Chapter 316: Louise's Other Identity
"Smack!"
Zhou Huasheng was so angry that he slapped the man on the top of his head again and growled, "That's the legitimate granddaughter of the John family. Do you expect me to get tough with her? Why don't you just tell me to go lie on the tracks and commit suicide?!"
The realization infuriated Zhou Huasheng instantly. His flunky must be an idiot, suggesting he use force on the John family's legitimate granddaughter. That was practically sending himself to his death!
Finally, the man hunched over slightly and said, "Young Master, you've misunderstood me. I mean, we could take a more circuitous approach..."
Zhou Huasheng immediately looked around to see if there was anyone nearby, then pulled the man into a small corner and whispered, "Explain in detail."
The man lowered his voice and said, "Young Master, Miss Louise isn't your average girl. Conquering her is no small feat. If she's so compliant with Xu Hao, he must have something on her, or perhaps Miss Louise needs something from Xu Hao..."
The man didn't continue because he understood that saying only half was enough; saying more would displease Zhou Huasheng.
Zhou Huasheng had an epiphany. His lackey was making perfect sense, and he had overlooked this point. He immediately said, "So, to conquer Miss Louise is actually quite simple. We either remove whatever leverage Xu Hao has over her or help Miss Louise resolve her issue. Am I right?"
"Young Master, you are brilliant! You're absolutely right!" the man quickly flattered Zhou Huasheng.
Zhou Huasheng began to feel self-satisfied. In terms of appearance, he also considered himself handsome and dashing. Regarding wealth, he was rolling in it, certainly no worse than Xu Hao. As for eloquence, he was gentle and refined when speaking, far better than Xu Hao's pretentious coldness and arrogance.
With these thoughts, Zhou Huasheng immediately said, "Investigate for me! I want to know everything about Miss Louise's experiences since coming to Huaya, every little detail, especially her interactions with Xu Hao!"
"Young Master, you are wise. I'll do it right away!"
The man promptly straightened up and responded respectfully.
But inwardly, the man couldn't help but feel contemptuous; such a simple matter, yet Zhou Huasheng couldn't figure it out on his own. How foolish!
He was only living the high life because he was born to a good father.
Someone like Xu Hao, with a family of power and influence, had his own talents!
His formidable Kung Fu, his medical skills—they left Zhou Huasheng far behind!
Regrettably, for the sake of his livelihood, the man could only grumble in his heart while his face showed nothing but compliments for Zhou Huasheng.
Zhou Huasheng was very pleased with himself. He felt exceptionally clever, believing he had grasped Xu Hao's lifeline. He thought his plan to conquer Miss Louise was already in the bag.
In another corner, Wu Yihan witnessed all these events. Although he didn't know what Zhou Huasheng and his flunky were discussing, he sensed it would be bad for Xu Hao. He hurriedly made a phone call to inform Xu Hao about it.
Xu Hao didn't seem to care, uttering just a few words before hanging up.
...
Although Louise had driven herself to the place, it was clear she had no intention of driving back herself. Instead, she got into the passenger seat of Xu Hao's car.
Xu Hao frowned slightly but ultimately didn't ask her to leave.
Xiao Lan was somewhat unhappy about sitting in the back, her expression like that of a child whose toy had been taken away.
Louise smiled and said, "Sister Xiao Lan, don't be upset. I have business to discuss with Mr. Xu later. I have no intention of taking away your Superman Big Brother."
Xiao Lan huffed, her face reddening. "It's Superman Big Brother, not Superman Brother. And whether you take him or not, it has nothing to do with me. I only met him today."
Louise didn't continue to tease Xiao Lan and instead said, "I'm also aware of the orphanage you belong to. I'll be sending someone to donate one million in the next few days as a little gesture from me."
One million!
Xiao Lan sat up straight, her face brimming with surprise, "Really? Miss Louise, I love you to death! With your and Superman Big Brother's donations, our orphanage can expand and take in more kids. But how did you know about our orphanage?"
Louise smiled and replied, "I have another identity, a philanthropist. I currently sponsor five orphanages, investing tens of millions of Mi Coins annually. So when I came to Huadu, I had someone investigate the orphanages here, including yours."
As Xu Hao drove, he suddenly said, "Even with an expansion, Aunt Meng probably wouldn't want the new kids to live together with the current ones."
"Ah? Why? I think it's great for the kids to play together!" Xiao Lan asked with a puzzled face. In her eyes, the happiest thing was to ensure every child had a joyful day.
Louise also looked at Xu Hao with some confusion. She knew that Aunt Meng, whom Xu Hao mentioned, was the head of the orphanage. But why would Meng Jiu possibly do that?
