Lu Xiaobu hadn’t even started speaking with Pan Yang and Zheng Hai when a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties hurriedly walked in. From a distance, he greeted cheerfully, "Mr. Lu, I didn’t know you were visiting, my apologies for not welcoming you sooner, my apologies!"
His na was Fu Zhongshan, the head of the Fu Family, and also one of the moguls on the First Level Rich List.
Upon receiving a call from his daughter saying Lu Xiaobu had arrived, he imdiately put an important eting on hold and rushed over at the earliest opportunity!
Lu Xiaobu was notoriously difficult to deal with and could definitely be considered among the top three, if not the top, individuals to be wary of!
Regardless of whether Lu Xiaobu ca as a friend or foe this ti, he couldn’t let his guard down!
The guests saw Fu Zhongshan coming over, showing such imnse respect, treating Lu Xiaobu as an equal, and their impression of Lu Xiaobu’s fearso reputation intensified.
"It’s nothing, I’m just here to have so fun." Lu Xiaobu stood up and shook hands with Fu Zhongshan with a smile.
"Oh, just for fun! Let join you!" Fu Zhongshan laughed heartily.
However, inside he was cursing to himself!
I don’t believe you! You, Lu Xiaobu, are just here for fun?!
This is my daughter’s birthday party, there’s no one you know here, what is there for you to have fun with?
He’s definitely here to set him up!
Pan Yang and Zheng Hai listened to their exchange and glanced at each other, both feeling inexplicably emotional.
This is the disparity.
Lu Xiaobu was about their age, maybe even a few years younger, yet even if he was just there to have fun, a top-level mogul from the First Level Rich List would personally accompany him!
And then they looked at themselves, what a difference, like clouds and mud!
Thinking this, the two exchanged another glance and both nodded.
No matter what Lu Xiaobu asked them to do, they must do it beautifully!
This is probably the biggest opportunity in their lives.
"Alright then, what do you find fun?" Lu Xiaobu asked Fu Zhongshan with a smile.
"Uh..." Fu Zhongshan was montarily dumbfounded.
Fun?! What is fun?
Besides, although they addressed each other as equals, there was still a huge age gap, who on earth knows what the young people of today find fun!
However!
His eyes twitched slightly as he thought of sothing.
He heard that Lu Xiaobu was holding a literary competition, allegedly to rearrange the rankings!
And while he didn’t have many other hobbies, he did have an interest in literature and knew quite a few literary giants.
Could it be that...
After thinking about it for a bit, he made his decision. Whether or not this was Lu Xiaobu’s original intent, he wouldn’t lose out by doing him a favor!
So!
"Right, I heard Mr. Lu has quite a bit of interest in literature. Coincidentally, I know so literary giants, all of whom are quite prestigious. They’re curious about the competition you’re holding and were asking if they could participate. So, what do you think..."
Fu Zhongshan said with a cheerful grin.
Pure nonsense about asking him!
What he ant was that he would say a few words to have these literary giants participate in the contest, helping Lu Xiaobu boost the competition’s profile!
This was doing a favor!
"That would be great," Lu Xiaobu was imdiately delighted, a pleasant surprise?!
As for Fu Zhongshan knowing the literary giants, who knows if that’s true, he was rely out to have fun!
"Alright then, I’ll notify them right away, I’m sure they’ll be thrilled." Fu Zhongshan turned to make phone calls.
Those literary giants had good relations with him and wouldn’t disregard his request.
...
anwhile.
At the literary contest, Zhang Shilin was fretting over a discussion with Su Luoxue.
"Sister Luoxue, what should we do! Most of these people are just here to ss around. If the contest really takes place, it would be a complete disgrace!" Zhang Shilin said helplessly.
The teacher had left, but had also left behind a ss to clean up.
"Do you know any literary giants? Can you get them to support us?!" Su Luoxue was also quite helpless.
If it were the business industry, as a secretary to the boss, she could still call in quite a few people.
But in the literary world, she was truly at a loss!
Not to ntion getting help, considering the boss’s notorious reputation in the literary scene, it would be a favor if she wasn’t cursed out the mont she revealed her identity!
"I only know my forr teacher!" Zhang Shilin was also filled with wry smiles!
She wasn’t much of a talker to begin with, and with Lu Xiaobu as her teacher all these years, she’s been targeted even more, where could she et new people?!
"What do we do?!" Su Luoxue was also in distress.
Just then, Su Luoxue’s phone suddenly rang.
"Hello. Are you Lu Xiaobu’s secretary? My na is Zhang Wannian. I’d like to participate in your contest, if possible."
"Huh?" Su Luoxue was stunned for a mont, Zhang Wannian? That na sounds familiar!
"Oh my god!" Zhang Shilin was shocked, covering her mouth in disbelief, "Zhang Wannian, Teacher Zhang?! A renowned literary giant in the country?! Wants to join our contest?!"
Upon hearing the words ’literary giant’, Su Luoxue quickly responded, "Mr. Zhang, of course, where are you located, I’ll have tickets sent to you imdiately!"
"Alright, I’ll send you my address." Zhang Wannian laughed heartily before hanging up the phone.
After the call ended, Su Luoxue and Zhang Shilin were left staring at each other.
"How co there’s suddenly a literary giant participating?!" Zhang Shilin’s mind was a bit blown.
"I have no idea either." Su Luoxue was also completely baffled.
This little contest of theirs, how could it attract such a renowned literary giant to participate?!
"If a literary giant joins, the level of the contest instantly rises quite a bit!" Zhang Shilin said excitedly, "And I’ve always wanted to et Teacher Zhang in person, now there’s a chance!"
Su Luoxue nodded her head.
Her heart had a few guesses—could it be the boss pulling strings?!
She hadn’t even finished her thought.
The phone rang again, and then rang again, one after the other.
"Is this Xiaolu’s secretary, Xiao Su? I’m Nanshan. I’d like to participate in your contest."
"My na is Yusheng, and I’d like to participate in your contest!"
"Is this Lu Xiaobu’s office? My na is..."
The calls ca one after another, each more famous than the last.
You could tell from Zhang Shilin’s reaction; the young girl was almost fainting from happiness!
These were all literary giants rarely seen! She had read many of their works multiple tis!
Never did she expect they would all want to participate in their contest!
Such bliss! Such bliss!
This contest could no longer be described in terms of gold content—it was pure diamond!
"Could it be the boss intervened?" Su Luoxue was also baffled, although she might not have t these people, she had heard of many of them.
Typically, others would roll out the red carpet for them, yet now they were volunteering to participate?!
"No! Definitely not!" Zhang Shilin, ever the straightforward girl, imdiately denied, "The teacher’s influence is great, in the business world, but in the literary world, it’s not that significant. The aloofness of scholars might be a joke among the ordinary folks, but among these literary giants, it’s real!"
"Then what exactly happened?!" Su Luoxue was utterly confused now.
While it might not be directly thanks to the boss’s influence, she was sure it was sohow related to him!
The boss is truly amazing, he said he wouldn’t interfere, but within just two hours, he managed to bring a bunch of literary giants together?!
She silently recited a spell in her heart—Long live Young Master Bu, may he dominate Jianghu forever!
