“You meant that, once our project is started, it will also suffer the same problem?” Tang Xiu’s brows wrinkled deeply as he faintly asked.
“I’m not 100% sure, but it’s highly likely,” said Jin Xingkui with a wry smile.
Nodding, Tang Xiu was very satisfied that Jin Xingkui told him this issue now. After all, both sides hadn’t truly signed the cooperation contract yet. If he were to hide this issue, it would be quite a hassle once the project launched.
“Let us put away this issue for now. But if this problem arises arises, do let me know, and I’ll solve it.”
With a happy expression, Jin Xingkui rubbed his hands and said, “I had no choice but telling you about this matter, Brother Tang. Please don’t blame me! But if I didn’t tell you in advance, just the construction project itself would be delayed later.”
“I’m glad you told me about this problem now. Anyways, let us not talk about this matter anymore. Give me the measurement data and survey of this site so I can be prepared after I go back,” said Tang Xiu with a smile.
“All right!”
Jin Xingkui motioned for the woman beside him, as she immediately opened her briefcase and handed Tang Xiu a document.
After receiving it, Tang Xiu said, “All right. Then I’ll go back first.”
“Why don’t we lunch together, Brother Tang?” Jin Xingkui quickly asked.
“No, I still have some matters to take care of,” replied Tang Xiu while waving his hand.
Afterward, Tang Xiu drove back to Bluestar Villa Complex. Just after he entered the house, he saw Ouyang Lulu and Zhang Xinya walked from the inside while holding hands. There was a smile on their faces, which evidently showed that their mood was quite pleasant.
“Hello, big star! We were wondering whether you’d come for lunch! Anyways, the meal was personally sent by the Everlasting Feast Hall’s Manager—Chi Nan, and they are already in the dining room!” Said Zhang Xinya with a smile.
After locking the car’s door, Tang Xiu replied with a smile, “Come on. It’s you who is a genuine big star, while my unwarranted reputation was due to a strange combination of circumstances. Besides, I don’t think anyone will remember me after a few days.”
“I dare say it won’t happen,” Zhang Xinya tenderly smiled. “Anyhow, my visit this time is because I’d like to invite you to be the special guest in my concert tomorrow evening.”
“No no no. Please let me out of this, will you?” Tang Xiu hastily waved his hand upon hearing it. “I’m afraid I’ll be in the headlines again the next day if I become the special guest in your concert. These days, I’ve already been living in deep distress, and I’ll really go crazy if things continue this way.”
“I really don’t get it, Tang Xiu. Others would do anything just to become famous. But you’re actually repugnant to becoming famous.” Zhang Xinya tenderly smiled. “Care to tell me the reason?”
“It’s because I like a quiet and tranquil life; I don’t like to be the focus of attention wherever I go. I prefer becoming rich without many disturbances in life,” said Tang Xiu.
“That idea of yours is kind of peculiar, you know.” Zhang Xinya couldn’t help chuckled. “But that’s fine as well. You can still make a big fortune even if you don’t rely on your fame. All right, tycoon Big Boss, shall we have lunch now? I’m afraid the food will become cold if we delay much longer.”
“Then let us eat!” Said Tang Xiu with a faint smile.
Accompanied by both good dishes and beauties, Tang Xiu savored as he eat crisply.
After having eaten and drank to his heart’s content, the two women picked up the leftovers and cleaned up the dishes. Just as Tang Xiu turned on his mobile, he received dozens of SMSs and missed calls’ notifications.
His complexion slightly changed after giving them a cursory look.
Among them were several missed calls and an SMS from Yuan Chuling.
Without a second thought, Tang Xiu dialed Yuan Chuling’s cell number and asked in a heavy voice after the call got through, “What happened? How did you get hurt?”
“Some people came over to make trouble when the fitness center was being renovated, and they were in large numbers. Some of the bastards were very strong; we were unable to beat them,” replied Yuan Chuling bitterly.
“Where are you now?” Asked Tang Xiu in a deep voice.
“Shanghai First Public Hospital,” said Yuan Chuling.
“Tell me your ward number, I’ll coming,” said Tang Xiu.
Immediately afterward, Tang Xiu walked to the dining room and said in a deep voice, “There’s an urgent matter, so I must go out. You can treat this as your house.”
Having said that, he ignored their questioning voices. He went straight to the courtyard, started the car, and drove away. After spending half an hour on the road he arrived at Shanghai First Public Hospital. Though it wasn’t his first time there, and he also knew the President of the hospital, he didn’t call anyone. He went straight to the Inpatient Department’s ward on the 6th floor, where Yuan Chuling was being hospitalized.
