In the room, Chen Song stared blankly at the balance on his mobile banking app.
To this day, he still found it hard to believe.
One sentence.
And the money was transferred directly?
"What are you doing? Let's go sing."
At this moment, Li Hansheng, who was responsible for calling people, came over to urge him: "Where's Lu Yuan?"
Chen Song finally snapped back to reality and recounted what had just happened, his voice trembling with excitement.
"What are you thinking? Fifty thousand isn't pocket change. Maybe Lu Yuan was just messing with you." Li Hansheng, who had been a bit resentful of Lu Yuan for stealing the spotlight, spoke up, cautioning Chen Song and advising him not to believe it.
"No way."
Chen Song said, "Because classmate Lu really transferred me a deposit of thirty thousand."
As soon as these words were spoken, Li Hansheng was completely stunned.
Thirty thousand transferred on a whim, and that was already the price of his BMW outside.
And at the same time.
Zhou Yunqiong also saw this scene.
However, her gaze was fixed in the direction Lu Yuan had left, lost in thought.
At the hotel entrance.
Lu Yuan had just walked out when he felt his phone vibrate.
There were two messages, sent by different people.
Rongsheng Real Estate Manager Zhang: "Hello, Mr. Lu, the contract for the farm you purchased has been signed."
Lawyer Wang: "Mr. Lu, Longhu Mountain has accepted your ten million donation and invites you to come and select a Lay Disciple Dojo at your convenience as a token of their gratitude."
All settled?
Seeing this.
A smile appeared on Lu Yuan's face.
Although the process wasn't entirely smooth, it had ultimately worked out.
Then, without further thought, he prepared to head to the parking lot.
"Lu Yuan."
However, a clear, cool voice sounded from behind him.
Turning his head, he saw that Zhou Yunqiong had also come out at some point, accompanied by the man who was Uncle Zuo.
"Is there something you need?" Lu Yuan stopped, not choosing to ignore her.
After all, this woman was no ordinary person.
"It's nothing."
Zhou Yunqiong stepped forward, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, drawing admiring glances from passersby.
She was indeed too beautiful, attracting attention wherever she went. However, the presence of Uncle Zuo beside her completely deterred any passersby from daring to approach and strike up a conversation.
Zhou Yunqiong paid no mind to this, merely saying softly, "It's been a year since graduation, and you've changed a lot compared to before."
"Likewise. You never would have approached me first back then," Lu Yuan replied indifferently.
Upon hearing this, her expression shifted slightly.
But she quickly returned with a smile and said, "Who could say otherwise?"
For Zhou Yunqiong, since birth, almost everyone had revolved around her. Her words, her attitude, were never ignored, and even her parents doted on her, treating her as their prized jewel.
She also reveled in this feeling, having been this way since childhood.
In her worldview.
She could ignore others, but no one could ignore her.
Just like today, Lu Yuan, who had cared so much about her during college, now adopting this attitude made Zhou Yunqiong feel somewhat unaccustomed.
So, she had ultimately decided to come out, wanting to see if his change was genuine or just a tactic.
"If there's nothing else, then I'll be going."
Lu Yuan could sense her intentions but had no interest, he said.
This action finally made Zhou Yunqiong frown, but she was adept at concealing her emotions: "Actually, I always knew your family background was very good, even excellent. The reason I didn't agree to you in college was simply because I felt we weren't people from the same world."
At this moment, Zhou Yunqiong was desperately trying to regain the upper hand, proactively bringing up college matters.
And Lu Yuan's family background was naturally something she couldn't hide.
In other words.
It couldn't be hidden from the Wuzhou Group behind her.
"Are you done talking? Can I go?"
Lu Yuan really didn't want to listen to the other party's nonsense and had nothing to say. He turned around and prepared to leave.
After the global anomaly, he had struggled at the bottom for ten years, experiencing all sorts of brutality. Such emotions had long since faded.
"Lu Yuan!"
Finally, Zhou Yunqiong couldn't control her emotions and directly said, "I just want to give you one piece of advice: live your life well in the days to come. There will be many changes in the future, and everything will become unfamiliar, no longer the way you know it."
"Miss."
But before she could continue speaking.
Uncle Zuo, who was beside her, suddenly stepped forward and silently shook his head.
And Lu Yuan?
He didn't stop his steps and continued forward.
However, he had heard everything Zhou Yunqiong had just said.
So, some people have already grasped, or even confirmed, that the global anomaly is happening. The Zhou Family is one of them.
And this group of people might have been preparing in secret for a long time, accumulating strength.
Lu Yuan pondered in his heart. From those words just now, he had gleaned a lot.
The Zhou Family, and the Wuzhou Group behind them, were extremely mysterious. In his previous life, he had only thought of them as an ordinary group enterprise. But after the anomaly, Wu Zhou rose rapidly, and the Zhou Family produced outstanding individuals, shaking the world and proving unfathomably deep.
He had originally thought that the Zhou Family achieved this status through the resources of the Wuzhou Group.
But it seemed that was not the case. Otherwise, Zhou Yunqiong wouldn't have said those words just now.
And Lu Yuan guessed that mysterious forces like the Zhou Family were not uncommon, both domestically and even globally.
Of course.
He felt no worry or fear about these things.
Because he himself possessed a powerful advantage that no one else had: a clear understanding of how subsequent events would unfold.
Lu Yuan knew exactly where the good things were, where the treasures were, and where the opportunities for fortune lay.
As long as he grasped all of this.
What Zhou Family?
What major powers?
He could face them all without fear, with confidence!
So Lu Yuan said nothing, got into the car, and drove away from the hotel.
"Miss, you revealed a bit too much just now."
At this moment, Uncle Zuo couldn't help but say helplessly.
"I lost my composure."
Hearing this, Zhou Yunqiong nodded, took a deep breath, and completely calmed down.
The next moment, she transformed back into her previous aloof and distant demeanor.
"Miss, I don't quite understand why you wanted to meet with these people. Although they are classmates, so what? You are ultimately different from them. Your Bloodline is the most potent our Zhou Family has cultivated for generations. Once the time is right, you will immediately become a Daughter of Heaven."
Uncle Zuo thought for a moment and continued, "As for those people in the hotel, it's even a question whether they can survive in the future."
"Even if they survive, the gap between them and you will only grow larger and become incalculable."
He spoke with a tone of superiority.
"I know that, of course."
Zhou Yunqiong smiled and extended her arm.
In the sunlight, it actually emitted a faint golden glow, appearing somewhat dreamlike.
However, as she retracted her hand, everything that had just happened disappeared completely. She then turned to look at the hotel and said softly, "I was just bored recently."
Hearing this, Uncle Zuo chuckled. But as his phone vibrated, he glanced at a message and his expression immediately changed slightly.
"Miss, a place among the land the family head instructed you to buy has been snatched up by someone else."
"Is that so?"
Zhou Yunqiong was also a little surprised and asked, "Where?"
"That farm on the outskirts of Wuzhou City."
