After a night of ferntation, the news that Luo Group had secured a contract with Tian Sheng Group spread throughout Jiangling City in an instant; together with Old Lady Luo’s high-profile announcent of hosting a banquet, nearly all peers in the construction industry were discussing it.
By four o’clock in the afternoon, the Luo Family was still busily preparing for the evening banquet.
At this ti, outside the gates of the Luo Family Villa, quite a few guests had already gathered, unable to wait until seven in the evening and thus arriving early.
Fortunately, although the Luo Family Villa was sowhat outdated, the area was large, featuring a garden inside the main gate.
The majority of the early guests had been arranged by Luo Yuantu and his son to rest in the garden.
Wang Qiang also arrived early with his father, Wang Baoguo. Ever since Tian Sheng Group had ordered a ban on them yesterday, Wang Baoguo had sought nurous connections to diate, but Tian Sheng Group was impervious, giving him no opportunity to explain.
Luckily, his son’s fiancée was a mber of the Luo Family, and upon hearing that the Luo Family had obtained the Tian Sheng Group contract and that President Ling Yuzhu would personally attend the Luo Family banquet, Wang Baoguo imdiately prepared a generous gift, hoping to take this opportunity at the Luo Family banquet to speak with President Ling.
Arriving at the gate, Wang Baoguo and his son saw Luo Xuanran, dressed in a blue Armani suit, looking radiant.
As usual, Wang Qiang hurried forward to greet him, "Big brother."
Hearing the familiar call, Luo Xuanran turned his head, and the smile on his face gradually cooled, "It’s Wang Qiang."
That afternoon, as he chatted with so guests, he had already learned about the complete ban on Qiangwei Building Materials Plaza, and now with the Wang Family business plumting, many had disassociated themselves from the Wang Family. Wang Qiang coming at this ti was certainly not for anything good.
Detecting the change in the other’s deanor, Wang Qiang frowned slightly but still managed to squeeze out a smile, "Yes, big brother."
"I heard the Luo Family signed with Tian Sheng Group, a contract worth sixty million?"
Luo Xuanran, hands behind his back, pride written all over his face as if the deal was signed by him said, "Yes, just sixty million, and there are several hundred million more in contracts down the line."
Although his words were pure bragging, Wang Qiang actually believed them.
In his eyes, Tian Sheng Group favored Luo Group on the first day of bidding, and President Ling Yuzhu was even attending the banquet in person.
What did that indicate? It indicated that Ling Yuzhu thought highly of Luo Group.
However, what he failed to understand was how, just two days ago, he and the siblings Luo Xuanran and Luo Zitong had together been kicked out of Tian Sheng Group, and now in just a couple of days, Luo Group was buddy-buddy with Tian Sheng?
"Xuanran, this ti my son and I ca to discuss with your grandmother and father about the marriage between Qiang and Zi Tong. You know they’ve been together for over two years; it’s ti to settle it," said Wang Baoguo, coming forward with a smile. He was a clever man, not ntioning the issue of eting President Ling but instead shifting to family matters between the two families.
Hearing Wang Baoguo’s words, Luo Xuanran scoffed internally. When our Luo Family was doing so-so, you barely deigned to give us the ti of day, but now that your Wang Family is in trouble and Luo Group is flourishing, you’re cozying up to us.
What a lovely dream you have there!
Heh, but Grandma’s even shrewder. She made a decision long ago not to form a marriage alliance with the Wang Family.
"Ahem..." Luo Xuanran cleared his throat lightly and said with a chuckle, "Uncle, let’s put aside the marriage of Zi Tong and Ah Qiang for now."
Put it aside?
Wang Baoguo sensed the undertone imdiately and his tone turned colder, "Luo Xuanran, what do you an? Just last month, your parents ca to our Wang Family and didn’t say that!"
Last month, when Luo Zitong discovered she was pregnant, an anxious Luo Yuantu brought his wife and daughter to visit, hoping to settle the marriage as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, at that ti, Wang Baoguo couldn’t care less about the Luo Family, rely giving them lip service.
"What do I an?" Luo Xuanran scoffed, "Uncle, as if you aren’t aware. Let tell you straight—Grandma has decided to have Zi Tong abort the child. From today on, our Zi Tong and your Wang Qiang will be completely severed!"
Like a bombshell, Wang Qiang was utterly dumbfounded, "You... what did you say? Zi Tong wants to abort the child? And break up with ?"
"How is that possible? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Luo Xuanran crossed his arms and spoke disdainfully, "How is it not possible? Haven’t you thought about it, what’s the situation of your Wang Family now, what’s your status, and you’re still delusional about marrying our Zi Tong?"
During the conversation, Luo Xuanran pointedly gestured toward Luo Zitong in the garden, who was being fawned over by a group of rich second generations.
As the news of Luo Group’s contract with Tian Sheng Group spread, many rich second generations in Jiangling City ca to attend the Luo Family banquet. Although Luo Zitong’s looks didn’t quite rival Luo Ning’s stunning beauty, she was still above average in appearance, and being unwed, imdiately beca the pursued object of these wealthy young n upon appearing.
Seeing his fiancée laughing and chatting non-stop with other n, Wang Qiang’s rage boiled over. He dashed over in a flash and bellowed, "Luo Zitong! You shaless woman! Over the past two years, I’ve bought you branded clothes and bags, taken you to five-star hotels for all sorts of dining and entertainnt. For your grandma’s seventieth birthday, I specially spent eight hundred thousand on a South Sea Pearl Necklace!"
"Now look at you, betraying as soon as you cross the bridge. Don’t you think today I’ll ruin you!"
