle. The idea of saving when possible and spending when possible has been deeply rooted in Cheng Xiao’s mind. Cheng Xiao, who has been used to hard times, knows how to save every penny. This may be the unexpected surprise that Lu Yiming chose Cheng Xiao. In the end, Cheng Xiao chose the remote suburbs. Located near Qibao Old Street. Of course, in twenty years, this place will develop into the financial sub center of Shanghai, but at this stage, the surrounding area is really deserted except for the old and dilapidated houses. But what Cheng Xiao values is its future potential and convenient transportation. The only business center here was jointly built by a state owned enterprise and the local government. It was originally intended to serve as the district’s investment business card to attract more companies to settle down. It’s a pity that not many people prefer the suburbs at this stage. One year after the commercial building was built, the occupancy rate is less than 10%. Large areas of floors are vacant, and it is positioned as a 5A class office building. State owned enterprises are losing money every day. The government is not having a good time either. Compared with other urban areas, the financial development in the old district has always lagged behind. Now that the investment has increased, but there is no actual effect, it is naturally a headache for the district leaders. And at this critical moment, Cheng Xiao came to the door. At first, the property manager of the office building didn’t take it too seriously. Although the vacancy rate is high, it is still up to the standard of a 5A grade office building. The rent of office buildings is not affordable for everyone. The little girl in front of me is beautiful. But it’s really too young. Even if the family has a mine, parents would not dare to let them be responsible for such a large project. Therefore, at the beginning of the reception, the property manager did not hold high hopes. “Little girl, you have seen the situation here. To be honest, although the occupancy rate is not high, we still will not choose the temporary rental model.” The property manager’s words were euphemistic, but in fact they were a disguised rejection of Cheng Xiao. No wonder the person in charge of the property looked unhappy. During this period, a strict order was issued from above, and the leader had specifically mentioned me at the meeting. The predetermined occupancy rate must be achieved within the specified time. Otherwise, the heads of state owned enterprises will be in trouble. Of course, if the boss above is in trouble, the person in charge below will not escape either. I’m afraid I’ll lose my job. But changing the current situation is probably not an easy task. After all, the conditions don’t allow it and I can’t perform magic tricks. The first thing I do when I open my eyes every day is sigh. I originally thought I had picked up a huge bargain. My colleagues were extremely envious of me for having such a luxurious 5A class business building to manage. Who could have thought that this was not a smooth journey to the top, but that he was about to lose his job. And today I heard from my subordinates that someone wanted to rent a house. The property manager was extremely excited. I quickly put down all the work at hand and rushed down, and the result was… “Excuse me, how many square meters is the first floor?” “layer?” Property manager: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Haha, young people nowadays really ask for too much. The yawn is really big, and there is one floor, which is a full 3,000 square meters! “Little girl, stop joking.” “We are qualified.” As she spoke, Cheng Xiao took out the business license she was carrying with her. However, in the eyes of the property manager, this scene looked like a shell company. In this era, there are many people starting their own businesses, and corresponding shell companies have naturally sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. The vast majority of companies have registered capital of less than 100,000 yuan. It’s basically just for fun. I have seen many companies like this. “Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd.? Each name is more impressive than the other.” When the person in charge saw the name on the business license, he smiled disdainfully. The company names are more domineering than each other. Just like the positions on business cards, it is either chairman of the board or general manager. So one person can play all the roles. However, the next moment, the property manager’s originally disdainful expression completely froze on his face. His eyes widened instantly. What did you see? Registered capital column. One zero, two zeros… five zeros, six zeros?! this… Could it be that I am dazzled? Under Cheng Xiao’s puzzled gaze, the person in charge rubbed his eyes fiercely. Yes, I read it right. It’s hundreds of millions, tens of millions, and hundreds of millions! Registered capital of 100 million? ! The person in charge said that he had never seen so much money in his life. Although it is only registered capital. But, how many people in Shanghai today can afford this amount of money? “Little girl, oh, no, ma’am, no, I mean, what’s your name?” It was the first time that Cheng Xiao saw the face changing skill up close. “No need to worry about your surname being Cheng.” “It turns out to be Mr. Cheng. It’s really better to meet him in person than to hear about him.” “Do you know me?” “How could that be possible? Mr. Cheng, you are a big boss, how could you know us little people? What I mean is, now we know each other, Mr. Cheng, please wait a moment, I will make you a cup of coffee, and later, I will personally take you to visit our business building.” This was also the first time that Cheng Xiao felt the changes brought about by her identity. Although he was not used to it, he would never lose Lu Yiming. From now on, what I represent outside is Lu Yiming and China Longteng Network Technology. You must quickly adapt to your new identity. Chapter 153 Government’s Attitude “Brother, I’ve got it done. How are you going to thank me?” I received a call from Liang Qian in the middle of the day, and her excited tone was full of pride. To be honest, apart from Liang Qian, most people can’t do this. The time for campus recruitment has been missed, but Lu Yiming needs highly professional fresh graduates. Liang Qian initially thought about poaching people from other companies. But the cost is really too high. Based on the principle of saving every penny for the company, Liang Qian finally went back to her hometown to find her grandfather. It’s rare for her granddaughter to come to him for something, so the grandfather is naturally curious. What kind of thing could make his proud granddaughter humble herself? But when he heard it was about school recruitment, my grandfather’s face immediately turned dark. Just kidding, even if I am an old leader of the Education Bureau of Shanghai, this year’s school recruitment has already ended. Even if it is yourself, you cannot interfere casually. Besides, this year’s campus recruitment went very smoothly, and many large companies participated in this year’s campus recruitment. The employment rate of local universities in Shanghai has reached a new high. In this situation, his granddaughter actually wanted to interfere. As a leader, I naturally couldn’t agree to this. “Qianqian, it’s not that grandpa doesn’t agree. The key is that this year’s campus recruitment has ended. Look, the information has been compiled. We can’t hold a special one just for you.” Besides, what kind of bar is opened by my granddaughter? What does she need college students for? “No, Grandpa, there are always exceptions. Our company has just been established and needs government support. You have always advocated attracting investment and solving local employment needs. Now that we have finally made up our minds, you are making excuses and making obstacles again.” “I just spoiled you. You’re starting a business. Do your parents know about it?” Grandpa was both angry and amused. After returning from overseas, he insisted on opening a bar despite his family’s opposition. Liang Qian’s parents were almost sick from being angry. In the end, it was my grandfather’s support that enabled me to keep pursuing my dream. Now look what happens, he’s turning the tables on himself. “No, I’m serious this time.” “You can’t be serious about it. How can your scale compare with those foreign and state owned enterprises? They don’t have any privileges. If you do this, it will make it difficult for the comrades below you to do their work.” “Grandpa, you are wrong. What we need to do is…” No, we have to change grandpa’s old ideas first. In addition, what Lu Yiming wants to create is Internet technology and a national brand that belongs to the Chinese nation. Is this comparable to foreign companies? No matter how well they develop, they are still not as good as us flower growers in the end. “Grandpa, others are only attracted by our rapidly developing market economy, but we are different. We want to build a brand that belongs to China and serves China.” “Um?” Liang Qian’s grandfather never thought that his granddaughter would have such an idea. this… To be honest, it is really hard not to be moved by such original intention. Especially old school revolutionaries like Grandpa Liang Qian. Everything should be put first with the motherland. “Girl, tell me, is this really what you think?” “Look down on me?” “Humph, I know what you’re thinking. It’s definitely not such a big plan.” Liang Qian: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Okay, it wasn’t me. It was Lu Yiming who found me.” “The kid from the Lu family?” “Grandpa, can you please stop calling me brat? Lu Yiming is very great now.” “Hey…” Liang Qian’s grandfather was naturally familiar with the boy from the Lu family. After all, the relationship between the two families was very good in their early years. Moreover, Liang Qian’s grandfather also knew what his granddaughter was thinking. No wonder he was willing to change his mind this time. It turned out that it was the boy from the Lu family who asked him to do so. Of course, this kid from the Lu family has indeed made quite a name for himself during this period of time. Although the national debt issue is highly confidential, someone of Liang Qian’s grandfather’s level still knows the inside story. I have to say that the boy from the Lu family sees things clearly. Moreover, at the last moment, he was able to restrain his ambition and consider the people. There is no harm to the country’s foundation in order to make money. That’s a good point. Much smarter than some people. Although any trades in the last few minutes will be cancelled. However, from the perspective of the young man from the Lu family, the fact that he could overcome his greedy desires was enough to move the old man. The subsequent PHS business also did well. Although the technology introduced was ordinary technology, it did fill the gap in the domestic communications field. Moreover, it also revitalized the telecommunications industry. He has a unique vision and acts decisively. Even the person behind the Lu family has started paying attention to Lu Yiming. In the words of Liang Qian’s grandfather, the Lu family boy has a bright future. However, Liang Qian’s grandfather did not expect that the boy from the Lu family would take new actions so soon. The idea is good, to establish an Internet technology company that belongs to the Chinese people. There are only a few people in China who have this kind of vision and courage. But Liang Qian’s grandfather looked further ahead. This road is definitely not easy to walk on. It is destined to be a road full of thorns. “Have you thought it through?” “Of course, I’m interested, Grandpa, but you can’t discourage me.” “Look at what you said. Are you afraid that you can’t help the Lu family kid?” The pattern, the pattern needs to be opened. If it really succeeds, it will be a great thing for the country. “Okay, no matter how big the scale is, I’ll think of a way. Campus recruitment is definitely not possible, but if it’s one or two schools, I can still find someone to try.” “One billion.” “Pfft, how much?” Although Liang Qian’s grandfather is optimistic about the boy from the Lu family, he has such vision at such a young age. But how much support can the Lu Group give to the Lu family boy? This is still an unknown. Besides, it is impossible for Lu Aijun to risk everything for Lu Yiming. Lu Aijun naturally understood the principle that one should not put all eggs in one basket. Liang Qian’s grandfather originally thought it was a company worth tens of millions. This is already the limit of the Lu Group. But who could have thought that his granddaughter would ask for 1 billion right away! You know, looking at the entire Magic City, private enterprises that can reach the 1 billion level are absolutely rare. this… Boy from the Lu family, you’re going to heaven! “grandfather?” “No, let me digest it.” Without making any noise, such a big fuss was created. Moreover, Liang Qian’s grandfather also knew that the Lu family alone did not have such strength. “Tell me what happened. The more detailed the better. It’s best not to miss any details.” Half an hour later. The old man, with a look of emotion on his face, sat on the sofa, unable to come back to his senses for a long time. The century old Su family is the banker of Hong Kong. No wonder, no wonder. Although I don’t know how Lu Yiming convinced them. “Great, great.” “grandfather?” “Stop talking. I’ll make the call now. Leave the campus recruitment to me.” If the government does not make any response at this time, it would be a lack of overall perspective. Liang Qian was confused. Why did it feel like her grandfather was more excited than her? Chapter 154 Campus Recruitment Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. was reported to the top management by Liang Qian’s grandfather. Unexpectedly, it attracted great attention. It was even discussed specifically at the Standing Committee meeting. In a word, the government must provide full support to investors with such ambitions. It’s just campus recruitment. arrange! All major universities in Shanghai received the notice. A special internal recruitment for network professionals will be held temporarily. This is the first time ever. School leaders were speculating on how powerful the Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. was. However, one thing is clear. From school leaders to graduating students, everyone takes this very seriously. In particular, the salary offered by Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. completely overturned the market perception. Lu Yiming has his own ideas. Talents should be given the best treatment. Whether it was Cheng Xiao or Liang Qian, they fully promoted this sentence. The salary and benefits of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. are 50% higher than the industry average in horizontal comparison. This alone is enough to attract many talents. On the day of campus recruitment, Lu Yiming went to the scene in person. Accompanied by Cheng Xiao and Liang Qian, friendly discussions were held with leaders of major universities. In this process, there were even more unexpected surprises. Lu Yiming even established good personal connections with several doctoral supervisors. Lu Yiming also stated on the spot that in the future, Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. will be committed to investing in the research and development of domestic network technology. Self research is the way out for the future. Yes, Lu Yiming also admitted that China today is extremely poor in the high tech market and relies entirely on purchasing high tech products for research and development and production. It is indeed unlikely to change this situation in a short period of time, but Lu Yiming is also confident. Under its own leadership, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. will surely be able to embark on a path of self sufficiency. This was also the first time that Lu Yiming expressed his ideas to the public in public. As for whether the industry is watching a joke or admiring Lu Yiming’s courage. This is not something Lu Yiming should consider. The campus recruitment fair went very smoothly. After all, what we are facing are not the “old foxes” in society. Rather, they are a group of idealistic young people who have just entered society. They all have dreams. Have not experienced the dangers of society. At the most passionate age, I met Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. Perhaps, this is the most suitable combination. The big move by Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. instantly attracted attention from the domestic network technology field. More than 90 percent of domestic Internet companies are controlled by foreign capital to varying degrees. Backed by foreign investment banks, or directly by large companies. They are not afraid of competitors. However, the sudden emergence of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. still put pressure on these companies. What kind of changes will take place in the domestic Internet technology field? Not sure now. But there is one thing that no one can underestimate: Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. “Well done.” In front of the gate of Magic City University. Lu Yiming said goodbye to the principal. For Lu Yiming, a graduate of Magic City University. The support from my alma mater is unreserved. The principal personally presided over the school recruitment. This is the first time in history. The principal has a high opinion of Lu Yiming. Such achievements were made in the first year after graduation. In the words of the principal, Lu Yiming will surely become an outstanding alumnus. “Cheng Xiao, the teacher has always been optimistic about you, but I didn’t expect you to be able to show your talent so soon. Yes, Lu Yiming is very good. If you join forces, you will definitely make history.” Cheng Xiao’s mentor was also very excited. Unexpectedly, I also brought up an extraordinary person. Moreover, it was Cheng Xiao whom he had never expected. “Teacher, I am just following Mr. Lu’s orders.” “Don’t underestimate yourself. If you are gold, you will always shine. The teacher has always been optimistic about you.” Although it was something she said against her will, Cheng Xiao was still very moved. During my four years in college, I rarely received recognition from my teachers. There was no other way. Cheng Xiao spent her four years in college working part time. She is clearly the only campus beauty in Magic City University. The class’s presence is not strong. Never won honor for the class. Compared to Su Rongrong, I am not even a little bit inferior. Perhaps, at this time, Su Rongrong is more suitable to stand by Lu Yiming’s side. Others may not know, but Cheng Xiao knows it very well. Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. is about to receive an investment led by Su Rongrong. If it is exposed, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. will definitely reach a new level. As for myself… Cheng Xiao looked at Lu Yiming who was standing next to the principal and chatting and laughing. I am not worthy of him now and don’t even have the qualifications to stand beside Lu Yiming. Such a gap did not make Cheng Xiao sink. But strengthened my own beliefs. Through my own efforts, I believe that one day in the future I will be able to achieve my wish. “Cheng Xiao?” “Cheng Xiao?!” “Teacher, I’m sorry, I was just thinking about something.” Cheng Xiao came back to her senses and said apologetically. “It’s okay. The teacher has entrusted our outstanding graduates to you. Do your best. The school and the teacher are proud of you.” This time, the recruitment is not just for computer science. Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. is starting from scratch and urgently needs a large number of talents to join. To this end, Cheng Xiao and Lu Yiming specially selected talents from major universities in Shanghai to enrich Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. At the same time, in order for Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. to get back on track quickly. Lu Yiming even poached people from the Lu Group. This also made Lu Aijun laugh and cry. My son wants to start a business, which is a good direction. But it’s a bit too much for my son to poach the elites of Lu Group. You know, those that Lu Yiming likes are all the backbones that the Lu family has cultivated over the years. Now it seems like all these years of hard work have been in vain. This made Lu Aijun angry. I want to go home and beat my son. It’s a pity that Lu Yiming had foresight. During this period of time, I didn’t go home at all. Angry Lu Aijun cursed Lu Yiming at home as a “bastard”. Even though he was unhappy, he still had to appease the group’s top management. Minimize losses. Is it easy for me to be a father? Although the top management was extremely angry, they could do nothing about Lu Yiming. So what if we poach people? Due to different industries, there is no need to abide by the confidentiality principle. No related fields will be involved within one year, and the talents trained will be free to come and go. This was a good lesson that Lu Yiming taught everyone. However, Lu Yiming kept the PHS business in the Lu Group and provided sufficient compensation. It’s really hard to say who wins and who loses. After half a year of late stage of good fortune, Lu Yiming will be able to leave the Lu family. As for Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd., it can only be remotely controlled at present. Fortunately, Cheng Xiao and Liang Qian are the people Lu Yiming trusts the most. Chapter 155 A wonderful relationship One month later, at the headquarters of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. “Everyone, work harder. I heard we are welcoming an important guest today.” “Yes, we had a special meeting yesterday afternoon, and our manager seemed very nervous.” “You didn’t see it today. Our CEO Cheng dressed up specially.” “Really?!” You know, I have been with Mr. Cheng for so many days and I have always been without makeup. Ms. Cheng is already as beautiful as a fairy even without dressing up. How breathtaking would she be when she dresses up? “Really? I heard that several colleagues in the data department felt dizzy early in the morning.” “Humph, a bunch of otakus like them, how dare they think about Mr. Cheng?” “You’re not going there either. Last time, when you came out after reporting your work to Mr. Cheng, your face was red.” “Fart, that’s too hot.” “Hot? It’s winter now.” “The heating is too strong…” “hehe…” Faced with the ridicule of colleagues, I could only turn around and leave. However, when my colleague said this, his eyes were full of envy. That’s great. I also want to have the opportunity to report my work to Mr. Cheng individually. Everyone in Huaxia Longteng Network Technology knows that General Manager Cheng Xiao is very approachable. Not to mention the male colleagues, even the female colleagues would be excited for half a day every time after greeting Mr. Cheng. As for the other Ms. Liang, she is naturally beautiful as well, but Liang Qian’s aura is too strong and strangers are not allowed to approach her. He is also in charge of the company’s personnel affairs. In comparison, everyone still likes Mr. Cheng more. Since its establishment, Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology has been operating step by step, with the scientific research and technical groups being the busiest. In comparison, other departments are relatively idle. Some people even feel that they are not worthy of such a high salary. Strangely enough, the company had a software direction from the very beginning. The company’s current main product is an online chat tool. It combines multiple practical functions in one. I heard that the research and development process is very fast and the testing of each node can be completed smoothly. The goal is very clear. To be honest, for software engineers, this kind of development does not seem to be about exploration, but about completing the specified work within the specified time node. More importantly, the solutions given above are the most optimized, at least for now. It was as if they already had an idea of what was going on and just needed to get the software made through their hands. This strange feeling is really hard to describe. Just as the employees of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology were speculating about today’s mysterious guest. Ms. Cheng Xiao and Ms. Liang Qian all showed up. this… You know, these two bosses are usually very busy. Except for meetings, we rarely meet. Who is coming today? Actually asking the two CEOs to give up their precious time and do it at the same time? Moreover, it was half an hour early. “Could this… be the legendary…” Gossip is everywhere. The same is true at Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology. As everyone knows, Mr. Liang and Mr. Cheng are both in the front stage. I heard that the real decision maker of the company is someone else. However, although the rumor has been around for many years, no one has ever seen its true appearance. The decision maker seems very mysterious. Many people are speculating which industry leader it will be. Or in other words, the wealthy people on the rich list have changed their track and entered the Internet technology industry with great strength. “Okay, no need to guess, you’ll see it soon.” Seeing that the two CEOs were already there and waiting, the managers of each department naturally did not dare to neglect them. They all took the initiative to stand behind the two CEOs. The scene suddenly became serious. The staff didn’t even dare to continue the conversation. Although gossip is fun, you should also know when to gossip. “Mr. Cheng is very positive.” Cheng Xiao and Liang Qian stood side by side. Liang Qian looked at her watch and saw that there were still 20 minutes left until the agreed time. I originally thought that I had been proactive enough, but I didn’t expect that Cheng Xiao arrived earlier than me. Humph, can you hide this little thought from yourself? “Mr. Liang, you’re joking. Mr. Liang has already arrived.” Very good, the current Cheng Xiao can only be described in one word, that is, she is completely different from the past. In just one month, Cheng Xiao’s changes are amazing. If it were in the past, facing Liang Qian’s teasing, Cheng Xiao would at most blush and probably wouldn’t even be able to say a word of explanation. But now Cheng Xiao is able to fight back. Sure enough, it was just as Lu Yiming said. Starting a business is the best way to train people. Although the establishment of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. was entirely under Lu Yiming’s decision. However, as an executor, Cheng Xiao also received sufficient training. Moreover, Cheng Xiao’s progress has exceeded Lu Yiming’s expectations. Sure enough, if he hadn’t trapped Cheng Xiao with marriage in his previous life, Cheng Xiao’s upper limit would probably be unimaginable. “Boss Cheng is too impatient. Didn’t he report it to me individually on Monday?” “Mr. Liang, you’ve been on the phone with him every day to report on the progress.” “Hey, there’s nothing I can do. There are too many things that need to be communicated.” Liang Qian’s mouth corners slightly raised. This stinky little brother, after throwing the task to me, really became a hands off boss. I have been busy like a top recently. Although Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. has been established and has many technical engineers, it is obviously not enough to employ all of them as new graduates. In order to speed up the progress of product development. Liang Qian eventually extended her claws to friendly competitors. Recruit people! For Liang Qian, this is her strong point. Not to mention that the treatment at Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology is already good. That was Liang Qian’s method alone. How could those straight IT men escape from Liang Qian’s clutches? Liang Qian managed to poach senior executives from the development departments of two well known friendly companies and brought them to Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology. This move made competitors extremely angry. He even called Cheng Xiao directly. What he said was very unpleasant. In the end, Cheng Xiao took on everything. Of course, in order for the company to develop rapidly. Cheng Xiao was naturally very cooperative. However, both of them knew in their hearts that the other party was obviously interested in Lu Yiming. These two can definitely be seen as “rivals in love”. But we have to be together every day. Sometimes they even compete secretly. Of course, they were just some harmless little skirmishes. They clearly recognize each other’s abilities, yet they continue to compete. This is really a strange relationship. “Same, I have a lot of things to communicate here. I need to give an explanation for the people that Mr. Liang poached. Mr. Liang, remember to inform me in advance next time so that I can be prepared.” “Okay, I’ll let you know as soon as possible next time.” Dear department managers: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, this scene seems to have become commonplace. It is said that the two CEOs may not be in harmony with each other on the surface, but once they face difficult problems in the company, they can work together without reservation. As for the relationship between these two… It’s really too strange. This… Unless you are blind, you will not say such insincere words. Chapter 156 What kind of magical combination is this? It finally came out after much anticipation. “bite.” Just when Cheng Xiao and Liang Qian were arguing. The elevator chime rang. “Here?!” At this moment, countless people opened their eyes wide, all of them like curious babies. Who are these two beautiful female CEOs waiting for? Under the enthusiastic gaze of the crowd, the elevator door opened. The next moment. “hiss…” Everyone: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Mr. Liang, Mr. Cheng, I just went to Hanhai Technology to discuss cooperation.” Xiao Wang from the technical department was confused. What was going on? The two CEOs came to greet us personally?! Is it better to get out of the elevator by yourself or not? This scene is really scary. Xiao Wang felt his legs go weak. At this moment, everyone was disappointed. Their expectations were at their highest, but the result was a mistake. “knew.” Cheng Xiao nodded, and Xiao Wang carefully walked around the crowd. So scary, so socially destructive. Fortunately, I didn’t slack off. Just when everyone was speechless. The elevator door opened again. This time, the one who appeared in front of everyone was very elegant… “This aura, this should be our big boss behind the scenes, right?” “Look, Mr. Liang and Mr. Cheng seem to have moved.” “He has a lot of aura, but unfortunately, he’s a bit old.” “He must have been a handsome guy when he was young.” “Shh, keep your voice down. If the manager hears you, he will make things difficult for you.” Wait, you’re not that old? It seems… “Mr. Zhuang, I didn’t expect you to be here first.” “Haha, I can’t wait. After receiving the invitation, I put down everything I was doing.” The person who came was none other than Zhuang Sheng. The last inspection trip to Hong Kong went very smoothly. Many bigwigs have signed strategic cooperation agreements with various sectors in Shanghai. Some invested directly. Of course, the most attention is still on domestic real estate projects. The only strange thing is that it is Mr. Zhuang who is most interested in investing in the mainland. This inspection trip to the mainland did not result in any investment. This is really strange. Even some bigwigs in Hong Kong were wondering what Zhuang Sheng was thinking. But just yesterday, Zhuang Sheng suddenly flew directly to Shanghai. It was not in the original itinerary at all. This news made countless people look inquiringly. But unexpectedly, Zhuang Sheng was the first to arrive. The guests came to the door on their own before the host arrived. “Mr. Zhuang, I’m really sorry. Mr. Lu…” “It’s okay. I arrived early, so this can be considered a surprise attack.” Zhuang Sheng didn’t mind at all. Instead, he waved his hand with an indifferent expression on his face. “Manager Zhang, show Mr. Zhuang around.” “good.” Zhuang Sheng’s early arrival did disrupt the rhythm, but this kind of small scene is not difficult for Cheng Xiao now. Instruct Manager Zhang to accompany the reception and introduce the basic situation of the company. Cheng Xiao handled the situation quite well. As for the people from Huaxia Longteng Network Technology, they were slightly disappointed. I originally thought I had gotten a glimpse of the true face of Mount Lu, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be another misunderstanding. But this old man has a very strong aura. You can tell at first glance that he is a big boss. But there seems to be no such person in the domestic Internet industry? “Hiss… I know who he is.” Just as everyone was guessing the identity of this old man. One of them exclaimed softly. “Who is it?” “You know?” “Tell me quickly.” “Hurry up and speak.” Even the department manager had a gossipy look on his face. “It’s Mr. Zhuang from Xiangjiang, Xiangjiang.” “Um?” Zhuang Sheng is a household name in Hong Kong. The only media mogul. But in the mainland, its fame is much weaker. After all, information technology is not very developed nowadays. Ordinary people don’t have time to gossip about Hong Kong’s legendary bosses. As for the person who recognized Zhuang Sheng, he has been particularly fond of Hong Kong TV dramas since he was a child. You know, most of the TV dramas shot in Hong Kong are produced by TVB. Naturally, I became interested in wireless television. And Zhuang Sheng, the media tycoon, naturally recognized him. “He is Zhuang Sheng?” “A media tycoon from Hong Kong?” “The founder of TVB?” “That’s a big shot.” “A truly wealthy man.” “I didn’t expect it to be this person.” Zhuang Sheng’s recognition did cause quite a stir. Everyone was also shocked. I didn’t expect that my company actually has overseas connections. It seems that choosing Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is definitely the right choice. And just at this moment. The elevator beep sounded again. “hiss…” “No.” “Is this an idol drama?!” Feeling dizzy. Employees of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology said they were really about to faint. Whose boss can be so handsome? This combination of handsome men and beautiful women is so eye catching. Oh my god, what kind of magical combination is this? This is so delicious. The elevator door opened. Cheng Xiao and Liang Qian looked at each other at the same time. It’s him! It’s her! Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong took the same elevator. Yes. The two came together. The two women who had just been fighting each other put on serious expressions at the same time. Cheng Xiao: It is indeed Su Rongrong. Unfortunately, I am not worthy of standing beside Lu Yiming now. Perhaps only when I become successful can I be like Su Rongrong, without any scruples. Liang Qian: Humph, you naughty brother, you are busy running around while you are so happy with a beautiful woman by your side, aren’t you? As for Lu Yiming. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Hey, what does this mean? Why does it suddenly feel a bit awkward? And for the employees of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. It’s really such a blessing. The top executives of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology all have such divine looks. Su Rongrong, Cheng Xiao, and Liang Qian are naturally needless to say, each of them has their own merits and is stunningly beautiful. But no one expected that the legendary big boss would be so handsome, young and rich. The moment he walked out of the elevator, didn’t he look like a handsome young man? How does that poem describe it? The man on the street is as beautiful as jade, and the young man is unparalleled in the world. I originally thought the poem was too exaggerated. Today I finally realized that this description is very appropriate. “Mr. Lu.” “Hello, Mr. Lu!” There is no need for unified rehearsal. At this moment, the excitement shown by the employees is completely from the heart. Su Rongrong: Has this company been given a shot of chicken blood? Why does it feel like it’s not an Internet technology company, but more like a pyramid scheme? “Mr. Lu, Mr. Zhuang has arrived. He has just arranged a tour of the company and should be resting in the conference room now.” “Okay, thank you for your hard work.” “Boss Lu, do you want to arrange for Boss Su to visit?” “No need. On the way here just now, Mr. Lu has already given me a brief introduction to the company.” Su Rongrong was just speaking the truth, but to Liang Qian and Cheng Xiao, her words had a different meaning. Is this a way to show off their close relationship? Chapter 157 Why don’t you try the beauty trap? “Lu Sheng, you have once again exceeded my expectations.” Zhuang Sheng had a look of emotion on his face. He had just visited Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology accompanied by staff. I have to say, very professional. Zhuang Sheng never imagined that he could develop the company to this point in such a short time. “If I hadn’t known this in advance, it would have been hard to imagine that Huaxia Longteng Network Technology was a newly established company.” “You’re too polite, Mr. Zhuang. All this is the result of Cheng Xiao and Liang Qian’s hard work.” Lu Yiming was smiling. Cheng Xiao and Liang Qian’s performance also exceeded his expectations. “Haha, you are worthy of being Lu Sheng. My confidante is so capable. I envy her.” this… A confidante?! People had different expressions on their faces regarding Zhuang Sheng’s evaluation. Cheng Xiao blushed slightly, not knowing how to answer. Liang Qian’s expression looked as if it should be like this. As for Su Rongrong, her expression remained unchanged, but there was a hint of intrigue in her eyes. What a beautiful picture of all living beings. “Stop joking, Zhuang Sheng.” “This is no joke. If I could, I would poach him.” Zhuang Sheng has seen many beauties in his life, but those who are both beautiful and capable are rare. Unexpectedly, Lu Yiming encountered them all. “Zhuang Sheng, let’s get back to the point. You have already seen the development of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology and our cooperation.” Poaching people right in front of you? Lu Yiming naturally didn’t want to. Just change the subject. As for Zhuang Sheng, he seemed to sense the problem in his words, so he just laughed and didn’t mention it again. But in the eyes of Cheng Xiao and Liang Qian, Lu Yiming was protecting himself. Sweetness in the heart. As for Su Rongrong. Haha, he is quite good at attracting bees and butterflies, but he still looks the same. “Of course, after I went back, I also studied Lu Sheng’s plan carefully. To be honest, I was a little worried before I saw the entity, but now there is no problem at all.” Zhuang Sheng knew very well that this was indeed a rare opportunity for him. Why didn’t Zhuang Sheng make up his mind to invest during the last inspection? It’s not that there aren’t suitable projects. But this is all the money Zhuang Sheng has, so if he wants to invest, he has to invest in the most promising projects. Although Mr. Zhuang has a large family and a great business, he cannot easily take out liquid funds. This is the case for most wealthy people. Net worth is net worth, and cannot be equated with money. And Zhuang Sheng was just waiting, waiting for the result from Lu Yiming. Until this moment, Zhuang Sheng finally felt relieved that Lu Yiming did not let him down. “Thank you for your trust, Mr. Zhuang.” “Haha, personal relationships are personal relationships, and business is business. Lu Sheng, we still have to sign the gambling agreement.” “certainly.” The gambling agreement was proposed by Su Rongrong. For Zhuang Sheng, this betting agreement completely solved his worries. After all, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is essentially an Internet technology company. What is the biggest foundation of this type of company? It’s the user. Only when they have accumulated enough users can such companies have broader prospects. Zhuang Sheng and Su Rongrong understood this very well. The bet agreement came into being precisely because of this. After all, similar companies will emerge one after another in the next few years. How to occupy the market and users is the key. “Ms. Su, I have no problem here. I can sign a contract with Huaxia Longteng Network Technology at any time. Do you have any questions, Miss Su?” “No.” From the beginning till now, Su Rongrong has always seemed a little silent. It’s not that Su Rongrong has any problems, but that Su Rongrong has reached an agreement with Lu Yiming during this period of time. Yes, Su Rongrong is not like Zhuang Sheng. The two people still need to communicate by phone. Su Rongrong is much more direct. Ever since Lu Yiming came up with the plan last time, Su Rongrong has been studying it for several nights in a row. Su Rongrong had to admit that Lu Yiming was a bastard with good vision. In the future, Internet technology will surely become a new outlet. However, in the past two years, reform and opening up have been deepening, and all attention has been focused on the real economy. As a result, no one is interested in this aspect. But the future of this track is so bright. It was already quite difficult for Lu Yiming to anticipate the opportunity. After determining the future of Internet technology. Su Rongrong had approached Lu Yiming more than once. Well, in front of a project investment with a future, Su Rongrong let go of her reserve. It feels a bit like chasing a dog. As for the purpose. Naturally, one wants to obtain the greatest benefit at the lowest cost. For Su Rongrong, this is understandable. It’s a pity that this time, Lu Yiming remained steadfast and unyielding. No matter how Su Rongrong threatened or tempted him, Lu Yiming would not be fooled. At that time, Su Rongrong even put forward a hypothesis. Gaoyuan Capital represented by the Su family can directly invest 500 million yuan to acquire 41% of the shares of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. This also means that Su Rongrong’s ambition is to kick Zhuang Sheng out. I have to say that Su Rongrong has a sharp eye. In the investment industry, personal relationships are personal relationships and projects are projects. A good investor will not bring personal emotions into work. Lu Yiming could understand this. However, Su Rongrong has too big an appetite. 41% of the shares may not seem to represent a majority, but Gaoyuan Capital can still obtain a veto power. For Lu Yiming, this was something beyond his control. Lu Yiming will immediately curb any unfavorable factors for Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. Even when facing Su Rongrong, this is no exception. Therefore, Lu Yiming explicitly rejected Su Rongrong. Therefore, the two sides staged an extreme tug of war ‘friendly match’. All I can say is that during this period, the two of them came into contact quite frequently. In the end, Lu Yiming won. Although Su Rongrong can give more investment. However, Zhuang Sheng’s connections and overseas relationships are something the Su family does not have. This aspect is indispensable if Huaxia Longteng Network Technology wants to develop thoroughly. When the software meets the standards, the hardware must cooperate. Even Su Rongrong had to admit this. In the end, Su Rongrong gave in. The investor is unique in achieving this. This bastard, can’t he be a little more flexible? Su Rongrong was angry. Every time when it comes to the most critical core, the bastard never retreats. Lu Yiming: That’s because you are too rigid. Why don’t you try the honey trap? If you don’t try it, how do you know if it will work? Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Since you have no objections, Cheng Xiao, prepare the contract.” “good.” What Zhuang Sheng admired most was this point of Lu Yiming: he was not at all slow and decisive. China Longteng Network Technology has a promising future. Chapter 158: A man’s mouth is a lie “Don’t you want to see the contract?” Su Rongrong signed her name on the contract that Cheng Xiao brought to her without even thinking about it. This surprised Lu Yiming a little. Logically speaking, given Su Rongrong’s personality, she would be extremely cautious. Why is it so satisfying this time? “We’ve checked the contract before, and you won’t give me a surprise. Besides, if you really cheat me, hehe…” There is no need to say more after that. If Lu Yiming really dared to cheat Su Rongrong, his end would be very miserable. Lu Yiming shrugged his shoulders. As expected, he was eating himself to death. Zhuang Sheng, on the other hand, had been carefully examining every clause in the contract, but after hearing what Su Rongrong said, he felt too embarrassed to continue. Well, I came here to sign a contract, why do I feel like I’m being force fed a mouthful of dog food? Zhuang Sheng said that if he had known this would happen, he should have brought the new little star with him. Although she is not as beautiful as the woman next to Lu Yiming, at least she has some confidence. It’s also good to increase momentum. Cheng Xiao looked away, indicating that she couldn’t hear. Liang Qian on the side curled her lips. The one who laughs last laughs the most beautifully. Besides, didn’t the stinky little brother fail? It remains to be seen who will win. “Okay, since there is no problem with the contract, then I wish us a happy cooperation.” Zhuang Sheng took out the signature pen he had always treasured and signed his name on the contract. “Nice pen.” “Haha, Lu Sheng has good taste. This pen brings back so many memories for me.” Zhuang Sheng’s signature pen is indeed a famous brand. However, in this day and age, the style seems a bit outdated. But for Zhuang Sheng, this signature pen has extraordinary significance. It was given to Zhuang Sheng by his father when Zhuang Sheng signed his first big contract. It was this pen that accompanied Zhuang Sheng in his business ventures and helped him accumulate his current wealth. It can be said that this pen is Zhuang Sheng’s most precious personal belongings. Whenever I have free time on weekdays, I always take the time to wipe it carefully. Everyone also listened to an episode at that time. Perhaps Lu Yiming just made a casual compliment. However, the speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. The looks of Cheng Xiao and Liang Qian changed instantly. Cheng Xiao stared at the pen in Zhuang Sheng’s hand, thinking about something. As for Liang Qian, it seemed that she had already started to think about it. Only Su Rongrong just glanced at him without saying anything, and no one knew what she was thinking. A minute later, at Cheng Xiao’s instruction, the staff brought five glasses of champagne. This is also an important part of the contract. From this moment on, the interests of Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong and Zhuang Sheng are closely tied together. “We are preparing a press conference soon. We need a voice to send out our strongest voice to the domestic Internet technology field.” “Haha, Lu Sheng is always unexpected.” Zhuang Sheng was stunned at first. Logically speaking, before launching its flagship product, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology should keep a low profile. But Lu Yiming did the opposite. Tell everyone in this field that I am here, China Longteng Network Technology is here. Just ask them, are they ready to “fight”? ! “Zhuang Sheng, in this era, regional differences are no longer important. Since a new pattern has been formed, we naturally have to be the first to create it.” “Okay, I like Lu Sheng’s domineering attitude.” Zhuang Sheng gave Lu Yiming a thumbs up. This is the kind of drive that young people need, and this is one of the reasons why Zhuang Sheng is optimistic about Lu Yiming. There is a ruthlessness in Lu Yiming, and Zhuang Sheng admires him very much, just like himself in the past. In Hong Kong, he created an era of his own. I believe Lu Yiming can do it too. Investing in Lu Yiming may be the most correct decision I have made. As for Su Rongrong, she gave Lu Yiming a charming roll of the eyes. This bastard, he just spoke so passionately. But what did you say when you were arguing with me about the contract before? They kept saying that the Su family was not yet suitable to set foot in the Magic City. Since they have chosen Gaoyuan Capital, there is no need for the Su family to show up. Now, everything I said before has been overturned. Sure enough, men’s words are lies. This bastard only knows how to fool himself. Su Rongrong snorted in her heart, knowing that she had fallen into Lu Yiming’s trap again. If I tell this to others, I’m afraid no one will believe it. After all, Su Rongrong is very popular now. How long has it been since he joined Gaoyuan Capital? He has created investment miracles one after another. The PHS business that the investment was made in not only took off without warning, but also brought considerable profits to Gaoyuan Capital in the first year of investment. What happened next was even more outrageous. Organized a delegation to Hong Kong. You know, how many investment companies want to attract foreign capital into the domestic capital market. Unfortunately, they do not have such ability and background. What seemed difficult to everyone else was accomplished easily by Su Rongrong. This also made Su Rongrong completely famous in the investment circle. The title of investment queen has long been passed to Su Rongrong. Not only that, Su Rongrong can now thrive just by relying on her fame. Even some top investment banks have extended olive branches to Su Rongrong. This time, what the top investment bank was interested in was not Su Rongrong’s identity as the eldest daughter of the Su family. It’s Su Rongrong’s own strength and ability. It is possible to gain unanimous recognition from the industry in such a short period of time. Even Su Yunchang had never imagined such a result. Fortunately, I chose to support my daughter at that time, otherwise, wouldn’t the Su family have lost a great general for nothing? “I won’t be attending the press conference. Cheng Xiao, you take my place.” “this…” Cheng Xiao never thought that Lu Yiming would give up such a glorious moment to her? What is this operation? “Mr. Lu, you are the helmsman of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology.” “I wear many hats, and it’s more interesting behind the scenes than on the stage.” Lu Yiming looked out the floor to ceiling window. Blue sky and white clouds. But in fact, while Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology is flexing its muscles, it will also be suppressed by other companies in the field. Although the domestic market is large, the competition is extremely fierce. New companies emerge every day, and similarly, countless companies go bankrupt. The sudden emergence of the dark horse Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology will naturally cause an earthquake in the industry. Lu Yiming wanted to see who would be the first to jump out. This is also the benefit of being behind the scenes. “Haha, I was originally worried that Lu Sheng would be blinded by the temporary victory, but now it seems that my worry is completely unnecessary.” “Hmph, he is sober.” Lu Yiming’s attitude naturally received the support of Zhuang Sheng and Su Rongrong. To be honest, the current Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology has the support of two big players, Zhuang Sheng and Gaoyuan Capital, which is enough. As for Lu Yiming, he is the ultimate trump card. Chapter 159 Rumors 【Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd. officially changed its name to Huaxia Longteng Network Technology Co., Ltd.】 The news that Hua Xia Long Teng Network Technology Co., Ltd. received 200 million yuan in angel round investments from Gaoyuan Capital and Xiangjiang Wireless Group instantly set off a nationwide sensation. At the end of 1995, there were hundreds of millions of dollars in funds, a figure that most people could never imagine in their lifetime. Not to mention, the angel round received 400 million in investment. Who exactly is this Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology? In this era, a small goal has not yet become popular. In this day and age, countless new companies are still struggling to raise millions of dollars in financing. Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology fulfilled their lifelong dream from the very beginning. The industry was in uproar. What is even more shocking is the appearance of two beautiful female presidents. Cheng Xiao, Chief Operating Officer of Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology, and Su Rongrong, Senior Vice President of Gaoyuan Capital. As soon as these two appeared, they instantly overshadowed the Hong Kong media tycoon Zhuang Sheng. It turns out that no matter what era, the saying “beauty is justice” will never go out of date. Zhuang Sheng also smiled bitterly. Perhaps he never thought that he would end up like this today. Of course, as Cheng Xiao and Su Rongrong become more and more famous, groundless speculation will also become rampant. The malicious speculation will not stop. Jealousy will always be a psychological distortion for some people. “Okay, stop watching. You’re just mad at yourself.” The latest issues of several professional magazines, instead of discussing the future of Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology, actually discussed how Cheng Xiao rose to the top. Although the whole article is full of uncertain words such as assumptions, maybe, and if. But the general direction is very clear. Cheng Xiao, the operations director of Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology, must have reached his current high position through some unspeakable efforts. As for what was paid. Even a fool can see that. How can such a beautiful girl get to the top? “That’s nonsense.” Liang Qian slammed the magazine down on the desk. She seemed even more angry than Cheng Xiao. “What a shitty professional industry magazine. It’s full of gossip. And it claims to be professional.” This magazine is a professional journal in the industry and usually publishes some professional industry articles. Of course, in order to attract traffic, articles related to the gaming industry will also be published. After all, traffic is needed. However, this is the first time that a gossip article has appeared. This made Liang Qian extremely skeptical about its professionalism. Although it is fabricated, it is useful for those who are not familiar with Cheng Xiao and Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. The article is highly credible. After all, Cheng Xiao is so beautiful. Also, how did a college student who had just graduated for less than a year become the chief operating officer of Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology? In less than a year, he accomplished a level that others could never achieve in their entire lives. Is this possible without an exchange of interests? For a while, rumors about Cheng Xiao were overwhelming, even surpassing those about some first line stars. “It’s ridiculous. When I came to work this morning, there were reporters guarding the entrance to the business building.” Liang Qian sneered and said, “We are a technology company, not an entertainment company. Don’t these reporters have anything to do after eating?” “Mr. Cheng, Mr. Liang, I just received a message from the magazine, hoping to make an appointment to interview Mr. Cheng.” “Isn’t that chaotic enough? Tell them that Mr. Cheng doesn’t accept non professional interviews.” Before Cheng Xiao even opened her mouth, Liang Qian had already rejected her offer. It can be seen that Liang Qian really wants to protect Cheng Xiao. As a woman herself, Liang Qian naturally knew how much harm such rumors could cause to women. Although Cheng Xiao appears calm on the surface, she is actually extremely sad in her heart. “I’m fine, thank you.” “If it really doesn’t work, just take some time off. When the heat subsides, everything will be fine.” Liang Qian patted Cheng Xiao’s shoulder gently. Rumors are the most hurtful things, and false accusations are hard to guard against. Rumors can melt metal. Once the people believe this view, it will be very difficult to change their mind. Besides, how old is Cheng Xiao now? It’s really hard for her to bear everything that she shouldn’t have to bear at her age. “I’m really fine, I just feel weird.” “What’s the meaning?” this… A little too calm. Liang Qian said that if this happened to her, she would probably become depressed. After all, this is just some of what is written in the magazine. God knows what ordinary readers will say about this matter behind the scenes? He has such a murderous heart! “Su Rongrong and I are classmates and we attended the press conference at the same time. I am the operations director of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology, and Su Rongrong is the senior vice president of Gaoyuan Capital, which is higher than me. However, Su Rongrong was not mentioned in the entire report. Is this realistic?” “What do you mean? Could it be that…” Could it be that Cheng Xiao suspected that Su Rongrong was behind all this? From love to hate? Or maybe this is Su Rongrong’s way of achieving her ulterior motive? For a moment, Liang Qian imagined a lot of things. Because of Lu Yiming, the two women are jealous of each other? ! Cheng Xiao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Uh, what’s going on in this mind? It’s quite suitable to be a screenwriter. It’s all a mess. “That’s not what I meant. Su Rongrong naturally has no reason to harm me. However, the development of the matter is a bit strange. Su Rongrong and I both appeared on the show, and the position of the senior vice president is obviously higher than that of the operating president, but why is the media’s discussion all directed at me?” “Maybe they think Su Rongrong is not as pretty as you?” “Do you believe this yourself?” “No.” Well, in terms of appearance, there is really no need to compare the two women. All I can say is that each has its own merits. However, Cheng Xiao’s suspicion is reasonable. Why are they all staring at Cheng Xiao? “I doubt it’s directed at me.” “hiss…” Liang Qian also thought of a possibility at this moment and took a breath of cold air. “Do you think they are coming for the company?” “It’s a possibility.” What is the purpose of exposing these false information and arousing public opinion? I’m afraid it won’t be easy. “Cheng Xiao is right.” Just as the two women were thinking, a familiar voice was heard. “Mr. Lu.” “Yiming?” Lu Yiming’s sudden appearance surprised the two women. “I heard your analysis just now.” Cheng Xiao’s analysis was correct. This incident was aimed at Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. As Lu Yiming expected, someone really couldn’t sit still. However, what Lu Yiming did not expect was that the other party actually used these shameful means. It is obviously an Internet technology company. Instead of winning by technology, why do they resort to such dirty tricks? Such an opponent even made Lu Yiming sneer at him. Is there no price to pay for spreading rumors? Lu Yiming brought all the legal department of Lu Group here today. It’s obvious that he is here to support Cheng Xiao. Chapter 160: Pursue the End “It’s not a decent method.” Lu Yiming snorted coldly. Spreading rumors about Cheng Xiao was tantamount to spreading rumors about Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. Just imagine, if ordinary people believe that the executives of Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology are nepotism, then what future does such a company have? All I can say is that those who spread rumors are not only insidious, but they also break the law. Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology is naturally not afraid of such an open attack, but such means are really disgusting. “Boss Lu, I’m fine. There’s no need to make such a fuss.” In Cheng Xiao’s opinion, there is no precedent for dealing with such rumors in China. The cost of spreading rumors is too low, which is why these people resort to such despicable means. Of course, from another perspective. They are afraid. The sudden rise of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology caught countless people off guard. “I’ll take care of this matter, and you can focus on the daily management. Also, what’s the status of our software?” “The software has reached the final testing stage. We have started collecting software logos and will be able to produce samples soon.” “Speed up the process, maybe it will come in handy this time.” It was impossible for Lu Yiming to let Cheng Xiao be slandered by rumors. If we ignore this time, Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology can’t even protect its own executives, so what future does it have? Besides, considering the status of Cheng Xiao in Lu Yiming’s heart, he naturally cannot let Cheng Xiao be bullied by others. Otherwise, would Lu Yiming still be able to live as a human being? At this moment, Lu Yiming’s cell phone rang. Su Rongrong’s phone number? Lu Yiming was a little stunned. Su Rongrong called him at this point in time? Could it be that… Lu Yiming knew very well that Gaoyuan Capital, as an investor, must hope that Huaxia Longteng Network Technology could develop in an orderly manner. In response to such emergencies, Gaoyuan Capital must hope to make a big deal out of a small matter. After all, for investors, making money is the top priority. Naturally, we don’t want Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology to use its limited energy to deal with these rumors. Maybe Su Rongrong is calling me now just because… If he guessed it right, what should Lu Yiming do? “Mr. Lu, your phone number.” Lu Yiming stared at the phone in a daze. Liang Qian and Cheng Xiao looked at each other. Although they didn’t know why Lu Yiming didn’t answer the call, they seemed to have guessed a possibility. “Wait a moment.” In the end, Lu Yiming made up his mind. Even if this matter involves Su Rongrong, I cannot compromise. Lu Yiming took his cell phone and walked out of the office. “Congratulations.” Liang Qian suddenly spoke. “What?” “Didn’t you guess?” “I…” Yes, it’s not that I didn’t guess Lu Yiming’s decision, but I couldn’t believe it. Is Lu Yiming really willing to reject Su Rongrong’s proposal for his own sake? this… “Don’t worry, this is the Lu Yiming I’m familiar with.” Liang Qian seemed to have guessed it right. But how nice it would be if I were the protagonist of this incident? My naughty brother, sister also wants your protection. Liang Qian felt really jealous. “If it were you, Mr. Lu would definitely do the same.” “ha…” At this time, Lu Yiming pressed the answer button. “It’s me.” “What’s up?” “No, you say.” “I’ve noticed Cheng Xiao’s situation.” “so?” “Do you need legal assistance?” “Um?” “Surprised?” “I thought you would tell me to put the overall situation first.” Lu Yiming didn’t expect that Su Rongrong didn’t mention the possible impact at all, but directly asked him whether he needed legal aid . In any case, this is not the kind of help that investors should provide. “Lu Yiming, no matter what, Cheng Xiao is also my classmate. I don’t want to see Cheng Xiao being slandered like this.” Su Rongrong did struggle before making this call. The reason for struggling is not considering the gains and losses of investment. But the question is whether there is such a relationship between Cheng Xiao and Lu Yiming. This is what Su Rongrong is concerned about. What if it’s really a love story? If I rashly get involved in this, wouldn’t I become a laughing stock? But in the end, Su Rongrong still chose to believe Cheng Xiao. Yes, Cheng Xiao’s character is worthy of Su Rongrong’s trust. Su Rongrong saw everything Cheng Xiao went through during her four years in college. Su Rongrong didn’t believe that Cheng Xiao would sell herself out for a better material life. If Cheng Xiao was willing to do this, she would have accepted the help of those boys from the very beginning. Of course, we must also highlight the key points here. Su Rongrong believes in Cheng Xiao’s character, but not Lu Yiming’s. This bastard, haha… “Don’t worry, I can handle it.” “you?” “Don’t believe me?” “Lu Yiming, if I’m not mistaken, you rely on the Lu Group’s legal department and want to start with the judiciary.” As expected of Su Rongrong, she had predicted all of Lu Yiming’s plans. “But I have to remind you that the Lu Group’s Justice Department naturally has no problem with corporate law, but when it comes to these aspects…” “Do you have any good suggestions? Could it be that Gaoyuan Capital’s legal department is good at this?” Okay, Lu Yiming admitted that what Su Rongrong said made sense. The Lu Group’s legal department may not be competent in interpreting laws and regulations. “Of course not.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… So I’ve been talking for so long, am I just kidding myself? “But don’t forget, my family owns a law firm.” Lu Yiming: (○´ ・ д ・ )ノ Very good, breathing heavily when speaking. Well, I forgot that the Su family has its own power in all walks of life. Of course, there is also the judicial sector, and it is a well known law firm in the industry. “Help me get in touch.” “Any time.” “Thank you.” “No need. I’m not doing this for you. Also, I’ll send you the bill for the lawyer’s fees.” After saying that, Su Rongrong hung up the phone. “Hard mouthed but soft hearted.” Lu Yiming complained into his phone. Back in the office, Cheng Xiao and Liang Qian all looked at Lu Yiming. “What’s that look in your eyes?” “Tell me, do investors want to avoid getting involved?” “Lu Yiming, if that’s the case, we can actually ignore the rumors.” Just think of it as being bitten by a mad dog. “Okay, the Su family’s lawyer will be here soon. You guys should receive him. As a rule, we must investigate this matter to the end.” “Hiss… We investors can deal with it.” Liang Qian was also surprised, but compared to this, Liang Qian liked Su Rongrong’s way of handling the situation even more. Liang Qian is not familiar with Su Rongrong, but now it seems that Su Rongrong’s character has been recognized by Liang Qian. An hour later, the top lawyer from Junwei Law Firm arrived at the scene and expressed full confidence after understanding the situation. Chapter 161 Lawyer’s Letter and Subpoena “Editor in chief, it’s a hit. The sales of this issue have exploded.” I never dreamed that the sales of this issue of the weekly magazine would be several times higher than the previous ones. this… Why publish a professional weekly? Why not just write gossip? I never thought that Cheng Xiao, an executive of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology, would actually be the traffic password. “As a beauty, she naturally attracts a lot of attention. Besides, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is currently at the center of public attention.” Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is very mysterious. It took only about a month from registration to obtaining huge angel round financing. Even decent software has not been developed yet. This situation is completely unique in the circle of Internet technology. The more mysterious it is, the more it can arouse people’s curiosity. Besides, the executives of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology are indeed rare beauties, so how can they not arouse people’s fantasies? Originally, people had different opinions on this malicious speculation article. But this article was decided by the editor in chief himself, and no one dared to say anything more. Judging from the current results, it has definitely exceeded expectations. “Haha, let’s have dinner tonight, I’ll pay for it.” Editor in Chief Yao was in a good mood. I was originally worried about whether this article would have a negative impact on the magazine. After all, I was entrusted by someone to write this article. Editor in Chief Yao also considered it for a long time. After all, it is a well known magazine in the industry. Although the recent sales volume is not ideal, once it sets a precedent, I am afraid… The other party gave Editor in Chief Yao reassurance. After all, in the country, such articles will not be investigated. So what if it involves privacy? Everything is speculation, and the tone of the article is nothing more than hypothetical. In the end, everything can be pushed cleanly. Moreover, the mastermind behind the scenes has also analyzed that Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is now at its peak. The financial backers behind the scenes do not want such an accident to happen to Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology. Therefore, they will just suppress the matter, making a big thing small and a small thing nothing. Editor in Chief Yao finally chose to believe it. And now, the booming sales have made Editor in Chief Yao overjoyed. But at this moment. “Editor in chief, something happened.” “What are you rushing for?” Editor in Chief Yao was very unhappy. When you were in a good mood, didn’t you have any foresight? Now is my highlight moment. “No, we received a lawyer’s letter.” “What?” “Law…lawyer’s letter.” “Where did it come from?” “Regal Law Firm.” This… The originally excited editors were now silent. All eyes turned to Editor in Chief Yao. Junwei Law Firm is a very famous law firm. It is a well recognized large firm in the industry, and Junwei’s lawyers have connections far and wide. How did this… provoke them? “Don’t worry, it’s just a lawyer’s letter. Let’s not panic.” Having said that, Chief Editor Yao’s expression looked very unhappy. It shouldn’t be. This is inconsistent with previous analysis. We have clearly analyzed it and Huaxia Longteng Network Technology will not take any action. Why is it Regal? “Editor in chief.” “What happened again?” “It’s a court summons!” “impossible.” Editor in Chief Yao was completely dumbfounded. He had just received a lawyer’s letter, so how come he suddenly received a court summons? When did our judiciary become so proactive? “Editor in chief, if it is really the Junwei Law Firm, it is really possible.” As I just said, each of the majestic laws has enormous power. “Hey, you guys go out first, I’ll make a phone call.” Editor in Chief Yao was obviously flustered and seemed to have dialed a number. “Old Yao, congratulations, this issue of the weekly magazine must have sold well.” As soon as the call was connected, congratulations were heard from the other side. “What are you congratulating me for? Something has happened. Didn’t you tell me that Huaxia Longteng Network Technology would not pursue this article? They have already received a lawyer’s letter and a court summons.” Although Chief Editor Yao knows a lot of people, I’m afraid these people won’t help at this critical juncture. Don’t say there isn’t enough benefit. Even if Editor in Chief Yao is willing to spend money to avoid disaster, the other party may not dare to help this time. Not everyone can afford to go against Junwei Law Firm. Besides, it’s not worth it for Editor in Chief Yao. “this…” The person on the other end of the phone obviously didn’t realize the seriousness of this problem. “Maybe it’s just to scare you.” “It’s stamped with the court seal. How could it be just to scare us?” “Old Yao, don’t worry. The loopholes in the article are not big. Even if you sue, you may not win. Besides, there is no precedent in China. The final outcome is still unknown.” “This is not a matter of winning or losing. Once we go to court, the future of our magazine will be over.” It is inevitable that a magazine with problems will suffer a sharp drop in sales. If an untrue article is published, the outcome may be… Editor in Chief Yao cannot afford this kind of loss. “You have to think of a solution.” “Old Yao, what do you mean? I just provided an article. Whether to use it or not is entirely up to you. In the end, it has little to do with me.” “What do you mean?” Demolish the bridge after crossing it. After all, we have been friends for several years and we keep in touch quite often. You have been working hard to promote the other company’s new products, but in the blink of an eye, you have sold yourself out? Editor in Chief Yao really couldn’t believe that the other party could actually say such a thing. “Old Yao, let’s be honest. I did give you the article, but you have the final say on whether to accept it or publish it. Besides, the sales of this issue of your magazine are here. You made money, and I didn’t ask you for a share of it. Now that something has happened, you come to me. Isn’t that a bit unfair?” “I…” “Okay, I have a meeting soon, let’s talk next time.” After saying that, the other party hung up the phone. Editor in Chief Yao looked at the busy tone on the microphone and felt like crying but had no tears. Bastard, bastard! Editor in Chief Yao, with a depressed look on his face, stayed in the office for the entire afternoon. I thought hard but couldn’t find any solution. Finally, Chief Editor Yao picked up the phone tremblingly and dialed the switchboard of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. Ten minutes later, Chief Editor Yao’s expression became even uglier. No matter how we explain it, Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology has only one thing to say: we will take this matter to court. Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology believes in the country’s laws and regulations. There is no possibility of any reconciliation. “Damn it!” Editor in Chief Yao swept the furnishings on his desk to the floor. The editors outside the door looked at each other in confusion. I just want to ask, will the dinner party tonight continue? Some of them who were more foresighted have already started secretly contacting other magazines to leave themselves a way out. As for Xiangjiang, after receiving Su Rongrong’s call, Zhuang Sheng had a look of amusement on his face. Was he playing this trick on him? Haha, did you get the title of media tycoon for nothing? Chapter 162 Promotion As soon as Zhuang Sheng made a move, he put China Longteng Network Technology on the altar. What? There is no decent software. Don’t worry, Zhuang Sheng just wants to tell everyone how powerful the background of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is. That’s enough. With the Hong Kong media’s hype, China Longteng Network Technology has become a real hot word. “This… is over.” Looking at the newspapers and magazines from Hong Kong, Cheng Xiao and Liang Qian looked at each other in bewilderment. What does it mean to be silent or to make a big splash when you do? I finally got to see it today. “The pressure is on us.” Our friendly forces are so powerful, how can you boast about them? “What did the design department say?” “The software has passed the trial operation, but there is still some small controversy over the choice of LOGO.” “How many options are there?” “Three.” Liang Qian compared the images of the three options and was satisfied with them. The small penguin, the adorable panda, and the Tamron pattern can all be chosen as options, and it is difficult to make a decision for a moment. “Leave it to Mr. Lu.” “That’s what I was thinking too.” The two reached an agreement that the final choice still lies with Lu Yiming. Who makes him the final boss? As for Lu Yiming, he was also shocked after receiving the email. Wow, apart from anything else, this penguin pattern is just too vivid. This thing is not only exactly the same as in the previous life, it is absolutely identical. Could it be that my company has poached an art designer from some big company? However, there seems to be no challenge in following the old path of our predecessors. The Chinese people naturally use their own totems. Lu Yiming finally chose the cute panda as the exclusive logo of the software. Not only that, Lu Yiming also initiated the development team to design an emoticon package software specifically for pandas. Although current image processors cannot keep up with our requirements, basic facial expressions can still be recognized. Pandas are not just silly. In the past, they were Chiyou’s mounts, accompanying him in battles thousands of miles away. It’s time for Huaxia Longteng Network Technology to show its fangs. As for the case of a certain magazine, it soon entered the trial stage. I have to say that Su Rongrong is quick in doing things. Never drag your feet. The magazine tried every possible means to resolve the issue privately, but it did not even meet the person involved. In Lu Yiming’s words, no matter who you are, you have to pay for the mistakes you make. When it comes to taking decisive action, Lu Yiming never hesitates. As for the high compensation proposed by the other party. Lu Yiming didn’t even blink. Are you kidding? Do you look like a poor person? Even if the compensation awarded by the court is far less than the private amount, it is not a problem for Lu Yiming at all. Liang Qian even put forward constructive suggestions. We can take advantage of this favorable situation to vigorously promote the company’s chat software that is about to be launched. This idea coincides with Lu Yiming’s. It would be a waste if we don’t make use of the free publicity and so much preparation in the early stages. Of course, the opinions of the parties involved should still be sought in this matter. After all, Cheng Xiao has been pushed to the forefront. “I don’t have any problems.” Liang Qian had some doubts when she asked Cheng Xiao for her opinion. After all, Cheng Xiao is a girl, and a girl’s reputation is very important. Although the company helped Cheng Xiao explain it clearly. But no one can control the direction of public opinion. If there is a problem in any link, Cheng Xiao will bear greater pressure. What a result. Cheng Xiao didn’t care at all, and was even willing to cooperate with the company’s decision. “Wouldn’t that be too great a sacrifice?” Well, it was Liang Qian who proposed the suggestion herself, but when Cheng Xiao cooperated unconditionally, I was the one who hesitated first. “It’s okay.” “You… Oh, forget it…” This silly girl, who is she doing all this for? Even a fool can see it. Which girl doesn’t cherish her own “feathers”? Liang Qian: You naughty brother, you are such a nuisance. So what if I regard Cheng Xiao as my love rival? Liang Qian felt a little distressed when she saw such a kind girl. I don’t know what good deeds my little brother did in his previous life. A week later, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology began to launch its publicity and promotion. Combined with the public opinion offensive in Hong Kong, the reputation of China Longteng Network Technology once again reached its peak. Changing dating apps. The only online chat tool in China. A historic Internet revolution. Each of these words will be used in the chat software that Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is about to release. This wave of offensive was quite fierce. Not to mention people in the circle. Even ordinary people began to look forward to it. Even Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology has cooperated with major domestic universities. We took the lead in launching a trial version for colleges and universities, and conducted a trial within the local area networks of major universities. The results of the linkage are very good. College students gave this chat software a 99 percent positive rating. And stated that it will be downloaded and used as soon as the official version is released. With this foundation, it would be hard for Panda Chat developed by Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology not to be popular. What’s even more outrageous is that other competitors have questioned the practicality of this chat software. Huaxia Longteng Network Technology has launched another big move. A professional testing report published by a world renowned cybersecurity company became popular in China overnight. The content is plain and simple. After testing, Panda Chat has achieved the most advanced privacy protection in the world. Chat content and data are absolutely safe. As soon as this report came out, domestic competitors completely shut up. this… You know, China’s network is just in its infancy. The products of domestic competitors are either copying others or are in the stage of independent exploration. But Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology is different. Every move he makes is a series of powerful hits. In today’s society, the concept of personal privacy has gradually become popular. What China Longteng Network Technology needs to do is to raise the concept of security to an unprecedented new height. It can even be said that Panda Chat has become a new benchmark for domestic network security. For friendly competitors, this is really exaggerated. And all of this had been designed by Lu Yiming in advance. Everyone can imitate anyone, especially in China, where the ability to imitate has reached its peak. When a new software comes out, it will soon be besieged by copycat versions. But Lu Yiming either doesn’t do it, or he does it to a level that is far beyond the reach of his competitors. Copycat? Haha, you try it. Of course, this is also thanks to the technical support introduced by Zhuang Sheng. For Huaxia Longteng Network Technology, Hong Kong is its window to the outside world. How to make up for the disadvantages on the technical level is what you should consider. Add more! Please give me a five star rating and a reward. Chapter 163 Lu Yao is missing “Mr. Lu, I need to remind you that you are still the head of the investment department of Lu Group.” Early this morning, Li Li appeared in Lu Yiming’s office with a serious face. “Speak human language.” Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “I received news that someone wants to harm you.” “Vice President Xu, right?” “What do you think?” Li Li said unhappily. “So I didn’t cause him any trouble, but he was so impatient.” The corners of Lu Yiming’s mouth curled up. At this time, you still dare to jump around? “Can you find your own reasons?” Li Li rolled her eyes, saying what they meant by “a fly won’t bite an egg without cracks.” Although Xiaolingtong Property is in full swing, the investment department cannot just focus on taking advantage of one thing. How long has this been going on? Apart from the Xiaolingtong business, no new business was developed. Although the employees in the investment department are very busy every day, they will also be criticized if they fail to produce results. It’s not that I haven’t thought about the project, but it was always rejected by Lu Yiming. In Li Li’s opinion, some projects still have great potential. “I know what you want to say, look at this report.” Lu Yiming took out a document from the drawer of his desk and placed it in front of Li Li. “This is?” “You’ll know after you see it.” Li Li opened the file, and her already beautiful eyes widened even further. “You’ve prepared it a long time ago? Why are you taking it out now?” “Auntie, investment requires money, and even a good cook cannot cook without rice.” “Ha, it’s all because of you…” Li Li swallowed the rest of her words halfway through her speech. After all, the news that Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology was founded by Lu Yiming is still kept confidential. After all, most of the funds for the Xiaolingtong project were invested by Lu Yiming into Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. Moreover, it is in the form of repo. Li Li didn’t expect Lu Aijun to be so supportive of her son. In total, more than 100 million yuan has been borrowed. Fortunately, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology obtained angel round investment, otherwise, this matter would have been exposed sooner or later. The company’s top executives are not fools. Everyone can roughly calculate the benefits of the Xiaolingtong project. At this moment, the phone in Lu Yiming’s office suddenly rang. Lu Yiming and Li Li looked at each other. What you say will come true. “Did you guys discuss this?” “hehe…” A call from the president’s office. Since Lu Yiming joined the investment department, he has had absolute autonomy. The President’s Office has an absolute uniqueness and status in the Lu Group. After all, it represents the authority of Lu Aijun to the outside world. But this approach doesn’t work in the investment department. Therefore, since Lu Yiming established the Investment Department, the President’s Office has never interfered in any decision of the Investment Department. The call was so strange that Lu Yiming had to be suspicious. “I am now the vice president of the investment department, what do you think?” “I really don’t know what’s going on?” “I have a lot of things to do, so I don’t have time to play detective games with you.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, it seems that Li Li really doesn’t know the truth. “Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu wants you to come to his office right now.” It’s just a notice, why be so serious? With doubts, Lu Yiming walked into Lu Aijun’s office. “Your sister is missing.” “ah?” The first sentence he said made Lu Yiming completely confused. Lu Yao? ! This name seemed a little unfamiliar to Lu Yiming. In the previous life, the Lu family declined and Lu Aijun became seriously ill, ending his glorious life early. After the Lu family lost this pillar, Zhang Qian took her daughter and left the Lu family. No, strictly speaking, the Lu family had nothing left at that time. The family property is not enough to compensate for the company’s losses. Lu Yao had just graduated at that time. The little girl couldn’t bear such a huge blow at all. When I left, everything was fine. But when I came back, everything in the house had changed. The father who loved her so much is gone, and her mother looks haggard. The warm home we once had is completely gone. The culprit behind all this is his nominal brother, Lu Yiming! Lu Yiming can still remember the look Lu Yao gave him. Hatred. The look of hatred was as if they were lifelong enemies. This is a look that shouldn’t appear on a loved one. This was the first time that Lu Yiming couldn’t raise his head in front of Lu Yao. Finally, Zhang Qian left the country with her daughter. No news. In my previous life, my relationship with Zhang Qian and Lu Yao was very dull. After all, for Lu Yiming when he was a child, the appearance of Zhang Qian was the key reason for his parents’ divorce. The birth of Lu Yao dealt a severe blow to Lu Yiming’s young heart. Lu Yiming has disliked Lu Yao since he was a child. This doll like little girl was like a nightmare to Lu Yiming. There is no way. Lu Aijun believes in raising girls in wealth and boys in poverty. Since childhood, Lu Yao has had everything he wanted. And what about Lu Yiming? Whatever Lu Yao has, he himself cannot have. Lu Yiming had a clear memory that Lu Aijun would always celebrate Lu Yao’s birthday when she was a child with great fanfare, but what about his own? Every birthday I have, I treat myself to a piece of cake. Lu Yiming was actually very envious of those piles of gifts. “Talking to you.” “Lu Yao is already an adult.” “Nonsense, she is your sister.” It can be seen that Lu Aijun is really worried. “Paris is not a bad place to live in. Don’t think too much about it.” Lu Yao has always had whatever he wanted since he was a child, which led to him developing a willful and capricious personality. This is not caused by Lu Aijun’s doting. Now you know it’s urgent? What were you doing so far? “Get ready and go to Paris.” “I have so much to do here.” Lu Yiming curled his lips and went to find Lu Yao himself? It’s my own dad who could come up with this idea. Even if I find her, given their relationship as siblings, it would be strange for Lu Yao to listen to me. “Stinky boy, I’m telling you…” “Stop.” Lu Yiming had a headache. There was no way Lu Yiming didn’t know what Lu Aijun said next. ‘Threat’ yourself. “Don’t let your Aunt Zhang know about this for now, so she doesn’t get anxious.” “ha…” Lu Yiming shrugged without comment. “Where are you going?” Seeing Lu Yiming turning around to leave, Lu Aijun asked hurriedly. “I’m going to help you find your daughter.” “You little brat…” Looking at Lu Yiming’s leaving back, Lu Aijun smiled bitterly. I hope that brat can understand my good intentions. Indeed, Lu Aijun himself knew that he did favor his daughter more. However, compared to Lu Yao, the brat obviously got more. The Lu Group will definitely be handed over to Lu Yiming in the future. As for his daughter, Lu Aijun just hopes that Lu Yao can live a peaceful life, nothing more. After all, my daughter is going to get married. How long can she stay with me? Just pamper her a little. How long can I continue to pamper you? Chapter 164: A Thousand Cups of Wine Without Getting Drunk On the way back, Lu Yiming tried hard to recall what happened in his previous life. It seemed that he had experienced the same thing in his previous life, but Lu Yiming himself was in a state of panic and had a lot of troubles in his previous life. Naturally, he had no energy to pay attention to Lu Yao. What is this? A real life version of The Runaway Princess? It was enough to give Lu Yiming a headache that his father handed this matter over to him. What was Lu Yao’s ending in her previous life? It seems that many years later, Lu Yao showed her talent in the fashion industry. Became the youngest designer for a luxury brand. It’s a pity that Lu Yiming was busy starting his own business at the time and didn’t pay much attention to it. When Lu Yao got married, it seemed that she didn’t invite herself. In her previous life, Lu Yao eventually created a spark with a male model under her. Unfortunately, this marriage did not last long. After the divorce, Lu Yao lived in France with her mother Zhang Qian and had completely cut off contact with Lu Yiming. Even after Lu Yiming made a comeback, the mother and daughter did not come to visit them. Lu Yiming also admired this point very much. The thing that the children of the Lu family lack the least is backbone. “What’s going on?” “Trouble.” Seeing that Lu Yiming looked unhappy, Li Li naturally asked another question. But it’s different from what I imagined. The reason why Lu Yiming is having a headache now is where to find the little princess of the Lu family. Lu Yao’s life can be said to be following an orderly routine. In the eyes of her parents, she is a good girl. Of course, maybe it was hidden too well. In front of Lu Yiming, however, she can completely expose her true nature. The two have had a bad relationship since childhood. Lu Yiming has always felt that Lu Yao was redundant. In addition, Lu Aijun’s attitude of meeting Lu Yao’s every request made Lu Yiming even more unhappy. Although they are three years apart in age, it can be said that the two have been fighting since they were young. Moreover, Lu Yao often has the upper hand. There’s nothing we can do about it, since Lu Yao is the apple of Lu Aijun’s eye. Lu Yao’s grades have always been among the best. It formed a huge contrast with Lu Yiming. After graduating from high school, he was sent to Paris Business School for further studies. Don’t think that Paris Business School is a place that misleads students. On the contrary, Paris Business School is very famous internationally. One quarter of the executives of the Fortune 500 companies come from here. It can be said to be the cradle of cultivating business elites. You can’t get in just by having money. Of course, in his previous life, Lu Yiming appeared to be indifferent on the surface, but he was very envious in his heart. As for Lu Yao living alone abroad, Lu Aijun provided her with the most favorable conditions. A separate luxury apartment, right on the edge of the university town. A butler is available 24 hours a day. There are luxury cars to pick you up and drop you off at school. Lu Yiming had never enjoyed these things at all. The only Ferrari was something Lu Yiming had to beg for. Compared with Lu Yao, the halo of a rich second generation on his head is really pitiful. Under such conditions, he still went missing? ha! “Book me a flight to Paris.” “Paris?” Li Li was confused. This… As far as I can remember, the group has no business dealings in Europe. Could it be that Mr. Lu wanted to expand into the European and American markets? So he asked Mr. Lu to take the lead? However, the group’s products currently do not seem to be competitive in the European and American markets. “Don’t think about it, it’s a private matter.” “Okay, I’ll go now.” Li Li nodded and left the office. As for Lu Yiming, he had a gloomy face. This little girl really knew how to pick the time. Seeing that Huaxia Longteng Network Technology was about to release a new software, it was time to create trouble for itself. “call…” Thinking of this, Lu Yiming became extremely angry. etc! Just as Lu Yiming was about to go home and pack his luggage, a memory flashed through his mind. It seemed that he remembered that the reason why Lu Yao in his previous life became the youngest designer of a luxury brand was entirely because during college, this girl secretly applied for fashion design without telling her family. However, the Lu family was in turmoil at the time and no one cared about this. Later, when the Lu family declined, Lu Yiming naturally paid less attention to Lu Yao. This girl, could it be… I’m afraid that even if I fly to Paris this time, it will be in vain. This girl might have already left Paris. Although Paris is the capital of fashion, it is not the best choice if you really want to study design. Lu Yao doesn’t have many friends. Although Lu Aijun and Zhang Qian are particularly doting on their daughter. But it is definitely not the kind that has no bottom line. Lu Yao cannot cross the red line of making friends. There’s nothing we can do about it. The older generation always thinks that girls will suffer losses. Lu Aijun even found an excuse to drink with Lu Yao on Lu Yao’s 18th birthday. Originally, Lu Aijun wanted to tell his daughter through his own actions. How much is her alcohol limit? After all, if a little girl enters society, she must learn to protect herself. It is impossible for parents to protect their daughters from the wind and rain forever. If Lu Yao got drunk by then, Lu Aijun would tell his daughter earnestly that 10 bottles of beer was her limit. Remember, don’t drink too much and learn to protect yourself. Especially when you are alone in a foreign country. However, for Lu Aijun, that night is still fresh in his memory and he will never forget it. Lu Yao perfectly inherited the Zhang family’s drinking capacity. Lu Yiming seemed to have heard before that Lu Yao’s grandfather was known for being able to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. Of course, this description may be a bit exaggerated. However, his father was, after all, a seasoned boss. That night, he was drunk by his own daughter. It’s really embarrassing to tell this to others. It started with beer. After drinking for a while, he saw that there was no sign of drunkenness in Lu Yao’s eyes. In order to achieve his goal, Lu Aijun simply switched to white wine. Split three bottles of Moutai in half. As a result, Lu Aijun was drunk and his eyes were blurry, and he saw Lu Yao twice. Only then did I finally realize that my worries were completely unnecessary. “Dad, get up, let’s continue, are you still capable? Don’t embarrass yourself!” Well, Lu Aijun was really embarrassed that night. Even after waking up the next day, he refused to talk about drinking. Lu Aijun clearly realized that if a man had any bad intentions in this regard, he would probably be drunk by his daughter and sent to the hospital. Ahem… Of course, these are not the point. The point is, Lu Yao doesn’t have many friends, and even fewer with whom he can confide. My only best friend is… Lu Yiming quickly picked up his car keys. Find Liang Qian and you will know where Lu Yao is! Although Lu Yiming didn’t understand why Liang Qian and Lu Yao could play together despite the age difference between them. And they can still maintain such a good relationship. But one thing is certain, Lu Yao will not hide anything about this girl from Liang Qian. Chapter 165 Lu Yao’s Whereabouts “What’s up?” Liang Qian was confused when she saw Lu Yiming rushing into her office impatiently. What happened to your stinky brother? So anxious?! “I just booked a flight to Paris.” “Paris?” Liang Qian’s expression became a little strange. What was she going to do in Paris? Could it be… Lu Yiming: As expected! Looking at Liang Qian’s expression, I knew that she was definitely hiding something from me. “Where is Lu Yao?” “No, that’s your sister. Why are you asking me?” “Has anyone ever told you that you’re not a good liar?” Lu Yiming placed his hands on Liang Qian’s desk, leaned forward, and stared into Liang Qian’s eyes. “I really don’t know.” His eyes were evasive and his tone was hurried, and Lu Yiming really guessed it right. “Liang Qian, you should know how busy I am right now. Do you want me to put down everything I’m doing and go to the streets of Paris to look for Lu Yao aimlessly?” “No, Lu Yao is not a child and can take care of himself.” “So, where is she?” Lu Yiming was already very sure that Liang Qian must know Lu Yao’s movements. “I promised Lu Yao that I would keep it a secret for her.” “hehe…” “Stinky brother, are you cheating me?” “Hurry up, my dad already knows.” “But…” Liang Qian really didn’t want to betray Lu Yao, after all, she was her best friend. Well, Liang Qian admitted that she did have other intentions when she approached Lu Yao at the beginning. In Liang Qian’s view, Lu Yao is Lu Yiming’s nominal sister after all, and also her future sister in law. Being able to have a good relationship with Lu Yao will bring you only benefits and no harm. But after getting to know Lu Yao, Liang Qian also fell deeply in love with the little princess of the Lu family. Although he is willful sometimes, Lu Yao has not picked up any of the bad habits of rich people. She’s a very clean little girl, without any deep thoughts, and very much to my taste. As time went by, Liang Qian and Lu Yao’s relationship grew stronger and stronger, and finally they reached the point where they could talk about anything. And this time, Lu Yao did report his action plan to Liang Qian. In fact, Liang Qian also contributed to this. If you want to succeed, you must be financially independent, but the money Lu Yao uses is all given by Lu Aijun. Once Lu Aijun’s secondary card is swiped, won’t everything be exposed? In order to fulfill her best friend’s wish, Liang Qian not only offered advice, but also provided more financial support. I have to say, it is extremely rare for a best friend to do this. But Liang Qian never expected that Lu Yiming would suspect her so quickly. How long has it been? It was discovered. “Brother, why are you so fierce? I am doing this for Lu Yao’s own good.” Liang Qian: (T_T) My stinky little brother was actually mean to me. His expression just now was so scary. Woo woo woo… Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… It’s still being performed. Sure enough, women are born actors. “Okay, hurry up, she’s young and acting silly, why are you following her?” “I didn’t. I was just supporting my best friend’s dream.” Liang Qian would never admit that she was fooling around. Besides, Lu Yao and my analysis were correct. Although Paris Business School is one of the top management schools in the world, it is completely useless for Lu Yao to learn it. So what if you come back after completing your studies? Lu Yao knew very well that the Lu Group was destined to be passed on to Lu Yiming in the future, and she didn’t want to be just a vase. Besides, the relationship between Lu Yao and Lu Yiming was not harmonious. Once he returns home after completing his studies, his father will definitely arrange Lu Yao into the company first. By then, Lu Yiming and Lu Yao will definitely have a work conflict. Both of them are people who never give up. Instead of doing this, it is better to plan for your future early. This reason convinced Liang Qian, and with Liang Qian’s help, Lu Yao escaped. Travel thousands of miles and set out towards your own dream. Besides, Lu Yao is a top student himself, and those who can graduate early from the Paris Business School are all top talents. Everything was originally arranged well. But who would have thought that just a week later, Lu Aijun missed his daughter so much that he asked the housekeeper to go to the school to check on her. As a result, everything was exposed. Upon learning that his daughter was missing, Lu Aijun was naturally anxious. The task of finding Lu Yao naturally fell on Lu Yiming. Looking at Liang Qian, who was feeling guilty, Lu Yiming lost his temper. Tell me, are you guys too idle and just causing trouble for yourselves? “Hurry up, where is it?” “I…I…” “Is it in Hong Kong?” Lu Yiming thought of a possibility and asked tentatively. The result was… “How do you know that?” Guessed it right. “Could this girl be studying fashion design?” “You know this too?” Now, Liang Qian was even more surprised. Lu Yao kept saying that Lu Yiming didn’t care about her at all. However, Lu Yiming was able to guess everything, even knowing Lu Yao’s choice. This was too amazing. You little rascal, are you still hiding something from me? If this is called indifference, who else in the world understands Lu Yao’s thoughts better? “It is so.” Lu Yiming smiled coldly, he knew it. In fact, this is not difficult to infer. First of all, in order to create an independent environment for herself and prevent her parents from discovering her, Lu Yao cut off her own source of income. With Liang Qian’s support alone, he would definitely not be able to stay in Europe and the United States for a long time. To study fashion design, the only two options are Paris and Milan, but the tuition and living expenses in these two places are not low. Lu Yao was also embarrassed to let Liang Qian take on everything for him. If you calculate it this way, Hong Kong is the best choice. After all, Hong Kong University’s fashion design major is ranked among the best in the world. This way, you can also reduce your living expenses. “Brother, you made all these guesses. I didn’t betray my best friend.” “Plastic sisters.” “Hey, how can you say that? The friendship between Lu Yao and I can stand the test of time.” Liang Qian said with an unconvinced look on her face. “Address, school, hurry up.” “There’s really no need for that. Lu Yao knows what he’s doing.” Liang Qian was still thinking about whether she could persuade Lu Yiming. After all, this was a decision made by Lu Yao himself. “I know Lu Yao better than you do.” “you…” “Do you want my dad to come find you?” “No, I’ll give it to you now.” Sure enough, when Lu Aijun was brought up, Liang Qian instantly became timid. Well, it’s not that I don’t have loyalty to my best friends. I really can’t afford to offend my future father in law. When choosing between her future sister in law and her future father in law, Liang Qian naturally knew what to do. Soon, Liang Qian gave Lu Yao’s address in Hong Kong to Lu Yiming. “Let’s have a good chat when we meet. Lu Yao is a grown up girl now.” “How about you come with me?” “Well, forget it then.” I have already betrayed my best friend, so it’s not appropriate to meet her now. Chapter 166 Spirited Young Man “Little girl, why don’t you come to your aunt’s house for dinner tonight? It’s not easy for you to study abroad alone.” Lu Yao didn’t expect that her landlord’s wife would be so kind. To be honest, this time, Lu Yao mustered up the courage to drop out of school without telling her parents and came to Hong Kong alone. After calming down and thinking about it, I feel that I was indeed a little impulsive. Although the process is full of some small twists and turns, the result is good, isn’t it? It was the first time for Lu Yao to set foot on the land of Hong Kong. This Oriental Pearl, which was about to return to the motherland, was full of vitality. So far, Hong Kong has left a good impression on me. Of course, it is impossible for Lu Yao today to spend money as lavishly as before. Although Lu Yao has always told himself that when he gets a job in the future, he will pay back the money he borrowed from Sister Qian as soon as possible. But now, any savings are good. The house that Lu Yao rented was in Kowloon. Of course, it’s not the Kowloon Walled City in the movie. That place was demolished more than ten years ago. Some of the indigenous people chose to demolish and return the property as it was. The public security in Kowloon is much better now. But for young girls, especially single girls, it is better to go home before dark. The building that Lu Yao rented was newly built in recent years. Considering the high housing prices in Hong Kong, it was really not cheap. At the end of 1995, the monthly rent of 13,000 was something that many working class people could only sigh at. The landlady is a nice person. It is said that this 40 foot house was originally reserved for his son’s marriage. In the current good economic situation, buying a house with a loan and using the rent as mortgage to repay the mortgage can also reduce some of the burden on the family. It can be seen that this is the thinking of the Chinese people. For the sake of the next generation, it doesn’t matter if I suffer a little. Of course, such conditions are already quite superior for ordinary people in Hong Kong. When the landlady saw Lu Yao for the first time, she liked this polite child. The key is that this little girl is beautiful and sensible. Although he only stayed there for a few days, there was absolutely no problem with his lifestyle, and Lu Yao was not seen bringing any bad friends with him. They are not as ostentatious as the young people in Hong Kong today. If possible, maybe… “That’s too much trouble. I can handle it myself.” “It’s okay. It’s not a problem at all. You are about the same age as my son. Maybe we can have something in common.” The landlady was all smiles. “Well…” Lu Yao originally wanted to refuse, but the landlady was a little too enthusiastic. In the end, Lu Yao agreed. “It’s settled. I’ll go back and make some soup now.” Seeing that Lu Yao agreed, the landlady was delighted. I’ll call my son later and ask him to come back early today. To be honest, the landlord’s wife was also helpless. Both husband and wife are honest office workers. At his age now, he should be able to enjoy his retirement, but it’s all because of his son’s failure. With the development of Hong Kong, the couple has also enjoyed the benefits of Hong Kong’s rise. The family’s conditions are getting better and better. We live in a high rise building and have our own property. But his only worry is his son. How to say it. He has been a bad student since childhood and likes to hang out with bad friends on the street. The family has no worries about food and clothing. But I just don’t want to study hard. After being expelled from public school, his parents were worried sick and they scraped together money to send their son to a private school. In the end, I still didn’t make any progress. In the end, the parents had to accept the reality that their son was not cut out for study. I thought that since my son couldn’t go to college, he might as well learn a skill. With his parents’ help in the future, he would at least be able to support the family. To this end, the landlady contacted many acquaintances and used many connections. But the son didn’t stay for long before he was kicked out by his master. In the past two years, he has been hanging out on the streets every day, appearing and disappearing like a ghost, and most of the time, he does not return home at night. It really makes parents worry. I see that children of my peers have already started their own families and careers. But my own son is different. He brings a girl home to spend the night from time to time. But which of these girls looks like she is living a normal life? Not only were they dressed in fancy clothes, but they also made themselves look so ugly that it was really disgusting to look at. In order to get her son to change his mind, the landlady this time set her sights on Lu Yao. This little girl Lu Yao looks like she is from a respectable family. Well educated and well mannered. Although she is a girl from the mainland, her family background should not be bad. Besides, the little girl is so pretty. If my son really likes her, I will help him even if it means risking my reputation. Maybe after my son gets married, he will be able to settle down? Of course, there is nothing wrong with parents considering their children, but it is too much to want to hook up with Lu Yao just for their children. That is to say, Lu Yao didn’t know what the landlord’s wife was thinking, otherwise… “Hello 8313, call back as soon as possible and leave a message. Your mother is dying.” After the landlady returned home, she called her son many times, but there was no response. The angry landlady’s blood pressure soared. This time there was finally a response. Ten minutes later, the phone at home rang. “Where are you? Come home for dinner tonight.” The landlady frowned when she answered the phone. The noise coming from the phone really made her feel uncomfortable. It’s not even night yet, and we’re in a bar, and he doesn’t even answer my pager. “I told you a long time ago that I don’t have a cell phone, so it’s inconvenient to call back. Besides, I’ve already made an appointment with a friend today, so don’t wait for me to eat.” My son’s intermittent voice came from the phone. Seems very impatient. “You want a cell phone, don’t you? Come home for dinner tonight and I’ll buy it for you.” “real?” “When did mom ever lie to you?” “Okay, it’s a deal.” After hanging up the phone, he whistled triumphantly. I have been coveting the Little Smart in “Young and Dangerous” for a long time. It was not launched in Hong Kong originally, but not long ago, mobile communication companies in the mainland and Hong Kong signed an agreement, and Xiaolingtong officially entered the Hong Kong market. This is a product endorsed by my idol. Nowadays, many gangsters have a cell phone in their hands. This is fashion. It can only be said that the promotion of the movie was beyond Lu Yiming’s expectations. Who would have thought that Xiaolingtong would also cause a storm among these communities. “You guys go ahead and play first, I’m going home.” “Hey, Sister Mary is coming tonight, are you willing to leave?” “Come on, it’s impossible for Sister Mary to like me. “Sister Mary has quite a few little sisters around her.” “I don’t like those slutty girls, let’s talk later.” He walked without caring about his relatives and pushed open the door of the dance hall. His blond hair was particularly eye catching in the sunset. Chapter 167 Easily Cleaned Up “Landlady, I’m sorry to trouble you.” “It’s not a big deal. Look at you. It’s just a meal. Why would you bring a gift?” The landlady’s face was full of smiles as she took the flowers from Lu Yao’s hand. The little girl is polite and the more I look at her, the more I like her. “Please sit down for a moment. The soup will be ready soon.” “Do you need help?” “Need not.” Lu Yao sat on the sofa as he was told. To be honest, the landlord’s house is not that big. At least in Lu Yao’s eyes, it was too ordinary. The decoration inside the house is very ordinary, and the home appliances give people a feeling of being from ten years ago. I guess they couldn’t bear to throw it away when they moved, so they moved it here together. It can be seen that the landlord’s family is still very frugal. Just at this moment, there was a sound outside the door. “I’m back. Where’s the money you promised me?” The voice arrives before the person arrives. Lu Yao frowned slightly. The tone was too frivolous and made people feel uncomfortable. As for the landlady who heard the noise, she rushed out immediately. You poor boy, you’re talking nonsense again. If I leave a bad impression on Lu Yao, it will be difficult to change it in the future. “What nonsense are you talking about, you poor boy? We have guests at home.” “Guests? What guests?” With dazzling yellow hair, a yellowed white tight T shirt, and flowery arms, this outfit is really… Lu Yao frowned even more. Is this the landlady’s son? If I had known that he was such a person, I should not have accepted the landlady’s invitation. “Hey, pretty girl.” When he saw Lu Yao for the first time, the yellow haired man’s eyes lit up. Pretty girl, pure pretty girl. The first time I saw Lu Yao, it felt like seeing my first love. “This is our tenant. Don’t scare him. Xiao Lu, this is my son, Ding Man.” The landlady hurriedly introduced it, fearing that she would scare Lu Yao. “No, Mom, your soup is boiling, go clean it up quickly.” “Nonsense, I was clearly turning on a low flame.” “Really, go and see for yourself.” It was obviously an excuse to get the mother away; even a fool could see that. “Okay, then please help me entertain Xiao Lu.” “Leave it to me.” Huangmao Ding had a filthy look on his face. When he saw his mother enter the kitchen, he immediately walked out with a quick step, as if he didn’t care about anyone. “Pretty girl, please sit down. You’re welcome.” He sat down in front of Lu Yao with his arms and legs spread out. “Girl, you are from the mainland, right? Don’t you understand Cantonese? It’s okay, I can speak a little Mandarin!” The guy in front of me is quite funny. How should I evaluate her? She thinks she is very fashionable. She obviously has no flesh on her body, but she still wants to show off her ribs. “Don’t be embarrassed, pretty girl. You are my tenant. If you run into trouble on the street in the future, tell me and I will definitely be able to help you solve it!” This tone makes him seem like the best in the world. “No, thank you.” “Don’t be embarrassed, the mainland is not like Hong Kong. I am not a bad person.” As he spoke, he moved a little closer to Lu Yao. He acts like a gangster. “Pretty girl, you just arrived in Hong Kong, right? You haven’t been out to play before, right? Brother Man will take you out to broaden your horizons later.” “Don’t be afraid, pretty girl. Brother Man can handle it.” “Pretty girl, these streets are all under the protection of Brother Man. No matter what the problem is, as long as you say Brother Man’s name, he can handle it.” Lu Yao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Can’t you see that you don’t want to pay attention to the other person? Ding Man thought Lu Yao was embarrassed and wanted to go a step further. result… “Ouch…” Ding Man secretly stretched out his arm, wanting to put his arm around Lu Yao’s shoulders like in the movies. That’s how it’s played out in the movies. The male protagonist is so domineering that the female character can’t wait to throw herself into his arms. All I can say is that ideals are full and reality is skinny. Ding Man only felt a sharp pain in his arm, and the next moment the world was spinning, and he was pressed to the ground? this… I just want to ask, what exactly happened? “You…you sneak attack!” He was actually pinned to the ground by a pretty girl. If he told this to others, his brothers would laugh to death. No, it must be because I was careless for a moment. Ding Man was about to struggle, but the next moment, he felt a sharp pain in his arm again. “Ah… it hurts, it hurts…” “Be honest, do you hear me?” “Bitch.” “Ouch.” “This is called the grappling hand, do you understand?” “Let me go if you dare, let’s fight!” “Click…” “No, be gentle, it’s broken, it’s broken!” Ding Man felt like crying. This woman is not a good person. She is so strong. Who would have thought that this girl was actually a martial artist. “I give in. I give in, okay?” Lu Yao sneered. That’s all, little guy? Why does Lu Yao know how to capture hands? This story begins when I was a child. Who made Lu Yao and Lu Yiming not get along since childhood? Unfortunately, she was young and was always bullied by Lu Yiming, so Lu Yao made up her mind to become his apprentice and learn skills. When Lu Aijun faced his daughter’s request, he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. What’s the point of learning these for a good girl? But Lu Yao was only 7 or 8 years old at the time, how could he have any bad intentions? Besides, as a daughter slave, Lu Aijun naturally couldn’t resist Lu Yao’s coquetry. Lu Aijun himself is from the army. Although he has been retired for a long time, the passion in his bones is still there. Finally, he agreed to Lu Yao’s request. Since he wanted to become a disciple, he had to find the best one. It’s no wonder that Lu Yao has learned a lot of skills in just one year. At least you won’t be bullied anymore. Lu Yao was full of confidence and felt that she could finally beat Lu Yiming to a pulp. But who would have thought that Lu Yiming actually changed his strategy and no longer bullied him openly, but instead ignored him and used cold violence! This made Lu Yao so angry that his teeth itched. Isn’t it that all the suffering I have endured this year has been in vain? Of course, looking at it now, it’s pretty good, at least I can protect myself. As for the person in front of me. “Bitch, if you have the guts…” Ding Man, who was released by Lu Yao, stood up immediately and became arrogant. He thought that he was not careful just now. “Okay, stop pretending to be a hooligan. Your tattooed arms are all gone.” “Well?” it took? Ding Man immediately looked at his arms, and sure enough, he had struggled too hard just now, and the paint had melted away. “You…I…” It’s so embarrassing. I spent 100 yuan to have the kid from the art school next door draw this tattoo on my arm. Originally it was quite effective. When I went out, I was very impressive and people would walk around me. But now… “If you have the guts, just draw a line and I’ll follow it.” “hehe…” Lu Yao rolled his eyes. He was just a little brat, pretending to be a member of a gang. “You look down on me!” “Shameful.” “I…!” “Don’t mess with me, or I’ll do something to you!” Lu Yao raised his fist towards Ding Man. The next moment, the world was completely quiet. Chapter 168: The Smoke and Misery “The soup is ready, come and have some.” The moment the landlady came out of the kitchen carrying the soup, she could hardly believe her eyes. The poor guy actually sat on the sofa obediently. this… This kind of scene must have happened when I was a kid, right? ! How old were you then? Five or six years old? “Come on, drink the soup quickly.” The landlady was naturally delighted with her son’s change. Could it be that she had guessed right? Is my son trying to show off in front of the girl? Ding Man: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… girl? Haha, is there such a girl? It’s obviously the ‘Shudao Mountain Girl’, okay! I’m already honest, please let me go! The landlady was quite enthusiastic at this time. “Don’t have to wait for uncle to come back?” “Let’s not wait for him. He has to work overtime every day and there’s no fixed time. Let’s eat first.” In front of the landlady, Lu Yao was still the gentle girl, completely different from just now. “You’re even better at pretending than me.” “What did you say, bastard?” “Huh? Nothing, I didn’t say anything.” Ding Man shut up immediately because Lu Yao’s eyes were too threatening. I can’t afford to offend you. I really can’t afford to offend you. Seeing that Ding Man knew how to deal with things, Lu Yao was very satisfied. As expected, he was the one who needed to be punished. “Auntie, the soup is delicious.” “If you like it, come often.” “Don’t!” “What do you mean? You idiot, I invited Xiao Lu, why are you butting in?” “I… ahem, what I mean is that studying is important and I need to review my lessons.” It’s over, it’s over. I’ve offended the female Tyrannosaurus again. If this guy gets physical, he can break all his bones. “It’s weird.” The landlady naturally had no idea what had happened to her son. He then enthusiastically served soup to Lu Yao. The meal was a great success for both the host and the guests. “Thank you, it’s getting late, I’ll go back first.” “Okay, I’ll let the loser take you there.” “No, I have something else to do.” Give it to her? You are asking for trouble! Ding Man swore that he really didn’t want to provoke Lu Yao and would stay as far away from her as possible. “What are you talking about? It’s so late, she’s a girl, what if something happens to her?” The landlady kept winking at her son. The opportunity to perform has come. Ding Man: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What happened? If you really encounter a gangster, then it is the gangster who is unlucky! “Don’t just stand there, hurry up, I’m sorry.” Ding Man was kicked out of the house by the landlady. Watching his mother close the door, Ding Man felt like crying but had no tears. Ding Man: Mom, you are going to send your son away early! “Don’t do it!” Lu Yao just wanted to lift the strands of hair on her forehead, but look how scared Ding Man was. He’s a gangster with tattoos on his arms, but he’s so timid. “Haha, I’ve been practicing my acting skills recently. How is it? Does it look similar?” “hehe…” Lu Yao sneered. He could see that he was just a little brat. To him, he was not much of a threat. “I’m going back.” “I send you?” “Just you?” Ding Man: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Who are you looking down on? “I…I may not be able to beat you, but at least I am quite famous in our area.” “oh.” “You don’t believe it?” “I believe it.” “No, you obviously don’t believe it.” Even a fool can understand this expression. “Okay, I just don’t believe it.” Ding Man: Damn it, I owe it to myself. If you don’t want to believe it, then don’t believe it. Why would I bother her? But the key point is that this concerns the dignity of a man! “If you have the guts, follow me. I will open your eyes tonight. I am also a well known figure in Kowloon.” “Okay.” “ah?!” “Can’t you understand what people are saying?” “No, why did you agree?” Ding Man: I was just bragging. You could have refused to agree to it. You didn’t play by the rules at all. “Ahem, actually I was just saying it casually. You are a good girl, so it’s better for you not to go to those places.” “Stop talking nonsense and lead the way!” Lu Yao didn’t care. Where could it be? At most, they are bars, nightclubs and the like. Besides, Lu Yao really looked down on Ding Man. With his small physique, if he said he was just here to look after the place, the boss must be blind. At most, it’s just fooling around in the bar. “Don’t regret it.” Ding Man swore that he would let Lu Yao see his power tonight. A back street not far from home. It’s about 10 minutes away. Looking at the obviously dilapidated bar in front of him, Lu Yao couldn’t help but twitch his lips. That’s it? And you still say that you opened your eyes? “Ahem, what do you know? This is just our base.” Lu Yao’s eyes really hurt Ding Man’s self esteem. Well, Ding Man is not a gangster at all, at most he is just a group of buddies doing small fights. They usually show off in front of the nearby school, and they all think they are very great and handsome. In fact, life is very tight. If my family hadn’t given me money, I probably wouldn’t even be able to afford a bowl of barbecued pork rice. The places where people consume are naturally not up to standard. This bar is one of the few places where you can spend money. “Let me make this clear first. Sister Mary is coming tonight. You must not offend her. She is the leader of XX.” Before going in, Ding Man gave some special instructions. Maybe it’s well intentioned. After all, Lu Yao was someone I brought here, so I must be responsible. “I know, no need to bother.” Lu Yao replied casually, but it can be seen that this guy is not a bad person. “I’m just reminding you so that you don’t provoke someone you shouldn’t provoke.” As he spoke, Timon pushed open the door of the bar. Only then did Lu Yao understand what a foul and chaotic environment meant. There’s something really… I instantly felt regretful. At this time, an Airbus landed at Hong Kong Airport. Twenty minutes later, Lu Yiming appeared at the checkpoint. “Hello, Mr. Lu. The boss specially asked me to pick you up.” “It’s troublesome.” “You’re welcome, Lu Sheng.” This time, the treatment was completely different. In order to save time, Lu Yiming greeted Zhuang Sheng in advance. Zhuang Sheng gave up his car. “Have you found the person?” “Please rest assured, Mr. Lu. Mr. Zhuang has already told us that we will not alert the enemy before you arrive.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Ahem, this idiom seems to be used in the wrong place. But never mind, finding someone is more important. When we meet again, I will definitely teach Aunt Zhang a lesson about Lu Yao. If you are brave enough, you will dare to disappear. The Maybach started and drove towards the Kowloon area. “Please rest assured, Mr. Lu, nothing will happen to Miss Lu.” After learning the news, Zhuang Sheng deliberately sent his most capable subordinate over. It can definitely guarantee the other party’s safety. As for the rest, we have to wait for Lu Sheng’s decision. Chapter 169 Sister Mary “Hey, didn’t you go home to ask for money? Your expression is wrong.” As soon as Ding Man entered the room, several buddies who had gathered together immediately greeted him. Maybe I think I’m pretty cool. But in Lu Yao’s eyes. The red hair, the green hat and Timon’s yellow hair, this is definitely a traffic light. Is this popular now? “Hey, pretty girl.” As soon as the brothers saw Lu Yao, they immediately became excited. That’s awesome! This guy went back home and brought a beautiful girl with him? This appearance is more beautiful than that of a celebrity. “Don’t…” Ding Man was just about to explain when his friends came up to Lu Yao. “It’s over.” Ding Man covered his eyes. She is a beautiful girl, but she is also the ‘Heroine of Shudao Mountain’. Lu Yao: Indeed, they are birds of a feather. Ten minutes later. Everyone became quiet. “Fuck, you are so disloyal.” All the resentful looks were directed at Timon. Why didn’t you remind me that this woman’s fighting power is off the charts! “I wanted to remind you, but you wouldn’t let me.” Ding Man sat on the sofa and watched the show, it was his duty! “What do you want to drink, auntie?” “beer.” “How about Heineken?” “It will be all right.” To be honest, Lu Yao didn’t really like this kind of environment. I’m just bored, so I’ll have a beer and then go home. Now no one dared to provoke Lu Yao. They respectfully handed him a bottle of beer and secretly glanced at him out of the corner of their eyes. This female hero is so powerful that ordinary people can’t get close to her. Everyone is very curious about Lu Yao’s origins. “Okay, stop watching. You have no chance.” “It’s like you’re in a drama.” “I have no chance either.” Ding Man took a sip of wine. He couldn’t afford to offend this girl. “By the way, where’s Sister Mary? Hasn’t she come yet?” “I just contacted him and he’s on his way.” “You’ll remind her later that Sister Mary is different from us, so don’t offend her.” “Don’t worry, I’ve already explained it.” Sister Mary was a guest we had invited with great difficulty. We all want to get into society, especially with the recent hit of Young and Dangerous. Being involved in society has become the most desirable thing for young people in Hong Kong, especially walking on the streets in gangs, which seems so glorious. In order to realize their dream, several young people decided to invite Sister Mary to the bar. It would be even better if you could help with the recommendation. Just at this moment, the door of the bar was pushed open, and a very fashionably dressed woman walked into the bar with a sexy step. There were a few teenage girls following behind him. “Ms. Mary.” “Ms. Mary.” Seeing the visitor, Ding Man and his companions quickly stood up respectfully. They could joke around without restraint behind Sister Mary’s back, but when they really faced Sister Mary, Ding Man and his friends didn’t even dare to breathe loudly. “Um.” Sister Mary looked around, and when she saw Lu Yao, her gaze stayed on him for a long time. “Sister Mary, I’m just a friend. I brought you here to broaden your horizons.” Ding Man immediately stepped forward and explained. “She’s a good girl, don’t mess around.” Sister Mary said casually and found a seat to sit down. “Of course, of course.” Ding Man immediately agreed. Provoking this guy? Forget it. He just wanted to die. At this time, Sister Mary took out a ladies’ cigarette from her bag. Ding Man immediately handed over a lighter. In the dim light, the flame from the lighter briefly illuminated Sister Mary’s face. About 27 or 28 years old. She’s wearing so much makeup that you can’t tell her true appearance. She must be a beauty. Lu Yao just took a look out of curiosity. Unexpectedly, Sister Mary was looking at me. He smiled at Lu Yao and raised the wine glass in his hand. I don’t know why, but Sister Mary seems to have a good impression of Lu Yao. Lu Yao also raised the beer in his hand. No words. Just like Sister Mary said, this place is not suitable for Lu Yao. Now that I have experienced it, I should return to my original life. Lu Yao finished the rest of the beer and prepared to leave. But at this moment, the door of the bar was suddenly kicked open violently. “You bitch, you are here!” With a curse, everyone realized that the bar had been blocked. this… “Tyrannosaurus, you are sick.” Sister Mary was not willing to be outdone. After seeing who was coming, she stood up immediately. “Fuck, bitch, you’ve crossed the line. This is not your fucking territory.” This scene happened too suddenly. Ding Man and his friends were all confused. However, this is the real person who mixes in society. At this moment, Ding Man suddenly felt his calves trembling. “Bitch, don’t think you’re great just because you’re with XX. Today I’m going to block you. Not only that, I’m going to fuck you!” The Tyrannosaurus had a grim smile on his face. During this period, Mary’s subordinates kept stealing Tyrannosaurus’ business, which made Tyrannosaurus very unhappy. This time, his subordinates reported that Mary had come to his territory. Of course, Tyrannosaurus had to seize this once in a lifetime opportunity . “You dare?” “Fuck, what is there for me to be afraid of?” Tyrannosaurus looked very proud and didn’t take Ding Man and the others seriously at all. They are just a bunch of little brats. If we really want to take action, we can finish them in minutes. As for Mary, she brought a few little sisters with her to add some extra food to the brothers. Sister Mary’s face was gloomy at the moment. She was careless and didn’t expect that Tyrannosaurus really didn’t follow the rules. It seems that this night will not end peacefully. Tyrannosaurus brought more than twenty little brothers with him, and he is going to be in trouble this time. “If you know what’s best for you, come over here. When I’m done serving you, I’ll sell you to the New Territories.” The Tyrannosaurus laughed wantonly. The next moment, he saw Lu Yao in the crowd. It’s just that Lu Yao’s dress is too different. “Oh, there’s another pretty girl.” Compared to Mary, Lu Yao seems to be more to Tyrannosaurus’s taste. It’s been a long time since I met such a pure girl. “She is not ours, let her go.” Even though she couldn’t save herself, Mary still wanted to save Lu Yao. “Fuck, what do you care about me? Girl, follow me, I’ll take you flying.” With a grim smile on his face, the Tyrannosaurus approached Lu Yao and even stretched out his hand to touch Lu Yao’s beautiful and smooth face. The next moment. “Pah…” Headshot, the wine bottle in Lu Yao’s hand hit the Tyrannosaurus directly on the head. this… Are you going to do it now? Not to mention the Tyrannosaurus, even Sister Mary was stunned. A heroine. “I fuck you…” The Tyrannosaurus just realized that he had been stabbed in the head. As a result, the half empty bottle was pressed against his throat. I was speechless for a moment. Did I meet a ruthless person? She is obviously a weak woman, how could she be so ruthless? “Don’t move.” Lu Yao shouted, and at this time, the music in the bar had already stopped. Everyone could hear Lu Yao’s voice clearly. “Let us go.” “Go away, if you can, kill me.” Lu Yao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Unexpectedly, this time I met a young man who didn’t even want to live? I am sure Lu Yao would not dare to kill him. At this moment, there was an obvious trace of panic on Lu Yao’s face. Chapter 170 No matter who it is, no one can hurt my family “Fuck, don’t dare to do it! You stinky bitch!” The reason why Tyrannosaurus Rex was able to become famous in Kowloon was because of his desperate madness. Even though Lu Yao held a broken wine bottle against his throat, he still went crazy. The blood flowing down his forehead made him look even more terrifying. He took a step forward and clearly felt that the other party was retracting his strength. While Lu Yao was stunned, Tyrannosaurus snatched the broken wine bottle from Lu Yao’s hand. “Pah…” Lu Yao felt a sharp pain on his face and fell directly onto the sofa behind him. “You stinky bitch, if you dare to hit me, I will make you live a life worse than death tonight.” Tyrannosaurus had a hideous smile on his face. This bitch must pay the price. “She had nothing to do with it.” “Fuck, I can’t even protect myself!” He glanced at Ding Man who wanted to stand up, wondering when it would be the little bastard’s turn to speak. Under the powerful threat of the Tyrannosaurus, Ding Man did not dare to take another step forward. Is this the club you long for? Timon was filled with fear at this moment. Tyrannosaurus took two steps forward and looked at Lu Yao who was lying on the sofa, his eyes full of desire. The little bitch has delicate skin and tender flesh, I must have a good time tonight. At this time, Lu Yao closed his eyes in despair. His father was right. The society was by no means as simple as he had imagined. However, the price of this realization was too high. At this moment, Lu Yao heard a “bang” sound, followed by the exclamations of the crowd. what happened? A hand touched Lu Yao’s face, gently and softly, but it made Lu Yao tremble uncontrollably. “Tsk, he used to be the king of the family and was a dragon, but now he’s just a worm.” An all too familiar voice. Lu Yao will never forget that scornful laugh. I suddenly opened my eyes, it was him, it was really him! Although he least wanted to admit it, he was still nominally his half brother. The smile on Lu Yiming’s face still made Lu Yao feel uncomfortable. You are the bug! Although she was saved, Lu Yiming’s tone really made Lu Yao angry. But, but… If it weren’t for him, I might have been… This time, Lu Yao did not get angry. Not only did she not get angry, but she couldn’t control her tears from falling. “Okay, I’m here, why are you crying? You just want to embarrass the family.” Seeing Lu Yao’s sad look seemed to have touched the softest chord in Lu Yiming’s heart. After rebirth, my heart became softer. If it were in his previous life, Lu Yiming would never do this. He gently held Lu Yao in his arms and carefully soothed her emotions. “If you’re in charge, I’ll be embarrassed, wuwuwu…” Grievances, so many grievances. When I saw Lu Yiming again, I felt that my brother was different, completely different from the brother in my mind. In my impression, my brother only bullies me and laughs at me. He won’t hug me, let alone comfort me. As for what happened when Lu Yao closed his eyes just now, everyone saw it clearly. At the moment when the Tyrannosaurus stretched out its evil hand, Lu Yiming, like a god descending from the sky, directly picked up the stick in his hand, completely disregarding the consequences. Even the Tyrannosaurus Rex, which is known for its madness, couldn’t resist it. The next moment, many men in black suits rushed into the bar. This… If Sister Mary is involved in a gang, then these black suits are clearly of a higher level. “Lu Sheng, everything is resolved.” Zhuang Sheng’s assistant came to Lu Yiming and said respectfully. Mary: (○´ ・ д ・ )ノ It’s him. The man himself had seen it. Even his boss’s boss was respectful to him. The other party had such a superior status, yet he appeared so respectful in front of this young man. I really can’t imagine who this young man is? ! “I want a satisfactory result, otherwise, I don’t mind doing it myself.” A cold light flashed in Lu Yiming’s eyes. Especially after seeing the red marks on Lu Yao’s face, he became even more murderous. In his previous life, Lu Yiming was not a good man. If you bully your own sister, you should be prepared to go to hell. “Why did you come?” Lu Yao finally came back to his senses at this time. It’s so embarrassing. I’m so embarrassed. Why did I hide in Lu Yiming’s arms and cry? Wouldn’t my stinky brother laugh at what just happened for the rest of my life? As a brother and sister who have been fighting since they were old enough to understand things, what Lu Yao can’t accept the most is showing her weak side in front of Lu Yiming. “You still dare to ask, you have become more capable, right? You dropped out of school without telling your family and even ran away to Hong Kong. My dear sister, you really know how to cause trouble for me.” “I…” “Okay, shut up.” The next moment, in front of everyone’s shocked gazes, Lu Yiming directly picked up Lu Yao. What a romantic princess hug. “Put me down.” “Isn’t that embarrassing enough?” Lu Yao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Wait…wait.” Ding Man originally wanted to ask Lu Yiming where he was taking Lu Yao. As a result, he just got a glare from the men in black suits around him and immediately became timid. As for Lu Yiming, he completely ignored Ding Man’s meaning. He held Lu Yao and left the bar directly. “Don’t talk, we can’t afford to offend you.” Sister Mary, who was not afraid even of a Tyrannosaurus Rex, now had a look of fear on her face. This young man, let alone himself, even if he is the boss of his i club, he probably wouldn’t dare to provoke him. Although I don’t know the other party’s identity yet. However, the societies that seem so powerful in the eyes of ordinary people are at best like grass in the eyes of certain privileged classes. “Your friend’s identity is not simple.” Sister Mary sighed. As for the outcome of this matter, it is probably difficult to resolve it peacefully, especially for Tyrannosaurus, which is probably going to be completely finished. “Put me down. I can walk by myself.” Lu Yao wanted to struggle, it was too embarrassing to be held by Lu Yiming like this. Lu Yao couldn’t get over this psychological barrier. “obedient.” “you…” Damn brother, when did you become like this? It’s obviously like they are enemies. Also, how could a playboy like Lu Yiming have such a great influence in Hong Kong? After calming down, Lu Yao discovered more mysteries. Lu Yiming, on the other hand, sent Lu Yao to the back seat of the Maybach. “Give.” “What?” “Ice Cube, you still have the nerve to see people like this?” “you…” The sharp tongued Lu Yiming is online again, with the same original formula and the same taste. Therefore, the character of a good brother does not exist at all. Lu Yao angrily took the ice from Lu Yiming’s hand and covered her face with it. “hiss…” The feeling of numbness and pain made Lu Yao gasp. “Don’t worry, I won’t let go of anyone who hurts you.” A sharp light flashed in Lu Yiming’s eyes. In this life, you have to protect your own family. No matter who it is, if they hurt their family, they will not be forgiven. “Lu Sheng, what are we doing now?” “Take me back to the hotel.” “good.” Zhuang Sheng’s assistant said a few words to the driver and watched the Maybach leave. As for the assistant himself, he has to stay to deal with the follow up. Chapter 171 Heart Knot At the entrance of Sheraton Hong Kong. “What are you standing there for? Come in.” “I’m just wondering, are you still the Lu Yiming I know?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Lu Yao: There is too much evidence to prove that the guy in front of me is definitely not the brother in my memory. First of all, there is no way Lu Yiming would be so gentle to her. From childhood to adulthood, the two of them would never have any physical contact except for fighting, but today, he actually carried her like a princess. Thinking of this, Lu Yao got goose bumps all over his body. Also, when Lu Yiming is away from home, especially when helping his father with errands, he is extremely extravagant and wants to enjoy the best of everything. Although Sheraton is also a five star hotel, it is still too low end for a playboy like Lu Yiming. If Lu Yiming rented a private villa halfway up the mountain, Lu Yao would not be so surprised. More importantly, Lu Yao just couldn’t understand how such a dandy boy could have such a great influence in Hong Kong. At first, Lu Yao thought that Lu Yiming was taking advantage of his father’s connections. However, in the previous contact, Lu Yao clearly felt that the other party was completely out of respect for Lu Yiming. this… What happened during the time you were away from home? “I advise you to see an ophthalmologist.” “snort.” “If I were you, I would think carefully about how to deal with my parents now.” “You are gloating!” Hateful, as for that sharp tongued person, he is still the guy I hate. Damn it, everything that just happened was an illusion. How could I be moved the moment Lu Yiming appeared? It’s absolutely impossible! He must not be aware of his own situation, otherwise, he would be eager to see himself laughed at! “Hey, what are you doing!” Just when Lu Yao was making malicious guesses. Suddenly I found that my collar was pulled up by Lu Yiming. “Hurry up, I don’t want to be ‘visited’ by others.” This action is like holding a ‘puppy’. Lu Yao: Why? Why does it feel like Brother Chou has grown taller? Humph, it turns out that if you eat well, you will worry less and your body will develop better! “Why do you have a suite and I have a standard room?” In Lu Yao’s room. With an unconvinced look on her face, Lu Yao sat down on the bed after entering the room, turned her head away and didn’t even look at Lu Yiming. “What a joke. For the money I spent, it’s already pretty good that you have a place to live.” When Lu Yao couldn’t see, the corners of Lu Yiming’s mouth curled up slightly. It still feels familiar. I can only say that I was quite excited to see Lu Yao again. When we parted in the last life, I really didn’t think there was anything good about my “sister”. But now when I think back, although the relationship between the brother and sister has not been very good, they have lived together for more than 20 years after all. They have become accustomed to each other’s presence. “You spent the money? Lu Yiming, stop being ridiculous. Did you earn every penny you spent?” Lu Yao looked disdainful. “I’m your brother, don’t call me by my first name.” “snort.” “Shouldn’t you give Dad an explanation?” “What’s the explanation?” “Why did you drop out of school? Why did you come to Hong Kong?” “you…” Speaking of this, Lu Yao suddenly fell silent. “I like it, isn’t it?” “What do you like? Fashion design? If you can talk to your father calmly, maybe…” “impossible…” Lu Yao interrupted Lu Yiming. “I know in my heart what my father expects of me, but…” Lu Yao didn’t continue talking, but his eyes turned red. Yes, I have worked very hard since I was young. Maybe it’s because she really “hates” her brother Lu Yiming. Since childhood, Lu Yao has always wanted to do her best and do better than her brother. From childhood to adulthood, Lu Yao has always been the pride of the Lu family in Lu Aijun’s eyes. Compared to the dissolute Lu Yiming, Lu Yao was obviously the one carefully cultivated by the Lu family. Lu Yao received much more love than Lu Yiming. Lu Yao has always believed that in her parents’ hearts, she is everything. But… Lu Yao is now shaken. So what if I worked hard and got admitted to the Paris Business School? I always… Lu Yao has been avoiding this question, but this question bothers Lu Yao all the time. Looking at Lu Yao’s appearance, Lu Yiming took a bottle of beer from the bar in the room. He opened the can and took a big gulp. “You think your father should be able to see your efforts, but I am obviously a playboy, why does my father want me to inherit the Lu Group?” “You’re talking nonsense.” As soon as Lu Yiming finished speaking, Lu Yao immediately became excited. “Why not admit it? You chose business school because you want to inherit the Lu Group, right?” “I don’t!” “Lu Yao, check your conscience.” “I…” “You don’t like fashion design at all. For you, this choice is nothing but self destruction. You want your father to feel sorry for you. It’s a silent protest.” It was the same in the previous life. After Lu Yiming joined the Lu Group, Lu Yao immediately dropped out of school. It seems that this is the cause of everything. “Lu Yiming, don’t think you know me well.” Lu Yao suddenly stood up from the bed. He raised his head and glared into Lu Yiming’s eyes. “Yes, I really don’t know you very well, so let me guess, in your heart, no matter how bad I am, I am still your brother, so you feel that you need to make way for me.” “you…” Lu Yao was dumbfounded. Why did Lu Yiming have such an idea? Impossible, how could he guess it? “You should be aware of the problems within the Lu Group. If you return to train at the Lu Group after completing your studies, the top executives will most likely use the rift between us to sow discord between us. By then, the Lu Group will be caught in a situation where the brother and sister are fighting for supremacy, and it may even end up in a life and death ‘war’.” Lu Yiming was not exaggerating. This situation could really happen. “So, your choice of self sacrifice can be regarded as fulfilling my wish.” “I didn’t, Lu Yiming, don’t feel good, I just don’t want my father to be sad.” The momentum just now dissipated in an instant, Lu Yao lowered his head and slowly sat down on the bed. Yes, everything Lu Yiming just said was what Lu Yao thought of. For Lu Yao, doing this can indeed avoid the above situation from happening. At least by ‘sacrificing’ myself, I can better protect the Lu family, right? Lu Yao does not regret his decision or doing this. It’s just that… I’m no longer the pride of my parents. “Idiot, do you think I will be moved by doing this?” Lu Yiming glanced at Lu Yao and shook his head. After all, they were still family. At the critical moment, Lu Yao always chose to stand on the side of his family. “Lu Yiming, I never wanted to move you!” If Lu Yiming had not been reborn and had not experienced his previous life. Perhaps, Lu Yiming would naively think that Lu Yao’s tolerance was justified. Who made me the only male in the Lu family? But now… My sister is really stupid.

Thank you to all the readers who like this book and thank you for your support. Chapter 172 No one gives face “Lu Yao, you have never been afraid of competition. Also, my father did arrange for me to join the Lu Corporation, but if I were really a hopeless loser, would my father really hand over all the hard work he had put in his life to me?” “you…” Lu Yao never thought that Lu Yiming would say these in front of her. From childhood to adulthood, the idea that Lu Yiming had instilled in him had always been that he, Lu Yiming, was the only heir to the Lu family. He and his mother were just outsiders to the Lu family, “robbers”, and the culprits who took away everything from Lu Yiming. “Okay, don’t be so self righteous, and don’t think this is a handout for me. You only have one way to go now, and that is to go back to school as soon as possible. If you, Lu Yao, are really capable, I’ll be waiting for your challenge at the company at any time.” “It’s impossible. There’s no going back.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What does it mean? Isn’t it just taking a leave of absence from school? What do you mean you can’t go back? Could it be that you, Lu Yao, beat up the principal? “I…” “What did you do? Hit your classmates? Hit your teacher? Or…” “Lu Yiming, do you think everyone is the same as you?” Although the atmosphere was not right, Lu Yao still couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Lu Yiming. What a mess? Can’t you think a little better of yourself? You think everyone is like you! “I’ve graduated, okay!” “graduate?” Lu Yiming was stunned at first, but then he reacted immediately. “Don’t fool me, Lu Yao, you…” Lu Yao and Lu Yiming are three years apart. How long has Lu Yiming graduated from college? Lu Yao has already graduated? Is this possible? Yes, Lu Yiming admitted that his sister was indeed good at studying. When I was in high school, I skipped a grade, but after only two years abroad, I graduated from the Paris Business School? This is too exaggerated. “I completed all the credits ahead of time, so there’s nothing surprising about that.” Lu Yao said it nonchalantly, as if it was a trivial matter. “You’re not planning on going to graduate school?” “It’s meaningless. It’s just an MBA degree. For me, it has no practical significance other than being the icing on the cake.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Sure enough, the world of the academic master is something that I cannot understand. “Clean it up.” “What?” “Be prepared to return home with me.” “I’m not going back. I just paid the tuition and it’s not refundable.” “You don’t like costume design.” “But…” “Lu Yao, do you think what I just said was just a joke?” Maybe Lu Yao is really a business genius? In the previous life, Lu Yao was delayed because of me. “Lu Yiming, I really didn’t think about competing with you.” “Then why don’t you think about it, what if I don’t want to take over Lu’s?” “How is this possible?” Speaking of this, for Lu Yao, this sentence is the most outrageous. You, Lu Yiming, don’t care about the Lu Group? What a joke. From childhood to adulthood, the sentence Lu Yiming said most often in front of him was to tell him not to dream about the Lu Group. How could I possibly allow myself to compete now? “A lot has happened in the past two years.” “What’s the meaning?” “Weren’t you just wondering why I could command so many people in Hong Kong?” Facing Lu Yiming’s question, Lu Yao remained silent. Indeed, since his appearance till now, Lu Yiming has brought too many doubts to Lu Yao. “Have a good night’s sleep, and you’ll know tomorrow.” “you…” “Why, anything else?” “You don’t scold me?” Lu Yao had been waiting for a long time. I originally thought that Lu Yiming would definitely seize this opportunity. Even if he didn’t scold me, he would at least ridicule me. But Lu Yao never expected that Lu Yiming had no such intention at all. “You’re 20.” Lu Yiming shook his head, left Lu Yao’s room, and closed the door for Lu Yao. Lu Yao: He has changed, really changed. Today’s Lu Yiming is so strange to me. However, such a brother made me feel a little touched. This is how a brother treats his sister. How great would it be if we could be like this since childhood? Lu Yao has always hoped that she could have a brother like this. Picking up the ice pack beside the bed, a hint of affection flashed in Lu Yao’s eyes. As for Lu Yiming who was outside the door at this moment. His eyes were filled with gloom. Lu Yiming doesn’t care how his sister behaves. However, if anyone dares to hurt Lu Yao, don’t blame yourself for being cruel. Lu Yiming took out his cell phone and saw five missed calls, all from Zhuang Sheng. It seems that Zhuang Sheng has understood the whole story and must have encountered something he couldn’t decide. “Zhuang Sheng, it’s me.” “Mr. Lu, is Miss Lu okay?” “Thank you for your concern, Mr. Zhuang. I feel much more stable now.” “That’s good, that’s good.” On the phone, Zhuang Sheng smiled and asked about Lu Yao’s situation. However, Lu Yiming knew that Zhuang Sheng must have something else to say, otherwise he would not have called him five times in a row. “Lu Sheng, the current situation is this. Jiulong’s Tyrannosaurus is XX’s Red Flower Double Stick, and he is also his most loyal younger brother. XX’s Jiang Sheng asked someone to pass on a message. Can you let him go for his sake? The compensation he deserves must be paid in full?” Zhuang Sheng cannot make this decision on his own. Of course, although Mr. Jiang’s power is not small, it cannot threaten Mr. Zhuang. Besides, in this matter, Zhuang Sheng was just a middleman. No matter what the result is, all the blame will not be attributed to Zhuang Sheng. In Zhuang Sheng’s opinion, Lu Sheng should eventually choose to keep quiet. After all, Lu Sheng is very calm in this regard. Even though he was ambushed last time, he still made the decision that was best for himself. It’s a pity that Zhuang Sheng made a wrong calculation this time. “Zhuang Sheng, there are no Tyrannosaurus Rex in this world.” “Have you decided?” “yes.” “Okay, I understand.” Zhuang Sheng’s tone became noticeably more serious. Of course, Zhuang Sheng would not blame Lu Yiming’s decision, nor would it affect Lu Yiming and his own business. For businessmen, profit comes first. Besides, it was indeed Tyrannosaurus that went too far this time. Lu Yiming did not give face to anyone, which also sent a strong signal to the outside world. No matter who it is, as long as they touch my family, the outcome will be a fight to the death. You should weigh it yourself. “Tsk tsk, I originally thought that Lu Sheng was too rule abiding and a little soft, but now it seems that I was wrong.” After Zhuang Sheng hung up the phone, instead of being angry, he showed an expression of admiration. When it is time to be ruthless, you must be ruthless. This is the foundation for your survival. “Zhuang Sheng, what about us?” “Didn’t Lu Sheng already say that there shouldn’t be any Tyrannosaurus Rex in this world?” “But what about Mr. Jiang?” “Why? Do you think I still need to give Mr. Jiang an explanation?” “I don’t dare.” “Go ahead and do it. Be quick.” “clear!” Chapter 173: Surprises one after another Lu Yao slept soundly that night. Maybe it’s because I finally let my guard down. My family is right beside me. I haven’t felt this kind of security for two years. Even Lu Yao couldn’t believe that he would have such thoughts. Therefore, in my heart, I have always had the position of “brother”, but I just deliberately ignored it. At eight o’clock in the morning, Lu Yao was awakened by a knock on the door. Sleepy eyes. Looking at Lu Yiming at the door, Lu Yao was stunned for a moment. “No, it’s so early?” “Don’t tell me you still need to adjust to the time difference after being in Hong Kong for so long.” Lu Yiming’s expression was full of disgust. Lu Yao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Ha, the idea that there is a place for my brother in my heart is all an illusion. This look of disdain was one that I was all too familiar with. “Hurry up, after breakfast, I’ll take you to see someone.” “Take me?” “Instead of guessing, it’s better for you to understand it sooner.” “Give me ten minutes.” I can only say that it’s great to be young, as you dare to go out without makeup. So full of vitality. Ten minutes later, Lu Yao appeared in front of Lu Yiming again. Apart from the slight redness and swelling on the right side of her face, she is still a beautiful girl with vitality. only… “Why can you go to the 11th floor for breakfast while I have to go to the 3rd floor?” “What a joke! I live in a suite, how about you?” Lu Yao: (╯▔皿▔)╯ Having said that, Lu Yiming finally took Lu Yao to the restaurant on the 11th floor. In Lu Yiming’s words, there were originally two places available for one suite, and it would be a waste if they were not used. Looking at the angry Lu Yao, Lu Yiming was quite satisfied. Well, it’s fun to bully my sister occasionally. “Hey, is that Zheng XX?” Lu Yao was a little excited. She didn’t expect to see a celebrity in the restaurant. “Are you a star chaser?” “Not really, but he’s really popular recently. Haven’t you seen Young and Dangerous? He’s so handsome.” “So, you learned to hit people with bottles?” “Can we not mention this?” If that bastard hadn’t touched me first, I wouldn’t have been so violent, okay? Besides, the little girl has to be a little fierce when she is alone outside, otherwise, she will be the one who suffers. “That’s because you’re not cruel enough.” If I hadn’t shown up in time last night, the consequences would have been unimaginable. But at this moment, Zheng XX seemed to have discovered Lu Yiming and Lu Yao. “Hey, he’s coming towards us. Do you think I can get his autograph later?” Lu Yao was a little excited. However, when Zheng XX really stood in front of him, Lu Yao was completely dumbfounded. What was going on? know? “Mr. Lu, I didn’t expect to meet you here. I didn’t know you were coming to Hong Kong, otherwise I would definitely do my best to be a good host.” “You’re welcome. I just need something urgent.” “Who is this?” “My sister.” “Hello, Miss Lu. Nice to meet you.” Lu Yao: This… You are so polite, just like a subordinate meeting his superior. I just want to ask, how did Lu Yiming do it? After all, Zheng XX is a popular young actor. Isn’t it said that celebrities are very arrogant? Why is Zheng XX so cautious in front of Lu Yiming? “Then I won’t disturb Mr. Lu and Miss Lu’s reunion.” “etc.” “Is there anything else, Lu Sheng?” “My sister really likes your movies. Can you satisfy your fandom?” “It’s my pleasure.” Signing, taking photos, Zheng XX cooperated throughout the process. Only after all of Lu Yao’s requests were met did Zheng XX politely leave. “Don’t you have anything you want to say to me?” “say what?” “He’s a star.” “I am still his financial sponsor.” “You?! You invested in the entertainment industry?” Lu Yao was surprised. You know, the entertainment industry is quite complicated, not to mention that this is Hong Kong. If everything goes to waste, even the Lu family, which is rich and powerful, will be hurt. “Do you know PHS?” “certainly.” Lu Yao said that he had also studied the successful model of Xiaolingtong, and it must be a genius marketing strategy. This is actually a classic case. My teacher brought the success of Xiaolingtong to the classroom, causing quite a bit of controversy. “It seems that you really don’t care about your own business.” Lu Yiming smiled and shook his head. The success of Xiaolingtong is not accidental, everything is carefully planned. The result was inevitable, but Lu Yiming did not expect that Lu Yao didn’t care about the family business at all in Paris. After all, the Lu Group is behind this, and you can find out if you pay attention. “you mean?” “On my first day at Lu’s, I set up an investment department. Xiaolingtong was the first business I invested in. It is currently being steadily promoted as the company’s main project.” “hiss…” Lu Yao really couldn’t believe it, was this true? You know, the word most often used by professors at the Paris Business School when evaluating Xiaolingtong is “business genius.” So, the professor’s praises were about Lu Yiming? His brother? Is this too exaggerated? If Lu Yiming hadn’t admitted it himself, and if Zheng XX hadn’t been present just now, Lu Yao really wouldn’t have believed it. “Nothing unexpected, it’s just a project.” “Are you really my brother?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… This is the second time I asked myself the same question since we met. “Okay, you are curious about why I have such a big influence in Hong Kong, so you don’t have to guess. These people are not mine, they are my partners.” “who?” “Do you know Zhuang Sheng?” “Zhuang Sheng from Wireless? Of course I know.” This is a legend in Hong Kong. A veteran top billionaire. Could it be that Zhuang Sheng and his brother were also… “Partnership.” “hiss…” Lu Yao took a deep breath. He was given so many surprises so early in the morning? No wonder Lu Yiming said he was not afraid of returning to the group. To be honest, Lu Yiming’s achievements alone may be something I will never be able to achieve in my lifetime. He posed no threat to Lu Yiming at all. “Don’t let your imagination run wild. I asked you to return home. It has nothing to do with these things.” Looking at Lu Yao with a dim look in her eyes, Lu Yiming naturally knew what she was thinking about. “What’s the meaning?” “You’ll know when you get back.” Half an hour later, the Maybach from last night stopped at the entrance of the hotel lobby on time. “Is this Zhuang Sheng’s car?” “Not too stupid.” Lu Yiming replied. “Hmph, show off.” Although I don’t know how Lu Yiming did all this. However, to Lu Yao, this smug expression really made him deserve a beating. At the same time, it also brought a lot of pressure. The brother who had always been a playboy in her eyes suddenly left her far behind. For Lu Yao, this time he was really stimulated. Chapter 174 Brothers and sisters work together to achieve great success “Miss Lu, you are not frightened, right?” Lu Yao never imagined that the legendary Hong Kong big shot would be so approachable. This is Zhuang Sheng’s mansion located halfway up the mountain. It gathers most of Hong Kong’s wealthy people. Even Lu Yao, who was used to big scenes, still seemed a little cautious when he set foot here for the first time. On the other hand, Lu Yiming was much more natural. At this moment, Lu Yao finally understood that the Lu Yiming in her memory had completely changed. “No, thank you for your help, Mr. Zhuang.” “Haha, this is what I should do. Don’t worry, Miss Lu, you will never see the person who hurt you again.” This double entendre not only comforted Lu Yao, but also told Lu Yiming the result. As for why they disappeared, everyone has a different understanding. “I hope it won’t cause you any trouble.” “Miss Lu, you’re joking. He’s just a gangster.” So what if he is Mr. Jiang’s henchman? Mr. Jiang turned against me just for a henchman? If this is true, Mr. Jiang will not be able to take the leading position. As for whether Mr. Jiang would resent Lu Yiming? Lu Yiming was even less worried about this. So what if I hate myself? After all, Mr. Jiang would never take the initiative to provoke me. Mr. Jiang knew very well that after 1997, there would be no place for social organizations in Hong Kong. The government has zero tolerance for this. If you want to live the rest of your life in peace, then don’t cause trouble again. Therefore, whether for Zhuang Sheng or Lu Yiming, this was just an episode. “I have to thank Mr. Zhuang this time, especially for the hardware support of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. We tried to reserve a supercomputer, but it took two years to queue up. If it weren’t for Mr. Zhuang’s face, I’m afraid we would have missed it.” “Haha, what are you talking about, Lu Sheng? I am also a shareholder of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology, so I have to do my part.” “Wait, you just mentioned Huaxia Longteng Network Technology?” At this moment, Lu Yao was more shocked. As for Huaxia Longteng Network Technology, Lu Yao knows it very well. The speed of the rise of this domestic technology upstart is astonishing. Not to mention anything else, just in recent times, a lot of news about Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology has suddenly emerged on the Internet. Even some foreign technology magazines have touted Huaxia Longteng Network Technology as a symbol of the rise of China’s Internet era. According to Lu Yao’s understanding, many big names in the foreign technology community are paying close attention to China Longteng Network Technology. Even my mentor is studying the operations of this company. Some of the classic cases are simply amazing. But now listening to the conversation between my brother and Zhuang Sheng, this Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology is actually also Lu Yiming’s masterpiece? this… This is too outrageous. “Huh? Miss Lu doesn’t know yet?” Zhuang Sheng was also surprised. He originally thought that they were a family. Lu Sheng had already informed Miss Lu about the matter of Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology. But now seeing Miss Lu’s surprised look, it seems like she knows nothing. “Ahem, I…” “It doesn’t matter. I brought her here today to let her know this.” Lu Yiming looked calm, as if it was not a big deal. “So, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is really related to you?” “Very rare?” “I…” How could it not be strange? It’s really shocking. What did Lu Yiming do in the two years that he was away? Could it be that he was possessed by someone? This is definitely not something a playboy would do. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Well, I have to say that my sister’s guess is really close to the truth. Indeed, I was possessed, or rather, I was possessed by my own self 40 years later. “Okay, let’s talk about this later. I just want to prove one thing. You can put aside all your worries and live your life as you envisioned.” “Are you trying to tell me that you really don’t plan to take over the group?” “Ahem, I was originally prepared, but after meeting you this time, I changed my mind. If you are really capable, I don’t mind letting you go. After all, my energy is limited, and the Lu Group is my father’s life’s work, so it must not fall into the hands of outsiders. After thinking about it, maybe you are the best candidate.” Lu Yiming’s words were not a whim, but the result of thinking about it all night. Yes, Lu Yiming has a lot of things he wants to do in the future. But a person’s energy is limited. The development of the Lu Group has reached a bottleneck period. Even with Lu Yiming’s ability, he will not be able to help the Lu Group’s reform and breakthroughs in a short period of time. What’s more, the internal strife within the Lu Group is far from over. Even Lu Yiming had only just gained a certain advantage. But it is impossible for Lu Yiming to spend more energy fighting those old foxes. Instead of this, it would be better to let Lu Yao take over. If Lu Yao really has such ability, Lu Yiming would be happy to see it happen. Of course, if Lu Yao is really unable to do it, Lu Yiming is also capable of turning the tide. Why not let Lu Yao exercise a bit? “Are you really willing to let go? Do you trust me so much?” “What’s your problem?” Facing Lu Yao’s question, Lu Yiming looked amused. After all, blood is thicker than water. The blood flowing in the bodies of these two people is the Lu family. Besides, Lu Yiming just doesn’t care about the market management of the Lu Group, but Lu Yiming will still have a share in the future shares. For Lu Yiming, why not? It would not be good for me to control the Lu Group by force, right? “Lu Yiming, you really…” “Can you please stop being so hypocritical? If you can do it, go ahead. If you can’t, I’ll clean up the mess. We are a family.” A family. This word, at this moment, was deeply engraved in Lu Yao’s mind. Yes, no matter how we fought in the past, we are still a family after all. Why can’t I get over it? It turned out that Lu Yiming had always regarded himself as an older brother, but he just didn’t see it clearly. “Hmph, don’t worry, you will never see the day when you can turn the tide.” “We’ll see.” At this moment, the brother and sister may have really put aside their past grudges. Of course, for Lu Yao, the new challenge has just begun. It is not an easy task to deal with those old foxes. “Haha, I envy you guys. Brothers and sisters working together can accomplish anything.” Zhuang Sheng felt a little emotional. It’s good to have a family. Unlike himself, he has to rely on himself to get to where he is today. As for his two sons, it’s better not to mention them. He is a well known playboy and doesn’t care about the family business at all. What will happen to the industry he has worked hard for all his life in the future has always been a headache for Zhuang Sheng. Looking at the two people in front of him, Zhuang Sheng was really envious. Chapter 175: Beauty is a disaster? What is Lu Yao’s ability? Lu Yiming knows nothing for the time being, after all, the brother and sister were like strangers in their previous life. But at least Lu Yao was able to get a degree from the Paris Business School ahead of time, which was truly remarkable. It’s good to come back, at least there’s something to look forward to with my dad. Some people also drank Aunt Zhang’s soup. “I need to go back and clean up.” Now that the decision has been made, Lu Yao doesn’t hesitate. I was about to go back to the rental house to pack my luggage. “I’ll accompany you.” “No need, I’m not a child.” “If it weren’t for me…” “Stop, yesterday was just an accident.” This may be the topic that Lu Yao is most reluctant to mention. Not only was her hard earned disguise as a good girl completely exposed, but most importantly, she was almost… “Mr. Lu, just let my people accompany Miss Lu.” “Okay, thank you for your help.” Lu Yao was determined, so Lu Yiming didn’t want to insist too much. Even siblings need private space. It would be great if Zhuang Sheng was willing to help. After Lu Yao left, Zhuang Sheng poured Lu Yiming a glass of whiskey. “Drinking so early in the morning?” “As a personal habit, a glass of whiskey in the morning helps me stay clear headed.” “What does Zhuang Sheng want to say?” Drinking for no reason? In Lu Yiming’s opinion, Zhuang Sheng should have something to say, and drinking is the best choice for men to discuss business. Many business deals are negotiated over dinner. “Not really, Lu Sheng, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology has brought me quite a surprise, but…” Zhuang Sheng wanted to say something but stopped. “Zhuang Sheng, speak frankly.” As expected, there was something going on. Zhuang Sheng seemed to be hesitant to speak, which made Lu Yiming frown slightly. If even Zhuang Sheng finds it troublesome, one can imagine how difficult it is for Lu Yiming. “Lu Sheng, Miss Su is also in Hong Kong.” “Hmm? What a coincidence?” Zhuang Sheng suddenly changed the subject. Su Rongrong came to Hong Kong. What is the connection between the two? “Miss Su may have encountered some trouble.” As soon as Zhuang Sheng finished speaking, Lu Yiming’s brows furrowed. “What’s the meaning?” “At the last investment promotion conference in the mainland, some people regretted it.” “Zhuang Sheng, if I remember correctly, what Xiangjiang cares about most is the spirit of contract.” Lu Yiming shook the wine glass in his hand. I couldn’t tell the expression on his face. I started to guess in my mind. Could it be that the person who wanted to break the contract had a past relationship with Zhuang Sheng? Zhuang Sheng wants to act as a “peacemaker”? If this is true, it would be a bit troublesome. Lu Yiming knew very well that Zhuang Sheng had a very thorough understanding of the ways of the world. I would never be so foolish as to interfere in this matter. But this time, Zhuang Sheng actually spoke in front of him. seem… “Yes, we did sign a contract, but it was a strategic agreement, not a contract.” Zhuang Sheng smiled bitterly. To be honest, he didn’t want to mention this matter in front of Lu Yiming. After all, the cooperation between him, Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong was very pleasant. The three parties also maintained a good personal relationship. If I intervene in this matter, no matter what the result is, it will affect the relationship between me and Su Rongrong. As for Lu Yiming, Zhuang Sheng was an experienced person and knew that if he really offended Su Rongrong, it would be equivalent to offending Lu Yiming. This is what Zhuang Sheng doesn’t want to see. However, the person who asked for favor this time had a different status in Hong Kong, and many bigwigs had received his “favor” to varying degrees. The same was true when Zhuang Sheng was young. Given my status, I have to repay this favor. Lu Yiming had come to me on his own initiative, so I could just take the opportunity to test his will. “Zhuang Sheng, I am curious about who it is that could make you so afraid.” “It’s not fear, it’s respect.” Zhuang Sheng smiled bitterly, raised his glass and clinked it with Lu Yiming, then drank half a glass of whiskey in one gulp. “You don’t have to guess, it’s Mr. Ouyang.” “Ouyang Lin’s grandfather?” “Exactly.” After the mystery was solved, Lu Yiming frowned. “What’s going on?” This matter actually involves Old Man Ouyang, no wonder Zhuang Sheng feels it is difficult. Mr. Ouyang has a very high status in Hong Kong. How to say it. Just like what Zhuang Sheng introduced just now, Mr. Ouyang is a righteous man and is willing to support the younger generation. Especially the younger generations in the business world, they have all received more or less help from Grandpa Ouyang. Back then, the Ouyang family was a giant in Hong Kong. It is said to control half of Hong Kong. The Ouyang family is more than just one of the four major families in Hong Kong. Seeing that he supported the Chinese Chief Inspector to take office, one can imagine how powerful Mr. Ouyang was in Hong Kong back then. It can be said that Mr. Ouyang of that era represented the entire Hong Kong. The other three families combined cannot compete with Old Man Ouyang. Not to mention Zhuang Sheng. Fortunately, Mr. Ouyang is a savvy businessman. Understand the principle of harmony. Even though he could cover the sky with one hand, Mr. Ouyang still maintained the “fast lane” of Hong Kong’s rapid development. Just for this reason, in Lu Yiming’s opinion, Mr. Ouyang is very remarkable. Although the Ouyang family is not as powerful as before, its status in Hong Kong is still high. It can be said that as long as Old Man Ouyang is around, the Ouyang family will still be the same Ouyang family. There are many favors that you can never repay in your lifetime. “Mr. Zhuang, I’m not very clear about the details of the investment promotion meeting.” “I know. Alas, beauty is always the root of trouble. Ahem, bah, bah, bah. Miss Su is not the root of trouble.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… What happened with Ouyang Lin? The whole thing is quite speechless. At the last investment promotion conference, Gaoyuan Capital was the organizer, and Su Rongrong naturally served as the temporary host of the entire conference. The bigwigs in Hong Kong are also willing to invest in the mainland and express their attitudes at the same time. Naturally, the four major families in Hong Kong would not miss this opportunity. Each of them sent an agent. As for why the Ouyang family sent Ouyang Lin? To be honest, this opportunity was obtained by Ouyang Lin’s hard begging. Young Master Ouyang has been thinking about Su Rongrong ever since he saw her, who looked like a fairy from heaven, at TVB’s anniversary celebration. Just this glimpse of beauty is enough to make me dream about it every night. All of a sudden, the beauties around Young Master Ouyang no longer had the same appeal to Ouyang Lin as before. My mind is full of Su Rongrong’s beautiful image. This time, the investment promotion conference was organized by Su Rongrong. After Ouyang Lin got the news, he naturally didn’t want to miss it. Although Ouyang Lin is a well known playboy in the family, his last name is Ouyang after all. If a prodigal son can really return to his roots, it would be a good thing. The old man was careless for a moment and really let Ouyang Lin represent the Ouyang family to attend the last investment promotion conference. Chapter 176 Short sighted After Ouyang Lin saw Su Rongrong, he naturally couldn’t control his feelings and always wanted to show off in front of his sweetheart. The red line that the family originally drew for Ouyang Lin was just a limited test. The most important thing is to test the Chinese government’s attitude towards Hong Kong businessmen. This is what the Ouyang family cares most about. But Ouyang Lin was different. After meeting Su Rongrong, he quickly forgot the advice of his elders. Of course, Lu Yiming also contributed a lot to this. Why do you say that? During the key investment promotion conferences, Lu Yiming was always there to protect Su Rongrong. This left Ouyang Lin with no chance of success. Su Rongrong herself is not interested in a playboy like Ouyang Lin. This dealt an unprecedented blow to Young Master Ouyang’s self esteem. After all, he is a famous playboy in Hong Kong. Ouyang Lin was very unhappy because he was repeatedly humiliated in front of Su Rongrong. In order to attract Su Rongrong’s attention, Ouyang Lin finally decided to do something big. Ouyang Lin simply ignored the advice of his elders at home. Su Rongrong values business, right? Okay, I’ll give you a price that you, Su Rongrong, can’t refuse. It depends on how you, Su Rongrong, refuse. So, under Su Rongrong’s help, Ouyang Lin got carried away and signed a strategic agreement with a local real estate development company in Shanghai. Jointly develop three plots of land in Lujiazui area. The total investment is 8 billion. This also became the most successful cooperation in the entire investment promotion conference. After signing the contract, Ouyang Lin thought that he could have sex with the lady with the help of this strategic contract. result… After signing his name, Ouyang Lin never found Su Rongrong again. It’s not that Su Rongrong did this on purpose, the key point is that the entire investment promotion conference was organized by Su Rongrong herself. Of course there is still a lot to do. After the highlight, there is loss. Officials from the local government of Shanghai were naturally delighted with this big contract. With the entry of the Hong Kong boss, it is naturally great news. At that moment, several officials took turns accompanying Ouyang Lin, and he enjoyed unprecedented treatment. However, when Ouyang Lin woke up, he had a hard time expressing his feelings. The total investment of the project is 8 billion, and the Ouyang family needs to come up with 3.7 billion, which… The authority given to him by the family was just exploratory in nature. After returning to Hong Kong, Ouyang Lin tremblingly handed the strategic agreement to the old man, and almost sent him away on the spot. Although the Ouyang family is one of the four major families, financially, it is not their strong point. Besides, during this period of time, the Ouyang family has invested most of its funds in other projects. Where can we get so much money in such a short time? The angry old man used the cane in his hand to give Ouyang Lin a severe lesson on the spot. But even if we fight, the problem still needs to be resolved. Where does 3.7 billion come from? You know, in today’s Shanghai, there is still a popular saying that “I would rather have a bed in Puxi than a house in Pudong.” In other words, no one can tell what the future of Pudong will be like. Invest huge amounts of money in the development of Pudong. In the eyes of many bosses, this is just a waste of money. This is a big gamble. After evaluation, it was found that the three strategically developed territories were likely to lose all the money invested. Only then did Ouyang Lin realize that he had caused a huge disaster. “So, Mr. Ouyang has changed his mind?” Lu Yiming’s expression at this moment was really too wonderful. Lujiazui, Pudong. Not to mention the Magic City, even if we look at the Asia Pacific region, Lujiazui’s future is a well deserved financial center. It can only be said that the Ouyang family was short sighted and missed the opportunity to rise again. Although, this is not easy money. But no matter who it is, once involved, the future benefits will be terrifying. I can only say that Su Rongrong has a very good vision and she fell in love with this project at first sight. The only pity is that the Su family had an agreement before and could not enter the Magic City market. Otherwise, what is the point of the Ouyang family? The Su family alone can fill this 3.7 billion hole. “Zhuang Sheng, what does Mr. Ouyang mean now?” “Void the agreement.” “What stage has the project reached?” “Groundbreaking.” “this…” Even a fool knows that once the ground is broken, there is no turning back. It is definitely not a wise choice for the Ouyang family to terminate the agreement now. “Lu Sheng, no one is optimistic about this project. To tell you the truth, the Ouyang family has made some attempts, but several banks with good relationships are not willing to lend money to the Ouyang family.” Zhuang Sheng also learned some of the inside story. Although it is just the surface, it already represents the thoughts of the vast majority of people. “The Ouyang family wants to get something for nothing by transferring the risk to the bank. It’s a good plan.” With just one sentence, Lu Yiming revealed Mr. Ouyang’s wishful thinking. This also made Zhuang Sheng laugh and cry. What does it mean to see through something but not say it out loud? Lu Sheng didn’t give Grandpa Ouyang any face at all. Yes, anyone with a little bit of common sense can see the strange behavior of the Ouyang family. I clearly have no confidence in the project. Want to transfer the risk. But banks are not fools. Even if the relationship is good, the bank cannot take such a risk. The Ouyang family wanted to cash out by mortgaging the contract, but it was impossible for the bank to approve it. What’s more, this is a project that even Mr. Ouyang himself is not optimistic about. Only a fool would be willing to take over. If you make money, it belongs to your Ouyang family. Once you lose money, the Ouyang family will just throw up their hands. Do you really treat the bank as a charity for the sake of a ten point profit by taking such a big risk? “Well, the key lies in the contract itself.” Zhuang Sheng smiled bitterly, this contract involved too many aspects. The Shanghai government is involved in this. If it is not properly resolved, I am afraid… It’s not just the Ouyang family that will be implicated, many people will be implicated. Even all previous efforts may be in vain. This is a result that no one wants to see. “But the Ouyang family still came to this point.” In Lu Yiming’s opinion, even though they knew the seriousness of the consequences, the Ouyang family still chose to give up for the sake of their own interests. Otherwise, Su Rongrong would not have rushed to Hong Kong in a hurry. You know, Gaoyuan Capital is also involved in this contract. If something goes wrong, Gaoyuan Capital will not be able to remain immune. “Lu Sheng, how do you think this matter will end?” “What does Zhuang Sheng mean?” “I’m not afraid of being laughed at by Lu Sheng. I really don’t want to care, but now, I’m tied to a boat by the Ouyang family and can’t get off.” This time, the Ouyang family might lose all the favors they had earned in the past. “3.7 billion.” For Lu Yiming, the amount of money is too large. Even if Lu Yiming is willing, he is probably powerless. unless… “Mr. Zhuang, please contact Mr. Ouyang. I would like to visit him.” “Have you really thought it through?” “Everything depends on human effort.” Chapter 177 The Resolute Female Boss “Boss Su, Mr. Ouyang’s schedule has been arranged.” The assistant followed behind Su Rongrong and had to jog a few steps from time to time to barely keep up with Su Rongrong’s pace. “when?” “It’s 4 p.m., and we have half an hour.” “knew.” What does it mean to be resolute and decisive? What Su Rongrong is showing at this moment is the true state of a strong woman. During this period, President Su’s aura has become increasingly stronger. I have obviously done my best, but I still pursue 100% perfection. Since Mr. Su took over as Vice President of Gaoyuan Capital, every project has brought great surprises. This can be perfectly reflected in your quarterly bonuses. This is 200 percent higher than last year. This bonus alone has made countless people in the industry envious. But what comes with it is the ever increasing pressure. It seems like Mr. Su never knows what “tired” means. I learned that there was a problem with the project in the morning and I was already at the Hong Kong Airport at noon. All I can say is that as Mr. Su’s assistant, you must be prepared to go on business trips at any time. “Boss Su, how about we go to the hotel first?” “To Central.” “ah?” “This suit is not solemn enough. Mr. Ouyang has a very high status in Hong Kong.” Although it was the Ouyang family who wanted to break the contract, the necessary respect should not be forgotten. Often details determine success or failure. “Boss Su, what brand do you need? I’ll make a strategy in advance.” “Need not.” Su Rongrong doesn’t pay attention to brands, but she has to be decent. After all, Su Rongrong’s name represents a lot of things. The external is nothing more than a respect. The two took a taxi and headed straight to Central. Here, most of the world’s first line brands are gathered. The assistant said that it was an eye opener for him. Su always buys a six figure suit without blinking an eye. I just took a quick look and chose the most suitable one. I’m afraid I’ll never be able to learn this kind of calmness and composure in my lifetime. “There is also this set, go try it.” “I have a share, too?” The assistant was completely stunned by the unexpected surprise. “Forgot what I just told you?” “No, it’s just…” Although the assistant’s salary is not small, going in and out of such luxury stores still brings considerable pressure. In the assistant’s opinion, a brand name bag is enough to make him excited for a long time. After all, a bag can be matched with many outfits, and with a price tag of tens of thousands, I just gritted my teeth and bought it. But the clothes are really not up to this level. “I’ll give you a ride.” “This… How can this be so embarrassing, Mr. Su…” “In a hurry.” Su Rongrong looked at her watch and said. “Okay, I’ll try it now.” Assistant: o(  ̄▽ ̄ )ブ Made a profit. With such business trip benefits, no wonder everyone envies me. A suit worth more than one hundred thousand yuan looks really different when worn on oneself. “Boss Su.” “Not bad, this one.” The assistant came out of the fitting room. Su Rongrong just took a glance and made the decision. “Swipe the card.” This allows the assistant to experience the happiness of being rich. “Time is tight, just wear this one.” Although it was high end custom made, it was not Su Rongrong’s character to wear it without washing it first. It was just that time was tight and there was no time to deal with it. After cutting off the tag, the two went straight back to the hotel they had booked. “Give me the file.” “Boss Su, you haven’t eaten anything this morning. How about I go to the restaurant and order food for you?” The assistant was extremely hungry, but Su Rongrong was still paying attention to the contract. He deserves to be the boss. The level of dedication to this job alone is something I cannot compare to. “A bowl of noodles, which will be delivered to your room later.” “Okay.” The assistant quickly agreed. Su Rongrong took the contract handed to her by the assistant and returned to her room. For Su Rongrong, this was an emergency. I was used to smooth sailing. Once an unexpected event occurs, if it is not handled properly, it will be an “earthquake” for Gaoyuan Capital. The projects involved are simply too big. Early this morning, Su Rongrong received a call from Mr. Zhang. On the phone, Mr. Zhang sounded anxious. This was the first time that Su Rongrong saw another side of Mr. Zhang. Su Rongrong was solely responsible for this investment promotion conference. Behind the halo of success, there are bound to be countless “crises”. However, no one expected that the crisis would come so quickly. You know, with Su Rongrong’s strong support, Gaoyuan Capital also invested 200 million yuan in the project. This is still the upper limit that Party A can accept. The government has also worked very hard for this project. The district government has shown enough sincerity and provided resources and policies. However, at the critical moment of breaking ground, such a problem arose. Fortunately, only Mr. Zhang and myself know about this matter now. If the news gets out, I’m afraid… “The dandy is indeed unreliable.” Lu Yiming’s face flashed through Su Rongrong’s mind unconsciously. This made Su Rongrong’s originally serious expression even colder. Why did I think of this guy again? It has been such a long time since we last parted at the company. But Lu Yiming’s figure would appear in Su Rongrong’s mind from time to time. I warned myself again and again, but in the end I found that it was all in vain. I don’t know when it started, but Lu Yiming seemed to have moved into my heart. “This bastard.” The little expression of gritting teeth is so cute. This is no longer the powerful and majestic woman in the eyes of her assistants. She’s obviously just a tsundere little woman. As for the culprit Ouyang Lin. Uh, sorry, Su Rongrong can’t remember what Ouyang Lin looks like now. Anyway, like Lu Yiming, they are all playboys. Ouyang Lin: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I feel like I’m not even as good as an average passerby. “Boss Su, your face.” “Put it down.” The assistant brought the noodles, but Su Rongrong had no appetite at the moment. The contract clearly stipulated a breach of contract clause, but Mr. Ouyang actually risked breach of contract and decided to terminate the contract. Once the news gets out, it will be quite unfavorable for the development of Lujiazui. It may even cause a bandwagon effect. “call…” No matter what, I need to convince Mr. Ouyang. But this task is too arduous. At this moment, Su Rongrong’s phone rang. Su Yunchang’s call. “Are you in trouble? Do you need me to mediate?” “No, it’s better not to interfere in this matter.” “Okay, contact me as soon as you need me.” After politely declining her father’s kindness, Su Rongrong leaned back on the sofa and closed her eyes to rest. As for Su Yunchang, he looked at the phone in his hand with a helpless look on his face. I don’t know if it’s a lucky thing to have a daughter who is strong in everything. If possible, Su Yunchang really hopes that his daughter will not be so independent. You have to rely on yourself for everything, which is also one of the joys of being a father. Chapter 178 Betting on the future? “Sister Lu Yao.” Lu Yao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I just came back to get my luggage. Looking at Ding Man in front of him, Lu Yao really didn’t know what to say. “You shaved your head?” “Um.” Well, the original spirited guy is gone. Ding Man now has a crew cut and looks like he just came out of jail. But it is indeed much more pleasing to the eye. All the extra accessories on his body were taken off. “Sister Mary said I’m not fit for society.” “indeed.” Lu Yao nodded. It was not bad. He felt that he had saved a misguided teenager. “Ms. Lu, thank you so much.” The landlady was more than ecstatic about the change in her son. Yes, my son has changed so much in just one night. Last night was the first time I came home so early. However, his distraught look really made the landlady worried the whole night. I was afraid that my son had gotten into big trouble outside. As a result, he disappeared early in the morning, and the landlady thought that his old behavior had recurred. As a result, half an hour later, the changed son gave the landlady a big surprise. My son has just expressed to me that he wants to pick up his books again. Although I can’t go back to school, the community college in Hong Kong is also good. If I am more motivated, I can take the adult examination, so I am not completely without hope. And all these changes are thanks to Lu Yao. Facing Lu Yao again, the landlady was so excited that she didn’t know what to do. I had misjudged her. Miss Lu is of very noble status. Just look at the two men in black suits following her. This is definitely the rhythm of a runaway princess. I had been dreaming that my son could develop a relationship with Miss Lu, but now when I think about it, I feel ashamed. A princess falling in love with a poor boy? This kind of plot only happens in movies. There’s no way Miss Lu belongs here. After seeing Miss Lu off, the landlady didn’t know what to say when she looked at her silent son. “Mom, I’ve decided. I’ll go sign up this afternoon.” It seemed that Timon had made an important decision. In Timon’s eyes, Tyrannosaurus is already a well known figure in the society. However, everything that happened last night was like a slap in the face, completely waking Ding Man up. So what if they are the club’s red flower double sticks? In the eyes of the rich, he is still just a low class gangster in society. Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. This kind of statement is just what you say to yourself. There is no future for being in society. It is far from the majestic life that I had longed for before. If you work hard now, maybe it’s not too late. What is majesty? Just look at Lu Yao’s brother last night and you’ll know. One sentence can decide the life or death of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. This is the real big shot. At this time, Su Rongrong in the hotel finally put down the contract in her hand. If the Ouyang family withdraws from the project, both parties may suffer huge losses. This is definitely something Su Rongrong doesn’t want to see. However, how to convince Mr. Ouyang is a difficult problem facing Su Rongrong. Su Rongrong is indeed optimistic about the future of Lujiazui Center, but who can absolutely guarantee it? Understand that policies are constantly changing. “Huh… what time is it?” “Boss Su, it’s almost 3 o’clock.” The assistant glanced at the time and replied. “Let’s call a taxi.” “Boss Su, how about eating something first?” The assistant took a look at the noodles that had swelled into a lump. Mr. Su didn’t move at all. “Not hungry.” Su Rongrong stood up and adjusted her skirt. What Su Rongrong was most concerned about was how to convince Mr. Ouyang. And at this moment, in the Ouyang family’s villa halfway up the mountain. “Lu Sheng, are you so sure?” Looking at the handsome young man in front of him, Mr. Ouyang sighed, it is true that every generation has talented people who lead the trend for hundreds of years. After meeting Lu Yiming, Mr. Ouyang realized that he was really old. “It’s not that I have confidence in my own vision, but that I have confidence in the future of my motherland.” Lu Yiming sat in front of Mr. Ouyang. Even when facing a legendary figure from Hong Kong, Lu Yiming’s aura was not inferior at all. This courage alone made Zhuang Sheng, who was standing by, admire him very much. You know, when I first met Mr. Ouyang, I was very nervous. So many years have passed, but Zhuang Sheng still remembers the first time he met Mr. Ouyang. At that time, Mr. Ouyang asked a question and he answered it himself, not daring to make any unnecessary movements. When I was about to leave, I realized that I was so excited that I even forgot to drink my tea. But Lu Yiming was different. He could talk fluently and clearly in front of this person. Even if I was listening at the side, I couldn’t help but be fascinated. Zhuang Sheng had to admit that Lu Yiming had a strong grasp of the general trend. There were many aspects that I couldn’t see through, but after Lu Yiming’s guidance, it turned out to be true. “Lu Sheng, although what you said is correct, this involves an investment of more than 3 billion after all. For our Zhenhua Group, we must pay attention to it.” “Of course, no matter who you are, investments involving billions of dollars must be handled with extreme caution.” Lu Yiming naturally agreed with what Mr. Ouyang said. Even the Fortune 500 companies cannot remain indifferent to such a huge amount of funds. It’s just that the Ouyang family sent a playboy to the investment conference. After seeing Su Rongrong, I couldn’t even walk. For such a large scale investment, without any preliminary investigation and analysis, he signed the memorandum of cooperation on behalf of the group just to show off in front of Su Rongrong. No wonder Lu Yiming didn’t see Ouyang Lin when he came to the house today. He must have been severely beaten up. But for Lu Yiming, Ouyang Lin was just an accident. An investment of several billion is really nothing. After twenty years, the return will probably be more than ten times. “Lu Sheng, your guesses alone cannot impress me.” “What if it’s a third party bet agreement?” Be prepared before Lu Yiming comes. As soon as he said this, the atmosphere changed immediately. “Um?” At this moment, Mr. Ouyang was completely moved. This young man is not just persuading himself. How dare you bring up a third party gambling agreement? This was clearly well prepared. Even Zhuang Sheng, who was standing by, was shocked. No way, Lu Sheng didn’t mention this before he came. “Lu Sheng, what are you betting on?” “How about 51% of the shares of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology?” “hiss…” “Lu Sheng, don’t get excited.” Old Mr. Ouyang took a breath of cold air, and Zhuang Sheng hurriedly tried to stop him. Just kidding, I don’t know the future of the Lujiazui project, but the future of China Longteng Network Technology is definitely worth looking forward to. Lu Yiming is simply crazy to use 51% of the shares of Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology to make a bet agreement! Even if Miss Su is your sweetheart, there is no need to give up your entire fortune, right? This is no longer helping, but gambling with your own future. this… Chapter 179 The Unauthentic Mr. Ouyang “Lu Sheng, you are…ah…” On the way back, Zhuang Sheng didn’t know how to evaluate Lu Yiming. Lu Yiming is the most talented businessman he has ever met. Far sighted and resourceful. But it turns out that as long as one is human, he or she will have weaknesses. Miss Su is Lu Yiming’s weak spot. The future of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is limitless. However, in order to help Miss Su, Lu Yiming actually bet 51% of the shares of Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology. This is really too risky. “Zhuang Sheng thinks I’m crazy?” “you…” Originally, Zhuang Sheng wanted to say, Young man, please be more careful. But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back. “Have you ever seen me doing business at a loss, Mr. Zhuang?” “Lu Sheng, what do you mean?” “Within a year, Mr. Ouyang will regret his decision.” A smile appeared on Lu Yiming’s face. It seemed like I suffered a great loss, but in fact, I made a lot of money. Perhaps no one could have imagined that the land price in Lujiazui would skyrocket exponentially. That means Lu Yiming lived one more life, otherwise… And now at Ouyang’s house. “This boy is not something that can be kept in the pond. Once he encounters wind and clouds, he will turn into a dragon. Alas…” If this compliment from Mr. Ouyang were to be spread, it would definitely cause a huge disturbance. Who was the last person to be praised like this by the old man? It seems to be the one from the Li family. He started from scratch and squeezed into the ranks of the four major families. Could it be that another business tycoon is about to arrive? “Dad, is Huaxia Longteng Network Technology really that valuable?” The Ouyang family’s business is all in the physical industry, and they are not too familiar with the Internet. “You, your vision is not as good as an old guy like me.” Old Man Ouyang pointed at his son, looking disappointed. The second generation of the Ouyang family was good at maintaining the status quo but lacked the ability to explore new areas. The old man had long seen the future of technology. A future that was big enough and profitable enough was in front of him, but he was unaware of it. “Since Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is so good, why did Lu Sheng do this?” “Since ancient times, heroes have been unable to resist the temptation of beautiful women. I am more interested in Miss Su.” Old Man Ouyang smiled slightly. It seemed that Lu Sheng was very optimistic about the future of the Lujiazui site. The future of the group needs to be re examined. “Dad, what about this gambling agreement? ” “Sign. No matter what the future holds, risks must be shared. I still say that I would rather earn less than put all my eggs in one basket.” Old Master Ouyang thought for a moment and made the final decision. “It seems that the brat just happened by chance.” The third son of the Ouyang family said with a smile. This is Ouyang Lin’s father. This time Ouyang Lin caused a big disaster. As a father, he was naturally furious and confined his rebellious son to the house. But after all, he is my son, and I will always feel sorry for him. The opportunity was good, so he took the chance to say a few good words for his son. “snort…” As a result, the old man snorted coldly, and it seemed that he was still angry. Even though the Lujiazui site has a promising future, the old man is completely disappointed with this grandson. Especially when compared with Lu Yiming, the gap is not small at all. If the group were handed over to Ouyang Lin, it would not be long before the Ouyang family would withdraw from the list of the four major families. “By the way, keep your mouth shut. Since Lu Sheng doesn’t want Miss Su to know about the gambling agreement, don’t let it slip.” The old man gave a special instruction. At the appointed time, Su Rongrong and her assistant arrived at Ouyang’s house ten minutes early. The timing was just right. It also made Old Man Ouyang look at Su Rongrong with new eyes. As expected, he was trained by a century old family. He does things flawlessly and there is nothing to fault with him. Before this, Mr. Ouyang had someone investigate Su Rongrong’s background. But I didn’t expect that the other party’s background was so powerful. The Su family’s economic power is not inferior to that of the four major families, and their domestic connections are far beyond the reach of the Ouyang family. If the Ouyang family could have such an ally to help them in the mainland, any business they could do in the future would be able to develop. “Dad, Miss Su is here.” “Please invite the guests in quickly.” Old Master Ouyang was even waiting in the reception area, leaning on a cane. In Hong Kong, the number of guests who can enjoy such courtesy from the old man can be counted on one hand. “Meet Mr. Ouyang.” “Haha, good, good, you are really extraordinary, Miss Su, we have known each other for a long time.” Old Man Ouyang has lived for most of his life and has seen all kinds of women. However, when I saw Su Rongrong for the first time, I was still a little dazed. His eyes were full of admiration. Now I finally understand why my disappointing grandson made such a ridiculous decision. I finally understand why a talented person like Lu Yiming would stand up for Su Rongrong. “Thank you, Mr. Ouyang. I came here in a hurry this time, so please don’t blame me.” “Haha, come on, sit down.” Old Master Ouyang politely invited Su Rongrong to take a seat. Half an hour later. Su Rongrong’s expression remained unchanged, but she was filled with doubt and uncertainty. What’s the meaning? Is this all a misunderstanding? The Ouyang family had no intention of withdrawing their investment. Could it be that the news was wrong? No, I have confirmed again and again that the group controlled by the Ouyang family does have plans to withdraw its investment. At this time, Su Rongrong was a little confused. From what he said, Mr. Ouyang was very optimistic about the future of Shanghai’s economy, and he was even more confident about the real estate industry in Shanghai. In this case, how could the Ouyang family withdraw its investment? Is it possible that there is a problem within the group? But if you think about it carefully, the Ouyang family has absolute controlling rights. this… Although she couldn’t understand it, Su Rongrong had already felt the sincerity shown by the Ouyang family. The two sides had a friendly conversation and exchanged views sincerely. Su Rongrong even described the future of the Lujiazui site. “Miss Su has a unique vision. I admire her for that.” “The old man is the role model for our generation.” “Haha, there’s no need for us to flatter each other. Let’s prepare a dinner later. Miss Su has come from afar, so she must give me some face.” “I dare not refuse the gift given by the elders.” “Haha, good, good.” Old Master Ouyang said “good” three times in a row. It can be seen that he is quite satisfied with Su Rongrong. The old man even secretly ordered someone to release Ouyang Lin, who was under house arrest. If this brat can really get Su Rongrong, he will have someone to rely on for the rest of his life. Everything depends on human efforts. Although the competitors are strong, the old man still hopes that his grandson can seize this opportunity. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… This old man is so unkind that he actually wants to steal the house. Chapter 180 Ouyang Lin is really stupid “Are you ready? It’s time to go back.” When Lu Yiming returned to the hotel, Lu Yao had also returned. I have to say, in just these two days, the relationship between the brother and sister seems to have changed a lot. “Okay.” Lu Yao didn’t know that his future had completely changed. “Why are you looking at me like that?” “Are you really my brother?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “So, you can’t even recognize your own brother, right?” The ‘vicious’ look made Lu Yao find the shadow of the past in Lu Yiming. “Keep that look, and I’ll feel more at ease.” Well, the conversation between the brother and sister was really outrageous, and Zhuang Sheng on the side was even more amused and helpless. Although they have a good relationship, one can clearly feel the gap between them. But if you say their relationship is not good, Lu Yiming is so angry for his sister. Something happened to the Red Flower Double Sticks in the society, but they managed to suppress the matter. Lu Yiming owed Zhuang Sheng a huge favor. What businessmen are most reluctant to owe is a debt of favor. Although Zhuang Sheng would not threaten Lu Yiming with this, what about the future? No one knows. “I’ve already contacted him. When you return, you will join the Lu Group. Of course, you’ll start as an assistant.” “Assistant? Could it be…” “Yes, that’s me.” “Lu Yiming, you did it on purpose!” Lu Yao looked disdainful and asked, “Why should I be your assistant?” “Haha, then show us your results.” “I…” “It’s great that I’m willing to take you in. My requirements for my assistant are quite high.” Isn’t Cheng Xiao a ready made example? Now Cheng Xiao has perfectly taken on the new position at Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. What Lu Yiming values is not qualifications, but ability. “Don’t worry, I’m not someone who can’t distinguish between public and private affairs.” “I hope so.” Lu Yao snorted. If it were in the past, he would have refused to obey even if beaten to death. But this time, I didn’t feel much resistance in my heart. Lu Yao was still very curious about this “strange” brother of hers. She wondered what had caused such a huge change in her brother, who had always been a playboy in her heart. In addition, whether it is the Xiaolingtong project or the current Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology, Lu Yiming has demonstrated his vision and ability. This also aroused Lu Yao’s competitive spirit. I must not lose to Lu Yiming. “By the way, where’s my salary?” Although it sounds tacky to talk about benefits, the salary and benefits for being the assistant to Mr. Lu from the investment department of the Lu Group should not be low. “Haha, no.” “Lu Yiming, don’t go too far!” “Originally, I did. However, you borrowed so much money from Sister Qian, don’t you have to pay it back? I calculated it for you, and one year is just right.” “I…” Lu Yao felt as if his lifeline was pinched, his face turned red, but he couldn’t utter a word. What’s even more outrageous is that he actually booked an economy class ticket for his return flight. Miss Lu, when have you ever felt so wronged? The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Lu Yao rolled her eyes at Lu Yiming, gritted her teeth, dragged her luggage, and ignored Lu Yiming’s call. “Hey, this girl.” Lu Yiming smiled helplessly and decided to hone his skills. Can’t you stand this? You know, those senior executives in the group have all kinds of shady tricks. In Lu Yiming’s opinion, Lu Yao is too immature now. Not yet a qualified heir. As for Su Rongrong, she stayed at the Ouyang family for dinner. It can be seen that Mr. Ouyang attaches great importance to the guest Su Rongrong. Although it was just a family dinner, the scale was extraordinary. The black abalone from South Africa and the king crab from the Russian waters are both rare ingredients. As for Ouyang Lin, who was released, he accompanied Su Rongrong throughout the whole process. The service was extraordinary attentive. Of course, with the old man around, Ouyang Lin wouldn’t dare to do anything out of line. “Mr. Ouyang, I just came out to get some fresh air.” Su Rongrong felt helpless. This Ouyang Lin is like a dog skin plaster, always sticking to me. She even missed Lu Yiming in her heart. If only that bastard were still here, he would definitely help her get rid of unnecessary harassment. Su Rongrong: Wait, why did I think of Lu Yiming again? This bastard must be very happy now. I guess he has forgotten about himself a long time ago. After Su Rongrong invested in Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology, she naturally paid close attention to the latest developments of Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology. Of course, in Su Rongrong’s heart, she was purely concerned about the investment, not about anyone. Lu Yiming has been doing very well recently. After receiving investments from Gaoyuan Capital and Zhuang Sheng, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology has accelerated its pace. Compared to the troubles I encountered, things are naturally much smoother. Humph, you bastard! “Miss Su, it’s rare for you to come to Hong Kong. Otherwise, I will take you around tomorrow. Hong Kong’s nightlife is famous.” A dandy is a dandy, and he always talks about enjoying himself. Facing a dandy boy like Ouyang Lin, Su Rongrong really couldn’t give him a good face. “Mr. Ouyang, I have to rush back to the Magic City tomorrow, and I still have a lot of things to deal with.” “Ms. Su, actually, I originally wanted to persuade my grandfather. I am really optimistic about the future of the Lujiazui land. It is those old guys in the group who are short sighted.” Ouyang Lin knew in his heart that Su Rongrong would naturally look down on the playboy, so he tried his best to appear professional. But the embroidered belly is full of straw, and Ouyang Lin’s stock is not much, and it may be exposed in a minute. “Mr. Ouyang, you are joking. Your grandfather is very discerning.” “Miss Su, I know that if it weren’t for Lu Yiming this time, but I have been thinking of a way.” “Lu Yiming?” Wait, what does this have to do with Lu Yiming? “Did I mention that?” Ouyang Lin really wanted to slap himself twice. Was he stupid? Why did he mention Lu Yiming? Ouyang Lin naturally learned the whole story from his father. As for Ouyang Lin’s father, he forgot to tell his son not to mention the gambling agreement in front of Miss Su. After all, in Ouyang Lin’s father’s opinion, his son is not really stupid. It was obvious that Lu Yiming was his son’s “rival in love”. No matter how stupid his son was, he would not make such a low level mistake. But judging from the current situation, Ouyang Lin’s father obviously overestimated his son. “Mr. Ouyang, do you think I can’t find out?” “this…” 10 minutes later. “Sorry, Mr. Ouyang, I want to be alone.” Looking at the green plants blooming in the garden, Su Rongrong ordered them to leave. Chapter 181: Dog’s silent and affectionate personality “This guy.” Rarely, Su Rongrong did not call Lu Yiming a “dog”. But how did he know that something was wrong with him? Also, why did he come to Hong Kong? For a moment, Su Rongrong’s thoughts were a little confused. “He’s really willing to do that.” He actually used Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology as a bet. After all, I am one of the shareholders of Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology. Shouldn’t I be informed of this matter? Although it helped her a lot, Su Rongrong became angrier the more she thought about it. However, the expression on his face softened a lot. I have been cold to Lu Yiming for so long, but he actually helped me solve the problem at the first opportunity. Could it be that he really… Do you really like yourself? Su Rongrong: No, that’s absolutely not the case. This is the method used by a playboy. How could I be fooled so easily? Su Rongrong kept reminding herself in her heart that she must hold on to it. But once a crack appears, it may not be so easy to seal it again. “Boss Su, Mr. Ouyang wants you to go back.” “Okay, I understand.” Su Rongrong put away her thoughts. When facing Old Man Ouyang again, Su Rongrong no longer felt the gratitude she had felt before. Sure enough, in the business world, there is only absolute interest. The old man doesn’t completely believe in his own vision, but he is attracted by enough benefits. “Mr. Ouyang, it’s getting late. I’ll take my leave now.” “Haha, that’s fine. If you have time, Miss Su, you can come visit me often. Maybe we will have more opportunities to cooperate with each other.” “must.” The two of them were smiling on the surface. But deep down I had another idea. Mr. Ouyang wants to invest more assets in the mainland, but also wants to get a quick return on his investment. As for Su Rongrong, even if she wants to do business with the Ouyang family again in the future, she will have to think carefully about it. After all, in Su Rongrong’s opinion, the Ouyang family is not a trustworthy partner. After watching Su Rongrong leave. The old man’s originally smiling expression immediately turned a little gloomy. “Go, call Ouyang Lin.” It is said that grandparents are closer, but in the Ouyang family, family affection seems very weak. Old Master Ouyang has three sons, two daughters, and more than a dozen grandchildren. Ouyang Lin does not have a high status in the Ouyang family. Especially since he had all the bad habits of a playboy, the old man didn’t like this grandson. As for Ouyang Lin, seeing the old man was like a mouse seeing a cat. Outside, he is Ouyang the Little Overlord, but at home… Just like now, shrinking back and not daring to get too close. Seeing his grandson’s performance, Grandpa Ouyang became even more angry. “Tell me, did you offend Miss Su?” The old man noticed the subtle changes in Miss Su’s expression after she came in. He immediately began to suspect Ouyang Lin. My grandson is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything. “No, it’s unfair, Grandpa. Didn’t you just tell me to treat her with courtesy? I swear, I have never offended Miss Su.” “Did you say something you shouldn’t have said?” “I…really not. I will keep it a secret.” “hiss…” That was strange. My feeling was not wrong. Although Su Rongrong did not change much just now, I could definitely feel that she was trying to keep people at a distance. “Tell me, what did you say? Tell me everything.” “I…” Ten minutes later. “Pah…” Old man Ouyang slapped the table in front of him, scaring Ouyang Lin so much that he shuddered. It seems that I didn’t say anything wrong. “You…you…are an idiot, so stupid!” The old man was almost having a heart attack from being so angry. How could the Ouyang family’s genes produce such a fool? He actually leaked the gambling agreement between himself and Lu Yiming to Su Rongrong? Lu Yiming refused to say it because he was afraid that Su Rongrong would not accept his kindness. I didn’t say it because I didn’t want Su Rongrong to think that I was doing it purely for profit. Although this is indeed the case, there are many things that cannot be spoken out. But this grandson of mine is so stupid to the extreme. “This… Grandpa, you didn’t tell me not to talk about this. I just want to express my feelings in front of Miss Su. What Lu Yiming can do, I can do as well.” Ouyang Lin felt aggrieved. As expected, with this kind of brain, he is only suitable to be a playboy. “You… Phew, forget it, go back to your room.” Old Master Ouyang waved his hands weakly. No matter how much he said, it was all redundant and he couldn’t teach him. I have been working in the business world for my entire life, and now that I am old, I still have to worry about this. “I’m grounded again, Grandpa, I…” “Get out of here now!” “Okay.” Although he didn’t know what he had done to make his grandfather angry again, Ouyang Lin said that he had long been accustomed to it after being grounded so many times since he was a child. “Dad, do you think we should explain this to Miss Su?” There is always someone who understands, but it’s too late for this matter. “Forget it, there’s no point in explaining, just let it be.” The old man waved his hand, he was tired and lacked energy. Sooner or later, the world would belong to the young. After going out, Su Rongrong directly called Lu Yiming’s cell phone. However, what came out of the microphone was a busy tone. Going back? It is true, after the work is done, he leaves the body and hides his merits and fame. Damn it, you installed it on yourself. Su Rongrong gritted her teeth. An affectionate character who gives silently? I have to say, this time, it really stuck in Su Rongrong’s heart. No, I have to ask him in person. After all, the future of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is not just Lu Yiming’s business. “Boss Su, shall we go back to the hotel now?” “Get ready, we’re going back to the Magic City tonight.” “tonight?” this… The room was already booked, and the assistant looked helpless. It is really sad to meet such a boss. After all, this is a five star hotel. For an assistant, this is a rare enjoyment. But since Su Rongrong had spoken, the assistant dared not disobey. My heart was bleeding when I checked out of the room. Well, not a single penny can be refunded. There is a flight back to Shanghai, but it is a red eye flight, landing at 3 a.m., and by the time you leave the airport, it will probably be dawn. Assistant: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Wait, tomorrow is Friday, so we have to work around the clock. When the assistant thought about this, he said that his world was falling. “Have the driver pick you up at the airport. Also, you can take a taxi home after you get back. You’ve worked hard these past two days, so I’ll give you a day off.” “real?” “Don’t want to rest? That’s fine, then…” “No, thank you, President Su. I’ll take a rest. I will definitely take a good rest and will never let President Su down.” The assistant was instantly revived to full health. Friday plus the weekend, it’s definitely a long holiday. Sure enough, President Su is still very considerate of his subordinates. Assistant: ( ^_^ ) Chapter 182 Family Status Negative Level At the entrance of the villa located at No. 99 Xiangzhang Road, Lu Yao hesitated in front of the gate and took several deep breaths. “Are you scared now? It’s too late.” As soon as they got off the plane, Lu Yiming took Lu Yao home. This is without any psychological preparation. “Who said I was scared?” The king of tough talk. “Very good, I hope you can do the same in a while.” Lu Yiming glanced at Lu Yao who was being stubborn, and felt secretly happy. Not long after, God finally opened his eyes. From childhood to adulthood, Lu Yiming’s status in the family can be imagined. Lu Aijun follows the philosophical saying that a good son is made under the stick. Even at this age, he still wants to “exercise” from time to time. But for Lu Yao, it was the rhythm of pampering to the sky. If anyone is to blame, it can only be blamed on Lu Yao for being obedient since childhood and being a good girl in the eyes of her parents. He studies well and doesn’t cause trouble. In comparison, Lu Yiming, this playboy, is really a cause for concern. But this time, Lu Yao caused such a big trouble that Lu Yiming said that he must bring a stool and watch the show carefully. Well, who would have thought that Lu Yiming, who had lived an extra lifetime, would still be obsessed with this. How deep is this obsession? “Or I should go find Sister Qian. After all, I have to give an explanation for borrowing money.” Lu Yao, who had been stubborn just now, immediately backed down. “Haha, no need. I have already paid the money for you. Remember, I am your creditor now.” This time, Lu Yao really went too far. Lu Aijun was anxious and angry, and Zhang Qian was like a headless fly. If Lu Yiming hadn’t stepped forward to bring Lu Yao back, Lu Aijun and Zhang Qian would probably still be wandering around Europe. It’s time to clean up the lawless and run away playing princess. Lu Yiming would not miss this once in a lifetime opportunity. He grabbed Lu Yao who was trying to escape. Ring the doorbell at home. “Let go, you’re hurting me.” “Don’t try that. I won’t eat it.” “You… wuwuwu…” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Are you still crying? Haha, this time, even if you cry your heart out, no one will help you. I guess dad has already prepared the family heirloom feather duster. Lu Yiming couldn’t suppress the upturned corners of his mouth when he thought about it. In Lu Yao’s eyes, this smile was definitely gloating. As expected, the character of a good brother does not exist at all. His true colors were revealed as soon as he returned to the Magic City! Just as Lu Yao was struggling, the door opened. However, the scene that Lu Yiming expected did not happen. “Dad, did you forget something?” Lu Yiming kindly reminded him and wanted to ask, where is the family heirloom feather duster? Why are you empty handed? As for Aunt Zhang, when she saw that her daughter was safe and sound, her tears flowed down her face like they were free. Although he was complaining about his daughter, he just couldn’t bear to hit her. As for Lu Aijun, he performed a tough guy with a soft heart. “I know I’m scared. Tell me, why don’t you discuss it with your family? Do you know how worried your mother and I are?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… It seems that I am redundant. “You little bastard, let go of your sister. She’s been pinched and hurt.” “No, I…” “What are you looking at? Let go immediately.” “Wow…” Lu Yao kept crying, as if she had really suffered a great injustice. “It’s okay. I’m glad you’re okay. Hurry up. Knowing you were coming back, your mom made you your favorite pork rib soup.” “Shouldn’t it be bamboo shoot barbecue?” Lu Yiming clearly remembered that when he was in high school, he ran away from home because he got into trouble and was afraid of being scolded. After I was found, the beating I received was still fresh in my memory. When I think about it now, I subconsciously want to protect my butt. But what about Lu Yao? After causing such a big disaster, he still made soup? Isn’t this too outrageous? “Let’s go, we can discuss anything.” Lu Aijun took Lu Yao’s hand and was about to go into the house. Lu Yiming was left alone, disheveled in the wind. Benches and melon seeds are all prepared. You just let yourself watch this? No, look at Lu Yao, he turned back and looked at him halfway, his eyes were full of cunning. I%¥ @…… % @ “Yiming, this time it’s all thanks to you. Hurry up, go back to the house and warm up. It’s cold at night.” Fortunately, Zhang Qian knew to stay and show concern for Lu Yiming, otherwise, Lu Yiming would really become redundant. This family’s status is basically in the basement. “Yiming, why are you still standing there? Come into the house quickly.” “Aunt Zhang, I’m thinking about a question.” “What’s the problem?” “Tell me, am I his biological child?” Zhang Qian: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Lu Yiming walked into the villa with a depressed look on his face, and saw that his father had already held Lu Yao’s hand and sat on the sofa. Show concern and ask about someone’s well being. Have you ever suffered any loss outside? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Are you suffering? So Lu Yao went there just to experience life? “With her personality, she won’t suffer any loss.” Lu Yiming curled his lips. He had already cut open the man’s head, and ordinary people really couldn’t scare Lu Yao. “Shut up.” In the end, Lu Yiming was the one who suffered the loss. I feel like I can’t get through this day. “Okay, I know what you’re thinking. Your brother has already told me that you just want to go to work in the company. Don’t worry about your brother’s feelings.” “No, that’s not what you said on the phone.” You said you would be my assistant, what’s wrong? Did Dad become soft hearted when he saw his daughter crying? It turns out that I have never seen you treat yourself like this before. “Yiming is right. Xiaoyao doesn’t know anything right now. I’ll feel more at ease if Yiming takes her with me when she comes to the company.” In the end, Zhang Qian said something fair. This dispelled Lu Aijun’s idea. “Dad, I’m sorry for causing you trouble.” “We are a family, why are you saying this? Don’t worry, I am here, your brother won’t dare bully you.” “Ahem, she is my assistant, not my ancestor. I’m telling you this in advance. Don’t go too far.” After all, Lu Yiming really wants to train Lu Yao, but he has to do it in his own way. Blindly pampering her may not be a good thing for Lu Yao’s career planning. “You’re the only one who talks too much! Don’t scare your sister.” “Haha…Okay, I’ve dropped off the person. You and your family can chat slowly. I’m leaving first.” I can’t stay in this house for even a minute. Of course, Lu Yiming was not really angry, it seemed that he was used to it. Besides, Lu Aijun’s love for me is actually just as much. In the previous life, for my own sake, I was willing to give up even the foundation I had worked hard for my whole life. Lu Yiming knew this very well. Leaving now would just give the father and daughter more time to reminisce about the past. “Look at you. You’ve pissed Yiming off.” Zhang Qian felt bad, and when she saw Lu Yiming was about to leave, she immediately said something. “You little brat, you’re still vying for favor. Come on, have some soup first. Your Aunt Zhang has been stewing it for the whole afternoon.” Lu Aijun smiled and said, “That’s good. The family is finally together again.” Chapter 183 Lu Yiming’s Decision “I would like to announce an appointment. Lu Yao will serve as my assistant from today onwards.” Lu Group Investment Department. Early in the morning, a small internal meeting was held to announce Lu Yao’s appointment. Another great beauty. In the eyes of the investment department staff, Mr. Lu can definitely be considered a “stamp collector”. However, at this moment everyone ignored Li Li’s eyes. Is it her? ! As Lu Aijun’s former special assistant, Li Li recognized Lu Yao at first sight. However, this person’s appearance in the Lu Group is a bit… “Okay, each of you do your own thing.” After announcing the appointment, Lu Yiming adjourned the meeting. “Li Li, come to my office.” Lu Yiming stopped Li Li who was about to leave, and the two walked towards the office. As for Lu Yao, he just stood there in a daze. Wait, what does an assistant usually do? “Why are you standing there? Follow me.” Lu Yiming turned around and glanced at Lu Yao who was standing there in a daze. A look of disgust. Lu Yao: So angry! Followed Lu Yiming and Li Li into the office. “An Americano.” “Hmm? You talking to me?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “You’re the assistant, what do you say?” “snort.” Lu Yao turned around and left the office with a cold face. “If Mr. Lu knew that his beloved child was being ordered around by you like this, he would probably have to kneel on the washboard when he gets home.” Li Li couldn’t help laughing as she watched the scene in front of her. Such a brother sister relationship is quite rare. “You need to hone your skills. You’re too young.” Lu Yiming did not feel any psychological pressure. It can only be said that in Lu Yiming’s eyes, Lu Yao is not yet qualified to enter the management level. This is also the reason why Lu Yiming wants to keep Lu Yao by his side. “Have you really decided?” Li Li looked at Lu Yiming with a serious look. This made Lu Yiming subconsciously straighten his back. Li Li is not stupid. The first time she saw Lu Yao, she thought of a possibility. Is Lu Yiming really going to leave Lu Group? If it was just a possibility before, now it is directly put into action. “It’s not obvious.” “Are you really willing to do that?” Li Li found it hard to believe that Lu Yiming was really willing to give up control of the Lu Group. We often hear about high level executives fighting for power, but this is the first time that Lu Yiming has voluntarily given up something. As the only son of the Lu family, it can be said that Lu Yiming has every right to inherit the Lu Group. Even Lu Yao could not shake Lu Yiming’s foundation. Even if Lu Aijun dotes on Lu Yao, it is impossible for him to help Lu Yao to the position. But once Lu Yiming gives up on his own, it will be really hard to say. If it were in the past, it would have been the same to Li Li no matter who controlled the Lu Group. In other words, Li Li is still a supporter of Lu Yao. After all, apart from his dandy side, Lu Yiming’s character is hardly worthy of being in a respectable setting. But during this period, everyone can see the changes that Lu Yiming brought to the Lu Group. “Mr. Lu, I think the Lu Group cannot do without you.” “Huh? I didn’t expect you to say something like that, but the earth will continue to rotate regardless of who is gone.” “philosophy?” How could a playboy say such profound words? “For me, Lu’s is just a starting point.” “But Lu can fulfill your dream.” “My dream is the sea of stars.” Lu Yiming: Please make way for me, I want to show off again. “Speak human language!” “Well…” Well, failed to show off. Looking at Li Li’s disgusted look, Lu Yiming smiled awkwardly. “My time is limited and I don’t have the energy to spend on power struggles.” Although with Lu Yiming’s ability, he will be able to have the final say in the entire Lu Group within two years. However, two years was too long for Lu Yiming. “You have a terminal illness?” “Sister Lili, can’t you hope for me to be better?” “I just don’t understand why you choose to take such an easy path when you can.” “Isn’t that heroic enough?” “I’m afraid you’ll be bruised and battered.” “Trust my judgment, Lu Yao can do it.” Lu Yao has the ability to graduate early from a top business school. By keeping Lu Yao by his side for a while, Lu Yiming was confident that he could train a qualified successor for the Lu Group. However, I cannot say these words to Lu Yao now, in case Lu Yao gets cocky. “I’ll wait and see.” Li Li knew that it was useless for her to say anything now, so she stopped talking nonsense. “By the way, let me show you this.” “This is?” Li Li was a little confused after taking a document from Lu Yiming. As a member of the Lu family, Li Li knew the reason for Lu Yiming’s trip to Hong Kong. Could it be that during this period, Lu Yiming reached some agreement? Li Li let go of the document out of curiosity, and the next moment, her eyes widened. this… A bet agreement? “You are crazy!” “What did you see?” “Mr. Lu, should I take you to the hospital to get your brain checked?” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Opportunity, Li Li, don’t you see the opportunity?” “Lujiazui plot?” “Not too stupid.” As expected of him being the special assistant chosen by his father, he has good vision. “Mr. Lu, did you do this on purpose?” To be honest, it was hard for Li Li to understand why Lu Yiming was betting everything he had worked so hard to earn against Zhenhua Group. This is crazy. However, after Lu Yiming’s reminder, Li Li quickly discovered the opportunities hidden therein. “Do you have inside information?” Li Li had not heard the news that Lu Yiming was close to political leaders. Why is Lu Yiming so sure about the future of the Lujiazui site? “The motherland needs development.” “Just because of this?” “Li Li, think bigger. If you only focus on the gains and losses of a city or a pond, you will never achieve great things.” The rise of our motherland is unstoppable. This can be seen from the determination to reform and open up. In Lu Yiming’s eyes, the real economy is the support for the country’s development, but finance is the booster. This point must have been known to you already. How to build our own financial center is probably what leaders need to consider. And Lu Yiming is very clear about the infinite future it contains. To plan ahead means to help ourselves and give back to the motherland as it takes off. This is also what Lu Yiming wants to do in this life. The greatest heroes serve their country and their people. In this life, it is my turn. “Boss Lu, what’s next for our investment department?” “Come and see this.” Lu Yiming brought Li Li to his desk. “Swish…” A floor plan of Lujiazui was spread out in front of Li Li. Li Li: Sure enough, I was well prepared. It seems that my worries are unnecessary. Plan before you act. Mr. Lu, how many surprises can you bring me? Chapter 184 Childhood sweethearts? “Ma’am, who are you looking for?” “Lu Yiming.” “Ma’am, have you made an appointment?” “No.” “Sorry, if you don’t have an appointment, we…” Lu Yao went downstairs with resentment to buy coffee for Lu Yiming. Lu Yao: American style, huh, what a tasteless guy, he only knows how to order people around. I’m here to be an assistant, not a waiter. As a result, when I passed the front desk, I heard a familiar name. Subconsciously stopping, Lu Yao turned around and looked at the other person. Just this one glance made Lu Yao unable to take his eyes away. Beautiful, so beautiful. Even though I am a girl, I can’t take my eyes off her. Although the other party looked a little haggard at the moment. But it still can’t hide her divine beauty. Wait, haggard? No way. Lu Yao suddenly imagined a drama of seducing and then abandoning someone. The person who came was none other than Su Rongrong. Who would have thought that the plane would be delayed and we would not arrive at the Lu Group headquarters until now as originally scheduled. But I didn’t expect that I wouldn’t even have the chance to meet him. This bastard. Being bullied by Lu Yiming was one thing, but for the eldest daughter of the Su family, being blocked outside the door was a bit unreasonable. These damn employees are here to bully me, right? If not, if not… The quality of current mobile phone batteries is not good. They were out of power when I was on the plane. Su Rongrong also lost her temper. Indeed, many formal companies have such requirements. The lady at the front desk is just doing her job. Su Rongrong naturally wouldn’t make trouble. All the resentment was focused on Lu Yiming. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Why yourself? “Are you looking for Lu Yiming? Oh, no, it’s Mr. Lu.” At this moment, Lu Yao’s sudden appearance scared Su Rongrong. “yes.” “I can take you up there.” “you?” The girl who volunteered to do so was quite interesting. In a large company like the Lu Group, employees must undergo a series of professional training. There are strict rules and regulations in dealing with people. It is unlikely that the current situation will occur. None of the employees who just came in and out were nosy. Besides, this involves a senior executive of Lu Yiming’s status, so he will not meddle in other people’s business. What if, what if this beautiful woman is here to cause trouble? After all, Mr. Lu’s reputation as a playboy has long been known throughout the world. Although there has been some improvement now, who knows what Mr. Lu’s private life is like? Naturally, no one would be willing to do something that would offend others. But the person in front of me… “Who are you?” The lady at the front desk was also a little hesitant. Even if she was from the group, she shouldn’t take the lead in breaking the rules. If she was investigated, her hard earned job would be… “Don’t worry, my ID card says I’m Mr. Lu’s assistant.” “Well…” Even Su Rongrong looked surprised. Lu Yiming’s assistant? This is such a coincidence. No, what a great Lu Yiming! It’s only been a short time since Cheng Xiao left, and already there’s someone to take over? Su Rongrong’s expression darkened. Su Rongrong at least knew Cheng Xiao’s abilities. But the person in front of me obviously doesn’t have much work experience. Lu Yiming just kept her with him? He is harming the girl again. Su Rongrong was even more furious when she thought of this. The gratitude she had originally felt for Lu Yiming suddenly disappeared. “Aren’t you looking for Mr. Lu? I’ll take you up there.” “It’s troublesome.” Su Rongrong nodded at the other party. Tolerate! You bastard, no matter what sweet words you say, I won’t believe them! “Are you familiar with Mr. Lu?” While waiting for the elevator, Lu Yao was good at communicating. Although Su Rongrong’s aura is very strong at this moment. Most people would probably be very cautious when standing next to Su Rongrong. But Lu Yao is not an ordinary person. After all, she is Lu Aijun’s beloved daughter, Lu Yiming’s sister, and the little princess of the Lu Group. “Not familiar.” “Not familiar.” Huh? I just want to ask, what is this tone? There was obvious disappointment in his tone. “Wasn’t Lu Yiming’s previous assistant Wang Zu?” After Cheng Xiao left, it was clearly Wang Zhu who took over. “I don’t know. It’s my first day on the job too.” “Just graduated?” “I guess so.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Very good, just because the other person is beautiful, you don’t even follow the most basic principles. Lu Yiming, you disappoint me so much. Wait, why should I be disappointed? It obviously has nothing to do with me! “Sister, are you really not here to cause trouble for Mr. Lu?” What’s going on with this expectant look? It is intriguing that Lu Yiming’s assistant hopes that someone will cause trouble for Lu Yiming. Could it be that this assistant in front of me was forced? This is really possible. After all, in Su Rongrong’s heart, Lu Yiming is a bastard who can do anything! “Probably not.” “That’s a shame.” This is a blatant and not concealed rhythm. It seems to be the result of being forced. “You don’t want to be his assistant?” “Sister, did you figure it out?” “Did he force you?” “That’s right, sister. Don’t be fooled by Mr. Lu’s appearance. He is a bad guy.” Since childhood, I have only known how to bully myself. He arranged me to be his assistant, but on my first day at work, I was asked to run errands and buy coffee. This is simply inhumane. “Be careful and protect yourself.” Su Rongrong said that she felt the same way, especially when she woke up in the hotel that day and found that she and Lu Yiming were so close. Su Rongrong even wanted to chop Lu Yiming to pieces. Although the facts prove that both of them were plotted against, Su Rongrong is the real victim, isn’t she? “Sister, you are so right.” Well, Lu Yao seemed to have found a soulmate. In the look of surprise in Su Rongrong’s eyes, he grabbed Su Rongrong’s hand. This excitement that cannot be concealed is really… “What did he threaten you with? If that doesn’t work, I can help you.” Su Rongrong, who usually doesn’t like to meddle in other people’s affairs, suddenly made this decision. Well, Su Rongrong kept reminding herself, simply because she didn’t want this seemingly lively and well behaved girl in front of her to fall into Lu Yiming’s clutches. Absolutely no other thoughts. “I’m afraid not.” However, Lu Yao did not appear as surprised as he had imagined. Instead, he lowered his head with a look of grievance. “Even my dad helped him.” this… What kind of parent would be so cruel as to push his or her daughter into the ‘fire pit’? Could it be that Lu Yiming had caught something on their family? The more I think about it, the more outrageous it seems. If Lu Yiming saw this scene, he wouldn’t know what to feel. The main points are that one dares to speak, and the other dares to think, but they are not on the same channel at all. So I am a bad person. By the way, Su Rongrong’s decisiveness in the business world is a rare example of clarity in the world. How did I get led into a trap by this little girl Lu Yao? This is too outrageous! “Sister, you don’t know that he has been bullying me since he was a child.” Su Rongrong: We are childhood sweethearts?! Chapter 185 Workplace Harassment “Here, here, and here, you can pay attention to them.” At this time, Lu Yiming naturally had no idea that his sister was causing trouble for him. Pulling Li Li to gesture on the map, Lu Yiming remembered that the future prices of these pieces of land would definitely shock everyone. I’m afraid that in this era, no matter how bold the real estate developers are, they dare not imagine the future land prices. “Mr. Lu, didn’t you strongly oppose entering the real estate project before?” “It’s different now, it’s different now.” At the beginning, Lu Yiming wanted to transform the Lu Group into the business giant of his dreams. However, Lu Yiming only now realized that this approach of quickly reorganizing the Lu Group might not be feasible. Yes, Lu Yiming admitted that he had underestimated Vice President Xu’s methods. Although Wang Lan has already obtained important evidence, once he takes action, the group will inevitably experience a period of shock, and may even cause serious damage to the group. This is definitely not the result Lu Yiming wanted. If it were in his previous life, Lu Yiming, being young and energetic, would definitely choose to confront head on. But now that he has regained his life, Lu Yiming understands that sometimes, compromise is also an art. Of course, it doesn’t mean not taking action, but learning to plan before taking action. Sometimes, I feel helpless and become the person I hate the most. An old fox? Well, pushing Lu Yao to the position can be considered as fulfilling his father’s wish. Lu Yiming doesn’t care that Lu Yao will eventually take control of the group. What Lu Yiming wants to insist on has changed. “These plots of land have been cold recently.” As the vice president of the investment department, Li Li naturally needs to pay close attention to the future strategic core of the group. To be honest, these pieces of land were indeed within the group’s consideration at the beginning. However, the recent market economy is not ideal. Especially in the real estate industry, which seems to be growing steadily, the price fluctuations are too large. Fluctuations of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions are possible. “It’s not that the domestic economy is in trouble.” Lu Yiming’s expression became serious for once. This is exactly what Lu Yiming was worried about. Whether in Europe, America, or Asia Pacific, no one wants to see a strong motherland. What these capitalists want to see is to do everything they can to restrict the country’s development. What they encountered during this period were nothing more than their temptations. Once you show signs of weakness, these ‘jackals’ will surely ‘bite’ you like crazy. “Mr. Lu, are you sure?” “Join the recent projects and follow them personally. I need to be informed of the latest developments.” “But this may cause problems with our funding supply.” Yes, the Lu Group is now holding the goose that lays golden eggs, but even with the continuous financial transfusion from the Xiaolingtong project, the company’s blind expansion will still lead to a tight capital chain. “Contact the directors of the various banks.” “this…” Contact bank? This goes against Mr. Lu’s point of view. What Mr. Lu disapproves of the most is borrowing money. Although many companies are currently doing this. “The country needs some national enterprises to stand up. There will be different policies to support them, and you need to find the best solution.” “What if Mr. Lu asks?” “I’ll take care of it.” “Understood.” Since Mr. Lu is already confident, then just focus on doing your job. Even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. Attack on multiple fronts and achieve success on multiple fronts. Lu Yiming walked very quickly. In Li Li’s opinion, this was a very risky decision. But for some reason, I was willing to believe and support Lu Yiming’s decision. He can change the people around him. This is what a successful leader should be like. Just as Lu Yiming was giving instructions, the office door was pushed open. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… As expected, the assistant is unqualified. Doesn’t he know to knock on the door? As a result, when Lu Yiming turned around, he saw what he had been thinking about for a long time… “Why are you here?” “Can’t come?” “That’s not what I meant.” “Sister Lili, please go out first.” Lu Yiming gestured to Li Li who was standing beside him. The latter immediately understood what he meant and even said hello to Su Rongrong before leaving. However, Mr. Su’s expression seemed to be a little off. Could it be that Mr. Lu has offended others again? That’s not right. In Li Li’s opinion, shouldn’t President Su appear at the Lu Group at this time to thank Lu Yiming with gratitude? After all, Lu Yiming gambled all his shares in Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology for Su Rongrong’s project. If it were me, I would probably be moved to tears. But Su Rongrong’s expression was really… “Sister Lili.” When she walked out of Lu Yiming’s office, she saw Lu Yao standing next to her. The sly smile on her face made Li Li guess something instantly. “You didn’t say anything you shouldn’t have.” “No.” Lu Yao had an innocent expression on her face. this… Sure enough, women are born actors, regardless of age. “You didn’t tell President Su that you two are brother and sister?” “Why do you want to say it?” Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “Besides, didn’t my brother specifically emphasize that no one in the company should know about our relationship? I strictly abide by the agreement with him.” Very good, this one sentence blocked all the words that Li Li was going to say next. Neither of these two siblings is worry free. This is the true love hate relationship. “It doesn’t matter. It’s fine.” Although she didn’t know what Lu Yao said, Li Li could guess something from Su Rongrong’s expression. “Sister Lili, are we going back to the office?” “What are you talking about? I’ll go get a chair.” “Together.” The two women looked at each other, their eyes full of gossip. It turns out we are fellow travelers. All the employees in the Investment Department looked at the actions of Vice President Li and Assistant Lu in confusion. this… All I need is a handful of melon seeds. And at this moment, in Lu Yiming’s office. “Why are you helping me?” “What?” “Zhenhua Group, Lu Yiming, do you think I can’t do without your help?” “It just happened to happen.” “Lu Yiming, can you put away your hypocritical side in front of me?” “What on earth are you talking about?” I thought of countless possibilities, but I didn’t expect that Su Rongrong came to call me to task. This doesn’t match my script. Which link went wrong? As for Su Rongrong at this time, looking at Lu Yiming’s confused expression, she thought that the other party was guilty. Sure enough, it was just as I thought. “Lu Yiming, let me tell you, what I, Su Rongrong, despise the most is sexual harassment in the workplace!” “who?” “you!” “I?!” Li Li: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Lu Yao: Wonderful. Chapter 186 Su Rongrong, I am very satisfied with your jealous look “Wait, did you misunderstand something?” “You bastard, I didn’t expect you to dare to do it but not admit it.” Su Rongrong said that she was completely disappointed with Lu Yiming. The evidence is right in front of me, and I can even ask Lu Yiming’s assistant to come in for a face to face confrontation. But even in this situation, Lu Yiming still insisted on fighting to the end. Su Rongrong: I was blind and completely misjudged you! “Stop, are you jealous?” “Oh!” Su Rongrong was really about to laugh at this “scoundrel”. Am I jealous? Am I, the eldest daughter of the Su family, jealous? I… Well, Su Rongrong would naturally not admit it, but what about in the eyes of others? Li Li and Lu Yao looked at each other and confirmed that the sour smell could be smelled through the door. “What is sexual harassment in the workplace?” “Lu Yiming, you’re still pretending not to understand, right?” “I said, between Cheng Xiao and I…” “Stop, where is your new assistant? Assistant Lu is such a cheerful girl, do you think it’s fun to force her? You even threatened her father, Lu Yiming, you really are unscrupulous.” “who?” “How many assistants do you have?” “I…” Lu Yiming finally understood everything. It turned out that his good sister was setting a trap for him. At this time, Lu Yao, under Li Li’s gaze, was ready to run away. Lu Yao: It’s boring. I thought I could watch the fun for a while longer, but I didn’t expect that I would be involved so soon. Based on my understanding of Lu Yiming, I’m afraid that if I don’t escape now, I will… “Lu Yao, I know you are at the door, get in now!” Lu Yao: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… really… Before he took a step forward, Lu Yiming’s voice reached Lu Yao’s ears. “Come in.” “Sister Lili, save me.” Lu Yao looked pitiful and asked for help. But all he got was Li Li’s helpless expression. You deserve it for spreading rumors. However, this time there was an unexpected gain. Li Li had come into contact with Su Rongrong several times on weekdays. In Li Li’s opinion, Su Rongrong is good in every way except for one thing: she is too cold. In other words, Su Rongrong has her own little tsundere. Of course, as the eldest daughter of the century old Su family, it is normal for her to be arrogant. But this time, with Lu Yao’s exaggeration, Su Rongrong completely exploded. It also allowed Li Li to see another side of Su Rongrong. It turns out that when the goddess gets jealous, she can be just as unreasonable. Maybe Mr. Lu will thank his sister this time. Otherwise, how could he know Su Rongrong’s hidden thoughts? “Mr. Lu, you’re looking for me?” Before pushing open the door, Lu Yao had an expression as if he was going to be executed, but as soon as he opened the door, he immediately put on a dog licking smile. Seeing this scene, Li Li shook her head helplessly. The acting is indeed first rate. “Don’t be afraid, I’m here, tell me all your grievances.” Su Rongrong even pulled Lu Yao behind her. An attitude of “I’m here to protect you”. “Did this bastard bully you?” “yes.” The aggrieved tone of voice, coupled with the deliberately pretended expression, made Lu Yao at this moment really distressing. “Did you hear that? No one wronged you!” Su Rongrong glared at Lu Yiming fiercely, but unfortunately, she was too late. It seemed that Lu Yiming had already succeeded. It’s a pity that such a good girl’s life was ruined by this bastard. “I…” “Sister, I’m scared.” Seeing Lu Yiming glaring at her, Lu Yao shrank even closer to Su Rongrong’s arms. I have to say, it feels so good to have this soft fragrance in my arms, uh, no, it feels so good to have it in my arms. I didn’t realize that Su Rongrong’s figure makes me, a woman like her, extremely jealous. “call…” Seeing this scene, Lu Yiming was so angry that he laughed. Okay, I traveled thousands of miles to Hong Kong to save people, and this is how you repay me? At this time, Lu Yiming simply spread his hands and sat on his office chair. This indifferent attitude angered Su Rongrong again. You don’t care about it, do you really think the law can’t punish you? ! “Before you speak, ask her first, how did I bully her?” “Don’t be afraid, just speak up, I’ll take care of everything.” Su Rongrong: You want to threaten others right in front of me. “he…” Lu Yao filtered the thoughts in her mind and thought, well, there really seemed to be nothing to complain about. Although Lu Yiming had always been indifferent to her since she was a child, if we were to talk about bullying, it seemed that she was the one who was “bullying” Lu Yiming with the support of her father. No matter what, the brother and sister just don’t like each other. “Did I threaten your father?” “No? Otherwise, how could I become your assistant? Dad clearly arranged the position of department manager for me.” Su Rongrong: Uh, something seems to be wrong? Department manager of Lu Group? This is a mid level position. For a girl who just graduated to be assigned to this position, how much power must her father have? Su Rongrong keenly grasped the problem. Wait, her last name is also Lu, could it be that… “Have you ever been through any training? And you’re a department manager.” Lu Yiming sneered, not even knowing his own weight. “That’s because you slandered me in front of Dad.” “Wait, what’s your relationship?” “My brother!” “My sister!” Su Rongrong: I suddenly felt socially dead. “I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. You guys chat.” Su Rongrong was dumbfounded and didn’t know how to face it. The reversal came too fast. It turns out that the clown has always been me. “Sister Su…” “No, I don’t deserve it.” It’s so embarrassing that I was deceived by this little girl. At this moment, Su Rongrong even wanted to bury herself. “Why leave? She should leave first. Go and buy a cup of Viennese coffee.” “Lu Yiming, you are kidding me, how can I buy Vienna in China?” “Pay attention, this is a compulsory course for assistants.” Lu Yiming pounded on the table and watched Lu Yao leave the office angrily. As for Su Rongrong, she stayed there with an embarrassed look on her face. Wait, why should I listen to Lu Yiming? Why should I stay if he asks me to? Su Rongrong was about to raise her foot, but the next second, Lu Yiming seemed to have predicted the future and stood up directly, blocking Su Rongrong’s escape route. “you…” Su Rongrong wanted to say something, but found her throat a little dry. The momentum just now completely disappeared. At this moment, she was like a frightened little girl. “Su Rongrong.” “What?” “I was…very pleased with the way you looked jealous just now.” These words, as if with magical power, kept echoing in Su Rongrong’s mind. Jealous? Am I really jealous? No, that’s not the case. Su Rongrong wanted to refute, but she looked into Lu Yiming’s eyes which were so close to her. The devil is coming again. Chapter 187 The possibility of cooperation again Perhaps for Su Rongrong, this moment is the most embarrassing moment in her life. “You are not the first person to be deceived by my sister. Don’t be fooled by her harmless face. She is actually very bad.” “hehe…” Su Rongrong: Neither of you two brothers and sisters are good people. “What are you standing there for? Sit down.” Lu Yiming knew very well that he must not push Su Rongrong into a corner at this moment. If he really gets anxious, he’ll probably play ‘disappearing’ with me like he did last time, and I’ll be the one who suffers then. “Actually, no need. I’ve asked all the questions I need to ask, and it’s time for me to go back to the company.” Su Rongrong was in a hurry to leave, and her eyes were already glancing towards the office door. If you step out of here, you will be free. At this moment in Lu Yiming’s office, even breathing was difficult for Su Rongrong. “It seems that I haven’t given you the answer yet. All of this was just your speculation.” “I…” “Rongrong, all this is for you.” “hiss…” Su Rongrong: Is this bastard playing the affectionate game again? Damn it! Every time this time comes, my heart always beats wildly. “Are you satisfied with this answer?” Lu Yiming slowly approached and came in front of Su Rongrong, looking down at her condescendingly. They looked into each other’s eyes, so close that they could see each other’s shadow in each other’s eyes. “Stop, stop!” Su Rongrong leaned back as far as she could and forced herself to look away. You bastard, you’re teasing me again. “Why? Is it hard to admit that I’m nice to you?” “Lu Yiming, what is that?” “What?” “map.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… You have sharp eyes. In order to avoid Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong quickly stood up and walked to the desk. Sure enough, she was right. This was the floor plan of the Lujiazui site. And there are faint marks on this map. Su Rongrong: I seem to have discovered the truth! “Have you been eyeing the Lujiazui plot?” “I seem to have told you that I had no great interest in real estate.” Lu Yiming: Sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing for a woman to be too smart. “Ha, let me guess, you are planning to withdraw from Lu Group completely.” Lu Yiming: You are the worm in my stomach. Just by looking at a map, Su Rongrong was able to guess all this. It must be said that Su Rongrong is indeed smart. “Let me guess.” There was a hint of pride in Su Rongrong’s eyes. Lu Yiming was preparing to leave the Lu Group, and Lu Yao was the cause of this incident. Of course, the reason why Lu Yiming made such a decision was because Huaxia Longteng Network Technology wanted to build its own national enterprise, which was not as simple as just saying it. Even Lu Yiming has to devote himself wholeheartedly. Therefore, holding multiple positions is absolutely not feasible, as human energy is limited. Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Yiming began to cultivate Lu Yao, and the Lujiazui plot of land was the confidence that Lu Yiming left for Lu Yao and the Lu Group. This way, everything makes sense. You bastard, you were just being affectionate with me? Su Rongrong looked at Lu Yiming provocatively. Let’s see what you have to say this time. “So, Mr. Su thinks that I have no other options except the Lujiazui project?” “You are pretending to be ignorant, Lu Yiming. You and I both know that the future of Lujiazui is limitless.” “I admit it.” “So, although I thank you for your help, I can finally feel at peace.” It’s not all for herself. Knowing this, Su Rongrong felt a lot less psychologically burdened. Can also face Lu Yiming directly. As for whether she was deceiving herself or not, perhaps Su Rongrong knew it clearly. “Since you have guessed it, then, we can talk about cooperation.” “Mr. Lu has such a big appetite?” “Boss Su, aren’t you moved?” The two of them seemed to be playing a game of charades, with each other understanding each other tacitly. “I’ll think about it.” Su Rongrong looked at the map again. This bastard has an extremely good vision. If the Lujiazui area can really be developed, the several spots on this map will definitely be Feng Shui treasure lands. Of course, Su Rongrong also understood what Lu Yiming meant. It is impossible to take over everything with the current cash flow of the Lu Group. Cooperation? Maybe it’s a good choice. However, Su Rongrong needs to think about it carefully. After all, when doing business with Lu Yiming, you have to be careful and cautious. This bastard is not so kind. “I’ll take you there.” “Mr. Lu, please stay. I know the way.” Watching Su Rongrong leave, Lu Yiming showed a playful expression. “Come in.” There was clearly no one at the door, but Lu Yiming shouted into the air. The next second, Li Li appeared at the door. “Sister Lili, I didn’t expect you to have a hobby of eavesdropping.” “Boss Lu, you are joking. I was wondering how Boss Lu got the courage to take action on these plots of land. It turns out that he had Gaoyuan Capital in mind from the beginning.” “It was a spur of the moment decision.” Li Li: Haha, I’d be surprised if I believed you. “But why don’t you tell Su Rongrong the truth?” “That’s not necessary.” “Tsk tsk, I really have a new appreciation for you. Do you want to be an unsung hero?” “No, I owe her.” owe? Li Li’s expression became even more interesting. Could it be that there was something she didn’t know? Who could have thought that Mr. Lu from the Lu Group and the eldest daughter of the century old Su family were so deeply involved. “No need to guess. I’ll give this project to you first. After Su Rongrong figures it out, she will definitely send someone to contact us as soon as possible.” “Why didn’t she come in person?” “When the king meets the king, she won’t. According to her temper, she will definitely leave some room for maneuver.” “You are more familiar with her.” “How can I not be familiar with it?” Lu Yiming smiled silently. In their previous life, the two of them had always been “fighting”. At this time, Lu Yao, holding a cup of coffee, finally rushed back to the Lu Group. No, where are the guests? Where is Su Rongrong? ! Where’s my gossip?! Lu Yao looked depressed. “Too slow, unqualified.” “you…” Lu Yao: That’s too much. This coffee is so hard to buy. I went to several coffee shops myself. “Forget it this time. Remember, don’t mess with Su Rongrong in the future.” “snort.” Lu Yao obviously wasn’t listening. The more Lu Yiming cared about Su Rongrong, the more interested Lu Yao became in her. What kind of woman could make her heartless brother protect her so much? “come over.” “What do you want to do?” Retaliation. This was the only possibility Lu Yao could think of. “You’re my assistant, you decide what should be done.” Lu Yiming rubbed his temple, feeling that he had dug a hole for himself. Next, it’s time for hands on teaching. For the first time, Lu Yao realized that Lu Yiming was really so capable. He handled official business simply and clearly, and could get straight to the point and hit the nail on the head. Moreover, this vision is surprisingly powerful. The PHS project is by no means a coincidence. Is this still the Lu Yiming I know? “Here, here, and here, do you understand?” “Would you like to say it again?” “How stupid.” Lu Yao: (╯▔皿▔)╯ Chapter 188 I Want to Drink Yan Du Xian Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. “Mr. Cheng, the test data is out, and it’s much better than we expected.” This is different from the step by step work of the Lu Group employees. There is clearly a lot of passion going on inside Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. 80 percent of fresh blood makes every day full of passion. In Lu Yiming’s words, technology companies must maintain this kind of passion. You don’t even need the boss to make big promises to you; you can unleash 200% of your passion. At the beginning, Liang Qian was still worried that there would be problems because there were too many new employees in the company, but now it seems that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Liang Qian: You are indeed a good younger brother, using the newcomers to motivate the old ones. This move is really powerful. With the newcomers working so hard, who would have the nerve to just lie down? With healthy development, the progress of China Longteng Network Technology is visible to the naked eye. “Got it. The meeting will start in half an hour. The Technology Department and the Promotion Department will arrange for people to attend the meeting.” “Okay, I’ll go and notify you right away.” Today, Cheng Xiao is becoming more and more authoritative. Everyone knows that Mr. Cheng and Mr. Liang are the people the chairman trusts the most, and they both work really hard. During this period, Cheng Xiao wished she could live in the company. Huaxia Longteng Network Technology has just gotten on the right track, and with so many things to do, Cheng Xiao’s workload has increased significantly. As for Cheng Xiao at this time, she started to calculate by comparing the data on the document. Judging from the currently available data, this first comprehensive promotion should be able to establish Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology’s position in the industry in one fell swoop. However, the idea is good, but if something unexpected happens during the process… Cheng Xiao is under a lot of pressure. Everyone from top to bottom knows that this battle is crucial to the success of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. In order to block the rise of Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology, the two veteran companies even accelerated their research and development and prepared to compete with Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology. Established tech companies feel threatened. The purpose of accelerating research and development is to target Longteng Network Technology in the field of instant messaging. Once Longteng Network Technology loses its first battle, the momentum that it has worked so hard to build up will be gone. The business world is cruel. During this period, Longteng Network Technology has burned a lot of money. If it fails, investors’ confidence will definitely be undermined. The action against Longteng Network Technology has begun. A game of open swords and guns. Cheng Xiao tapped the table in front of him. Calculating his chances of winning. “Nervous?” “Why are you here?” The face I had been thinking about day and night suddenly appeared in front of me. Cheng Xiao asked in surprise. “I’ve been here for a while. I saw you were thinking, so I didn’t disturb you.” Lu Yiming was playing with the pen on Liang Qian’s desk and could feel the pressure from Cheng Xiao. “I’m sorry, I just…” Cheng Xiao was about to explain but was interrupted by Lu Yiming. “Thanks for your hard work.” “I…” At this moment, no matter how hard it is, it cannot compare to a word of comfort from Lu Yiming. If Liang Qian saw this scene, she would probably complain about Cheng Xiao. Are you deeply moved by just one sentence? You know, both of them have been very busy during this period, but Lu Yiming just became a hands off boss. Liang Qian was so angry that she asked herself every day when she opened her eyes what had she believed in and why she had believed in her stinky brother’s lies. “There’s a meeting soon, and it’s just in time for you to come.” “I just checked the data. It’s very good. It exceeds our expectations.” “But this is the testing phase after all.” “College campuses are the foundation.” Lu Yiming needs to relieve Cheng Xiao’s stress appropriately, otherwise, her mentality will easily collapse. “Mr. Lu, two technology companies have already developed the same instant messaging software for us. If they launch it ahead of schedule, I’m afraid that for us…” “Users will have an intuitive experience.” However, Lu Yiming didn’t take it to heart at all, and even sneered. Do you think you can defeat Longteng Network Technology by imitating others? Let’s not talk about whether the product decided on temporarily can compare with MM. Software development is not just about imitation. Lu Yiming knew very well how much money Longteng Network Technology had invested in research and development and maintenance for MM. The products of these two companies will definitely not be able to shake MM. By the time they react, it will be too late. “After the meeting, do you have anything to do tonight?” “I…” Cheng Xiao had originally agreed to go back to accompany her mother. Mother Cheng’s health has recovered. Apart from taking medicine every day, she is no different from an ordinary person. Of course, the weakness caused by long term bed rest still requires long term conditioning. But Cheng’s mother is no longer a burden to Cheng Xiao. Cheng Xiao can spend more time on work. However, due to the company’s work, the mother and daughter rarely meet each other during this period. Originally, she had agreed to go home to accompany her mother tonight, but on the other side was Lu Yiming, the person she had been thinking about day and night. Cheng Xiao looked embarrassed. “I want to drink Yan Du Xian.” “Hmm?!” Cheng Xiao looked up in surprise. He still remembers pickled pork with preserved vegetables. This is Cheng Xiao’s specialty and also her favorite soup since childhood. But Cheng Xiao hasn’t had a drink for a long time. Ever since Lu Yiming went to Cheng’s house last time, every time Cheng Xiao mentioned pickled pork with preserved vegetables, she would think of Lu Yiming’s rejection. Unexpectedly, this time, it was Lu Yiming who spoke. “Why? Inconvenient?” “No, of course, I…I’ll go to the market after get off work.” “No rush, let’s have a meeting first.” “good.” As for why you want to drink soup? Cheng Xiao didn’t ask, as long as Lu Yiming wanted to drink, she would be willing to do so anytime. Cheng Xiao could feel Lu Yiming’s fatigue. Perhaps, at this moment, Lu Yiming needs a quiet harbor. Whenever he needed her, she was there, always there. No reasons, no excuses needed. The pressure that Lu Yiming is bearing at this moment is unimaginable to anyone. In the conference room, Lu Yiming’s appearance caused quite a stir. After many days, the big boss made his debut. At the most critical moment. “Technology Department, please give us a brief introduction to our software design.” Everyone wants to perform well in front of the big boss. As for the MM software developed this time, it belongs to the field of instant messaging. “Our MM is divided into UDP and TCP. Generally speaking, we use UDP as the standard…” The R&D technical department has completely ensured that there will be no packet loss in messages. In their words, MM’s technology is now far ahead in the industry. Truly the best in the industry. Each command has a special tag, which is 2 bytes long. Fully consider the mainstream configuration of computers on the market. Can better save computer storage space. Be customer based and consider customers better. “Mr. Lu, our MM’s software engineering currently developed for enterprises, units or individuals can almost be said to be the best choice for all small and medium sized network service companies.” The R&D department is full of confidence. “Don’t be afraid of competition from similar companies and maintain your scientific research advantage.” This was the only sentence Lu Yiming said throughout the whole process. This is also Lu Yiming’s philosophy. MM is not afraid of spending money, Lu Yiming will be responsible for the bottom line. It was this one sentence that brought immense confidence to everyone. Chapter 189 In her previous life, what she wanted was very simple The vegetable markets of this era are still synonymous with dirtiness and disorder, with sewage flowing everywhere, and the relevant departments have not paid attention to the importance of management. This is true even in the Magic City. This is completely different from the vegetable markets in later generations. “Mr. Lu, why don’t you wait in the car?” Cheng Xiao was also afraid that Lu Yiming could not accept such an environment. After all, he is the eldest son of the Lu family and is somewhat disconnected from the lives of the lower class people. “No, I haven’t been here for a long time.” “Hmm?” What does this mean? Has Lu Yiming been to the vegetable market? This made Cheng Xiao feel a little unbelievable. This is not Versailles. Cheng Xiao really has never thought about what kind of scene it would be if Lu Yiming appeared in the vegetable market. Lu Yiming ignored Cheng Xiao’s surprise and pushed open the car door. Indeed, I haven’t been here for a long time. In the previous life, the Lu family fell into decline. In order to make a living, Lu Yiming had to go to the vegetable market, let alone pick up vegetable leaves when he was the poorest. If I say this out loud, I’m afraid no one will believe it. Everyone has low points. The only difference is whether you continue to sink or pick yourself up again. “Mr. Lu, be careful.” There is a sewage ditch in front, and these brand new leather shoes shouldn’t be here. But Lu Yiming dodged it directly, as if he had expected it. this… Could it be that he really had been here? To be honest, the way Cheng Xiao and Lu Yiming are dressed is normal for them to have dinner in a star rated hotel. Compared to what it appears in the vegetable market, it seems a bit out of place. “15 a pound? Why don’t you go and rob it?” This season is the peak season for bamboo shoots, which are generally sold at 10 yuan per pound. The boss probably saw what Lu Yiming and Cheng Xiao were wearing and wanted to make a small profit. As a result, I met an expert. Lu Yiming watched Cheng Xiao bargaining from the side. After all, he is the director of Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology, but he still haggles over a few dollars. In the previous life, after Lu Yiming and Cheng Xiao got married, he accompanied Cheng Xiao to the vegetable market once. It was only after Cheng Xiao begged for a long time that she reluctantly agreed. At that time, Lu Yiming was back on top, and naturally he didn’t want to look back at his past. After all, the strange looks from those vegetable farmers back then were like sharp thorns to Lu Yiming, piercing his proud heart. Especially when watching Cheng Xiao bargaining, Lu Yiming showed a look of disgust. I don’t understand why Cheng Xiao did this. She clearly wanted to buy the entire market, and it only took a word for it. Thinking about it now, my past life was quite funny. “Mr. Lu, I’m sorry to have embarrassed you.” When Cheng Xiao came to the vegetable market, it was like she was at home. The smile on the corner of my mouth could not be suppressed. Cheng Xiao has been a frequent visitor here since high school. Life was hard at that time and our family’s conditions were limited. Cheng Xiao comes here around 6pm every day so that she can buy the cheapest vegetables. Cheng Xiao, who had bought four kilograms of bamboo shoots, turned around and met Lu Yiming’s slightly upturned lips. Cheng Xiao: Is he making fun of himself? But this is the truest side of Cheng Xiao, the unreserved truth. As expected, Lu Yiming and I are not from the same world. Cheng Xiao suddenly felt a little sad. Yes, the gap between me and Lu Yiming has always been there, but I have always wanted to forget it. When he was with Su Rongrong, Lu Yiming would always be a highbrow. But what about with me? Would he accompany me to experience the life of the lowbrow? At this moment, the smile on Cheng Xiao’s face disappeared. “Boss Lu, you should wait for me outside.” “Not bad, it’s 20 bucks cheaper.” “What?” “I didn’t expect you to be such a good bargainer.” Cheng Xiao: Is this considered sarcasm? But the tone doesn’t sound like it. “Much better than me.” “are you serious?” “I remember I said, outside of work, just call me by my name.” “Pfft, sorry, I forgot.” The smile returned to Cheng Xiao’s face. It turned out that Lu Yiming did not dislike this place, nor did he dislike himself. Seeing the smile return to Cheng Xiao’s face, Lu Yiming felt relieved. In her previous life, she just wanted someone to accompany her to the vegetable market. However, in my previous life, I disappointed Cheng Xiao. In the previous life, under the urging of her own cold face, Cheng Xiao silently put down the bamboo shoots. She must have been very sad when she left. Sorry, I really realized my mistake. What a pity… “Let’s go check out the pig’s trotters. The one in front has the freshest meat.” Cheng Xiao put down her bag and pulled Lu Yiming towards the meat stall in front. “Be careful.” This is the busiest time in the vegetable market. The crowd was surging and Cheng Xiao was accidentally bumped into. If Lu Yiming hadn’t protected her, she would have fallen down. However, at this moment, she fell into Lu Yiming’s arms. “Are you okay?” “No…no.” Cheng Xiao knew without guessing that her pretty face must be blushing at this moment. “There are too many people and it’s too hot.” I’m trying to cover up my mistake but I still have to force an explanation. Cheng Xiao felt like she was about to cry because of her own stupidity. Especially the doting smile on Lu Yiming’s face at this moment made Cheng Xiao’s heart beat faster. “We’ll have to buy some blinds later.” “You know?” “certainly.” “But I usually buy blinds and tie the knots myself at home.” This can be cheaper. “Then buy blinds.” “good.” Cheng Xiao never thought that one day, Lu Yiming would obey her orders. Half an hour later, the two left the market with a great harvest, carrying two large bags of vegetables. “Hey, young people nowadays are talking about dating in the vegetable market.” “You didn’t see it, but I just came here in a luxury car.” “Okay, you guys are still thinking about gossip. The vegetables haven’t even been sold yet.” “Come and take a look, Moduqing, it’s cheap.” For the vegetable vendor, this was just a small episode. After all, we meet all kinds of people every day, some of whom are struggling to make a living, while others only care about the daily necessities. “What are you doing?” Cheng Xiao was also confused when she saw her daughter leading Lu Yiming in. What is going on? This scene is just like a couple returning home together. “Yiming wants to eat pickled pork with preserved vegetables.” “So, you went to the vegetable market together?” “yes.” Cheng Xiao answered as a matter of course. But Cheng’s mother rolled her eyes, wondering if her daughter was stupid. What is Lu Yiming’s identity? Why did you bring him to the vegetable market? Seeing that there was no unhappy expression on Lu Yiming’s face, Mother Cheng felt relieved. “Auntie, I’m sorry to trouble you.” “It’s okay. I’m so happy that you can come, Xiao Lu. Please sit on the sofa for a while. I’ll cook.” “Mom, you take a good rest, I’ll be here.” What Lu Yiming wanted to eat was the pickled pork with preserved vegetables that he cooked himself, so Cheng Xiao naturally had to cook it herself. Chapter 190 I came, I saw, I conquered “What’s going on?” After seeing Lu Yiming off, Cheng’s mother finally asked the doubts in her heart. “No, it’s just a meal with friends, Mom, don’t think too much.” Cheng Xiao avoided the question and looked like a little girl telling a lie. As someone who has experienced this, Cheng’s mother could see all this. Have dinner with friends and go to the market together? You were having dinner at a friend’s house, and you were just staring at Lu Yiming drinking his soup? Eating with friends… It seems that my daughter still hasn’t come out of it. But for this kind of thing, it would be useless even if I reminded her a hundred or a thousand times. Cheng Xiao needs to figure it out on her own. Silly girl, you are deeply trapped in it without knowing it. Mother Cheng shook her head, not knowing how to start. Forget it, as long as Lu Yiming can grasp the scale. “Mom, how are you feeling lately?” “I was just about to tell you this. I was thinking of going out to find a job. I’m just sitting around doing nothing anyway.” Cheng’s mother recovered well. After rehabilitation training, she is now no different from a normal person. Thinking that she is not too old, she also wants to go out and give it a try. Of course, heavy physical labor is definitely not an option, but Cheng’s mother feels that she can still handle working in a store. “Mom, if it’s because of money, don’t worry, your daughter will work hard.” Cheng Xiao naturally didn’t want her mother to suffer anymore. Although the family still owes a lot of money, Cheng Xiao’s current salary is not bad, and the money owed by relatives can be repaid quickly. The real creditor is actually Lu Yiming. Lu Yiming paid for most of the medical expenses, and based on his current salary, he could pay them off in two to three years. By then, Cheng Xiao will be able to consider the future of herself and her mother. “You, we are still living in Mr. Lu’s house, how can you be so heartless?” “Mom, I know that I will never be able to repay this kindness in my lifetime.” “I’m the one who’s holding you back.” “What are you talking about, Mom? I already have a goal to strive for. I am much luckier than my peers.” So what if there is more suffering? Cheng Xiao has come this far with all her efforts, and now that her mother has recovered, she has unloaded the biggest burden. Life will only get better, right? Besides, Cheng Xiao is full of energy when facing her current job, and Lu Yiming has provided her with a stage to showcase her abilities. Compared with my classmates, I am already far ahead. There is nothing for Cheng Xiao to be dissatisfied with. “You, tell your mother, what do you think?” In the end, Cheng’s mother couldn’t help but ask. Yeah, what are you thinking? A woman’s youth lasts only ten short years. If you don’t seize this opportunity, you will definitely regret it in the future. However, Cheng’s mother really couldn’t understand the relationship between Cheng Xiao and Lu Yiming. “What else can I do, Mom? I have to focus on my career now. Don’t worry, I know what to do.” “You.” Seeing her daughter’s confident look, Cheng’s mother shook her head. “Okay, you’ve worked a day, take a break, I’ll do the dishes.” Mother Cheng got up and put the dishes away in the kitchen. However, he did not notice that after he left, Cheng Xiao’s face suddenly darkened. Everything I just said was just to comfort my mother. Cheng Xiao is full of confusion about the future. It’s not about work, but about feelings. Try to forget Lu Yiming? Cheng Xiao couldn’t do it, and didn’t even try to do it. Cheng Xiao knew very well in her heart that she would probably never forget this man who brought light into her desperate life for the rest of her life. Moreover, Cheng Xiao could feel that Lu Yiming really liked Su Rongrong. Every time I see Su Rongrong’s eyes, they are special. Competing with Su Rongrong? Cheng Xiao might have thought about it before. With my own efforts, perhaps one day I will be able to stand beside Lu Yiming openly. By then, I will be able to muster up the courage. But this time, it was Su Rongrong who saved my mother’s life. I can never repay this kindness. How can I fight for it? Cheng Xiao would never do such a thing as repaying kindness with enmity. So what if I like Lu Yiming even more? Maybe I can only keep everything quietly in my heart like today. Watching Lu Yiming drinking the soup that he made himself, he felt very happy. “Why are you still standing there? Take a shower quickly. You haven’t had a good rest in several days. No matter how important your work is, you must take care of your health.” When Cheng’s mother came out after cleaning up, she saw her daughter still sitting on the sofa in a daze. Sighed helplessly. Those who are involved are often confused. I couldn’t help but remind him. “Okay, Mom, I’m going to take a shower first.” Looking at Cheng Xiao’s back, Cheng’s mother shook her head helplessly. If it weren’t for her burden, her daughter might have had a different life. Two days later. The country has welcomed the most important day for Internet technology. Within one day, the three top domestic Internet companies announced the launch of their own instant messaging software. This is undoubtedly a bombshell for the current poor domestic Internet market. For a while, the three major Internet companies all launched their publicity and promotion efforts at the same time. Among them, the Internet based instant messaging network tool independently developed by Huaxia Longteng Network Technology has received the greatest expectations. The attention of the bigwigs in the domestic Internet field was instantly focused on this company which was established not long ago. From its establishment to research and development, and then to today’s release, the speed of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology has shocked the industry. Of course, there are also many Internet practitioners who show disdain for the software of the three companies. What instant messaging software is this? It’s just imitating the foreign ICQ. We just copied the foreign chat software and moved it to China. Especially after trying the products of the other two companies, I found that they were 90% similar. This made many people smile mockingly. However, when these people open MM. The style of painting suddenly changed. Others imitate, MM surpasses. Instant messaging service is launched, interconnected with wireless paging, GSM short message and IP telephone network. Even more, integrated advertising sections and news push were launched directly in MM. this… Compared with the monotony of the other two, MM hits the jackpot right from the start. For a while, exploring the functions of MM became the most interesting thing for people related to the Internet. MM’s reputation instantly surpassed the other two companies. “Mr. Lu, the industry’s comments on MM are overwhelmingly one sided.” “Don’t worry. They won’t give up so easily before the user base grows.” Standing on the top floor of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology, Lu Yiming put his hands in his pockets and looked at the scenery below that had not yet formed a climate. One sentence can best reflect Lu Yiming’s mood at the moment. I came, I saw, I conquered! What I am about to bring is a brand new change. Who can compete? Chapter 191 The Battle of Internet Awakening This is a war without gunpowder. This is the first time such a scene has occurred in the domestic Internet field. Perhaps, it can be called the awakening war of the Internet. Of course, more people don’t know what this means. “Are there any results?” Gaoyuan Capital. It was already time to get off work, but Su Rongrong was still sitting in her office chair, tapping her fingers on the table in front of her. It can be seen that Mr. Su, who is usually steady, is a little uneasy at this moment. “Boss Su, our people have been keeping an eye on it, but no data has been released yet.” The assistant looked outside the office from time to time. When was the last time Mr. Su was so uneasy? Su Rongrong always gives people a feeling of being calm and confident of victory. Even when Zhenhua Group wanted to withdraw its investment, President Su did not show such nervousness. But today Su Rongrong was acting out of character. This not only surprised the assistant, but also the colleagues in the entire department. At this moment, they were all sitting at their workstations, and no one dared to leave early. Yes, to work in the workplace, you need to have some vision. Regardless of whether they had work to do or not, at this moment, everyone volunteered to stay and accompany President Su to wait for the final result. Gaoyuan Capital is already in this situation, not to mention Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology at this moment. From its establishment to its development and now to its launch, in just two months, Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology has gone through a journey that others have not completed in several years. In the industry, this is a miracle. And at this moment, the element of miracle is about to be revealed. Facing the strong siege from the other two friendly competitors, can MM released by Huaxia Longteng Network Technology stand out? In the early stage, the industry used Director Cheng Xiao to create public opinion, but was severely punished by President Lu. This time, it is a real competition. Who will be the winner and who will get the upper hand? “call…” Liang Qian said she was very nervous as she had not experienced such a scene for a long time. Even the company’s cleaning lady couldn’t help but clench her fists at this moment, and the rag in her hand was twisted so tightly that not a drop of water could drip out. “Mr. Lu, XX Technology has just announced its number of registered users.” Suddenly, a voice sounded, and everyone’s eyes were instantly focused on the other person. “How many?” “80,000.” “What? 80,000?” Liang Qian was surprised. It was impossible. How could there be a number of 80,000? You know, XX Technology’s software was rushed to market and did not meet expectations at all. The server even crashed for an hour and a half. With this kind of performance, 80,000 users, this is just a joke. “Mr. Liang, we have confirmed it several times. It is indeed 80,000. They have posted this data on the official website.” “laugh…” Just as everyone was shocked, Lu Yiming sneered, and in an instant, everyone’s eyes were focused on Lu Yiming. You know, in China Longteng Network Technology, Lu Yiming is like a stabilizing force. “The donkey in Guizhou has run out of tricks.” Even a fool would know there is something fishy going on with these numbers. What does it mean that XX Technology dares to commit such blatant fraud? It seems that facing the strong pressure from Huaxia Longteng Network Technology, they were completely panicked and actually used such means to prove themselves. Data itself is a double edged sword. “Mr. Lu, XX Network has also released data.” “How many?” “50,000 new registered users.” “It’s smarter than the last one.” To be honest, 20 years later, any APP can achieve such results on the first day of its launch. However, today in 1996, this is almost an impossible miracle. How many real users own computers in China? The so called smart office has just begun to advance. How many so called Internet cafes are there in the market? In an era when you can open an Internet cafe with just three or five computers, what does it mean to have 50,000 or 80,000 new users? “Boss Lu, our data has also been compiled.” At this time, the head of the technical department handed the freshly released data to Lu Yiming. “60,333 people.” “Yes, registered user 60333, currently online user 10211.” This is data without any water. Moreover, online users can be found through means. For any Internet company, the number of registrations can be faked, but the real users cannot be faked in any way. “The proportions are pretty good.” “Mr. Lu, do we need…” But after all, this data does not show the success of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. We all understand what the technical director means. Should we also inject water? “Need not.” “But Mr. Lu…” Although anyone in the industry will naturally understand the facts once they see these figures, most ordinary people are not aware of the tricks involved. In this case, doesn’t Huaxia Longteng Network Technology lose? “As a well known company in the industry, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology needs to disclose open and transparent information.” “this…” Lu Yiming’s words seemed to wake the other party up. His eyes lit up instantly. Mr. Lu’s words couldn’t be clearer. We either don’t announce it, or if we do, we will announce the number of online users. With an online rate of nearly 5 to 1, who would dare to disagree? Moreover, once Huaxia Longteng Network Technology announces the number of online users, the other two friendly companies must keep up. This data cannot be faked. When the time comes… “Understood, Mr. Lu, I will release our online data now.” As for registered users, let them guess. The industry standards are here, and no one dares to cross this line. Ten minutes later, the climax finally arrived. Huaxia Longteng Network Technology actually announced the number of people online. The number 10211 has slapped so many people in the face. This is the data from the first day of release. “hiss…” “It took off.” Gaoyuan Capital. “Boss Su?” “Tell everyone that we’re having a dinner tonight, it’s my treat.” “Long live President Su!” Outside the office, there were excited cheers from the crowd. Su Rongrong, on the other hand, looked at the night scenery outside the window. Su Rongrong: This bastard will never let people down. Half an hour later. The two friendly companies had no choice but to update their online data. The data of 1021 and 993 people are so shocking. The winner has been decided. The encirclement and suppression of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology ended in complete failure. And China Longteng Network Technology will soar into the sky! “Haha, I knew that Lu Sheng would keep his word. This will be the headline of tomorrow’s headline.” Zhuang Sheng was smoking a cigar, looking excited, and it was a beautiful fight. This was the first time that Zhuang Sheng hoped that he would be the loser in the bet agreement. The future of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is exciting. Lu Group. “This brat.” Lu Aijun smiled proudly. Chapter 192 The 30 Most Influential Investors in China “Brother, your invitation.” “Invitation letter, mine? Wait, how many times have I told you, in the company, please call me by my title.” “Okay, bro.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… The main story is about a rebellious girl. We clearly agreed on it, but it turned out that you have your say and I have my say. Lu Yiming was also troubled. She was obviously excellent in all aspects, but she acted stubborn and rebellious in front of him. So the assistant I hired is the one who makes me angry. As the year draws to a close, business activities are becoming more and more frequent. Contact upstream companies to build relationships and accept invitations from downstream companies to appease people. For the business world, these things are naturally essential. However, such formal invitation letters are rare. After all, in this era, everything has not become too formal. In the period of rapid growth of barbaric capital, making money is the first priority. Looking at the invitation letter in his hand, Lu Yiming revealed an intriguing smile. A sensational event happened in the investment circle this year. Fortune magazine, a highly influential magazine in the investment community, has collaborated with Zero2IPO Research Center. Jointly launched the selection of “30 Most Influential Investors in China”. As soon as this news was released, it instantly attracted the attention of the investment community. In previous years, the investment community had its own criteria for judgment. However, in most cases, you evaluate yours and I choose mine. Everyone has their own competition. The investors selected often fail to gain public recognition. Every list that appears is called a wild list. This time, Fortune magazine and Zero2IPO Research Center jointly selected the 30 most influential investors of the year. Perhaps it will be possible to end the chaos in the investment world and achieve true unification. After all, whether it is Fortune magazine or Zero2IPO Research Center, they are both authorities in the investment world. At that time, the comprehensive selection criteria will be based on the candidate’s institutional category, managed funds, number of companies invested by investors, scale, company exit returns, market value of invested companies, combined with investors’ market influence and other comprehensive selection criteria. The 30 most influential investors in China’s VC/PE market since 1995 will be ultimately selected. This rumor has been around for a long time. Unexpectedly, it finally took shape. Lu Yiming played with the invitation in his hand with a playful smile. “Did you receive the invitation?” “Huh…can you walk with some noise?” Lu Yiming raised his head in dissatisfaction, and what he saw was the bulge! “Wang Lan, does the company have any regulations? Do we have to dress appropriately? As the manager of the general affairs department of the company, shouldn’t you set an example?” “Huh? Mr. Lu, which eye of yours saw that I was dressed inappropriately? This is the latest model of Prada this year.” Well, in this era, the public’s concept of luxury goods is still limited to things like Playboy and Benny. As for top luxury groups like LVHM, they have not yet shifted their strategic focus to China. Of course, for a woman like Wang Lan who pursues fashion and has seen the world. If you don’t have top quality ready made clothes in your wardrobe, you’d feel embarrassed to go out and say hello. “You think you’re the Devil Wears Prada?” Looking at Wang Lan’s smug look, Lu Yiming couldn’t help but complain. “What did you just say?” But it was these words that made Wang Lan’s eyes light up. “What?” “You just called me The Devil Wears Prada. Hey, that’s good. I like it.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Is this really a compliment to you? “I didn’t expect you to know women well.” Wang Lan was a little excited and even turned around in front of Lu Yiming to show off her dress in all aspects. This show off look is really unbearable to watch. “Can’t you see I’m working?” Lu Yiming rolled his eyes, which was considered an order to leave. “No, I came here immediately after hearing the news.” “Who gave you the news?” Lu Yiming was very curious. You, Wang Lan, are in the General Affairs Department. How come you knew about the Investment Department so quickly? It turns out there is a traitor in the Investment Department. Lu Yiming would like to see whether Wang Lan dares to reach out to his investment department. Haha, she is indeed an ambitious woman. It’s only been a short time, and you can’t stand the loneliness anymore? I invited Wang Lan back to deal with Vice President Xu, not… “Okay, what’s with that look in your eyes? I’ve been working very hard since I took office, and I’ve made breakthroughs every month.” Wang Lan glanced at Lu Yiming, a stingy man. “That’s because you’re being unruly.” “I am thinking about my future and laying a good foundation with the future leader of the Lu Group. Is that wrong?” “you…” Well, Lu Yiming finally knew who betrayed him. My dear rebellious sister. By the way, I shouldn’t have introduced Wang Lan to Lu Yao last time. The original intention was to let Lu Yao know about the ‘own people’ that he had arranged in the company. Lu Yiming never thought that these two people could play together. There were even several times at noon when I saw the two girls sitting together in the cafeteria, talking and laughing while eating. This intimacy is really… “It’s useless to build connections. I said, if you want to stay in Lu’s, you must…” “Stop, stop. I have completed the task ahead of time. Also, Lu Yao is your assistant now. Is my communication with her abnormal?” Well, Lu Yiming was speechless. “Tell me, why haven’t I encountered such a good thing?” At this moment, Wang Lan’s expression was somewhat gloomy. At her most glorious moment, although she was named the queen of the investment world, as mentioned before, Wang Lan was at most an uncrowned king. Without the endorsement of Fortune and Zero2IPO Research Center, Wang Lan clearly lacks confidence. “Times are progressing.” “Can you please not be so irritating?” Wang Lan looked at the invitation in Lu Yiming’s hand, and her saliva started flowing. But this guy actually has an indifferent expression on his face. Lu Yiming: Haha, in my previous life, I was at the top and was the protagonist every year. I have become immune to it a long time ago. “Mr. Lu, this is an opportunity. If you can represent the Lu Group’s investment department and be awarded the best of the year, it will be of great importance to the future of the Lu Group.” At this moment, Wang Lan finally showed a serious expression. This was also the real reason why Wang Lan came to find Lu Yiming. “so?” “We must win.” “With me.” “I?” Wang Lan was stunned, obviously not expecting Lu Yiming to suddenly invite her. “The Queen of Prada deserves the spotlight.” Wang Lan couldn’t refuse this reason, right? Even at this moment, Wang Lan’s breathing became rapid. This is the scene I have always dreamed of. It turns out that he had always known. Chapter 193: The moon is covered by a light cloud, and the snow is blown by the wind Huaxia held the selection of the 30 most influential investors for the first time. But who could have thought that Lu Yiming would be selected in the end? You should know that among these 30 investors, some are either the founders of XX Capital, the chairman of XX Venture Capital, or at least the managing partner and president. They are all well known figures in the investment world. It represents the infinite glory of the investment circle. The first dinner also received great attention. All 30 investors were present. This was not only a grand event for the investment community, but also a carnival for the initially formed capital circle in China. “Nervous?” “Nervous? Are you kidding me? What kind of situations have I not seen?” The banquet hall of Peace Hotel, an open banquet venue, is also the final venue for this dinner. The Peace Hotel was able to stand out from many alternatives. It can only be said that its profound historical heritage ultimately became the key to victory. However, for Wang Lan, the Peace Hotel seemed to be a place that was incompatible with her. My first Waterloo in the investment world was at the Peace Hotel. And the person Wang Lan was facing at that time was Lu Yiming. This bad guy. Thinking of this, Wang Lan gave Lu Yiming beside her a charming look. “What look?” “It’s none of your business.” Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Haha, woman. However, it was also because of Lu Yiming that Wang Lan was exposed to a whole new world. It is said that every profession is like a mountain between two worlds. The reason why Lu Yiming dared to use Wang Lan in this situation was because he valued Wang Lan’s ability. “Can you be more gentlemanly?” Wang Lan grabbed Lu Yiming’s arm and put her arm around him. “After all, I am your female companion tonight.” With this ambiguous posture, Wang Lan is not afraid of being at a disadvantage at all. Especially tonight, I’m wearing a thin evening dress. “Too close.” “Ha, are you afraid of being seen by someone?” Asking even though you know the answer. Wang Lan said that she did it on purpose. Lu Yiming is not the only one selected among the 30 most influential investors tonight. Among the many senior figures in the investment industry, the election of the two newcomers caused a huge sensation. Lu Yiming from the investment department of Lu Group, and Su Rongrong, a managing partner of Gaoyuan Capital. These two can be said to be new faces in the investment world. However, this year, these two are in the limelight. He reached the pinnacle as soon as he debuted. Lu Yiming led the investment in the Xiaolingtong project, which was hailed as the best investment this year. Among them, Gaoyuan Capital represented by Su Rongrong also participated. Compared with Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong is more like a qualified investor. It was not only the PHS project, but also promoted the huge investment projects of the wealthy class in Hong Kong. Several of these projects have attracted much attention. Not long ago, Gaoyuan Capital joined hands with Xiangjiang Unlimited Group to acquire a strong stake in China Longteng Network Technology. An emerging Internet company that originally did not receive much attention in the investment community. In the eyes of investors, today’s Internet companies are just in their infancy. If you invest money now, the return on investment will be insufficient, the investment cycle will be long, and you will need to hold for a long time. These are obviously not the best options for investment tycoons who are used to making quick money. However, the strength of China Longteng Network Technology once again shocked everyone. Within 2 months, the new project was launched and on the first day, it became the number one in the industry. You know, this feat was accomplished despite the siege from established Internet companies. Countless people began to inquire about the background of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology. How could someone who could plan so precisely be an ordinary person? But after trying every possible means, Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology only has two beautiful female directors on the surface. Cheng Xiao and Liang Qian, yes, newcomers again. This year is a year when new people emerge in large numbers, and there is a sense of urgency that the new generation will replace the old generation. Back to Su Rongrong’s words, investing again in Huaxia Longteng Network Technology once again proved Su Rongrong’s vision. A big shot in the investment circle once lamented that Su Rongrong’s achievements in one year were incomparable to what he had achieved in ten years. Although this sentence is a bit exaggerated, it does highlight Su Rongrong’s ability to a certain extent. However, many people find it very strange that the investment circle is a place that values seniority and strength. How did a girl who just graduated achieve this? Even more so, why didn’t Su Rongrong get ‘drowned’ in such a deep investment circle? This is not alarmist, but a very real reality. It’s not just the internal circulation within capital companies. The entire industry is filled with these. It is harder than climbing to the sky for a newcomer to make a name for himself. But not only did Su Rongrong come forward, but no one in the circle dared to make any small moves. This is really abnormal. Everyone can understand that it is not directed at Lu Yiming. After all, Lu Yiming is not a professional in this field. Besides, as a leading private enterprise, the Lu Group is not so easy to deal with. But Su Rongrong’s rise was too strange. “Believe it or not, those who smile at you most likely want to kill you.” Wang Lan held Lu Yiming’s arm, appearing very affectionate. However, the whisper in Lu Yiming’s ear was quite cold and ruthless. This is exactly what the investment world is like today. “No need. I’m not a threat.” Lu Yiming was quite confident that the investment department of Lu’s Group would not pose a fatal threat to the entire industry. In comparison… “Aren’t you worried about her?” “who?” “It’s boring, Mr. Lu, we are all wise people.” Wang Lan rolled her eyes. Since you entered the room, your eyes have never left someone. Wang Lan had to admit that this person was truly the focus of the entire audience. It looks like a light cloud covering the moon, and it flutters like snowflakes blown by the wind. This sentence is just right to describe Su Rongrong. “She is now the public enemy of the investment community.” There was a hint of schadenfreude in Wang Lan’s words, but more of it was envy. The queen of the investment world at that time was extremely envious of the beauty in front of her. She has a good figure, good looks, good vision, and a good background. Tsk tsk, it seems that God has concentrated all the best things on her. As a woman, I am really jealous. Perhaps many people would wonder why those ferocious guys didn’t attack Su Rongrong. But Wang Lan knew it very well. Is it so easy to touch the eldest daughter of the century old Su family? The moment Wang Lan learned about Su Rongrong’s life experience, he had already given up his unrealistic fantasies. This kind of people are born for the investment world, aren’t they? At this moment, Su Rongrong was the focus of the whole audience, no doubt about it. The eyes of countless people in the venue fell on Su Rongrong. There are those who envy him, those who are jealous, and there are also many who can’t wait to replace him. Chapter 194 Black Rock Capital “What? You don’t want to say hello? We are partners after all.” Wang Lan smiled and whispered in Lu Yiming’s ear. To outsiders, this attitude seems quite ambiguous. “You did it on purpose.” “ha.” “That’s too much.” “What is Mr. Lu saying? Why can’t I understand?” Wang Lan refused to admit it and put on an innocent expression. However, even a fool could understand the evil taste in this look. Sure enough, women are born actors. Not to mention people like Wang Lan, who has maximized her advantages. “Miss Su’s eyes just glanced over here.” Wang Lan said with interest. Although it was just a glimpse, Wang Lan still noticed it. She is angry. As for why she was angry, or whether she was jealous, Wang Lan said that it was not something she could know. Anyway, my goal has been achieved, right? “It’s been so long, and you’re still thinking about taking revenge on me.” Lu Yiming also looked helpless. He thought Wang Lan had let it go. Who could have thought that women could have such a strong desire for revenge. “I am a woman.” She deliberately leaned close to Lu Yiming’s whisper. It’s just to make some people misunderstand. Wang Lan clearly saw that Su Rongrong glanced at her. Tsk tsk, you’re frowning. It seems that this intimate action was not without benefit. “That’s about enough.” It was obvious that Lu Yiming’s arms were a little stiff. “Okay, I’ve had enough fun. I have some acquaintances over there. I’ll go say hello first. I wish you a good time.” As she spoke, Wang Lan waved her hand, picked up the champagne handed to her by the waiter, gave Lu Yiming a look that showed her understanding, and left. “Oh, woman.” Lu Yiming shook his head. However, what Wang Lan had just reminded her was correct. At this moment, Su Rongrong seemed to have become the target of public criticism. Although the people surrounding Su Rongrong all showed friendly smiles, how many of them were sincere? This year, Su Rongrong has shown her talents, which is not necessarily a good thing. As for why the top bosses didn’t take action. All I can say is that they are not fools, so they naturally investigated Su Rongrong’s background. Fearing the deterrent power of the century old Su family, they naturally dare not act rashly. But there are always some people who are short sighted. Thinking of this, Lu Yiming also picked up a glass of champagne and walked towards Su Rongrong. “Boss Su, what are you talking about? You seem quite happy.” Lu Yiming’s forceful entry seemed a bit rude. However, everyone present knew that Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong maintained a good cooperative relationship, and there didn’t seem to be anything wrong with coming up and saying hello. Besides, given Lu Yiming’s current status, what’s wrong with being a little stronger? “Hey, isn’t this Mr. Lu? You’re late.” Before Su Rongrong opened her mouth, the person next to her, who seemed to be very familiar with everyone, closed the distance between himself and Lu Yiming as soon as he opened his mouth. Su Rongrong: This bastard was showing off everywhere with Wang Lan just now, but now he acts like nothing happened. Su Rongrong saw all the affectionate actions between Wang Lan and Lu Yiming just now. Although he kept reminding himself that there was no relationship between him and Lu Yiming. But Su Rongrong just couldn’t control her anger. Seeing Lu Yiming being too intimate with the opposite sex, Su Rongrong couldn’t control herself. Damn bastard, he just put a curse on himself. As for the fact that he came to me as if nothing had happened, I just didn’t want Lu Yiming to be happy. Su Rongrong pretended not to hear Lu Yiming’s greeting. On the contrary, Mr. Yu standing next to him seemed very approachable. Su Rongrong: Maybe even Mr. Yu doesn’t know what’s going on. It’s up to you what to do! In Su Rongrong’s opinion, Lu Yiming may not necessarily understand the investment circle. After all, Lu Yiming’s main focus is not on investment. As for Mr. Yu standing aside, he represents an international capital giant and his title is also President of Asia Pacific. It’s good to lean on a big tree for shade. Mr. Yu is definitely a big shot in the Chinese investment circle. He has tens of billions of funds in his hands. It is one of the goals that entrepreneurs who are pursuing their dreams most want to achieve. However, if Lu Yiming really didn’t know the other person, wouldn’t it be too embarrassing? By then, Lu Yiming might be accused of being arrogant. Forget it, it’s my fault that I’m kind hearted. In less than a few seconds, Su Rongrong thought a lot and finally decided to help Lu Yiming. Although this bastard always makes me angry. “Mr. Lu, this is…” “President Yu, the Asia Pacific president of BlackRock Capital, we have known each other for a long time.” Su Rongrong was about to speak, but unexpectedly, Lu Yiming had already revealed Mr. Yu’s identity. BlackRock Capital is a well known name in the global investment circle. “Oh? Mr. Lu knows me?” “Mr. Yu, you must be joking. Black Rock has been making such a big move in China recently. It’s very popular.” “Haha, Mr. Lu is joking. In comparison, Mr. Lu’s vision is admirable. I just mentioned this to Mr. Su.” It is not difficult for Lu Yiming to brag about business. Besides, in his previous life, Lu Yiming had indeed cooperated with General Yu. You know, BlackRock Capital is well known for its ruthless behavior. He has mastered the art of capital. How many founders were eventually kicked out of the companies they founded by BlackRock Capital? Cooperating with Black Rock is like trying to grab chestnuts from the fire. But in his previous life, Lu Yiming not only took advantage of Black Rock’s power, but also diluted Black Rock’s shares again after its successful listing. In the end, the disappointed Mr. Yu could only make a quick buck, and his ultimate goal was naturally not achieved. This is also one of the few cases where Black Rock could fail. In his previous life, Mr. Yu hated Lu Yiming to the core. But there is nothing we can do. As for this life, Lu Yiming really doesn’t want to have too close contact with these foreign capitals. After all, I am not short of money now. Lu Yiming sees clearly the disadvantages of foreign investment. “Mr. Lu, if there is a chance, we can cooperate well. After all, we are also very interested in the domestic Internet industry.” Su Rongrong frowned slightly when she heard this, but Lu Yiming’s expression remained unchanged. Well, maybe to others, the background of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology is very mysterious. However, for Heiyan, it is not difficult to obtain this information. “You guys chat.” Su Rongrong wanted to take the opportunity to leave. After all, there are some things you shouldn’t listen to. In Su Rongrong’s opinion, if Huaxia Longteng Network Technology can catch up with Black Rock, it will be equivalent to entering the ‘fast lane’. For Huaxia Longteng Network Technology, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Maybe Lu Yiming will be moved? It’s better to be more sensible. It’s a pity that Su Rongrong obviously underestimated Lu Yiming’s determination to build a national enterprise. He directly grabbed Su Rongrong’s arm. “Where are you going, Miss Su? Am I that scary?” The ambiguity in the tone would make people suspicious. Lu Yiming: ( ^_^ ) This is my purpose! Misunderstandings are great. Let some people be a little self aware. Chapter 195 Tonight you are responsible for being beautiful Seeing that Su Rongrong was about to leave, Lu Yiming hurriedly spoke to try to keep her. “Please wait a moment, Miss Su. I have something to tell you.” Once Lu Yiming opened his mouth, Su Rongrong had no choice but to stay where she was. This bastard deliberately called me so affectionately. Now, it won’t be long before the relationship between him and Lu Yiming becomes the focus of everyone’s discussion. Su Rongrong glared at Lu Yiming subconsciously. However, Su Rongrong is so beautiful that even if she thinks she has the most ‘fierce’ look, in the eyes of others, it is just a coquettish look. There is definitely something wrong with this pair. Everyone who follows this small circle thinks so in their hearts. Lu Yiming: ( ^_^ ) This is exactly the effect we want. Su Rongrong is yours, so don’t worry about others. Lu Yiming didn’t expect that Su Rongrong would be so cooperative. Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Cooperate with the big head ghost! “Mr. Yu, I’m sorry, I’m here…” “Haha, I see. We’ll talk about it in detail later when we have a chance.” Although Mr. Yu is decisive in the investment circle, he is a rare gentleman in normal times. Naturally, we are willing to help others achieve their goals. The Lu family and the Su family are really interesting. Are they trying to change some situations? This information is extremely important to General Yu. You also need to digest it carefully. As for Su Rongrong at this moment: This bastard did it on purpose. It’s a pity that his ‘glare’ has no killing power. “Aren’t you afraid of arousing suspicion?” “What do you suspect? Do you suspect that I’m pursuing Miss Su?” Lu Yiming waved his hands, obviously not caring at all. “Mr. Lu, you came with a female companion.” Su Rongrong felt that she had to give a reminder. “Wang Lan, it’s not like you don’t know him. Besides, don’t you know why I do this?” “Ha, I’m not Mr. Lu’s worm. Besides, our relationship is not so close that we can talk about everything.” When Su Rongrong thought about the two of them whispering to each other just now, she felt extremely angry. “I seem to smell something sour. Besides, I will tell you everything you want to know.” “Lu Yiming, that’s enough.” The more you talk, the more excited you get, right? Moreover, while he was talking, he moved even closer to him. Su Rongrong wanted to turn around and leave, but Lu Yiming, who knew what was going on, blocked her way. Su Rongrong looked up and glared at Lu Yiming again, “You bastard, you never stop talking like that.” “You look so beautiful tonight.” “Hmm?” This sudden praise seemed to disrupt Su Rongrong’s rhythm. What’s going on? Suddenly praising yourself? Well, Su Rongrong had indeed dressed up carefully for tonight’s event. This haute couture dress highlights Su Rongrong’s beauty even more. It is so beautiful. Lu Yiming’s praise was indeed not a compliment. However, what is different from others’ praise is Su Rongrong’s mentality. After entering the venue, many people praised Su Rongrong. But to Su Rongrong, this was just social etiquette. Su Rongrong can always respond calmly to compliments from the opposite sex. But at this moment, when facing Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong clearly felt herself panicking. Yes, I feel nervous. This dog’s eyes are so passionate. Make yourself impossible to ignore. “you…” “Blushing.” “Lu Yiming, that’s enough. It’s fun to tease me, right?” Su Rongrong even fantasized about what would happen if she poured all the champagne in her hand onto Lu Yiming. I guess both of them are going to be famous! But it’s really refreshing to think about it. Imagining the miserable state of the dog, Su Rongrong instantly felt better. It’s a pity that due to the good education she received since childhood, Su Rongrong really can’t do such a thing. “What are you thinking about? You seem to be in a better mood.” “It’s none of your business.” “Okay, tonight is a Hongmen Banquet for you.” “It’s not as exaggerated as you say.” In response to Lu Yiming’s reminder, Su Rongrong’s eyebrows slightly frowned. Although I have made some mental preparations. However, what Lu Yiming said was right. It was indeed not easy for him tonight. Although she had greeted many people after being in the venue for such a long time, Su Rongrong could feel the hostility from them. “Worried?” “Lu Yiming, you know me. I don’t care about this bit of hostility.” Su Rongrong also has her own pride. Since she has chosen this path, Su Rongrong will naturally not give up, nor will she retreat because of this so called hostility. “Of course, I know you well.” Su Rongrong: You bastard, you take every opportunity to tease me, right? I only listened to the first half of your sentence. What I meant was that I was already prepared, and since I had chosen this path, I would definitely make it to the end. However, after being disturbed by Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong’s originally heavy mood was eased. Perhaps Su Rongrong herself did not realize this. “You should think about yourself. Just like what happened just now, President Yu, many people have guessed that you are behind Huaxia Longteng Network Technology.” “So what?” Strong self confidence. At this moment, Lu Yiming showed strong self confidence. What if I knew that I was the mastermind behind Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology? Lu Yiming said that he had never intended to hide it from everyone. Moreover, Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology has now established a firm foothold in the Internet field. During this period, the performance of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology has been full of surprises. The two veteran Internet companies have already shown clear signs of decline. In the past two days, China Longteng Network Technology has set new records in both the number of registered users and the number of online users. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a leader. “Mr. Lu, it’s good to have confidence, but I’m afraid that you will catch up later. Mr. Yu has just shown a strong interest and seems to want to join the game.” “Don’t forget my original intention.” “I know, we want to build a national high tech enterprise that belongs to our motherland. However, if external capital led by Black Rock realizes the huge market, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology will face huge challenges. After all, whether it is software, hardware, or infrastructure, they have huge advantages.” Su Rongrong said with some concern. “Are you worried about me?” “I’m just worried about my investments.” What does it mean to be stubborn even though you are dead? Su Rongrong performed this point very well. She was clearly worried about the challenges Lu Yiming would face. But when the words came to my lips, they took on a different taste. However, it was useless for Su Rongrong to be stubborn, because Lu Yiming had already got the answer he wanted from Su Rongrong’s eyes. “Okay, you just need to look beautiful tonight, and leave the rest to me.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… This bastard is acting out of control again. But why did I feel a little happy after hearing this? Chapter 196 This bastard is so handsome when he is confident Tonight’s investment event means a lot to some people. Just like at this moment, it is worth giving everything for an admission ticket. For many young people with dreams, once their efforts are recognized by one of the big guys, it means unlimited possibilities. It could be financial freedom from now on, or a bright future. “Your female companion seems to be having a very good chat.” Su Rongrong and Lu Yiming standing together are too dazzling. This combination can be said to be the absolute protagonists in the field at the moment. Every move is under the watchful eyes of everyone. Especially now, the way these two are whispering to each other looks more like they are discussing some kind of deal. You know, Gaoyuan Capital represented by Su Rongrong and Lu Group represented by Lu Yiming have created a great miracle. These two seem to herald a future of endless possibilities. And now, all the people who are paying attention to the two of them are even more eager to know what projects these two have set their eyes on. If I could get a piece of the pie, maybe I could become one of the 30 best investors next year. Unfortunately, no one could have imagined that when these two people stood together, they were not discussing the project at all, but were talking about meaningless topics. “Wang Lan is from this circle. Having many friends is not necessarily a bad thing.” “I remember that he seems to be the general manager of your Lu Group now.” Speaking of this, Su Rongrong felt unhappy. This bastard took advantage of the internal turmoil in Gaoyuan Capital and poached Wang Lan, a general. He really shows no mercy at all. “What you said is not the final result.” “Do you really have this idea?” This time, it was Su Rongrong’s turn to look serious. It seemed that he had understood Lu Yiming’s intention. No wonder Wang Lan was brought here tonight. This is to create an opportunity for Wang Lan to return to the stage. The former queen of the investment world is very capable and would be a huge challenge for anyone. “If you hold it in long enough, you’ll be more ferocious when you let it out, right?” “She is a beauty after all. Your adjective is really…” The corners of Su Rongrong’s mouth twitched. This bastard was really insulting a beautiful woman. Describing Wang Lan as a scourge, I wonder how Wang Lan would feel if he knew about this. However, Lu Yiming was right about one thing: Wang Lan’s communication skills were definitely better than his. Look at the young talents surrounding Wang Lan at this time, each of them is eager to show off. “She is very good at taking advantage of her own strengths. In this respect, you are not as good as her.” “snort.” Facing Lu Yiming’s evaluation, Su Rongrong had a cold face. But I knew in my heart that Lu Yiming’s evaluation was correct. Indeed, I cannot do what Wang Lan did. Perhaps, starting from too high is not necessarily a good thing. “What are you thinking? I’m just giving you an objective evaluation. Your strengths are not replicable, and they are what many people in your circle dream of having.” “What I want everyone to see is my hard work.” Perhaps because she was unhappy, Su Rongrong drank the champagne in her hand in one gulp. This is almost impossible for Su Rongrong, who has excellent self control. It seems that Lu Yiming’s evaluation really touched Su Rongrong’s heart. “You have a good eye. At least, you discovered the treasure in me.” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… Where’s the face? Forget it, this bastard is shameless and he even treasures boys. He is so arrogant. “Relax, even if you are surrounded by powerful enemies, just do your best and they can only look up to you.” Family background, ability, vision, in Lu Yiming’s opinion, Su Rongrong has all the top “configurations” at the moment. Plus the honor of being one of the 30 most influential investors in China this year. As soon as Su Rongrong made her debut, she became a respected figure in the investment community. Is there anything more convincing than this? “By the way, what did Mr. Yu say to you just now?” “What else can I say? Just testing you. These are all meaningless words.” Su Rongrong didn’t know why, but when she was with Lu Yiming, she always kept her guard down. I am also willing to share my true feelings. Unlike when I was facing the general just now, my brain had to work frantically all the time and every word needed to be carefully considered. It’s just that Su Rongrong herself didn’t notice it. In other words, even if Su Rongrong discovered it, she would have been accustomed to it. Assimilating a person can sometimes be really scary. “Your father should be proud of you.” “hehe…” “By the way, Huaxia Longteng Network Technology will hold a celebration banquet the day after tomorrow. As an investor, will you attend?” “Celebration party? You seem very confident.” Indeed, MM of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology achieved a huge victory. In terms of data alone, the number of registered people has exceeded 1 million. This can be said to be a remarkable achievement. After all, in this era when computers were still rare items, Lu Yiming led China Longteng Network Technology to great success. However, Su Rongrong couldn’t help but want to pour cold water on Lu Yiming. Su Rongrong: This bastard’s smug look really makes me unhappy. “As an investor, I should naturally invite you.” “Don’t forget our bet agreement, 5 million registered people.” “You think it’s unattainable?” “snort.” If nothing unexpected happens, Lu Yiming can indeed rest assured. However, the investment world is changing rapidly, and the Internet industry has just been formed, so anything can happen. Su Rongrong believes that it won’t be long before similar competing products emerge like mushrooms after a rain. At that time, it will remain unknown how Huaxia Longteng Network Technology will break out of the siege. and… “I know what you are worried about. It’s not just BlackRock. As far as I know, four of the top ten international capitals have already set their sights on the domestic Internet sector.” “How do you know that?” This news was like a bolt from the blue to Su Rongrong. The competitors made their debut. This is not only a challenge for Hua Xia Longteng Network Technology, but also a challenge for Gaoyuan Capital. Originally, Su Rongrong thought that there would be a vacuum period of at least half a year. Who could have thought that a challenge would come so soon? “No one is stupid. The domestic Internet market is completely blank. Entering the market at this time is the right decision.” Lu Yiming had already anticipated this situation. A hundred flowers bloom. I am the wings of the butterfly. The unique strength of Huaxia Longteng Network Technology has changed the domestic landscape and triggered a new round of storm. However, Lu Yiming was full of confidence at this time. I have never been afraid of challenges. Besides, in order to realize his dream, Lu Yiming has long been prepared to face challenges. Su Rongrong: This bastard, he looks so handsome when he looks confident. Chapter 197 Chen Yuanzhe The 30 most influential investors in China selected by Fortune magazine and Zero2IPO Research Center, both of which are extremely influential in the investment community, are naturally the best of the best. Even Lu Yiming had to admit this. Among them, there is one person who can be said to have played a profound role in changing China’s future investment landscape. He is Chen Yuanzhe, a true investment genius. Is it him? ! The moment Chen Yuanzhe walked into the venue, he was against the light. In an instant, half of the attention was directed at Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong. I’m afraid the only person in the whole audience who can do this is this future legend in the investment world. Even Mr. Yu from BlackRock Capital could not compare to him. “Chen Yuanzhe of Goldman Sachs.” “I know.” Following Lu Yiming’s gaze, Su Rongrong’s eyes also stayed on Chen Yuanzhe. Su Rongrong’s eyes were rarely moved. What is a young talent? Chen Yuanzhe embodies this concept to the fullest. The man on the street is as beautiful as jade, and the young man is unparalleled in the world. “Huh… I didn’t expect that.” Did Lu Yiming lose his composure? Chen Yuanzhe, I am very familiar with him. It can be said that this guy has been thinking about this for the rest of his life. In his previous life, Lu Yiming regrouped and met Chen Yuanzhe by chance. The two people share the same ideals and have joined forces to create a series of miracles in the Chinese market. At that time, Chen Yuanzhe had just left Goldman Sachs and was eager to invest in new projects to prove that he was still capable. In the end, Lu Yiming was chosen. Thinking about that period of time, Lu Yiming was filled with emotion. “Do you know him?” “I don’t know him now.” Yes, Chen Yuanzhe debuted very early and is 5 years older than Lu Yiming. Started from Goldman Sachs Europe and rose rapidly. This time when he returns to China, he should be in charge of the Asia Pacific branch. This guy is definitely a genius. Lu Yiming learned many of his tactics from Chen Yuanzhe. I just didn’t expect that we would meet so early in this life. “not good…” A complicated expression suddenly appeared on Lu Yiming’s face. In the previous life, when he was drunk, Chen Yuanzhe told himself a secret. When he returned to China that year, Chen Yuanzhe met Su Rongrong at a cocktail party. Love at first sight, stunningly beautiful. He launched a fierce offensive against Su Rongrong. However, Su Rongrong at that time probably had not yet gotten over her inner demons, so she ignored Chen Yuanzhe’s pursuit. Even though Chen Yuanzhe tried every possible method, he still failed in the end. But the problem is that a lot has changed in this life. Su Rongrong’s fate has already changed. If this guy intervenes, wouldn’t it be… “What?” Su Rongrong looked puzzled. Ever since Chen Yuanzhe appeared, Lu Yiming had become very jumpy. Could it be that there is a grudge between these two people? I didn’t expect that Chen Yuanzhe could still control Lu Yiming? “What I mean is that you will have a powerful opponent in the future.” Lu Yiming: No, Su Rongrong must be given a vaccination first. After all, Lu Yiming has experienced Chen Yuanzhe’s methods. Walk through a field of flowers without getting a single leaf on you. There was a playboy who was even more famous than himself, and his methods of dealing with women were endless. I’m afraid Su Rongrong will be fooled. “Him? He is one indeed.” Su Rongrong’s expression was also somewhat solemn. This Chen Yuanzhe was indeed very powerful. When Su Rongrong was studying, her mentor highly recommended this genius in the investment industry. He became famous at a young age. In his first year at Goldman Sachs, he led an investment worth hundreds of millions and made a huge profit. At the same time, he also became a key training target of Goldman Sachs. In the following two years, he continued to thrive, breaking the tradition of Goldman Sachs. In the fourth year, he became the president of Europe and the United States. Who would have thought that this year, Goldman Sachs would actually send him to China. It seems that even Goldman Sachs is optimistic about the future of the Asia Pacific market. Compared to China, it is the top priority. Su Rongrong can be said to have heard of his great name for a long time. At this moment, there was more curiosity and inquiry in the look he gave Chen Yuanzhe. Lu Yiming: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… bad thing. Once a woman becomes interested in a man, she will continue to explore. This is quite dangerous for Su Rongrong. Others may not know, but Lu Yiming knows Chen Yuanzhe very well. This guy is definitely not a good person. What if, like in the previous life, he launched a fierce pursuit of Su Rongrong… It can be said that whatever you fear will come true. Chen Yuanzhe’s eyes swept across the entire audience. In the end, it stopped on Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong. Perhaps this is what it means when heroes appreciate heroes. Compared to those old guys. Lu Yiming, Su Rongrong and Chen Yuanzhe are the true young generation. It also represents the infinite possibilities of China’s investment community. “It’s them.” Chen Yuanzhe’s eyes lit up. interesting. He casually picked up a glass of champagne and walked towards Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong. Along the way, he kept greeting people. For those who come up to me to make friends, I will stop and chat with them. “It covers all aspects.” “Tsk, you’re a seasoned veteran.” Seeing this scene, Su Rongrong was greatly impressed by Chen Yuanzhe’s ability to deal with people. But in Lu Yiming’s opinion, this guy is obviously too pretentious. “Boss Su, Boss Lu, what a coincidence.” In the end, Chen Yuanzhe finally came in front of Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong. As soon as he opens his mouth, he makes people feel like spring breeze. “Mr. Chen.” “unfortunately.” Su Rongrong greeted him politely, but Lu Yiming’s words, “unfortunately”, made Su Rongrong and Chen Yuanzhe stunned at the same time. this… Chen Yuanzhe was a little stunned. It seemed that he had never offended the prince of the Lu Group, right? It seems like he is somewhat hostile towards me. No, that’s not right. It can’t be called hostility. Chen Yuanzhe has a very accurate eye for people. Lu Yiming shouldn’t be hostile to me, but it’s strange that he seems to be very familiar with me. It’s like two good friends who have known each other for a long time are greeting each other. This feeling is quite wonderful. However, no matter how strange it feels, we have to put it aside for now. The moment Chen Yuanzhe saw Su Rongrong, his eyes sparkled. Lu Yiming: The thing I was most worried about finally happened. “Boss Su, have we met before?” “I’m sorry, I…” “Do you believe in a glance that lasts a lifetime?” Su Rongrong: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… “I’m sorry, maybe I’m too frivolous, but the first time I saw Miss Su, it felt like I had known you for a long time.” Straight ball attack. Lu Yiming: This guy is even more shameless than me. Su Rongrong was shocked. Are all ABCs so straightforward? “Haha, Mr. Chen, where is your Serena? And your Tiffany, didn’t they return to China with you?” Lu Yiming said that he knew all of Chen Yuanzhe’s dark history. Sorry, you said it when you were drunk. Chapter 198: Every generation has its own talented people, each leading the trend for hundreds of years “Mr. Lu seems to know me very well?” Whether it is Selena or Tiffany, they are indeed Chen Yuanzhe’s confidantes in Europe and the United States. The key point is that it didn’t take long before these two foreign girls came all the way to China and became Chen Yuanzhe’s right hand men. But how did Lu Yiming know about my private life? This made Chen Yuanzhe very puzzled. “Mr. Chen seems to have stayed abroad for too long. There is an old Chinese saying, ‘If you don’t want others to know, then don’t do it yourself.’ Is that right, Mr. Chen?” It’s sabotage, blatant sabotage. Su Rongrong, who was standing aside, smiled. So that’s how it is. I was indeed startled by Chen Yuanzhe’s ‘sudden attack’ just now. Now after Lu Yiming’s explanation, it turns out that he is another playboy. No wonder. Su Rongrong is beautiful, and she is naturally well aware of this. I was born to be the target of playboys. But the playboys in the country are still a little more tactful. There are very few people like Chen Yuanzhe who confesses directly right away. “Haha, Mr. Lu is right.” Chen Yuanzhe did not show the slightest embarrassment after being exposed. His mental quality alone is admirable. “However, I still fell in love with President Su at first sight.” Su Rongrong: Well, I met another shameless guy again. Why use the word ‘又’? Just look at Lu Yiming standing aside and you will understand. At this moment, these three people gathered together, attracting the attention of the whole audience. The gathering of the three youngest “bigwigs” in China’s investment community is a very rare sight. Seeing these three people, everyone present had to admit the fact that they were old and the future belonged to the young. “Mr. Chen, you just returned to China not long ago, you are really amazing.” Lu Yiming’s words naturally had a specific meaning. Although Chen Yuanzhe is very capable and became famous at a young age. But most of the achievements were made in Europe and the United States. Tonight is the ceremony for the 30 most influential investors in China. It seems that Chen Yuanzhe, who has just taken over as the Asia Pacific region of Goldman Sachs, is making big moves. At the same time, it was also a reminder to Su Rongrong that the guy in front of her was not easy to deal with, so be careful of his trap. “Mr. Lu, tonight in front of Miss Su, let’s only talk about romance, not work.” Chen Yuanzhe was targeted by Lu Yiming right from the start. He was not a fool and naturally saw that Lu Yiming was on guard against him. There was a look between Lu Yiming and Chen Yuanzhe that only men could understand. It turns out that everyone has the same goal. This is interesting. “Mr. Chen is so romantic every day, I’m afraid he won’t be able to change his mind when the time comes.” “Thank you, Mr. Lu, for the reminder.” “polite.” this… Su Rongrong said that she seemed to see sparks of lightning between Lu Yiming and Chen Yuanzhe. You’re very welcome. They were clearly the best ‘comrades in arms’ in the previous life. The current situation seems to be somewhat… “Let’s get to know Goldman Sachs and Chen Yuanzhe again.” “Lu Group, Lu Yiming.” “Mr. Lu is not authentic. Why didn’t he mention Huaxia Longteng Network Technology when introducing himself?” “Mr. Chen is joking. It’s not like Mr. Chen didn’t introduce the identity of Guoben Investment’s partner.” “ha.” “hehe…” The two hands are clasped together tightly. Su Rongrong: Why do I feel like I’m redundant? “Everyone, welcome to the event despite your busy schedule…” And at this moment, the host’s voice was heard in the venue. The ceremony for China’s 30 most influential investors has officially begun. Lu Yiming and Chen Yuanzhe looked at each other and let go at the same time. We still have to give face to the organizer. As for the other party, there is still a long way to go. “I believe everyone knows that this time we selected the 30 most influential investors in the Chinese VC/PE market since 1995 based on comprehensive selection criteria such as candidate institution type, managed funds, number of companies invested by investors, scale, company exit returns, and market value of invested companies, combined with investors’ market influence.” “Now, please welcome Fortune Asia Pacific Editor in Chief, Ms. McQueen, to announce the list for everyone.” Although the list has already been announced privately, the necessary procedures still need to be followed. This is also the most glorious moment for the 30 investors. “Now I will announce the 30 most influential investors in China. They are…” It’s funny to say that the list of the 30 most influential investors in China was announced by an old American lady. All I can say is that Fortune Finance now has a very special status in China. Not only in China, even if we look at the world, Fortune is no longer just a magazine, but a weather vane of the capital world. The bigwigs in various fields have to give him some face. As the editor in chief of Fortune Asia Pacific, Mrs. McQueen is not a simple person at all. “They are Mr. Yu Feng, President of BlackRock Asia Pacific. Mr. Yu Feng focuses on hard technology, enterprise services, green energy, modern agriculture, biotechnology, consumption and other fields. He works with start ups to promote technological innovation and sustainable development, and help reshape and upgrade the industry.” “Ms. Zhuang Yan, managing partner of Nanjiguang Venture Capital…” “Founder of East Fortune…” As familiar names were revealed one by one, the ceremony reached its climax. “Boss Lu, what do you think of these people?” I didn’t expect Chen Yuanzhe to suddenly ask. “To be honest, it is not a wise choice to comment on these big guys in private.” After all, whether for Lu Yiming or Su Rongrong, these people are seniors in the investment industry and are worthy of respect. Although, they invest to make money. But his vision is absolutely vicious. It cannot be said that there is 100% guarantee of making a profit. At least you win more and lose less. “If Chinese enterprises want to develop, they cannot do without them. Mr. Chen, please don’t test me. My philosophy is actually the same as yours.” “Ha, great minds think alike? I didn’t expect that I would have the honor of meeting Mr. Lu right after returning to China. It’s a blessing.” Yes, in the previous life, the two of them came together because of this. It’s a pity that they eventually parted ways due to differences in opinions. It’s hard to say who is right or wrong. Lu Yiming was more deeply influenced by Chen Yuanzhe’s ideas. His style of doing things in this life is closer to Chen Yuanzhe. Maybe, in this life, even bigger sparks can be created. “Goldman Sachs Asia Pacific Head, Mr. Chen Yuanzhe…” “Gaoyuan Capital partner, independent investor, Ms. Su Rongrong…” “Mr. Lu Yiming, President of the Investment Department of Lu Group…” “Fortune” also took great pains to introduce these three proud children together, which caused a huge sensation. Talented people emerge in every generation, and each of them leads the trend for hundreds of years. Chapter 199: The Young Man Everyone held their breath and burst into warm applause every time an investor was introduced. For the domestic market, these investors represent an infinite future. The rise of China’s capital world depends on their thoughts. At this time, a young man in the venue seemed very excited. Yes, he was excited, his eyes shining as he looked at the ‘trio’ not far away. This look is really easy to be misunderstood. The young man’s surname is Fan. They are international students who have returned to China to start a business, and this time they came to the scene to attract investment. However, Fan Dong at this moment looked haggard. Although he had shaved his beard, his dark circles under his eyes and his thin figure made him seem somewhat out of tune with the other elites present. Fan Dong took great pains to get the invitation for tonight. Perhaps for Fan Dong, his dream may be stillborn. In the past, Fan Dong returned to China to start a business with his passion and wanted to contribute to the country’s high tech industries. However, after returning to China, Fan Dong realized that starting a business was not as easy as he had imagined. What’s more, my goal is to create… In half a year, Fan Dong had exhausted all his passion and the wealth he had accumulated with great difficulty. However, the dream is still out of reach. At the beginning, I was too passionate and ignored my mentor’s advice and insisted on returning to China. Perhaps it was not until this moment that I finally understood the ‘sarcastic’ smile on my mentor’s face. I am too young. Thinking everything is too simple. I originally thought that with my passion, I would always be able to find like minded brothers. However, reality gave me a loud slap in the face. I thought everything was too simple. Even for the sake of ideals, we cannot ignore reality. Ideals are full, but reality is skinny. In half a year, not only had he consumed all his savings, but the project had not shown any improvement at all. Standing still, failing so many times. The brothers who followed him eventually succumbed to reality and left him one after another. The company has reached the point where it has no money to spend. After this month, I’m afraid I won’t be able to pay not only the salary but even the rental fee for the venue. A wrinkled suit, which is the only presentable piece of clothing that Fan Dong has. Who would have thought that MIT’s most talented student at the time would end up like this. If I had followed my mentor’s advice. Perhaps now, I have become the most indispensable R&D genius of a large company, receiving various honors and enjoying a rich life. But Fan Dong told himself that he did not regret it. What if the whole world didn’t understand him? The road you have to take is a road full of thorns. Once successful, it will be a smooth road for the motherland. At this time, Fan Dong mustered up his courage, and the project book in his hand was already wrinkled due to nervousness. There is no way out. You must move forward courageously. Keep reminding yourself and keep encouraging yourself. Fan Dong took the crucial first step. However, at this moment, Lu Yiming and the other two were surrounded by guests who came to congratulate them. The 30 most influential investors in China, everyone present is well aware of the value of this. It would be great to become familiar to Lu Yiming and Su Rongrong. Of course, Chen Yuanzhe is also one of the targets of everyone’s flattery. After all, Goldman Sachs represents a legendary family. “Mr. Lu…” Fan Dong mustered up his courage and took advantage of the gap to come in front of Lu Yiming. “Thanks.” Lu Yiming, who was exhausted from dealing with the situation, did not see the person coming. He just subconsciously picked up the champagne and raised the glass to Fan Dong. “I… Mr. Lu, I’m not here to congratulate you.” Fan Dong looked embarrassed. Perhaps tonight was not the right time. But for Fan Dong, tonight is his last chance. On ordinary days, I have no chance to come into contact with high ranking investors. Fan Dong has tried self promotion before. However, his own project proposal could never be delivered to these big guys. These top investors are not something you can meet just because you want to. Fan Dong once tried to recommend himself. However, he was stopped at the front desk of several investment banks. As for the project proposal I submitted, I never received a response. Perhaps for these investors, their projects are too fantastic. Every attempt has been fruitless. But Fan Dong refused to give up. Even if he died, he wanted to die knowingly. “Um?” Lu Yiming looked up subconsciously. The person in front of him looked only a few years older than him. However, his face was full of vicissitudes. Although it seemed that she had tried hard to dress herself up, she was really out of place compared to the others present. “Excuse me, do we know each other?” “I don’t know you, Mr. Lu. I’m here, I’m here…” Although I told myself again and again that I must seize the opportunity. But for Fan Dong, countless pairs of eyes around him were focused on him at this moment. For Fan Dong, who originally only focused on technology, it became no longer easy to speak. “Please, if you haven’t figured out how to ask, just give way first.” To the people around who were congratulating him, Lu Yiming was already one of the absolute protagonists of the night. This guy is obviously just occupying the toilet without doing anything. The crudely made suit was clearly out of place for such an occasion. What’s up with the security at the door? Don’t you know to check the invitations? “I…I just…” Listening to the discussions of the people around him, Fan Dong couldn’t even raise his head. I am a joke. From the moment I made the decision, I was a joke. However, if I don’t try again, my dream will be completely shattered. “Mr. Lu, this is my project book, please take a look.” this… How could such a thing happen in such an occasion? The people around were also dumbfounded. Perhaps, it was his good quality that prevented him from bursting into laughter. But the changes in everyone’s eyes were so wonderful. Who would have thought that they were here to solicit sponsorship? But the time and place are so funny. What kind of occasion is this tonight? If it were any other big shot, he would probably signal the security to kick the person out. Even if you have such an intention, you should skillfully integrate the introduction into the conversation when introducing yourself. He is nothing like the young man in front of him who forced the project proposal on me without any consideration. Moreover, this wrinkled project book is really unsightly. “Mr. Lu, I…I…” “Thank you. I’ll take it.” this… Lu Yiming’s actions once again refreshed everyone’s cognition. Mr. Lu actually took over? This is too unbelievable. Chapter 200 Chip In the end, Fan Dong was squeezed out by the enthusiastic crowd. Fortunately, the project book was successfully handed over to Lu Yiming. As for whether it would succeed, Fan Dong had no idea. But at this moment, two on site staff members came to Fan Dong. “Sir, I’m sorry, we need to check your invitation.” It seems that Fan Dong’s actions just now have attracted the attention of the organizer. Fan Dong’s invitation letter belongs to the media category. Although it cost a lot to get the invitation letter, a word from the organizer could decide whether Fan Dong stays or leaves. It is obvious that the organizers attach great importance to the first event of China’s 30 most influential investors. “Unstable factors” like Fan Dong naturally need to be resolved in a timely manner. Just like that, Fan Dong was politely “asked” to leave the venue. And all this didn’t cause much trouble at all. In fact, most of the invitees didn’t care about these. Fan Dong, who was outside the venue, looked dejected. Perhaps, it was another futile effort. “Sir, do you need help getting your car?” “No, thank you.” Car, he did have a Santana before, but when the company was in urgent need of money, Fan Dong exchanged his Santana for money. Don’t be afraid of being laughed at. Fan Dong can’t even afford the taxi fare now. Left the noisy venue alone. This scene, however, seemed out of place. At this time, in the venue. “That guy just now was quite interesting.” I don’t know what Chen Yuanzhe means, and his eyes are staring at the project book in Lu Yiming’s hand intentionally or unintentionally. The man’s intuition told him that this project should be interesting. Lu Yiming knew Chen Yuanzhe’s character very well. He immediately put the project book behind him and didn’t give Chen Yuanzhe any chance. “Mr. Lu, you are being stingy. They must have paid a huge price for this project.” “How did Mr. Chen know?” “I just noticed that the person has been asked to leave by the organizer.” Chen Yuanzhe was able to observe things so carefully despite his busy schedule, which indeed showed his strong insight. Unfortunately, Lu Yiming also observed this. As for Su Rongrong on the side, she was enjoying watching the show. Why does it feel like there’s a lot of gay love between Gou Shixi and Chen Yuanzhe? Could it be that I am too sensitive? “Do you know why he gave me the project book?” “Mr. Lu has a unique vision. I admire this too.” “Wrong.” “Wrong?” Such a denial actually aroused Chen Yuanzhe’s interest. To be honest, there are not many investors and institutions in China that can arouse Chen Yuanzhe’s interest. Lu Yiming is definitely one of them. Chen Yuanzhe has studied Lu Yiming’s investment in the Xiaolingtong project. To be honest, it shows that he has extremely strong vision, means and abilities. Every step was calculated to perfection. In fact, Xiao Di doesn’t even have a chance to regret. Lu Yiming was able to achieve this because he had calculated everything. Even if he were to handle it himself, he would not be able to do better. It’s a pity that this guy doesn’t seem to be interested in this. It was a rare occasion when I felt the desire to win, but this guy actually switched to the Internet industry. This made Chen Yuanzhe very unhappy. Of course, Su Rongrong is also rare, but as a gentleman, I can’t compete with Su Rongrong. “It seems you missed the point.” “What’s the meaning?” “Mr. Chen, our positions are different.” The corner of Lu Yiming’s mouth raised, revealing a beautiful arc. Yes, Lu Yiming admits that Chen Yuanzhe is capable, but it’s a pity that he currently represents foreign capital. “Actually, I’m quite curious too.” At this moment, Su Rongrong also responded. To be honest, that person just now also left a deep impression on Su Rongrong. Su Rongrong: He must be at his wits’ end. In this day and age, starting a business is not an easy thing. Business is easy, but innovation is difficult. More importantly, Su Rongrong had just noticed the project book in Lu Yiming’s hand. It always looks familiar. Later I thought about it, isn’t this the same creative book that Gou Sisi gave me at that time? The project book consisting of A4 paper was used to defraud 200 million yuan in investment from me. And the project book in front of me is exactly the same. Perhaps, it’s another surprise? “Are you interested too?” When Lu Yiming turned to Su Rongrong, his tone of voice also changed. “certainly.” “Then let’s study it together.” Chen Yuanzhe: (ˉ▽ˉ;)… I am him… Can you be a little more double standard? That’s what I meant just now, okay? Why don’t you, Lu Yiming, have this attitude when facing yourself? Chen Yuanzhe: A dog licker! Lu Yiming: Can it be the same? Su Rongrong will never escape from my control in this life! We are a family, so of course we shouldn’t have different opinions! As for you, Chen Yuanzhe. Ha, the last life is the last life. In this life, it is not certain whether we will interact in the future! I was born in the year of the dog, and I change my mind faster than turning the pages of a book! Besides, you stared at Su Rongrong right from the start, and you still want me to be nice to you? Dream on! If it were someone else, Lu Yiming might have already fired at him. However, Lu Yiming did not really do anything extreme. He was just teaching Chen Yuanzhe a lesson. It’s not impossible for Chen Yuanzhe to watch it if he wants to. Moreover, if it was really the reason he thought of, even if Chen Yuanzhe personally gave the money, it was still unknown whether the other party would agree. “chip?” There are only two words on the second page of the project book. 【chip】! this… Lu Yiming felt his breathing stagnate. It turned out to be a chip project. In this day and age, there are probably very few people who can think of this project in advance. “hiss…” At this moment, even Chen Yuanzhe took a breath of cold air. Chip, no wonder, no wonder the other party was coming for Lu Yiming. To be honest, if it were me, there is no way I would be able to get the project book in my hands. However, it is almost an impossible task to develop this thing in the country. Chen Yuanzhe judges this project from the perspective of this era. To be honest, the chip industry in the 1990s was completely monopolized by foreign countries. There is not even a shadow of the domestic chip industry yet. Computers and the Internet were just getting started, and were far behind the pace of foreign countries, not to mention the most critical core areas. Chen Yuanzhe could fully foresee the final outcome of this project. Nothing happens. In the end, not even a splash could be made. What a pity. The idea is indeed good, but it is a pity that it was born at the wrong time. Chen Yuanzhe sentenced Fan Dong to death with just two words. However, Lu Yiming seemed to have other ideas. “Sorry, I need some quiet time.” Holding the project book in his hand, Lu Yiming was filled with emotion. Could it be that I really have met someone with the same ideals as me?
