When he walked out of Li Youran's study, Chu Jungui breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had fought a big battle. Even the battle against Crassus was not so tiring.
At least when they went out, the two of them still seemed quite affectionate, which made a large group of people waiting outside breathe a sigh of relief.
In front of everyone, Li Youran and Chu Jungui said something to deepen their cooperation, and then sent Chu Jungui out. According to the plan, Chu Jungui will leave Tianyu at night and go to the headquarters of Comet Devre to meet and discuss with the board of directors. The acquisition process would be much smoother if the current board of directors cooperated.
After Chu Jungui left, Li Youran returned to the study, closed the door, and the smile on his face disappeared. An old man appeared in the study. He seemed to emerge from the shadows, silently and strangely.
When Li Youran saw the old man, he straightened his body subconsciously, especially his thighs and buttocks, which tightened involuntarily.
The old man's wrinkled face twitched and said: "It seems that the education you received when you were young was not in vain, and you are still responding after so many years. It seems that you should remember the things I taught you well."
Li Youran's face turned red. The old man was the predecessor of the clan, and he was three generations higher than Li Youran in terms of seniority. Back then, Li Youran had just learned to walk, and he was noticed by the old man, who took over the job personally and trained him as the patriarch of the clan. The old man is good at everything, but he has inherited the Li family's tradition of iron-blooded education. Li Youran has received countless beatings since he can remember. The key point is that the old man is also a medical expert. The beating will definitely not hurt the body, but it will be painful enough. Under his hands, there is absolutely no such thing as eating or not beating. It can be said that Li Youran's achievements today are definitely due to half of the credit of the old man.
"How was the discussion? Did he agree?" the old man asked.
Li Youran was startled: "Aren't you always watching in the dark? Why are you still asking me?"
The old man snorted heavily, and Li Youran's face turned pale. When the old man saw it, he also blamed himself a little. His face became calm and he said: "Back then, I was a little anxious to see Sun Chenglong. But you don't need to worry. When you become the head of the family and have the power, you will naturally be able to do it in a few years." Okay. I wanted to listen just now, but he found me as soon as he came in. I couldn't stay any longer, so I left by myself, leaving you two to talk slowly. "
Li Youran was shocked: "The dark room you stayed in was completely soundproof. How did he find you?"
The old man smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know either, but I know he found me. Until I left the reception area, there was always a pair of eyes staring at me, and that feeling didn't disappear until I left."
Li Youran was even more surprised, but he knew that with the old man's strength, there could be no illusion. But how did Chu Jungui do it? Even Li Youran himself didn't know if there was anyone in the darkroom.
The old man said: "This little guy is a talent. Let's find a way to bring him in."
Li Youran sighed and said, "What he just said was that he would reconsider. This is actually equivalent to rejection."
The old man pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said: "With his usual temperament, he would not say such polite words. He must just say what he thinks. If he said he would consider it, he would really consider it. The relationship between him and Lin Xi How's your relationship going?"
Li Youran said: "Based on all the information, Chu Jungui should be separated from Lin Xi."
The old man asked seriously: "Is this news reliable?"
"It's quite reliable. It's the news brought by Ruobai."
The old man nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's good. Otherwise, the Lin family still has some love, so it would be a bit embarrassing to poach them so openly."
Li Youran thought to himself, are you still embarrassed? Before he could finish his thoughts, he heard the old man continue: "You have to give them some meaning no matter what."
Li Youran sighed secretly. Sure enough, he was still a familiar senior. He continued: "But there is one thing worth paying attention to, and that is that there is another competitor in the Federation, Hathaway of the Winton family. She has been gaining momentum recently. I heard that the Winton family will hold an elders' meeting to discuss it in the near future. Whether to promote her in the succession sequence. If she is successfully promoted this time, then she is likely to be the first heir."
The old man snorted and said: "It turns out that she is from the Federation, so don't be afraid. The higher her status, the less likely they are to be together. Don't give up on this matter, and be more careful. If you can bring him into the family , then our Li family’s take-off is just around the corner!”
Li Youran said: "I'm afraid it's not that easy. That guy is a very emotional person."
The old man said: "There are many kinds of feelings, not just between men and women. If that boy is calmer, it is still possible. Now that he has to sit on the crater, many things are out of his control. He may feel that feelings are overwhelming now. Everything, but when the situation forces him in the future, he can affect the lives and deaths of thousands of people with one decision. Then he will naturally know what to do. As long as he is a human being, it is impossible to ignore the life and death of the brothers around him. "
The more Li Youran listened, the more he felt something was wrong, and asked: "You seem to think the war will expand?"
The old man's eyes flashed with a complex light, and he said slowly: "I didn't feel so clear before, but recently my thinking has become much clearer. Prepare for war!"
Li Youran said: "But the two sides are already negotiating in secret. It is said that the upper-level bosses have basically reached an agreement. Now there are only a few details left that have not been agreed upon. The war is almost over."
The old man got up and came to the window, looked at the scenery outside the window, and said calmly: "Don't forget, Xu Bingyan only has a few years left to live. He was amazingly talented and arrogant throughout his life, and now he is even more so through The battle on the vertical line has the vague intention of overpowering the world. What do you think a person like him would think when he knows that the end is coming? "
Li Youran thought carefully, beads of sweat gradually forming on his forehead.
The old man said: "I won't make it difficult for you this time. I'll tell you directly. At this moment, he only has one thing on his mind..."
The old man said every word: "Leave a name in history!"
Starport.
Chu Jungui boarded the spaceship, and Li Ruobai appeared out of nowhere, rushed into the cabin door, and then patted his chest with a look of joy.
Chu Jungui didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "It's not like I didn't wait for you, I overacted! Did you do something to feel sorry for me?"
Li Ruobai suddenly lost his temper and said, "How is that possible?"
But under Chu Jungui's gaze, Li Ruobai felt more and more guilty. He turned his eyes to the side and said, "Actually, it's nothing. It's just... a few elders of the Li family asked me to go over and ask some questions. That's it."
Chu Jungui smiled and said, "You can say whatever you think you can about my matters, it doesn't matter."
Li Ruobai finally breathed a sigh of relief, but as soon as he passed the current hurdle, he rekindled the flames of gossip and asked thiefly: "I think Xinyi is pretty good, do you want to consider it?"
