Chapter 253: Chapter 0253: The White Fog Dragon (Fifteenth Update)
"Oh, I remember now, how is that person?" Chu Ge nodded and asked.
"Hmm, the person is pretty good, though just joined the company, has a strong desire for self-improvement, capable, and doesn’t act hastily like young people do; very steady. Worth a trial."
Ms. Xu said this as she took out a sheet of paper from her overcoat pocket and laid it in front of Chu Ge.
The sheet was a personal profile, with a photo that made Chu Ge pause for a moment.
It was a picture of a beautiful young girl, flashing a bright sunny smile. Of course, Chu Ge wasn’t moved by her looks; so far, aside from Nangong Man Sha, he hadn’t met any woman whose beauty could compare to Mu Bingtong’s.
What slightly surprised Chu Ge was that the person Ms. Xu recommended turned out to be Qin Luoluo.
But as for Qin Luoluo, Chu Ge was quite relieved. The girl’s professional capabilities were beyond question; it could already be seen during the interview. As for her personality, it was naturally good.
"Alright, let’s go with her then." Chu Ge made a direct decision and handed back the profile: "Find some time to head to her current employer to formalize the transfer. Once she arrives, she can start immediately. Ms. Xu, please guide her more."
"Ah?" Ms. Xu was clearly surprised upon hearing Chu Ge’s decision: "Manager Chu, aren’t you going to interview her?"
"No need, I trust Ms. Xu’s judgment," Chu Ge said with a smile.
Sometimes, little white lies can go a long way in enhancing relationships, as could be seen from the touched expression in Ms. Xu’s eyes.
As for those companies ceding shares, it must be said that as one of the Four Great Families of Shanghai, the deterrence of the Xiahou family was definitely not just talk. The incidents from last night had, by this morning, led all those company heads to come over themselves.
Although they all had the look of deep tragedy on their faces, not one dared to be careless, and Mu Bingtong naturally didn’t give them any quarter either, insisting on taking exactly what was due, not a penny more.
Such a significant event not only caused a stir in the upper echelons of Shanghai but also became known to the general public, who caught wind of the news. After all, real transactions between large families and corporate affairs are hard to keep under wraps.
After sorting out the Finance Department’s business, Chu Ge informed Mu Bingtong and then left the company.
There was a press conference planned for the afternoon, where all the senior executives of the company were expected to appear, to formally announce strategic cooperation agreements with the companies ceding shares.
And Mu Bingtong, knowing well that Chu Ge didn’t like such events, didn’t insist on his attendance.
After leaving Jinxiu Group, Chu Ge went straight to the estate; Mr. Ouyang had already contacted him, saying everything he was collecting was ready.
When he arrived at the estate, he found that it wasn’t just Mr. Ouyang there; Mr. Sima and Xiahou Longhu were also present.
"All are here, I see," Chu Ge walked over and greeted them.
Seeing Chu Ge coming, Xiahou Longhu’s face clearly showed a somewhat unnatural expression.
To be honest, Xiahou Longhu felt very distressed. He had barely mitigated the negative impact of Xiahou Renjie the previous night, but then Xiahou Wudao had actually gone to meet Chu Ge!
This had caused Xiahou Longhu to break out in a cold sweat. After all, he didn’t know his son that well. Judging by his past actions, his son was someone who could act recklessly without regards for his life. If he had a confrontation with Mr. Chu...
Xiahou Longhu didn’t dare to think of the consequences. After all, if it involved Xiahou Wudao, then Xiahou Renjie’s misdeeds would be considered mere child’s play.
Chu Ge smiled at Xiahou Longhu, who seemed worried, and said softly, "I had a good chat with Xiahou Wudao last night. The atmosphere was quite nice."
Hearing this from Chu Ge, Xiahou Longhu finally let out a long sigh of relief, and the mood amongst those present relaxed completely.
Mr. Ouyang, being the one closest to Chu Ge, broke the silence, asking directly, "Mr. Chu, what do you need these items for? Can you tell us now?"
"Just wait and see," Chu Ge said.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to explain, but such matters were indeed a bit unbelievable.
With help from others, things naturally got much simpler. After having some people place these items at specific spots, Chu Ge strode leisurely to the side of a small artificial hill.
Several people followed behind him, watching everything with confusion.
Suddenly, Chu Ge stomped on the ground and roared, "Array, activate!"
A surge of Spiritual Energy burst forth from his body, seeping through his feet into the ground. It was fortunate that his foundation was extremely profound; otherwise, even a normal Innate Grandmaster wouldn’t have enough Spiritual Energy to activate the Array.
At first, there was no change. However, when Chu Ge’s Spiritual Energy touched the earth’s meridians of the manor, changes finally began to occur!
"Is... is that fog?" Xiahou Longhu murmured, watching as waves of white fog rose from the ground, swiftly enveloping the entire manor!
A refreshing fragrance wafted through the house; this was not ordinary haze, but fog formed from condensed Spiritual Energy!
"What is this..."
All three of them widened their eyes in amazement at the scene, for everything before them was simply too magical.
"Is this the method of Ancient Martial Artists?" Mr. Sima murmured.
Chu Ge turned his head to look at him and smiled, "It’s far more than just this."
As if to prove his point, a faint yet distinct long chant suddenly came from the depths of the white fog. Hearing this chant, the bodyguards behind the Old Masters all changed their expressions, quickly stepping forward to protect the Old Masters, then cautiously watched the surrounding white fog.
That chanting was clearly the sound of a creature!
But what followed was a scene they would never forget.
The white fog sporadically cleared a little, allowing the features of the distant scenery to be vaguely discernible. At the same time, a roar clearer than before suddenly echoed from the fog: "Ao—"
The fog dispersed abruptly!
A dragon, more precisely, a Jiao Long formed of white fog, emerged from the dense fog and then circled a few meters above their heads, with the sound of Dragon Roar echoing throughout the entire manor.
Mr. Ouyang stared blankly at the creature soaring above them, his lips trembling several times before finally spitting out the words that were stuck in his throat: "This... This is a dragon!"
