Evening, Pingjiang Road Songhe Building.
Originally, Liu Ke Ping wanted to book a more upscale restaurant.
Lu Li considered that Liu Yeli rarely ca to Su City.
He wanted the other party to taste the flavor of hotown cuisine.
So he specially chose the more famous Songhe Building.
The private room was filled with a table full of dishes.
Squirrel fish, fresh river shrimp, pri seafood fin, king oyster mushrooms with sea cucumber, braised deer tendons, and more than a dozen dishes covered the table.
As the host, Lu Li invited Uncle Liu and Brother Liu: "Uncle Liu, Brother Liu, try the squirrel fish, it’s the signature dish of Songhe Building, tastes great."
Liu Yeli picked up a piece, tasted it, and said, "Really good, sweet and sour, very appetizing."
Liu Ke Ping also ate a piece and praised, "It really is delicious, worthy of being a famous Su City dish."
Liu Kexin: "..."
She knew that her father and brother didn’t like sweet food.
Now, in order to flatter Lu Li, are they blatantly lying again?
Lu Li wasn’t aware and continued to warmly entertain the two.
They had only just started eating.
Liu Yeli put down his chopsticks and said casually, "Mr. Lu..."
Lu Li blinked and said, "Uncle Liu, you can call Lu Li or Xiaolu, no need to be so formal."
Yep, he didn’t say "Xiaoli," because it sounded too much like Xiaoli.
Liu Yeli chuckled and said, "Alright, I’ll be bold and call you Xiaolu... Xiaolu still seems a bit formal, I’ll call you Xiaoli."
Lu Li: "..."
He said helplessly, "Alright, as long as you like it."
Liu Yeli said, "Even though you and our Kexin haven’t been dating long, I really like you as a person, so I’ve been thinking, if you two ever get married..."
"Dad!" Liu Kexin blushed slightly and said, "Lu Li and I just started dating, why are you thinking so far ahead?"
"Hey," Liu Yeli raised his hand and said, "As long as you two get along well, you will definitely get married in the future, right? Since I’m not always in Huaxia, we should chat about it first, Xiaoli, don’t you agree?"
Lu Li glanced at Liu Kexin and smiled, "Yes."
Liu Yeli said, "What I an is, when a daughter gets married, her family should prepare a dowry, so I decided to discuss with the board and personally buy the Liu Group shares in Vox, as Kexin’s dowry."
He intended this because he had a rough understanding of Lu Li’s family background, knowing it was quite ordinary, and he wanted to take this opportunity to give so money to Lu Li and his daughter to ensure their future life.
On the one hand, this could establish a good relationship with Lu Li.
On the other, Liu Yeli couldn’t bear the thought of his precious daughter living without money in the future.
But upon hearing this, Liu Ke Ping pretended to cough on the side, wanting to remind his dad that Lu Li wasn’t short of money.
Unfortunately, Liu Yeli was determined and completely ignored his son.
Lu Li was taken aback, "Uncle Liu, Vox is valued at several billion yuan, isn’t it a bit too valuable to be a dowry?"
"Haha." Liu Yeli looked gently at Liu Kexin and said, "I only have one daughter, if she really gets married one day, having too little dowry wouldn’t be fitting, and the Liu Group isn’t the sole owner of Vox, it’s not as much as you think, well, I’ll think of a way to acquire the shares from other shareholders to ensure you two can control the company."
Lu Li never expected his future father-in-law to be so considerate, and for a mont, he was quite touched.
He was about to respond.
Suddenly, the phone screen on the table lit up.
Then, it started ringing.
Lu Li picked up the phone and saw it was Shen Xia calling.
He guessed there might be an issue with the "volcanic ash rock" subatomic particle research.
He thought for a mont and said to Liu Yeli and Liu Ke Ping, "Excuse , I need to take a call."
Liu Yeli gestured, "Go ahead and handle your business, we’ll just keep eating."
"Okay." Lu Li responded and answered the call, "Hello, Shen Xia?"
Upon hearing a woman’s na, Liu Kexin, Liu Yeli, and Liu Ke Ping instantly perked up their ears.
Shen Xia’s voice ca through the phone, "Lu Li, am I interrupting your rest?"
Lu Li smiled and said, "No, I’m having dinner, do you need sothing?"
Shen Xia said, "Should I wait until you finish your al?"
Lu Li said, "It’s no bother, go ahead and tell ."
Shen Xia said, "It’s like this, recently I went to the Lanzhou Particle Research Center and conducted a series of experints, but there are so minor issues, and we can’t seem to capture the ’volcanic ash rock’ subatomic particles you ntioned, so I wanted to see if you could co over and help us pinpoint the problem, could you?"
Lu Li calculated the ti and said, "I might not have ti recently, how about we talk about it after a while?"
After handling this matter with Liu Kexin, he needed to find a way to gather energy for the fourth deep evolution, where would he find the ti to deal with other matters?
Shen Xia was quite understanding, "Alright, let’s get in touch once you’re free."
"Okay."
Lu Li said goodbye to her and hung up the phone.
Liu Yeli was worried that Lu Li might have other won outside, but he couldn’t ask directly, so he gave his son a look.
Liu Ke Ping understood and blinked as he asked, "Do you have work to do? If you do, go ahead, we can eat slowly here."
Liu Kexin kept looking at Lu Li, wanting to know what was going on with the woman who called.
Lu Li laughed, "I do have so work, but it’s not urgent."
Liu Ke Ping continued being the bad guy, "Can I ask what it’s about? Maybe I can help."
Lu Li explained, "I previously discovered a subatomic particle that might change the course of human civilization. The research team is conducting experints but can’t capture this particle, so they called to see if I could help."
"Huh?" Liu Kexin was stunned, "Were you serious about that particle discovery that could change human civilization?"
Lu Li chuckled and said, "I told you, but you didn’t believe . Why would I lie about sothing like that?"
Liu Kexin was truly bewildered; she couldn’t associate "great physicist" with Lu Li.
Liu Yeli was rather convinced.
After all, Lu Li managed to create the terrifying Michoacán explosion in xico.
Discovering a subatomic particle that could potentially change the course of human civilization doesn’t seem so surprising.
He asked curiously, "Xiaoli, don’t bla for being nosy, but you said you’ve discovered a subatomic particle that could possibly alter human civilization’s progress. If applied comrcially, its value must be imnse, right?"
Lu Li nodded slightly, "Yes, if this subatomic particle’s research matures, it might instantly elevate humanity from our current ho planet civilization to a stellar civilization. As for comrcial application, let’s just say, whoever masters this subatomic particle can easily beco the world’s richest person."
Liu Yeli was shocked after listening, having never expected beyond Lu Li’s formidable combat capabilities, he could discover a particle that might change the progress of human civilization.
Just as Liu Yeli was astonished.
Liu Ke Ping said softly, "Mr. Lu wanting to beco the world’s richest person is truly too simple. Recently, I visited his factory, Dad, guess what."
Hmm, Liu Ke Ping spoke this deliberately for Liu Yeli to hear.
The goal was to prevent him from "showing off wealth" in front of Lu Li.
Liu Yeli asked in confusion, "Xiaoli also established a factory?"
Lu Li nodded, "Yes."
Liu Yeli asked curiously, "Ke Ping, what’s the situation with Xiaoli’s factory?"
Liu Ke Ping glanced at Lu Li, and sought his opinion, "Mr. Lu, may I speak?"
Lu Li smiled, "There’s nothing you can’t say, go ahead and talk to Uncle Liu."
Having received a definite answer, Liu Ke Ping then turned to Liu Yeli.
Explaining the situation about the internal combustion engine with fifteen thousand revolutions per minute.
Liu Yeli was stunned.
As a comrcial tycoon from the Ugly Country, he could certainly tell what an internal combustion engine with fifteen thousand revolutions per minute ant.
It implied that if it could really be developed, Lu Li’s ascent to beco the world’s richest person would be as easy as eating and drinking.
This left Liu Yeli helplessly smiling.
He regretted initially thinking Lu Li couldn’t provide his daughter with a high-quality life.
Regretted initially believing Liu Kexin would suffer with Lu Li.
Turns out the guy is capable.
It was entirely his unnecessary worry.
Liu Yeli couldn’t help but glance at his daughter, feeling helplessly emotional inside.
His daughter could find such an excellent man as Lu Li for a boyfriend.
It’s simply like the Liu Family’s ancestral tomb emitting smoke!
No, more than just smoke.
It’s like the ancestral tomb burst into flas!
...
In the evening.
Lu Li drove the Cullinan to escort Liu Yeli, Liu Ke Ping, and Liu Kexin back to Diamond Ho.
He declined their invitation and returned to the Chinese-style courtyard at Shanglin Garden.
The reason was, on one hand, Liu Kexin’s bungalow didn’t have many bedrooms.
If he stayed there, the Liu father and son would have to share a bed.
How could he let his future father-in-law and future brother-in-law suffer like that?
On the other hand, since his matter with Liu Kexin was resolved.
The next step should be preparing for the fourth deep evolution.
He needed to contact Gu Wei to arrange a ti to absorb energy.
Liu Kexin watched as the Cullinan exited the gate, then retracted her gaze.
Liu Kexin turned to her father and brother, inquiring, "Dad, Brother, do you know what’s causing such a change in Lu Li’s attitude?"
Liu Yeli was taken aback, "Xiaoli hasn’t told you directly?"
Liu Kexin tentatively said, "He has, but not much. Can you tell more about his situation?"
Liu Yeli, being a man of experience, imdiately saw through his daughter’s lie.
He chuckled and waved his hand, "Since Xiaoli hasn’t told you, he must have his reasons. Let him tell you himself later, your brother and I won’t say much."
Liu Ke Ping also chid in, "Hmm, it’s not good to discuss people behind their backs."
Liu Kexin was nearly half dead from anger.
You both know the situation but won’t tell ?
But with her father and brother refusing to speak, she had no other options.
Hey!
Wait!
Liu Kexin thought of sothing, her gaze beca flickering.
She rembered her father and brother had a private conversation downstairs earlier, after which their attitude towards Lu Li completely changed.
The house Liu Kexin rented had surveillance installed in the living room by the landlord.
She figured if she could access the living room footage to check the period of their private discussion, she’d know what her father and brother discussed that afternoon.
If they were indeed discussing Lu Li, she could understand the specifics!
Thinking of this made Liu Kexin feel sowhat unable to repress her excitent.
She was desperate to know her boyfriend’s "true character".
Now with decryption insight.
Liu Kexin was certainly thrilled.
What kind of person is Lu Li?
With curiosity, Liu Kexin headed upstairs to access the surveillance footage.
