Chapter 115: Chapter 115: This Person Should Be Made a Friend!_1

Lu Yun was taken aback.

He actually allowed Bai Xiaosheng, the young man, to turn the tables on him!

A ten-year promise.

It seemed that this favor wouldn’t be repaid anytime soon.

Lu Yun reflected that from start to finish, he had believed he could dominate the conversation with his experience and methods.

He believed others thought the same!

However, in the end, it was Bai Xiaosheng who emerged victorious.

In this world, favors often diminish over time, but for someone with an extremely unique character like Lu Yun, and his status today, unrepaid favors and promises were like a "shackle" on his heart, only increasing in value over time.

Bai Xiaosheng, you’re ruthless!

As Lu Yun looked at Bai Xiaosheng, admiration flickered in his eyes for the first time, stirred with emotion.

With each new generation comes new talents, each leading for hundreds of years!

It appeared that the era belonging to the young was about to arrive.

Lu Yun couldn’t help but glance at Lu Qingfeng.

Lu Qingfeng gazed at Bai Xiaosheng, his eyes bright.

To the side.

The eyes of Zhengdong Province shimmered with excitement, his fists clenched tightly under the stone table.

Worthy of Bai!

Far from feeling indignant on behalf of the goddess’s father, Zhengdong Province was instead overjoyed for his brother.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled slightly, glancing at Zhengdong Province.

This ten-year promise wasn’t just for himself.

If Zhengdong Province was truly fated to join hands with Lu Wenqian, and if they truly faced obstacles from their families, then this ten-year promise would be Bai Xiaosheng’s sharp weapon gifted to Zhengdong Province!

For a brother, Bai Xiaosheng was willing to use it.

After all, without Zhengdong Province fighting to get that diploma for him years ago, Bai Xiaosheng’s life would have only been tougher.

It wasn’t just Lu Yun who was obsessed with repaying kindness, Bai Xiaosheng was the same!

Of course, if Zhengdong Province and Lu Wenqian managed to have a smooth relationship, then this ten-year promise would be Bai Xiaosheng’s ace in the hole for himself.

With the support of an internet empire’s tycoon, he would have more confidence to vie for the ultimate position of president!

Although he did not know what kinds of difficulties and dangers lay ahead, Bai Xiaosheng always had a premonition that his journey to inheritance would be anything but simple!

That uncle of his—Bai Zhenbei, who in a message claimed to have taken in two children of similar age to him, likely held high positions within the group now, and when they met one day in the future, who knows what the scene would be.

Would they willingly let me inherit the entire Zhenbei Group?

Bai Xiaosheng mused.

"Sheng, your request is well made! To tell the truth, it has surprised me and earned my admiration! Since I, Lu Yun, have promised in front of you youngsters, my word will be as good as gold, and I will not go back on it!" Lu Yun said, looking at him earnestly.

As good as gold.

That was the magnanimity a man who stood at the pinnacle should have!

Bai Xiaosheng was somewhat impressed by Lu Yun’s magnanimity as well.

"Thank you, Uncle Lu," Bai Xiaosheng said with a sincere smile.

At this moment, his heart was also incredibly light, after all, he had acquired a considerable trump card.

Next, everyone enjoyed the view and tea at Qiushui Pavilion, chatting leisurely about interesting stories, the atmosphere relaxed.

When there were no outsiders, Lu Yun would amusingly recount past events. The business wars he had weathered over the years also captured the fascinated attention of the younger generation, prompting hearty laughs from time to time.

Drinking too much tea, one inevitably needed to use the restroom.

Wei Xuelian and Lu Wenqian went first, followed by Bai Xiaosheng and someone from Zhengdong Province. Just as Lu Qingfeng was about to go, Lu Yun gave him a look and stopped him.

Once Bai Xiaosheng and the others were out of earshot, Lu Yun finally asked Lu Qingfeng, "What do you think of Bai Xiaosheng?"

This question seemed to have an evaluative undertone.

In fact, throughout Lu Qingfeng’s life, Lu Yun had always placed great emphasis on his development, occasionally asking him for his opinions on certain people and matters, providing guidance along the way.

"This person possesses a maturity beyond his years, and he’s learned and quick-witted! It’s hard to imagine that he is just a minor project manager on a real estate project. Given his cunning and ability, I think... he’s above me," admitted Lu Qingfeng candidly.

Lu Yun, somewhat taken aback, glanced at Lu Qingfeng and smiled, "Such words are rare from you! Normally you do admire those outstanding geniuses of your age, but you’d never admit to being inferior!"

"I’m sorry to disappoint you."

"No! On the contrary, I’m heartened," Lu Yun said with a smile, patting his son’s shoulder, "Confidence is good, but long-term overconfidence is a hidden danger. You’ve succeeded too often, too easily. I fear that you have not experienced the volatility I have, and that your spirit may become frail to adversity."

Lu Qingfeng smiled sheepishly.

"Now that I hear you say this, I am relieved!" laughed Lu Yun, "Admitting a gap is not shameful, it is a sign of your progress!"

Lu Qingfeng nodded.

"However, Qingfeng, your impressions of Bai Xiaosheng are based only on your brief half-day encounter with him, which is one-sided," Lu Yun remarked thoughtfully, gazing in the direction where Bai Xiaosheng had departed, murmuring, "Knowing both your friends and foes is thought to apply to enemies, but it’s equally applicable to those you find interesting and wish to befriend."

Lu Qingfeng became solemn.

"I’ve looked into Bai Xiaosheng, he was obscure before, working in a small company. A few weeks ago, he joined the leading real estate enterprise Century Construction in Tiannan, and in a key project, he climbed from a minor position to project manager in just two weeks! At Mingzhu Tower, he even forced a rising business star to kneel, not out of despotism, but all for a friend, that guy from Zhengdong Province."

"Such a person, loyal and righteous, I like that!" Lu Yun expressed with feeling.

That’s a revelation!

Lu Qingfeng was somewhat surprised.

"So, I want to befriend him, and I also promised him this ten-year pledge, but in order to fulfill this promise, it will be you going, not me," Lu Yun said, looking at Lu Qingfeng, "I hope that you can become his friend!"

Lu Qingfeng nodded smiling, but then appeared a bit embarrassed.

"I too hope that we can be friends... but for now, we can only be ’enemies’!"

"Oh?" Lu Yun raised an eyebrow.

"He also likes Xuelian, and it seems she doesn’t dislike him either," Lu Qingfeng said sheepishly.

With such an expression, he lacked the mature composure of his usual self, instead resembling a young man experiencing the stirrings of first love.

"Ha ha, a fair maiden is a gentleman’s proper match; a little competition among you young people isn’t a bad thing," Lu Yun laughed heartily.

Gazing in a certain direction, he couldn’t help talking to himself, "This young man, Bai Xiaosheng, has boundless prospects. In the future... he really might be a match for A-Lian."

Even his own father had favorable views of Bai Xiaosheng, which stirred a sense of unwillingness and discontent in Lu Qingfeng.

"When he comes back, I want to compete with him in front of Xuelian, see who’s better," Lu Qingfeng said in a low voice.

Lu Yun barely suppressed a chuckle.

Youth is wonderful!

"Good, this time Dad will support you! Give that Bai Xiaosheng a good challenge! Hmph, we can’t let him come into our house and just take advantage," Lu Yun declared.
