154 Be Happy For Him (2/2)
”Yes, it used to be Mr. Fang until a month ago. President Xiao, who is now our big boss, bought up Luo's Workshop.”
”Right, if the big boss didn't buy out Luo's Workshop, the whole workshop would've gone bankrupt for certain.”
”Big boss sure is amazing. He managed to bring back Luo's Workshop within just one month and even took down its main competitor, Taste Buds.”
The part-time girls were all gooey-eyed and mushy when they talked about Xiao Luo, and their eyes were filled with the most profound admiration for the man.”
Ma Linger was shocked and stood there staring wide-eyed, in disbelief.
Zhao Mengqi reacted in the same way, but after the initial shock, she slumped into a depression, filled with painful regret that gnawed down to her bones.
”No way, how did Xiao Luo get the money to buy up Luo's Workshop?” Ma Linger asked without lowering her voice.
”We don't know, but it seems that he has an excellent relationship with the boss of Chongshan House, Mr. Chu.”
”Right, I heard about that too. Luo's Workshop was originally taken over by the Chongshan house, and the big boss later bought it off the hands of Mr. Chu.”
”Anyway, these aren't important. The most important thing is the big boss is highly skilled and extremely handsome, whoever can be his partner must be the luckiest woman in the world.”
The part-time girls swooned dreamily.
Does he have a good relationship with Chu Yunxiong from the Chongshan House? How is that even possible?
Ma Linger's mind was a total blank; it was as if a bomb had blown up in her head, leaving nothing behind but an empty void. Chu Yunxiong was an influential businessman who had significant business networks internationally, and to have someone with his stature be friends of Xiao Luo was simply unbelievable.
Wrong, it's all wrong!
She blushed at the thought of her earlier assumption that Xiao Luo was merely clinging on to the daughter from a wealthy family to gain position and fame.
As she looked towards Zhao Mengqi, she saw a lonely figure weighed down by her gloom. She just looked out of the store blankly as tears streamed down the corner of her eyes.
”He did it. Just as he said, he would. One day, everyone will look up to him, and they'll all say, he did it, hahaha…” Zhao Mengqi laughed cynically, mumbling incoherently to herself.
Ma Linger frowned, she empathized with her sister Zhao Mengqi and wished she could do something to make her feel better.
If Zhao Mengqi had not given in to temptation back then, this incredible man would still be by her side. Unfortunately, nothing can be done about that. If it were Ma Linger herself, she would've been so remorseful that she'd probably she could run into a wall and smash herself up!
She walked up and lightly tapped on Zhao Mengqi on her shoulder. She tried to console her friend, and confessed, ”Be happy for him. You know, that $100,000 wasn't from my family. It was from him!”
Paper can't cover fire, and $100,00 wasn't a small amount. In the end, she couldn't hide the lie and decided to confess the truth.
Zhao Mengqi froze on the spot.
...…
7:00 P.M., Xiao Luo, and Zhang Dashan was speed on the road heading towards the Guangming area. Xiao Luo would never forget that he had promised Sun Yu that he would be going to watch her at their Mid-Autumn night festival. His sister, Xiao Ruyi, had already called him a number of times to check on his whereabouts. He wished he could immediately teleport to the festival's location.
After getting off work, Feng Wuhen and his group were also asked to attend, and they followed reluctantly. But a single car couldn't accommodate everyone, so Feng Wuhen everybody off the vehicle, aside from Xiao Wu. As it turned out, he and Xiao Wu, plus Xiao Luo and Zhang Dashan, were the four persons that finally sat in the car. It was to be a comfortable ride.
”Zhang bro, your car is pretty comfortable to sit in.”
Xiao Wu touched the leather seats and began praising Zhang Dashan, ”This must be genuine leather, it feels like it's a woman's skin, smooth and beautiful.”
”Can you g*ddamn shut up for a bit, you took all my lines already so what else am I supposed to say!?” Feng Wuhen slapped him hard at the back of his head.
