Lu Yang neither confirmed nor denied this. As long as they could make money together, he was willing to participate in major project decisions. He was happy to be a hands-off manager in other matters, provided that Li Chen didn't cause any major trouble.
Since Li Chen was unwilling to talk about it, he stopped asking.
The renovation of the third floor is already halfway done, and it will be completely finished in another half month.
We'll open the windows and doors then to let in some fresh air.
It should be ready to open in about 3 months.
Lu Yang briefly explained the matter of preparing goods for this trip south to Li Chen, who nodded in satisfaction after listening.
“I trust you to handle things, and I’m not worried about you doing anything sabotage behind my back. After all, you own half the shares here. If we win, we all profit; if we lose, we all lose together.”
Li Chen spoke casually, his hands in his pockets as he watched the man in front of him work.
Ji Kang ran over to greet Lu Yang, then went off to attend to other matters.
He spun around the mall like a top, giving instructions every now and then, and was extremely busy.
Lu Yao simply rolled up his sleeves and went over to help, while Li Chenzi sat in the corner with a cigarette in his mouth and yawned.
It was almost dark when Li Chen finally called Lu Yang away so they could go out for dinner together.
Lu Yang called Cheng Lin, and when they arrived at the restaurant, Cheng Lin had already arrived first.
He seemed a little distracted, after all, his wedding was the day after tomorrow.
When a major moment in life is approaching, there's always a mix of nervousness and anticipation.
Lu Yang patted him on the shoulder and teased him with a smile, "I heard a saying when I was in the South, called the last hurrah before the wedding."
"After we get married, we'll have to take care of our families and won't have time to go out drinking with our buddies all the time, so let's drink our fill today."
Cheng Lin also thought it made sense; Xu Huiying disliked him drinking the most.
He definitely won't be able to drink like this after he gets married.
So he put aside his apprehension, picked up his glass, and drank with Lu Yang and Li Chen until they were completely drunk.
Lu Yang vaguely remembered that it was Li Chen who took the two of them to the perfume bar to rest.
When they both woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
Cheng Lin drank a bowl of hangover tea, let out a burp, and said, "I need to arrange a car."
“We’ve already rented 10 cars, all of them are Hongqi brand.”
"I need to confirm that I can definitely rent these cars."
Lu Yang smiled and patted his shoulder: "I'll go to the mall first. If there's enough time, I'll come find you at the parking lot."
Cheng Lin quickly waved his hand: "You go ahead with your business. As long as you can come on the actual day tomorrow, that's fine."
After saying that, he strolled out the door, got on his motorcycle, and rode away.
Lu Yang stretched and saw that Li Chen showed no sign of leaving.
He was somewhat surprised, but he didn't think much of it. He greeted Li Chen and headed towards the mall.
Nothing happened inside the mall, which only made Lu Yang more uneasy.
Zheng Wei also mentioned that He Yunwei's employees had been frequently going to the building materials market these past few days.
He had followed them a few times; those young men had all bribed people to replace the building materials Ji Kang had ordered with a mix of good and bad ones.
They want to use inferior materials and cheat on their building materials.
However, Zheng Wei secretly checked the materials they had transported from the building materials market and found that there was nothing wrong with them.
Zheng Wei was also completely bewildered; he couldn't understand what was going on.
So he told Lu Yang about it. Lu Yang took a moment to process it before he immediately thought of the outside help that Li Chen had found.
Perhaps the foreign player was the one who switched things, but he felt that Li Chen was definitely not the kind of person who would settle things quietly.
Why would he secretly have the building materials replaced with better ones?
Instead of bribing that guy and exposing the fact that the building materials supplier was trying to rip them off?
Lu Yang was a little confused, but he felt relieved knowing that someone was now involved in the matter.
He planned to just watch coldly and see what other tricks He Yunwei intended to pull next.
The next morning, Cheng Lin and Xu Huiying got married, and Lu Yang and Li Chen went there early.
Li Chen even brought several of his subordinates to help. The group first went to the Xu family to pick up the bride, then rushed to the restaurant. After all that, the wedding officially began at 10 a.m.
Lu Yang generously gave 99,999, shocking everyone present.
Li Chen laughed and patted him on the shoulder, saying that he was rich and powerful.
The wedding went smoothly, but after it ended, they faced even more troubles.
Rumors have been circulating that Lu Yang only got the project because of nepotism.
Deputy Director Shen must have tried to suppress the matter, but he couldn't.
Lu Yang couldn't help but sigh. The best way to suppress one rumor is to create another.
He thought for a moment, and since He Yunwei was the one who did it, he might as well report it to the authorities.
He asked Li Chen, "What embarrassing past does He Yunwei have? Tell that story and make He Yunwei feel bad for a while."
“He Yunwei slandered him, but he would never slander others.”
"Even when spreading rumors, they should be seven parts truth and three parts falsehood, to have a certain degree of credibility."
Li Chen thought about it carefully and suddenly laughed: "I didn't originally plan to use this method to deal with him, but this guy has crossed the line. He spread rumors about you first, so we might as well teach him a lesson."
As Lu Yang spoke, he looked at Li Chen, who took a newspaper out of his bag and handed it to Lu Yang.
Lu Yang opened the newspaper and saw a large headline: A fire broke out at the entrance of a bar on its opening day.
There was a familiar-looking boy's shadow in the photo.
