Bab 20: A Passable Encounter
Editor: TheSloth
"I’m going on a spontaneous trip and will be back soon. Don’t worry about me."
Ren Ziling received such a message while she was busy looking over the manuscripts. She was stunned for a second, then banged the table and stood up angrily, "Damn brat, there you go again! You think you’re all grown up, eh?"
Ren Ziling called him at once.
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable…"
"F*ck!!!"
Finally, Ren Ziling could not help but sit down. During her many years in the industry, she had learned how to control her temper well. ‘F*ck’ might be her limit.
…
…
As for Luo Qiu, he was finding his seat after being guided by the air stewardess, with You Ye by his side.
You Ye was wearing sun protective clothing instead of her usual maid outfit. A light green cardigan, and white casual jeans with silver flat shoes..
It gave her a different feeling.
Though he didn't say that he'd go to You Ye's room, but her wardrobe should be full.
Accompanying by a female companion, the air-hostess revealed more passion to them. But apparently, the business class was more exquisite than tourist class.
The auction would be held in another city---out of the province.
It was over the moving range of Luo Qiu, so he had to go there by vehicles--- For a round trip within one day and having enough time to rest, after learning the economic position of the club along with the fastest speed of Zhong Luochen's return, Luo Qiu chose the air directly.
This task was assigned to You Ye, because she should have done a lot of similar works in the social acitivities these years.
Anyway, Luo Qiu didn't worry about anything before he sat on the seat of the first-class cabin.
"Luo Qiu?"
Someone was calling Luo Qiu just as he was about to close his eyes and have a good rest.
It was his acquaintance---Zhang Qingrui, the manager of Gu Yue Zhai.
Zhang Qingrui was alone, holding her handbag, cellphone and the boarding pass. Looking at him, she frowned and asked, "Are you going to the auction?"
He wasn’t surprised at her question. Because they just met at Gu Yue Zhai yesterday, so she obviously would connect these two events.
Luo Qiu nodded.
Zhang Qingrui maintained her polite attitude. "Is this… your partner?"
"You Ye…" Luo Qiu nodded and introduced her. Then added, "She will be with me for a long time."
"She’s so beautiful." Zhang Qingrui smiled slightly.
Females tended to compare with other counterparts, no matter it was a strong thought or not, intentional or spontaneous. She was shocked and jealous of the lady that had all the advantages of both eastern and western females.
Like roses on a high mountain, the special feel had Zhang Qingrui threw more attention to her. However, after hearing Luo Qiu’s eccentric reply, Zhang Qingrui laughed, "Then I won’t bother you two. Anyway, what about following me to the auction site? It’ll save you a lot of trouble, because I’m with the sponsor."
She didn't think of that if Luo Qiu could afford it--- Actually there would always be more viewers than purchasers in an auction. Someone went there just for joining in the fun. Moreover, due to the classmate relations, Zhang Qingrui didn't hope to show an arrogant imprssion to him.
Luo Qiu thought for a second, "Alright."
Zhang Qingrui went back to her seat.
You Ye whispered to Luo Qiu near his ear, "Master, this lady’s soul is so beautiful."
Luo Qiu gave a start, but said nothing---You Ye was hinting that he should make her a member of the club.
However, Luo Qiu didn’t have any plans to do so. He didn’t want a person, who knew both Ren Ziling and him, to join the club. Because it would put him in a difficult position if he met Zhang Qingrui with the identity of the boss.
"We can talk about it later."
Luo Qiu then closed his eyes.
Their intimate behaviour was captured by the air stewardess---In the meantime she felt amazing to the dreamy beautiful girl, both of them had their own thought.
She was jealous of You Ye’s beauty. Zhang Qingrui, on the other hand, felt odd that someone would have a crush on Luo Qiu, who was always cold to others.
He must be her true love. And some women with fantasy of love affair blessed them in heart.
They had no conversation during the flight. After the airplane landed, Luo Qiu and You Ye followed Zhang Qingrui to the auction site.
The car at the opposite side had stopped, followed by the other car left from this side just now.
They went to different places at the same time.
At the same time, in the Zhong’s family villa in the capital city.
"Cheng Yun, get ready and wait for me here." Zhong Luochen ordered him, then hurried into the villa.
Cheng Yun didn’t dare disobey him, taking out his cellphone and dispatching employees, while monitoring the villa---which he still wasn’t eligible to enter.
Zhong Luochen came back to check on his grandfather who was in critical condition.
Cheng Yun’s destiny was closely tied to the next leader of the Zhong family. Although his descendants were all charismatic, the seriously ill old leader hadn’t made a will to designate which one of them will be the successor. So Cheng Yun was afraid of the potential war that would break out after the current leader left.
He was just confused why Zhong Luochen had commanded him to reserve all seats in the first-class cabins for a round trip.
Just then, another car rushed into the villa. Cheng Yun knew another child of the Zhong family came back.
By this time, all of Zhong Luochen’s rivals and the rest of the important family members had gathered together.
"Is the sky going to change [1]?"
Cheng Yun raised his head and looked at the sky, and he swore, "F*ck the damn haze!"
[1] Is the sky going to change: Changes due to the change in leading powerful figures.
Bab 21: The White Jade Token 1st
Editor: TheSloth
“Second Brother, you’re back.”
Zhong Luochen glanced at his sister, but didn’t greet her and instead asked bluntly, “How is our grandfather?”
Her expression didn’t look good. “The doctor said grandfather is drifting in and out of consciousness and is unable to recognize us. He also said that grandfather will leave in about two days.”
Zhong Luochen nodded, then pushed open the door and entered.
There were a group of people gathered around the bed with looks of anxiety. Two doctors and three nurses were paying close attention to the cardiotachometer.
“Luochen, you’re back finally,” A middle aged man with a square face greeted him.
Zhong Luochen nodded, then walked inside---there were plenty of members in Zhong’s family, however, his grandfather had only one son and one daughter.
Zhong Luochen’s father had contracted an unknown disease in his early years. Since then, he was not able to take care of himself. He could only rely on a wheelchair and couldn’t even speak fluently. As for Zhong Luochen’s aunt---his father’s sister, she died of dystocia.
The one that greeted him was his aunt’s husband, Wang Guoli.
“Luochen, your grandfather might…You stay here and accompany your grandfather these few days.” Zhong Luochen’s mother sighed.
Zhong Luochen suddenly said, “Mom, please step aside…Doctors, can you help me transfer my grandfather to another place, please?”
Zhong Luochen’s decisive words shocked everybody there.
“Luochen, are you out of your mind?”
Right then, another child came up---he was the eldest brother, Zhong Luoyun. He said, “The doctors said grandfather is too weak to live much longer. Yet you still want to move him around? Don’t make him suffer!”
“Luochen?” His mother looked at her son in puzzlement.
Zhong Luochen took a deep breath. “Listen, I have no time to explain. But…if you want to save my grandfather’s life, just do what I ask! Don’t hesitate!”
Zhong Luoyun frowned. “We’ve seen all the best doctors already. Do you have any better ideas?”
“I have a way to save his life.” Zhong Luochen shook his head, turning to those doctors, then ordered them in a low voice. “Hurry up! Quickly!”
“Stop!” Zhong Luoyun finally lost his temper and grabbed his brother’s arms, “Luochen, explain it clearly! Or you cannot leave here…I won’t let you take grandfather away! Sister, which side are you on?”
She frowned, “I’m on big brother’s side, but I want to listen to second brother’s explanation. If he has an effective way to save grandfather, I’ll be the first to support him! Second brother, you should explain your reason!”
But how Zhong Luochen explain it? Nobody was going to believe the existence of the club.
“I won’t explain but those who don’t believe me, can follow me.” Zhong Luochen said quickly, “If you listen to me, grandfather will have a chance of surviving, instead of waiting for death here.”
“Anyway, I won’t agree if you don’t explain yourself.” Zhong Luoyun snorted. “You are not able to make such a decision that can represent the entire Zhong family yet!”
That was correct. As per the traditional rule of the family, if the old leader didn’t designate a successor, no one was eligible to make a decision without the majority’s approval.
“Hold on.”
Just then, an elder suddenly spoke up.
The elder’s surname was not “Zhong”, but his position in the Zhong family was extremely high because he had followed grandfather Zhong his entire life. He was even considered as a father in law or grandfather in law by the rest of the Zhong’s family members.
“Grandfather Luo!” Zhong Luochen looked at this elder excitedly.
The elder then said something that the rest didn’t understand. “Luochen, have you seen that person?”
Zhong Luochen nodded.
After hearing this, Mr. Luo’s exultation could be seen on his face. He confidently said, “Don’t stand there! Go help move Old Zhong!”
Unexpectedly, the powerful elder agreed!
Both Zhong Luoyun and his sister were puzzled by the conversation between Zhong Luochen and Mr. Luo.
……
……
Luo Qiu nodded to Zhang Qingrui, thanking her, then got off just outside the auction site.
Zhang Qingrui continued on to the underground car park in the car, while Luo Qiu and You Ye went through the inspection at the entrance.
“The security is so lax.”
You Ye said without care, “Master, if you want that jade token offered at the auction, You Ye can get it easily. The security is far worse than the Louvre Museum in France”
“I know you’ve been to the Louvre Museum, however, I don’t want Zhang Qingrui to get into trouble.” Luo Qiu nodded, “I’m only interested in it, and have no desire to posses it. Furthermore, any kind of objects cannot be tributed unless they are paid as the transaction fee.”
Unless Luo Qiu placed the jade token he obtained into the warehouse, then the jade token would not be considered the transaction fee anymore and cannot be tributed.
“I got it.” You Ye smiled faintly. “So, just get it in a normal way, right?”
“A normal way?” Luo Qiu was stunned, then shook his head. “I know the club has huge amounts of wealth around the world. But as per the rule, these can only be used as transaction goods to close a deal. So I can’t misappropriate those, eh?”
You Ye smiled. “A long time ago, some customers sent You Ye some small gifts.”
