Chen Mengyun's "Old Ailment"

Only then did Huo Wenting realize she had been played.

Liao Heng froze. He did not understand.

The olive branch Huo Wenting had extended... this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Between Leng Qingqiu and Huo Wenting, there should not have been any hesitation over whom to choose!

Everything Leng Qingqiu had, Huo Wenting had too. Everything Leng Qingqiu did not have, Huo Wenting had!

Even if it was just a business alliance, having a history with Huo Wenting would mean that as long as the Lu Family seized this opportunity, its wealth could truly explode within a few years!

Forget companies like Thousand Peaks and Houde... even those old geezers in the provincial capital would end up as Lu Chengwen's loyal hounds.

To anyone, this was an absurdly easy choice.

Even the Three Elders believed that a profiteer like Lu Chengwen would definitely go with the flow when faced with such an opportunity, forge ties with the Huo Family, and use the Huo Family's name to build momentum for himself in Northern Country.

Huo Wenting looked at Lu Chengwen. "Lu Chengwen, you're humiliating me."

"You're the one humiliating me."

Lu Chengwen walked over to Leng Qingqiu, who naturally handed him his coffee.

Lu Chengwen took a sip, smiling as he pinched Leng Qingqiu's cheek. "The coffee my baby makes is just delicious."

"Drink less. It's bad for your health."

"Mm."

Lu Chengwen looked at Huo Wenting.

"Eldest Daughter, I know the Huo Family is rich, and I know you're impressive. But that doesn't have much to do with me."

"Maybe the biggest connection is that if you really went all out, even if all of our families joined together, we still might not be able to beat you. But!"

Lu Chengwen said excitedly, "Your main battlefield isn't here. Stop fooling around."
