Anna and Jiang Xuezhun were sowhat flustered as they served tea to the others, then sat next to Niuniu.
Anna asked, "Brother Hao, this lady is so pitiful, you must cure her!"
Jiang Xuezhun's eyes were also full of sympathy. Such congenital and hereditary diseases are the most distressing, as they have done no wrong, yet suffer such punishnt for no reason.
These diseases, incurable and irreversible, have confounded countless dical professors and expert authorities.
Anna's words, though well-intentioned, made Niuniu sowhat upset and she turned her face away.
Xu Hao smiled and said, "Anna is still young, her words are innocent, Miss Niuniu, please don't take it to heart."
Niuniu imdiately turned her head and said, "I'm not called Niuniu, I'm Li Lingniu!"
"But, that's still Niuniu, right?" Anna quickly responded.
"Humph!" Li Lingniu snorted delicately and said no more.
Li Chenggong smiled and said, "Niuniu's mood has improved a lot compared to before. Previously, no matter what, she would keep everything bottled up inside her and rarely interacted with us, but now she has beco more cheerful than before, and this is also thanks—in large part—to Xu Xiao You."
Lady Li repeatedly expressed her gratitude, and Xu Hao had no choice but to repeatedly decline the thanks.
At this point, Li Chenggong said, "Without further ado, as Xu Xiao You is still young and ti is precious, I'll co straight to the point." Catch the formatted version at *.
"Please go ahead, Old Mr. Li,"
"Because Niuniu's condition has improved, I've decided to have you as my partner for my investnt in the film base in Huadu!" Li Chenggong announced.
Xu Hao smiled lightly and said, "Mm, Old Mr. Li, you can rest assured. Since you have chosen to cooperate with , I will definitely not let you down!"
Lady Li, puzzled, asked, "Xu Xiao You, if I may ask without offending, it seems like you aren't very excited?"
Li Chenggong laughed and said, "You are underestimating Xu Xiao You! He had already ascertained that our investnt partner would definitely be him, so upon hearing the news, he found it within expectations, thus he naturally had no surprise joy. Oh, truly it is a case of the new waves of the Yangtze River driving on those ahead, each wave stronger than the last! Xu Xiao You's composed deanor alone far outstrips the likes of Wu ngchong and Mao Jinxi!"
Lady Li was inwardly astonished. Wu ngchong, the eldest son of the First Family of Huadu, the Wu Family, and Mao Jinxi, the Third Young Master of the Richest Person in Jiangnan's Mao Family—these two n were renowned young leaders in their respective provinces!
Yet in Li Chenggong's assessnt, they were not on par with Xu Hao, a man of unknown identity and background!
But Lady Li quickly ca to terms with this.
Xu Hao's dical skills had surpassed those of the Southwest dicine King Lei Qianjue, and his martial arts capabilities were so formidable as to be terrifying, his intellect far beyond his peers. Such a monstrous existence, if it were claid he lacked the support of a powerful family, would evidently be impossible.
And what kind of formidable family could have nurtured a youth who could outshine individuals like Wu ngchong?
No one knew!
The unknown is always the most terrifying.
Xu Hao clasped his hands with a smile and said, "Old Mr. Li flatters , I rely had the good fortune to acquire a few skills."
"Xu Xiao You, there's no need for modesty, what I've said is all true. A son should be like Xu Xiao You! If any one of my incompetent sons had even half of Xu Xiao You's abilities, I wouldn't worry anymore," Li Chenggong sighed.
Being praised so highly, even Xu Hao, with his thick skin, felt a bit overwheld at this point and quickly changed the subject, "Since Old Mr. Li, you have chosen to cooperate with , when shall we go to select the site?"
Li Chenggong laughed and said, "I'm a bit traditional; when choosing a site, I like to have a Feng Shui Master examine the Feng Shui first, otherwise I'd feel uneasy. But you, Xu Xiao You, being a youngster, might not be interested in these, right?"
Xu Hao shook his head slightly and said, "Old Mr. Li, you are wrong in thinking so. Although I am young, I deeply love and respect the traditional culture of Huaya, not to ntion, I have also delved into so Feng Shui."
"Oh? Xu Xiao You also researches Feng Shui?" Li Chenggong suddenly beca interested, "I must be honest, I'm extrely intrigued by these matters. The renowned Feng Shui Master of Hongkong, Master Xingyi, I often invite him to visit my ho to discuss philosophy."
"Master Xingyi? I think I have heard of this master's na before," Xu Hao said.
However, at this mont, Jiang Xuezhun suddenly said, "I know this person, my grandfather ntioned that the Feng Shui skills of Old Xingyi are very strong, especially in finding dragons, locating burial spots."
Hearing Jiang Xuezhun refer to Master Xingyi as Old Xingyi, Li Chenggong's face imdiately turned a bit displeased, he turned his head and asked, "Who is your grandfather?"
"Jiang Longchi," Jiang Xuezhun answered.
"Jiang Longchi!"
Li Chenggong suddenly exclaid, then stood up and said with deep respect, "So you are the granddaughter of Benefactor Jiang, my apologies for my discourtesy!"
Now, it was Jiang Xuezhun's turn to be surprised. What was going on with Li Chenggong? Why was he so astonished upon hearing her grandfather's na, even calling him a benefactor?
