Chapter 17 White Cat Jade Hall
Lu Huai listlessly threw down his golf club, walked to the rest area and sat down. He picked up his phone, which he had casually tossed on the sofa, glanced at it, and his eyebrows twitched slightly.
half an hour.
He lifted his eyelids, his dark brown eyes sweeping coolly over Lin Yue, who had been sitting in the rest area since earlier.
Under the intensely oppressive gaze of the other party, Lin Yue felt a chill run down her spine, and the bright smile on her face almost froze on her lips. But even so, she still had to keep smiling, afraid that the powerful man in front of her would see through her disguise.
Seeing this, a hint of amusement flashed in Yan Xun's eyes.
He knew this woman named Lin Yue.
I used to be classmates with Sister Gu.
Just as the atmosphere became increasingly tense, the chief assistant, who had been waiting in the outdoor corridor, pushed open the door and walked in.
He respectfully handed his coat to the man in front of him and said, "President Lu, the cooperation plan with Baiyu Maotang has been finalized. The senior management at the group headquarters said they are waiting for you to personally go back and chair a meeting." He paused for a moment, then continued, "Moreover, I heard that several other companies are also very interested in this business with Baiyu Maotang and are all thinking of getting involved and getting a share of the pie."
The name "White Cat Jade Hall" immediately suggests that it is an extraordinary place.
In fact it is.
White Cat Jade Hall is not just a simple name, but also a very mysterious and powerful organization with influence all over the world and wealth that is said to be unfathomable.
No one knows how wide the scope of White Cat Jade Hall's business is, only that it is full of talented people, including those from the political, military, and business circles. This has led to many conglomerates having intricate ties with White Cat Jade Hall.
Even the most powerful conglomerates at the top of the pyramid inevitably have business dealings with it.
For example, the Chinese tallow tree.
Lu Huai only began to gradually take over the SLG Group's forces three years ago. The senior shareholders who were able to hold shares in the group's headquarters were all shrewd old foxes, so he was hampered and suppressed from all sides in the first year.
Until last year, Lu Huai, with the help of Bai Mao Yu Tang, decisively undermined the upper management, eliminating many of the old foxes' secret forces and cultivating his own team. The result of this successful deterrence was that he gained complete decision-making power over the group headquarters.
Logically speaking, the Lu family, which could rival the Sheng and Qi families, was a prestigious and powerful family in Yancheng. However, unfortunately, their ancestral graves were cursed, and Lu Huai's father was such a scoundrel who was proficient in eating, drinking, gambling, and whoring.
There are countless illegitimate children, and they fight and vie for them, openly and secretly, until they are bloodied and broken, a life-or-death struggle.
The only saving grace was that Old Master Lu was a shrewd businessman. He had completely given up on his good-for-nothing son who only knew how to attract women, and later focused solely on cultivating his direct grandson, Lu Huai.
Those illegitimate children naturally couldn't even get into the Lu family's house.
Otherwise, Lu Huai's father was only clear-headed in this respect, knowing that illegitimate children could only be raised outside the family, and that bringing them home to be recognized by the family was not an option.
Ha! No need to even think about it.
Putting aside whether Lu Huai's father would allow it or not, just considering Lu Laoye's ruthless and decisive methods, crushing these illegitimate children would be as easy as crushing a swarm of ants.
Lu Huai straightened up from the sofa, his tall figure rising as he casually put on his coat. "Everyone wants to nibble on fatty meat, but it depends on whether they have the life to do so."
Yan Xun could tell at a glance that Lu Huai had lost interest, so he pretended to try and persuade him to stay, saying, "Brother Huai, why don't you continue playing for a while?"
"No, thank you." Although Lu Huai was a cold-hearted person, he was quite generous to these brothers, even if it was just on the surface. He casually said, "Put your expenses on my tab this time."
This upscale billiards club is a place where privileged young men often come to play billiards.
To play billiards here, you first need to get a VIP card. Many people deposit millions or tens of millions of yuan into it. The higher your spending, the better the service you receive.
Beautiful women, fine wines, and entertainment options are all available.
Lu Huai rarely comes here. Although he still has several hundred million yuan left in his VIP card, for some second-generation rich kids whose spending is strictly controlled by their elders, getting something for free is really appealing.
"Brother Huai is so generous!" one of the brothers immediately exclaimed with a grin.
"As expected of Brother Huai, he's so generous!"
Yan Xun echoed this sentiment, but what he was actually thinking was something else entirely.
This was the first time he had ever heard the name White Cat Jade Hall.
It seems I should ask his brother when I get home.
Lu Huai was too lazy to listen to their flattery. He pushed open the door of the billiard room and left the club with his chief assistant.
The moment Lin Yue saw Lu Huai's figure disappear outside the door, her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down, and she couldn't help but let out a soft breath.
Before this, Lin Yue had always thought that these scions of noble families were just born into good families and that they weren't necessarily very clever. But just now, she realized that sometimes it wasn't that people couldn't see through your little tricks, but that they were too lazy to bother with a nobody like you.
……
Yan Ting stared at the video call that had just ended: "..."
She is not stupid.
It was obvious to Lu Huai that Miss Gu held a very special place in his heart.
When she was pursuing Lu Huai, she had actually heard that Lu Huai had a white moonlight who he loved but could not get during high school.
Unfortunately, Bai Yueguang didn't love Lu Huai, and later went abroad to study after graduating from high school.
Yan Ting had never met that white moonlight, but according to people in the circle who had seen Gu Qiu, she looked three-tenths similar to her. Their temperaments were different, but their eyebrows and eyes were very similar.
As a result, many people believe that Lu Huai agreed to the marriage alliance with the Yan family because he probably saw Yan Ting as a substitute for Gu Qiu.
It would be better if Gu Qiu didn't come back from abroad. Once he does, Yan Ting will probably be abandoned by Lu Huai very soon.
Back then, Yan Ting faced ridicule, mockery, and open disdain from many people while pursuing Lu Huai.
The fact that a young lady from the prestigious Yan family could pursue a man so humbly and passionately did not elicit envy from the public, but rather misunderstanding and ridicule from some.
Among them, Tan Yi was the one who couldn't understand it the most. She couldn't understand why her best friend would fall in love with Lu Huai. In her opinion, Lu Huai was actually a cold and indifferent person by nature, and was destined not to be a person who would stay in love for long.
To like a man like that is tantamount to digging your own grave.
But Yanting was stubborn by nature; ten stubborn donkeys combined couldn't match her stubbornness.
It took four years to finally secure a marriage alliance between the Yan and Lu families.
Moreover, Yanting and Lu Huai's engagement banquet is scheduled for next month.
This was something that Yanting had discussed with Lu Huai last year.
