The conference room was in chaos.
The winning company was naturally overjoyed, those who lost were sulking, and many others were there for the sake of bidding or colluding; everyone huddled together discussing what to do next.
In the midst of this, the man in the crisp suit looked at Ke Yunan with a smile, calling her "sister-in-law," which baffled her a bit.
"I’m Lu Kebei; I saw you at your wedding to my brother."
"Lu Kebei... Lucki’s younger brother?"
Ke Yunan seed to recall so things; since it was a union between two families and a fake marriage to boot, she went back to the Ke Family, naturally having no interaction with the Lu Family, hence she didn’t rember Lucki’s younger brother’s face.
"Yes, I didn’t expect sister-in-law to be so impressive this ti, securing such a big project, so I’m here to congratulate you. How about it, would you consider a collaboration for the upcoming projects, since after all, the Lu Family and Ke Family are relatives; it’s best not to let the profits flow into strangers’ fields."
Lu Kebei was a foreign-educated student, his deanor and speech were many tis better than that of Lucki.
"No need, you should know very well that and your brother are husband and wife in na only, so it’s best to keep so matters clear, I can manage my projects myself."
Ke Yunan was cold, clearly annoyed by his presumption.
"Nad or not, you are still my Lu Family’s daughter-in-law, and I’ve heard quite a few rumors lately saying you found soone in Jiangning. This could tarnish our family’s reputation."
Although Lu Kebei was still smiling, his eyes glanced towards Lin Fan, making it clear he was referring to their relationship.
"Then perhaps you can explain to how much of an impact your brother’s playboy history has had on our Ke Family?"
Ke Yunan wasn’t one to suffer in silence; she shot back sharply.
"A man’s flirting is rely playing the field, but it’s fundantally different, after all the term ’not staying faithful’ hanging over sister-in-law’s na is very inappropriate!"
Lu Kebei didn’t deny it, as it was undeniable, evident from various gossip magazines.
And with the conversation reaching this point, Lin Fan naturally wouldn’t remain silent, stepped forward, and wrapped his arm around Ke Yunan’s waist saying, "What you an is, officials are allowed to set fires, and your Lu Family lives in the era of Daqing perhaps?"
"Sir, you better watch your manners, hugging and holding my sister-in-law in public, does my Lu Family not exist to you?"
Lu Kebei hadn’t expected Lin Fan to argue with him so openly, and his anger surged.
"You should also watch your behavior; accidents happen frequently here in Red Flag County, be careful not to strain your tongue in the wind."
Lin Fan’s gaze turned icy, and under each other’s gaze, neither showed any intention of backing down.
"Lu Kebei, I, Ke Yunan, need no instruction in my actions. If you can’t stand it, have your brother co over and divorce , I am always ready."
Ke Yunan grabbed Lin Fan’s arm and said, "There are many companies from the province here, let’s not make a big scene. Go back to the hotel and wait for !"
"Alright, as you say!"
Lin Fan nodded, glanced at Lu Kebei, then headed for the side exit, knowing the feud with the Lu Family was now firmly established, but that was nothing new.
Having left the convention center, Lin Fan opened the car door and sat down, only to find Lu Kebei standing in front of the car. However, this ti he had a smile on his face as he opened the passenger door and sat down.
"The Lu Family is bold, blocking here, ready for a proper talk?"
Lin Fan was surprised that Lu Kebei dared to get in his car.
"Of course we need to talk properly, otherwise my trip would have been wasted."
Lu Kebei smiled and placed a card on the console; Lin Fan was about to mock him when he realized it was a mbership card of his tea house, and according to the price he set, it was for custors above one million.
"What do you an by this?"
Lin Fan looked at Lu Kebei perplexedly, having gone directly to the convention center this morning without visiting the tea house.
"It’s just a small token to thank you for giving the opportunity to advance," he said.
Lu Kebei took a cigarette from the dashboard, lit it, took a deep drag, and said, "Although Lucki and I are brothers, we are half-brothers. If you hadn’t set him up to fall into that trap, how could I have had a chance to be involved in this project? So, both morally and logically, you’ve helped , this is a token of my gratitude."
"I didn’t clean up Lucki for you!"
Lin Fan was really baffled by Lu Kebei’s intentions.
"Regardless of your intention, you indeed did a great favor. After all, Lucki’s mother cos from a wealthy family and is legally married up till now, unlike , a son from a lesser house, who almost never had any say. So publicly, I have to uphold the Lu Family’s dignity, but privately, you are a great benefactor to ."
Lu Kebei opened the window, flicked the ash from his cigarette and said, "So rest assured, if the Lu Family ever moves against you, I will definitely find a way to help you, and I hope you can help achieve greater benefits."
