Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 185: Chapter 185: I’m Here to Discuss Cooperation with You_1

Mr. Sun Xiangdong was having breakfast.

He was a person who placed great emphasis on health and wellness, so his breakfast was later than most people’s, but it was much more sumptuous.

He ate very slowly, chewing his food carefully and swallowing leisurely, and what he disliked the most during the meal was being interrupted.

This habit was so well known that even the people at his company were aware of it.

Thus, during this time slot, basically no one dared to call him.

However, today, just when Mr. Sun was half done with his meal, his mobile phone rang.

Mr. Sun Xiangdong’s face immediately darkened, and he picked up the phone, visibly displeased.

The household servants couldn’t help but tense up.

They were about to witness a ”storm.” Although it wasn’t directed at them, once Mr. Sun’s mood flared up, after hanging up the phone, it was inevitable that he might take his anger out on someone.

Who could be calling at such a time? They had got to be clueless!

The servants couldn’t help but curse under their breath, bracing themselves mentally.

Unexpectedly, the instant Mr. Sun Xiangdong saw the caller’s name, the gloom on his face immediately dissipated like winter snow under the blazing sun, and a warm smile replaced it.

”Oh, Assistant Zhang, what can I do for you?”

Mr. Sun Xiangdong was polite, even to an assistant.

The servants exchanged glances, filled with astonishment.

”Oh, Wei Tianhou wants to meet me? Is it about the concert, needing to adjust the time?” Mr. Sun Xiangdong’s brow furrowed slightly but quickly melted into a smile, ”Sure, sure, no problem! As long as Wei Tianhou is willing to hold the concert on the day at Xiangdong Plaza, the mere matter of timing is trivial. We will comply with Wei Tianhou’s wishes! As for the public? Don’t worry, I’ll handle it! We’ll just say that the time released to the public was a mistake made by our staff members. Totally no issue!”

Mr. Sun Xiangdong’s eagerness was palpable, ”Alright, I will bring my son over for a chat shortly. Good, that’s settled!”

Overhearing the conversation, the servants revealed a hint of understanding in their eyes.

The call was from Wei Moran, Wei Tianhou’s assistant.

No wonder Mr. Sun was in such a good mood.

A diva is truly a diva; even bringing up a last-minute change in the performance schedule didn’t upset Mr. Sun in the slightest.

While the servants were reflecting on this,

Mr. Sun Xiangdong quite out of character, quickly finished the rest of his breakfast in just a few bites, got up, wiped his mouth, and instructed the butler, ”Go, have Yiran get ready. I will take him to meet Wei Tianhou shortly!”

The servant hurried off to attend to the matter.

Mr. Sun Xiangdong look at his phone and couldn’t help but let out a self-deprecating laugh.

”Not to mention changing the time, even if Wei Tianhou decided not to perform at all, I would still have to maintain a courteous demeanor, all smiles. This is the power of family background! In fact, just by leveraging her fame these days, we’ve already made our gains!”

At that moment, Sun Yiran was not yet awake.

These days, he had been bustling about with his father, earning the high praise of everyone, and he was brimming with confidence.

But with so many social engagements, it was exhausting, and he would inevitably sleep in a bit longer in the morning.

When the servant woke him up, Sun Yiran was still sleepy, but as soon as the servant spoke, he immediately became alert and started to freshen up swiftly.

”The master said, he wants you to accompany him to meet Miss Wei Moran shortly.”

These words were like a spell; the very thought of Wei Moran’s noble demeanor and stunning beauty had Sun Yiran energized as if he had received an adrenaline shot.

Mr. Sun Xiangdong waited for twenty minutes before Sun Yiran came downstairs.

Seeing his son looking graceful and appropriately dressed, Mr. Sun Xiangdong felt no irritation, only satisfaction.

Afterward, they drove off toward Mingzhu Tower.

Little did Mr. Sun Xiangdong know, as their car passed by a cafe near the city center,

In the café, Bai Xiaosheng was sitting there.

Opposite Bai Xiaosheng was a man with a compelling presence and a ramrod-straight posture—Lu Qingfeng.

Both of them were drinking coffee.

”Qingfeng, luckily you’re still in Tiannan; otherwise, I would’ve had to talk with sister Wenqian,” said Bai Xiaosheng with a grin.

After losing the bet, Lu Qingfeng had publicly called him ”Brother Bai”.

However, hearing Bai Xiaosheng address him so impolitely, as if he really was talking to a little brother, caused Lu Qingfeng’s eyelids to twitch involuntarily, but in the end, he said nothing.

”For the sake of this coffee with you, I pushed back at least three meetings. Spit it out, why did you ask me to come here? Why not discuss it at my place?” Lu Qingfeng said.

”Afraid it wouldn’t be convenient,” replied Bai Xiaosheng, his expression unchanged.

The real reason was... this place was closer to where Bai Xiaosheng lived...

Lu Qingfeng sneered, not believing him at all.

”I’ve heard you’ve been having a tough time lately!” There was a hint of schadenfreude in Lu Qingfeng’s eyes. ”I watched that live broadcast, not bad at all. But the chess move your opponents played recently was quite ruthless, even bringing Wei Moran into the game. Honestly, I don’t think you’re going to win this time!”

The Lu Family was a giant in the internet industry, especially dominant in the internet media sector.

Lu Qingfeng, being in Tiannan, knew everything that happened in that tiny place like the back of his hand, including the overt and covert struggle between Teles Square and East Square.

Lu Qingfeng even surmised that the so-called engineering collapse at Teles Square and the media showing up were definitely orchestrated by Xiang Dong.

Honestly, Bai Xiaosheng’s use of live streaming to stem the decline had caught his eye.

But now, Wei Moran’s involvement was tipping the scales too much.

Lu Qingfeng thought, if it were him, using the resources of the Lu Family, he could turn defeat into victory.

But Bai Xiaosheng clearly didn’t have those means.

Putting himself in Bai Xiaosheng’s shoes, Lu Qingfeng’s conclusion was.

Bai Xiaosheng was out of options!

”He’s like me, very competitive and certainly unwilling to admit defeat! By asking me out this time, is he seeking my help?!”

Lu Qingfeng watched Bai Xiaosheng with a smile, feeling his guess was about right.

Bai Xiaosheng, he wanted to make connections, but that once-a-decade promise was ultimately a shackle.

The Lu Family didn’t want it!

”Whether you can win or not, who can say for sure before the end?” Bai Xiaosheng grinned at Lu Qingfeng, ”Look, by getting you, the big young master of the Lu Family, to come out, doesn’t that give me a big extra weight on my side?”

He indeed needs my help!

Lu Qingfeng laughed.

”Bai Xiaosheng, since you put it that way, fine, I’ll help you. But it’ll cost you your once-a-decade promise. Do you agree? If you nod, I’ll spare no expense to help you win! If you don’t agree, then I’m sorry, after all, we’re talking about Wei Moran!” Lu Qingfeng sighed.

”You could never imagine how strong her power is!”

Is that so? Bai Xiaosheng smiled silently.

How strong can she be? I’m still the one who saved her life, and she’s willing to skip her concert to help me. Do you know about that?

Bai Xiaosheng scratched his face with a hand, his demeanor languid.

This attitude frustrated yet amused Lu Qingfeng.

”Do you agree or not?” asked Lu Qingfeng.

Logically speaking, Bai Xiaosheng agreeing was not likely; Lu Qingfeng just wanted to squeeze him a bit, then help as much as possible.

”Qingfeng, do you think I came to ask for your help?” Bai Xiaosheng laughed, ”You’re wrong! This time, I came to discuss a partnership with you!”
