Chapter 290: 288, Too enthusiastic, need to replenish
Around ten o'clock at night, Duanmu Yunji fell into a deep sleep. Luofeng silently began to think.
Could it be? Is this the special reward?
Judging from the recent situation, her mentality had indeed undergone some changes. She had become genuinely much more enthusiastic.
Luofeng walked to the living room, sat down on the sofa, and checked the information sent by the Zhongyi Tang Company for a while. Afterward, he popped up in the chat group.
"'Guys, anyone up for a late-night snack? Who's in for some large kidneys?'"
After Luofeng sent out the message, his three buddies immediately replied.
"'Damn it, were you drained dry by your sister-in-law?'"
"'I didn't have dinner. I reckon Brother Feng is as thin as a rake. Should we get you something to build you up?'"
"'No problem. Is it the usual place for skewers?'"
"'[Location Share]! Gather up!'"
"'Let's hit the road! Skewers!'"
Luofeng sent a message, leaving a note for Duanmu Yunji, then drove to the destination.
Luofeng was the last to arrive.
"'Come on, Brother Feng! We ordered several large kidneys. You especially need to eat more later!' Lin Xiaoyun immediately called out as Luofeng arrived."
Luofeng was rendered speechless. He truly had no energy to make complaints.
Duanmu Yunji had been particularly proactive and enthusiastic today. Luofeng had engaged in two professional-level performances and one normal performance. There was also one instance of Duanmu Yunji taking the lead, and another where Luofeng simply lay back like a 'Salted Fish'.
So, I need to eat more large kidneys later? No problem, right?
"'Luofeng, did you see the messages we sent in the group?'"
"'Yes, I saw them,' Luofeng answered Chen Dali. 'Thanks, everyone, for the support.'"
"'You're being modest. It's mutually beneficial, as it should be!' Li Bo Kai said. 'By the way, Brother Feng, what's our next move?'"
"'Emmm,' Luofeng pondered for a moment. 'You guys handle the local and peripheral issues; I'll deal with Zhou Xiaofeng. By the way, prepare to register a company. This company will hold the ownership of the gold mine.'"
Zhou Xiaofeng, of course, was from the Zhou Family—the owner of the gold mine in the Rainbow Region.
Chen Dali said, "'No problem. Our three families have already started handling this. Once you confirm Zhou Xiaofeng's situation, we can take care of all the issues.'"
Luofeng nodded. "'This matter can be resolved tomorrow. First, let's think about a name for the company that will hold the gold mine. Do you have any suggestions?'"
Regarding Zhou Xiaofeng, Luofeng had already arranged for his Zhongyi Tang Company bodyguards to handle it; there would definitely be results by tomorrow.
"'Since our four families are uniting for this, how about we call it The Big Four Happiness?'"
"'Ugh!' Luofeng was suddenly at a loss for words."
The Big Four Happiness? Why not Minor Three Yuan? Or Grand Slam? Have they been playing the slot machines too much?
"'Since we're cooperating on this, how about the Co-Win Golden Group? What do you think?' Chen Dali suggested."
"'Cooperation Win-Win has already been registered,' Li Bo Kai said dejectedly, checking his phone."
"'There's one more thing I must mention,' Luofeng spoke up. 'The shares should be in your three individual names, not your families' names. After all, I only know you three. I forgot to bring this up.'"
"'Damn, thank you, Brother Luo Feng!' Li Bo Kai immediately exclaimed, pressing his palms together in gratitude. 'Let me tell you, if you hadn't mentioned it, my dad would definitely have registered the company under my two older brothers' names.'"
"'Same here,' Lin Xiaoyun chimed in. 'I'm not considered very reliable at home, so it probably wouldn't be under my name.'"
However, just then, a voice sounded from the side, "'Well, if it isn't Spinach?'"
"'Heh, Chen Ergou?' Li Bo Kai turned his head to look. 'Get the hell away from me! I get annoyed just seeing you.'"
"'Who are you using that 'Laozi' tone with? Have you no manners?'"
Another voice chimed in. Li Bo Kai's face immediately darkened, but he didn't retort.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyun quietly explained, "'That's Li Boshui, Spinach's older brother. There's some history there.'"
Really a problem? Luofeng glanced over; it didn't seem like it.
"'He's just a bookworm, the kind that's studied himself silly,' Lin Xiaoyun explained."
"'Li Bo Kai, what are you doing messing around with these worthless friends again? Don't you know you should be studying hard?' Li Boshui scolded."
"'Li Boshui, what do you mean by that?' Lin Xiaoyun retorted defensively. 'Who are you calling worthless friends? Let me tell you, don't push me, or I'll slap you.'"
"'What are you getting so cocky about, Lin Xiaoyun?' Chen Ergou immediately interjected."
"'Chen Bolin, has your scar healed so quickly you've forgotten the pain?' Chen Dali stood up."
"'Chen Bolin, Brother Li Er, are you here for a late-night snack?' Luofeng looked at the two men and extended an invitation. 'Why not join us for a chat?'"
Chen Bolin chuckled. "'I'm afraid those two wouldn't welcome me.' Luofeng indicated it was fine."
Chen Bolin had previously thought Luofeng was just a White Glove for the three families. But later, it became clear that Luofeng was Awesome.
"'Brother Shui, take a seat,' Chen Bolin invited."
"'Hmm!' Li Boshui glared at his younger brother and then sat down."
"'Chen Bolin, Brother Li Er, don't be polite. Order whatever you like,' Luofeng offered."
The three friends were a bit taken aback by Luofeng's cordiality, but they chose to remain quiet and observe.
"'I, for one, love kidneys,' Chen Bolin chuckled and started eating."
Li Boshui, however, made no move to eat, his gaze fixed on Li Bo Kai.
"'I'm curious about something. Why did you fall out with Wu Fanyu's family?' Luofeng asked."
"'You're asking something you already know!' Chen Bolin laughed."
"'Was that necessary?' Luofeng countered."
"'Some people don't know their place. They make outrageous demands and treat everyone else like fools,' Chen Bolin chuckled."
"'So?'"
"'So, we had to cut them out. Then we happened to meet you, and we happened to know you were capable. Plus, Wu Yufan was a bit out of his league. See? Isn't it all just perfect, as if arranged by heaven?' Chen Bolin said."
"'Interesting. But in my opinion, you guided all of this from behind the scenes, pushing him into the abyss step by step?' Luofeng smiled."
"'But in the end, wasn't it his own choice?' Chen Bolin said. 'Actually, I never expected him to be that bold. Believe it or not, that's truly how it was.'"
"'Of course, I believe you,' Luofeng said. 'You're someone who plays by the rules. Otherwise, you'd have been long gone, right?'"
"'Thank you for the compliment,' Chen Bolin smiled."
"'So, why did you come looking for us today?' Luofeng asked."
In this situation, who would believe it was a chance encounter?
"'I just like talking to smart people. Name your price,' Chen Bolin said."
"'Do you think we'll give up?' Luofeng chuckled. 'Are their three families inferior to yours? Or do you think I don't have the necessary intelligence? Or perhaps, you've already beaten us to it?'"
