Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 861: Chapter 859: King

The Black Rose Company was still discussing.

But after going back and forth, they still couldn’t reach a conclusion.

Whatever they do, the focus ultimately shifts back to money!

In the end, they could only come up with a lousy idea: ”President Xue, actually, there’s no rush. I believe we’re not the only ones troubled by this issue; Lu Xiaobu must be as well. So why don’t we just wait and see?”

”Hmm, that works!” Black Rose agreed without blushing!

Once you follow once, you might as well follow twice; eventually, you get used to it!

...

Just as the Black Rose Company predicted.

It’s not just Black Rose facing this issue; the Lu Group also has to deal with it.

Liang Lan was just as busy as Black Rose!

However, the only good thing was that the Lu Group had a backup plan; they could raise funds!

Though, they really didn’t want to use this option!

Once you involve other investors, no matter how well the contract is written, it would still inevitably have an impact!

”Young Master, what should we do?”

Liang Lan asked Lu Xiaobu.

The discussions in the company had made some minor progress, but still, none of them were foolproof solutions!

”Let’s wait and see, I don’t have a good idea right now.”

Lu Xiaobu shook his head and said.

Back on Earth, it was more or less the same situation. They solved it by raising funds and throwing money at the problem.

But it’s different here; due to their early aggressive red envelope strategies, people have become desensitized to them.

This is also why the Black Rose Company later needed five or even ten times the funds to break even with the Lu Group!

To win now, they must find a new way!

He thought about asking the system, but considering the system’s intelligence, he decided, forget it!

System: ”...” What did I do to deserve this? Although I probably wouldn’t come up with a solution, there’s no need to insult me! Forget it, I can’t win a verbal battle, I might as well read a novel in peace!

Unable to think of anything, Lu Xiaobu couldn’t be bothered to try, thinking there had to be a way forward eventually. At worst, they’d abandon ride-hailing and switch to a shared bike service!

”Second brother, where are you going?”

Out of the corner of his eye, Lu Xiaobu spotted the sneaky Lu Wenhuo and immediately shouted.

”Me? I’m going to work!”

Lu Wenhuo’s face showed a hint of panic as he covered with an excuse and hurried out.

Oh no! How did Lu Xiaobu spot me again!

He clearly wanted to stay out of his sight!

Yet, he was spotted again, and now things were going to get messy!

Watching Lu Wenhuo leave, Lu Xiaobu squinted slightly, stroked his chin, and revealed a playful smile: ”Going to work? You think I’m an idiot!”

He remembered the last time Lu Wenhuo had that expression, it was when he was dating that bimbo.

Which means his second brother is in love again?!

Could it be... that short-haired girl from last time?!

Most likely!

So, he decided!

To follow him!

...

Along the way, Lu Wenhuo was obviously being cautious of Lu Xiaobu, taking a winding route rather than a straight path.

But he didn’t consider that his cat-and-mouse counter-surveillance skills learned from some random website could match up to Zhang Meng?!

So!

The way was clear and unimpeded!

Soon, they arrived at a remote suburb.

Before they even got close, they heard bursts of shouting.

”Number Eleven! Number Eleven!”

”Go Number Seven!”

”The championship is ours!”

”Charge!”

”Crush him!”

”I’m betting everything on you, Number Eight! Go!”

”Kill it!”

”...”

Along with the shouting, continuous motorbike roars could be heard!

By the looks of it, this seemed like an underground motorcycle race!

Lu Xiaobu didn’t approach immediately but instead searched for Lu Wenhuo in the crowd. Immediately, he spotted him on the edge of the track, talking to a motorbike rider.

Even though the rider was wearing a helmet, it was clearly a female rider!

The number on the motorcycle was eight!

Without any surprise, it had to be her!

Little did he know, he was trying to hide from me?!

Lu Xiaobu grinned: ”Zhang Meng, find a good spot, make sure my second brother doesn’t spot me.”

”Yes, sir!”

Zhang Meng quickly nodded and began surveying the terrain.

The area was surrounded by mountains, so finding a good vantage point wasn’t difficult.

As for the distance issue, they didn’t worry because they had brought binoculars!

...

In the race zone.

Looking through the helmet, it was obvious that the girl inside was indeed the short-haired girl from that day!

”Lingling, make sure you stay safe!”

Lu Wenhuo said earnestly.

”Got it, got it. Did I find a boyfriend or a mom? Why so naggy?”

The short-haired girl rolled her eyes, slightly impatient.

”Alright then.”

Lu Wenhuo sighed and said a bit dejectedly.

Having been hurt before, he was quite sensitive!

”Relax! Look at you, acting like a little wife!” The short-haired girl rolled her eyes again, suddenly let go of the motorcycle handlebars, then grabbed Lu Wenhuo’s head and pressed their helmets together: ”I promise, safety first, okay?”

”Okay!”

Only then did Lu Wenhuo regain his composure and nodded.

”Wang Ling, enough already! This isn’t the place for you to show off your affection. If you’re going to flaunt it, go back to your room!”

Suddenly, a man’s voice came from the side!

Following the voice, it was a man whose neck had a skull decoration, wearing a stud earring, with a head of blond hair, dressed in leather pants and a leather jacket!

”Screw you! Mind your own business, why do you care if I show off my love?!”

Wang Ling, the short-haired girl, lifted the visor of her helmet and shouted at the blond: ”A loser who can’t even beat me dares to talk trash?!”

She had an audacious personality and couldn’t care less!

”You! Fine! I’ll make you lose thoroughly today!” The blond became furious: ”Don’t forget your bet!”

”I always honor my bets and accept my losses! But are you sure you can win?!” Wang Ling sneered, full of disdain!

”Bring me my helmet!” The blond shouted angrily and extended his hand toward a scantily-clad woman next to him.

The woman took out a shiny yellow helmet, kissed it, and handed it to the blond!

The blond gave Wang Ling a provocative look, put on the helmet, and mounted the motorcycle!

His motorcycle number was unmistakably one!

Moreover, as soon as he mounted the bike, the rowdy shouts became a unified chant: ”King! King! King! King!”

King, in English, means Wang!
