Chapter 97 The Fallen White Moonlight Returns Home 11

Inside the building opposite the Lu Group.

The man, dressed in a suit and tie, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a cup of bitter-smelling coffee. He lowered his eyes and took in everything that was happening in front of the Lu Group's gate, his brows slightly furrowed.

"He actually came back."

“Isn’t this a good thing? You were worried that the Lu Group’s project would unite the Gu and Shen families. Now that he’s back, even if we do nothing, they will fight each other to the death.” The assistant stood behind him and said respectfully, “Beauty can lead to trouble. It has always been so. You are different from them, sir. You are destined to achieve great things.”

The man raised his long eyebrows, squinted, took a sip of coffee, and curled his thin lips in a mocking smile: "He's still the same as before, always showing off his legs in front of men."

“Okay, I admit it, I am quite fair-skinned.” The man added in a mocking tone.

The assistant remained silent.

"Get ready, Lu's Group is bidding today, how can we not watch the excitement?" The man put down his coffee cup and straightened his bow tie.

The assistant hesitated, then said nothing in the end.

...

The company's printer seems to be broken.

Xie Rong, holding a glass of orange juice, huddled in a corner, watching the repairman and the employee printing documents sweat profusely as they slowly unplugged and plugged the printer in repeatedly.

He secretly curled the corners of his mouth.

These people are so stupid, they can't even tell that the plug isn't working.

[The meeting is about to start, where are we?]

Lu Baichi sent a message.

Xie Rong had read the message but did not reply, seemingly lost in thought.

If today's bidding meeting is completely disrupted, the main storyline will be completely ruined.

Only the system would be foolish enough to think that he wanted to steal important documents in order to advance the plot.

The bidding meeting was held in the multimedia conference room on the next floor. When Xie Rong arrived, the conference room was already mostly full of people.

He pushed open the door, and the meeting room fell silent for a moment.

Lu Baichi blocked the gloomy gazes of the crowd, stepped forward, took his hand, and led him away.

From the crowd, Gu Yuyan let out a cold laugh, his gaze dark as he stared at the two holding hands.

"President Lu, today is a bidding conference, not a place for you to be all lovey-dovey." He suddenly spoke up.

Lu Baichi gripped Xie Rong's hand tightly, turned his head and said calmly, "He is a major shareholder holding one-third of the group's shares, and he is qualified to sit here. If you have any objections, turn left and leave.

Gu Yuyan's eyes were filled with anger, and he was about to explode when his assistant quickly held him down.

"Why are you pulling me?!" Gu Yuyan shouted angrily, kicking the table in front of him.

That bastard Lu Baichi actually misinterpreted his meaning right in front of him and tried to sow discord between Xie Rong and Xie Rong!

He just couldn't stand Lu Baichi showing off his affection here, and he said he wouldn't let Xie Rong stay here.

Gu Yuyan suppressed his anger and looked longingly in Xie Rong's direction.

Unfortunately, just as he expected, Xie Rong only gave him a cold glance before looking away.

She must be holding a grudge against him!

[Don't be upset, host. The system will play along.]

Xie Rong sat in the middle of the first row, his eyes still cold.

He knew it; the main characters actually disliked him and had been working together to play him for a fool! The last time Gu Yuyan came to have an affair with him, it must have been planned by the two of them.

Xie Rong lowered his head, his eyelids reddened with resentment.

If you want to see him make a fool of himself, don't blame him for turning these annoying guys into jokes.

"Haven't you always been interested in this new project?" Lu Baichi squeezed his fingertips and squatted down beside him.

Xie Rong leaned back in the sofa chair, slightly annoyed: "They're so noisy."

“It’s inevitable in bidding and tendering,” Lu Baichi patiently coaxed him. “If Gu Yuyan makes you unhappy, just ignore him. Kick him out after the meeting.”

Look, still putting on an act. Xie Rong thought coldly.

"Understood," Xie Rong said, withdrawing his hand.

"Mr. Lu, almost everyone has arrived," the assistant approached, glanced at Xie Rong, and then subtly looked away.

"Call me anytime if you need anything," Lu Baichi whispered, then stood up, his cold demeanor returning as he strode onto the stage.

The seat next to Xie Rong was empty, but after Xie Rong rested his chin on his hand and closed his eyes to doze off for three minutes, someone took his place.

"Xie Rong?" The man's slightly dismissive voice rang in his ear.

Xie Rong opened her eyes, glanced at the man sideways, and ignored him.

He looked vaguely familiar, but he couldn't even remember the names of the people outside the main group.

“Look, you’re looking at me with those seductive eyes again,” the man tapped his fingertips on the armrest between them. “Five years ago, when you deliberately chose the bed above me, I told you that I’m not the kind of man like Lu Baichi who’s easy to get. I won’t let you get me just because you have white legs, a slim waist, and are more delicate than a princess.”

Xie Rong blinked in confusion: "Who are you?"

"..."

The meeting had already begun. The man lowered his voice and narrowed his eyes dangerously: "Is this the 'playing hard to get' trick you learned abroad? You deliberately sent me your address yesterday, and today you're pretending not to remember me. Is this all you've learned in five years?"

"Of course, if you send me the address again tonight, I might accept your invitation."

Xie Rong, expressionless, slapped the man hard across the face in front of everyone.

“Of course it’s more than that,” Xie Rong said, raising his chin slightly. Although he didn’t quite understand the man’s words, it didn’t stop him from looking down at the man’s stunned expression. He raised one thin eyebrow and spoke in a nasty tone, “But it’s more than enough to deal with you, isn’t it?”

The man valued his reputation highly. With so many people looking over, his usually arrogant and handsome face looked rather ugly, as if he was furious, and bloodshot eyes ran down his neck to the back of his ears.

Even his usually eloquent and eloquent mouth was clenched tightly by him.

The man's assistant, standing to his right, carefully handed Xie Rong a business card, saying, "Mr. Xie, this is our boss's business card. Our company is right across from Lu's, on the same floor. You are welcome to visit us anytime."

Xie Rong took it and glanced at it.

Teng Hui Group CEO: Xing Xuan.

The man beside him straightened his back and curled his lips into a smile: "You can even look at a business card for this long?"

Xie Rong glanced at him.

No wonder he's so disliked; he's the second villain in the storyline, the one the main characters team up to take down.

Of course, he is the main villain.

The Xing family is different from business giants like the Gu, Chen, and Xie families, and it is also unlike the Lu family, which rose from humble beginnings overnight. The Xing family is a family that has been passed down from their ancestors. They have always been proud and do not associate with businessmen. They are complacent and fall behind without realizing it.

Xie Rong finally remembered that there was indeed such a person in high school.

Every time someone tries to show off, they have to pass in front of him. They wear modified school uniforms and have hair gel at a young age. They always force classmates to give up their seats and sit in front of them, making it impossible for him to see the blackboard.

Don't think he doesn't know; he's just trying to steal his thunder!

Xie Rong hates these kinds of despicable men who try to steal his thunder! And if you can't beat him, what's the point of pretending?
