Damn, that's a brilliant idea!
The Gu family has plenty of money and connections; opening a car like this is child's play for them!
With a slap of his thigh, Gu Huainan immediately made his decision, "Okay, I agree!"
"Don't rush!"
Lu Yi's real purpose is yet to come.
"Every directly operated store and franchised store must have a beverage shop on the first floor. I'll tell you the new shop name after I've thought it through!"
Where is the wisest place for an ambitious person with no start-up capital to begin their rise to success?
Of course, it's about catching the capitalists' get-rich-quick train!
Lu Yi did some research on the prominent families in Jiangzhou, and two of them particularly caught his eye.
One is the Lin family.
The other one is Gu Jia.
Upon hearing this, even Gu Huainan, with his slow reaction time, finally snapped back to reality.
"So, you, Lu Yi, are you trying to use the Gu family's money to create your own beverage shop brand?"
Lu Yi remained noncommittal and got up to look out the window.
"Gu Huainan, if I write this project as a feasibility study, do you think you'll still have the opportunity to doubt my intentions here?"
Gu Huainan was secretly taken aback.
That's absolutely true!
The Lu family, the Lin family, the Gu family, the Fan family, and other low-profile families, outwardly appear amicable but secretly plot to fight to the death to seize a new blue ocean!
The Lu and Lin families are about to form a marriage alliance, while the Gu and Fan families haven't even shown any signs of doing so yet.
If Gu Huaibei, the eldest brother, can't win over Fan Huijun, the Lin family will take advantage of the situation. At that time, the three families will join forces to isolate the Gu family...
Gu Huainan dared not think any further.
It's time to launch a project to test the waters and let my father see my potential as soon as possible.
Even if we take a step back and say...
Lu Han always boasts in front of others about how high-end and innovative his "jewelry brand" is, but so far there has been no progress whatsoever.
Whether it's true or false remains to be seen.
Lu Yi's idea, though seemingly aimed at securing benefits for himself, actually kept all the initiative in his own hands.
What could be a more stable partnership than one where interests are intertwined?
When the bodyguard who came to collect the money entered, he saw the two men who had just tried to strangle each other scribbling on the floor and didn't know what to say.
"How much was taken?"
Gu Huainan saw that his vertical addition was obscured by the bodyguard's shadow, so he didn't even look up and waved for him to step back.
"two thousand."
"Give it to him, you can go out now!"
"Second Young Master, are you alright?"
"Just leave when I tell you to! Stop with the nonsense!"
Gu Huainan felt that the first phase of his dream business empire was about to be realized, and he had no mind to think about anything else.
When Lu Yi got home, it was already three in the morning.
Gu Huainan personally drove him downstairs, and he was speechless at the sight of the dilapidated and crowded environment of the community.
"Brother Yi, you live here?"
Lu Yi did not answer.
"You know there's a villa complex where the Jiangzhou River bends, right? I'll have someone bring you the keys another day, and you can stay in one of my villas!"
"What a terrible place! It's so hard to even turn a car around. I really don't know how you guys put up with this..."
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly looked up and was startled by a white shadow in the headlights ahead of the car.
Holy crap!
This neighborhood is haunted!
The white figure tilted its head, approached step by step, and bent down to feel around on the license plate.
Just as Lu Yi was about to get out of the car, he saw this bizarre scene and unconsciously withdrew his hand.
"What's going on? You can see it too?"
Gu Huainan felt the hairs on the back of his head stand on end and nudged Lu Yi's arm.
The next second, Bai Ying straightened up, climbed onto the hood, and shouted at the two of them face to face, "Gu Huainan! Lu Yi!"
Gu Huainan then realized that this strange-looking fellow was actually his younger sister, Gu Keke!
Gu Keke was wearing a white dress with two panels that shimmered in the dark, exuding an air of nobility with a hint of eeriness.
Lu Yi sighed and muttered under his breath, "Why is it her again!"
Gu Huainan got out of the car angrily and lifted the person off the hood.
"What time is it? Why aren't you sleeping at home? What are you doing here?!"
Gu Keke was not to be outdone.
"Second brother, you're one to talk! What were you doing sneaking around like that? Why was Lu Yi in your car? I've been waiting downstairs at his house for four hours!"
The barrage of questions left Gu Huainan speechless.
He then remembered that he had brought Lu Yi here today to inquire about "Lu Xiaoman".
Having been led around by the nose by Lu Yi all night, he completely forgot about his own business!
Remembering Lu Han's earlier hint, Gu Huainan stuck his head into the car and asked curiously.
"Lu Yi, is your nickname Xiaoman?"
Before Lu Yi could answer, Gu Keke put her hands on her hips, her face flushed red.
"Second brother, what are you saying!"
"Lu Xiaoman is my child with Lu Yi, but the baby hasn't been born yet!"
Gu Huainan's heart pounded wildly, and his body froze on the spot.
Lu Yi stared blankly the whole time, finding it hard to understand what was going on in this fairy-like girl's head.
Thus, the bloodshed caused by "Lu Xiaoman" finally came to an end.
Watching Gu Huainan drive away like a drunkard, Lu Yi turned and went upstairs.
After walking a few steps, I suddenly bumped into a chest as solid as a copper wall!
"Kid, I really underestimated you!"
"I thought you were going to fail this time, so I even picked out a lucky spot for you. I never expected you to use such ease to win over both of the Gu siblings in one fell swoop!"
Du Guanglong put his arm around Lu Yi's shoulder and patted him hard on the back a few times.
