Chapter 121 - Song Xuantins gift (1/2)

The people haven't yet moved on from the bomb that Old Xiong dropped. They just woke up from their gaze after Old Lu announced that Lu Yin Ze would have his shares in the Lu Empire once he turned twenty-one. Old Lu's butler mentioned some lands under Old Lu's name to transfer to Lu Yin Ze. Even the Luxury hotel, now solely belonged to Lu Yin Ze, though the former members would be the same members. He just got the deed.

All the guests knew that Lu Yin Ze was being favored and would be the heir of the Lu Empire without question. Some of the shareholders who supported the first young master secretly gestured to their butlers to report this to the first young master. Now, all the odds are on the second young master's side, if it continues like this, how could they pull the other shareholders and directors on their side? Now, even these shareholders wanted to give up the first young master and hold to the second young master's thigh, they could not do it. They are afraid of a certain man.

In the dim light, in the secluded part of the garden where one could still see the front blue -rose section, Butler Huo's phone keeps vibrating.

He checked the messages. The content was the same as the first message he just checked. They are all telling him that the second young master was being favored and the second young master will get Old Lu's shares, the biggest share in the Lu Empire when the second young master reached twenty-one.

It was bad news for them.

Butler Huo looked at the man beside him. He fearlessly reported this.

”First young master, the other shareholders are shaken. Those who are not been pulled to our side are now betting for the second young master. It will be hard to rope them in in the future.”

The man did not pull off his dark eyes from the figure ahead.

It was a rare scene. A rare scene for him to witness his brother being surrounded by a lot of people. Even without the spotlight, his younger brother shines.

Since he was far away he could not see Lu Yin Ze's expression clearly. Was he happy? Shy? Indifferent? Or like what he had always shown him, cold and disgusted? Scared and loathing?

Even Lu Jin's mind was far away he answered.

”Let them be. Those people could not shake us off. We have a tight grip on them. ” He was not even worried or anxious about it. He was confident. Or to better say, what his father wants, his father could get it, no matter what means.

His focus was on the front again. Even he couldn't see clearly, he knew that his young brother was basking in the glory today.

It was really a rare scene.

'Let him just enjoy it.'

Butler Huo looked at Lu Jin's unreadable face. Since his master was not an ounce worried, why would he? He had been working for him all these years and he knew how exceptional his first young master is. Even without the dirty means, his master could solve the problem right away.

The two continued watching the event from afar.

*****

Gifts after gifts were opened. However, after the four hegemons gift, the other gifts of these wealthy men were not so appealing now. Until an unusual gift was brought to the stage.

Two staff was holding a big rectangular box wrapped in a birthday rapper. It was 2 meters wide and 2.5 meters in length. The guest's eyes were boring into the box. That was so big. What was that? They are all thinking. Then a pretty girl went to the stage. She happily greeted Lu Yin Ze.

”Happy birthday, Yin Ze. Hurry up, open your gift. ” Song Xuantin said with glee.

Lu Yin Ze hesitantly tore up the wrapper. It was not something bad right?

He looked up Song Xuantin's excited expression. He was really doubtful.

' Why is she so excited? '

Lu Yin Ze opened the box with 10-centimeter width. When he touched the edge, he felt the frame.

He guessed it was probably a picture frame. He took out and he was right. He wanted to pull out more but he checked Song Xuantin's expression. Her eyes were now big and shining with anticipation.

Lu Yin Ze was suspicious. Now he was hesitating to take out the picture frame. What if there's a picture of a n.a.k.e.d body there? Or his face when he secretly teared up?

Seeing Lu Yin Ze had stopped taking out the picture, Song Xuantin who was waiting became impatient. She saw his hesitation and told him.

”Don't worry it's not p.o.r.n. There are no ugly faces there. It's a good one. Come one, check it out. ” she persuaded him.

Lu Yin Ze looked at Xiong Zhi.

'Do you know about this?' His silver-blue eyes were asking.

Xiong Zhi shrugged. 'I don't know.'

After some time, Lu Yin Ze finally took it out with the help of his butler.

It was a painting in a picture frame.

When Lu Yin Ze saw the four people in the painting that they seemed alive he was stunned. But when he looks closely, especially to the two people he was struck dumb. He acted fast and put the torn wrapper on the painting. Not allowing others to take more peeks.

”P-put it back. Take care of it. Bring it to the Lu Mansion.” He said while calming his panicked heart. He doesn't know why he was so fl.u.s.tered. He just felt it's inappropriate if someone manages to observe the painting. He would not allow others to see it before analyzing the painting himself.

”So good right? One of our classmates secretly took that picture. I borrow it and let the experts paint it. I told the painter to focus-” Song Xuantin exhilarated told Lu Yin Ze the process of her gift when she was cut off.

”Can you tell me who's the classmate who took the picture later?” Lu Yin Ze asked quietly to Song Xuantin.

”Oh sure. Why? Do you want to see the others?”

”There are others?” Lu Yin Ze was taken aback. There are secretly taking pictures of them?
