Luofeng, Bai Ningbing, Wang Yanran, Shen Na, and Zhang Xingjun were eating at the school canteen.
During the al, Bai Ningbing casually asked, "Luofeng, aren't you going to the library this afternoon?"
After all, Luofeng had returned the Campus Card to Zhang Xingjun.
"This afternoon I'm going to the Starbucks Coffee Shop across the street to handle so work. It's troubleso to do it in the library; every ti I make a call, I have to step away," Luofeng said.
"Okay, then I'll find you at Starbucks after school!" Bai Ningbing said.
"Great!" Luofeng nodded.
Wang Yanran casually asked, "What kind of work are you busy with, big shot?"
Luofeng joked, "I'm having a bit of a tussle with a friend. He played a prank on , and now I'm planning to return the favor."
"Sounds like the world of big shots!" Wang Yanran exclaid.
Zhang Xingjun, however, grew curious. Isn't this guy a moocher? He was thoroughly puzzled.
After lunch, Luofeng strolled around the school with Bai Ningbing, holding her hand.
Bai Ningbing was clearly in high spirits. Even while holding his hand, she skipped ahead like a young high school girl.
"Oh, by the way, Luofeng, I won't be going with you today," Bai Ningbing suddenly said.
"Huh?" Luofeng was puzzled.
"You big bad egg don't need to study, but I do!" Bai Ningbing said. "I feel like I haven't been getting enough sleep lately... after all, you're too good at making trouble for . Plus, I have howork, group discussions, mock interviews, and so on... Besides, aren't you supposed to be going back to your school?"
"Isn't it because I'm staying here to accompany you?" Luofeng humd.
The experience with Bai Ningbing was actually very good. She was the kind of partner who didn't need to be highly skilled to make it thoroughly rewarding for Luofeng.
"HMPH!" Bai Ningbing feigned annoyance. "You should hurry back and study hard, and I need to study hard too. I've been very busy lately. You can co over during Labor Day."
"During Labor Day, we'll have a seven-day holiday. We can go to the Yellow Crane Tower or Shennongjia then," Bai Ningbing said, outlining her hopes for the vacation.
Luofeng smiled and said, "Seeing as you didn't tell in advance, you have to spend one more day with today!"
Bai Ningbing's face imdiately flushed. She knew. This day would undoubtedly involve at least one round on top and two on the bottom.
"You just love to bully !"
COUGH, COUGH, COUGH!
Luofeng wasn't *just* thinking about bullying her. Forget it. The System still hadn't found a solution. He'd better wait until Bai Ningbing learned yoga; that would be more secure. After all, Luofeng could only do as he pleased once the System found a solution. Otherwise, the legal risks from the Unknown Dinsion were still quite frightening. Safety first, wasn't it? This was Luofeng's principle: why take risks when he was so young and accomplished?
"You're my treasure, how could I bear to bully you?" Luofeng took Bai Ningbing's hand, then stepped in front of her and crouched down. "Co on, Baby, I'll carry you."
Bai Ningbing was a bit shy but allowed Luofeng to carry her on his back. This novel experience of being carried by her boyfriend was a little exciting for her.
No, wait. It seed he had carried on his back yesterday. But he had been lying down then... COUGH, COUGH, COUGH.
Considering they were on school grounds, Bai Ningbing only let Luofeng carry her for a short distance before getting down, to avoid them becoming the talk of the campus.
Around 2 o'clock, Luofeng walked Bai Ningbing to the classroom for her afternoon class. He saw her to the door before leaving.
He planned to go to the Starbucks nearby, the one close to the school.
anwhile, Luofeng had only casually bluffed to scare Chen Hong.
But unexpectedly, Chen Hong started to get nervous.
He not only began checking if his company had a mole but also specifically reviewed their official cooperative projects, looking to patch up any oversights.
The cooperative relationship with official entities, which had seed extrely stable, now began to show signs of friction.
Suspicion! Mistrust! Sotis, these things can truly drive a person to collapse.
In the end, those stable official projects successively beca embroiled in disputes with Shengyuan Group.
This situation not only bewildered the financial circles but also led so to start criticizing Shengyuan Group.
After all, business people value reputation. And Shengyuan Group? They were too paranoid, investigating matters they shouldn't have. Businessn who don't trust their partners will surely find it hard to find collaborators in the future.
In Jingzhou, at a Starbucks near Jingzhou University, Luofeng arrived.
He soon received ssages from Chen Ping and Tong Tianlong, all concerning the current situation of Shengyuan Group.
"HA HA HA, this Chen Hong actually went to investigate the official projects they were cooperating on? And got caught?"
"TSK TSK TSK, truly incredible!"
Chen Ping ssaged, "Yes, their cooperative relationships are gradually becoming problematic, and they're bound to fall apart sooner or later."
Luofeng mused. Had his casual remark actually sown such discord?
"Official projects are naturally hot commodities. If Shengyuan Group doesn't trust their partners, the officials can find other partners who do," Chen Ping ssaged.
"MM-HMM, that's the way it is!" Luofeng nodded.
As for Chen Hong, he wasn't on the verge of death... yet. Luofeng recalled the advanced Thirty-day trend information card for the future copper futures market. Could setting a trap with this card directly doom Chen Hong? Their Shengyuan Group still had ten billion in its own funds. In the copper futures market, ten billion? If Luofeng designed it well, that would be enough to swallow this sum. But how to design the trap—that was the big question.
At three in the afternoon, when the Daxia stock market opened, Baiyao Biological hit its limit down.
Rumors began to circulate about another of Shengyuan Group's heavy position stocks, and its performance also faltered.
Faced with this situation, Shengyuan Group dared not sell its remaining eleven heavy position stocks. They needed to maintain their clients' confidence. They believed that holding steady was winning.
"Good afternoon, Brother Feng!"
At this mont, Chen Hong actually called.
"Good afternoon, Brother Chen Hong. I hear Shengyuan Group has run into so trouble?" Luofeng said politely.
"You're quite well-inford," Chen Hong said. "By the way, Brother Feng, you must have so connections with official figures, right?"
Actually, Chen Hong had been thinking it over. Doubting and investigating one's partners would indeed irritate them. But it seed that was just the spark. Could it be that Luofeng knew those official figures, and they were using this as an excuse to switch partners?
"I have no idea what you're talking about!" Luofeng replied with a mysterious smile.
To put it simply, Luofeng had asked the security investigation team to step in. They were official personnel, after all, so making contact was easy. But there had been no conflict or problems with Shengyuan Group's cooperative projects with those official entities, so why the sudden desire to change partners? Whether in ancient or modern tis, one needs a justifiable reason to act, right? If there are no problems, you can't find an excuse. But now, Luofeng's casual remark had made Chen Hong anxious enough to investigate his partners. Wasn't that excuse enough? After all, Chen Hong's family also had connections and had to consider many people's reputations. But now, with an excuse, there was no need to save face for anyone. It's like when your wife suddenly blows up over a small mistake and pushes for a divorce; that's when you have to wonder if she's seeing soone else.
