Chapter 606 - Proposal, One Favor Down (1/2)

Lu Jin stared at Linfeng. He was not surprised that this man already had a clear picture of what would happen in the organization.

After all, this man was very nosy.

Linfeng continued. ”If we talked about being just and fair, that small favor is not worth risking her surname and title at all.”

Lu Jin frowned. He was about to refute him when the man spoke again.

”Of course. I know that it is under the business code of every businessman to hold up their end of deal. We are not backing out from our words in owing you a favor. So I am giving this proposal.”

Lu Jin closed his mouth and continued to listen.

Linfeng's obsdian eyes were clear and sharp. No one knew what those eyes were really thinking.

”In the upcoming election for the IAmFashionista's head organizer, my Young Miss will stand neutral and will not vote for anyone's side.”

Xiong Zhi: !!

Lu Jin: !!

The room turned silent.

Linfeng gave everyone time to process what he just said.

Xiong Zhi recovered. She inwardly nodded.

That's right. This was the only choice she could have. She could neither help them nor go against them at this time.

However...

Xiong Zhi felt complicated.

Not doing anything was the same as helping the enemy though, albeit subtly. The upcoming election was extremely important to secure the head organizer position. The legendary families' faction would need all the votes they could get. Refraining to vote for them could be critical.

Lu Jin was silent. His finger tapped on the armrest involuntarily. He contemplated and weighted things.

When he realized that he was tapping his finger again like his father did, he stopped.

After thinking for a while, Lu Jin opened his mouth. ”Do you really mean what you say?” He looked at Xiong Zhi. ”Are you agreeing with his words?”

Xiong Zhi pursed her lips and nodded firmly. ”This is the best answer I can give to you as a favor. I can't join your faction as it is the same as losing my heiress title. But I can't go back on my word as a businessman. This is our final decision.”

Lu Jin was once again silent.

If Xiong Zhi did not sign, then their faction would be in equal number against the legendary families' faction. It was like he was back to square one.

That man would surely be disappointed.

However, it was reassuring as well that at least one person was less a problem.

Lu Jin sighed.

He and his father prepared a back up plan in case he did not find the anonymous person. Lu Jin did not want to use that last choice and wanted to avoid it as much as possible. But seems like, it had to come to this. Although that plan was risky and immoral, it seemed that it was his only choice.

Lu Jin finally decided. ”Alright. I have no choice but to take up on that. Liu Fung, prepare the doc.u.ments.”

”No need. I can prepare them for you in a few minutes.”

Linfeng took his own laptop and sat across Lu Jin.
